The domestic film market reached a peak in the late 70s and early 80s, but then due to the impact of television, video tapes and piracy, the film market continued to shrink, and after entering the 90s, the number of moviegoers in the domestic film market was only 1 percent of the peak. Under such circumstances, the import of foreign films has become a lifesaver for the film industry.

So, at the end of 19 years, the country started the introduction of foreign films, at the beginning only allowed the introduction of ten films per year, this plan is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the entire film market, Hong Kong films into the mainland market, so that the film market prospered again. Subsequently, Warner Bros.'s "The End of the World" entered the domestic market with a box office share distribution.

"The End of the World" also became the first American film to be introduced in domestic history, and then in 19 years, "True Lies", "The Lion King", and "Forrest Gump" began to enter the domestic film market, officially opening the way for the domestic film market to connect with the world.

As the first person to eat crabs, "The End of the World" was the only American movie in China that was legally stationed in major movie theaters in 1994, when Hugo also went to the movie theater under the leadership of his parents to join in the fun, but Hugo was only five years old at the time, and he didn't remember what the movie was playing at all, but vaguely remembered that he ate a lot of snacks and slept beautifully.

Many years later, when Hugo grew up, he had the opportunity to re-watch the movie "The Outlaw", but he was not impressed enough. In fact, "The End of the World" is a typical Hollywood blockbuster, with plot peaks and loops, high 'tides', and many classic action scenes are indeed commendable, but in the eyes of Hugo, who has seen countless blockbusters, it does lack some attraction.

In fact, "The End of the World" not only achieved great success at the box office that year, but also won the Best Supporting Actor at the Oscars and was nominated for Best Picture, which shows that this movie is still quite well received. There are thrilling stabbing 'exciting' commercial blockbusters, and there are also 'fine' color performances worth exploring.

The film is also full of the style of the male lead, Harrison Ford. Harrison relied on the "Star Wars" series and the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" series to become the first box office superstar in the true sense of the meaning in the modern history of cinema, although he is not a veteran actor like Jack Nicholson and Al Pacino, and has not won any heavyweight acting awards in his career, but this does not prevent him from using his vigorous skills and heroic eyes to attract people to open their wallets and enter the cinema willingly.

"The Outlaw" is not as famous as other series of movies in Harrison's actor career, but it is still a very rare work.

Hugo can't remember the specific plot of the movie clearly, but he remembers the tight and busy process of watching the movie, he only vaguely remembers that the story is about a doctor who is believed to have killed his wife, but in fact the murderer is someone else, the doctor chose to escape from prison in order to prove his innocence, and the doctor has to face the police all the way to hunt down, and at the same time do not forget to find the real murderer.

When I watched the movie, I felt that it was extraordinarily 'fine', but looking back, this is a typical Hollywood hero movie, an ordinary doctor actually has eighteen kinds of martial arts, and the 'fine' color is more than enough, but the leakage is obvious. However, the gripping script still makes the movie break away from the ordinary popcorn 'flower' movie, and it can be called a good work.

After listening to Joseph's brief explanation, Hugo couldn't help but ask curiously, "Last time. Seattle sleepless at night and said let me play the widower, which makes sense; This time. The role of the outlaw who asked me to audition is a doctor with a successful career and a happy family, don't you think I'm not suitable? "Harrison is fifty years old this year, and you can imagine how different this horn 'color' is from Hugo.

Joseph's anxious mood was stunned by Hugo's words, "I thought you weren't willing to give up any opportunity, and you didn't know the result until you tried it, didn't you?" ”

Hugo nodded, "That being said, there are some things that are not worth trying, such as you asked me to audition now. Home Alone, Macaulay Culkin's horn 'color', this is obviously unrealistic. ”

It is a belief that nothing is given up lightly. But knowing that it is not feasible and not knowing how to give up is stupid stubbornness. People are self-aware, which contains this meaning, and never giving up is a belief, but it is also very important to do what you can.

Although Joseph's mood was still very heavy, he still couldn't help but tug at the corners of his mouth, "Don't worry, everyone knows that it will definitely not be convincing." So, if you make it to audition, the setting of the story will definitely be modified a little. ”

"It's like. Seattle sleepless nights, the same. Hugo is no stranger to this, although there has been no news about "Sleepless in Seattle" at present, but if Hugo can play, the age and past settings of the actor Sam will definitely be slightly modified to become more suitable for the actor's situation, only in this way can it be more convincing.

"Yes." Joseph nodded, "I told Arnold about this yesterday, and he said that after your audition, if it was successful, he would discuss it with the screenwriter." After that, Joseph didn't say anything more, he transferred all his 'energy' to driving, and sped all the way to Universal Pictures.

Hugo couldn't help but grab the handle on the top of the passenger window, widened his eyes, and kept swallowing his saliva. Hugo still has a 'shadow' of the car accident, he thinks that the car is going to turn into a jet and take off, Hugo strongly suspects that Joseph is going to get a ticket for speeding. But fortunately, there were no patrols along the way, otherwise things would have become more complicated.

Even though it was all the way to Universal Studios, the hands of the watch still pointed to a quarter past ten, and it was not a short time since the appointed time.

"Hurry, hurry," Joseph said loudly to Hugo before he even had time to stop the car, "Warner Bros. office building, conference room on the fifth floor." Hurry, hurry" Hugo opened the car 'door' and ran all the way, Joseph looked at Hugo's back that quickly disappeared from sight, then hurriedly parked the car, pulled out the key to close the car 'door', and after doing this series of actions, he also ran over.

Joseph's tonnage is really not suitable for running, he ran all the way out of breath, almost felt like he was going to lose his breath, but he couldn't care about it, quickly registered at the reception on the first floor, staggered over, only to find that he had just missed the elevator, turned his head to look at the stairs, Joseph could only helplessly take another step.

By the time Joseph climbed to the fifth floor, it was already five minutes later, and he saw Hugo standing in the middle of the hallway, panting with his hands on his hips, and Joseph standing at the safety exit breathing heavily, otherwise he would have suspected that his lungs would have burned directly.

Hugo heard the noise behind him, turned his head, and said helplessly, "No one." ”

"What...... Why......" Joseph felt that he was about to lose his breath, and looked at Hugo in surprise, and then realized that he had forgotten to breathe, and could not help but gasp even more rapidly.

"No one, the conference room is empty." Hugo was much better, and although he was panting, he looked very 'energetic' and didn't seem to sweat at all. "I asked the secretary and she said Arnold had left."

"What?" Joseph didn't seem to know what to say when he said this, he wanted to take a few steps forward, but found that he was panting too much, sweating like a waterfall, he couldn't help but lean against the wall next to him, "You, you ask the secretary to call Arnold." Joseph kept swallowing his saliva and adjusting his breathing, the effect of the previous run was finally shown, although he only lasted for a week, "If possible, you can talk to Arnold directly......"

Hugo looked at Joseph and couldn't help but say worriedly, "You really should continue to keep running." Then he turned and walked to the next office, looking for the secretary.

Joseph stood up straight, paced slowly in the direction of the office, and when he reached the 'door', he saw Hugo turn and shrug his shoulders helplessly at him, and his eyes revealed the meaning of "go out and talk", and Joseph did not go in.

When Hugo came out, he said with a depressed face, "Arnold gave the secretary a 'handover' before he left, saying that after I arrived, he told me that he didn't like people to be late, because he thought it was one of the basic elements of an actor." "In fact, the secretary has spoken very tactfully, and Hugo can imagine that Arnold himself is probably even more unpleasant," the secretary also said that there was no need to make a phone call, because Arnold forbade this to happen. ”

In short: it's over.

Joseph bent down in chagrin, "Oh God. Although he knew that Anthony's affairs had to be dealt with, so it seemed inevitable that he would be late, Joseph was still angry. If he wasn't so forgetful, at least he could have given Arnold a phone call beforehand to explain, so that even if there was no audition, the relationship would not be frozen.

As soon as Hugo saw Joseph's expression, he knew that he was stuck in a cycle of regret again, so he patted Joseph on the shoulder, "Hey, man, this matter is over, there is no need to keep dwelling on it, I think it's better to miss it, anyway, that role 'color' is not suitable for me."

Joseph stood up straight and looked at Hugo speechlessly, "Are you serious?" ”

"Of course not, just to comfort you." Hugo shrugged his shoulders, which made Joseph laugh angrily, and then Hugo said, "I'm forgetful enough, you can't be so forgetful, take it as a lesson." This time it was a lesson in the inappropriate role, and I hope I won't miss Indiana Jones next time. ”

Hugo's bluntness relieved Joseph, who looked at Hugo helplessly and wanted to say something, but finally shook his head and laughed.

Hugo walked in the direction of the elevator, "So, you don't have any other scripts on hand?" ”

Joseph followed with a shuffling foot, reluctantly glanced at the secretary's room, made up his mind to return to the car, and took out his mobile phone to make a call to Arnold Koppersen. After retracting his gaze, he looked at Hugo, "You're starting to get anxious now?" I didn't think you were nervous at all when I was on vacation before. ”

"Uh...... What to eat at noon? Hugo's voice disappeared into the elevator with the footsteps of two people.
