Best Actor

    "Srian, I want you to panic a little more, because your character here is completely unpredictable, this humble house has enemies besides a soft woman, and your character also Not a strong character, so panic should be more obvious. But at the same time your character is military trained and a soldier who has been on the battlefield, so you can't move too much to prevent..." Mingla looked at a clear-eyed look in the open space outside the house said the young man.

    Speaking of which, the soldier Minghella chose to play the Union soldier who was killed by Sarah was called Searian Murphy, and he was also a little famous actor. The alternative zombie movie "28 Days Changed" starred him.

    Sean is very sad, not because Minghella spends money to make up for such a scene, although he thinks the name of Sean Murphy is familiar, but it is only familiar. Sean is distressed that if he had thought of this film earlier, he would have convinced Vladimir to invest. It is said that the cost of this horror thriller, which sold well in the UK, was only 8 million. , the box office will certainly not be low.

    It seems that after the new round of financing is completed, it is necessary to go to the UK to find some low-investment scripts to try. Sean remembers that there seem to be some good zombie movies in the UK.

      It works pretty well with Natalie, so the progress is pretty fast. Of course, the relationship between him and Natalie is still the same. Based on the simple words before, it can be inferred that Natalie has heard of Sean's **** name, and she has always kept herself clean in Hollywood. The label of , is a Jew born in Israel again, the prospects are immeasurable, and naturally I don't want to have anything to do with Sean.

    This is really depressing news, but the most depressing thing for Sean right now is that he has never been able to tell Minghella what he thinks when the reshoot is about to be completed.

    The next three or four test shots were taken. After Murphy and Sean were in their respective states, Minghella announced the official start. After that, there were six NGs, and each time they called stop without warning. Although the performance of the two of them was not particularly good, it would be a pity, but the call to stop did not explain the reason, and it was still several times. , it's a bit strange, Minghella is not the wheeler who likes to shoot 99 times, and his brows have been frowning, seeming to be troubled by why.

    Finally, when it was NG again, he called the assistant director, assistant assistant, as well as Sean, Murphy, and Natalie.

    "I always feel that there is something missing here, what do you think?" He asked, and looked at Sean and the others, "You also talk about it, even if it's just your feelings."

    "Perhaps to make the character more emotional?"

    "Sarah can, but Inman can't."

    "Yes, Inman can't, but the soldier can."

    But Sean never said anything, he has been hesitating whether he should take this opportunity to speak out.

    After listening to these opinions, Mingera turned around twice, and then seemed to think of something, and then waved his hand to indicate that he was ready to continue.

    Seeing that the opportunity was about to slip away, Sean, who was still considering the words, finally said: "Tony, have you thought about filming this scene intact? "

    "Intact? Why?" Mingla was surprised.

    "Because it is very sharp, the character's ups and downs are also great, and it is easier to hit the weakest part of the audience's heart," Sean said quickly, "It makes them more deeply understand that the hero wants to go back obsession.”

    Mingela frowned immediately: "It is too heavy to shock the audience's heart with the death of a baby. Too much heavyness will only make the audience uncomfortable, not just sad."

    "Then it's a little heavier," Sean said immediately, he had thought about it countless times, "When the spring is too tight, it will naturally bounce back violently, and if it is too heavy, it will highlight the final Ada's strength and the little happiness of that peaceful life."

    "What do you want to say." Minghella's face changed.

    Sean took a deep breath: "Let Sarah commit suicide."

    "She lost her husband before, now she lost her child, and she has lost hope of living. Although it is not explicitly written in the novel, it is vaguely mentioned." Sean didn't care. So much, I went on and on, and in the end, the tone was even more accentuated, "Also, most of the characters have a clear ending, but I read the script, what happened to Sarah after this episode, is to continue to live here, Whether it is to go to another country or go to another country, it is not clearly shown, so why is it just filming this scene?"

    "That's a real problem," Minghella admitted with a sigh, "so it should have been easier to adjust if we were shooting together."

    Follow the conversation: "However, although your suggestion is good, it is always just a guess, right?"

    "Yes, I admit it," Sean nodded, his tone still sincere, "Tony, I admit, I have no experience in mastering movies, but I have seen many movies, and I know The movie needs to explode, and it needs to let the audience’s accumulated emotions explode, and in my opinion, this is a good explosion.”

    Minger stretched his hand and tapped on his head, his brows relaxed for a moment, but then he frowned again: "You have given me a problem, Sean."

    It seems that he can't make a decision for a while, Sean glanced around and had to step forward: "Tony, I want to tell you something privately."

    Glancing at Sean strangely, Minghella made a gesture and walked to the other side with him: "If you have anything, just say it."

    "Although that's not what I should say, Tony, your movie lacks a climax." Sean sighed, and finally said it straight.

    The director's brows furrowed even tighter, but after all, he is not a person without a heart. After hesitating for a while, he had to admit this: "I am indeed lacking in this regard."

    "So this is a climax," Sean spread his hands, "I'm not you Tony, I don't have that much expertise, I just think so, but I trust my gut ."

    "That's right, it is said that your intuition is always accurate." Minghella was silent for a moment and suddenly laughed, then reached out and patted his shoulder, "Thank you, Sean, I see. "

    Obviously, he has understood Sean's intentions, and since this is the case, Sean is not saying anything.

    "Stan, tell Ledley that I need to make two versions of this scene, and let him come up with an outline right away, an outline of Sarah's suicide because of the death of her child." Minghella returned to the set Then he said to the assistant, "I will discuss it with him in detail at night."

    Well, this is a solution, make two versions, and then put the whole in post-production for comparison. As for which one will be used in the end, it is beyond Sean's control. He is not the producer of this movie, and he has already done everything he can.

    The script was revised very quickly, and the other version was handed over by the field manager the next day. Mingera is also one of the screenwriters, so it must be very convenient to communicate, and he probably also has a good understanding of the original novel. The plot is also somewhat reluctant. But in this way, the burden on Natalie's shoulders has become much heavier. For her a year younger than Sean, it is not easy to show the heart-wrenching pain of a single mother losing her child. .

    "Cut!" Minghella stopped, then shook his head, "rest for a few minutes before we continue."

    This is the twelfth NG of Natalie's painful scene of crawling on the ground after finding out that the child died, but as far as the current situation is concerned, it is possible to NG another 12 times Yes, but Minghella has already said it, and the rest is to shoot repeatedly, hoping that the actors can continue to adjust in NG, and finally achieve the effect everyone wants.

    The effect is definitely there. Wheeler did it 99 times before. William Wheeler is one of the most famous directors in Hollywood. He has been nominated for 12 times. He likes to do it the most. That is, have the actors perform it repeatedly behind the camera, and then find the desired shot from it. But this will also put a lot of pressure on the actors. If there is no breakthrough for a long time, it is likely to overwhelm the actors.

    Now, Natalie is sitting on a chair and drinking water, covering her forehead. Although she looks calm on the surface, it still reveals a feeling of irritability.

    Sean thought for a while, then walked over: "Are you okay, Natalie?"

    "It's okay." Glancing at him, the other party was still so cold.

    "Maybe you can do it another way," Sean didn't care, although the filming has only been around for a week, he's used to it, "If you can't meet the requirements with a restrained performance, , might as well replace it with an external performance, the one that suits you is the best."

    Hearing this sentence, Natalie showed obvious hesitation, but Sean did not say any more, but chose to leave. The relationship between the two can only be said to be normal. If you talk too much, it will have the opposite effect. It is better to let her think for herself. I believe that as a talented woman at Harvard, she can understand his meaning.

    Introverted performances may be better, especially this very tragic plot, which is more likely to resonate with the audience. But the requirements for actors, regardless of their understanding or feelings, need to be at a certain level, and Natalie is still only 21 years old. Although it is said that she played an unmarried mother before, it is different from her current role, so she is restrained. The way of acting was very difficult for her.

    The loud screaming, crying and waving arms of the extroverted style are relatively inferior, but if they are handled well, they may not necessarily lose to the restrained style. It's just that Natalie is obviously a strong girl, she doesn't know these performances? How is it possible, but it can be seen from her unwillingness to change more than ten times.

    So Sean reminded her, even if the effect of restraint is better, but you can't show it, what's the use?
