Chapter 365 Don't forget to notify

In London in February, you can already smell the breath of spring, and Warsaw, the capital of Poland, is still in a world of ice and snow. Because of his physique, Ryan doesn't like this kind of weather the most, but many shots of The Pianist , all need to be completed in ice and snow.

In the hotel room, Ryan was sitting by the old-fashioned fireplace, enjoying the poor and nutritious meals, just about to pick up the hot coffee next to him, when Roman Polanski, who was sitting on the sofa, spoke.

Ryan, you have to maintain a diet. If possible, I hope you will be thinner. He reminded.

Roman, believe me, if you send me a roasted whole lamb at this time, I can eat it all! Ryan waved his hands, venting the grievances accumulated in his stomach for a long time, and said, I only weigh one hundred now. A little over thirty-two pounds!

Converted to the metric system, it would be just over 60 kilograms. With Ryan's height of 6 feet 1 inch, such a thin weight is like the bamboo in the exterior pictures sent by Ang Lee.

Ryan even wondered if the snowstorm outside was a little bit bigger, would he fly into the sky and become a part of the snowstorm.

Maybe it can become a snowman!

Cranky, distraction is undoubtedly a good way to deal with hunger. Ryan was very helpless. The sudden snowstorm in Warsaw brought huge obstacles to the crew, making the shooting had to be postponed.

Ryan, there are some shots that I want you to be hungry for a while before shooting, and the feeling of hunger helps you understand the situation of the character at that time.

Roman Polanski's words made the situation even worse. Ryan doubted whether it was the right choice for him to invite this guy to be the cameraman.

Shaking his head, Ryan walked to the piano and made some simple preparations. His hands landed on the black and white keys, and Chopin's first ballad in G minor played. Although he threw the music aside these years, he practiced hard when he was a child. After arriving in Warsaw. It didn't take much time to find the feeling of the year. But getting back to a certain level of performance takes time and practice.

Ryan remembered very clearly that Adrien Brody paid a heavy price for this role in his previous life. Even when I was starving every day during the filming, I had to devote at least four hours to practice the piano, which was really nothing to me.

If you want to gain something, you must pay equal or more.

Besides, I am afraid that what I have endured is not even one-tenth of what Spielman himself was back then.

practiced the piano for a while,

Polanski and Ryan discussed the role again. So he left. Originally taking over the director job, he was more focused on the theme of the movie and the script with a cold atmosphere. He never thought that he and the representative figures of Hollywood commercial movies would be the same way.

Unexpectedly. His views on this film actually have so many similarities with his own. Does this guy also have deep views on art films?

It's just why can't he concentrate on artistic creation instead of focusing on those so-called commercial popcorn?

This is simply a crime, a waste of talent is a crime!

Of course, Ryan didn't know Roman Polanski's thoughts, and he didn't care too much about his opinion of himself. This Polish old man's personality is indeed weird, but standing behind the camera, he will become a serious and responsible director, perhaps once With the experience of breaking into Hollywood, he is not like traditional European directors who insist on adding those unknown things that the audience doesn't like at all.

In Ryan's mind, his intersection with Roman Polanski is limited to this movie.

The mobile phone rang suddenly, and the monotonous ringtone was extremely harsh in the quiet room. Ryan looked at the displayed number and smiled.

Hi Nicole.

Honey, guess where I am now. Accompanied by Nicole's voice, there was a woman's coquettish laughter and the sound of rolling waves.

Hawaii? Beach? Ryan asked.

Correct answer, but no extra points. Nicole stopped laughing and asked, What about you, how is your side?

Warsaw is a world of ice and snow, and it is currently suffering from a blizzard. Ryan said helplessly, I'm hiding in the hotel. The old-fashioned fireplace here is very distinctive.

Protect yourself, Ryan. Nicole's voice was obviously worried, Don't forget your physique.

Don't worry, I'm strong. Even though he knew that Nicole couldn't see it, Ryan made a posture with his arms bent.

Don't forget, your health is not good now. Nicole probably remembered Ryan's performance in London, I knew that making this movie would be so hard, and I would stop you if I said anything. .”

Well, my dear, it's only been a few months, and it's going to pass quickly.

Okay, that's it for now... Ah, Taylor! Nicole said after a scream, the little one wants to talk to you.

Then, Taylor's voice rang in his ears, Ryan, I heard it's snowing over there?

It's estimated that the snow on the street can reach knees. Ryan walked to the window, and outside was the world of strong wind and heavy snow.

Oh...that's it. Listening to the voice, Ryan guessed that something good would happen next, and sure enough, I haven't seen snow for a long time, Ryan, can you mail me a copy?

After finishing speaking, the little guy over there has already let out a crisp laugh.

Honey, if I have a chance, I will let FedEx send you to the North Pole to see the snow...

No, it's too cold in there.

After hanging up the phone, most of the depression caused by dieting disappeared. Ryan was just about to go around the lobby of the hotel when the mobile phone rang again.

This time it's a number from Los Angeles.

Hi, Ryan.

Although his voice was hoarse and blurred, Ryan still recognized its owner, Charlie?

I didn't expect it to be me, that's right, I guess you seldom think of me.

You...drinking? Ryan asked tentatively.

I'm in a good mood, I drank a little.

A good mood? According to Ryan's judgment from the voice, it seems that this should be said in reverse, right?

What happened, Charlie?

Do you know, Ryan, I won the Golden Globe Award. The Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Drama Series is a very important award. Many people have congratulated me. People who know me, people who don't know me, some who come to the door in person, There are also phone calls...

I'm sorry, Charlie. Ryan scratched his head. After he explained the public relations matter, he forgot about it. It's not too late to say congratulations now?

Late, how could it be? Charlize Theron's voice sounded very weird, as if she was biting her lips and tongue, suppressing something, I'm not an idiot, with my qualifications and connections, if you weren't behind me If not, this award will definitely not fall into my hands...

Listening to the strange murmur on the phone, Ryan sighed, Charlie...

Ryan, how should I thank you? Oscar Best Actress nomination, wow... how do you think I can thank you? South African Diamond never stopped saying, According to Hollywood rules, I have to thank you , Don't say we are good friends, I have never regarded you as my good friend!

Charlie, you drank too much. Ryan suddenly felt a headache.

Where are you now, London or Warsaw?

The person on the other side of the phone must have drunk too much, Ryan didn't listen to what he said, and continued to talk to himself, I've been in Hollywood for so long, and I know the rule that what you give is what you get back...

Okay, Charlie, stop talking drunk.

Frowning, Ryan sighed again and simply hung up the phone, God knows what a drunk woman would say.

It seems that I should keep some distance from that South African diamond?

After living for so many years in the past and the past, Ryan is well aware of the inferiority of men. Even if his control is a little stronger, he is definitely stronger than other men. Otherwise, there will be no Empress Nicole, and there will be Na Tully...

Even if the other party is my favorite type from figure to careful personality, but...

Ryan finally made up his mind. From now on, we should leave the matter of Charlize Theron to Pai Kingsley, and he should not get involved in it. If something happens out of control, it will be a big trouble .

Warsaw is a world of ice and snow, but Wellington, the capital of New Zealand in the southern hemisphere, is scorching summer. Peter Jackson temporarily moved his studio to this city to cooperate with the filming of Lord of the Rings.

At this time, the person in charge of the crew, including him and his wife, was confirming the final audition results for several roles.

Do you have any opinions on the candidate for Legolas? Seeing everyone shaking their heads, Peter Jackson continued, That's him.

He said to his assistant, Send a formal notice to Orlando Bloom's agent.

Then, the New Zealand fat man named a bunch of actors, such as Sir Ian McKellen who played Gandalf, Elijah Wood who played Frodo Baggins, and Kate Bran who played Kellan Trill. Chet wait.

So far, there is only one main character left in this group play, and the candidate has not yet been determined.

Arwen? Evening Star. Peter Jackson picked up an audition photo in the file, the person on it had black hair and a long face, I think she is the most suitable candidate.

Julius Stewart shook her head without hesitation, she could say nothing else, she would not agree with anything this actor said.

Peter. Francis Watts gave her husband a wink.

She didn't expect her husband to be so stubborn. Almost most people in the industry had heard about the actress, and she definitely couldn't pass the Jenkins film business.

Oh well.

Peter Jackson was neither an idealist nor a stubborn paranoid. He took another information, Then choose her.

He turned his head again and said to his assistant, Don't forget to inform Miss Charlize Theron's agent. ()
