Chapter 105: Accent Control
Nicole Kidman and another girly stylist stood still in the office, and Simon sent Amy away, and went back to the office to look at the girl in front of her.
Similar to the original Uma Thurman, Nicole Kidman at this time also wears a long-hem shirt and black slacks, but the hairstyle is very different.
Uma Thurman's hairstyle in the film belongs to the bob with bangs, while Nicole Kidman has black shoulder-length hair and long bangs that cover her eyebrows, which is the result of Simon's repeated attempts several times.
Nicole Kidman is only 20 years old now, and black hair can make her look a little more mature than blonde hair. And, as we all know, Nicole's eyebrow shape makes her beauty look quite aggressive, which is definitely not the temperament that Mia should have.
At this time, under the thin long bangs, the original aggressiveness in Nicole's temperament is gone, and she even looks like another person, delicate, wild, and full of temptation.
Although it is completely different styles from Uma Thurman, it also conforms to Simon's aesthetics.
No matter how much meaning has been interpreted by the audience, "Vulgar" is just an exercise in skill and style in the final analysis.
In these details that do not affect the overall situation, Simon naturally sets it to his liking. After all, if the director has no feelings for the characters in his shots, it is destined to be difficult to pour too much emotion into a movie.
"Tony, her hair is still a little long, I want her to dance with the ends of her hair flowing freely, so it must not touch her shoulders," Simon looked at it for a while, and gave a few words to the stylist standing behind Nicole, and when the other person nodded, he took a step back and said to the woman, "Take off your shoes, I'll take a look." ”
In just a few days, I changed jobs, auditioned, and signed a contract...... Unknowingly, she has become the heroine of one of Hollywood's most watched new films, and Nicole Kidman still feels a little incredible at this time.
Hearing the command of the young man in front of her, Nicole Kidman did not hesitate, obediently took off the high heels on her feet and stepped on the slightly cool floor.
Simon looked down a few times and nodded, "It's beautiful." ”
Although he doesn't have Quentin's obvious foot fetish, Simon also thinks that a woman with beautiful feet is sexy.
Although Nicole Kidman felt a little strange in her heart, when she heard Simon's compliment, she still politely said, "Thank you, Mr. Westeros." ”
With that, Simon looked at Nicole's chest again, and was about to say something when the phone on his desk rang. Walking over to pick up the microphone, Simon leaned back on his desk and turned around, gesturing to Nicole as he answered the words on the other side.
Nicole Kidman found that she easily understood the meaning of Simon's gesture, but seeing that he looked like he took it for granted, she had the idea of making a toothy expression at the man.
Of course, she only dared to think about it, but she still raised her hand to unbutton her shirt.
Simon listened to Charles Payton, his accountant on the other side of the microphone, tell him that the two funds for the sale of the distribution rights to "Lola Run" had all arrived, and chatted with the other party with a smile, casually glancing at Nicole, who was unbuttoning his shirt opposite.
According to the plot of Vincent and Lance injecting Mia with adrenaline, the heroine must have breasts, but Nicole in her natural state definitely belongs to the type of princess of the peace.
At this time, seeing the good effect of Nicole squeezing the pad, Simon nodded with satisfaction, and casually motioned for the woman to get dressed.
Is it really that unattractive?
Ni could see the careless gesture of the young man in front of her, thinking a little depressedly, and buttoned it again.
Simon briefly chatted with the other side for a while, put down the microphone, and said to Nicole, "Very good, let's stop here today." You'll come back tomorrow, trim your hair a little more, and take a make-up photo. The schedule of the movie is very tight, and you will be notified of other things in a timely manner. ”
After hearing Simon's words, Nicole squinted at the stylist who was still beside her, hesitated slightly, and said, "Mr. Westeros, can I invite you to dinner?" ”
Simon smiled and looked Nicole up and down a few times, and said, "Just call me Simon." Dinner is forgotten, it's been messy lately. ”
The news about Simon and Sandra's romance has been going on for a whole week, and recently the paparazzi are still trying to take photos of the two on a date. Simon didn't want any more messy news.
Nicole Kidman was sent away, and it was nearly five o'clock in the afternoon.
Simon didn't rush off work, returned to his desk and reworked the preparation progress of Daenerys Pictures' three films.
"The Grim Reaper", "Vulgar" and "When Harry Met Sally", the filming dates are set for May, July and September respectively, and the filming cycle is basically about two months.
All aspects of "The Grim Reaper is Coming" have been finalized, just waiting for filming to start next month, and the schedule is also set for October 23 in the second half of the year.
After Craft Pictures confirmed its participation, with the arrival of funds, this week, several main creators of "When Harry Met Sally" also signed formal contracts. The next four months of preparation are definitely more than enough.
As for "Vulgar".
The circle of black actors is not too big after all, and after the major agencies sent a bunch of materials again, Simon successfully found Samuel L. Jackson.
Samuel L. Jackson was born in 1948 and is 39 years old this year.
After graduating with a degree in theater arts in the early '70s, Samuel L. Jackson spent ten years acting on Broadway in New York, and only in the '80s did he start playing small roles in Hollywood, but he remained obscure.
The invitation to play the role of "Vulgar" was completely a big pie falling from the sky for Samuel L. Jackson, and the other party agreed without the slightest hesitation and officially signed the contract yesterday.
After Samuel L. Jackson, the next supporting roles are very good, but Simon still hasn't found a suitable candidate for the role of the female taxi driver.
I don't know if I have a tendency to accent control, Simon found that of all the female characters in "Vulgar", he was most impressed by the female taxi driver. Therefore, he is also very careful in the selection of this role.
After all the recommended candidates were rejected by Simon last week, the agency really sent a list of European actresses. Simon also had an official audition on Tuesday.
As a result, he realized that he had made a mistake.
In addition to his appearance and temperament, Simon wanted to get an accented actor whose English was not very standard, and then, all the actresses who participated in the audition had a variety of obvious accents, and Simon couldn't tell who was real and who was pretending.
In addition, Simon always felt that the actors who participated in the audition seemed to be a little worse, so he simply rejected this batch of lists.
Now, Simon is no longer looking forward to finding a female taxi driver with a natural accent, he only expects an actress who can completely match his requirements in terms of appearance and temperament, and as for the accent, it can naturally be adjusted during the filming process.
