​​

As for Zack Snyder and "The Three Hundred Spartans", Matthew will put it aside for now, and Helen Herman will watch it for the time being. He still has "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" to finish.

​​

After returning to the crew, Matthew and Charlize Theron first went to the nearby wilderness of Nevada to shoot some exterior scenes. This part of the scene was very small and was completed in less than five days. The crew then went to Atlanta to shoot some exterior scenes in the city. It was near the end of August before returning to Warner Studios in Burbank. The most important and crucial part of the entire script, the family battle of the Smiths began. .

​​

The studio has been set up into a luxurious home environment. The oak dining table is filled with all kinds of delicacies. In the center of the dining table, there is a table full of candles. The supporting restaurant is warm and romantic. .

​​

But the two people in the restaurant were **** for tat.

​​

After nearly a month of running-in, Matthew and Charlize Theron are not only getting better and better, but their cooperation has also become more and more tacit.

​​

At the beginning of the filming, Matthew stood at the dining table with a bottle of red wine and looked at Charlize Theron sitting behind the dining table. He picked up the wine glass in front of Charlize Theron, poured her a glass of wine, and handed it to her. In the past, Charlize Theron took the wine glass but didn't drink it. He glanced at the wine glass vigilantly and put it on the dining table.

​​

Matthew narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes were instantly sharp, his fingers suddenly loosened, and the wine bottle fell to the ground.

​​

Charlize Theron seemed to react subconsciously, reaching out to grab the wine bottle. Her arms were long enough, her palms were big enough, and she had practiced with Matthew many times before, so she easily grabbed the wine bottle.

​​

Matthew looked at Charlize Theron with interest, and Charlize Theron was also looking at him.

​​

At this moment, director Doug Liman seemed to see sparks jumping between the two. One of them was wild and the other was cold and sexy. They were the perfect couple.

​​

Charlize Theron suddenly let go, the bottle fell on the ground, and the wine gurgled out.

​​

"I'll clean it up!"

​​

"I'll go get a towel!"

​​

Matthew and Charlize Theron passed by, each running towards their goal.

​​

The two cameramen carrying the Steadicam followed Matthew and Charlize Theron respectively. Matthew took off his suit jacket, hung it in the corridor, turned and entered the study, opened a drawer, and took it out from the back of the drawer. A dark pistol with a silencer.

​​

Holding the gun in both hands, he turned out of the study, looked around vigilantly, and said at the same time, "Jane, where are you?"

​​

"Great!" Director Doug Liman's voice sounded, "This one is over! Take a fifteen-minute break."

​​

Matthew handed the pistol over to the temporary assistant who came over, and while walking towards the dining table in the room, he unbuttoned his shirt, took it off, and handed it over to the costumer who came up. There was only a vest left on his upper body. He came to the dining table, Pulling out the chair to sit down, the dressmaker has returned with another shirt.

​​

Matthew stretched out his arms and asked the costumer to put them on for himself.

​​

Charlize Theron also changed his clothes at this time, entered the restaurant from the other side, pulled out the dining chair, and sat opposite Matthew.

​​

After changing clothes, Matthew also sat down.

​​

"Are you ready to be beaten by me?" Matthew asked deliberately.

​​

"It was you who was beaten by me." Charlize Theron smiled. "Most of the scenes where you beat me are stunt doubles."

​​

The two just said a word, director Doug Liman came over, pulled out another dining chair and sat down, looked at Matthew first, then looked at Charlize Theron, and said, "The next few people. In the scene, except for the shooting scene at the beginning, the other hand-to-hand fights must use kitchen utensils and other household items as much as possible.”

​​

Matthew and Charlize Theron both nodded.

​​

Doug Liman emphasized, "You have to always remember that this is a family war and a husband and wife war."

​​

He didn't say more, this is a simple and relaxed commercial entertainment film, whether it is him as the director or the two leading actors, Matthew and Charlize, there is no need to interpret the script and the inner world of the characters too much.

​​

If this is done, a purely commercial entertainment film is not far from the end.

​​

Not only Doug Liman, but Matthew also thinks so. Since "The Mummy Returns" starred in The Scorpion King, he has never deeply explored the inner world of the character. This aspect is that the setting of the character is simplified. On the other hand, it is impossible for the filmed film to slow down to express these.

​​

During the preparation period, he communicated with Doug Liman. Doug Liman specifically talked about the "Matrix" trilogy, thinking that the Wachowski brothers are very good negative teaching materials, "The Matrix" "The first part focuses on entertainment effects, and some more profound elements are appropriately added to the entertainment, but the film is not for the purpose of exploring the depth, but to let the depth serve the entertainment, so it has achieved great success, especially in terms of word of mouth, The later videotapes and DVDs sold like crazy.

​​

When it came to the next two sequels, the Wachowski brothers did the opposite, and as a result, the word of mouth fell. "Reloaded" is better. After all, it has the foundation of the first one, and the box office is also dazzling. "The Matrix Revolution", the box office and word of mouth have dropped significantly.

​​

Doug-Lieman also said at the time that if the Wachowski brothers could not reverse the production concept, they would play these mysterious and mysterious things in commercial masterpieces like the last two "The Matrix", and they would definitely get worse.

​​

In today's commercial entertainment films, fast pace and simple and clear plots are indispensable conditions for success.

​​

After the explanation, Doug Liman left the restaurant, and the action director came in again, coordinating the action shots with Matthew and Charlize Theron.

​​

What follows next will be a real family battle.

​​

During the fifteen-minute break, Matthew and Charlize Theron were not idle, and then filming began again, and the two took turns to go into battle, facing the scenes from the bedroom to the kitchen, from the kitchen to the corridor, and from the corridor to the living room. Open fire, with the precise assistance of the pyrotechnician, the scene carefully arranged by the crew is smashed.

​​

After the shootout, the two fought a lot. There are no long shots here. Basically, there are short shots every two or three seconds. And unlike Matthew, in some scenes where Mr. Smith beats Mrs. Smith, Charlize Theron also uses stunts. substitute.

​​

At the same time, the photo frames, wall clocks, kitchen utensils and vases carefully prepared by the props team have all become their combat weapons.

​​

Like a real husband and wife at war, Matthew and Charlize Theron smashed this well-decorated home into a mess.

​​

Doug Liman had said to Matthew before that the Smiths' dramatic character relationship cannot be supported by the actors' performances alone. The things around them should also have some kind of hint, and their house in the suburbs has become a Ready-made "props".

​​

This is not just a space for food, clothing, housing and transportation, but a marriage relationship that is dangerous and involved in ruin, and their lives are full of secrets, lies and burnout.

​​

The house of the two is very luxurious in design, complex in style and has a great space concept, but it lacks warmth and soul. It is more like a show field than a home. But there are still spaces that John-Smith and Jane-Smith have not touched, those hidden and hard-to-find "hidden spaces" that symbolize the true identities of the people who live here.

​​

For example, John Smith's seemingly ordinary tool shed has a hidden space the size of a cellar, which is filled with piles of cash, bazooka, grenades and various pistols; and Jane Smith's high-end oven, which is necessary for housewives, is actually It's also a secret storage room for high-tech weapons...

​​

Until John Smith and Jane Smith show off their true identities, the house that symbolizes a discordant relationship is razed to the ground.

​​

In the words of director Doug Liman and screenwriter Simon Kinberg, the scene appears to be a death game between two well-trained ace killers, who in fact have to face many married couples in the end. The problem that couples need to face: Love has become bored and deceitful over time, living together under the same roof, but there is no soul communication.

​​

John-Smith and Jane-Smith both have superb skills that ordinary people can't reach, but what they fight for is not **** each other, but how to live with another person for a lifetime.

​​

After three days of shooting this action scene, it came to the final stage.

​​

Inside the ruins of the living room in front of the camera lens~www.readwn.com~ Matthew and Charlize Theron faced each other with guns, and the muzzles of each were aimed at each other's vital points.

​​

At the beginning, the two of them had sharp eyes and fierce faces, like a quarrelsome couple, eager to shoot each other's heads immediately.

​​

Matthew looked at Charlize Theron, her face was covered in blood and the muscles on her face kept moving.

​​

After this cooperation, he found out that the acting skills of this Oscar-winning actress are roughly on the same level as him, and he also fully understands that in this day and age, those who can win the Oscar for acting may not necessarily rely on acting skills.

​​

After a few seconds of confrontation, Matthew's expression softened, he sighed softly, put down the gun first, and said, "I can't do it."

​​

Charlize Theron suddenly clenched her phone tightly, closed her eyes, and seemed to want to shoot, she raised her voice and shouted, "Come on! Go on! e.on!"

​​

"If you want..." Matthew threw the gun directly, "Shoot it."

​​

Charlize Theron put his finger on the trigger and couldn't let go several times, and finally spit out a sentence, "I...I can't do it!"

​​

Matthew stepped forward, pulled Charlize Theron's pistol away, grabbed her slender and strong arm, and pressed her against the flat wall behind him.

​​

However, the filming of this scene has stopped at this point, because the scale of the next scene is relatively large, and there is a clause in Charlize Theron's contract, requiring the crew to clear the scene for filming. ) Download Free Reader!!
