All for the Good of the Movie

Mentioning the film, Henry asked, "I remember your training period was four months, under the tutelage of Master Yuan, a martial arts instructor and film director hired from Hong Kong Island. Are you getting used to it?"

"It's alright, although the training is a bit tough," Charlize Theron replied casually. Keanu Reeves nodded in agreement beside her.

Henry simply looked the two of them up and down, even touching his girl's back and arms. "I think I'll find you a physical therapist to take a look and help with your training."

"Is this necessary? Isn't this just going to cost money again?" Charlize Theron asked.

Henry explained, "The martial arts choreographers in Hong Kong Island are undoubtedly excellent in terms of action design and professionalism. This can be seen from their kung fu films."

"But their training and performance methods are truly life-threatening. Without a relevant foundation, relying solely on hard work and dedication to force yourself to adapt to their training methods can easily lead to injuries."

"If you get injured and can't perform normally, or if your performance isn't ideal, it makes you seem even less professional. KC, you're the same."

"Your neck and shoulders look unusually stiff or tense, not relaxed like a normal person's. Could you also have headaches, numbness or tingling in your upper limbs?"

Keanu Reeves was startled and said, "There have been cases like this lately, is it serious?"

Henry suggested, "Get it checked out by a neurosurgeon. What If...? the symptoms are still in their early stages, hiring a good physical therapist to help with correction won't delay training too much."

"If it worsens, it would be bad if the injury interfered with filming. That's the most serious situation; the pain could be so intense that you can't move. But it's all for the good of the film."

What If...?'s just general advice, a normal adult might not listen to the advice of a friend they're not very close to.

However, from a professional Moral standpoint, Keanu Reeves certainly doesn't want his actions to cause delays in the film's production schedule. In the worst-case scenario, being replaced is not out of the question.

So he readily agreed, nodding and saying, "It seems I'll need to schedule a doctor's appointment for a check-up in the next couple of days. Thanks, Henry."

"I'm just Doctor Zhivago. Find a proper doctor for a checkup; their opinion will definitely be much more professional than mine."

"Doctor Zhivago" is actually a classic 1965 film adapted from the novel of the same name by Russia writer Boris Pasternak. In the United States, it's a self-deprecating term, similar to the United States version of "quack doctor."

"Okay." After nodding, Keanu Reeves returned to his seat as the movie was about to start.

Henry, who was also sitting down, said to the girl next to him, "You too. Although it's not time to see a doctor yet, I think it's essential to have a qualified physical therapist accompany you."

"Remember what I told you was the most important thing in making action movies?"

Charlize Theron thought for a moment, then replied hesitantly, "Don't get hurt?"

"That's right. You can never overemphasize safety and health." After reminding everyone of the importance of action scenes, Henry added, "And I think you should get an assistant, or even assemble a team."

"You can't expect Jane to be by your side all the time, or to handle all the little things yourself. Hiring an unfamiliar makeup artist on short notice is also a bit of a stretch."

Charlize Theron exclaimed in surprise, "Is it really that bad? My makeup today!"

"Well, let's put it this way. Just looking at her face, she's qualified. But the overall look is a bit..."

"How?"

"In short, you'd better hope Cruella de Vil doesn't see you. Otherwise, you can imagine what she'll say."

"Ouch!" Charlize Theron thought to herself, her teeth aching. Even without a lavish team of assistants, she definitely needed to find someone willing to give her advice.

The film, which lasts a total of 144 minutes, is undoubtedly a masterpiece.

The most eye-catching character is undoubtedly Satan, played by El Pacino.

The powerful performance and skillful delivery of the dialogue easily captivated the audience. The dialogue also aptly portrayed a demon's contempt for all things, prompting reflection.

Although Keanu Reeves, who acted opposite him, couldn't match the aura of this Oscar-winning actor, he still portrayed just right how an ordinary person struggles under Satan's schemes.

Charlize Theron also portrayed those who willingly walked into darkness, along with the innocent people around them who were dragged into the Abyss, from being lost and confused to the weak who ultimately couldn't bear it and chose to commit suicide.

Although she was acting in the film, it was also the first time Charlize Theron had seen the entire movie. After the premiere, she returned to Henry's house and nervously asked her boyfriend, "How was the movie?"

"A very good piece of work, and your performance was flawless. It seems that making a profit and getting some good reviews won't be a problem."

The film, * the Devil's Advocate *, based on Henry's memories before his time travel, received a 7.5 rating on IMDb and grossed 150 million dollars at the box office on a budget of 57 million dollars, which is quite an excellent achievement.

Although it's still unknown how this film will perform in the world, it shouldn't be too bad, Henry thought to himself.

Charlize Theron knew that Henry wouldn't blindly praise a film's quality. Besides being her boyfriend, he was also her acting mentor. How could she improve if he couldn't give fair feedback?

Henry's praise made Charlize Theron very proud. Back home, after a few drinks, she happily said, "How was it? It can't be worse than your other big-budget film, can it?"

... Is this supposed to be a comparison with Titanic? Aside from failing to hit an iceberg, it capsized in every encounter. This record stood for over a decade before being broken by James Cameron himself.

Before Henry traveled through time, the top four highest-grossing films in history were Cameron, Marvel, Cameron, and Cameron. Just imagine how outrageous that was.

Marvel's success was built on the groundwork laid by 21 films over 11 years, culminating in Avengers: Endgame. Otherwise, who could possibly defeat the King of the World?

Henry certainly wouldn't complain about his girlfriend at this time. After all, the Titanic was still in the "Hollywood Kid's " supercomputer center, working on computer-generated special effects.

Thinking about how he'd been constantly being pulled into official business by that famous director lately, spending his time squatting at his workstation working on computer effects with a bunch of guys he'd hired, Henry felt like crying.

I've decided right now to pick out a few continuity errors tomorrow and tell Cameron. I'll make that obsessive-compulsive guy lose his appetite and sleep, constantly pulling his hair out, trying to figure out how to fix them.

Don't say you're being malicious; it's all for the good of the movie!
