For his role, Matthew has made ample preparations in the past few months, and Ronald Spears is also a role carefully chosen by Helen Herman based on his own strengths and weaknesses.

This can appropriately cover up the flaws of Matthew's lack of acting skills.

Matthew stood on the side of the two main actors, Damian Lewis and Neil MacDonald, waiting for filming to begin.

He had been preparing for so long and was looking forward to the shoot.

"Band of Brothers, Episode 2, Scene 11, Act 5, Start Now!"

The moment the voice of the scene reporter sounded, Matthew immediately entered the state, and he had practiced this scene in front of the mirror no less than twenty times, and he was already familiar with it.

Unlike his self-rehearsal, there are more actors and cameras around him, but he is not a newcomer and will not make such a low-level mistake as looking at the camera footage.

"Lieutenant Spears!" Damian-Lewis asked, looking at Matthew, "how are you doing over there?"

Matthew shook his head slightly, "Not so good." ”

Damian-Lewis asked, "How many men did Company D have?"

Matthew's face showed helplessness, "There are not many people, about twenty ......"

"Stop!" director Richard Long Klein shouted to stop filming, "No!"

Hearing this, Matthew immediately got rid of his role and quickly recalled the performance he had just performed, trying to find out where he had made a mistake.

After all, the director shouted to stop while he was saying his lines.

Director Richard Long Klein stood up and waved his hand to the three actors in front of the camera, "It's none of your business, it's the set design that's wrong." ”

He came between Matthew and Damian Lewis, looked at Matthew first, then at Damian Lewis, frowned and thought.

Matthew subconsciously wanted to touch his face, but suddenly realized that there was camouflage on his face, so he had to touch his helmet.

"Redesign the scene!" Richard Longklein walked out between Matthew and Damian Lewis, "I'm going to make adjustments to the scene." ”

The original scene was that Ronald Spears, played by Matthew, stood here, said a few words to Damian Lewis and left, and then went to the German prisoners of war, which can be regarded as leading to this role.

Richard Long Klein obviously has his own ideas, and after a brief exchange with Tom Hanks, he also has Tom Hanks' support.

As for the opinions of the actors, none of the three people, including Damian Lewis, are well-known actors and are basically negligible.

In the vast majority of cases, the actors can't interject.

Soon, Richard Long Klein finished adjusting and came to the middle of the three actors.

He looked at Matthew first and said, "Don't stand here when filming starts." ”

Matthew thought he was going to delete Ronald Spears' scene here, and he was a little resistant, but he nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Richard Long Klein turned to Damian Lewis and Neil MacDonald, "You continue from the last scene about Lieutenant Meehan and the Supreme Commander of E Company. ”

Damian Lewis and Neil McDonald have no opinion.

"Matthew!" said Richard Longcrane, turning back and pointing at Damian Lewis and Neil MacDonald, "you come over from the battalion headquarters, and when the discussion between the two of them draws to a close, you come over with the same lines." ”

He personally demonstrated the position and said to Matthew, "When you leave, remember to ask them for cigarettes, and you will smoke the Germans in the next game." ”

"I see. Matthew said.

His scenes have not been cut, but have been added a little more than in the script.

"Good!" Richard Long Crane shouted back to director's position, "you guys rehearse once." ”

Matthew quickly familiarized himself with the new design with Damian Lewis and Neil MacDonald, and then the shoot restarted.

This time, Matthew stood outside the camera leaning towards the battalion headquarters and listened carefully to Damian Lewis' conversation with Neil MacDonald.

“…… If he's missing, Dick. Neil MacDonald said to Damian Lewis, "Aren't you the top officer of Company E?"

Hearing this, Matthew immediately walked over, and when he was about to get near the two, Damian Lewis turned his head and took the initiative to greet him, "Hi, Lieutenant Spears." ”

Matthew came up to him and shook hands with Damian Lewis, "Hi, Dick. ”

Damian Lewis asked, "How many men did Company D assemble?"

"Not too much. Matthew barely had any expression on his face, "About twenty people." ”

"You're the only officer?" asked Damien-Lewis again.

Matthew nodded slightly, "For now." He paused deliberately and said, "Still waiting for orders." ”

From the very beginning to the present, he has no superfluous movements and expressions, and he is as cold as a rock.

In the film and television works and related materials that Matthew has studied, Predators are basically like this.

He took the initiative to ask, "Do you have any cigarettes?"

Damian Lewis shook his head, Neil MacDonald took a pack of cigarettes out of his coat pocket and handed it over, Matthew didn't say a word, turned and walked away.

Director Richard Long Crane's voice came over at this point, "Okay!

The crew was about to move to the next set to shoot the scene of German prisoners of war, Matthew entered the actor's rest area and sat down, and immediately someone brought a thick blanket and a cup of hot coffee, although what he wanted most was a cup of hot tea, even if it was the most inferior flower tea, but as a role actor, he couldn't pay too much attention to this aspect.

Matthew put on a blanket and took a sip of hot coffee, feeling a little warmer.

Fast forward to the year 2000, and late January, although not as cold as December, was still windy.

These actors play the role of soldiers who landed in France in June, of course, they can't wear too thick clothes, and they are basically single clothes during filming.

Half a cup of coffee fell down, Matthew just put down the cup, and the makeup artist came over to touch up the makeup, fortunately, the face was full of oil paint and did not need to make too many adjustments, plus the weather was cold and it would not be stained by sweat, so it was completed soon.

"It's so cold!" Michael Fassbender rubbed his hands together and walked into the resting area, pulling over a chair and sitting next to Matthew, "The ghost weather in England is deadly. ”

Matthew looked at him and asked, "You're done." ”

"Not yet, but I won't need it yet. Michael Fassbender went to pick up a hot cup of coffee, "I'll come in and warm up." ”

He took a sip of his coffee and gave Matthew a thumbs up, "You just did a great job! ”

"Really?" asked Matthew.

Michael Fassbender nodded earnestly, "Of course it's true?" He made a nostril-facing look, "Do I need to please you?"

Matthew immediately shook his head, "No. ”

"I want to ask you......" Michael Fassbender had a look full of curiosity, "how long have you been preparing for this role?"

"I'll think about it...... "four or five months," Matthew calculated. ”

Michael Fassbender was a little surprised, "For such a small role, take a few months to prepare?" He gradually realized, "No wonder you performed best in training, and it was not bad when you first filmed." ”

It is common for actors to prepare for a lead role for a few months, and it is less common for a small role to prepare for four or five months.

"Matthew!"

An assistant director walked in at this time, "It's almost your role, go to the set and prepare." ”

"I'll go. ”

Matthew said hello, walked out of the actor's resting place, and walked into the muddy path, which was lined with fake trees erected by the crew, which looked like the real thing, and there was grass under the trees, all of which were fake.

For today's Hollywood films, doing these is just the bare bare essentials.

Don't talk about others, after Matthew watched too much, he was not surprised.

After the crew adjusted, filming began again, and Matthew put on his helmet and entered the filming location.

He has studied enough characters to know that he doesn't have to show too much during shooting, as long as he maintains the state of the previous shot.

Hearing director Richard Longklein shouting to start, Matthew scrambled a cigarette in his mouth and a Chicago typewriter in his right hand as he stepped on the muddy path towards the German prisoners.

Scott Gornrise, who was training with him, passed by him, and Matthew walked ahead as if he didn't see it.

He looked at the German prisoners and took out the box of cigarettes from his coat pocket, "Cigarettes?"

An extra playing a German soldier walked over, and Matthew handed him the whole box of cigarettes, "Here you go." ”

The extras gave smoke to all the German soldiers, and Matthew swept over the faces of the German soldiers, spitting out a smoke ring......

“Good！”

This one went by once, and director Richard Long Crane seemed very satisfied, "Matthew Horner, well done!"

Hearing the director's words, Matthew took off his steel helmet and showed a bright smile.

After a brief adjustment, the filming continued, this time with a close-up shot of Matthew shooting, and it took five shots before the director announced that it was complete.

Matthew takes off his helmet and jumps off the mound of dirt, ready to remove his makeup.

Today, all of his footage was filmed.

The crew did not give a clear answer to this scene about Ronald Spears shooting German prisoners of war, and adopted a vague performance method, just like a rumor among veterans.

In the filming of the second episode, there were not many scenes about Ronald Spears, and Matthew then filmed a scene with troops to support E Company, which completed all his scenes in this episode.

The crew filmed at Hatfield Airport for a month, and even Matthew was physically and mentally exhausted, and the crew also gave the actors who did not have a role to shoot in the subsequent scenes a two-day vacation.

Matthew originally wanted to use these two days to visit Britney, but after making a phone call, he had to change his plans, and Britney's world tour had already begun, and there was no time to see him.

However, he is not alone in the UK, and there are acquaintances in the crew who are messing around.
