King of Hollywood

Chapter 253: Two Men's Kisses

Montana is located in the northwest of the United States, bordered by Idaho and bordered by Aberda, Canada, and is known for its minerals, petroleum processing and savannahs. Of course, the most famous is Yellowstone National Park, the world's first national park and the most popular and spectacular national park in the United States, where countless families come for vacations every summer.

Though the Broken Back Mountains are not taken in Yellowstone Park, they are not too far away, basically on the Rocky Mountains, so the location is in northwest Montana, and in a small town called Graz, not far from Canada.

Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Exactly, just like the name of the second largest Austrian city, Graz. Of course, this town called Graz has nothing to do with Austria. The town's inhabitants are not Austrian. The reason why they named the town is because Adrian guessed it was randomly flipped through the newspaper at the time of naming it. He thought Graz was a good word, so he used it.

This is very common in the United States, and as long as someone is willing to look in detail, they promise to find the names of famous cities in various countries on the map of the United States, Paris, London, Barcelona, everything. This is also a practice in the history of pioneering in the United States. At that time, when a town is built somewhere, one and a half minutes will not think of a suitable name, so simply use what is already available in the world, so as not to bother.

Of course, this is essentially a small town with thousands of people who would not have been discovered had it not been for the deliberate search. If not for the popularity of the Internet. With the need to come to Montana to pick up the view, Adrian probably wouldn't know, so even if someone else noticed, it would only be a joke.

“Ready, how bright are the lights?” After receiving a positive response from the prop artist, Adrian hurried to the makeup artist and the lighter.

“Looks good," Adrian nodded, looking at the numbers on the photometer, shooting Ralph's shoulder as the test object again: “Let's go, do our best. ”

Montana in mid-March was still somewhat cold. But it also fits the season of Broken Back Mountain, and there's not much rain in this time, which is great for shooting. Everyone's ready. Get old fashioned cowboy outfits. Phoenix and Brad? Once Pete was in position, Adrian made a start gesture on the record.

This was the first scene of Broken Back Mountain, where Ennis and Jack met outside the ranch owner's trailer, and the beginning of the whole movie. In fact, Adrian was going to shoot the grazing scene first. It's just that the original well-connected sheep owner suddenly changed his mind, and the crew couldn't contact anything else at the moment, and considering that both Raven and Pete still needed to grind together, Adrian corrected the plan to shoot from the script.

Gotta admit, whether it's Ralph or Pete. It took a lot of time and effort to get ready, where to go, just like the cowboys did decades ago. And Ennis' silent oligarchy and Jack's diffusion were both well interpreted by the two men in body language in front of the camera, especially as Ralph leaned against the wall with his collar up to retract his neck. And Pete's big back and chunky twins go perfectly with the atmosphere that the whole movie needs to show the character well, and even more rarely, they volunteered both. So, with more experienced actors. The director has to be relatively easy.

Adrian, of course, had done the same before, and although he had mostly studied on the basis of information gathered by his assistants, there was a competent secretary, Ivanka, who, together with references to works from previous generations, was also very accurate in pinching them. For example, everyone knows that men think women are good. It would be rude to measure her directly when you look at her with appreciation, but if you look at a man with that look, you might get an old fist if you do it in the street.

So how do homosexuals appreciate eye-catching people? Measuring indirectly with a mirror, so Jack initially had a lens of Ennis measuring the rearview mirror in the car. Here, Adrian redesigned the plot, and Ennis found out what Jack was doing, but he just pulled the collar and didn't say much.

But it wasn't about showing Ennis' homosexuality, and throughout the novel, Jack was obviously more proactive, he knew he was gay, he accepted the fact, and he fell in love with Ennis. But Ennis wasn't necessarily gay, and without Jack, he might have spent his life in peace after marrying Alma, or in the old saying, even flesh and blood, that Ennis was in love with Jack, not with a man.

So Adrian added a little action here, both to show Ennis' resistance to homosexuality and to the complicated relationship that ensued between the two.

Of course, if the audience sees it that way, that's their business. The scene without that movie is perfect. If you want to find it, you can always find the logical loopholes. Like Broken Back Mountain, the plot seemed to be in perfect harmony, and the two men's hearts and minds and each other's lives and deaths were in place, but since they were so hard inland, why not go to San Francisco?

The coastal climate has always been more relaxed than inland, regardless of the country, and San Francisco has been the home of homosexuals since the 1970s. So if they can't stay in Montana and Texas, they can save a fortune and go to San Francisco together, and there won't be any tragedy.

Well, this is a joke, and if they did, there would be no more "Broken Back Mountain" novels and movies.

“Good, guys, you're all doing great.” Adrian was not stingy enough to praise himself, and not many things went so smoothly from the beginning.

Unfortunately, this did not last very long and was hindered when the first scene ended and the second scene began. The ranch owner's two most starred performances, first naturally Ennis and Jack met, and then the second year Jack wanted to take the opportunity to work for the ranch owner to meet Ennis again. But the rancher had noticed their situation before, so he was driven away with ridicule.

Because there's only Jack's part here, it should be easier to pass than before, but I don't know why, just now, Pete was doing great, and I can't do anything to satisfy Adrian.

“You have to be aware, Brad, that emotions can't be too obvious, and Jack certainly doesn't want anyone, especially the rancher, to find out that he cares too much about Ennis. But at the same time, it cannot be too restrained. You can't see it at all, Jack is not Ennis. Feel the contradiction? That's it!” Adrian is tired of telling Peter a play so he can better mobilize his emotions.

The previous smooth condition, though good, was basically encounterable and undesirable, so he wasn't disappointed by the subsequent shots a few times, so take it easy, and that made him notice some problems.

So, after ng finally passed this lens dozens of times. For the next three or four days, the crew has been wandering around town, shooting pieces of footage, like Ennis' memories, or meeting with some of Jack's more regular people. But privately, after that day, Adrian had Le Rivan and Pete living in the same house. Name it, so that they can further feel the sincere feelings of the two characters.

“Isn't that necessary?” Ralph, who was pulled into the room, asked somewhat depressingly, not how uncomfortable he felt, but how strange it felt to be forced into a room with Pete.

“Very necessary.” Adrian is not welcome at all, "I know you've had a lot of conversations before, and a lot of thoughts, and it worked, and I've seen that. But, obviously, that's not enough, and you're going to have to continue to communicate and cultivate feelings until I think it's okay. ”

“What if you always thought no?” Ralph questioned, though he already knew the answer.

“Then unfortunately, you will always live together, knowing that the shooting is over, even if your girlfriend comes to visit.” Adrian naturally replied, adding, “Sure. Don't fake it. ”

Sprayed around listening honestly to Peteton, and Ralph rolled over the boss's white eyes.

Whatever they thought, it was settled, so the two grown-ups started living together in the crew, and when the news got out, someone would inevitably gaze at them on the set. But the mindset of both people is also good, I don't care about these not malicious eyes, even just wrap them up in front of everyone, look intimate, there is a great feeling of faking them into reality.

Adrian was so weird that after these days of grinding, the end of the weekend, after observing that it was OK, and the sheep were not fully connected, he was ready to shoot the first * *.

“In short, you have to bring yourself into a role where you realize that your husband is wrong, but you're not sure what's going on, and then when she sees that scene by accident, that unusually shocking feeling becomes convincing. I know this may be difficult for you, Kirsten, but I'm sure you can do it.” Adrian said so to Kirsten, who arrived at the crew this morning after the crew had arranged all the props and scenes.

“I can do it.” Short hair, a refreshingly dressed Kirsten nodded her head hard.

It's also the first time the fairy has worked with him in years, so Adrian doesn't use the nickname Kiki, but calls her full name to show importance. Of course, in fact, Adrian hardly uses a nickname on the set when working with her own woman, even if everyone knows about her relationship with him, which is a professional attitude.

We were supposed to start shooting two men in their married lives by the end of March, but since the sheep problem had not been completely resolved and Kirsten's slot was long overdue, Adrian let her come from Los Angeles.

“Are you sure the foreman won't fire you?” When she heard that her husband was going fishing with his friends, Alma walked out of the house with her arms in her arms and her eyes were intricate.

“The foreman owes me, there was a blizzard at work last Christmas," Ennis didn't care, “and I just went for a day or two. ”

Once the conversation had started, Adrian had to stop.

“I need you to converge a little more," Adrian said to Kirsten after a moment of silence. “You're still a little obvious, and in any case, Alma always wanted Ennis to turn his back, or he wouldn't have ignored his date with Jack on Broken Back Mountain. So even if you saw them make out before, no matter how shocked you are, keep the calm on the surface, you can...”

He wrinkled his eyebrows slightly and looked at Ralph with a depressed look: "Are you sure that the foreman won't fire you?"

The tone was so gentle and so unspeakable that Raven gave a startled look: “Are you all right, director? ”

Kirstenton chuckled. The tension that Adrian had created when he had called a halt had dissipated, so he just glanced at Ralph and didn't say much.

“Understood?” Adrian asked Kirsten and slapped Rivan again: "Don't put too much pressure on her, let's do it again. ”

Quite frankly, Kirsten's acting was good, and although Spider-Man made her red, she had done a lot of literary movies in the years. It's just who let Ralph play with her? Where's Phoenix? Basically, Ralph had never participated in a category A production in Hollywood, and the character of the act had always been very distinctive, which kept him in good standing after the drug addiction incident.

These reputations are not just words, Adrian was deeply touched and knew Raven was a good actor. But it was always looking at things across this level, and then the first time we worked together on Broken Back Mountain, we finally saw it. Needless to say, he was always the first of all actors to get into the show, and pinched well, if not more experienced now at Adrian. It doesn't necessarily keep him under control.

In this case, Kirsten was under a lot of pressure to play with him, imaginable.

“Looks like we should be step-by-step, filming some of Alma and Ennis' life scenes before we do some in-depth shooting.” In countless repetitions, rests, repeats. After spending all afternoon, the shot finally passed, Adrian said.

“Of course, you've actually done well.” He then praised the somewhat depressed Kristen.

It's really easy to beat an actor's confidence from the start, but in turn, it allows the actor to grasp the intrinsic character as quickly as possible and to succeed with other actors. If there's a fragile mind that can't stand the blow and deny it, it's better not to be an actor. Of course, there is still a lot to be done when it comes to encouraging cheer.

“Speaking of which, I sometimes wonder, it would be interesting if Kristen and Rivan played in The Night Vampire as well. Adrian then flirted with them and said," I could almost imagine how those who like mischief would write the film. After visiting Louis, Louis fell in love with Malloy, but Malloy accepted that he had rejected him and married her after knowing Claudia who had lost his memory. Louis struggled to find Malloy, and they started seeing him again, and Louis was completely immersed in the emotional world with Malloy, but turned a blind eye to Claudia, who had recovered his memory. Claudia was doubly betrayed and eventually divorced from Malloy. ”

After this comment came, the people who heard it on the scene suddenly burst into laughter. The people who didn't heard it also laughed after others explained it. Ralph and Pete shrugged in laughter or grabbed their heads to say it was okay. Kirsten also vibrated a little in this laugh.

“Now that you're all so happy, let's try another part of the film.” Adrian then added.

“But, Mr. Director, time…” An assistant would like to remind you.

“It's okay, just take a test shot, get them ready to find out what it feels like, turn the lights on a little bit, that's fine.” Adrian then said, "Act 48, scene 33. ”

Upon hearing the two numbers he reported, everyone's eyes became a little weird, looking at the two male actors. Ralph was fine, and he was proud to start preparing, and Pete couldn't help but boil himself and grab his head. Because the plot of the scene was that Jack finally missed it and rushed over from Texas, and they couldn't help but kiss each other in the corner.

That's right, the kissing scene between the two men, and this is the first * * that Adrian was going to try. That's also why Kirsten came over and filmed the bigger part of the conflict from the beginning, with two men kissing right in front of it.

Now that the director has given the order, the crew will naturally have to operate, and soon everyone will be ready. First a long shot, Ennis saw Jack coming from the window in the house, then rushed to the door, the camera switched onto Jack's smile and then cut back, starting here, Ennis opened the door and jumped down the stairs a few steps, rushed into front of Jack, a smiley handbag held him in his arms, then the two grabbed each other and pushed him to the corner.

This lens lasted almost a minute or so and focused on Jack's perspective, encompassing Ennis' body language, all of which revealed him as completely different from his usual silence. Adrian might have taken a 360-degree spin here if he hadn't felt vicious and mismatched the style of the whole movie.

The whole process was great, with Raven leaping down, holding Pete tight in his arms, and the synthetic action and full of joy from the heart, all in place, but it became different when the next shot arrived.
