Best Actor

Vol 2 Chapter 226: surprise

    "Cigarettes?" The girl with a bob head and an ancient Egyptian dress with a cigarette case hanging on her chest looked at the young man sitting at the table with hopeful eyes.

    "Oh, no, thank you, I don't smoke." The other party shook his head, then looked at her with interest, and then looked at his companion with a surprised expression Tone said: "As long as you have a tone, you won't let it go, buddy?"

    The words are frivolous, but with a sense of appreciation and surprise, as if surprised by the beauty radiated by the girl, so it does not sound offensive.

    He quickly continued: "God, can you do me a favor? Could you laugh for me? Just a little?"

    The man's tone was eager and sincere, as if he really wanted to see the girl's smile, and his eyes were full of interest and admiration, and he raised his hand, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, as if Making a silent tut.

    So even though the words were still frivolous, the girl who bought the cigarettes still hesitated for a while, then raised the corners of her mouth, revealing her neatly sworn teeth.

    "Right, you see, your upper lip is shorter, which makes your smile more charming." The man put his hands on his chest and said with an intoxicated expression.

    "This smile is so beautiful, can you smile for me a few more times?" The man reached out his hand and seemed to want to touch her face, but he immediately took it back when he noticed something. Then he looked at the girl with a reluctant expression.

     

    "Director?" An assistant called Scorsese who was sitting in a special chair outside the studio.

    You know, the content here should have been Hughes reaching out and touching the girl's calf for teasing, and the line should also be: Look, I really want to know, what can make a beautiful woman like you happy . I mean, it's like you're standing here, right? I touch you with my hands, like this, with my fingertips - do you like it?

    But now Sean has changed not only his actions, but also his lines, which is undoubtedly inappropriate in the eyes of the assistant. It's not that there are no actors who revise their lines during performances, and some directors are not so strict with their lines and are willing to let the actors play by themselves, but these are excellent big-name directors and actors.

    Only excellent actors know how to make the revised lines closer to the content of the shooting, and only excellent directors can control the scene so that the actors will not lose control when they play on their own. Although Sean has been praised by many people for his acting skills and has been nominated for the Best Actor Oscar, he has only been in the industry for more than three years. As people around Scorsese, these assistants have seen too many good acting skills. I think he has the ability to handle it.

    However, to their surprise, Scorsese didn't say anything, just made a gesture to continue shooting, and then stared at several people on the set more intently. The assistants couldn't help looking at each other, and invariably looked at the young man again, is he really acting so well? Can Scorsese let him play freely? !

    "Come on, don't be shy, smile again, show me your beauty, more beauty." Sean on the set continued to speak in a soft voice, he smiled, There is an indescribable charm that gives the feeling that these words are genuine.

     

     Scorsese couldn't help but smiled, then nodded, no doubt, Sean's self-play got his approval. But immediately he frowned again, because the actress who played the cigarette girl's performance was a little bad at the moment, probably because Sean didn't expect Sean to change his lines, so he was at a loss for a while, not knowing how to deal with it. .

    What a shame. Scorsese murmured inwardly, if the opposite actor is a more experienced actor, she should be at a loss, with a little excitement, wanting to accept the other party's compliments, but worried about being coaxed by the other party. a feeling of.

    Well, this is just a small actor, can't be too demanding. Scorsese could only comfort himself by thinking like this. Anyway, the dazed expression made sense, and... this kind of dazedness from the inside out is also very convincing at times.

    "Look, I just want to make you happy, I want to know everything about you, can you let me do this? Can you give me this chance?" Sean continued at this time, smiling more and more The gentleness, but also with a little bit of aggression, really brought this **** to life.

    "I'll get off work in half an hour." Because the lines returned to the content stipulated in the script, the actress finally knew where she had reached, and immediately smiled and said in a normal manner.

    This paragraph is over here, and Scorsese takes the lead in applauding: "Nice job, Sean."

    Since the director said so, everyone applauded, Sean made a sigh of relief, and then raised his hand with a smile: "I'm so worried, Martin, If you feel bad, then I'll fall into the abyss."

    "Me too, but seeing you speak your lines so smoothly, I suddenly think this may be very good, and I believe Martin will see it the same way." Beside him, who plays Adam Scott, of Hughes press secretary Johnny Meyer, chimed in, giving the two a small hug.

    "How come," Scorsese chuckled, "If it didn't work, I would have called it off."

    "So, how would you rate my performance just now, Martin?" Sean asked immediately, looking hopeful.

    "Well..." Scorsese pinched his chin and thought, "A- for Hughes, A+ for Playboy!"

    There was laughter all around, and Sean rolled his eyes and raised his hands helplessly with a wry smile. Who said Scorsese, who was known for his sternness on the set, couldn't make a joke?

    Of course, it's also because he's in a really good mood, because Sean didn't let him down. When I was in Long Beach before, I still couldn't get into the drama, and the factory drama was just normal, but I didn't expect to give him a surprise after starting the drama in the hotel.

    What should a **** look like? Of course, he is good at coaxing women. He must be able to say nice things and be good at observing words and expressions. Even the famous Howard Hughes cannot escape this rule.

    If he is really a moody freak, no matter how rich he is, no matter how easy his character is to arouse a woman's motherhood, it is impossible for him to be favored by so many women.

    The reason why Scorsese liked DiCaprio in the first place was that in addition to having worked with each other, he was more familiar with each other. DiCaprio's good at coaxing women is probably one of the reasons. It's a pity, it's not as good as Sean. Look at the people who have an affair with him. Which age is not older than him? These women with some experience are still coaxed by him, and Nicole Kidman has been dating him for a few months, not to mention other women.

    Yes, Scorsese asked someone to investigate Sean. Since it is the first time to cooperate, it must be understood clearly, and these gossips cannot be hidden in Hollywood. Of course, it is up to the person who collects the information to distinguish whether it is true or false.

    "Patrick, tell everyone, we need to change the shooting schedule, stop the shots of the aircraft factory, and now focus on the hotel part." Scorsese called his new assistant director so. commanded.

    Originally, the original plan was to complete several shots over there after the launch in Long Beach, and alternately shoot the aircraft factory and the hotel party in the studio.

    This is because the two scenes are very long and include content from different periods. For example, in the aircraft factory, there are scenes where Hughes inspects new aircraft twice, and there are scenes where large passenger planes are manufactured. On the hotel party side, there are scenes where MGM borrows a camera, a scene with Juan Tripp, and a dinner with Hepburn.

    Basically, each scene takes at least two to three weeks, and the same type of scene takes a long time to shoot, and the actors and crew are prone to fatigue, so Scorsese simply Exchange shots.

      convenient.

    However, now that Sean gave Scorsese a surprise, the old man naturally thought about using it. To put it simply, it is to let him continue to immerse himself in this atmosphere. Although there are many scenes of hotel parties, most of them are talking about love, or they are demonstrating against Tripp of Pan Am, which belongs to the youth The story of Sheng Hughes.

    Since Sean has figured out this aspect well, let him continue to figure it out in this atmosphere and further integrate himself into Howard Hughes. Scorsese is still very confident. He has chatted with Sean a few times before starting the machine. The other party has done a lot of homework and he can see it in his eyes. Coupled with the video tape that made him feel amazing before, he thinks it is completely okay. Shoot better.

    In this regard, Sean's feeling is that it doesn't matter, he thinks that he is fully prepared, even if the state is not very good after the boot due to Kate and various reasons, but with the deepening of shooting , he will definitely be able to fully demonstrate his strength. But it's not bad to be able to show it a little earlier, although it starts from that character, but as long as it can create a Howard Hughes who has been recognized by countless people, it is nothing.

    So, the crew quickly adjusted and filmed along the timeline, and as Scorsese expected, Sean played well, relatively speaking, the young and energetic Hugh It is indeed easier to play some. Then, he met an old friend, not Kate, but Jude Law, who played Errol Flynn in "The Aviator", the infamous **** man of the 1930s and 1940s star.
