For powerful actors, the filming efficiency is much higher than that of ordinary actors, such as Anne Hathaway, although she is young, her emotions and sense of substitution are captured very well when acting, so her performance in the last few sets of shots of this movie is perfect, and her emotions, expressions and even tears come without any delay at all.

In Li Mu's memory, in a documentary he once watched, it was mentioned that many more dedicated actresses, in order to be able to shed tears at any time during filming, will train alone for a long time and find a way to make themselves cry at any time, so that when filming any scene that requires crying, tears can open the valve at any time like a faucet, but for those actors who have little professionalism, when filming crying scenes, it is enough to bring a bottle of eye drops.

These sets of shots shot by Anne Hathaway are the last shots in the whole feature film, but after this set of shots is finished, the movie has not been completely completed, and there are still some scenes to be completed in the airport scenes, after all, the shooting sequence of the movie is completely different from the order of the final edit.

After these sets of shots, Anne Hathaway's eyes were still red and tears flowed.

Spielberg hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her and said, "Annie, don't cry, this scene is done great, until the start of filming, we have never completed so many shots at one time so smoothly, well done!"

Anne Hathaway carefully wiped her tears and said to Spielberg: "Director, your script is really unfair to the two of them, even if it is the Titanic, Rose also found a new lover, got married and had children after Jack's death, why did she have to die alone for so many years after the death of her lover when she got to the role in your script?"

Spielberg smiled slightly and said indifferently: "I think that people should remember history as much as they remember love, so you need the role you play to be an example and foil, since she is a role model, then she must invest more and sacrifice more than ordinary people." ”

After that, Spielberg said: "War must be cruel, but it is not absolutely cruel, and it is not absolutely perfect, so the theme of a responsible war movie must be heavy and heavy, and it is the indispensable soul of a qualified war film! A war movie that is excessively bloody, excessively relaxed, or even excessively satisfying is irresponsible to history." ”

"The number of casualties in World War II in China exceeded 30 million, and the wars that took place in this land, as well as the various stories that happened in the war, are difficult to have a happy ending, so we let Liu Ye, the role of a hot-blooded young man, die in the sky, because he is a soldier of this country, and in the face of national disasters, he is the group of people who put life and death out of the way, if he survives in the end, it is not enough to show the audience the great effort of this country in resisting aggression;"

"And the reason why we want to let the character of a peasant girl like Du Wei survive and reap the full love is because she represents the ordinary people of this country, after the war is over, she should enjoy the life that peace brings her, if she also dies in the war, or she fails to reap happiness in the end, it is not enough to show the audience justice, and the preciousness of peace;"

Therefore, from the perspective of these, the soldiers died on the battlefield in order to defend justice in a just war, and the people enjoyed a peaceful life under the sacrifice of these people, which is the final result of a war. ”

Anne Hathaway was silent for a long time, nodded slightly, and said in a low voice: "I see what you mean, thank you." ”

Spielberg patted her lightly on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Let's go and remove the makeup, we have to go back to the airport." ”

Anne Hathaway nodded, and returned to the tent in charge of makeup with Leonardo and Du Wei.

The modern film and television industry has been showing wars in human history in various ways, and the most popular theme is the Second World War, which has the greatest impact and damage to all mankind, but many war-themed film and television dramas have not grasped the focus of Spielberg's words.

Since it is a war, it is an incomparably heavy matter from any angle, whether it is for the righteous side, for the evil side, for the victors, or for the defeated.

Therefore, an excellent war movie, while reproducing some scenes of the war, must make future generations feel the heaviness of the war, so it is full of awe, vigilance and reflection on the war.

If a war movie is completely full of blood, and people are enthusiastic to watch, and they just want to charge into battle with a gun, then this is by no means an excellent war movie, or even a qualified war movie, because it is advocating war and packaging war with blood.

If a war movie is presented in a comedic and absurd way, and others who watch it erase their tears and lean forward and back together, then this is not a qualified war movie either, war is the killing of human beings against each other, no matter from any angle, this is not a thing that can make people laugh.

Therefore, Spielberg is reluctant to present a war movie with a perfect ending, a war with 30 million dead and wounded, if the five leading actors all survive and are happy, it seems that the war is like a family, if they are all dead, it will be extremely dark, if the world after sacrifice is still so desperate, then what is the meaning of sacrifice.

Thinking about it carefully, Li Mu feels that a big guy like Spielberg is really like a top chef, and he handles the heat very accurately.

For example, in "Saving Private Ryan", the Normandy landing at the beginning was extremely cruel, and then the special team led by Tom Hanks went deep into the battlefield in order to save Ryan, and finally paid a huge sacrifice, so much so that even the starring Tom Hanks sacrificed, just to get back the name of Private Ryan, is it heavy? Although it is heavy, it is still hope and warmth, especially when Ryan returned to the United States as the only surviving of the four sons in the family, people realized that this is Tom Hanks. The purpose of Hanks's sacrifice is to let Ryan go home, let him return to his parents, let him pass on his blood in peacetime, and let him bring his family to Tom Hanks's grave to mourn when he is old.

Another example is Schindler's List , Countless Jews were brutally and cold-blooded by the Germans, making this movie full of despair and darkness, like a long night that will never shine, but even so, there is still Schindler trying his best to save the Jews facing massacre, and finally succeeded in bringing some of them out of the devil of death, so when a large number of Jewish descendants go to Schindler's grave to mourn, people will understand the cruelty of war, and will also understand the meaning of saving others, and understand the importance of peace.

Looking back at the play "Flying Tigers", there are a total of five leading actors in the play, except for Chennault played by Tom Hanks, the remaining four are just two pairs of transnational lovers between China and the United States, American pilot and Chinese peasant girl, Chinese pilot and American female nurse.

One of the lovers has achieved a positive result, that is, the characters played by Leonardo and Du Wei, and the pair of lovers played by Liu Ye and Anne Hathaway are the two saddest characters in the whole film.

The character played by Liu Ye piloted a fighter plane to defend the airspace of the motherland in his youth, and finally died heroically, and the character played by Anne Hathaway died lonely with that affection and Liu Ye's only photo, the two of them are to let the audience understand the cruelty of war, as well as the sacrifices and costs that need to be paid for war.

When Li Mu calmed down and thought about what Spielberg said, Mr. Han Zili's son came to Li Mu and said a little nervously: "Mr. Li, I am Han Zili's son, and several old people have a request, and they are embarrassed to come and tell you in person, so they want me to convey it to you......"

Li Mu hurriedly said: "You said that we will try our best to achieve what can be realized, and we will never let the old gentlemen down." ”

Han Zili's son, who is over fifty years old, spoke: " That's the case, didn't our crew restore a wartime airport of the year, when it first started and was just built, my father and Uncle Sun both visited in the past, but at that time the planes had not yet arrived, and then I heard that the crew had shipped a few old planes from the United States, my father They were still speculating whether it was P-40C, just yesterday your Weibo reported on TV, my father and they all saw the shark-painted P-40C behind you when you took pictures, that excitement, I look forward to being able to take a look, Touch it, because they were in the Flying Tigers back then, and they were driving this model, so I want me to ask you, is it convenient, will it disturb the normal filming of the crew......"

Several old people are indeed haunted by the car of the year, the old fighter jets with cartoon sharks, carrying their memories, their blood, their youth, all their feelings of family and country, and also carrying the greatest and brightest moments of their lives, they dream of being able to touch the skin with rivets, the wide and heavy propellers, and the scarlet blood mouth of the big shark.

As soon as Li Mu heard this, he said without hesitation: "This is no problem, I will arrange it immediately, and let the Toyota Coaster directly bring a few old gentlemen with you later, and the other few old Flying Tigers from the United States and their families will also be invited." ”

Han Zili's son immediately nodded excitedly and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Li, I'll go and tell them!"
