"The movie is a dream that makes people intoxicated by light and shadow. "Inception" is a dream in a dream. The plot of the movie is intertwined, the logic is rigorous and the tension is not lost. The length of the movie for more than 10 minutes will not give people a feeling of mediocrity."

Sitting on the sofa and looking at the actor's son who was in his twenties and still accomplished nothing, Clint Eastwood said slowly, "As the leading actor, Matthew presented the most exciting acting skills in the movie. The best director, the best actor, and the best story, and this best dream has been created."

Scott Eastwood seemed to agree with his old man's words and said, "It is easy to see a movie like "Inception" that even if you understand that it is mysterious, you will be able to play five stars without hesitation!"

If Inception is not a good movie, I really don't know what a good movie is. He has also watched this movie in the theater. I don't know anything else, but Inception is definitely the most exciting movie he has seen this year, and even one of the best movies he has seen in the past five years.

Clint Eastwood suddenly sighed and said, "Matthew Horner is even better than I thought."

As an actor, when Scott Eastwood heard his old man praise another actor in person, he felt a little uncomfortable and said softly, "I admit that Inception is a masterpiece, a truly ambitious blockbuster. Sometimes it doesn't feel like a movie. It makes people enter another world. The screen of the theater is like a dream in your mind. In Hollywood today, this is simply incredible..."

Speaking of this, he suddenly turned around, "But, what is done is Christopher Nolan! Director Nolan is a director who weighs business and art very well. The ski chases and weightless fights in action scenes are all great highlights, and the special effects are almost perfect. Does this have anything to do with Matthew Horner?"

This question sounds very reasonable in terms of which aspect. After all, the director, producer, actor's performance and other factors are secondary factors.

Clint Eastwood understood his son's thoughts, suddenly smiled and said lightly, "Matthew Horner chose Christopher Nolan and Inception instead of films like "Alien Battlefield". This alone is enough to show his strength!"

Scott Eastwood was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what his old man meant.

"An actor, especially a star actor." Clint Eastwood only explained one sentence, "The role choice made will directly determine his future success or failure!"

Hearing this, Scott Eastwood gradually understood, "Can Matthew Horner make the right choice every time?"

Clint Eastwood nodded slightly, "This is also a kind of ability, and it is a very powerful ability for the actors."

He was an actor in his early years, but later he basically became a director, and he had a deep understanding of these.

"No one can tell whether a film is successful or failed before it is released." Clint Eastwood knew that he could not shelter his son for the rest of his life, which is also an education. "As the commander of the crew, at least the shooting commander, the director has an advantage over the actors."

He was not loud, but he was as tough as a cowboy. "If an actor wants to make a prediction, he must start from multiple levels such as director, producer, script, crew plan and crew team, conduct a comprehensive analysis, and then make a judgment."

Scott Eastwood grinned, "How many people can do this?"

Clint Eastwood stretched out a hand and raised five fingers, "No more than five popular Hollywood actors can do this now, Matthew Horner is the best one."

Thinking that Matthew Horner has not yet failed to star in a film, Scott Eastwood's psychological discomfort disappeared instantly, and he couldn't help but nod.

Although life is rich, there are serious lack of motivation to climb up, I still have some basic understandings after long-term family influence.

And as a typical second-generation star, he is not as a bastard as Robert Downey Jr. or Angelina Jolie when he was young.

Clint Eastwood said at this time, "Maybe you don't understand. Matthew Horner is a three-choice choice at a time when he works with Christopher Nolan."

"Choose one of three?" Scott Eastwood asked curiously, "What are the other two options?"

Clint Eastwood said slowly, "One is the Wachowski brothers... "Cloud Map" directed by the siblings, and the other is "Alien Battlefield" directed by Andrew Stanton."

Scott Eastwood's eyes widened, "What?"

At this moment, except for surprise, he simply didn't know what to say.

"These two projects are both first-line commercial productions, with Wachowski brothers... brothers and Andrew Stanton's famous directors." Crete Eastwood shook his head. "Originally, the male protagonist who chose the two projects was Matthew Horner, but after some inspection and competition, Matthew Horner voluntarily gave up these two projects and then chose Christopher Nolan's "Inception".

Scott Eastwood came back to his senses and said, "If I remember correctly, "Cloud Map" and "Alien Battlefield" are both adapted movies. The original work itself is a science fiction novel with a wide influence. If it were me, I would definitely choose an adapted movie instead of an original movie with huge risks."

Clint Eastwood nodded slightly, original commercial films have long declined, especially in the field of mainstream commercial films for big productions.

“Not everyone can make such a wise choice,” Clint Eastwood added. “Scott, Matthew Horner is not an ordinary person.”

Scott Eastwood nodded slightly, "So, dad, you accept his invitation?"

Clint Eastwu is not shy about his son. "In recent years, I have accumulated enough fame and reputation in films, but I am older and can't direct a few movies in the future. Choosing a random film may drag me down."

He touched his nose, "Matthew Horner's invitation is a very good choice, not only to avoid risks at the greatest possible level, but also to pay off the favors I owe him."

Scott Eastwood knows that his old man is getting more conservative as he grows older. For a conservative old director, Matthew Horner is indeed the first choice.

"I'll say hello to Matthew," Clint Eastwood said suddenly, "for you a main character in the film."

"I..." Scott Eastwood opened his mouth and finally said nothing.

Compared with the famous second-generation stars in the circle, he is a type with a not very rebellious personality and knows that his father is thinking about him.

Clint Eastwood continued, "With this film, with Matthew and I joining forces, the chances of success are over 80% and the chances of selling well at the box office are also very high. With the main role of a successful commercial production as the basis, your future journey will be much smoother."

Seeing Scott Eastwood want to speak, Clint Eastwood raised his hand to stop him and said, "I'm about to be eighty and can't protect you for a long time. You should go and make a breakthrough."

Compared to his eldest son Kyle Eastwood, this son is somewhat unprofitable. He has only had this son in his fifties, and he is inevitably a little spoiled. Now Scott Eastwood is twenty-five years old and can't continue to be confused.

Scott Eastwood asked, "Will Matthew Horner agree?"

"My relationship with Matthew has always been good." Clint Eastwood said calmly, "He will give me the old man this little face."

He waved his hand, "If you have time, read more of the autobiography of "American Sniper". Also, pay more attention to Matthew's news."

Scott Eastwood nodded and left Clint Eastwood's study.

When he came to the living room, he felt a little ashamed when he thought of what his father had just said. Although he was also a well-known actor, he was 25 years old and had not yet made a name for himself in Hollywood.

Matthew Horner is not a few years older than him, and the gap is indeed one in the sky and one in the ground.

When it comes to resources, he is many times better than Matthew Horner when he started. Clint Eastwood's son, who doesn't give him any face when he says it? Look at Matthew Horner, a poor boy from Texas...

Thinking of this, Scott Eastwood was not jealous, but instead felt a sense of admiration. People from this kind of background can climb to the position of top Hollywood superstars, and they are really capable!

Anyway, he definitely can't compare.

Not only him, just think about Matthew Horner's experience, and think about the popular stars who are still active, such as Tom Cruise, Johnny Depp, Robert Downey Jr., Leonardo DiCaprio, etc., which of these people can compare to Matthew Horner?

The facts are very obvious. Even he can see clearly. Nowadays, Hollywood male stars are divided into three groups, unknown actors, celebrity actors... and Matthew Horner!

Not only him, but even his father and a few siblings, think that Matthew Horner is no longer a traditional Hollywood superstar.

Looking at the entire history of Hollywood's development, there is no other person who can continue to succeed like Matthew Horner.

As long as success is successful, more capital will be brought, and more people as proud as his father Clint Eastwood will be willing to follow him.

Scott Eastwood felt that Matthew Horner did not represent a person, but a phenomenon called "success".
