Chapter 156 Who is responsible
A fierce battle scene was completed, and the crew temporarily entered the rest phase. After watching the footage just shot, Duke Ju sat in the ruined winter sun, holding a cup of hot coffee. The unpleasantness caused by the interruption of shooting in the morning, He disappeared completely at this time, but rather happily chatted with Tom Hanks and Leonardo DiCaprio.
Are we going a little too far?
Leonardo's young face was still green, Will such an explosion bring about bad effects?
Influence? Duke seemed very strange, with an expression that we didn't do anything, We just shoot according to the schedule, we can't have a holiday today because the plan changes, right?
That's the truth.
Probably the most affected person before, and now Tom Hanks completely agrees with Duke's words, I'm also very tight on time, and it's impossible to delay the drama indefinitely, the Oscar nominations will be announced in a few days, I I have to go back to North America.
Need to congratulate you in advance?
Hearing Duke's words, Tom Hanks shook his head, Congratulations, Duke, you have already won last year's North American box office champion.
After entering 1995, Independence Day, which was also shown in nearly 200 theaters in North America, after nearly half a year of accumulated efforts, the North American box office finally surpassed Jurassic Park's $357.06 million, reaching 359.91 million. US dollars, created the best North American box office results in recent years, and at the same time pressured The Lion King and Forrest Gump, which have been down, and firmly held the 1994 North American box office champion in their hands.
The film's global box office totaled 888.85 million US dollars. Although most overseas markets have ended its screenings, many remote countries are still trying to reduce their money, and hit the first box office record of Jurassic Park in film history.
These are indeed capitals worthy of congratulations, and the main actors of the crew are also willing to endure the deployment of such a workaholic director, because once Saving Private Ryan is a big hit, they will also be part of the benefits.
The sound of leather shoes stepping on the rubble sounded, Duke turned to look, Robin Grande was coming.
Is something wrong? Duke asked.
Unless it's important, both production managers are the crew's stealth man.
The Braveheart crew is here. Robin Grande avoided a triangular building ruin and said, I want to talk to you.
Who came over?
Not only Duke asked, but Tom Hanks next to him also showed interest. After all, he was the one who was directly affected in the morning.
Not Mel Gibson.
Maybe it's because they have been together for a long time, and occasionally can guess Duke's bad intentions, Robin Grande shook his head and said, It's Bruce Davis, an executive producer of Braveheart.
Hearing this, Duke lost interest, Robin, let Charles go to see him, he must be very happy, you all know where my bottom line is.
Our shooting schedule will not change.
After saying this, Robin Grande went to Charles Rowan.
Leonardo DiCaprio, who was sitting in the back, heard these words completely in his ears, and the corners of his mouth couldn't stop shaking. It seemed that the young director in front of him had a strong sense of revenge. After changing the plan, they In the next few days, the final battle scene will be filmed, and there are many explosions in it. If the crew next door will not be affected, he would rather believe that Duke Rosenberg is a good guy.
He also got up and left here. Just after returning to the actor's resting place, he heard shocking news from someone who was particularly well-informed.
Just when the crew was shooting the explosion scene just now, the horse next door was frightened, not only washed away the set, but also injured many people to varying degrees. Among them, Sean Connery, the most injured, may have a comminuted fracture in his right leg... …
Looking up in the direction he came from, Leonardo saw that the young director was chatting and laughing with Tom Hanks, and he didn't seem to pay attention to what happened next door. En crew has nothing to do, it seems that Sean Connery's injury was completely accidental...
This...is Hollywood? Competition inside and outside the rules everywhere? Want to climb the ladder and succeed like Duke Rosenberg and Tom Hanks without fear of all kinds of competition? Are you going to step on your opponent's head?
Young Leonardo DiCaprio seems to have a deeper understanding of the circle.
On this side, Duke reconvened the cast and departments to start filming. On the other side, in the temporary reception room, Charles Rowan met Bruce Davis, who came on behalf of Mel Gibson.
Sorry, Bruce. Charles Rowan said unhurriedly, In the morning, in order not to affect the shooting of Braveheart, Director Rosenberg had to adjust the shooting plan. Pull them far enough apart that the impact on each other may be minimized.”
The problem is that your filming has affected us! Bruce Davis said angrily, The explosions you keep making have seriously affected our filming, and our horses are frightened by your explosions! Sean Connor Li fell off the horse and was seriously injured!
According to what you mean... Charles Rowan's face turned serious, The crew of Saving Private Ryan is responsible for this?
I can't talk about responsibility, Bruce Davis said in a not very good tone, but you have seriously affected Director Gibson, and the two of us should sit down and negotiate a shooting plan that is acceptable to both sides.
I meant the same thing in the morning. Charles Rowan snorted, and continued without waiting for the other person to speak, You should know what the media and fans call director Rosenberg. We will be shooting in the next few weeks. It's a war drama, a lot of preparations have been done, and adjustments will definitely bring losses, who is responsible for this part of the loss?
you……
Bruce Davis felt anger rushing to his forehead. He was still shooting a literary drama in the morning, and the war scene was only temporarily changed...
We can only say sorry!
Hearing Charles Rowan's indifferent words, Bruce Davis understood that this matter was difficult to resolve through negotiation, and simply said, We will complain to the union for your bad behavior!
This vaguely threatening remark also aroused the anger of Charles Rowan. He was played by Mel Gibson in the morning, and his anger has not yet been released.
Okay! He stared at each other closely, As a member of the Producers Union, since a serious safety accident has occurred in the crew, I think I have an obligation to report the truth to the Screen Actors Guild!
The injuries of Sean Connery and others are indeed related to Saving Private Ryan, but from a legal point of view, they have nothing to do, and this is Ireland, not North America!
Watching Bruce Davis leave unwillingly, Charles Rowan felt a lot more comfortable. The shame of being fooled in the morning was returned to the other party by Duke with several explosions in just half a day. This is simply the most Great way to hit back.
As for Sean Connery's broken leg, he doesn't care at all. What if the other party complains to the union? And behind Saving Private Ryan are three giants, Warner Bros., Walt Disney and Twentieth Century Fox!
Duke didn't intend to care about the follow-up reaction of Braveheart. When he heard the news of Sean Connery's broken leg, he was just a little stunned and continued to shoot himself, regardless of the other party. No matter what, he made up his mind to finish filming the end-credits battle first and then talk about other things.
As for whether it will disrupt Mel Gibson's shooting plan, just like the other party's reaction after Charles Rowan's negotiation, don't care!
The sound of gunshots, cannons, and explosions remained the theme of the set for more than a week.
Clear the scene now, and evacuate unrelated personnel to four hundred feet away!
Looking up at the abandoned clock tower, Duke himself raised the loudspeaker and gave the order, John, your camera lens is fifteen degrees to the left, use a medium shot! Ben, I want a wide-angle close-up! David, pay attention to capturing the tank!
The film crew is busy, the props team is also debugging the refitted tanks, and the pyrotechnic team has long been on the clock tower to set up a blasting point. In order to blow up this half-collapsed abandoned building, the pyrotechnic team used military explosives again. Duke wants irrelevant reasons for people to back off as much as possible.
When the set is set up here, a special photography position is reserved, and there are certain protection measures, so there is no need to worry about the threat of the blasted gravel.
After nearly a month of running-in, the team has found the best rhythm and state. Although the constant explosions are indeed torturing people's nerves, as a person who has followed Duke to shoot the third film in a row, he has also adapted to this noisy environment. Working in a complex environment, even if you occasionally make some small mistakes, you can still complete your work with quality and quantity on the whole.
After being notified by Joss Williams, Duke called to clear the scene again. After confirming that all departments were correct, the notification began to shoot.
The German tank, which was converted from a Soviet-made T-34 tank, slowly turned its muzzle and aimed in the direction of the bell tower. A burst of gunpowder flashed, and the top of the abandoned bell tower exploded violently. The ruins of the building smashed on the ground, causing countless dust, and the small half of the studio was covered with a layer of dust.
Disappointingly, Duke emerged from the main camera position. Regardless of the wet towel sent by his assistant, Duke walked behind the director's monitor to check the footage just shot. The overall effect of this small-scale violent explosion was quite good.
Give you.
When he looked up from the monitor, Sofia Coppola handed over the steaming wet towel in time, Duke took it and wiped it on his face, and she continued, Just received The call from Nancy, Independence Day was nominated for several awards.
