Chapter 366: Shooting in Warsaw

Please remember the URL of this site:; Please recommend promotional introductions to your QQ group [Weibo/WeChat] forum posts! The blizzard that ravaged Warsaw finally stopped. Staying for one more day will consume green dollar bills. Even if Ryan paid more than 30 million US dollars for the production cost of this film, the money is not wasted like this.

The crew hired a large number of people, and with the assistance of the Warsaw City Hall, it took more than a day to clear out the temporary studio location and several blocks of the location.

Before filming, Ryan still had important things to do, which was to dye his long-grown hair black.

For a long time to come, his hair will keep this color, because after the filming of The Pianist, and Aragon, Peter Jackson personally called, hoping that he can appear in May at the latest new Zealand.

Although The Pianist is also about the Holocaust, its style is completely different from Schindler's List. Whether it is the script provided by Ryan or the picture conceived by Roman Branski, there is no sensational element. Some are icy, the kind of objective to cruel icy.

Ryan naturally knew how to act in the filming, and even if there were problems, they were minor problems. The other Jewish actors seemed to have difficulty adapting, even though Roman Polanski had said enough before the filming started.

God, look, look, they're building walls!

The actress named Jessica Kate Meyer stood in front of the window and saw the workers on the street outside building walls, as if she wanted the Jewish Quarter to be completely sealed off. Her voice was a little loud and frightened .

Just as Ryan and a few people gathered around the window, Roman Polanski behind the camera shouted to stop.

He walked up to the actress, pointed out the window and said, What I need is peace, look. Look, there is a wall outside, you don't need surprise, you don't need emotion.

The actors, including Ryan, quickly took their positions, and the assistant director called out to start.

Look, come and see. The actress seemed to have found the state, and there was no emotion in her lines, They are building walls.

The Spielman family stood in front of the window, looking out silently, like a group of bystanders.

After filming another indoor group scene. Ryan walked to the side, sat on the rest chair and slowly adjusted his breathing, because most of the cast members were Jewish actors, just like when filming Schindler's List\

,"The atmosphere of the crew was a little depressing.

Need something to drink?

Hi Chen.

The person who came over was Chen Jiazheng. He came here with the last batch of Jenkins Films staff before the filming started, and temporarily acted as an assistant to Roman Polanski's assistant, in layman's terms. That is the odd job in the crew.

Don't underestimate such an inconspicuous position. There are countless students who are students of the USC Film Academy who have earned a lot of money and can't get into the official film crew.

Ryan. Before coming here, Professor Great asked me to tell you that if you fail to meet the required requirements this semester, he will definitely not let you graduate next year.

After handing over the hot coffee, Chen Jiazheng sat next to Ryan. Our mentor, Mr., is a man of his word.

Don't worry, I won't let Professor Gretel get hold of it. Ryan suddenly thought of the other three guys, Where are Darren and the others?

This kind of opportunity to practice in the crew. They shouldn't let it go.

Darren and the others are more interested in horror films. They followed Ms. Sloan to the set of Scream 3. Chen Jiazheng looked at the Jewish actors, seemingly in a daze, and said after a while, I see After reading the original book, and reading the crew you wrote in the company, I specially asked Ms. Sloan to come to Poland.

Just give me a call. Ryan patted his arm, Chen Jiazheng shook his head, and said suddenly, It's my greatest achievement to meet friends like you and Darren here.

You have helped me too much, he added.

Ryan switched to Chinese, Okay, don't talk about these girls, tell me why you came here?

Ryan made some vulgar words, which caused Chen Jiazheng to smile, but then he resumed his serious expression, Currently, the best and most influential movie about the massacre is Schindler's List, I know you He starred in that movie, and now that he is making The Pianist and playing Mr. Spielman himself, there must be something unique about him in this movie.

He seemed to be hesitating, but he still said it, Ryan, don't you know what China was in World War II? The crimes committed by the Japanese in my country are absolutely no less than the Holocaust of the Jews by the Nazis...

Feel sorry.

It was only when he said this that he remembered that there was a Jew on the opposite side.

It's okay. Ryan asked after making a gesture of indifference, Is it... the Nanjing Massacre?

You know about this?

After staying in California for so many years, Chen Jiazheng naturally knew that the vast majority of Americans neither knew nor cared about this tragedy in history.

Ryan was silent.

The Japanese still don't recognize...

Listening to Chen Jiazheng's intermittent words, Rui En remained silent.

If possible, I would really like to make a movie with my own hands to remind the world that a group of wild beasts also committed horrific tragedies in the Far East during World War II.

Looking at his friend full of confidence, Ryan broke the silence, Chen, I... am an outsider, so I don't have much to say. Just to remind you, there is a book called Rabe's Diary, which should be from 1996 or 1997. It’s published, and it’s about the history you mentioned, if you have time, you can look it up, it’s sure to be helpful to you.”

Also, if you need, I can find someone to introduce Ms. Zhang Chunru to you. Ryan asked suddenly, Are you sure you don't want to stay in Hollywood?

After graduation, I will return to China. Chen Jiazheng said very firmly.

All right.

Everyone has their own ideals, and this kind of thing cannot be forced. Ryan thought for a while, If you need help, just ask. Although I don't know it very well, I think whether it is China or the United States, if there is no money, there will be no excellence. movie of.

Even though he said this, Ryan knew that if Chen Jiazheng returned to China to develop, the help he could help was very limited.

Compared with Steven Spielberg back then, Roman Polanski's shooting speed can only be described as slow speed, and he can only shoot a few shots in a whole day, which is a common occurrence, and the crew officially started The shooting time is not long, and actors including Ryan need some time to adapt to his style.

Time slowly entered late March, the coldness in the air in Warsaw gradually dissipated, and the sun became warmer and warmer, but the good weather did not bring about substantial changes in the progress of the crew. Ryan and Polanski had a disagreement over the remaining scenes.

Sufficient hunger allows you to understand what Spearman was deprived of. Without a certain degree of personal experience, it is difficult for you to understand his original behavior.

On the street full of debris, Roman Polanski is yelling at Ryan, If you don't know how much hunger will affect your behavior, how can you go beyond the desire for food as an actor? think?

Mr. Polanski, I am a person first, and an actor second. If I can't even guarantee the most basic physical strength, how can I talk about acting? The old-fashioned suit was covered on Ryan, and the trouser sleeves were empty. How skinny is he.

Are you afraid that it will affect your image on the Oscars red carpet in a few days? Polanski seemed to have forgotten that what he was facing was not just an actor, but also the producer of the film. choose words.

Ryan's cheeks had been sunken for a long time, and he didn't bother to care about this guy. He went straight to the rest area, sat on a chair, took the dark chocolate prepared by George, and replenished the energy consumed by the shooting.

In his opinion, Polanski seems to be crazy now, faintly revealing that he wants to turn this movie into a milestone work in film history. The requirements for actors are not strict, but to be described as abnormal.

Let’s just talk about myself, in order to film the continuous dieting, I was in a state of hunger almost every day, and my body began to have adverse reactions. Even so, Roman Polanski made him continue to lose weight, as if he was really going to become skinny will be satisfied.

To be able to do this now, Ryan thinks his professionalism is good enough, which can be seen from the admiring eyes of the crew.

Honor is important, but it's not worth it if you completely break your body for it.

Besides, sacrificing his own body to achieve the title of Roman Polanski's great director, he is not so great.

Ryan even considered that if Roman Polanski continued to be paranoid and confused about the situation, then he should be replaced.

It is not a big deal for the producer and lead actor to have a conflict with the director. At this time, someone needs to play a lubricating role in the middle, and Polanski's agent played this role very well.

Ryan, you know Roman's past experience, he just wants to reproduce the situation in the past. The other party stood by Ryan's chair and explained in a low voice for the director, I know his request is a bit too much. ...

Forget it. Ryan waved his hand casually and said, Let's shoot other people's scenes first. I'm going back to Los Angeles to participate in the Oscars tomorrow. When I come back...

As long as you stay in the shape you are now, I guarantee there will be no problems.

The agent wiped the cold sweat that didn't actually exist on his forehead. He was very worried that Ryan would appear on the Oscars red carpet in this appearance. Would those crazy fans charter a plane to Warsaw and kill Roman Poland with his own hands? ski.
