"You are now promoted to heroine!"
Charlize Theron has had a rough few days since being promoted by new director Charlotte Booth. While she instinctively focuses on filming, as soon as Charlotte yells "Cut!", a feeling of unreality emerges.
——I am really the heroine! ? Am I dreaming again?
Time time again, Charlize asked herself this way, but she still couldn't get an answer.
However, perhaps the answer is obvious—
When filming, let alone the camera that often revolves around me, the jealous eyes of Erica and Vivienne, two girls who were originally supporting actresses like me, are enough to explain the problem. Although it is different from the "welcome" way that dancers like to put thumbtacks in the newly promoted heroine's shoes when Charlize used to learn ballet, the two girls still greet the new heroine of the crew in their own way. Said "Welcome".
"Two gossip-loving little whores!"
Thinking of the rumors about herself circulating in the crew, Charlize hated the instigator of the rumors—
Obviously, just being directly promoted from an ordinary supporting actress to a heroine by the new director is enough for those jealous people to imagine, not to mention there are people who tell lies? In just a few days, Charlize had several new nicknames such as "Blonde Slut" and "Mare of the Boy"—the so-called "Boy" naturally refers to the new director Charlotte. Being able to take up the position of director next year is naturally the object of envy of many people. But in comparison, Charlotte's situation is much better than Charlize.
As a director, it is natural that Charlotte holds the real power in one hand—in the face of unconvinced actors, he can make them want to die with just an NG and reshoots—on the other hand, Charlotte keeps calm The level of the whole person is really high. When Erica and Vivienne started to incite everyone to be hostile to Charlize, they would also take Charlotte who promoted her by the way, but after the latter arranged for them to live in a cannibal house, the two gossips immediately became honest. a lot.
——The cannibal house is the home of the cannibal mutants in the movie. It is not a temporary set like the houses in many movies, but a complete wooden house. When the crew selected the location, in order to save costs, they deliberately chose this place with a cabin in the forest, which also made the cannibal house the only physical building near the location.
Like many crews on location, this crew, which was officially named "Fatal Turn" by director Charlotte after adapting the script, also used tents and RVs as their night residences. However, considering that the crew is not well funded and there are no stars among the actors, there are basically more tents and fewer RVs. In this case, the cannibal house, which was just an ordinary house, became very popular.
The hut in the forest was originally just a simple house built by the rangers of Vianers Valley. Living in itself is definitely not comfortable, but if compared with ordinary field tents, it is indeed the difference between a presidential suite and a motel. Therefore, in line with the principle of making full use of resources, the members of the crew will also use this place as their residence when they are not shooting at night.
Of course, considering the priority of women, those who live in the cannibal house at night are all women with relatively weak physical fitness. Among them, the actresses of the crew accounted for the main part.
For the first two nights, Charlize lived in it with another female makeup artist, Annika—although she was not well-known, but Charlize is now the heroine after all, and she always received some preferential treatment—and when the news about her and Xia Rumors of Lott began to circulate,
The director said in a good temper that for the sake of justice, the cannibal house with the best conditions is planned to be lived in by female members of the crew in turn, and now it's time for the two supporting actresses, Erica and Vivienne, to live in it.
When hearing this at the time, Charlize felt that Charlotte was giving in weakly. This kind of pretending to be fair did not have the effect of quelling the rumors at all, but might intensify the instigators. At that time, she was very disappointed with this man who had always made her a little curious, but after only one night, this feeling was completely reversed——
"did you sleep well last night?"
Charlize had a hard time not laughing the next morning while admiring the bloodless faces of Erica and Vivienne and gloating about their misfortune.
In fact, it is very simple to say-
As a new director, in order to avoid some accidents, Charlotte chose to shoot completely according to the sequence of the script. This method, compared to the conventional split-scene shooting, is easier for both the director and the actors to control. Although it may slow down the shooting progress, the revised script does not have many scenes, and they are all concentrated in the scene. This is a location with very cheap rent, so the impact is actually not that big. However, it was precisely this way of filming in the order of the script that killed Erica and Vivienne.
During the two days when Charlize used the cannibal house, the crew shot the opening part. At that time, all the shots were walking up and down the mountain dirt road. The cannibal house was not used as a shooting scene, so the layout inside was completely The way it was before.
And when Erica and Vivienne moved in, the filming of the film had passed the beginning and entered the part related to the cannibal house. Because of this, in this simple hut, there are more things like human skin books, bottles full of dead people's teeth, used to dismember corpses, knives that have not been cleaned, and the overall layout has become dirty and gloomy Get horrified—of course, these are all props and sets needed for filming, and they're all fake. But even if you know it's fake, the level of nerves you need to sleep peacefully in this terrifying atmosphere can no longer be described in simple words.
The two supporting actresses who didn't realize this naturally spent a very exciting night. The screams that sounded from time to time in the middle of the night were so sour to Charlize's ears, that she was so sour the next morning. I want to stimulate these two specially, and want to relive that wonderful feeling.
Erica and Vivian didn't want to sit still. After recovering from a night of panic and insomnia, the two of them asked Charlotte to allow them to pack "those scary props". However, this time Mr. Director said NO without hesitation:
"The part of the cannibal house has been photographed now. The layout inside is the result of the hard work of many staff members. For the convenience of use and saving labor costs, you can't move around until the end of the shooting! Besides, aren't they just props? What's so scary about it? !?"
Mr. Director shrugged his shoulders, as if he saw through all ghosts and snakes,
"If you're really scared, just move out honestly!"
"this……"
Although being frightened and screaming in the middle of the night is already a big embarrassment in the crew, if you move out the next day, wouldn't it be the same as admitting to failure? Although they have made a lot of achievements in gossip, the two supporting actresses are still young girls after all, and they still have a bit of momentum, and they don't want to give up easily. So, to save face and suffer, the next night, in the cannibal house, "Scream 2" continued...
"If you are afraid, move out early! The ghost screamed for two nights, not only yourselves, but everyone's rest has also been affected by it. Who will bear the loss caused to the shooting progress?"
On the morning of the third day, while watching two girls who were frightened like quails move, Mr. Director made up the knife,
"Let Charlize and the others live in the cannibal house. However, as a punishment, I may reduce your scenes appropriately!"
Being compressed by the director is an effective threat and punishment for most actors. After all, not everyone is Anthony Hopkinson. In just 21 minutes, he can almost overwhelm Jodie Foster, who was dangling in front of the camera the whole time. Most people are acting, and they still need more shots and lines if they want to be brilliant. From this perspective, it is really normal for Woody Allen's chattering style to be favored by Oscars.
With more lines, there will naturally be more opportunities to perform, and it will be much easier to perform well. And only if you perform well, you will get more fame and income-this is the same even for those vase actors. It's just that for them, it's their figure and face that stand out more than their acting skills. However, this also requires more lenses. Don't you see that in "Transformers" 1 and 2, whenever there is a chance, the camera will turn around on Megan Fox's bumpy carcass, that's the reason.
Therefore, Erica and Vivienne were naturally shocked and angry when Charlotte threatened to reduce the scene. However, in view of the fact that in the previous two nights, their frightened cries really disturbed the sleep of many people and caused public outrage, so now they have no choice but to swallow their anger.
And by taking advantage of the opportunity to deal with these two gossips, Charlotte's authority in the hearts of actors and some grassroots staff has been completely established. Charlize naturally applauded this, but she was more worried about the cannibal house. After all, she had seen the current layout inside, although there were no leftovers from the couples who came to the hut when she first checked in. There are a lot of condoms, but many of the new props, even in the eyes of Charlize, who has seen Alexis, a real ghost, are indeed scary.
"Don't worry about living here! It's not that scary."
Charlotte didn't take it seriously, but just winked at Charlize pretending to be mysterious.
As a result, Charlize had to stay in the cannibal house again with some trepidation. The facts are indeed as Charlotte said, even if surrounded by these terrifying props, whether it is Charlize or the makeup artist named Annika, they can still fall asleep normally. Even if it is not a good night's sleep, it is easier not to have nightmares of.
"Erica and the others would be scared before. Could it be that Charlotte guy used some strange spells to do something?"
That night, while half asleep and half awake, Charlize suddenly thought of this possibility. However, before she could think about it, Annika, the makeup artist who was sleeping not far from her, sat up with a "huh".
"He is calling me!"
