A few months ago, the old ruffian Quentin made the movie "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" with the most touching tenderness in his heart. This is his romantic love letter to Hollywood and a gift to fans.
In May of this year, Ryan Murphy, a celebrity in the American drama circle, presented a love letter to the golden age of Hollywood with a limited series, full of brilliance and dreams.
"Hollywood"
Hollywo
7 episodes in total
Netflix produced, only 7 episodes.
Ryan Murphy - the most arrogant and talented man in the American drama circle, one of the directors and screenwriters of the show.
Ryan is a weirdo in the American TV industry, a maverick.
He has multiple identities, director, screenwriter, producer.
Most of his works are restricted-level themes, and they all have two important and obvious characteristics, "large scale" and "heavy taste".
For example, "The Plastic Surgery Room", which brought him the Golden Globe Award, walks on the edge of soft pornography and takes the pursuit of excitement as its mission.
"American Horror Story", "American Crime Story", and the ripping drama "Rivals: Joan and Betty", which made Ryan famous and rich, are all very successful topical dramas.
Violence, sex, gore, same-sex, transgender, drugs... Small scale is not Ryan Murphy.
His drama can meet all the heavy mouth needs.
However, this "Hollywood" has obviously converged a lot, and the plot is also much simpler.
Compared with his previous works, "Hollywood" is more like a hilarious popcorn show, with little nutrition, but still full of relish.
The story of "Hollywood" takes place after World War II, when a group of aspiring young actors and filmmakers came to Hollywood to pursue their dreams.
Jack, a veteran, has a good face and always has an actor dream in his heart.
His wife has twins and is about to give birth.
However, what Hollywood lacks most is good-looking young people.
Jack didn't even have the chance to be an extra, but he couldn't afford to delay raising his family.
So he was forced to go to work at the gas station.
Of course, this is not a serious gas station. The owner of the gas station has recruited a group of young men with breasts and flesh to serve special groups of people, called "Cowboys".
This special group of people are rich aunties and same-sex oriented men in the closet. They drive to the gas station and say the code word "dreamland", and then a young and strong guy gets into their car and drives away.
One of Jack's guests is a very rich old aunt.
The old aunt didn't care about the eyes of the people around her, she swaggered to the hotel to open a room with the little fresh meat, and the little fresh meat melted in a few words.
However, Jack is an uncompromising straight man. When the boss offered to let him serve the man in the closet, Jack couldn't accept it.
But his livelihood was difficult, so Jack designed to deceive a black gay brother to be a cowherd together.
People of color were not welcome in Hollywood at the time, but this little black brother had a screenwriting dream in his heart.
In their circle, black actresses, mixed-race newcomers, and rich and second-generation nobles were also ushered in later.
Everyone has a different background, but there is no exception in the heart of a dream of vigorous growth.
Ryan Murphy is like a dreamer. He knows the weight and cost of dreams. "Hollywood" rewrites the historical fiction and fills the regrets of those who are buried in history and have not been seen.
For the audience, "Hollywood" is a ridiculous world, and it is also the dreamland that countless people have pursued in that era.
Like Anna May Huang, the Chinese-American actor mentioned in the play.
The first Hollywood Chinese star, a "strange woman" in the world.
In that era of extreme discrimination against people of color, she broke into Hollywood alone, but white people despised her as a yellow race, no matter how good her acting skills were; Women's thighs, shame.
She had no country, no home and no love in her life, and she had no monument after her death.
Although it is fictitious, "Hollywood" in the play made up for her missed opportunity to star in the movie "The Earth".
There is also Rock Hudson, who has played a straight man all his life, but exists in a deep cabinet. "Hollywood" rewrote his story and rewrote the ending.
Sheldon played Lock Hudson's agent Henry Wilson in this play, and is no longer a silly and sweet existence in "The Big Bang Theory."
It is an ugly character who has bullied the actor for many years, forced the actor to have a relationship with him with various threats, and satisfied his own desires.
However, Sheldon's performance is quite remarkable, with enchanting dance and morbid temperament.
The story of "Hollywood" is unreal, all kinds of YY seem too superficial, after all, it has been divorced from reality.
Too happy ending gives the audience a feeling of distrust and even boredom.
However, as a popcorn show, "Hollywood" is very good.
The super punctual, handsome and clean Hollywood niches, the actresses with compelling temperament, and the sex scenes are also sexy and tempting, but they are quite fragrant and delicious, relaxed and interesting.
You don't need to brush multiple times, just once is enough.
