Chapter 39
After a date and two pieces of good news, Ronald, who was cured of the ordinary life syndrome, was refreshed again.
After sending the enrollment confirmation letter, Ronald also wanted to let a few high school friends know where he was going.He went to the tourist store to buy a lot of postcards. After returning to the apartment, he wrote postcards to his high school friends.I dug out my high school graduation memorabilia.
Tottville High School, Class 1978 is stamped on the cover.There are also mugshots of each classmate on it, most of which were taken by myself.Because of these avatars, the graduation souvenir book is also commonly known as "Facebook (Facebook)"
Ronald turned to the last "where to go" page, copied down the address of the university they were admitted to, or the address of their work, wrote a paragraph to a few acquainted classmates, and sent a postcard with the scenery of Los Angeles.
"End wandering, return to New York. Destination: New York University.
— Greetings from Los Angeles, love you Ronald. "
"Ring, ring, ring..." Ronald heard the alarm clock he had set go off, and before he knew it, it was already the time he had appointed in the evening, and he wanted to call Mara.
Young men and women in America, if they seriously consider developing a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship with each other, they usually use three dates to test each other and understand their temperament.If you wait until the third date, the two parties still have a good impression, then go to home plate, it is said that the relationship will last longer.
Ronald didn't want just a brief encounter, he was very satisfied with Mara's explosive figure and gentle personality.Thinking of a date for the weekend, how about going to the beach for a swim?A smile appeared on his face.
The opposite phone answered quickly, "Hi, Marla, it's me, Ronnie."
"Ronald Lee! You sleepy ghost, is being with me so boring?" Mara scolded her head and face.
"What's the matter, sweetheart, what is a sleepy ghost? How about we go swimming in Venice Beach tomorrow?" Ronald sent out an invitation.The winter in Los Angeles is warm, and there are a lot of surfers and swimmers on the beach at noon.
"Go with your sleepy bastard! You make me look like a fool tomorrow in front of my classmates. They all saw me getting into your little broken car at the school gate! How can I be so stupid that I will believe your nonsense?" Mara shouted angrily.
"What's going on, Mara? You've got me a little confused."
"You're yawning in front of all this TV audience and you're so sleepy with me? Everyone in high school tomorrow knows I'm dating a yawning idiot. And you're talking nonsense about Oscar-nominated movies and I'm going to She will definitely be ridiculed by Chris's bitch. Her boyfriend took her into the official crew of MGM!"
"What yawn? What Oscar nomination? What Chrissy? Marla, I don't understand what you're saying?"
"Watch TV, I was killed by you." Mara said and hung up the phone.
Ronald hurriedly turned on the TV, flicking the channel knob, looking for the question Mara said.
Tuning to the CBS-2 channel, Ronald found the female presenter who interviewed him yesterday.
After looking at the column information at the bottom of the screen, the entertainment news rebroadcast at 7 o'clock.
"Hello, we are reporters from CBS-2 in Los Angeles, interviewing viewers who have finished watching 'The Deer Hunter.'"
"We caught you yawning, did you find the film boring?"
The camera cuts from the hostess to herself.Ronald opened his mouth wide on the TV, narrowed his eyes and yawned, and then patted his mouth with his hands.
It was yesterday's interview, why was my yawning included?Ronald was a little annoyed, he didn't show his handsomeness at all.
"I've never been to a Russian-American community. The wedding scene was nearly an hour long. Then I went to Vietnam and was captured in less than a minute? I was waiting to see some battle scenes, but I only saw Russian roulette. bet."
This?
This damn TV station edited my words!
I obviously said a lot of good things about "The Deer Hunter", and I also praised the director for creating an atmosphere and enhancing the environment!I also boasted about the wedding, as if I grew up in a Russian community!Ronald was dumbfounded, what I said was good, why did it turn into pure criticism?
"Then what do you think of the actors' acting skills? In your opinion, are the three performance nominations for this film appropriate?" the hostess asked again. This year, "The Deer Hunter" has also been nominated for many performance awards.
"Um, I think I like the bridesmaid at the wedding better than the two leading actors, Robert De Niro, and that, that...Christopher Walken, called..., called..., yes called Meryl Streep. I think she's also at a high level."
The camera cuts back to Ronald's face, "Hey... oh."
He yawned again and rubbed his eyelids with his fingers.
Shameless!asshole!
Ronald cursed in his heart.
Another black photo of me yawning.
Also, I clearly said that the two of them deserved the nominations, why is it edited here as if I deny their acting skills, saying that they are not as good as a new actress?
"Last question, what is your name and what is your occupation?"
"My name is Ron, and I'm a freshman in college this year, preparing to study film."
"Wow, no wonder your reviews are so professional, okay, thank you audience from the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles. Here is the hostess...bringing you a live report from the Kodak Theater, and now turn the time back to the studio. "
This is misleading, this is slander!
Ronald slapped the table angrily.
"Swollen!" He shook his hands in pain.
"You still took pictures of me so ugly, I saw you yawned!"
The camera cuts back to the studio, and the two hosts, a man and a woman, smile.
"Wow, that's probably the most professional comment we've ever gotten from an audience interview. What do you think about Sleepy Ron? Does it make sense?"
"To be honest, I think his complaints about the length of the wedding and the lack of war scenes may have hit the hearts of many ordinary viewers who went there admiringly. But this movie is an 'author's movie', and we can't judge it with ordinary eyes. Judging it, such embellishment and elaboration are necessary for the director's unique way of telling the story..."
"Well, this is a critique from Sleepy Ron, who represents not only the general audience, but future Hollywood professionals. Anyway, his opinion is interesting, isn't it? That one hour long , a wedding that lasts one-third of the movie..."
Sleepy Ron?And gave himself an ugly nickname?
Ronald subconsciously slapped his palm on the table again, touching the same place as last time.
"Ouch, ouch...it hurts!"
"Let's take another look at Jane Fonda from 'Homecoming' as we interview her right now at her studio in Los Angeles..."
"Did you read what Sleepy Ron said about 'The Deer Hunter,' Jane? Do you agree with him?"
"It's not convenient for me to criticize other people's films, but he obviously represents the views of many ordinary audiences. I still insist that 'Return of Honor' is the better film that reflects the Vietnam War that was nominated this year... "Jane Fonda talked with a smile.
"What do you think of the Vietnam vets, and religious people, who criticize you for cheating with your wedding ring on in the movie 'Homecoming'?"
"No, I don't think that is an immoral act. In contrast, our commander-in-chief ordered the bombing of tens of thousands of civilians in North Vietnam, which is even more immoral..."
"Crack", Ronald turned off the TV, depressed.
It was nicknamed by others, and it was also treated as a joke and played everywhere.
By the next day, things started spreading unexpectedly at an accelerated pace.
"Hollywood Report" reprinted the CBS-2 interview, and put Sleepy Luo's comment that the wedding scene was too lengthy, and put it in the newspaper intact, adding fire to the already fierce Oscar trophy war.
