Best Movie Star

(Recommended ticket! Recommended ticket!)

September is coming soon. On the day of the audition, Matthew got up early, called a taxi, and arrived at Warner Studios in Burbank an hour earlier. The studio where the crew of "Band of Brothers" is located is preparing to participate in the upcoming role makeup audition.

Went to the modeling room and waited for some makeup. Matthew found that they were not the first ones to come. There were already many actors sitting on the benches in the corridor. Some, like him, were also accompanied by their agents.

"Wait a minute." Helen Herman found a bench and sat down, "You are the fifth."

The human relationship within the rules can sometimes provide a lot of convenience, and Eric Polk properly disclosed some audition information to them in advance.

Matthew sat next to Helen Herman and waited, feeling somewhat impatient. This role is not only related to future development, but also to immediate benefits.

The Los Angeles District Court has approved Wilson's lawyer's application for out-of-court settlement. He is currently in contact with the company behind the "Forbidden Tarot" crew. If a settlement agreement is reached, it is bound to require a lot of money.

The remuneration for this role can let him completely get rid of the trouble of breach of contract.

Matthew's mentality has changed compared to the past. He has an urgent desire for this role, and is even bound to win it. However, the decision of this role is in the hands of top bigwigs in the circle like Tom Hanks. Controlled by him and Helen Herman, success or failure is entirely up to them.

He is bound to be troubled by gains and losses.

Before the audition began, the modeling room began to call for the actors to enter. This was an audition with makeup on. Before each actor went to the audition room, he had to become a soldier of the 101st Airborne Division.

Matthew sat upright in the chair, and the tension and anxiety in the affectionate relationship became more and more obvious.

This is the one with the most intense competition, the longest preparation time, and the least confident one since he entered the actor circle.

"Nervous?" Helen Herman has been observing Matthew, "This is not like you."

In her impression, Matthew was bold, dark-skinned, and thick-skinned, which meant that he was young and mature.

"I'm not yet twenty years old." Matthew also wanted someone to relax, "I've never experienced such a big scene."

Only then did Helen Herman remember that he was only nineteen years old, and there were not many young people of nineteen who could have the heart of Matthew.

Matthew rubbed his face hard, feeling his muscles gradually relax, and then said, "It's much better now." He gave Helen Herman a thumbs up, "As soon as you speak, I relax."

"Huh?" Helen Herman didn't understand what he meant.

"You naturally have a reassuring temperament." Matthew deliberately used nonsense to let himself forget his tension and relax completely. "It's my most solid support."

Helen turned around and stopped paying attention to Matthew. She could see that, and Matthew gradually returned to his normal state.

After relaxing, Matthew stopped sitting here and looked around with a pair of eyes. There were more than ten actors sitting in the corridor at this time, almost all of them had tough faces and strong bodies. image.

In terms of appearance alone, none of the dozen or so people is worse than him.

Matthew is very clear that this audition is different from the previous one. In addition to the required appearance, he must come up with more things to impress the crew.

To be precise, it was to impress Tom Hanks.

The door to the styling room opened again from the inside, and a young man stepped out, shouting, "Matthew Horner! Is Matthew Horner here?"

Matthew stood up immediately, raised his hand and signaled, "This way."

"Come in!" The young man nodded.

Helen Herman also stood up and nodded to Matthew, "Go, I believe you."

Matthew glanced at Helen Herman, said nothing, and followed the young man into the modeling room.

This is a huge room. It is mainly divided into three parts. The make-up department is composed of more than ten dressing tables on the left side of the door. On the right side is the prop cabinet with various weapons and equipment of the US military in World War II, as well as the military uniforms facing the door. Hangers and changing rooms.

Matthew had known before that it not only provided services for the audition for the role of Ronald Spears, but also the other three roles with slightly less drama.

Entering the styling room, Matthew no longer thought about other things, and acted completely according to the arrangement of the crew. First, he followed the young man to the makeup department, sat in front of the makeup mirror, and let a female makeup artist do the work. Makeup was easier than imagined. , Due to the role of the audition, the makeup artist did not even put on the base makeup, but according to Matthew's facial contour and facial features, he properly trimmed the eyebrows and facial lines, making the whole person look more mature and thicker. mad.

After simply putting on makeup, Matthew came across the entrance of the styling room. Under the leadership of a male costumer, he found a fitted military uniform, received matching military boots and a steel helmet, entered a dressing room, and changed his clothes.

After leaving the locker room, standing in front of the large mirror at the door, Matthew saw that his clothes were not particularly neat, and pulled the hem of the paratrooper's uniform. Just as he was about to adjust it, the costumer came over.

He said to Matthew, "Let's go, go to the props group first. After getting other equipment, I'll help you complete the final look."

Matthew nodded, stepped on a pair of thick military training replicas of World War II, followed behind the costumer, came to the many cabinets where weapons were placed, and received one piece of "weapon equipment" from a props master.

This is an audition with makeup, which means that the costumes of each actor during the audition are infinitely close to the actual shooting state.

The amount of equipment received in the props group made Matthew sigh. After all, he is not a soldier. It is difficult to understand that an ordinary airborne soldier would carry so much equipment, and understand why the costumer said that he had finished receiving the equipment. Then finish the styling for him.

Holding the equipment he received, Matthew, led by the costumer, went back to the big vanity mirror. The costumer stood in front of him and helped him put on the weapons and equipment from top to bottom.

The costumer is skilled in business, and has successively hung helmets, scarves, armed belts, grenades, Thompson bullet bags, and pistol bullet bags on the horse's revision surface.

Then, he turned behind Matthew and put the water bottle, grocery bag, pistol and grenade bag on his back.

"Soldiers!" The costumer turned to Ma Xiu and gestured for weapons and props, "You can take the gun."

Matthew grabbed the Chicago typewriter. He had done professional training with Hawke Breton before. He held the gun in his right hand, the stock was tucked under his arm, and the muzzle was tilted down to the ground. This was the most commonly used by American soldiers during World War II. One of Thompson's tactical moves.

The costumer took a step back, looked at Matthew's shape, came over to help him straighten his helmet, pulled down the paratrooper uniform, turned to his back and squatted down, and tucked the paratrooper's trousers into his boots.

Matthew always stood in front of the vanity mirror, letting the costumer help him complete the look.

He was completely relaxed, his mind was empty, he didn't think about where he was, looked at the person in the mirror, and regarded himself as a paratrooper who was about to go to the battlefield.

Suddenly, Matthew felt that the situation behind him was not right. One of the dressmaker's hands quickly moved up along the trouser legs. Before he could react, he pinched a hand on his firm buttocks and pulled the paratrooper down at the same time. pants.

The next second, Matthew turned around and looked at the costumer. The costumer stood up as if nothing had happened, didn't even look at Matthew, and said lightly, "Okay."

It seemed that he was just helping him sort his pants.

Matthew couldn't figure it out either, the dresser was doing it on purpose, or helping him sort out his paratrooper pants, but he had experienced too many hardships and he was more cautious. A prop grenade, his eyes fell on the dresser's smooth and white forehead.

The grenade looked like the real thing, but it was actually made of plastic, but Matthew had the confidence to use this plastic grenade to make the opposite head see blood.

The costumer seemed to be aware of it, and pointed to the waiting area at the door, "Go there and wait, someone will call you to audition."

Hearing the audition, Matthew's impulsive head instantly calmed down. As long as he made a move, all mistakes were his, and the audition would definitely be over.

Most importantly, he couldn't be sure if the costumer did it on purpose.

"Hey..." Someone came over at this time, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com seemed to be the person in charge of the modeling studio, he pointed at Matthew, and said in a command-like tone, "Go over there and wait when you're done, Don't stand here and get in the way!"

Matthew nodded, his left hand was released from the grenade bag on the lower waist, and his right hand gradually loosened. He glanced at the costumer again, and walked towards the waiting place. People who are dizzy when they move, even if they want to do something, they have to endure it here and now for a while.

Even if the costumer did it on purpose, would anyone in the modeling room testify for him?

If you can't bear it, you can only get out of the crew; if you bear it for a while, maybe there will be another day that will embarrass the costumer.

When he came to the waiting area, Matthew didn't sit, but stood there like a javelin, patiently waiting for someone to notify him to audition.

Time passed by, and people who auditioned came back one after another. Some of these people were depressed, some were excited, and some were calm, but after everyone removed their makeup, they all quickly left the styling room.

Matthew waited for nearly an hour before an assistant got his name.

The man stood at the door of the styling room and shouted, "Is Matthew Horner there?"

Like last time, Matthew raised his hand, "I'm here."

The assistant beckoned to him, "Follow me to audition room No. 5."

Matthew didn't say a word, followed the assistant out of the modeling room, walked through the long corridor, turned left to a door, waited for the assistant to open the door, and walked in with him.

The moment he walked past the door, Matthew straightened his body and his legs became vigorous and strong. Those ten days of assault training made him look like a soldier.

He walked into the audition room, glanced around quickly, and saw the famous Tom Hanks.
