Chapter 131:
[Romantic Cody, reinvented
We, at the Weekend Tribunal, expected that “500 Days of Sumr” will unfold like every other romantic cody that Hollywood gives us…sohow, soway Tom and Sumr will weave their way through their many obstacles and will end up happily ever after.
Hollywood loves ‘happily ever after’, after all.
Yet in “500 Days of Sumr,” one of the most delightful and intelligent romantic codies since “Love Actually,” it becos obvious rather early on that director Carlson Duckstein, and celebrity Scriptwriter, Will Evans, is opting for authenticity over Hollywood formula and the final result is a film that sohow manages to seamlessly blend hopefulness with heartbreak and the magic of love with its mundane realities.
Much of this is accomplished in a way that so will find maddening, yet it unfolds perfectly within the context of the lives of Tom and Sumr. “500 Days of Sumr” flashes back and forth throughout the film between the early days of the awkward first etings, the fumbling days of getting to know one another, the celebratory days of transcendent love, the bitter break-up, the unfathomable grief and, yes, the resolution that is happy and satisfying and simply feels right for everyone involved.
We highly recomnd viewers and cinema-goers to give this movie a try, as this adds yet another fantastic cinematic, and theatric success in the repertoire that Will Evans, has brought to the scene.
And we are observing a trend with last year’s Hollywood’s biggest new star, as he brings another new na directly onto the big screen, in the form of Natalie Bergmann, who played the role of Sumr, in [500 days of Sumr]. Will this be a recurring the with Will Evans, as he searches for hidden talents to drag onto the big screen?
8/10 Weekend Reviews, are richly deserved for the new installnt from Dream Vision’s latest entry] – The Weekend Tribunal.
There were many such articles that praised [500 days of Sumr], as it brought another successful movie into Hollywood. It had already broken even with the initial investnt for the film and had hit a respectable 43 million USD, at the box office, in under two weeks, and after adjustnts from previous estimates, it is expected to earn at least a solid 85 million at the box office. So analysts claim the movie may run till it hits an even 100 million.
Natalie Bergmann was the recipient of the highest praise for her acting and talent that she had shown in the movie. Everything from her dialogue delivery, to her emotional expression, was picture perfect, and she was finally celebrating the fruits of her labor. Rumors of her receiving awards for work in the movie were already making rounds. The DTA and Dream Vision couldn’t be happier with the film’s success.

There was a black Maybach G900, that was stuck in the heavy traffic of Los Angeles, California. It was stuck in a slowly creeping traffic on route 60, heading back into the city, taking its passenger back ho, having finished a long day’s work at the studio.
The passenger seats of the car were occupied, by Ethan Silva and his agent, Johnathan Stevens. They were discussing the latest script that they had received, this one being from Dream Vision Studios, Hollywood’s latest up-and-coming star director, and scriptwriter.
Ethan Silva, was a talent that was contracted with Jenkins Talent Agency but liked to work mostly in the free market. He would work with most studios, provided they had a script that he liked.
But as his career had grown, he had beca more picky towards script and won’t do any roles or scenes which won’t cater to his image. It was common in celebs as they beco more of a star than an actor after reaching top.
As the Tom Cruise equivalent of this world, he also had a pretty boy image that had changed into an action hero one later on.
Still, Ethan also didn’t wanted to lose a chance to work with Will Evans.
Ethan had heard a lot of gossip from his colleagues and other agents from his agency, and he had stayed in touch with the goings-on in Hollywood, he knew about Will Evans, and he mused that working in one of his movies would do his career a lot of good.
“Sir, Will Evans’ involvent with the Big Six of Hollywood, and the drama generated by his previous interactions with MCA, have made him into a hot commodity at Hollywood, he already has a large viewer base in Arica, Europe, and in Asia.” Johnathan inford him.
“And he is known to complete the shooting of his films rather quickly, so if we do take this role, it would be a good addition in your portfolio. Especially after the average showing from your previous sci-fi action flick [Locked and Loaded, 2100.]”
That was true, Ethan desperately needed a movie that showcased his acting skills, [Liberty City], from Dream Vision Studios, may just be that film for him.
His other projects were in pre-production and based on Will Evans’ short shooting ti track record, he could fit this in, before he started work on his other films.
The other studios won’t mind it as they needed Ethan more than he needed him.
“Yes, it would also be a good opportunity for us to gain so connections with him, it will be good for us, even when you are at the top of the industry, new good connections are never sothing to frown upon.” Ethan mused aloud, and Johnathan nodded. “Let read the script.” He said as he extended his hand to take the file from his agent.
Ethan perused the script that he had been offered, and he had to admit the dialogue writing, and plot were in line with the kind of action films that he usually works in. And the plot twists and action sequences that the script indicated to are very chaotic. He would do well, in taking part in the film. But, he could see a small caveat.
“It is a good story. Chaotic, emotional, captivating, thrilling, everything that you want from an action film, but the role that I have been offered, of Tommy Vercetti, seems like it’s will be second best to Mario Di Mauro, I am a little worried that it will hurt by lead image. I haven’t played a support role, in a movie since ages. Can you negotiate for the lead in this movie?” Ethan asked.
It’s been so long he had had done any role other than the lead. His fans would already think of him as being in the lead if he’s in any movie at this point.
“It is doable, but you should keep in mind, that Jared Morgan, from ICM, was offered a supporting role in Will Evan’s [Sherlock Hols], and he had a similar problem with being asked to act in support of Michael Elrod, and as he was a new actor, Jared and his agent refused. Well, Jared is no longer being offered lead roles in any considerable movies, anymore. And directors refuse to work with him for anything other than small roles in romantic codies.” His agent, Johnathan cautioned.
Ethan nodded and said “Still, try and negotiate for the role of Mario, and if Will Evans already has a lead in mind, find out who he is. If he is a newbie, like Michael Elrod, then I will think about what to do next.”
Johnathan searched Ethan’s face for sothing and nodded “That can be done, that isn’t a problem. Will you take the role of Tommy if it is a newbie?”
Ethan thought over the question and nodded “It will be interesting to work with a new guy on set, but let’s see, if he is as good as it needs to be for the lead, I won’t have much issue.”
Ethan still had considerations but he at least wanted to hear the directors thoughts and how the movie would co to life. That was an important thing.

As Ethan’s car was reaching Dream Vision’s office, one car was stealthily following it. It was a black van that was deliberately keeping a safe distance.
“Where are you going, Ethan?”
The driver of the car, Freddie muttered.
He was a paparazzi that was in the industry for a long ti. These days, he had been following Ethan Silva, hoping to get so leak out of him.
But despite paying attention to him most of the hours a day and sleeping in his car, he had gotten nothing.
Today, he had a feeling he would get sothing.
After all, it was rare for him to go sowhere early in the morning. As the car entered a street, Freddie imdiately got an idea where it was going.
‘Is Ethan going towards Dream Vision office?’
He wondered, putting two and two together in his head. Will Evans next movie rumors were all over Hollywood and this might indicate that Ethan was going to be a part of it.
If it was true, then it might very well pay him 2000-4000 dollars from a good newspaper.
