Chapter 578: It's all over fire, it's all crazy

Nicole Kidman got up from the red sofa slightly embarrassed, sweaty cheeks, flushed face, looking at Dunn's eyes, shy and angry, "Where did you learn it?"

Tang En stretched, then got up to take a shower, pretending not to know, "What?"

"Don't pretend!"

"what?"

"Just now...you asked me to call you dad, what's the matter?"

Tang En's cool expression disappeared, and he showed a pleasing smile at once, "Nicole, let's play games, add some fun, don't be angry!"

"Angry?" Nicole Kidman shook her head softly. "If I'm angry, I won't agree. But it's fine for us to be alone. Next time I'm with someone else, I don't have to scream, I'm older than you. At ten years old, you still call your father, and you don't feel blush."

Tang En scratched his head and said the truth: "It was a little... weird at first, but then it got more and more exciting."

Nicole Kidman glanced at him, "Who taught you?"

"what?"

"How about pretending? How long have we known each other, don't I know you yet?" Nicole Kidman took Dunn's arm generously, walked into the bathroom to take a shower, and said as she walked, "You can't play. You must have learned from others to do such a ghost trick."

Nicole is Dunn's best female friend, and the two of them can hardly talk about anything.

Tang En didn't hide it, so when he was taking a shower, he quickly told her about the trip to Asia, and briefly described that he had a Japanese/Japanese daughter.

"How old are you to have an eighteen-year-old daughter?"

Nicole Kidman glanced at him half-smiling.

Tang En laughed a few times, "Try it, maybe this kind of development game is very interesting. They said that this is a kind of advanced psychological enjoyment."

Nicole Kidman laughed and said jokingly: "Develop a game? Mental enjoyment? I think you want to grasp both mental and physical enjoyment!"

Dunn was noncommittal and did not respond.

After leaving the bathroom, Nicole Kidman gently took the bath towel and carefully helped Dunn wipe the water droplets from her body. After wiping from head to toe, I started to organize my body.

"No wonder I heard that you kicked both Rose Byrne and Abby Cornish out of Mid-Levels Manor. It turned out to be a new way of playing."

Nicole Kidman tilted her head, wiping her blond hair like a waterfall seriously, looking at Dunn who was sitting on the sofa and wearing socks, and said nonchalantly.

Tang En half-truthed nonsense: "The new house in Malibu has been built. It's not a matter of preparing to move."

Naturally, Nicole Kidman didn't believe it, her subordinates paused and stared at him, "Dawn, do you want... Let me introduce you to an Australian daughter?"

"what?"

Tang En was stunned and couldn't help but look up.

Nicole Kidman said: "If you like it, I'll introduce it to you. It's not like you don't know about my contacts in Australia."

"convenient?"

"The inconvenience is my business, you just need to answer whether you want it or not."

"This..." Tang En pondered for a while, "I don't want anything that other men have touched."

Nicole Kidman gave him a look, "Quirky!"

Ten minutes later, both of them got dressed and returned to the cafe area of ​​the main office.

However, Ella Fisher brought two cups of coffee and joked with a smile, "Nicole, you'd better stay a little longer, the flushing on your face hasn't subsided."

Nicole Kidman patted her with a smile, "Little girl, how dare you make fun of me?"

The two are fellow villagers and have a good relationship.

Tang En took a sip of his coffee, and then he started talking about business, "I asked you to come here because I want to tell you that I want to make an album. Come and sing a song with me."

"Sing? Me?"

"Don't you love music very much?"

Nicole Kidman lightly twisted her hair and said strangely, "Isn't it just singing a song, and you have to call me here? Just make a phone call, right?"

Tang En touched his nose and smiled awkwardly, "Didn't I miss you?"

"Missing me?" Nicole Kidman gave him a look, "I don't think I miss me, but my body?"

"It's different."

Tang En waved his hand, very disapproving.

Nicole Kidman did not continue to embarrass him and changed the subject, "By the way, I heard that you are going to act as an actor and act in a movie, is it true?"

"Huh? Who did you hear?"

Tang En was a little surprised. Could it have been spread in the circle?

Nicole Kidman shook her head and said, "On the phone with Natalie the other day, she told me."

"Oh."

Dunn was stunned.

He is going to star in Martin Scorsese's "The Departed", which is a secret within the company. If it is known to the outside world, it must be a high-level ghost.

"Do I have a chance?" Nicole Kidman looked at Dunn with anticipation.

Tang En smiled, "No, it's a two-man drama. Besides, Leonardo and I are partners, and your height is not suitable. You... It's more suitable for a solo one-man show."

"Okay, oh right, three days ago, I won an association award for best actress, you know?"

"Really? It doesn't matter, anyway, this year's Oscar is none other than you!"

"Lend your auspicious words."

Nicole Kidman gave him a charming glance, graceful and graceful.

...

Martin Scorsese is already working on The Departed.

Although Hollywood is the producer responsible system, but in front of Martin Scorsese, everything is an illusion.

Martin has a unique say in the project of "Infernal Affairs".

Of course, if it was Dunn's suggestion, he would definitely have concerns.

Fortunately, this afternoon, when the two sides were communicating about this project, Tang En gave him a reassurance straight to the point: "Martin, in this movie, I'm just an actor, I'll play it how you want me to play it! "

Martin Scorsese was delighted.

According to his estimation, because it is an adaptation of the film, the design of the script is relatively simple, as long as there are some American changes.

The preparation of the project is no problem. The two leading actors, Dunn Walker and Leonardo DiCaprio, have been confirmed, and the remaining actors can be quickly joined.

Director Martin Scorsese has a lot of face in Hollywood. Even the top superstars can be invited by his own face at a low salary.

Just like Cameron Diaz of "The New York Times", the top actress in Hollywood, starred for almost zero pay.

The biggest reason is that Martin Scorsese's film is a humanistic film with artistic temperament and is the favorite of awards season!

Because it is an art film, "The Departed" cannot blindly cater to the audience's tastes like an entertainment film such as "Infernal Affairs" in terms of shooting techniques, photography skills, plot development, and light and shadow presentation.

"During this period of time, I have watched "Infernal Affairs" a total of eleven times. Overall, I feel that the exaggerated visual effects of this film are too exaggerated, and there are many slow motion and exaggerated camera angles. In order to seize the audience's attention , the production of the film is too busy, and there is no room for thinking about the richer texture of the public film, which is a great pity."

Martin Scorsese sheds light on the crux of the matter.

Dunn said with a smile: "This is a consistent feature of Hong Kong films, just like David Bordwell's evaluation of Hong Kong films - 'Everything is overdone, everything is crazy'."

Martin Scorsese shook his head and said, "But the consequences are unimaginable. The directors of the Hong Kong government are able to master certain shooting skills, and the representative figure is John Wu. They know how to use intense action scenes to create tension. atmosphere, but often reluctance to explore other directions.”

"I don't know about other directors in the Hong Kong government, but John Wu's characteristics are too obvious. His style is essentially no different from the routine skills of "Infernal Affairs". Exciting scenes are not enough. As everyone knows, this is not only a characterization of the director's style, but also likely to make this type of film go into a dead end."

"My career also had a low ebb in the 1980s, but in comparison, John Wu's career is the real Waterloo. His unified tense rhythm and exciting scenes, behind the extreme indulgence of the audience, is the audience once. Another increase in desire/desire, and if he doesn't provide a more prominent hormonal boost in the next film, he's greeted by the Black Abyss."

"I heard that in recent years, the momentum of Hong Kong films has not been very good? I don't know the specific situation, but I think I can see the whole picture from a glimpse. The silence of Hong Kong films is the same as John Wu's career low. Nature. That's what you said just now, 'It's all over the top, it's all crazy.'"

Listening to Jun's words, Tang En couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Everyone has a different opinion, and Martin Scorsese's words point in another direction.

Dunn originally thought that by instructing John Wu not to take on "The Wind Whisperer", he could continue his life in Hollywood~www.wuxiaspot.com~ After such an analysis, it is not the case at all.

John Wu's biggest shackle is the constraint of the Hong Kong film style of "everything goes too far, everything is crazy".

Maybe that's why he wanted to take on war films like "Wind Whisperer" in an attempt to transform.

Unfortunately, the transformation failed.

The tense and exciting action scenes are not too difficult from a technical point of view.

A lot of shots, but they are repeated alternately with "abab" shooting positions.

Through these simple shooting techniques, the audience can skip the parts they have already seen and focus on the subtle changes in the expressions of the actors.

Moreover, after the repeated occurrence of "ababab", when the camera position is moved to point c, the emphasis effect will lead to the next set of strong effects that take over the different processing methods of the lens, such as the "abcde" photography technique.

In this way, James Cameron's "Terminator" series, Robert Zemeckis' "Back to the Future" series, Jane de Bont's "Life and Death" series, and Michael Mann The "Pirates of Fire" played thoroughly.

But what's next?

James Cameron has transformed, Robert Zemeckis has transformed, and the remaining two directors who are still playing the "action, tension, excitement" routine have become second-rate.

This is the reason why many master directors are reluctant to make very enjoyable action films, not only for the pursuit of art, but for the extension of the vitality of their personal careers.

The audience is the parents of food and clothing.

Only by controlling the audience's taste can the master's film be evergreen.

Instead of being kidnapped by the audience, like Hong Kong films and John Wu.

Once the transformation fails or creativity declines, it will inevitably sink quickly.
