Chapter 105
Chapter 105
Filming of the Titanic still didn't go well.
As Martha Miller said offhand, James Cameron literally put the two actors on a boat to wait for a storm in the Gulf of Mexico to shoot a stormy scene.
Leonardo didn't want to go up, because he was almost trampled by a horse during filming a few days ago, but as a girl, Josie agreed without any fear - he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go into battle .
As a result of waiting for two days, when the real storm came, there was no way to shoot outdoors. James Cameron had no choice but to give up the plan unwillingly.
What's worse, Leonardo developed a low-grade fever just after returning to the trailer.
After Josie found out about this, she took the initiative to send her warmth.
"Here, this one can be used by pouring hot water into it, this one is worn next to the body, and this one is a drink to keep out the cold." She took out the trolley case one after another, "This coat can be worn on On the outside, this hat is also very warm.”
The shivering Leonardo looked at the weird things in front of him, especially the very thick Soviet fur hat, which was huddled under the quilt on the trailer bed.
"Thank you, Josie, I'll use it. Jeremy, do me a favor?"
Leonardo asked his assistant to fill the big red rubber bag with hot water, without much hope, but the moment the rubber bag was thrown into his bed by the assistant, he was very impressed by this weird Ugly things aroused infinite favor.
... There are billions of points of comfort!
Now he looks at Josie like looking at an angel.
"What is this? I like it so much." Leonardo shrank under the blanket, revealing a golden head, even the tip of his nose was red.
He looked like a golden retriever who needed a pat on the head from his master.
Josie resisted the urge to reach out and rub him, and just said: "You have a good rest, Jim can shoot my part first this afternoon."
Leonardo blinked, and just about to say something, he couldn't help feeling sleepy, looking hazy with tears.
He had no choice but to brace himself, his blue eyes with red eyes were especially tender, he took the initiative to hold Josie's hand, and said softly, "I really don't know how to thank you, Josie."
Kelly on the side is in a complicated mood. Speaking of which, she was also a fan of "Growing Pains" before. The waif Luke at the time pulled a lot of ratings in the second half of the episode.
but--
At this time, you can subconsciously tease girls, Leonardo is really good enough.
If this guy knew that Qiao Qian was particularly afraid that his illness would affect the progress of the filming, how would he feel about it?
But his appearance is really childish, delicate and beautiful, especially when he is sick, he completely hits the weakness of being a woman.
Kelly thought silently.
The blond young man, who was a little dizzy after taking the antipyretics, yawned again, and soon couldn't bear the effects of the medicine, and fell asleep in a daze.
Josie took old John and Kelly, and left Leonardo's trailer lightly, and went to director James Cameron's side again, and also sent a gift bag of ginger tea, hot water bottle and military coat , and actively adjusted the next shooting plan.
In the next few days, one after another, the staff of the film crew caught colds, and two members of the film crew, who used to be tall and burly, also fell down.
Fortunately, Josie's physical fitness has been exercised well, and she did not fall on the front line of filming. Instead, Leonardo was ill for a week, and was almost knocked down by the "little cold" in his mouth.
Josie simply asked El to go to the local Chinatown in Los Angeles, sweep up a truckload of supplies and transport them back to Rosaledo's studio, so that the producers of the crew could distribute them as needed.
However, this is still only a drop in the bucket for the current difficulties faced by the Titanic.
For two and a half months, little news about the film itself has been released to the public. The media has been reporting delayed release dates, poor working conditions, an overrun film budget, and even a construction worker falling off scaffolding. Even though the crew's doctors had sent him to the hospital for medical treatment, James Cameron was still considered to have "lost control of the scene".
It seems that there are still many enemies who do not want the Titanic to go on smoothly. At least the "National Enquirer" and "The Sun" have contributed to this.
The reworked Leonardo suddenly became vulnerable.
James Cameron described his leading actor as a delicate Persian cat, because he seemed so hesitant every time he entered the water, even though according to the contract signed by the crew and Josie, they used warm water.
He had to adjust the shooting plan to give Leonardo some time to change his mind.
However this doesn't seem to have the desired effect.
The heavy shooting pressure and intensity of the crew took a toll on the young actor, who was starring in a commercial blockbuster for the first time, and he finally locked himself in a trailer after one shoot, not letting anyone get close.
At the same time, James Cameron, who was in charge of the crew, was facing pressure from Fox, and once again had a dispute with Bill McEnick on the phone.
The entire crew was gloomy, as if tomorrow would be a collective career.
Josie had no choice but to knock on Leonardo's door, but the other party's roar came from inside immediately: "I said, let me stay alone for a while!"
"Leo, it's me." Josie said out loud, "I have a gift for you, can you open the door?"
The trailer was quiet for a while, and after about a minute and a half, Leonardo with red eyes opened the door.
Josie pretended not to notice Leonardo's eyes, and stuffed the box she was holding into his arms, and went in to find the TV in the trailer.
Leonardo looked out, saw no one else, relaxed a little, and closed the door.
He heard Josie waving there and calling his name: "Leo, can you use Sony's game console? Anyway, there's nothing to do now, why don't you play with me for a while!"
Her tone didn't seem to be affected by the atmosphere of the crew, and she even smiled habitually at Leonardo, which was brilliant.
Leonardo found a pair of scissors to unpack the game console, and subconsciously complained: "Isn't it a birthday present for me? It's fine if you don't decorate it with beautiful wrapping paper and ribbons. Why do you want me to accompany you?" Play?"
Josie was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "Because today is also my birthday!"
"What?" Leonardo stopped unpacking things immediately, and turned his head to look at Josie's expression in disbelief, as if to make sure she was joking, "Today is November NO.11 , right?"
Josie pulled two chairs and put them in front of the TV, she sat on one of them, gave Leonardo a straight look, and said, "No, no, we have been working together for almost three months, and you are completely Don't know my birthday? Oh, for God's sake, this is heartbreaking for your friend, Mr. DiCaprio!"
Leonardo had no choice but to make a gesture of surrender, saying: "My fault, I will make up for the gift, so forgive me."
Josie seemed unmoved.
He blinked quickly again, and said softly, "Please."
Josie snorted coldly on purpose, crossed her arms and raised her feet, and urged him to say, "I know I'm wrong, why don't you install the game console quickly? The gift is fine, just play games with me when you have nothing to do these few days."
"No problem, let's see mine!" Leonardo was full of confidence.
So the two leading actors of the crew played Tekken 2 on Leonardo’s trailer for the entire lunch break, and there were frequent sounds of madness, and the big star would be incompetent and furious when he was knocked out by a weird combo in the game , after all, this game is equally unfriendly to the two new players.
After being interrupted by Josie, Leonardo's depressed mood has long since disappeared without a trace. He seems to like his birthday present-or maybe, he likes to give a crazy Josie a meal Hahaha? ——But Josie really sucks at playing games.
During the shooting in the afternoon, the state of the two leading actors returned to normal, which obviously also had a positive impact on the rest of the crew.
Although this scene has been filmed for two days, James Cameron was a little more patient today and explained the main points of the dinner scene to Josie in detail: "The key to this whole scene is the eyes, You and Jack are communicating in a way that no one else will notice."
Josie sat at a round table covered with a white linen tablecloth. The makeup artists were still adjusting the makeup and hair of the actresses. Leonardo combed his hair back and stood on the other side of her listening to James Cameron. .
James Cameron simply squatted down, put his arms on the back of Josie's chair, and met her eyes.
"Come on, treat me like Jack, give me some eyes." He gestured, "No, no, another way... ok, that's it, give me a little more emotion, good! Keep it that way , let's take a picture right away!"
This is a very complicated plot.
There are thirteen actors at the dining table alone, and everyone has dialogue or conversations with others. At the same time, a lot of close-up shots, pull-back shots, etc. are used.
Another morning of repetitive mechanical work.
Fortunately, the tacit understanding between the male and female protagonists suddenly became better, so it was not as difficult as the film crew originally imagined. The task was completed a day and a half ahead of schedule, and the filming progress was slightly caught up.
After the last one was passed, James Cameron announced that everyone could finally leave this dreary room and go to the third-class cabin downstairs to continue shooting at the dance scene, and everyone cheered up.
"Oh, I have to say, I now find it so relaxing and enjoyable to eat at home." As Josie said, she let the makeup artist take off the huge zircon necklace around her neck, and then Kelly stepped forward to give it to her. She put on a big cashmere shawl.
The heating was turned on in the studio, and it wasn't too cold, but Josie always paid attention to her body all the time.
Leonardo undid the top button of his shirt and said, "This is the first time I've found that caviar is so boring."
Oscar winner Kathy Bates, who played Molly Brown, also said: "Thank God, I can finally go home and eat a good meal-maybe it shouldn't have caviar."
The crowd laughed.
Even James Cameron put his waist in and said, "Okay, I'll send some caviar to the ladies and gentlemen at the dinner party later, it's definitely not something that makes you dislike it."
The atmosphere was visibly more relaxed.
Most people were busy transitioning, Leonardo supported Josie with one arm, and also helped Kelly show Josie her long beaded skirt so she wouldn't accidentally step on it.
He winked at her, "I'll let you appreciate my dancing skills later."
"So you've been secretly practicing this tap dance?" Josie put on a cotton coat and snow boots under her skirt. "No wonder you keep telling me that I don't need to rehearse this scene."
Leonardo smiled smugly, and emphasized: "Presence, this is the presence you have always wanted, dear Ms. Horton."
Josie smirked at him without comment.
When the shooting ended in the afternoon, Kathy Bates, who said she was going home in the morning, took the lead in hosting a special birthday party for their hero and heroine, in the studio where the dance scene was originally filmed.
The producer of the film crew, Jon Landau, and his youngest son, pushed a huge cake with a cart, and everyone at the scene, including James Cameron, sang the customary happy birthday song.
"Make a wish, Josie." Leonardo urged her beside Josie, "I'll show you a demonstration!"
He said and made a prayer gesture, closed his eyes and muttered: "My wish is that the Titanic goes smoothly and sells well! By the way, let me and the lady beside me become popular all over the world together! "
"Okay——" Josie also laughed along with him, folded her hands in front of her chest, and said slowly: "Then my wish is that your wish will come true."
She didn't look at Leonardo, but faced the candle in front of her. The candlelight reflected on her tightly closed eyelashes, adding a bit of warm tenderness, and the smooth side face seemed to grow according to the measurement Yes, unbelievably beautiful.
Leonardo couldn't help but secretly opened his eyes to look at Josie's beautiful face beside him. After she opened her eyes again, they counted down together: "Three, two, one!"
The only candle was blown out by two people, and the Polaroid camera of crew photographer Russell Carpenter perfectly captured the moment.
The author has something to say: Well, the two bachelors celebrated their birthday~
