《harry potter》、《"The Twilight Saga", people seem to come here just for these two books and not care about anything else.

At the same time, the new books in these two series of novels will soon be released on the East Coast~.

In a high-end coffee shop near Central Park in New York.

Martin is tasting the authentic Blue Mountain coffee here with two girls

"Martin, what do you think of this script?"Scarlett Johansson asked.

And the other girl also looked at Martin nervously. This was her first real movie. When she found Scarlett and wanted to persuade her to star, she really didn't expect Scarlett to find her. Come on Martin.

Her name is Sofia Coppola. She comes from the famous Coppola family in Hollywood. Her father is Francis Ford Coppola, the great director who made"The Godfather".

Sofia Coppola can almost be said to be in She grew up on the set. As a baby, she appeared in"The Godfather" and played the role of the baby being baptized at the end of the film.

Later, she participated in the drama film"Betta" and played a little girl.

When Sophia was 18 years old and had just graduated from high school, she In order to help her open up the road to acting, her father arranged a role for her in"The Godfather Part 3".

But the effect was not satisfactory. Sofia's performance in the film brought her a"Golden Raspberry Award" The Worst Newcomer Award, and a Worst Supporting Actress Award.

After that, she went to Paris and found a job at Chanel, answering phone calls to Chanel's artistic director Karl Lagerfeld.

At the same time, she began to study photography.

1999 In 2001, she filmed her first movie——《"Girls Go Forward" is an experimental film, but she won the Hollywood Young Director Award for this film. The film was also selected as one of the"Top Ten Best Films" in 2000 by the French magazine Cahiers du Cinema.

It was also from this moment that she completely gave up her career as an actress and embarked on the path of a director.

After directing two more short films, Sofia felt that she could really enter the big screen, so she wrote the script"Lost in Translation"

"Have you been to Tokyo?"Martin asked, closing the script.

"Yes, the inspiration for this script came from several trips to Tokyo. That place was charming and weird. People there were always in a hurry and didn't care about each other. Even if someone fell down and died in public on the street, no one would stop. I stepped back and took a closer look. At night, there were drunk men and escort women everywhere.……"

"I felt so confused, disoriented, lonely and isolated there. Everything is so crazy, it tortures you"

"The people there seem to have a strange sense of crisis that oppresses them and puts them under heavy pressure. So I came up with an idea: to interpret the scene of juxtaposing mid-life crisis and 20-year-old life."

"Many of the plots and a lot of dialogue in the script came from conversations I heard there, my experiences and people I knew."

Sofia was talking, but she had a strange feeling in her heart. The guy in front of her was just a fourteen-year-old child. Can he understand what I said?

However, Martin's next words broke the stereotype in her heart.

"I saw some expressions of your personality from Charlotte in this script. You are a master at weaving emotions because you immersed your true emotions into it. If I guessed correctly, Sophia, your marriage It must be unsatisfactory. Are there any plans for divorce in the near future? Sofia

Coppola's eyes widened,"This, this...how did you see it?""

"I said it, emotions, Charlotte's emotions! You cast your own shadow in the character of Charlotte. I think the sadness of being left out by your husband must be a true portrayal of your state of mind: your husband is probably the same as the workaholic in the film."

An indescribable emotion suddenly surged in Sophia's heart - the Martin in front of her, a fourteen-year-old boy, turned out to be her confidant!!!

This thirty-year-old woman was not a beauty in the traditional sense, but There is a unique charm.

At this time, she looked at Martin with a complex look that was mixed with confusion, surprise, and inquiry. Her mouth opened slightly, and she wanted to say something, but she swallowed it back.

After a while, she said with an exclamation The tone said:

"I never thought you could see so much from the script! Yes, my marriage is not happy. Since getting married, Jones has taken on one job after another. In the process, I discovered the gap between the two of us. He is a realistic person, and he is right about this. But we are really not suitable, and I really don’t want to continue. Martin nodded and said:

"The success or failure of a marriage does not depend on right or wrong, but depends on whether the two people are compatible in soul."

"But I think you are not suitable for marriage before the age of 40?"

The boy in front of her suddenly gave Sophia a kind of charlatan.

"Why?"

"Your thinking is too sensitive and too artistic. Talent is a double-edged sword. People with talent usually have a bit of perfectionism and a picky mentality. For their significant other, it is difficult to be with such a person. Living together is a torture"

"Because this type of people usually imagines a very beautiful scene about marriage, and once the marriage in reality does not conform to this scene, they will be sad, disgusted, and unwilling to make do with it."

"Like you said, your husband is right, but you just don't like it."

Sofia's eyes widened, and she felt that what the boy in front of her said made some sense.

Then she suddenly thought, isn't this guy also a talented person?

So she suddenly asked:"What about you, Martin, you too Would you marry that kind of talented artist?" (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"No, but I will have a lot of women!"Martin did not mince words.

"Yes, he does have a lot of women!"Scarlett on the side added.

Sophia's eyes widened,"There are many women, how old is this guy?!"

Then she suddenly reacted and looked at Scarlett,"Scarlett, could it be you!

Scarlett smiled and said calmly:"Yes, I am one of them.""

Sofia felt that her three views were about to be shattered, and she asked extremely curiously:"Aren't you jealous? Don't want to have him all to yourself?"

"I want to, but I can't."Scarlett said

"Will he accept that you have other men?"Sofia asked again

"I won't!"Scarlett said

"Not accepted!"Martin said.

The two people's calmness almost made Sophia's head explode. Why would there be such a person? It's like mind control, but it is obviously impossible.

Then Martin picked up the script again, flicked his fingers on it, and said:" So I’m going to say the second thing. This script is good. Scarlett can play it, but the revealing scenes need to be removed or a stand-in needs to be found."

"If you agree, I can also invest!"

Sofia thought for a while and agreed.

The budget of the film is about 5 million, her father invested 1 million, and she has to find the rest of the money herself.
