Chapter 619: One person, one dog, one world

Entering the VIP lounge in the theater, Matthew saw Alexandra Dadario and went over and said hello.

"Hi, Anna, long time no see."

When he saw Matthew, Alexandra Dadario immediately responded with a smile, "Good evening, Matthew."

Although the short-term relationship similar to that of a boyfriend and girlfriend ended soon, there was no conflict between the two and occasionally contacted each other. Matthew asked with concern, "How was your new film in Australia?"

"It's scary." Alexandra Dadario seemed to remember something horrible, and even his voice changed a little. "This shooting is simply a nightmare. I have to go to my body every day, which is so scary."

Matthew smiled and said, "It's all right after the filming. Don't forget that you are the heroine, and this kind of opportunity is rare."

Alexandra Dadario nodded vigorously, "Yes." She lifted a strand of hair and put it behind her ears, and said, "I have time to visit the crew."

Matthew replied politely, "I will go if I have time."

Alexandra Dadario didn't take it seriously. Even when filming in Australia, you can see Matthew's gossip news from entertainment news. Matthew has been having a hot fight with a young actress named Nina Dubov. Where can I have time to look back and see her former female companion?

Others don’t know, but she knows that Matthew is particularly fond of the old and old. How many women can he really take him seriously? Amanda is one of them, but Amanda and him are just friends, and the two never cross the line of friends.

The only one he really loved in his first love, Britney Spears? Maybe he also has some true feelings for Charlize Theron.

After chatting for a few words, Alexandra Dadario took the initiative to walk away. This romantic relationship left her with beautiful memories, but in the end it was just a memory in the course of her life.

Alexandra Dadario turned around and Matthew glanced at her back, and suddenly a familiar female voice came from behind, "I can't bear to chase you and be a girlfriend."

Matthew turned his head and Natalie Portman, who was invited by him, had arrived close to him.

"Nate." Matthew said dissatisfiedly, "Do you have to hit me?"

No matter who sees his words and expressions, he feels that he is a very good friend with Natalie Portman.

Natalie Porter stood next to him slowly and said, "Will you get hit?" She shook her head, "How could it hit you."

Matthew turned to Natalie Portman and deliberately joked, "Actually, I want to pursue you more."

"Don't joke." Natalie Portman also looked at Matthew, seemingly very serious, "We are not suitable."

"Why?" Matthew asked.

Natalie Portman said directly, "Will we become boyfriend and girlfriend? So, Matthew, we are still ordinary friends."

"Well..." Matthew nodded slowly, "You are right. Nat, you are the rare kind of friend."

Natalie Portman smiled. Isn’t this the result she has been pursuing? She took the opportunity to say, “You are also rare.”

"This film is about to be released, and "Hancock, the All-Man" has also been filmed." Natalie Portman asked as if his friend was concerned, "Are you going to take a break next?"

Matthew shook his head, "There is no rest. The screenwriters' union is planning a general strike, and my two projects have also been affected."

The profit sharing agreement signed between the Producers Alliance, the Actors Union, the Directors Union and the Screenwriters Union and other trade union organizations will expire in January next year. Several major trade unions in Hollywood want to win more benefits for themselves. A confrontation in the industry since the screenwriters strike in 1988 is about to kick off.

Celebrity actors like him are not worried. The scripts of "Fast and Furious 4" and "Twilight" have been finalized. The strikes between the Actors and Directors' Union should not happen. The Producers Alliance has always treated these two major organizations with a focus on comfort. These are also the two most critical professions in the industry and will definitely obtain new profit sharing.

As for the screenwriter union, just like the current situation of this profession in the industry, it is probably difficult to achieve the conditions they want, and in the end they can only choose a strike that they don’t want to see.

"Where is that project of Andrew Stanton?" Natalie Portman seemed to be worried for Matthew, "will be affected."

Matthew sighed, "Andrew has completed the script. David and I have talked to him several times. Disney Pictures is preparing for "Pirates of the Caribbean 4". The financial support is not enough, so we need to raise funds. David's film company and I are preparing to invest together, but the production budget of more than 200 million US dollars is too terrifying. We also need to raise funds, which will definitely take a long time."

After hearing these words, Natalie Portman remembered them all and said, "With your appeal, it should not be difficult to raise funds."

"It's not easy either." Matthew spread his hands, "so much money involved."

Natalie Portman nodded. If it weren't for so much money, Plan B and Brad Pitt would have been in contact with Andrew Stanton long ago. Pitt is still doing related observations and research, and is also considering fundraising issues.

According to Brad Pitt, if they don't move, they will hit it with one blow.

Matthew looked at his watch and reminded, "It's almost time, it's time to go in. Nat, let's talk again if we have time."

Natalie Portman smiled and waved at him, "Talk again if you have time."

The people in the VIP room soon entered the cinema, and the screening hall that could accommodate thousands of people was full. When Aziva Gossman and the crew's main creators finally walked into the cinema, warm applause came from the cinema.

The screening kicked off and a legend began.

A movie, a city, a person, a dog.

Matthew had watched the final edited version during the preview. He had completed films edited by Gilmore Del Toro, and more than 80% of the scenes were completed by him alone.

This is an unforgettable one-man movie.

According to Hollywood's usual routines, in addition to aliens, it is human beings themselves who really bring extinction disasters to the earth and mankind. Since this is a commercial blockbuster, of course, we must follow Hollywood's usual routines.

Human medicine has invented a new virus that can cure diseases. Unexpectedly, after the virus mutates, the infected humans turn into living zombies.

A large-scale virus suddenly broke out, and the speed of spread was almost no one could stop it. No one knew where the terrible virus originated, but knew that it could not stop, irreversible, and incurable, and most importantly, it was created artificially.

Colonel Robert Neville is a talented pathogen scholar in New York City who serves the U.S. military. As the vanguard of the government's investment in vaccines to fight epidemic diseases, he can only do nothing to watch as the virus rages on the streets.

This virus that can be transmitted through the air finally enveloped the entire city at a speed that was difficult to resist, allowing the president to order the Long Island area to be blocked, and those who are not infected can leave the island.

It can be imagined that this practice caused great panic among the citizens, and New York City was in a mess. Robert Neville was anxious to send his wife and daughter to the helicopter out of the city, but witnessed the tragedy of them dying in front of them...

Christopher Nolan sat in the seat, and once again felt that it was a loss to not speak out by Matthew Horner as a clown. He stared at the close-up on the screen. Matthew Horner's eyes seemed to be able to speak. The loneliness and anger she showed were really vivid, and people unconsciously remembered the tenderness of the iron man.

If there was only one person in the world, and a normal dog, the dog unfortunately left, a world of monsters, loneliness is more terrifying than death.

Matthew Horner performed this feeling appropriately.

What he felt most uncomfortable was always the desperate loneliness.

Perhaps anyone will feel that every day of such a character is just a fool.

The once prosperous New York City has become decaying and desolate, lonely and everywhere.

Danger, approaching at all times.

Grief, loneliness, despair, fear and a slim tomorrow... If this character focuses on displaying these negative things, then the movie and this character are meaningless. The more you look forward to the light in the dark, the more you are desperate, the more you never give up. This is the essence of this kind of story.

Therefore, although the tones of the whole movie are gray, there are always a few warm halos like sunset, just like the little hope in the despair of the screen.

Christopher Nolan unconsciously considered the structure of the entire film from his own perspective.

The plot construction of one person and one dog is full of unknown attraction due to the support of the background. The film is very rhythmic. When the audience just felt impatient, the main creator pressed a straw on the male protagonist. Sam was bitten by a zombie dog and was infected with the virus.

As a last resort, the male protagonist strangled Sam to death with his own hands.

That shot has been stuck on Matthew Horner's face. Matthew Horner is not as unbearable as those critics said. The performance is definitely worthy of the wonderful praise.

He did not exaggerate his inner pain with an exaggerated expression. In fact, his expression could almost be said to be hunched. However, everyone could see his inner pain and despair.

It is precisely because of this emotional preparation that his subsequent collapse is natural. The male protagonist, who has always been calm and self-sustaining, drove towards the zombies and wanted to die with them!

Of course, the film is not without regrets. In order to retain the hope of mankind, the male protagonist chose to die with the zombies, and returned to the traditional routine of Hollywood hero films.
