The first update today, please recommend, please subscribe!

If you think about Evan Bell's past experiences carefully, it is not difficult to find that Evan Bell was originally an adventurous person. In life, extreme sports such as backpacking, mountain climbing, and bungee jumping were originally Evan Bell's hobbies; As for the selection of works, not to mention, every choice of Evan Bell's works can be said to be full of personality, but to explain it from another angle, it is an adventure. ***

This time the fire itself is not very serious, because the personnel have already evacuated the scene before the fire has fully spread, and the economic losses are also controllable without casualties. However, after the fire broke out, Evan Bell's commanding ability on the scene became the focus of everyone's discussion. Then it spread to Evan Bell's adventurous personality, and it got out of hand: because there are so many things that can be discussed, the Internet has been buzzing and lively for a while.

Who would have thought that in a fire incident, the image of Evan Bell's "strong man" actually became a lot taller, and the fans' heated discussions aside, and Sean Mayer's action movie script actually has a lot more , which made me cry a little bit.

However, despite the heated discussions on the Internet, Evan Bell did not make any public appearances, but Teddy Bell held a press conference to report on the situation of the fire. And Evan Bell joined "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" and began Captain Jack Sparrow's second sailing "" journey.

In fact, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" is also the focus of attention this time. Because of the conflict between Jerry Bruckheimer and Evan Bell, coupled with the existence of the "tyrant" Michael Enas, the media almost thought that it was a sure thing for Evan Bell and Disney to break up. Captain Jack Sparrow's future after the change of actor suddenly became confusing. But to everyone's surprise, Disney and Evan Bell actually unified the caliber and showed surprising unity.

The most unexpected result of the matter was: Jerry Bruckheimer and Michael Inas chose to compromise. These two powerful bosses lowered their heads in front of Evan Bell. Of course, industry analysis is mainly because Disney is now facing a breaking point. "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" is almost an obvious money printing machine. Although Michael Enas is arbitrary, he is not willing to let this money printing machine become a heavy object on his neck, so he chose a wise approach. ***Adding Evan Bell's own request is not excessive. So the two sides came to an agreement.

Now, Evan Bell is back in action again, playing Captain Jack Sparrow for the second time, and what changes will be made to the script that has previously become the focus of attention has also become the object of media attention. but. Everything is unknown now, and everyone will know the result only after the filming is completed and it is released.

Evan Bell joined the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2". disappeared. The crew itself is constantly getting news, the biggest of which is. The 300 million "Pirates of the Caribbean" film crew for the second and third films has solved a huge job problem for Hollywood extras. Because the show needs a lot of extras. So the crew held an open call.

It took only three days for the recruitment announcement to be posted, and more than 5,000 people signed up. When the open recruitment was officially held, 12,000 people participated in this interview. The unprecedented spectacle of the huge crowds is a spectacle that Hollywood has never seen before. Almost all the extras are vying to become pirates, and a generous and stable salary is one of their willingness. At the same time, the movie will go to the Caribbean Sea to shoot on the spot, and work during the game, which is not a big pie every day.

In addition, the cast members responsible for recruiting actors made very strange requirements for the pirates who came to apply: between eighteen and fifty years old, either very thin, or simply skinny, with teeth that go in and out, if the eyes are still If it's crooked, it can't be perfect. The more fierce it is, the better. Of course, long hair and a beard will definitely be an advantage to passing the interview. So, in order to get this job and become a member of Captain Jack Sparrow's command, the trend of growing long hair and beards became popular among the extras, and the trend of losing weight brought by "Eleven" men's clothing, It also spread strongly among the extras.

In fact, everyone is not surprised by the harsh conditions of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" crew. Imagine that countless pirates, in order to create the effect of "identity", will cost a lot of money just for the makeup part. Now, when the crew recruits extras, they all hope to recruit some thin, long-haired and bearded actors. These actors can become pirates with a simple make-up. This huge crew saves a lot of money. prop cost.

The crew of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" sequel started filming vigorously, and in order to protect the content of the film, the crew started closed shooting and refused all forms of interviews, not only Evan Bell, but also Keira Knightley, Orlando Buzz Rum and other supporting characters, as well as the new characters added in the sequel, everything is kept a secret, just to retain the greatest sense of mystery.

So, after Evan Bell "rescued" a fire in Burbank, he disappeared from the media. Originally, media reporters believed that when Evan Bell's film "Mysterious Skin" was released, he was bound to appear. After all, this film won him the Silver Lion Award. This is definitely a bomb-level work. The value of this film has attracted countless attention. But what is surprising is that Evan Bell is still busy on the set in Los Angeles, and has no plans to attend the "Mysterious Skin" release ceremony.

In the end, Evan Bell did not appear.

On December 3rd, "Mysterious Skin", which was honored at the Venice Film Festival, was officially released. The distribution company Miramax arranged for the film to be screened in 200 cinemas for the first week. Released on the same day is another high-profile production, "Stolen Heart," starring Julia Roberts, Jude Law, Natalie Portman and Clive Owen, a stage adaptation of the original It is well-received in itself, and the film version is even stronger. Its distribution company, Sony Columbia Pictures, also hopes that this work can make a difference in the awards season.

With the advent of December, the 2004 awards season has come again, and works that are determined to make a difference in the awards season are all released at this time. It is also for public relations work, and the Oscar PR campaign has already started since then.

The Weinstein brothers are very optimistic about the performance of "Mystery Skin" in the awards season this year, so they naturally use their skilled promotion skills to start the public relations work for the work. Although Evan Bell was absent from the publicity of the release, if the media is willing to observe carefully, Teddy Bell, who has always worked with Evan Bell on the crew, did not accompany his younger brother in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" sequel in Los Angeles, but appeared in Beside Harvey Weinstein, the public relations work of "mysterious skin" was launched, and Eden Hudson was accompanied by him, which was quite surprising.

Teddy Bell left the "Pirates of the Caribbean" sequel after confirming that Evan Bell's condition was fine, leaving the assistant job to Sean Mayer to arrange. And Teddy Bell himself, and Eden Hudson have more important work to do.

The entire process of "Mysterious Skin" participating in the Venice Film Festival this year was done by Teddy Bell himself. The purpose is to make ** movies similar to "Little Sunshine" for Eleven Studio in the future. In this case, it is possible to find suitable channels to promote it. Similarly, Teddy Bell and Eden Hudson must also participate in the "Mysterious Skin" Oscar PR work handled by the Weinstein brothers. This is the first time that Eleven Studio has entered the PR work of the awards season. For veterans like the Weinstein Brothers to be leading masters, it is natural to study hard.

In fact, in addition to "Mysterious Skin", other works launched by Eleven Studio, "Love Notebook" and "Crash" are all promising to make a difference in this year's awards season, but the publisher of "Love Notebook" is Warner Bros., "Crash" is Fox Searchlight, all of which have professional departments responsible for the operation of awards season. And "Mysterious Skin" follows the model of ** production from beginning to end and is led by the Weinstein brothers, so it is understandable that Teddy Bell and Eden Hudson focus on this.

"Mysterious Skin" and "Stealing Heart" were chosen to be released on December 3rd, and there is also a Chinese film registered for the competition, "House of Flying Daggers" directed by Zhang Yimou will also be released on the same day. In fact, Evan Bell and Zhang Yimou are also related. "Death Illusion" and "My Father and Mother" were exhibited together at the Sundance Film Festival; "Adaptation" and "Hero" both appeared at the Berlin Film Festival. ; Now, "Mystery Skin" and "House of Flying Daggers" landed in the North American market again.

However, whether it is "Mysterious Skin", "Stealing Heart", or "House of Flying Daggers", they are all aiming for the awards season and do not have much ambitions for the box office. Just look at the number of theaters they have released. "Mysterious Skin" is 200, "Stealing Heart" is 400, and "House of Flying Daggers" is 15. This shows that it is a limited screening. , just to be able to meet the finalists for the awards season's major awards ceremonies.

Despite this, the media in the United States still focused on "mysterious skin": what kind of movie is it that can make Evan Bell, who is sitting in the director's position for the second time, win a Silver Lion Award Woolen cloth?
