King of Hollywood

Chapter 87: Less Fast Change Than Plan

“Clink, get over here and stand up the lights! And you, um... what was your name again? All right, Brett, move this thing over there. Tell them to clear the area. Now! ”

With the assistant director's voice and the busy scene in the motel room, the crew of the Low Fiction crew, under the supervision of a assistant director, are setting the scene for the next shoot, while Adrian, the director, is on the other side and Bruce? Willis is talking about the play...

As Adrian predicted, John falling into the valley? Travolta promised to come down just a few minutes of reflection, and only got a $100,000 film reward - of course, the share of the box office was still to be written into the contract, after all, he was still a famous big star, and he didn't get anything, just as the box office failed.

Adrian didn't pay too much attention, no one but him would know how many boxrooms the movie would get, and Travolta had already performed at the lowest price without sharing, which was really against the rules, so it just pressed down the proportion of the share.

Samuel? The same goes for Jackson, who has just come out of nowhere and is working with the famous ghost director in the circle, so he has no opinions about the conditions. Just Bruce? Willis, while it's not yet a strong popularity two years later, the price is not low, and it's $7 million straight away. Adrian naturally refuses to accept it, so why can't the cost be higher than the original cost? So after a few negotiations, Willis was finally asked to cut the film to 3 million, at the cost of splitting up some of the box offices, but at a lower cost than Tel Lavorta.

Seems like a loss, and if everything goes well, Bruce definitely gets more than 4 million. But Adrian doesn't think so. It's an opportunity to have a good relationship with Bruce. He sees the agents of Travolta, Jackson, and Willis, and if he can dig them up, it will help his broker company a lot.

“Anxiety and anger, your feelings are impatient and angry, and there's some panic, because your father left you the golden watch, which is very important to you. But you can't let it out completely because your woman is here, even though you're angry that she forgot to bring the gold watch, even though you're thinking in your heart: Oh, this stupid woman! But you still love him.” Adrian made a gesture explaining.

“Ed, do you think this is okay?” Willis muttered and said so.

He closed his eyes and brewed lower emotions, suddenly raising his head and breathing suddenly, his shoulders and stomach fluctuated sharply up and down, his hands also raised and his fists opened, such emotions lasted for a few seconds before he slowly calmed down.

“Excellent!” Adrian clapped his hands and praised, "That's it, you did well, Bruce, the guys who said you were a bad actor should jump off the Golden Gate Bridge. ”

“This is outrageous, Ed.” Willis touched his sparse hair and laughed, “I'm glad you're satisfied. ”

“Well, here we go.” Adrian saw the assistant director's "Everything's Ready” gesture against him and shot Willis on the shoulder and walked over to the camera.

All footage will be shot outside this time, and all you need is a motel, wine, restaurant, grocery store, basement, etc. Renting these places in the suburbs is much cheaper than setting up a studio. The only trouble is that it needs to be moved over to the past, and it's easy to get around if the wine and restaurant are too close to each other.

Adrian would have liked to go to the restaurant where Kate and I were robbed before to film the robbery scene, but after careful reflection, the security there still hasn't improved much, and the two robbers from the last robbery have not been caught yet, * * the police are not very good, so forget it.

Now we're shooting the second of three stories: The Golden Watch. Willis plays Butch, a boxer who plays underground, and he has a gold watch that his father left him, and he attaches great importance to this gold watch and stays with him everywhere. This time, the gangster Marsha gave him a sum of money to fake boxing in the next fight. Butch falsely promised to put all the money on himself and then beat the other guy to death alive in the game, rolling up a lot of money trying to take his girlfriend away. However, her girlfriend left her most valued gold watch at home, and Butch had to go back and get it. She ran into Marsha, who was waiting for the rabbit at his house, and a series of strange things happened, and he and Marsha reconciled and left with the money.

In fact, the first thing Adrian wanted to film was the third story, "The Situation of Bonnie," which was basically indoors, and the restaurant scene could be shot for the last time. But Willis had only two weeks, and he had another movie to shoot, so Adrian had to shoot Gold Watch first.

In fact, the main scene of the story is also indoors, with three main locations: motels, grocery stores and their basements, and Butch's house. But some of these are the chase fights between Marsha and Butch, and the scene needs a lot of temporary actors to shoot in front of a lot of people on Sunny Street, which is very troublesome to deal with.

Luckily, at least Willis gave him a surprise that this big, big guy wasn't as rough as he looked, like the thermal scene in the motel, where he showed the gentleness of the character just right in body language, without letting Karina play? Pramoh felt uncomfortable.

Unfortunately, his appearance is slightly... I don't know how to say it, it's very tough, the faces of all four quarters are like a knife carved out, although the eyes are a bit small but give people a sense of perseverance, no wonder he will be famous in "Tiger Gall Dragon Wei" as a tough man. But precisely because of that, too many tough guys are limited in their image, and trying other characters can make the audience feel uncoordinated, and for a long time they have been sealed with a paralyzed title.

Okay, forget that. After three days of shooting the motel scene, Adrian started preparing for the next scene. It's supposed to be a grocery store, a chase, and finally Butch's play, because in Butch's house, there's a shot shot of Travolta by Willis, and you put the part here in the end, and you can continue shooting Travolta's footage after Willis finishes shooting.

But after thinking about it, Adrian decided to shoot the chase first. Anyway, the shorter the shot, the better the sooner the moon is finished. However, the plan never changed quickly, whether long-term or ad hoc, and the day after Adrian started filming the chase, the 64th Oscar nomination list came out.
