When I was still thinking about the box office, Laila was also amused at her brainstorming after she recovered.
And she really laughed, laughing happily when the surrounding was still screaming, and when the plane was still shaking and bumping in the turbulence.
"You are such an optimistic child." When the people sitting not far away saw her smile, they couldn't help being surprised.
Laila looked for her side and saw a middle-aged man looking at her. The person was not amiable, and could even be said to be ferocious, but with a smile on his face, he was relieved a little bit strangely, making him change from "children will be scared to cry" to "children will only be scared when they meet ".
"Thank you, Mr. Tobin Bell." Laila returned him with a friendly smile, not afraid of that fierce face.
"Do you know me?" Tobin Bell was even more surprised.
"Of course, I have seen your movie. You are one of my favorite actors." Laila laughed.
Tobin was happy "I thought that only criminals would like me. You know that all my roles are bad guys."
"It's also an ability to play bad guys well, isn't it?"
"Hehe." Tobin feels Very pleasant "Lovely lady, you can really talk. But are you really not afraid?" You can laugh on the frighteningly bumpy plane. Is this lady too courageous or too nervous? ? He found that he couldn't help but be curious about this.
Laila curled her lips "An old saying in the ancient country in the far east 'Hades wants you to die for the third watch, who dares to keep people until the fifth watch'. It probably means that the death god wants to take your life, then you can't escape it."
"It's a terrifying but philosophical sentence." Tobin sighed with emotion.
At this time, the plane finally stopped its turbulence, and the captain's voice was heard on the radio telling everyone that the turbulence had passed and that it would land safely in a while.
Regardless of the person on board or Laila, there is a feeling of aftermath. And being able to meet Tobin Bell here makes her feel worthwhile.
Speaking of this name, it may not be remembered by many people, but when it comes to the jigsaw in "Chain Saw", many people will know who he is.
Since 2004, every "SAW" has brought a horrible whirlwind to audiences who like horror movies around the world, and each one has brightened the blind's eyes with outstanding results.
Most of Tobin's roles are criminals and serial killers because of his own image, and he has the most dazzling and eye-catching role than Jigsaw. At least in Laila's view, if Chainsaw Horror didn't ask him to play the jigsaw, the film's charm would drop by at least 20 to 30%.
"Mr. Tobin, do you have any starring plans in the future?" Laila felt like she knew what the second movie was going to be.
Tobin smiled and shook his head: "Probably there are no criminals who need to be moved to the big screen."
Laila was amused by him "Will you try to create a more memorable criminal with me?"
"With you?" Tobin was stunned.
"Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Laila Moran, and I am a director."
"Ah!" Tobin opened his eyes in surprise "Laila Moran is the one who made "The Blaire Witch."the young director?"
"Yes, if there is no second witch Blair, it should be me." Laila smiled and joked.
Tobin was really surprised. As an actor, even if he is not a particularly famous actor, he will definitely pay attention to the entertainment circle and the movie circle.
To say that the most famous movie this year is not "Independence Day", which won the world's top box office with more than $800 million, but "The Blair Witch" filmed with an innovative pseudo-documentary technique. It has won a global box office of 120 million at a cost of less than US$100,000, and it has just been released abroad. As long as it is not suddenly banned, it is not difficult to break through 150 million, or even 200 million. impossible.
What a terrible profit ratio is this? It can be said to be the movie with the highest return on investment in history.
And not only movies have attracted attention, but the directors of movies have gradually become familiar to the world. The 18-year-old girl, who was almost dying of illness, inherited a small film company after recovering. The first film she wrote and directed made a miraculous film.
The plot that can only be found in this kind of movie actually takes place in Hollywood, which is even more exciting than the movie.
Tobin looked at Laila in amazement. At first he thought the report must be exaggerated. He could see the real person, but she could laugh easily when she saw other people panicked in the turbulence on the plane. This calmness, unique heart, and... madness, means that she has the potential to become a famous director.
If you are not crazy, you will not survive. If you want to make a difference in a certain area, there will definitely be places with abnormal people.
"I didn't expect to be able to meet the hottest director in Hollywood today. It's really an honor." He said with emotion.
Laila smiled: "I'm so hot, I believe there are not a few people waiting to see me stubborn."
Tobin thought of an article in the newspaper two days ago and knew what she was referring to.
"You mean the article about the director of a piece?"
Laila shrugged, "Yes." The
so-called director of a piece refers to a director who has only made one successful film in his life and has no masterpiece.
Let's not talk about it, just take Daniel Myrick, the original director of the Blair witch. After Blair Witch, there has been no impressive work, the reputation is not high, and the quality is not good.
In addition, there is Leonard Kastle, the director of "Honeymoon Killer", who has had a great influence on later generations of road killer movies.
They are not short of talents, and some have created remarkable achievements at the time, but what happened later?
Either dimmed, or completely disappeared from the audience's sight.
I want to know that there is no one but Cooper who will write such an article. Perhaps it is because he understands that the energy behind Laila is not something he can fight against. This time he did not directly attack her face to face. Instead, he chose a more tactful way to present the previous examples in front of the readers and let the readers judge the performance of Laila afterwards.
Only 18 years old; the first work is a funny DV movie, there is no trick at all; the box office made entirely by hype...
Can such a director have another outstanding work?
Cooper didn't say his own inference, but he had already said it very clearly after he had finished his words, that is 'NO!'
When Laila saw this article, she also thought that Cooper had some ability. After all, the director of the witch has really dimmed, and no masterpiece has appeared.
He was right. It was only a few years later that the pseudo-recording technique was brought back to life through "Ghost Record". After that, it was not without success, but it was not much.
