After filming the scenes on the battlefield in Vietnam, the crew rested for two days and rushed to the next filming location.

The old actors leave, the new actors join, the crew is like this, like a highly complete assembly line, everyone has a corresponding position, after contributing their self-worth, they will rush to the next place to continue to contribute, until the last drop of value is squeezed out by this industrial system.

With the needs of filming, Audrey Hepburn, Katharine Hepburn, Marlon Brando and other national treasure actors entered the crew one after another, and followed the team to the filming location of Savannah City.

This time, the shooting was mainly focused on the urban area, so you didn't have to eat and sleep in the open like when filming the Vietnam battlefield, and you could eat, drink and drink in a big hotel in the city.

Although the working environment and living conditions are much better, John is a careful person, considering the age and physical factors of several old actors, he still asked people to drive his newly acquired RV to Savannah City, providing a comfortable rest place for these old actors on the set.

The day after the RV arrived, Nicolas Cage became the first visitor, and as soon as he got in the car, he looked east and west, and occasionally touched the leather interior of the car with his hands.

"Director Chris Deng! This RV looks great. ”

"It's okay!" John opened the wine cabinet in the living room and poured a bottle of Mouton for Nicolas Cage and himself.

But Nicolas Cage was obviously more interested in the RV than red wine, and after taking a sip of his glass, he looked at John and asked. "Can I take a tour?".

"Whatever. John shrugged, there was nothing private in the RV, not afraid of Nicolas Cage.

"Thank you!" Nicolas Cage excitedly put down his glass and looked around John's RV.

From the living room to the kitchen, from the study to the bedroom, Nicolas Cage has fully felt what the ultimate luxury is along the way, if the diamond-inlaid starry sky roof, all kinds of utensils made of precious metals are nothing, then the world treasure stamp hanging on the wall of the bathroom sink, and the famous Pollock painting hanging on the roof of the bedroom car, can make people look sideways.

Of course, while Nicolas Cage lamented the luxury of the RV, he also wondered why John hung Pollock's famous painting on the roof of the car above the bedroom bed.

"Shouldn't Pollock's paintings be carefully put in a vault and treasured?"

After thinking about it for a long time and not figuring it out, Nicolas Cage finally went to John for advice.

And John's answer was simple. "Before going to bed, I took one last look at the world, hoping to see something beautiful, so as not to be bad. ”

This answer made Nicolas Cage feel so compelled that when he returned home, he hung a painting on the top of his bed like John, except that he hung it with Henry Matisse.

Of course, John didn't care if Nicolas Cage would wake up from his dream every night, he cared about filming, and on the third day of arriving in Savannah, the crew gathered in the city's Zippewa Square to prepare for the first shot.

"The 238th scene of "Forrest Gump", the first shot, and the first article, began to ....... ”

On the platform of the bus stop in front of the square, Forrest Gump sat on a bench waiting for the bus, and a black female nurse came and sat next to him.

"Hi, my name is Forrester and Forrester Kim. Forrest Gump opened the box of chocolates on his lap and handed it to the black nurse. "Do you want chocolate?"

The black female nurse glanced at Forrest Gump, shook her head slightly, and then looked down at the magazine in her hand.

Forrest Gump didn't mind the attitude of the black female nurse, picked up a piece of chocolate and muttered to himself. "I can eat millions of chocolates, and my mom used to say: life is like a box of chocolates with different flavors, you never know what ...... will be next to you. ”

“NG……”

Just as Tom Hanks picked up the chocolate and put it in his mouth, reading the lines as he ate it, John interrupted his performance.

"Emmanuel!" John stood up from behind the monitor, and this time the reason for NG was not because of the actors, but because of the camera.

John walked over to the railcar and looked at Emmanuel in the camera. "The camera was moving slower, and the speed was faster, so that Tom Hanks could give him a 2-second close-up of his face, especially his eyes, when he had the last two lines left. "John needs to use Tom Hanks' eyes to turn the plot to Forrest Gump when he was a child.

"Okay, boss!" Emmanuel gestured with his hand to show that he understood.

After John saw that he understood, he arranged for a makeup artist to touch up Tom Hanks' makeup, and then returned to the monitor and waited for it to turn on.

The rest of the shoot went much better, and Emmanuel did as John asked, speeding up the camera and successfully giving Tom Hanks a two-second close-up with the last two lines remaining.

“CUT... This one is good, it's over. John stood up from behind the monitor with a megaphone and watched as the crew shouted loudly. "Change the scene, get ready for the next shot. ”

The first day of the scenes that the crew needs to shoot every day will be arranged, so everyone knows what to shoot next and how to prepare.

After seeing that the crew members were busy, John dropped the megaphone and walked towards the RV not far away.

When he got to the living room of the RV, he picked up an unopened bottle of mineral water, twisted it twice, took a sip of it, then wiped his mouth, and walked to Catherine He, who was putting on makeup. "Grandma Catherine, it's your role next. ”

"Okay!" said Katharine Hepburn, putting down the script in her hand and looking at John in the mirror. "Give me some time. ”

"No problem! Take your time, we're not in a hurry. John smiled.

Katharine Hepburn has very few scenes, only two lines, two shots, and can be filmed in one day, so John is not in a hurry.

It didn't take long for the crew to turn on the camera, and John sat behind the monitor and watched the footage coming from the camera.

Although Katharine Hepburn's passerby A only has two short lines, she perfectly interprets a kind and kind old man, and even Martin Scorsese, who is sitting next to John, can't help but nod his head. "is worthy of being the first lady in the film industry, even if she plays a passerby A who only has two lines, she can play it so well. ”

John smiled. "Of course, Grandma Catherine has been practicing for these two shots for a long time, and there are no less than seven surprised expressions alone. ”

"So talent is important, and later effort is even more important. "Martin Scorsese has seen many talented people in Hollywood, but very few have succeeded in the end, and only those who work hard can reach heights that others can't reach.

John agrees with his words, "Hurt Zhongyong" has existed since ancient times, and there is no shortage of geniuses in this world, but people who persevere and work hard.
