Once Upon a Time In Hollywood

  Chapter 193 Logic Baocai, Clear Trouble, Director is Online

After the "Spider-Man" celebration banquet ended, Roland and the truck driver buried themselves in the Rosarito photography base in Baja California. Although "Titanic" is the epic masterpiece with the highest budget at the moment, for Roland, It's not that difficult, and it belongs to the type that doesn't bother you or work hard. In other words, this is simply the simplest movie he has made in the past six years, a vivid character that can be created without any effort.

Take the script reading meeting as an example. When the truck driver gathered the crew members together and asked them to read through the more than one hundred pages of the script, Roland and Kate sitting together even lowered their heads. The voice lines are already tired and crooked; when I read the first encounter when I jumped into the sea, the two people who turned over the script when they were idle and bored in the past six months were directly out of script. Under the eyes of the public, Roland, who never flirts The perfect interpretation of the power of love at first sight.

And then the deck talk scene, that is, the scene where Ruth was wearing a light yellow dress with fluffy hair, and found out that Jack was a painter for the first time. Liang, before the truck driver took out the script of the shot, they reacted instinctively. While Jack was boasting, his eyes kept focusing on Ruth's face. When Ruth raised her head and asked, she looked at Jack. , Jack, who didn’t want to be discovered by the other party that he was peeking, naturally lowered his head, glanced at the script that served as a painting, glanced lightly, and raised his head again the moment he got the answer, continuing to admire Ruth’s beauty.

It is no exaggeration to say that the two who have been greedy for each other from the very beginning vividly explained in front of the truck driver what a real Yangou is, and since the script study meeting, the lines attributed to them have not been accepted by the truck driver. interrupted.

  The following dining scene is just a repetition of everything in reality. Ruth introduces everyone at the dinner party to Jack.

  The old man just put his hands in his pockets and looked at them with a smile. If Arnold Schwarzenegger was present, he would definitely tell the truck driver’s true thoughts—the picture was so natural that he couldn’t fault it.

  If it's just these, then forget it.

  In the scene where Ruth rejects Jack, the two of them who got off the script just stared at each other affectionately.

   Without any so-called facial management skills in performance, Ruth, who refused Jack’s confession, had pain in her eyes under the pretext of marriage, while Jack, who was rejected, had a blank face and dead eyes.

   To be honest, not everyone can play Sima face well.

  Although Wang Dahammer is funny, it is a witty Internet fan. After losing his burden, he also lost his soul.

   And Maltai-Ruoxi...

   Isn’t this an adjective juxtaposed with empty-eyed, dull-eyed, ashen-hearted, and loveless?

In the past, the affectionate gaze played by Roland would mean that the appearance was acceptable, but now, it is really a show in the eyes, or in other words, when the true feelings are in place, all the performances will come naturally. .

  Just like what Hanks taught Roland before, emotions drive performance, and others can't find faults.

  At the same time, feelings can also be replaced, and there is no need to make yourself bitter and bitter.

  Because of this, when talking about this scene with Kate, Roland directly invoked the emotions of walking on the streets of New York with the other party that day, reminiscing about his youth, tasting the sweetness around him, and his eyes naturally turned red.

   Seeing Roland in this state, Kate, who was driving the performance, also thought of not wanting to be separated from Roland, instinctively raised her hand to wipe, but with her movements, the two created an atmosphere of parting in an instant.

  Kate grinned in pain, and Roland, who was full of numbness, directly raised his hand and pulled her into his arms.

  Just when they were about to kiss to cover up their mistakes, the truck driver with his hands in his pockets felt like he was on a roller coaster, and his mind was full of tiger and wolf words...

  From the satisfaction of seeing the two of them 'naturally', to the joy of 'love at first sight', followed by the surprise of 'mutual maintenance', and then the beeping face of 'painful parting'...

   Grab the grass!

  You two matched the words well, why did you suddenly stuff Lao Tzu’s mouth full of dog food?

  Now is the script study session!

   It's not for you to empathize with the show!

  What the **** are two people looking at affectionately playing at the same time and then kissing?

   Hurry up and get out of here!

   Get out of the way!

  I don’t want to see you guys!

Then-

  Before half of the script was read, the two core protagonists were kicked out of the script study meeting by the director.

   While the truck driver kicked Roland out of the meeting room, he also shouted loudly—

   "Kate, if you "Nogood" once in the real shot, I'll hit Roland once with a stick! Roland, if you "Nogood" once in the real shot, I'll hit you twice with a stick!"

   "Hey, hey, can you be reasonable? She's 'Nogood', why are you beating me?"

   Roland, who got kicked, slapped his **** with his backhand. He felt that he was simply a friend of Little Question Mark.

   "Also, why do I get beaten twice when I 'Nogood' once?"

But before Kate smiled and pulled Roland away, the truck driver who had just entered the meeting room appeared again after hearing this, and shouted: "Kate 'Nogood', I beat you because I beat you, you Her body hurts, her heart hurts! Hit once hurts two! This deal is too good! And you 'Nogood' beat you twice, because in this movie, Kate's acting mistakes can only be caused by you! Since I shouted Can't get her 'Nogood', but I can beat you one more time to achieve real balance!"

   Grab the grass! This is really a genius of logic!

   Roland was dumbfounded.

  Seeing that the two were about to 'fight' because of this, Kate suddenly laughed and hugged Roland's waist, and pushed him away from the scene, "Okay, okay, don't you argue with James, okay?"

While comforting Roland, Kate also said to the truck driver without looking back: "James, don't be angry, I'll go back and educate him, and make sure that there will be no mistakes when the filming starts! Uh... If you make a mistake, you still hit him Bar…"

  The truck driver immediately rolled his eyes when he heard this.

  Looking at the two people who were gradually moving away, he snorted softly and laughed.

   Within two seconds, he went back to the conference room with a straight face, organized the rest of the people, skipped the male and female protagonists, and conducted the final reading.

  Is he really angry?

Do not make jokes…

  He just didn't want to waste time here.

  Movies are different from TV dramas. Characters in TV dramas can be shaped like flesh and blood through a lot of playing time, accumulation of a lot of events, and a lot of verbal expressions, so the performance requirements for actors are relatively low.

But for movies, due to time and space constraints, the actors' interpretation of the characters in the play, and finding out the relationship between the characters they show and other characters, these tasks have to be prepared before the filming starts, not to mention, Now this kind of film film is extremely expensive, so the script study meeting is actually an overall assessment before filming.

  The director needs to use the limited time to solve the problems that arise, instead of relying on countless fumbles and reshoots to make a final decision like Sunglasses King, and this kind of preparation is actually responsible for the film itself.

"Titanic" is indeed played by Roland and Kate, but their state has already surpassed the goal of the script study meeting. It's better to skip them and review others, which can save time, effort and money.

  Of course, this is also the trust after many years of acquaintance.

After cooperating with "Terminator 2" and "Spider-Man" in a row, the truck driver already knew that Roland was a talented but serious guy, who could see the late autumn from a leaf, and see the whole leopard from a glimpse, since he and Kate read There are no faults in these passages, so you can start shooting directly. Not only that, starting from "Jurassic Park", the half-year preparation time for each film is also a place for truck drivers to rest assured, although Roland is The most expensive male star in Hollywood, but it's really worth it.

  After all, the box office appeal is there, and the attitude and time for careful preparation are also there.

  However, although the truck driver was assured of Roland, Roland did not 'trust' the truck driver.

  After getting kicked and kicked off the stage, Roland didn't go back to the hotel with Kate, nor did he go shopping in the town with Kate. Instead, he hugged Kate and wandered around the studio with her.

  Swipe left, turn right, look up, aim down...

   Wearing sunglasses, he looks like a supervisor.

   Well, this is actually beauty in the eye of the beholder.

  If it were a truck driver to evaluate, Roland, who was wandering around, would be a shit-stirring stick.

  Why?

  Because he is here to pick a prick!

Either discussing the design drawings with the supervisor, discussing the composition arrangement with the set designer, asking the costume designer to open the costume warehouse, or inspecting various shooting equipment in front of the prop designer. It is no exaggeration to say that what he does is the producer's job. manual labor.

   And who is the producer of the crew?

  James Cameron and Jon Landau.

   Is Roland exceeding his authority and provoking?

   Of course it counts.

   No one cares?

  No one dares!

At first, Kate thought that Roland couldn't get rid of face, so she wanted to find something for the truck driver, so she let him wander around, thinking that she would go back when her temper passed, but after going to multiple departments, She felt that something was wrong with Roland.

   This guy, is he really looking for something?

   "Roland, I'm tired, shall we go back?" Kate gave the staff an apologetic look, and said to Roland, "Accompany me back to change my shoes. Let's go downtown to eat taco at noon?"

   "Huh?" Roland turned his head and glanced at her. Seeing that she was still in good spirits, he said, "Can you stay a little longer?"

   "Wait until I finish reading these."

   While speaking, he also pointed to the list of documents on the table.

Looking at the document as high as a hill, Kate's face changed, and she winked at the staff present, signaling them to go out, then she moved to Roland's side and said, "James drove us away, and we are going to leave again. He's not mad at us, he just thinks we're qualified, so he doesn't need to stay there to waste time, now, shall we go back?"

   Upon hearing this, Roland understood that Kate had misunderstood him.

He didn't answer right away, but took out the prop master's collection book, pointed to the backpack that Jack was carrying when he boarded the boat, and said, "There was no military backpack of this kind in 1912. This is the style after World War I." At the same time, he turned a few more pages, pointed to a coin and said: "This Roosevelt coin was produced after the death of Theodore Roosevelt. Theodore Roosevelt died in 1919, and the Titanic The USS sank in 1912, so that's wrong too, and..."

Seeing Roland continue to find faults in the way of convincing, Kate's brows gradually closed. Seeing that Roland still had the urge to continue talking, she directly pressed one hand on the document list, glanced at the door, and then After looking back, he said in a low voice, "Roland, if you feel that James kicked you, it's embarrassing, let's go back and talk about it?"

   "If you are angry, let's call him out at night and say, don't fight in the crew?"

The two chatted a lot since that day's walk. The truck driver frightened Roland during the filming of "Terminator 2", and secretly used the cheater from the filming of "The Abyss" during the filming of "Spider-Man". Manipulation... Kate has heard all these things.

  At that time, Roland used a dissatisfied and complaining tone, so Kate always thought that although the two had a good relationship, they also held grudges.

   Now—

  When Roland broke the record in a row, the truck driver even used him in front of the crew (Kate thought)...

   For A+list, this is absolutely embarrassing.

  So after Roland babbled to find out the various problems of the crew's service, Kate became a little worried. Roland wanted to get back the scene.

  Before the movie was shot, the leading actor and director were torn apart?

  Then don’t shoot this scene, everyone can shoot it and then break it up!

   Because of this, Kate wanted to take Roland away, and solve the problem in private.

   As for the BUG of serving Huadao?

  My God! What movie will be perfect without BUG?

   Doesn't exist, okay!

   But when Roland saw the caring eyes of the other party and heard the slightly comforting 'Please', he knew that this girl had been thinking about things from her own perspective.

It's a pity that Roland, who wanted to frighten her with a straight face, couldn't hold back when Kate stared at him, and laughed directly. This kind of nonsensical behavior made Kate wrinkle her forehead and raised her hand to pat him. For a moment, "Can you be serious now?"

"Okay, Okay, I don't mean to make trouble, okay?" Roland pressed his hands falsely, made a calm gesture, and then called back all the staff at the door, telling them to notify the truck driver that he had something to do with him .

  When the truck driver came over from the study meeting with a confused expression on his face, Kate, who had thought that the other party would turn his back on him after seeing the fault Roland picked out, saw the old man's arrogant side.

The truck driver first glared at Roland, who was causing trouble for him, and then kicked open the door in a hurry, telling the guys at the door to call the producer Jon Landau over, and when he arrived, the truck driver The driver scolded his head and covered his face, and asked the other party to quickly change the wrong props, including the tableware used for the dinner scene.

  That's right, Roland didn't mean to be picky at all, but wanted to clear all the troubles in his memory before the shooting started.

   You know, in Roland's previous life, the truck driver cut out the whole scene for reshoots because the tableware of the dinner scene didn't have the logo of White Star Company on it. This alone cost an extra two million.

   In fact, the extra two million has nothing to do with Roland. Fox pays the bill anyway, but the time wasted for reshoots is a real waste for Roland.

  If he himself forgot, then forget it, but now he still remembers...

   It's a pity that Roland "good people are not rewarded".

  Because Roland was fed a mouthful of sweet and sour dog food, and then Roland picked out a bunch of faults, so the arrogant old man of the truck driver did not express any excessive thanks in words.

   Not only that, before this guy left, he looked at the two of them deeply with his mouth curled up.

  I saw Roland standing behind Kate, with his arms on her shoulders, hanging down, his fingers subconsciously playing with the belt around his waist, his lips moved slightly, and whispered in Kate's ear—

  “He looks like he is angry on the surface, but he is very happy in his heart, because the BUG was solved before shooting, which is a good thing for an old man with obsessive-compulsive disorder.”

   "The old man won't be mad at me, and I won't be mad at him, unless, of course, he calls me ugly."

"Don't look at him being angry all the time. In fact, he is very arrogant. The more you get used to him, the more he will act like this. If you don't get used to him and ignore him, he will come back in a while. I'm looking for you."

   Kate hugged Roland's arm and looked at the truck driver with a smile on her cheek. Although there was unknown embarrassment in her pupils, the movement of biting her lips was a bit mischievous.

  Of course, this is not the point, the point is the sour smell...

   Simply!

   Wave your sleeves, don't you take away a cloud?

   Phew!

  It is obviously sweet and greasy!

   In the state of "my mother is about to be killed", the truck driver left the scene in "angry".

  During the preparation time for the final sprint, he didn't even want to meet the two guys!

  Because of this, on the first day of filming, faced with Roland’s move to observe and learn from the set, the truck driver directly shouted ‘JesusFuckingChrist! ’—You still want me to eat sweets when you’re filming a solo scene?

  Do your big head dream!

  Of course, that being said, after the two quarreled for a few words, the matter passed with the wind as Roland sat in front of the monitor and got up. Since Roland wanted to learn...

   Phew!

   Over the years, have they taught him all they could teach him? This guy obviously wants to see Kate perform!

Can't drive Roland away? The truck driver didn't let Roland relax. He directly shot the guide tube and the draft of the sub-shot on Roland's thigh, and then lifted his chin slightly. It's always okay, right? '

   Facing such a generous truck driver, Roland was overjoyed.

   All along, it was the old man Spielberg who gave him the opportunity to practice, and the truck driver gave him a beep.

   And now, this guy is finally moved by his studiousness?

  Since the opportunity was presented to him, how could Roland give up?

Grabbing the spare radio earphones, Da Ma sat there, as if he felt that something was wrong. After looking around, he found that something was wrong. He decisively snatched the peaked cap from the truck driver's head and put it on. on my head...

Eh! The equipment is ready.

  Director Alan, officially launched!

Note: ①Truck driver Aojiao is what the governor said. If the relationship between the two is really good, then when the truck driver is angry, just ignore him, because after neglecting him, he will come to the door with a smile in a while, but if Apologize to him, it's over, this guy will ignore you for a long time. ②Reshooting the banquet scene for tableware cost an extra two million yuan. Many people should know that this guy would take the initiative to correct any bugs that could be corrected. When the movie was released in 1997, due to astrological problems, the truck driver He received a letter from an astronomer, and the other party told him the correct result, and after the 3D version was released, he really spent money to redo the CGI.
