Michael Jackson's documentaries were made by Mark Thompson.
On the one hand, it can create a great publicity effect, gain attention, gain ratings, and gain profits.
On the one hand, it can suppress the American pop culture represented by Michael Jackson and take the opportunity to save the British entertainment industry.
"Dawn, I know you Americans have a lot of affection for Jackson. In fact, I love his music too. But we can't let emotion outweigh reason. He may not be as wicked as Jimmy Savile, but he did have sex. The experience of abusing boys. Hasn't the US court already given a statement?"
There's no way Mark Thompson would budge on doing this.
He will fight to the end.
If he admits to cheating on the reputation of a superstar like Michael Jackson, it's not a matter of stepping down from the BBC, his life will be ruined.
Besides, the director of the documentary, Martin Basher, lived with Michael Jackson for eight months and recorded hundreds of hours of interviews with him.
Are those materials really fake?
Dunn frowned, "Court? What do you mean?"
Mark Thompson said: "He was charged for sexually assaulting a boy! Don't you know?"
Dunn said angrily: "Of course I know, but the other party has not produced any tangible evidence, and Jackson has not been imprisoned."
"That's why he took out a huge amount of bail!" Mark Thompson glanced at Dunn, "Don, don't look at you as an American, but... Jackson's situation, you may not have as much information as I have. Isn't his case going to be reopened? Once the charges are confirmed, he is likely to face life in prison!"
"He will not!"
Dunn is very confident, the past life is the evidence.
Mark Thompson said: "Those two abused kids, Wade Robson and James Safechuck, were getting calls from Jackson every day asking them to deny the truth. You know, when...they were living there. At Neverland, Jackson and the two of them were secretly married, exchanged rings, and said vows. And a few other details…”
Dunn sneered, "Are you telling me a story?"
Mark Thompson didn't mean to joke at all, with a serious face: "It's true, we have a lot of interview material. The last documentary, it's only part of the truth. Michael Jackson is a popular symbol, the more you investigate him , you will feel more and more terrified."
"Don't show off the trick of "Documentary" in front of me." Dunn was quite disdainful and mocking. "Last year, two famous documentaries were released in the United States, "Fahrenheit 9/11" and "Declassified Fox." President Bush, one is targeting Rupert Murdoch, the financier behind President Bush Jr., in an attempt to influence the election. For this kind of conspiracy theory, go to deceive the working people, don't make a fool of yourself in front of me."
Mark Thompson sighed and said earnestly: "Dawn, I really don't mean to lie to you, nor do I have any provocations. I will send you a copy of our investigation materials and interview videos in an encrypted copy. These contents , we intend to produce a series of feature documentaries in the future to decipher the real Michael Jackson to the public."
Dunn gave him a deep look.
It doesn't feel right.
The other party seemed to have no fear.
When he was in the United States, he communicated with many people.
Most of the middle and low-level people believe that Michael Jackson is innocent, but when they reach the upper-middle class and the elite class... they either show a mysterious smile or nod lightly.
Just like Barry Diller, Michael Eisner, Steve Burke, they all agreed that Michael Jackson was definitely not clean. Children who have been abused since childhood are bound to be mentally deformed.
This seems to be difficult to explain.
However, Dunn does not matter.
He didn't know Michael Jackson either.
Innocent or criminal, it doesn't matter.
What happened to Michael Jackson is just a tool he used to suppress the BBC, suppress Sony Entertainment, and help NBC complete the acquisition of Sony Entertainment.
Let Hollywood return to the embrace of Hollywood.
Let the federal government have full support and trust in Hollywood.
Tang En shook his head and said lightly: "I only believe in the evidence. If he really did something wrong, the court will give the result."
"What if the two children were threatened or lured by Jackson's team and denied in court the fact that they had been violated? Wouldn't he be acquitted?"
"Could it be that your documentary has more credibility than the court sentence? Joke!"
"I have no intention of arguing with you. I am just stating some of my personal views. I admit that the BBC has the intention of making money on Michael Jackson's fame, but we are not a tabloid, we will come up with enough material to convince the public. The media has the right to express."
"That's not a substitute for the law!"
Dunn waved his hand, looked a little angry, and took Kate Winslet away.
As he walked, Tang En's heart became more and more complicated. I'm afraid some things may not be groundless.
"Kate, are you saying he's really a criminal?"
"Michael Jackson? Don't know."
"How do you feel?"
"I don't think it should be."
Kate Winslet looked around at the party, as if looking for someone important, and said casually: "Besides, yes or no, we appreciate his musical talent. How is his personal life, let us know It doesn't matter, we're not the kind of young, fanatical groupies."
Dunn smiled, "The mentality is good. But...the BBC is still not giving up. Mark just said that it will make a series of feature documentaries about Michael Jackson. The future...I don't know what will happen."
Kate Winslet smiled and said: "Never mind him, it has nothing to do with us, he is not a Universal Music artist, what are you so worried about? Come on, let me introduce you to a person, the editor-in-chief of "Sight and Sound", British The most famous filmmaker, Mr. Nick James. Today's party, he is the host."
(Note: What just happened, the latest Michael Jackson documentary came out. This time, not only the BBC, but also HBO also appeared on the stage, and the British and American worlds completely exploded. The United Kingdom is launching a comprehensive boycott. The United States is also serious, Many authoritative media, including The New York Times, HBO, and CNN, have come forward and called for their ban. In the fan support group, white and black people have all stopped, and those who insist on running to rehabilitate... It is the Chinese student group.)
...
Nick James' job is as a film critic.
But he is very famous.
In addition to being the editor-in-chief of Sight & Sound, he has published extensive review articles on film, art, and literature for publications such as The Guardian, The Observer, VOGUE, The London Review of Books, and Literary Review. Great influence.
He can even serve as the chairman of the jury of the Berlin Film Festival as a film critic.
"Some people say that the film critic group has died, Mr. Walker, what do you think?" In front of Dunn, Nick James asked for advice very modestly.
Tang En said with a smile: "Some media always like to use shocking arguments to attract attention. Film critics are part of the film industry. Where there are films, there must be film critics."
Nick James' face was much better looking, "Yeah, love movies, hate movie reviews! However, many movie fans simply don't know that if there is no group of movie critics, a movie like "Citizen Kane" will always be a movie. A failed film. In that sense, being a film critic is a very responsible profession."
Tang En said: "However, in the era of new media, it is impossible for film critics to play the role of turning a stone into gold in the past 50 years. In the past, film reviews existed in a personalized way. But today's media is too developed , professional, semi-professional, and even many directors, actors, and fans can act as film critics. IMDB Movie Data Network is an example, the world of film criticism has blossomed, and it is no longer just a stage for professional film critics.”
Nick James was silent.
The emergence of IMDB broke the myth of the supreme authority of film critics.
Rotten Tomatoes also aggregates the opinions of many film critics to form the Rotten Tomatoes Freshness Index. Turn the names of authoritative film critics into pieces of data.
This hurts even more.
The days of film critics are truly over.
Back then, film critics could make a movie a big hit. If the collective is bad, even Francis Coppola's films will be ignored.
Tang En said softly: "Film critics have very important value for movie fans to watch movies. The current predicament of film critics is actually the struggle between new media and traditional media. Traditional media such as newspapers and magazines have great influence. will get lower and lower."
"You mean the Internet?"
"Or big data scoring."
Dunn shrugged.
The preferences of a single film critic, or the preferences of ten or a hundred film critics, are not enough to judge the quality of a movie.
But websites like IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes are different~www.novelhall.com~ often have more than 10,000 reviews, even hundreds of thousands, millions.
Then through a special calculation method, a score that can be generally referred to by movie fans is given.
With the help of the Internet, big data will erase some personalities, and the stylized and professional film reviews of the past will be greatly ineffective.
Nick James seemed very unwilling, "Some of the big-selling movies last year... I'm sorry, I can only say this. A movie like "Pirates 2: Soulcatcher" will make more than $1 billion at the box office, this is a movie backwards!"
Tang En said in disapproval: "There is no need to be on the line. It is true that in the eyes of many film critics, the core of "Pirates Alliance 2" is not deep enough and not good enough. However, this is the law of the development of movies. The birth of a movie is a hundred years old. Is that how you came here?"
“The invention of cinema itself brought great excitement to the public as a stunning simulation of reality, followed by years of tedious stories. Over time, silent film developed into a brilliant art form, and it ended up being destroyed by the advent of the sound film, which is a more realistic simulation of reality.”
“The films of the early 1930s took a big step backwards precisely because audiences were willing to put up with bland stories for the pleasure of listening to the actors. Then the sound film finally improved in the level of power and beauty, and the result was again Troubled by the invention of color, stereo, widescreen, and now computer-generated imagery."
"The current computer special effects are just repeating the development law of movies in the past 100 years. In a few years, when the audience is used to computer special effects, they will naturally pursue movies with higher taste. Market demand determines the supply relationship. It takes a while for Hollywood to learn and adjust."
"no need to worry."
