Hollywood legendary director

Chapter 218 Shooting (2)

As a remote town, Annecy has always been difficult to have a presence.

From economics to culture, from entertainment to sports, it is difficult to find out any obvious characteristics or celebrities and the like.

Except for the locals, perhaps many French people have hardly heard of this place.

Therefore, when a film crew came here to shoot the scene, the residents of the town were all surprised.

After the surprise, there are surprises and expectations.

There is no chance to see a star in this poor country.

At the beginning of the preparations, it was okay. The actors were not in the group again, and everyone had a look at it. But when it was filming, it was different.

"Hey, Ellen, come and help."

Thomas carried the camera, and said to the person who was standing on the sidelines, looking at nothing.

Allen is a set designer. Although his work has been completed, he still feels depressed and ran over to help carry it.

After placing the camera at the designated location, he turned his head to look at the nearby residents who probed their heads.

Each of them has a curious look on their faces, moving around the crew, and their eyes are full of inquiry.

Fortunately, the mayor said not to hinder the filming of the crew, and these residents also followed it very well.

After a while, the actors arrived.

The most noticeable is of course Sophie Marceau.

This is the most well-known celebrity of the French.

People's eyes fell on her, and they learned about Suosuo's poems. Those eyes were not malicious in themselves. After all, it was a novelty for them to be able to see stars offline in another way.

For the person involved, it is not an unbearable problem.

She has long been accustomed to looking like this, and she also actively waved to people and greeted enthusiastically.

It was in this atmosphere that "Micro Love" continued to start shooting.

Residents of the small town are also happy to act as a background board for passersby to cooperate with the shooting.

In addition, there are more residents who did not participate in it and did not miss any opportunity to approach the crew. They took the initiative to help, carrying the costumes and props. For this reason, they could observe how the film was shot up close. , You can also talk to real stars, ask for an autograph or something.

As for the crew, as long as they pay a little labor cost, they can get a large amount of labor, so that the speed of filming is much faster than expected.

I originally planned to stay here for half a month to complete the main filming scenes, but it took only 10 days to finish the filming.

When the crew was about to leave, the residents of the town still wanted to let them stay for two more days. After all, they have never been as lively as they are now. Let alone making movies, many people want to watch the scene seriously. In ball games, you have to go to the neighboring province.

After the "Micro Love" crew left completely, everyone's life was restored to the usual peace.

But Lord Mayor is not idle, he plans to develop it into a tourist area.

That old castle is their development trump card. It happens to have a movie set, and when it is released in the future, it may be able to brag about it and get some fame.

Alas, there is no way. In recent years, the French economy is not very prosperous, and the welfare benefits of citizens are too high. Comparing the two parties, expenditure and income are not proportional.

If you don't want to do anything, do some income generation, what hope is there today, waiting for state relief?

Next, the crew went back to Paris.

Shooting indoor scenes in a studio owned by Europa Pictures.

After the large troops were stationed, they immediately began to set the scene.

On this day, Lehmann was directing the field workers to place props.

Ryan walked over quickly, "Lyman, Luc Besson is here to visit."

"okay, I get it."

After speaking, Lehman ordered a few more words with the team and followed Ryan to the outside of the studio.

From a long distance, I saw Luc Besson walking towards this side with a small belly and a cigarette in his hand.

"Why do you think of coming to see me?" The two shook hands in a friendly manner, and Lyman said with a smile.

"It just happens that I'm okay today. Come around."

This is not a place to talk, Lehman led the way and returned to the set with Luc Besson and Ryan.

It happened that the venue had already been set up, and Lehmann apologized, saying that he was going to shoot, and Luc Besson also expressed his understanding.

While the scene was filmed, the actors went back to remake up, and the staff were busy re-setting.

Luc Besson sat on a chair beside him, while flipping through the script, he turned his mouth in the direction of several actors, and asked Lehman: "Where did you find the actors? It looks fine."

"Just ran into it." Lyman smiled.Of course the other party was talking about Jack Gyllenhaal, except for him, the other Luc Besson had known each other a long time ago.

And now that shooting can be so fast, it is also inseparable from his outstanding performance.Of course, this is true for every cast member.

The reason for mentioning him alone is that Jack Gyllenhaal is a newly added actor, and Luc Besson does not know him either.

For his performance, I feel more impressed.

Although the core of the movie is to tell a good story, it is undeniable that the actors are also the most important part of it, and even under certain circumstances, it is more important than the plot itself.

Take Luc Besson's "This Killer Isn't Too Cold". The story is a good one, but the actor's superb performance also adds a lot.

Of course, Jean-Renault has always been Luc Besson's ace partner. The two didn't know how many works they had taken together. It can be said that he was asked to play as soon as a suitable role became available.The relationship is just like the present Lehman and Heath Ledger. They met from the last days and established a deep friendship.

Luc Besson, as a director, was enthusiastic about watching such a scene, and thinking about the purpose of coming today, he asked quite interestingly: "Lyman, if you have time, can you come over and see for me? ? I recently prepared a project."

"Why, have you made up your mind to seal the guide tube?" Lehmann laughed.

Haha, it's funny to think of this. This guy used to make a big talk in front of the media, saying that he would only make 10 movies in his life.

As a result, when "Interstellar Agents: City of A Thousand Stars" was released, Dunima was the 17th feature film.

I slapped myself in the face.

This is also like our proof: making movies is really addictive and you can't quit.

"Why, this is still my ninth movie."

"Does "Taxi Express" count?"

"I'm just a screenwriter and producer, but not a director, so how can I count on me." Luc Besson was speechless.I only blamed myself for being stupid and insisted on talking nonsense. Now I am undoubtedly very regretful.

Well, still you can play.
