"To be precise, he is very clever and full of wisdom."
"David, when did you become so good at praising people?"
"Really, if you don't believe me, give me the mirror."
Seeing the serious look on the other's face, Catherine handed David the dressing mirror she was carrying.
"Can you see your own eyes?"
"I saw it, what's wrong?"
Of course, there's a reason why I'm showing you. Catherine's eyes are very special; they are long and narrow, with delicate hooks at the inner and outer corners. The slightly upturned corners give her a cat-like, lazy look. Paired with amber-colored brown pupils, they have a clear and lively feel. The depth of her eye sockets is moderate, creating a visually balanced and relaxed look without being abrupt.
After listening to the other party's analysis, Catherine remained silent for a while before saying incredulously, "Oh my god, why do I feel like what you said makes a lot of sense?"
,
“That’s because I’m right,” David added. “Also, do you have mild, intermittent strabismus?”
"What does this mean?"
"It's just that my eyes occasionally deviate outwards."
""
"Really?" Catherine turned to look at him, somewhat puzzled. "Do I have this condition?"
"Yeah, it happens occasionally, but it doesn't have much of an impact," David comforted her, putting a hand on her shoulder. "Occasional eye misalignment actually makes your eyes more penetrating and less dull."
"Really?" Hearing the disbelieving tone in her voice, David leaned closer and gently kissed Catherine's left eye. "Of course it's true. You have to believe me. I wouldn't lie to you."

After Catherine opened her left eye, which had been forced closed, she felt that her eyelashes were slightly moistened by the other person's lips, and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
"Okay, then I'll believe you. What else?"
"In addition, your bone structure is more dignified and elegant, with a natural calm aura, so those loud and frivolous roles are not very suitable for you."
"That's why I'm very suitable for playing intelligent female characters."
"Although what you just said sounds like self-praise, it is indeed true that you are very suitable for that kind of intelligent screen image."
""
David casually hooked her chin with his finger and sincerely praised her, "Your eyes sometimes sparkle with cunning, sometimes hide stories, and have an air of mystery and intelligence that allows the audience to perceive the character's dynamism at first glance, laying a very good external foundation for creating a sense of wisdom. That's my analysis of you, Cathy."

"Is it pretty?" Catherine suddenly asked.
"nice."
"Then do me a favor."
"What?" Her cheek twitched. She pulled the corner of her lips to the left. "When you kissed my eye just now, my lipstick smudged a bit. Can you reach out and wipe it off for me?"
David looked closely but couldn't see any marks. Besides, the dressing mirror had been put away long ago, and she was in this position, so how could she possibly see it? So David cooperated by stretching out his finger and pressing it against her lips. "Is it here?"
'
"At the midpoint."
David was curious about what tricks she was going to play, so he stretched out his arm and pressed his thumb almost entirely against her lower lip. "Here?"
'
"Mmm." She responded vaguely, then suddenly lowered her head slightly, placed her tongue under his fingertip, and her soft, egg-custard-like lips took his thumb into her mouth, licking and sucking it in.
"What are you doing?"
'
A pleasant, tingling sensation traveled through his mind, and David almost couldn't help but groan. "Even if I just praised you and made you feel good, it doesn't have to be like this."
""
Catherine remained silent for the time being, only licking and sucking, her nimble tongue seemingly able to trace even the finest fingerprints.
"You're absolutely right," she said with a slight smile, biting David's knuckle with her white teeth. "So good that I couldn't help but reward you this way. How about it? Do you like it?"
'
"Comfortable, very comfortable."
If you had put in that much effort that night, I would have felt even more comfortable.
David thought to himself, "But there's plenty of time. I'll be able to experience it someday."
"David."
"What's wrong?"
'
I'm happy that you praised me for being smart.
"Yes, as long as you're happy, I'm happy too," David replied honestly, in a cheerful mood.
"However, I feel that I can still try more diverse roles on screen."
Catherine pursed her lips, temporarily pushing his fingertips away. "Playing yourself too much gets boring."
"Of course," David said, bringing his hand to his lips and gently sucking away her saliva. He smiled and said, "Making a movie is definitely more fun if you have to portray other people's lives. What kind of role would you like to play?"
'
"Didn't you just finish filming 'Dances with Wolves'?"
"Yeah, but it's okay, I'm not too tired. I just need to rest for a couple of days."
,
"Have I caused you any trouble?"
"No, not at all," David laughed. "I'm just having trouble finding inspiration. Tell me about the kind of female character you'd like to play, and maybe that will inspire me to create another script."
""
"Really? Okay, I'll tell you then."

"Go ahead and tell me, but I'm not omnipotent," David warned in advance, "Don't laugh at me if I can't write it."
"I refuse." Catherine chuckled. "I never miss an opportunity to mock you. However, the role I'm considering isn't too complicated, but I'll deliberately make things difficult for you."
,
Looks like I'll have to perform well in bed too, otherwise if Catherine laughs at me, David will probably be so ashamed he'll want to commit suicide.
"I want to play a role—well," Catherine thought for a moment and then came up with an idea, "a Hollywood actress."
""
"What?"
"I said I want to play a Hollywood actress, is that okay?" Catherine explained, "Don't you always say that I have the aura of a Hollywood Golden Age actress?"
Yes, he did say that Catherine combined the qualities of many actresses from the Golden Age.
She possesses the radiant sexiness of Rita Hayworth, the elegant undertones of Audrey Hepburn, and the independent aura of Katharine Hepburn, making her one of the few actresses today who can recreate the glamour of old Hollywood.
"Well, then tell me why I said that in the first place," David asked after thinking for a moment, resting his chin on his hand. "If you can explain this clearly, I'll write a script specifically for this role for you."
The other party's request wasn't unreasonable. He searched his mind and quickly found a script that met their requirements. However, agreeing too quickly would make him seem too easy, so it would be beneficial to put some pressure on them.
"A high bone structure, a heart-shaped face, and a pointed chin make for a very photogenic appearance, naturally drawing attention."
David looked at the people on stage and gave this evaluation: "Like you, Cathy, you have the charm of a Golden Age actress."
Catherine sized up Madonna, who was the focus of the concert. Madonna had deep-set eyes, clear almond-shaped eyes, and her signature full red lips. Her features were both bright and powerful, and she was indeed as David had said, extremely photogenic.
"You're not going to let her play that role, are you?"
""
"No, how could that be?" David gave her a reassuring smile. "Her personal style is too strong; she's not suitable for this role."
""
"You finished writing it so quickly?"
"The first draft is almost finished, but it still needs some polishing. However, the general framework is basically complete."
The role required the actress to be a star of Hollywood's Golden Age, and in addition to meeting this requirement, the film had to be exceptionally good. David's first thought was "L.A. Confidential."
O
The character played by Kim Basinger, named Lynn, is actually, in a strict sense, just a call girl who looks like a Hollywood Golden Age actress. She's not a real actress; at best, she's just a stand-in for one.
However, after he briefly explained the character's identity to Catherine and asked her if it met her requirements,
"Of course I can. I don't really want to play any female star. If I did, the movie would have to be a biopic. I just want to see if I can portray the temperament of female stars from that era."
That makes things much easier.
David breathed a sigh of relief; otherwise, he really wouldn't have been able to find a Hollywood movie with a script quality comparable to "L.A. Confidential" anytime soon.
