King of Hollywood

With the explosion on Fulton Street, the filming of "This Killer Is Not So Cold" finally kicked off. Although some things were delayed due to some minor problems, the crew completed the filming outside the street as planned .

The next filming was basically all indoor scenes. First, it completed the scenes of the special police besieging Leon, such as the fierce gun battle and how Leon dressed up as a special policeman and then got out.

"Scene 45 of Scene 94, get ready" With the voice of the recorder, the prop gun started firing. Similarly, compared to the firefight on the big screen, the shooting scene is really bad enough, especially for Adrian's safety, except for some close-up shots, even blank ammunition is not allowed to be used, which looks even more fake. This is similar to an explosion scene, and it has to be processed in the later stage to have an impact. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a game in this way.

Of course, the actors would not think that they were playing games, and all of them were engrossed in the firefight. Although Adrian has directed shootout scenes before, this is the first time this kind of large-scale exchange of fire has been shot, so Masterson is still needed to help steer the scene.

This part of the shot took about half a day. Adrian, who has made a lot of movies, is already very good at learning during shooting, and he still has a lot of classic pictures in his head for reference, so everything went smoothly. He even put forward a few suggestions, and after analyzing with the action design team, it made Jean Renault's shooting look even sharper.

Still, some shots were delayed, even though Natalie was doing well that afternoon. So the next shots are some fragmentary life shots, such as Matilda shopping home, or cleaning the room for Leon and maintaining guns, or Leon sitting and sleeping with sunglasses and so on.

Although Lyon and Matilda changed their residence twice in the movie, the rented apartments for filming are all nearby, and at most it is a bit troublesome to run around.

As the filming continued, Adrian began to add some storylines to the trivial life shots, the most important of which was Matilda sitting on the floor of the stairs smoking a cigarette and then meeting Leon.

"Remember, Natalie, when the time comes, you just need to lift the cigarette up and not put it in your mouth." Adrian sat beside Natalie and talked to her about the next situation. He redesigned the scene here, intending to use the girl's movement of moving the hand holding the cigarette away from her face to show that she is smoking. He didn't want Matilda to appear on the screen with a cigarette in his mouth, which would blur some of the audience's attention. These impressions, as long as they are adjusted well, are good for the movie.

"Why can't you put it on your lips, Ed?" Natalie asked, "Don't you think it looks a little fake?"

"It's not really true even if you put it on the lips," Adrian laughed. "And the audience would not like to see a 12-year-old girl smoking, even on the screen."

"But I don't really smoke." Natalie curled her lips and spread her hands. Although there was disapproval on her small face, her well-behaved and mature appearance was very cute.

"Yes, but other people don't think so," Adrian couldn't help but reached out and rubbed her head, "Okay, clever little guy, you have to understand that unless you never get in touch with others, it's a must. Consider other people's opinions."

"Okay, okay, I see." Natalie shrugged, and then gave Adrian a grimace, "This is the first time, Ed, does my head feel good?"

Adrian laughed, shook his head, and then greeted everyone to get ready to start. After getting along for a period of time, Natalie has initially established her popularity among the crew with her delicate and lovely appearance and maturity far beyond her peers, and she has become more and more acquainted with him and the other two leading actors.

Renault and Oldman are very interesting guys in private, and they often like to joke around when they are resting. With Natalie's intelligence, she also talks to them, and they have a very harmonious relationship with each other. But Adrian is the most harmonious. As he said before, when a girl shares her most intimate things with you, she will automatically regard you as the person she trusts the most.

In fact, after the shooting that day, Natalie secretly told Adrian that the reason why she was able to perform so well in the last time was not only that she had the idea of ​​not admitting defeat, but also simulated the feeling of her parents being killed. With the mood not wanting to disappoint him. That's a good sign, isn't it? So after these few days, they are already calling each other by nicknames.

"Everyone, get ready." With the assistant director's voice, the whole crew immediately started to work. This time, Adrian did not resist the camera to shoot, but stood aside and watched quietly.

Leon didn't like to take the elevator, so every time he went back to his room, he took the stairs. He was wearing a black trench coat, round sunglasses, and a round hat. This made him look a bit rustic and at the same time give off an alternative feeling, so he attracted the attention of the girl sitting in the corridor, and greeted him when he passed by behind him.

Similarly, this young girl with a lonely body also made Leon's eyes fall on her involuntarily, and he looked at her for a few seconds before asking: "Why hide the cigarettes?"

"This building is full of rats," the girl replied in a low and soft voice, "I don't want the old man to know, there's enough trouble."

Leon immediately noticed the bruises in the corners of her eyes, so he bent down: "What's going on."

"I fell off the bicycle." The girl avoided his eyes.

Leon didn't say much, straightened up and walked to his room, but the girl stopped him again: "Don't tell my dad about smoking, okay?"

Leon looked at her, although she still didn't speak, and continued to walk to his room, but the girl knew that he had agreed, so her eyes stayed on him until he entered the room, and the initial contact and trust were established. .

"Very good, very good." Adrian clapped his hands involuntarily, and there was a round of applause immediately.

"Are you talking, Ed?" Natalie immediately returned to her eccentric look, blinking at Adrian and asked with a smile.

"Okay, Nada, you know what I'm talking about," Adrian rolled his eyes, but added: "You are all very well, especially you, Nada, Matilda is almost for you Made to measure."

That's right, with the increase of shooting time, Adrian can basically recognize this point. Matilda and Natalie have too many similarities, such as rebelliousness and stubbornness, such as trying to make the young self appear more mature and so on. Of course, Natalie is smarter than Matilda. Although she is only less than 12 years old, she is just a little girl, but she knows what she wants and will work hard for it. She also knows how to compromise and what to do. to express yourself.

But the degree of fit with the role is very high. From a certain angle, she can be regarded as a real performance.

"Okay, it's time for you to play, Gary." Adrian gave Natalie a thumbs up, and then greeted Oldman who was getting ready, followed by the debut of the evil policeman Stan.

As a police officer of the anti-narcotics team, Stan gave a package of drugs to Matilda's father for safekeeping, but when he got it two months later, the 100% purity became 90%. But Matilda's father, Li Ling, was stunned and insisted that he didn't know, which eventually led to the tragedy of destroying the family.

I have to admit that Oldman's ability to control this kind of role, when the boy and Matilda's father failed to negotiate, he had to disturb Stan, who was listening to the music, and he turned around with that nervous and evil look It gave people a sense of oppression, and even made the fat actor who played Matilda's father gasp involuntarily.

Although the movements of stroking and sniffing each other while holding each other were a bit funny, but when his deep voice sounded, the feeling of oppression did not diminish at all: "Do me a favor and find out who did it."

"It turns out that my judgment is correct. These roles are too suitable for you, Gary." After shooting these shots, Adrian half-jokingly said to Oldman.

"Be careful with your words, Ed." Oldman glanced at him, stretched out his hand and tapped in the air, still speaking in that low, oppressive tone. Apparently, he's still immersed in the character's emotions, not fully pulled out.

"As expected of an excellent actor." Natalie came to Adrian at this time, looked at Oldman who took a water bottle handed by the assistant and looked up and took a big sip, and said enviously with her tongue out.

"That's not the best," Adrian shook his head. "You know Jodie Foster? Not only can she get herself into a scene very quickly, but she can also get out of it very quickly-after the filming is over, just eat Serve a big sandwich and you'll recover in no time."

"Really?" Natalie asked curiously.

"Of course, when you come to Los Angeles to make a movie, you can ask her personally." Adrian said with a smile.

"Going to Los Angeles to shoot a movie..." Natalie rolled her eyes and didn't know what she was thinking.

"Okay, don't think so much, go to the costumer to change clothes, and then we are going to shoot the most important scene for Matilda and Leon." Adrian said at this time.

"The rescue scene?" The little girl's eyes lit up, "Aren't you planning to shoot again in a few days?"

"Because you performed very well today, I think you can try it." Adrian stared at her, making Natalie a little embarrassed.

"Of course, it's also because I don't want to add to Gary's burden. If he spends a lot of time adjusting the play every time he ends, we will be in trouble." Adrian suddenly changed the subject, "Otherwise, if you get too involved in the play , maybe one day he'll find a gun and kill us all."

"I said Ed, next time you speak bad things behind someone's back, can you not let the person hear you." Oldman, who had recovered, said teasingly at this time.

"Unfortunately, Gary, I didn't say it behind my back, I said it face to face." Adrian waved his hands, and suddenly there was a burst of laughter around him. ()
