Chapter 34: Constant situation

In the early morning of the next day, the crew continued to shoot, focusing on finishing all the shots in the basement first.

If it weren't for the cold and damp warehouse, the filming of the hero's scene should have ended last night.

In addition, most of the shots in the film are almost shot in the temporary studio in front of you, and the remaining indoor shots need to be shot in the single-family apartment rented by Ryan.

However, the filming progress of the crew was not very satisfactory. As for the newcomer Edward Norton, it was barely passable.

Then, as the jigsaw apostle Monica Bellucci in the film, the situation came out one after another.

Before wearing the jaw clefter, Monica Bellucci's acting skills, although a little poor, were worth extra points for her appearance, which was quite satisfying.

Then once you put on the jaw splitter, it immediately becomes a beautiful wooden stake.

"Remember you're an actor, not a model, and you're not walking a catwalk. Try to be as expressive as possible."

Ryan paused for a moment before explaining: "Amanda Young in the movie, first she is a game survivor, and then she becomes a disciple of the jigsaw. It is definitely not the vase you played in the last movie. It's as simple as that."

In Monica Bellucci's last movie, "The Vampire," one of the vampire brides just needs to be pretty.

But "Chain Saw" is different. The plot of the characters is much more complicated. Amanda was first framed by Eric-Matthew and imprisoned. She became addicted to drugs in prison, and after her life became rotten, she was kidnapped by the jigsaw. Successfully passed the Jaw Ripper test.

Since then, he has been completely reborn, and he regards the jigsaw as recreating his parents, assisting him in arranging various organs, and successfully rehabilitating the horse.

It can be said that Amanda's experience is very tortuous and rich, and it takes a certain degree of difficulty to express it.

Monica Bellucci fell into deep thought, and stories about Amanda kept popping up in her mind.

After a while, she took a deep breath and said, "I need to prepare."

"I'll give you ten minutes."

Ryan gave her ten minutes to shoot the next shot first.

Nicolas Cage, who had watched it for a while, couldn't help but shook his head, and said, "She's too impatient, she should go to some independent films to hone her skills for a while."

"Saw is also an independent film," reminds Sofia Coppola.

"You should know what I mean."

"I mean an art film, not a horror film."

"Hollywood has never been short of vases. On the contrary, there are not many actresses with real acting skills." Nicolas Cage was quite speechless about Sophia who knew the truth.

"Perhaps you are right."

Sofia Coppola said sharply: "It's a pity that she doesn't have this time. What she needs to consider now is how to gain a foothold in Hollywood."

Nicolas Cage glanced at the thoughtful Monica Bellucci, and did not continue to argue with Sofia. There are many actors who sadly leave Hollywood every year, and she is just one of them.

Even if he feels a pity, he still can't change anything.

Most of the famous actresses in Hollywood almost all made their debut as vases in commercial films, and only won awards after becoming famous. Only a very small number of actresses can break out of independent films and switch to commercial films instead.

Often the development prospects of these actresses can be better than the former.

Ten minutes passed, and the filming resumed, and Ryan behind the camera stopped again.

Monica Bellucci showed obvious doubts, and the emotions that had been brewed with great difficulty were almost wiped out. Even the crew couldn't help but look at Ryan.

"This time it's a matter of eyes. Remember that I need a pair of talking eyes. Whether it's panic, fear, or contemplation, helplessness, or confusion, you need to express it with your eyes."

"The jaw cleft is only blocking your face, not your eyes." Ryan finally discovered the key point of the problem.

What he needs now is a pair of talking eyes, not the **** and charming "Marlena" in "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily".

When talking about the eyes, he would think of the eyes of Park Min Young who played the role of Kim Secretary in a certain Korean drama in his previous life. They are definitely a pair of talking eyes, which are unforgettable.

"Eyes!"

Monica Bellucci was taken aback for a moment, she was all focused on her facial expressions just now, and she forgot that she was wearing a jaw cleft, which made her eyes a little weird.

A jaw cleft can hide a face, but not a pair of eyes.

"I understand." Monica Bellucci showed a sudden realization.

When we started shooting again, Monica Bellucci's eyes really changed, as if she could speak. The shooting went very smoothly, but the fly in the ointment was that she was a little too beautiful.

Compared to the actress who played Amanda in her previous life, Monica Bellucci is obviously much more beautiful.

"Stop, take a break."

Ryan was very satisfied with the shot just now.

After taking off the jaw cleft, Monica Bellucci walked up to Ryan without taking a break, showing an apologetic gesture.

"Sorry, Ryan!"

"Okay, don't be sorry, you performed really well just now." Ryan waved his hand, signaling that she didn't need to do this, and besides, she was already very satisfied with her performance just now.

"Monica, I hope you can understand that Amanda's role in the film is very important." Ryan said tactfully.

Compared with the number of appearances of Amanda in the first "Chain Saw", there are only a lot more in the second "Chain Saw", and even many subsequent "Chain Saw" have her figure, almost throughout the whole series.

"Thank you Ryan." Monica Bellucci showed a little excitement.

As long as the film is released and achieves good box office results, a horror series will follow. As one of the important roles in the film, it is enough for her to have the capital to gain a foothold in Hollywood.

"Maintaining this state is the greatest thanks to me." Ryan said with a slight smile.

At this moment, Sofia Coppola hurried over from the outside with a trace of anxiety on her face. Seeing this, Monica Bellucci said goodbye and left with great interest.

"What's wrong!" Ryan asked.

"Something happened to the black actor who originally played Detective David Tapp~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Sofia Coppola said very quietly.

"Notify Helen and ask her to recommend a new candidate. Don't worry about skin color, and leave the rest to the lawyer."

Ryan is inevitably a little depressed. This is the tragedy of an unknown director and a small-budget crew.

The actor has clearly signed the contract, but various situations often occur unexpectedly. There is a high probability that the actor will immediately turn his face and deny anyone when he receives invitations from other big crews.

Of course, there may be other situations, such as drinking, fighting, taking drugs, etc., so he didn't bother to ask what happened, and directly informed Helen to find another actor.

The rest will be handled by the lawyer, and everything will be handled according to the terms of the contract.

Every actor in the crew has signed a contract, and if they break the contract, they will pay a lot of liquidated damages.

As for the so-called political correctness?

Now it is 1994, not 2004, and the influence of black people has not yet been reflected in Hollywood.

When "Chain Saw" was released in the previous life, 9/11 had already happened. The White House needed to unite all forces that could be united, and the status of the black community was naturally getting higher and higher.

Therefore, in many Hollywood movies, there will be a black police detective who upholds justice, which can not only reflect political correctness, but also attract many black people into the cinema.

"I'll notify Helen now." Sofia Coppola immediately called Helen.

Just changing an actor will not have any impact on the crew. What is lacking in Hollywood, there will be no shortage of actors.

Of course, for the shooting plan, more or less need to change the arrangement, that's all.
