Chapter 155 (1/2)

Malibu.

Unlike New York, which is still chilly in spring, the temperature in Los Angeles in March is just right even in the early morning.

Cliff mansion on the west side of Cape Dumay park.

In the bedroom near the sea, the soft morning wind and the sound of the waves blow into the room from the French window leading to the terrace. On the big bed, Katherine opens her eyes and feels the cool air across her face, so she reaches out and touches, finally grabs another pillow and covers her face quietly.

With a light smile, Catherine stopped covering her face, and then poked the man with her elbow.

It's all this little bastard.

Asshole.

How do you deal with Jennie next, and in case things get out

Simon, who had been elbowed by Catherine, also woke up. The confusion of last night soon flooded into his mind. Looking around, Janet looked at herself with one hand on her chin and a smile. On the other side, Catherine covers her face with a pillow like an ostrich.

”Good morning, Jane, and Catherine.”

As he said hello, Simon got up slightly, gave Janet a kiss on the face, and moved to the other side. Just, feel him close, Catherine is frightened general and disorderly hammer on him a few times.

Janet chuckled again and said, ”well, little bastard, get out of here and help Kate and I get breakfast ready.”

Simon put on his clothes, got out of bed and asked Janet, ”I said I was going to New York today. Tomorrow is your birthday. Don't you really want to celebrate it? ”

Janet gave up and said, ”I've said I'm not interested in birthdays.”

Simon saw Janet's small expression of letting herself out quickly, with a smile on her face. She went to kiss the woman's face again, and then left the bedroom. She began to wash in another bathroom of the villa, but she could not help thinking about the beautiful scene of last night.

Yesterday, Simon still left work very late. In the evening, he had dinner with the director selected by the company for ”steel Magnolia” and talked about some movies. When he returned to Malibu, it was more than eight o'clock. While staying alone in her study to design the script for Batman, Janet suddenly calls and asks herself to pick her up, but Janet and Catherine are the two.

Then.

Something just happened.

After breakfast, Catherine is pulled into the restaurant by Janet, but her eyes still dare not contact Simon.

After handing Katherine a bowl of milk cereal, Simon looks at Janet, who has already picked up the bread and started to spread the jam, and asks, ”so, why did you suddenly come back last night?”

Janet took a small bite of her bread and said, ”Kate and I went to see the screening of when Harry meets Sally, and then suddenly we thought of some little bastard.”

”Oh,” Simon said with a smile, ”how was the movie?”

”It's better than the original script, and it's beautiful. I didn't know Manhattan could have been so beautiful,” Janet said as she thought. ”Besides, the interviews were very interesting. Are they real couples?”

”All actors. However, the interview is true. The crew collected dozens of interviews of old couples and selected these materials from them, ”Simon explained. He looked at Catherine again. Seeing the woman dodging her eyes, he found a topic and said,” tomorrow is Jenny's birthday. Shall we go to Palm Springs these two days? ”

Katherine shook her head in a panic. ”No, I have to go back to New York later. Electricity The movie thing. ”

Simon wanted to stay, noticed Janet winking at herself, and changed the subject wisely. After breakfast, although it was the weekend, Simon was still driven to the company by Janet. As long as he didn't have anything special, he would continue to work on weekends.

As soon as he arrived at Denise pictures headquarters, Simon received a call from ICM. Julia Roberts agreed to his request for five films yesterday.

Then came ”when Harry Met Sally.”.

Yesterday, the film was screened in 33 screening halls in major cities in North America. Just after Simon hung up the phone with ICM, Amy Pascal came in with a happy face and knocked on the door with a document.

”Simon, this is the first day media feedback of” when Harry meets Sally ”just sent by Disney. The comprehensive score of the media has reached 9 points,” Amy said, shaking her head and saying, ”it's a pity that it's Easter time. Many critics think this film won't be popular with young people.”

”As long as the propaganda method is appropriate, the audience can always be attracted to the cinema. Moreover, the proportion of young audience of summer program is also very large, and the competition is more fierce. We can't push the program to the end of the year. By contrast, I think the Easter schedule is more suitable for the film. ”

Simon said and opened the file Amy handed over. The first thing that appeared in front of him was some media reviews.

”A very smart romantic comedy, a series of distinctive characters let people feel their shadow unconsciously.” ——Chicago Tribune.”This is a film that you can't miss on Easter.” ——Hollywood Reporter

”I prefer the freshness and humor of when Harry meets Sally to the cunning of Woody Allen.” ——The Los Angeles Times

”Meg Ryan's performance is memorable, and the strong chemical reaction between the hero and heroine makes up for all the defects of the film.” ——Variety

”humorous and warm,” when Harry meets Sally ”is destined to become a masterpiece of romantic comedy type.” ——The San Francisco Chronicle
