Chapter 15 Entering the play or dreaming

This movie does not have a big scene, strictly speaking, it is a scene between three or four people, the boy and the doctor, the boy and the mother, the doctor and the wife, and David Fincher also grasped the theme very well. , Thriller is just a coat, communication and affection are what the movie really wants to express.

Although under the strict requirements of David Fincher, the shooting speed is not fast, but it is also not slow, especially as time goes on, whether it is Al Pacino or Nicole Kidman The better it is, as for Ryan, he has encountered a lot of trouble, and he has been out of the show for longer and longer.

Cut!

After David Fincher called to stop, Ryan was still sitting in the high-back chair, unable to return to his senses, as if the whole world had abandoned him, and he could only hide in his own world to seek comfort and peace. Protect.

It's not the first time this has happened. Al Pacino and the staff have tried to step up to help him before, but as soon as they get close to the boy, he's like the ghost Cole in the script. , became frightened, flinched, and panicked.

Whenever this happens, only Nicole Kidman can approach him normally, and only her embrace can provide him with warmth and help.

It took several minutes for Ryan to wake up, leaning hard on the high-back chair, letting out a long sigh of relief, saying that the actor can be retracted freely, but what about him? You can only put it but not take it back, what's going on? Especially when he was immersed in Cole's world, the extremely dark memories of his previous life as a child would always occupy his mind.

Ryan, you need to rest. David Fincher solemnly suggested.

No, David. The boy shook his head resolutely, I'm at my best now, please believe me?

David Fincher persuaded a few more words. Seeing that the boy was resolute, he had to sit back in the director's chair and start the deployment. The following shot is one of the most important shots in the film.

The faint light reflected on the corridor, and with the light click, the door was opened to a gap, and the boy in shorts and shorts stuck his head out of the gap, his pale face was full of hesitation, he was a little scared, After looking back and forth for a while, I finally made up my mind and rushed into the toilet with a twist.

Suddenly, the boy felt that something was passing behind him, turned around slowly and terrified, and just stood in front of the toilet, looking so lonely and helpless.

After hesitating for a while, the boy decided to go take a look. He walked slowly, the hesitation on his face had turned into unease, and the sound of the kitchen utensils was heard in the kitchen. He thought his mother was Make breakfast and feel a little more at ease.

Walking into the brightly lit kitchen, the boy asked tentatively, Mom?

The woman in the pink pajamas turned sharply and said in a low, sharp voice, No! Dinner isn't ready yet, what do you think?

Her face was covered with blue and purple scars, and with a hysterical expression, she looked very scary. She roared and stretched out her hands in anger, with deep knife marks all over her wrists, You can never hurt me again, Lanny! You forced me to be like this!

The boy couldn't bear this terrifying scene anymore, he turned around suddenly, and ran back to his bedroom desperately. However, the hysterical roar of the female ghost continued to come, and the boy didn't even think about it, he got into the room. In the red tent, facing the statues of the Virgin Mary and Jesus collected from the church, tears of helplessness and despair flowed down in the repressed weeping.

cut!

Everyone including David Fincher breathed a sigh of relief, they didn't expect this important set of scenes to pass in one go, that boy is so good, combined with his performance over the past month, except for the word genius Besides, they really don't know how to describe him.

However, in the red tent they had ignored, Ryan was still sitting on the ground motionless, the look of loneliness, helplessness and despair not only did not disappear, but became more and more serious, and the pair of bright sky blue eyes gradually disappeared. Glorious, tears poured out like a flood that burst a levee.

The little boy with black hair and black eyes was unusually thin. The clothes he was wearing were not only shabby, but also had a lot of patches. The black schoolbag he was carrying was also shabby, and it was so heavy that it almost bent his spine.

He pushed open the door of the classroom with force. Several classmates were playing games near the door. There was a very unfriendly light in their eyes, and then they left in a hurry. As he walked towards the seat, he did not know who brought head, many people in the classroom shouted in unison, Fool! Beggar! Fool! Beggar!

The little boy bit his lower lip so hard that he didn't even notice the blood dripping out.

Fool! Beggar!

The booing grew louder and louder, he couldn't take it any longer, took off the black schoolbag he was carrying, and slammed it on the head of the male classmate who was closest to him, one, two...

You're just a troublemaker who only causes trouble for us. Can't they bear it when they scold you? Look at you, what kind of people are you? You're all wild children thrown away by your parents, why? I'm not right, You dare to stare at me, I will let you stare...

The head of the orphanage slapped the boy on the body, biting the boy's lips even tighter, but there were no tears in his eyes.

Ryan! David Finch shouted, seeing that the boy not only did not respond, but a trace of blood oozes out of his lips, and those bright sapphire-like eyes were gradually losing their luster, and he shouted in a hurry , Quick! Go and get Miss Kidman.

Nicole was taking off her makeup and didn't even wear her shoes. She rushed over barefoot, ignoring everything around her, and rushed directly into the tent where the boy was, and hugged him tightly into her arms.

Ryan! Ryan! Wake up!

The boy just stared blankly with his eyes open, as if he only had this body left. Nicole's heart couldn't stop trembling. She felt that the boy was getting cold, not physically, but spiritually. Yes, the Ryan she was familiar with, the Ryan she loved deeply, the Ryan she depended on for her life, was getting farther and farther away from her, and it seemed that it might disappear at any time.

No~ Ryan! Come back soon!

Nicole Kidman pressed her forehead tightly against the boy's forehead, trying to use her body temperature to warm the boy's gradually cold soul, and to call back the most important thing in life to her with an affectionate call people.

Damn it! I knew it, I knew it, you shouldn't be making this fucking movie! Ryan, I swear! If you don't wake up, I'll send you to a mail school, or a catholic school! God and Satan swear at the same time! I swear, I will personally demolish the orphanage that made you fall into pain and darkness, and I will definitely send that sow black pig to Alcatraz!

Panic gradually appeared in Nicole's eyes. She was hysterical and didn't know what she was talking about. Fortunately, there were no black people in the crew, otherwise she would get into big trouble.

Looking at the boy's clenched lips and the blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, Nicole couldn't control herself any longer, her blue eyes flashed twice, and two bean-sized tears rolled down.

Tears swept across her white cheeks, absorbed her breath, and dripped on the corners of the boy's cheeks and mouths with feelings that had penetrated into the soul, and fell into his heart that was gradually occupied by coldness and darkness.

The character of the young man is extremely stubborn, like the short black hair standing on his head. He watched the beautiful girl go farther and farther. The person who once gave him warmth and light for ten years has finally disappeared from his world forever. Among them, from that moment on, the dark clouds covered the sun, and the darkness replaced the light.

Time came to that night again. The drunken, smelly, numb young man like a piece of dead wood opened another bottle of beer, and when he lifted it, he was about to pour it into his throat. Suddenly, two drops of liquid fell from the sky and landed on it. his face.

Why are you so familiar? This kind of smell, this kind of feeling... The young man finally remembered something, his hand loosened, and the wine bottle shattered on the ground, An Xin? No! This is Nicole!

An Xin? Nicole! Hearing the boy in his arms finally made a voice, Nicole said quickly, Ryan, I'm here! I'm right by your side, I'm not going anywhere!

The boy's eyes blinked, and the dazzling eyes gradually regained their brilliance, and the sky blue eyes became brighter and brighter. Nicole could feel that the familiar Ryan was back, but... it was just that she had a kind of Unspeakable feeling, Ryan seems to be a little different.

I'm sorry, Nicole, for worrying you. The boy hugged her tightly, as if only this embrace in the world could make him feel warm and peaceful.

Ryan, if...if you can, don't scare me like this again, okay? Nicole panted softly, and she hasn't calmed down until now.

Don't worry, Nicole, I just remembered a lot of dark memories.

Then... Who is An Xin? After living together for several years, Nicole also understood some Chinese.

An...An Xin? Ryan is indeed a genius in acting, and the surprised expression at this time is completely natural, I'm talking about - An Xin, Nicole!

He deliberately slowed down and repeated it word by word in Chinese so that Nicole could hear it clearly.

Nicole, I think Ryan needs to rest! David Fincher came over at this time, You don't have much footage left, I'll give you a few days of vacation and take Ryan to play around. , he's a little too involved in the play.

Too deep into the play? The boy sighed, he couldn't tell whether he was too deep into the play or fell into a dream.

Okay then. Nicole agreed, looking at the boy in her arms, Where do you want to go, Ryan?

New York! Without even thinking about it, the boy gave the answer subconsciously.
