Hollywood legendary director

In the sunset, Nicholas Cage expertly approached Samuel to greet several actors from the crew to drink together.

Today, eight or nine shots were taken in the supermarket. The one-day shooting plan was successfully completed and the crew's working time was close to eight hours.

As long as this speed can be maintained, Lehman believes that it will take another five to six weeks to complete the filming of the material.

Therefore, he did not ask the crew to work overtime when there was plenty of time.

In Hollywood, or the entire United States, with the protection of various association members, it is basically impossible to work unconditionally overtime.

Therefore, working overtime is still a serious issue.

Even in some Western countries, in order to limit the exploitation of employees by companies, overtime taxes are levied.

If it is for Americans to work overtime, in addition to dealing with the guild behind the staff, negotiating the transfer of subsidies that are satisfactory to all parties, and cannot be forced.

After a busy day, the crew sealed up the shooting equipment and basically left the studio.

Lehman organizes the shots by himself, makes some marks, and will use them when editing later.

Beside, Eva was still thinking about the drama with the script.

For her to play a non-positive role, the pressure of acting is still great. If she can't hold on to the play, it is impossible to stop talking about her because Lehman is the director.

In other words, Lehman will therefore be more strict.

So, even if it was a break, she would figure it out by herself.

After all, there are several talented actors in the crew, and her mistakes are always the ones who hold back the filming.

Lehmann is quite satisfied with Eva's attitude. She will not ask for any preferential treatment in the crew, and strives to make progress.

Then, with the increase in lens material, Lehmann had another job at night, which was to start the rough cut of the first edition together, often working late into the night.

Otherwise, how can I say that the most tiring person in the crew is always the director.

There are too many similar trivial facts.

After several days of running-in, the filming schedule of "The Mist" suddenly got up quickly. At the same time, it was divided into two groups, one for the main line and the other for the branch line.

"Cut," Lehman poked his head out from behind the director's monitor. In this scene, religious fanatics, under Eva's command, wanted to snatch Cage's son for sacrifice and calm the anger of death.

"Who... why are you hiding behind and laughing? Is it appropriate for you to smile on such a serious occasion?"

Shooting group shows is not good at this point. The quality of the extras found is uneven, let alone laughter, some people don't move very much, and directly block the seats by themselves and add to their own scenes.

And a small mistake will ruin the entire lens.

As soon as Lehmann spoke, the assistant director decisively criticized him and then readjusted his position.

After a while, the protagonists who finished the makeup also entered the state, and they did it again.

Cage held his son, facing the surging public opinion, in a stance of defending to the death.

The little actor is less than 6 years old and looks very cute.

I believe that after this episode is released, it will arouse the audience's anger towards religious fanatics. After all, if such a child wants to go to live sacrifice, he will definitely hate it no matter how he thinks it.

In this way, if Eva's head is shot to death, it will be a climax of applause.

Then there is a very ironic scene of making birds and beasts scattered.

The props team rented a real pistol-real guns in the United States are cheaper than simulated ones.

Put blank bullets in the pistol, tried a few times and it was completely OK, and then said to a group performer: "Wait when Miss Eva finishes her lines, the moment you look back, you will take out your gun and shoot. Among them A camera will be aimed at your side. You must be careful and fast in your actions, understand?"

The group nodded happily.

"Will it be dangerous?" Lehman asked.

"No, Miss Eva has a blood bag hidden in her body. When she hears the sound, she just breaks it. There will be nothing wrong at all."

Everyone resets, the field notes board is gently pressed down, and the camera instantly captures Eva and the group performer.

"Hand over that child, we only want that child."

The blind followers behind him also pressed toward the child like crazy.

"boom!"

A gunshot sounded.

The crowd suddenly fell silent, and then fled.

Only Eva, who was surrounded, fell to the ground holding her chest...

"Okay, over."

...

...

The filming of "The Mist" was completed very quickly, and the two-month filming plan made may not take that long.

The reason why the shooting was so smooth is mainly due to the wonderful performance of Cage and Samuel.

These two, an actor and an Oscar nomination for best actor, got soft, not to mention that the characters did not have particularly complicated character changes, did not have too much pressure to perform, and even had to stop playing.

As for Eva, the simple role is okay. The experience of acting in several works for so many years is also present, but when I meet a few powerful actors in rival roles, the number of ng starts to increase, compared to Cage etc. People, as an actor, Eva still has a long way to go.

However, she is willing to work hard and can barely maintain the sense of existence of the lens, so that it will not be overwhelmed by a few actors, and even in some scenes, there are very bright performances that can form a certain degree of pressure on Cage.

This is not an easy task.

After all, Cage has been acting for more than 20 years. He was born in the acting family Coppola since he was a child. Under the influence of his ears and eyes, he has already embarked on the path of an actor.

"OK, I'll be here today, and the crew will be off tomorrow." After the last shot, the crew members cheered and began to clean up the set quickly.

"I wish you good luck tomorrow." Crew producer Black ran over and said.

Everyone knows that the reason for Lehman's holiday is that he is going to attend the Golden Globe dinner.

There are no professional voting judges for the Golden Globes, so the difficulty of public relations is very small, and the meaning of dividing the cake is also greater.

Almost famous film crews can get a nomination to join in the fun.

As for "Million Dollar Baby", relying on its excellent reputation and a high box office with a high number of screenings, it broke the average score of 15,000 US dollars in a single library for two consecutive weeks, nominated for the best feature film, best actress, and the most Five awards for excellent male role, best director and best soundtrack.

Although the Golden Globes are too subjective, they are simply entertaining and the gold content is close to nothing, but the ones that deserve to go are paid.

Because some of the organizers are members of the Oscar judges, it can attract good impressions.That's it.

At night, Lyman drove back to his home in Beverly Hills.

Park the car and take Eva upstairs.

The girl was tired from the journey, wriggling her soft body a few times like a caterpillar, and still arched into Lehman's arms.

"I told you not to come back, you don't believe it." Lyman smiled and pinched the fleshy waist of the girl.

"But am I your female companion?" Eva raised her head.

Another night of ecstasy...
