Exploiting Hollywood 1980

Chapter 224 The height of the boot photo

"No no no, this is not the Charlie I want, you dress her up as one, one..." Ronald looked at the three hired hair stylists, costumers, and makeup artists, and spent two hours Kelly McGillis dressed up as the image, repeatedly denied.

"A what? It's the latest fashion trend, isn't it?"

The hair stylist came from New York. He once did the hair of Molly Ringwald, the heroine of "Sixteen Candles". A short red hairstyle would make more than two thousand dollars.

"Like a street girl," Ronald couldn't help it. "What I want is an intellectual woman who can give lectures to fighter pilots with various doctorates and master's degrees."

"Okay, let's change another set." The costumer pulled over the clothing rack and began to choose intellectual style clothes.

"Also, how many inches are these high heels? Too high, lower."

"Intellectual women can also be beautiful," McGillis protested in red high heels and turned twice.

"Okay, try again."

The two leading actors, Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer, walked in and put on the uniforms of naval aviators. The photographer sent by Paramount to shoot the stills for the crew gave the three leading actors dozens of presses. shutter.

Soon a piece of news about the start of the "Top Gun" crew was put on the seventh edition of The Hollywood Reporter. With a photo of the three main actors.

On Monday, the crew pulled to Miramar Naval Base, where they will film the main scenes on the ground.

In the first scene, Ronald arranged the classroom scene and the Lone Ranger arrived at Top

On the first day of Gun flight school, I listened to a lecture by an instructor called "Clown" with Iceman and other students of the same period.

Playing the Joker is Michael Ironside, who was born with the face of a bad guy. It was bad when I was an instructor.

"In our navy, the exchange ratio in North Korea was twelve to one. We shot down twelve opponents, and we were shot down by one. In Vietnam, it became three to one. Many pilots are so reliant on missiles that they forget about dogfighting. Skill.

in Top

Gun school, you are here to learn advanced aerial combat skills, also known as dog fighting. You are the top one percent in the Navy, the one with the highest score here will get the Top

Gun's Trophy. "

"Cut!" Ronald smiled. For the first shot, he deliberately chose a simple one, just shoot the camera on the clown. Among the students below, including Tom Cruise's Lone Ranger, and his partner Dumb Goose. Over there is Fong Kimer's Iceman, and the other two main supporting characters, Barry Tabb, who plays Werewolf, and Rick Rossovich, who plays Slider.

This kind of shot allows everyone to quickly warm up and enter the state without being too difficult and affecting the confidence of the actors.

The crew began to prepare for the next scene. The clown introduced the school's director "Viper", and the students' reactions when they heard the clown's words.

The curtains were drawn, and the setting sun slanted into the blinds. All groups are arranged quickly.

Ronald took advantage of the break to observe the state of several actors. Tom Cruise wearing headphones, still reciting lines. Val Kilmer looked at Tom with disdain, and the two officially met on the set.

"...the top one percent of the elite, the one with the highest score here, will get the top

Gun's Trophy. "

The top of the clown's head was already half bald, and he said his lines again with his back to the camera, this time capturing the reaction of the trainee.

"This sentence made me hard." Barry Tabu, who plays the werewolf, is a handsome boy with a baby face. He speaks obscene words to the camera, and he also has a childish and innocent childishness, which is very appealing to women.

"Don't Flirt With Me", next to Rick Rossovich, who plays the slider, is at the other extreme. He looks very stiff with Eastern European descent, but his muscles are also a favorite of some female audiences.

"Cut!"

Ronald's shot is approaching methodically. This kind of high concept film does not require much acting skills, and these actors are not newbies, so shooting at this level is a piece of cake. He just deliberately chose to shoot in the evening, and the magic light came into the room and it looked very beautiful.

The first day of shooting ended quickly. Tom Cruise came over to say hello, he didn't live with the rest of the crew, Paula came to pick him up, handed over the tapes of the next day's lines, and the two drove to a better hotel.

Val Kilmer was another star who stayed at a separate hotel, and instead of picking Tom Cruise's one, he went with the manager to a hotel in town in the other direction.

"Okay guys, we can go to the bar and have a beer. Wednesday and Saturday are base pilot nights, and we can go to the bar any other time." Ronald slapped the hormonal excess. The actor rushed to the bar. Instead of letting them binge in hotels, drink beer in a controlled manner.

Ronald didn't participate in the beer party. He went back to the hotel by himself, took a Bruce Webb magazine from the room, and read it in the hotel lobby bar.

Ronald ordered a cocktail and drank it slowly while watching. This Bruce Weber magazine is full of photos of shirtless men, from all angles and in various poses.

In the photo of this issue, there is a group photo of three people, one looks like Tom Cruise, the other looks like Fang Kilmer, three people are posing by the swimming pool, their naked upper body reflects the sun, Muscle lines appear to be very good.

"How was this shot? Why are the muscles so obvious?" Ronald said to himself after taking a sip of wine. He is studying how to make the male stars sexy and win the love of female audiences.

"They're all smeared with olive oil. I have some of Julia's classmates who went to take pictures like this." Actress Kelly McGillis, wearing a pair of high heels, walked over and saw Ronald looking at these magazines The photo shows a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Do you usually read these magazines to relax?"

"Ah? No, I was thinking about the next shot of beach volleyball." Ronald quickly closed the magazine, and the beautiful male body was locked inside and put aside.

"Why don't you go out to the bar with the lads?" Ronald asked McGillis.

"I'm not interested in those hairy guys, I like men with depth." McGillis glanced at Ronald's magazine, ordered a cocktail, and sat beside Ronald, "Don't mind. ?"

"Of course not, please take a seat." Ronald asked her to sit down.

"Actually, several of our leading actors are of very high standards, not just celebrities with a pretty face. You'll know if you have been in contact with them for a while. Besides, you have to film the scene where you are attacked by the Lone Ranger in a bar. , you can go to familiarize yourself with the place first."

"Honestly, these scenes are no challenge for me. I promised Paramount, but also for the sake of the film contract." McGillis tapped Erlang's legs, his pants wrapped around his plump buttocks, and shook it a few times on purpose.

"Besides, Fang Kilmer is actually a bit of the star you said with only a pretty face. He can't even tell whether my object is I or me."

"Pfft..." Ronald almost spit out the cocktail, "Hahaha".

Fang Kilmer is indeed more hypocritical and not too educated. Although he has been at Julia College for four years, he spends most of his time with women who are helpful to his acting career.

"Anyway, I like your directing style." McGillis clinked glasses with him, "I wish you all the best in directing."

"I wish you a good performance too."

Meanwhile, Don Simpson got his hands on the latest issue of The Hollywood Reporter in a fine rehab center outside Los Angeles.

"Damn

it", he flipped to the version where "Top Gun" started shooting, and the photos of the three leading actors came into view.

"I knew they weren't paying attention, hey...I'm going to call, listen, I'm going to call. I'm going to call Hollywood director Ronald Lee. It's business."

Don Simpson began to cry.

A tall black caregiver came over and said, "Mr. Simpson, you have already called this week. Our Rehabilitation Center allows you to give a number and make a call a week."

Don Simpson sat down helplessly. On the first day he arrived at the rehab center, he called his girlfriend and wanted her to come in with him. But after the female partner refused, the nurse would not let him make the second call.

This is the rule of the Rehabilitation Center. They are afraid of rich customers and call someone to deliver...

Don Simpson was a little chagrined, knowing after a meeting with Paramount CEO Frank Mancuso that he was a hard-headed man living in 1950s Hollywood.

After Mancuso learned about the progress of "Top Gun" and looked at the choice of actors, the first question was to question Tom Cruise's height.

In his mind, men in Hollywood are about six feet or more, preferably Jimmy Stewart, or Gary Cooper, so that when they kiss beautiful women, they can match the composition of high and low.

Tom Cruise's height is his fault, he looks shorter than Kelly McGillis, and Frank Mancuso also praised Kilmer, thinking that he is tall enough to play the leading role.

Don Simpson wanted to remind Ronald that he must try to avoid the appearance of McGillis being taller than Cruise in the stills and the scenes where the two appear at the same time.

Now neither Bruckheimer nor Ronald have thought of this, and Tom Cruise looks about as tall as McGillis in the opening photo, and both are a bit shorter than Val Kilmer.

The people sent by Frank Mancuso, when they go to the crew to check, will definitely report this question back to him. At that time, his conservative brain does not know what will happen.

"Mr. Simpson, do you remember me?" A beautiful woman with a hoarse voice spoke to Don Simpson next to her.

"Aren't you the one from Ronald..."

"Demi, Demi Moore" Demi was wearing a hospital gown, "I can be discharged from the hospital today. If you have any message for Ronald, I can do it for you."

Don Simpson carefully avoided the nurse's gaze. "You said to him, don't make Tom look shorter than McGillis, and don't make Fang Kimer look too much taller than Tom."

"That's all?" Demi asked in surprise.

"That's all, besides, if you have a way, bring me some... come in."

"Mr. Ronald, your number." In the bar of the hotel, a waiter came to inform Ronald.

"Sorry," Ronald got up to answer the phone. McGillis was a good chat partner and the two had a great chat.

"Ronnie, it's me, Demi."

"Demi? What about you? Your treatment at the Rehabilitation Center is over?"

"Yes, listen to me first. I'm in the phone booth and I don't have much change. Mr. Don Simpson asked me to bring you a message." Demi relayed Simpson's words.

"Thank you, I don't know how to thank you this time." Ronald thanked Demi, this information is very important, it seems that tomorrow's play should be revised.

"You can do it now, I'm out of money and I'm stuck at the public transport station, can you ask someone to pick me up." Demi reported the address.

"You wait and don't move, I'll let someone pick you up."

Ronald called Bud Jr. and asked him to pick up Demi outside the Rehabilitation Center. She didn't want her boyfriend Emilio to know her predicament and used the excuse of going abroad for vacation.

"Do you have any change? Give Demi two hundred dollars and find a clean hotel for her to stay in, and wait for the weekend."

Ronald returned to the table.

McGillis bought the order, and she stood up and smoothed the creases after sitting for a long time by running her hand over the back of her trousers.

Ronald stared at her well-groomed legs in high heels.

"Why, am I smart enough to dress like this?" McGillis smiled, "I heard that you are good at photographing women's legs."

"I'd more like to see how you look barefoot without high heels."

"Hahaha..." McGillis grinned, "then come to my room."
