Chapter 160
Chapter 160
That morning, they first filmed the shot of Jack imagining knocking on Taylor's door.
The shooting location was in a house on North Neptune Avenue in Los Angeles, which was arranged according to David Fincher's old house when he first came to Hollywood. Some scenes of the Taylor House were shot here.
The first scene was relatively simple, and the three leading actors only NGed a dozen times according to David Fincher's practice. He announced that these materials were ready to use, and led the staff of the photography department to start arranging the next ones. filming station.
And the actors can take a break for a while.
Edward's eyes were swollen badly, even without makeup, Josie couldn't see it, so she deliberately blocked him downstairs.
"Come here, Ed." She stopped Edward and pointed to the sofa beside her, "Come on, let's talk."
Edward walked into the living room from the messy kitchen, and sat on the sofa at Josie's request.
"What are you talking about?" He held the script in his arms like a shield.
Josie didn't answer right away, but poured a cup of hot tea from the thermos and motioned him to drink it.
This time Edward was a little hesitant, but he still took a sip in a face-saving way, and immediately couldn't help frowning.
"Lily and longan tea is good for you." Josie said.
"I have tasted it." Edward held the cup, looked at Josie, and nodded politely, "Thank you for your concern."
After finishing speaking, he wrinkled his nose and drank it in one breath, but just as he put down the glass, Josie filled him another glass.
Now Edward couldn't stand it any longer, he pinched his eyebrows and said, "Well, you know, I don't like the smell of dates very much."
When the tea was being boiled, a few red dates were obviously thrown away.
"Yes, I know." Josie's tone was still justified, "But I know better, you only slept less than four hours last night."
Edward half-opened his mouth, with an expression of "what are you talking about, how do you know so much", and subconsciously blinked.
Josie reluctantly shoved the cup to him, and then said, "Drink. I got up early in the morning to work out, and I happened to find your TT online."
Oh, what a coincidence, it just so happens that the dialog also says "The other party is typing...".
But there is no need to be too clear about the clues.
Edward didn't ask the question "Why did you get up to exercise in the early morning", so he had to pour himself a second cup of tea, perhaps because he was speechless just now, the expression on his face looked obedient, Very docile.
After finishing drinking, he quickly put the cup back into the thermos, and tightened the lid to hold it in his hand, as if he was afraid that Josie would give him another cup.
Josie raised her eyebrows faintly, and said, "OK, the tea is over, do you want some more music - David asked me to watch you go to sleep for a while, and he also said that you have a special room downstairs for naps and bed."
"David? Oh, yes, he's right." Edward pursed his lips, and the corners of his lips drooped, "I see, I will go."
He clenched the cup in his hand and was about to stand up, but Josie actually followed suit, noticing his movement, and urged him loudly, "Let's go, let me visit your 'secret base' .”
Maybe this cup of tea helped, or maybe he was really sleepy today, or maybe Josie was sitting on his bedside, quietly flipping through the script. Did not find out.
Until there was a loud bang on the door, followed by a woman's scream and David Finch's angry curses.
Edward opened his eyes from the bed in a jerk—what happened?
Time rewinds to more than an hour ago.
For today's highlight, David Fincher used the bullet-time shooting technology of "The Matrix" to build an arc-shaped shooting stage on the spot. Sixteen cameras were lined up to take a picture one by one, and the computer These individual frames were edited together and enhanced with CG to end up with a finished look.
Josie and Gerald each took protective measures and put on part of the motion capture suit.
Several still cameras and film crews formed a circle around the bed, and director David Fincher sat on the edge of the bed to give a lecture to the two actors who were temporarily wearing coats.
The bed scene is different from most of the scenes, because the description of this in the script is often only a few sentences, but in fact, the actors need to go deep into the creation and put in a lot of effort for it.
For example, the description of this scene in their script is only this paragraph——
[Scene bedroom night]
(Pleasure and strenuous panting mixed with nervous laughter, fleeting glimpses of female limbs and soft hair, sheets drenched with sweat, cum dripping on the bed. Marla's face, fleeting. )
Some directors like to let the actors play freely, but David Fincher is just the opposite. He always thinks comprehensively, and sometimes takes away the actors' jobs, and even arranges clearly what the actors should do in this scene.
"I want you to be on top." David Fincher held a storyboard design and said to Josie: "Gerald doesn't show his face in this scene, but we will still pay attention not to wear clothes when we shoot. You understand me Do you want the feeling, Josie?"
"Six condoms?" Josie glanced at the label on the script.
"Yes, six." David Finch motioned for Gerald to take off his coat and lay flat on the bed, letting Josie sit on it and feel it. "Have you had a similar experience? The pleasure brought by this carnival made her unaware Tired of being high all night, even a finger shows satiety."
Josie took off her clothes, let the make-up artist spray water on her hair and body with a small watering can, nodded and said, "You mean to directly perform the climax and climax, and I will try my best to express the frenzied feeling of being intoxicated. "
"Okay, let's act like this, let's shoot one first." David Fincher's one will never be believable.
As soon as the filming started, Gerrard ate an NG.
David Finch touched his chin, frowned and said, "Gerald, relax, I can see the stretched veins on your body from this position."
"Sorry, give me 2 minutes."
Gerrard immediately apologized, because he really overestimated his ability to withstand the camera and sight, and he couldn't perform normally in the current environment.
David Finch was not surprised.
The shooting method of bullet time has not been widely used in the field of film production, and they are also trying it for the first time, and ordinary people may be nervous when facing a machine, not to mention that there is a whole row at the scene, which is a little bit Children with intensive phobia will fall ill.
In particular, this was Gerrard's first sex scene, and the object was a top Hollywood star like Josie Horton, so the pressure can be imagined.
"It's okay." David Finch patted Gerald on the shoulder, "Do you need a cigarette, Gerald?"
Gerald shook his head.
He originally wanted to smoke a little, but noticed that Josie didn't smoke, and immediately dismissed the idea, because he wasn't sure if they would have a kiss scene in a while.
This is a bit troublesome.
Playing with Josie Horton and Edward Norton is a completely different feeling, because the latter is not a particularly star-studded actor, but the former is definitely one of the most popular first-line stars in Hollywood. Titanic is enough to make her step into the altar.
No other movie has people walking into the theater so tirelessly countless times.
Even Gerrard himself was amazed by the movie at the time, and dreamed about the fate of the hero and heroine.
And he never thought that he, who was still working hard in London's West End last year, would act opposite the heroine of "Titanic" this year.So now when he faces Josie, he is always extra nervous and cautious, which severely limits his performance during filming.
Even if he just needs to be a faceless prop man today.
Maybe it's like those newspapers that were bad about Fight Club said: "Not long ago, this new guy just started acting in the West End, and now he is replacing Brad Pitt? Oh, what a funny joke... It seems After the miracle of "Titanic", our sweet lady has finally lost her mind."
David Finch winked at Josie.
Josie spread her hands at him, saying that she was not responsible for dealing with this kind of psychological counseling, and her own experience was not of reference for most people.
David Fincher could only shrug his shoulders, stepped forward and sat on the edge of the bed, and said to Gerald: "Well, we all know that Josie Horton is filming this scene with you, and she is from "Titanic". '' heroine—but hell, I've been in quite a few good ones too!"
Josie on the side smiled and expressed her sincere agreement: "Well said, David, I like your "Alien 3"."
"That's not my work." David Fincher said confidently.
As we all know, in the process of creating this film, David Fincher had a serious conflict of ideas with the producer Fox, and under the circumstances at the time, the mv director who was shooting a feature film for the first time obviously did not have enough The right to speak, and finally presented the most controversial work in his career.
While the critics unanimously dismissed "Alien 3" as worthless, he himself also directly announced that he did not admit that it was his own work.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Josie blinked, and then said, "Actually, I like your "The Nightmare", David."
——This is another "David", the work of David Lynch.
"..." David Fincher was silent for a while, but still couldn't hold back, "Lana, even if you are the biggest star and producer of the crew, please keep your beautiful mouth shut, thank you."
He refers to "Lana Turner", a movie goddess who is both an innocent girl and a vicious woman, a generation of Hollywood superstars that cannot be ignored in the golden age, and a line mentioned by the heroine Mara in "Fight Club" " "Dr. Jekyll" is a classic film starring Lana Turner.
Josie burst out laughing, and gave David Fincher a thumbs up for his powerful counterattack.
She put aside David Fincher, and turned to Gerald and said, "There's no need to be so nervous, Gerald, anyway, it's not like you don't know, the great director beside us is an NG maniac, let him pass in a few lines." It's just too difficult."
"I'm sure you're mocking me, boss." David Finch said angrily.
"Do I have it?" Josie said sincerely, "I only describe you as an NG maniac, and I haven't told anyone about you being a Virgo."
"Oh, then you Scorpios are really friendly and friendly." David Finch smirked, "I heard that your little notebooks for holding vengeance are longer than all the brand-new scrolls, is this true?"
Josie spread her hands, and began to talk nonsense seriously: "I don't know, I have oriental blood, and I believe in the zodiac."
"Then do you know 'Kung Fu'?" David Finch asked again.
"Look at this." Josie raised her arms as she spoke, and compared the classic action of a Popeye, "I, a Hollywood action superstar!"
This action was easy to make people feel funny or greasy, but she was wearing a thin suspender skirt, and matched with that slender and beautiful face, it was more playful and cute.
And her arm lines are really beautiful.
For the next filming of "The Trap of Stealing the Sky", Qiao Qian really worked hard for a period of time. She didn't even stop exercising this morning, and she even caught a certain insomnia patient by the way.
"Thank you." David Fincher had no expression on his face, and suddenly changed the topic, "Finally, my beautiful filter for "Titanic" is completely finished."
Josie also smirked at him, "That's great, I hope you use less film, because the current speed is very James Cameron, I have a bad feeling."
"Be confident, it's not a hunch—why do you think I'm asking for such a big budget in the first place?"
"Isn't there a special effects scene for those bloody action scenes?"
"Oh, I fooled Milkan casually."
