Best Actor

Vol 3 Chapter 55: Reese's screenplay

    On March 16, almost two weeks after the Oscars ended, Sean returned to Los Angeles from London after finishing the filming of "Sweeney Todd".

    Although not every scene has to be sung, and there are many lip-synching moments, but he still feels that his voice is not so comfortable, just like when he played Batman in the "War Time" crew and spoke with a low voice, The result is a slight loss of voice.

    Now I am relieved, no need to sing those... slobber songs, yes, slobber songs, Sean is not polite on this, even if the movie is adapted from a Broadway stage play, he will still not change In my own opinion, many songs are simply reciting the lines, at most they are reciting with the rhythm.

    From the director's point of view, it just expresses the emotion of the lines with music and rhythm, but from the actor's point of view, this is really a drama. Especially for stage plays like Sean, or actors who are not experienced in opera, it is easy to fall into the problem of which side to take into account.

    Okay now, filming is over, no more wrestling with this, no more tweaking yourself for the show, no more goth makeup - honestly, every time I look in the mirror Shawn felt like he was looking at Johnny Depp when he was wearing a small vest, with a strand of white in his hair combed back and forth, and heavy eyeshadow.

    Well, this is an illusion, now that the movie is over, and even if there are still problems, he still thinks he did a good job, so let's not talk about it.

    At this time, as the Oscars are gone, all kinds of debates have begun to subside. In any case, the best movie is already "Crash" - mentioning this, Sean felt a pity, If Vladimir had worked harder at that time, if he could have recalled something useful at that time, maybe Samsara Pictures would have had the first Oscar-winning film.

    However, he adjusted quickly, and he lost as much as he lost. He has already gained a lot, so it doesn't matter if he misses such a little thing. Sean is actually quite content, except for one aspect.

    The same goes for the affair with Reese Witherspoon, after a period of full PR and quite low profile - during this time in London, he hardly did any photography The shed and the hotel door—settled, too.

    In any case, it is well known in Hollywood that Reese's marriage has long been in trouble, and Sean's identity is also very different than before, so... However, the label of Lucky Sean is probably in It will be more obvious in him. When next year's Oscar, I don't know if there will be those stupid women.

    Speaking of which, Rachel believes this is okay to say, after all, Sean had an affair with her, but why does Reese believe this? She must be one of the more shrewd women, right? Or is it that the temptation of the best actress in the Oscars can make her desperate?

    Anyway, even with some smugness and vanity, Sean doesn't want anyone to believe this, it's just...some things don't depend on his will.

    "I want to be an Oscar winner too." Katie was walking slowly in the garden with her belly up when she said this. She will give birth in four months, and her belly is already very obvious.

     "No problem, I will find a way." Sean said with a headache.

    "There will be no Oscar actresses in the future." She said this immediately.

    "Okay, I'll find a way." Sean continued to cope with a bitter face.

    "You lied to me!" Katie said, staring at him.

    "No, Katie, trust me, I will find a way, I promise." Sean said quickly, anyway, think of a way to think of a way, whether it works is another time something happened.

    Katie stared at him for a moment, then reluctantly hummed and was supported by him to move on.

    Sean heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and smiled bitterly in his heart again, the reason for this was not because of Reese's scandal. Katie knew very well in her heart that as long as such a scandal spread, he and she must have slept, and there would be no other possibility.

    Thanks to Katie knowing that she is still pregnant, and has been controlling her emotions. For this reason, she still doesn't give Sean a good look.

    Sean has basically lost all his smiles these days, who made him have a criminal record, and why shouldn't he be? I don't know what to do after the baby is born.

    At this moment, the phone rang, Sean waited for Katie to stand still, then took out the phone and took two steps away automatically: "It's me... Eric is here? Okay? , let him wait a moment, I'll come right away... I said, I have private matters to deal with, so don't ask so much, in short, meet in 30 minutes. "

    "Are you leaving again?" Before he ended the call, Katie frowned and asked in a dissatisfied tone.

    "Um... I'm sorry, dear, I still have a job." Sean immediately put on an apologetic smile.

    "Do you have a lot of work every day?" Katie said immediately sullenly.

    "I told you before, Katie," Shawn smiled wryly and helped her up on a chair in the garden, "there's another movie about to start—in fact, it's already. , it's just that they shoot other people's scenes first, so I can still have a little rest practice. But in time, I only have a week to spare, so-"

    Sean spread out his hands, but Katie pursed her lips and looked away, obviously unwilling to accept his explanation.

    "Trust me, Katie, I want to spend more time with you too, but this is also very important," Sean had no choice but to continue, "You remember what I told you Eric Rees, the screenwriter? It was with his help that I managed to get the role of "Friends" and become a full-time actor. He's been having a hard time lately, so I gave him an idea to make He wrote the script, and if it's good I'll let the production company do it—I've told you about that too, right? Now that he's finally got the full script, I've got to see it."

    After saying this, Katie finally turned her head around, but her mouth was still curled.

    "Okay okay," she said finally angrily, "then you can go."

    "It's great, you're such a reasonable girl." Sean couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

    But before it was over, Katie's voice rang again: "By the way, is that the call from your assistant? She seems to be... Emma?"

    Although she made a casual appearance, her experience was too poor, and the doubt in her eyes, Sean, could be seen clearly.

    Nevertheless, he made a relaxed look: "Yes, what's the matter?"

    "She..." Katie paused for a while before continuing to ask reluctantly and cautiously, "What kind of person is she?"

    "What are you worried about?" Sean made a dumb smile, then leaned closer, "Okay, Katie, I sent you her photo, Although she is still a girl, how can her freckles be compared to my little Katie."

    As he spoke, he kissed her on the cheek. Although Katie snorted, she laughed again, with a bit of joy, she was still very coaxing.

    After a few more words, Sean called the nanny in for a few words, then left Katie's house and hurried to his villa.

    It took about thirty-five minutes for him to return to his mansion in Beverly Hills, where he was scolded by his assistant as usual.

    "Please allow me to remind you again, Mr. Tang, when you are talking about how long it takes to get to a certain place, please give as much time as you can." Give him Emma, ​​who opened the door, said this while walking in and handing over the things she had arranged in her hand.

    "Okay, okay, next time, I will give you plenty of time." Sean shook his head with a smile, and then asked again: "Are you really American, Stone Miss?"

    Emma was stunned for two seconds, then rolled her eyes: "Americans should also observe time, this is a virtue."

    "Okay, virtue." Sean shrugged and was about to go in when he walked to the door of the living room when he suddenly thought of something and stopped again, looking at Emma without blinking. for a long time.

    "Is there something on my face?" Emma asked inexplicably.

    "No, I just thought of something." Sean smiled and walked into the living room.

    Actually, the freckles on her face are not too many, she can cover it up with a little more foundation, and then she is still a very beautiful girl.

    After walking into the room, Sean calmed down, and then extended his hand to Eric Rees, who had stood up: "Sorry, Eric, for making you wait a while longer. "

    "It's okay, I just took this opportunity to think about some plot arrangements." Reese said with a wave of his hand, and then handed the script to him, looking a little urgent.

    "Okay, give me a few minutes." Sean nodded, then sat down to read his script.

    The time of the story is not long, that is, in the early 90s, counting the opening and ending, it is about 100 minutes. Sean picked out the important plots as much as possible. Although he didn't ask any questions after the brainstorming that day, he just contacted Reese from time to time to make sure what to do, but he still remembered some details very clearly, which made him very happy. Efficiently read scripts.

    "Okay, I have roughly sorted out the story line." After spending more than ten minutes reading, Sean pondered and said, "The basic overview of the story, from my point of view There is no problem with starting, but there are a few questions I want to ask."

    "Okay, you ask." Reese immediately straightened his body and pinched his fists on his knees, looking very serious.

    "I remember we initially set up that the relatively upright but slightly weaker FBI agent was dating his friend's divorced wife. Now it's changed to There is a younger brother who has a criminal record and keeps causing trouble for him, what's the purpose?" Sean recalled.

    "Because of...political correctness," Reese spread his hands, looking helpless, "If it is arranged like this, some people will say that this character can't stand the test and abandons morality in morality and emotion. If it's a white character, it's fine, but if it's a black character, someone will definitely talk about it."
