Chapter 312 Occupational Habits

In a brightly lit manor in Beverly Hills, the "Godfather 3" start-up celebration party is being held lively. By the swimming pool outside the villa, a middle-aged man in his 40s with a fat and somewhat bald figure is dancing towards him. The brunette beside her said something.

"At that time, I served as Mr. Coppola's assistant for two consecutive "The Godfather", and the position was equivalent to the assistant director. You know, I was only in my early thirties, and I can be an assistant director at the age of thirty in Hollywood. It's an easy thing. In the following years, I also kept in touch with Mr. Coppola. Mr. Coppola was the investor of my film. He was very optimistic about my script. Therefore, Kang Miss Nally, as long as you can act well, I promise you will be transformed this time."

Although Jennifer Connelly was a little impatient in her heart, she didn't dare to show it. Since she lost the role of the girl in "Dark War" last year, her agent Jim Lester has stopped focusing on the main focus. On her, and because of this, she hasn't gotten any roles for a year.

If she continues to drag on like this, maybe she will be completely forgotten by Hollywood. Whenever she thinks of this possibility, she will feel a strong sense of unease. After leaving Hollywood, what else can she do? Won't.

Find a man to marry and be a full-time housewife. Although she can accept this choice, she is not willing to live a boring life that cares about firewood, rice, oil and salt. Even if she gets married, she hopes to live a richer life.

But among the people she knew,

The only person who can bring her this kind of life is the one in front of her, who is forty or fifty years old and has a certain level of qualifications in Hollywood. Not to mention that these people are usually about the same age as her father, and. In Hollywood, these people's marriages are also the most unreliable, and she might be dumped at some point. At that time, when I was older, my beauty was no longer there. What should she do?

"Hello, Miss Connery, are you listening to me?"

Just a little distracted, the girl soon heard a faintly displeased voice in her ear, and quickly recovered herself and smiled: "Sorry, Mr. Brandt."

Tony Brandt was very satisfied with the girl's attitude. He glanced at the bulging chest that the girl held up high in the black dress, and the man said, "Miss Connery. You are distracted on such a solemn occasion. It's a very rude thing, those big people will not be so generous to me, oh, Mr. Coppola came out, and Al Pacino, that... seems to be his nephew, Nicolas Cage."

Jennifer Connelly also saw several people walking out of the villa talking and laughing all the way. The bearded man with glasses in the middle was obviously Francis Coppola. Everyone who was chatting in the yard gathered to greet each other.

"Miss Connery, let's go and say hello." Tony Brandt said, raising his arms slightly.

Jennifer Connelly hesitated, but still held the man's arm. Go to Francis Coppola.

Coming to the vicinity of Francis Coppola, after waiting for the previous group to leave, Tony Brandt quickly let go of Jennifer Connelly and walked towards Coppola with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Coppola, congratulations on directing the final installment of The Godfather, which I'm sure will be a hit again."

"Thank you, Tony, how's your movie?" Francis Coppola and Tony Brandt shook hands and asked casually.

"It's almost time to start. Oh, here's the heroine I picked. Miss Jennifer Connelly, she was in Sir Sergio Lionel's Once Upon a Time in America. That little girl Deborah, no I know if you still remember."

Francis Coppola looked up and down at Jennifer Connelly, as if he was examining an object. For these Hollywood tycoons, it was impossible for them to be amazed by any beauty.

Being scrutinized by this kind of gaze, the girl who wanted to greet Francis Coppola suddenly felt restrained and uneasy. The right hand that was about to be raised also drooped down, and she squeezed the hem of the dress cramped.

"Well, it's not bad, it's just a little too beautiful, Tony, your movie is a drama, and it's not a good thing for the heroine to be too beautiful."

Tony Brandt was about to speak when Francis Coppola waved his hand and said, "Of course, that's a movie you've been preparing for a long time, so it's up to you to choose the heroine, and I won't interfere."

"No, no, Mr. Coppola, if it weren't for you, I still don't know where I got the investment, and you don't know how much better your eyesight is than mine. If you don't think it's appropriate, I will be cautious. considerate."

Hearing Tony Brandt say this, the girl opened her mouth slightly and looked at Francis Coppola. The fingers holding the hem of the skirt trembled because of the force, and she felt even more aggrieved. The role she finally won, just because these people's casual words are going to waste, and in an instant, she can't wait for these big people to be dragged into hell.

Francis Coppola just happened to see Connery's face, Coppola patted Tony Brandt on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Don't be like this, Tony, I'm just casually saying that this little girl is not bad. Yes, if you replace her, I don't know how many times she will curse me secretly."

"How is it possible, Miss Connery admires you very much, we were just talking about your movie," Tony Brandt said quickly, and gently poked the girl standing beside him, Jennifer Connelly endured He twitched his little nose and was about to speak up, but Francis Coppola had already taken Al Pacino and Nicolas Cage to other places.

"Frank, who was that person just now, I really want to meet him somewhere," Al Pacino asked after the three people walked away.

Francis Coppola said casually: "When filming the first two parts of "The Godfather", he was my assistant, so you will have the impression. There are occasional contacts over the years, and some time ago he planned to shoot a movie himself , come to me, I can't save face, so I helped him introduce a few investors."

Al Pacino thought for a while, but he still couldn't think of Tony Lambert, so he forgot about it.

Seeing that Nicolas Cage, who was standing on the other side of Francis Coppola, was still looking at the door relentlessly, Al Pacino said with a smile: "Okay, Nick, as I said earlier, Eric rarely He doesn't like this kind of occasion for a party. You better prepare for the audition. As long as your performance can satisfy Eric, and you are a child of the Coppola family, I believe Eric will definitely I will give you the hero of "The Ghost Story"."

Hearing Al Pacino suddenly mentioning Eric, Francis Coppola also showed an expression of emotion: "Speaking of which, many people thought that the little guy couldn't survive the turmoil some time ago, but I didn't expect that. In the end, not only was he safe, but Michael Eisner suffered a loss and handed over a script. Al, you have worked with Eric Williams, what kind of person do you think he is?"

Al Pacino thought for a while, then shook his head gently: "I can't tell. At the end of the year before last, I had just come back to perform a play on Broadway, and Eric came to me. In a coffee shop, he When he told me about his script, I found that there was nothing special about it. I was going to refuse, but then the little guy told me about the script of "Smell the Fragrance and Know a Woman" with confidence, and then I found that I was moved, and soon Came to L.A. with him. If I had to tell him, he was... very mature, far beyond the maturity of his peers. When you get along with him, you will soon forget that you are in front of a less than 20-year-old man. Young people at the age of 2, on the contrary, seem to be chatting with their peers."

"Let's put it this way, I also want to meet this miraculous young man," Francis Coppola said with a smile: "It seems that Steven has contacted him and wants to get "Jurassic Park" The right to adapt, but it was rejected by the little guy, haha, in Hollywood, there are not many people who can make Steven defy."

"He definitely has this qualification now," Al Pacino also said with a smile.

Francis Coppola was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yeah, he does have this qualification, maybe in a few years, Hollywood's Big Seven will become Big Eight, I really don't know how he created it. With so many hot-selling films, Firefly’s films accounted for half of the top 10 box office last year, which is truly jaw-dropping.”

The three of them were talking when they saw a commotion at the entrance of the manor from a distance.

...

"Fami, why do you look a little cramped, doesn't the dress fit?" When driving to the Coppola family estate, Eric glanced at Famke Jensen, who was sitting in the co-pilot. , asked curiously.

At this time, the girl was wearing a rose-colored one-shoulder corseted evening dress, and her hair was pulled into a bun. Although she just put on a simple layer of makeup, it was still better than when Eric first saw the girl in the afternoon. How much prettier.

"No, it's nothing, it's just a professional habit," Famke Jansen said embarrassedly, and finally put his hands on his knees relaxed.

"Professional habits?" Eric was even more curious.

"Yeah," the girl smiled awkwardly and explained, "I used to go to a fashion show, and all the clothes I wore were made by the designers. If they accidentally break, we little models can't afford to pay. , so I can't wait to take it off immediately after walking down the runway." (To be continued)
