In the next few days, the restlessness and dissatisfaction of the crew of "Lola Run" suddenly disappeared, everyone became full of energy, and they no longer had any opinions on Simon's alternative directing style.

As for why.

Have you seen Brian de Palma? "Carrie the Witch", "Scarface".

Live.

Have you seen David Gilles? "Alien", "Nine Angry Men".

Live.

Have you seen Robert Redford? "Tiger and Leopard" ah, "Out of Africa" ​​ah.

Live.

For the staff who were only able to work in low-cost independent production crews in the past, all of them are a group of big bosses in Hollywood. But they all visited the humble little crew of "Lola Run" one after another.

Moreover, in addition to Brian De Palma, David Gilles and Robert Redford also said that they could be named executive producers for "Lola Run".

This is even harder.

You know, if you had known that Brian De Palma was going to be named executive producer, everyone would not have any dissatisfaction at all, and that idiot Josh Wickman would never leave rashly.

Now there are two more heavyweights here again and again.

Who is Simon Westeros?

who cares.

But if you are involved in a work that is named executive producer by three Hollywood stars, Brian De Palma, David Giller, and Robert Redford, this is a real qualification.

If you add such a sum to your resume in the future job search process, you may soon be able to enter the mainstream commercial film circle.

Simon also learned from Ron and Katherine what happened in the Fox Studios studio that day, and he went to watch the demo in person the next day.

Simon was also very surprised by the results of his shooting. He did not expect that he could do so well in advance. As his first directorial work in Hollywood, Simon just squeezed out all the potential of the more than ten memories in his mind as much as possible.

Looking at the footage of "Lola Run", Simon even felt that his performance seemed to be overdone.

However, Simon then did not converge.

Now that it has emerged, let's be more aggressive.

In addition, due to the support of the three big bosses, Simon's command of this small crew quickly became like an arm.

Busy days, time always flies fast.

In a blink of an eye, it was the last day of October, the fourth week of the filming of "Lola Run".

Tonight is Halloween, a very important holiday for Americans, and it happens to be Friday, followed by the weekend.

Therefore, the festive atmosphere becomes more intense.

The "Lola Run" crew filmed the scene of Lola entering the casino these two days.

There are casinos in Los Angeles, and Simon went to a casino in the city center to see it.

However, the city of Santa Monica did not.

certainly.

This is not a problem.

The director said that if there is a casino, there is a casino.

The crew rented a ballroom at a hotel in midtown Santa Monica, and the 'casino' was quickly set up.

Compared with other scenes in "Lola Run", the casino scene is definitely a big scene. In the past two days, the number of group performers invited by the crew has exceeded 50 people.

Even so, with the help of Ron, Catherine and others, Simon was still in control of the entire crew.

However, with more people, it is inevitable that some situations will arise.

Just after the afternoon's shooting started, Sandra realized she had lost her prop ring.

In the original "Lola Run", Lola wore all kinds of bizarre jewelry on both hands. But in the new version, Simon only designed a wide version of the ring for the heroine. The silver ring with a width of one centimeter is engraved with a striking butterfly pattern. This is also the third hint of the "butterfly effect" buried by Simon.

For this kind of small props, Simon will not only customize one.

After getting all the three finished rings, Sandra liked it very much, and Simon gave the three rings to the girl for safekeeping, and he did not plan to take them back after the shooting in the future. Although it is sterling silver, the three rings together are not worth much.

Now, with this little thing missing, things get a little troublesome.

Never thought that the ring that he had been wearing on his hand would be lost, and Sandra did not bring a spare.

The afternoon shots were all about Sandra, and Simon didn't want to get involved in these little details, so he hurriedly sent an assistant director to Sandra's apartment in West Hollywood to pick up props.

Sandra herself has to stay to touch up her makeup.

immediately.

Things went wrong again.

Sandra put the spare ring in a small safe that she bought. The girl did not want to tell outsiders the password, so she signaled the assistant director to bring the safe directly to the crew.

Think about it.

The five-year-old and three-thousand-strong man broke into a girl's apartment, and then came out with a safe.

What scene is this?

So the neighbors called the police.

After some tossing, wait until Ron and Sandra rushed to the Hollywood police station to take the unfortunate

The assistant director brought it back, nearly an hour had passed.

Perhaps it was affected by this accident, and the subsequent shooting was not very smooth.

In desperation, the crew had to announce two hours of overtime.

There are only the last few simple shots left. Although you have to pay expensive overtime pay for overtime, it will definitely save a lot of money than re-renting the scene here next week.

If it's other hours, it's okay to work overtime.

Tonight is the Halloween that many people are looking forward to. The crew members are okay, but many of the group performers are a little unhappy. After some communication and the promise of extra remuneration, everyone reluctantly agreed.

Fortunately, as it approached seven o'clock in the evening, all the scenes of the casino were successfully completed after all.

After finishing work, Simon was watching the staff organize a series of rented casino props, but Ron came over with a white youth in his thirties.

The young man was 1.8 meters tall, wearing a casual shirt and trousers, with short brown hair and some stubble, looking a little sloppy.

The two approached, and without waiting for Ron's introduction, the young man reached out to Simon and introduced himself with a smile: "Simon Westeros, hello, I'm Peter Butler, a reporter for the Los Angeles Times. ."

Simon shook hands with the other party unexpectedly and said, "I know, I happened to read your article about "The Butterfly Effect". Also, Joe called me two days ago, but I Seems to be rejected?"

With Brian De Palma and other three named executive producers, plus the film's location shooting these days, Sandra's striking look inevitably attracts a lot of attention, and Hollywood has more and more people Noticed the movie "Lola Run".

Then, agent Jonathan Friedman called Simon two days ago and said that Peter Butler, a reporter for the Los Angeles Times, wanted to do some interviews with him and the "Lola Run" crew.

Simon is so busy these days that he doesn't want to deal with these things. Moreover, now is far from the time for "Lola Run" to be exposed in the media, so I refused.

I didn't expect that the other party would suddenly appear in the crew today.

When Peter Butler heard Simon's words, his smile remained the same, and he changed his name unknowingly, saying, "Simon, Mr. Ron invited me over, in fact, I've been in the crew for an afternoon. , but you didn't notice. Also, I wonder if you could spare some time, maybe we can chat casually?"

Simon glanced at his producer.

Although I understand that Ron wants to give the movie some exposure, he is still a little dissatisfied with his arrogance.

Feeling Simon's eyes, Ron had to take the initiative: "Simon, this is actually a good opportunity, isn't it? Our movie will still be released in the future."

Simon still shook his head insistently, turned to Peter Butler and said, "Mr. Butler, I'm so sorry, I've been very busy recently, so let's forget about this."

When Peter Butler heard the words, he was not discouraged. Instead, he raised the camera hanging on his chest, with a bit of slyness in his eyes, and said, "Actually, Simon, I have already got enough material to write an article. However, I also know that now is not the best time to reveal "Lola Run". So if you agree to take the time for an interview with me, I can save this article for the Sundance Film Festival next year. Repost."

Simon's eyes flashed when he heard Peter Butler's conditions.

It's November, and there are just over two months left until the Sundance Film Festival in January.

Sundance is precisely the time when Simon wants to push "Lola Run" to the front of the stage.

He didn't expect the reporter in front of him to guess his thoughts so accurately.

After hesitating for a moment, Simon said: "Tomorrow noon, from twelve o'clock to one o'clock in the afternoon, Fox Studios, you only have one hour."

Peter Butler immediately stretched out his right hand again and said with a smile, "Then, I'm looking forward to meeting tomorrow."
