《Hollywood King》Chapter 86.
Advertisement
Green Book was about to release on the 14th of February and was supposed to be a great go-to movie for all the valentines. Due to Ian’s name being famous with the Oscars and then the small scandal, the new movie’s promo had already been out and people were eagerly waiting for it to release.
Since the movie was promoted as a typical movie that Americans would go for on a Friday night and enjoy criticizing, people were already talking about the release. Ian’s fame of course affected it, yet it was something that everyone including Ian expected to hit high in the industry.
The main twist of the promotion was how Renner Studio promoted the name by using how it was expected to give all the profits to charity after its release. Due to that thought, people prioritized the need to go and watch the movie.
Another reason why people were anticipating the movie was how the well-known, experienced director F.F. Moses was the man behind the movie; the director. Since people had not seen him making any kind of movie for years, they were confused, surprised, and now banking on watching the movie.
On the other hand, Moses and Mason had to face interviews to promote the movie more.
“It’s so good to see you again, Mr. Moses,” The talk show interviewer said with a huge smile.
“Call me Moses, things are alive and kicking I see,”
Hearing Moses' words, everyone laughed. The talk show had made promos on the fact that Moses was making a return to the industry with his newest upcoming movie, Green Book. Due to this, all the fans of his previous works were continuously ringing the phone of the talk show.
“Moses, of course of course. How have things been for you? You know, while you were away. And I need to tell you this, I am so sorry for your loss, we all lost someone very important, and we know how close you guys were, so, let’s take some time to do a quick recap of some moments between you both,”
Jose said as the screen behind them started to play a video instead of the talk-show-name-wall. It was a small video of Moses and his friend talking while in a set location. They had cameras and other equipment around them.

“Las Vegas! What a wonderful place?! Moses has been talking about it ever since I handed him the script!” His friend said to the camera with a huge grin on his face.
“Ahaha… Even the actors look extra happy today, what a wonderful morning to start shooting for the next big hit,” Moses said with a smile looking at his friend.
Moses looked younger and happier than he was now. His hair was not as grey as it is now. His face which now had so many wrinkles seemed to look younger. He even had a notebook in his hand, and in the background, people were busy with one thing or another.
The video turned off after a few more clips, and the cameras focused on Moses who had tears in his eyes.
“We all miss him, man,” Jose said with a worried face. When the camera shifted its focus to Jose, even he had tears on his face.
Everyone was feeling sad all of a sudden and it was Jose’s time to shift the focus to the reason why Moses was at the talk show. Although at times like these, it was the moments when people remember the true legends who departed ways from the Earth.
“We all hope he is somewhere good, looking down on us and I’m sure your next big hit would definitely make him proud. About Green Book, can you share anything with us?” Jose asked.
Moses quickly sniffed and gathered himself in a split second. “Yes, so, the script is by our well-known young director, Ian Renner. He even succeeded in winning two Oscars for his previous work, La La Land which I should mention here because that young man is truly talented hands down. I’m not even joking, also about 'Green Book.' Well, it is a story about friendship, character, dignity, and compassion for each other. The film itself is very humorous but humble in the telling of that story. In my opinion, I can see the movie getting nominated for numerous awards in the near future. That is how good the storyline is,” Moses said while everyone in the crowd applauded.
“Directed by you; of course, it is going to be great. Now that you mentioned Ian, how is he in person? Of course, we had the opportunity of bringing him to the studio once, but what do you think of him personally?”

Talk show hosts would normally gather the courage to ask personal questions to want to create or generate more drama. But they also had the job of marketing whatever thing the guests had brought to the studio. That was the main deal of being in a talk show.
“Well, as I mentioned before, I did not personally want to do any movie when I simply don’t like the story, I can’t take that idea and make a good movie out of it. And when Sam called me saying there is this new script by Ian Renner, I wanted to meet the young man myself. Then, the next day we had a small meeting and I gotta say I was surprised to see such a responsible director in the first place, for his age. Honestly, the script is a masterpiece and I know I did a good job with the movie and I can’t wait for everyone to watch it,” Moses said with a smile that reached his eyes.
Ever since he got the project he had been thinking about how talented Ian was. In fact, he had compared every other director that he had worked with to Ian and concluded that even if some directors were experienced they couldn’t create and maintain such good manners.
“That is huge coming from you, but people are assuming things one way or another. Let’s make it clear, is this movie a way for Ian to save face from his racism allegations, which he disproved in court?”
Since as mentioned before TV hosts love bringing up drama. Although it had been a while since the racist scandal, the host wanted to bring it in for extra effects for the movie marketing in front of the cameras.
Hearing the words coming out of his mouth, Moses just laughed. “This movie is just a passion project inspired by those allegations, and Ian decided to throw light at the actual problem in the country, which I think the movie did beautifully,” Moses said, earning yet another round of applause from the crowd. Even Jose joined them.
“That seriously sounds like a huge plan. I hope it becomes a success, just like how Ian’s every movie was and yes we still have not forgotten how good your movies were, my favorite still is the award-winning ‘Friends To Last’,” Jose said with a smile.
“Thank you,”
“Yes and everyone this is yet another surprise, I heard that the profits would go to charity,”
“That’s right,” Moses said right quickly after.
“Every penny?”
“Every penny.”
“That is a wonderful task you guys are doing, and we really hope the movie reaches the success that it deserves!” Jose said and everyone clapped. Some people even stood up hearing the end goal of the entire project. That was how much of a depth they felt with it.
It was rare for directors to do such because everyone else just aims for the profits to make money so that they can invest in even bigger movies. But what Jose said made everyone respect the person in front of them and the person who was not present at that moment.
