Chapter XVII
"Forty-seventh, seventh. www.biquge.infoAction!"
Amy stood up lightly, paused, then turned her body, stretched her feet out of the bed, followed her body, and stood beside the bed in a distracted manner.
After standing facing the corner of the bed for a while, Amy turned around again and walked to the open door, as if she had been punished, and after standing for a while, she suddenly began to bang her head against the wooden door, "Bang Bang Bang!!" The sound was not loud, but it was not small, but "Mika" never woke up.
After a while, Amy stopped and went downstairs.
Moments after she left, the door that had stopped automatically began to slam, and of course, it was actually Sid pulling the door with a clear fishing line in the dark.
Very good performance. Amy, you're great! Jeremy, you're so cool!" The nightly scene was finally filmed, and Sid laughed and applauded. Although it was only a small crew of a few people, Sid still took the initiative to lead the atmosphere and encourage everyone to work enthusiastically.
"We're ready for the next scene, everyone, come on!" Sid said enthusiastically.
Amy Adams and Jeremy laughed and got out of bed to help set up the next scene.
Filming was carried out in such repeated polishing, not only for the actors, but also for Sid. Although he had thought it through beforehand, Sid also repeatedly compared the original film with several excellent horror films to design the scenes and shots.
But after all, it was the first time for him to shoot a movie as a director, and he was also immature and inexperienced, but fortunately, everyone made suggestions together, so he worked together and stumbled forward with anticipation.
Although this sometimes takes more time, it also inspires Sid to be more inspired, and a lot of scenes are temporarily added and changed on the scene.
For example, in this possessed scene, the original film just got the heroine directly up and stood on the edge of the bed, and Sid was inspired to temporarily add the plot of making her sleepwalk and crash into the door automatically, making this scene even more weird and terrifying.
――――――――――――――――――――
"Hey, take a break, Sid. Amy Adams pulled two bottles of juice out of the fridge and handed one to Sid, who was watching the footage in front of his computer.
"Oh, thanks. Sid smiled and took the juice, "Where's Jeremy?"
"He went out to buy dinner. Amy Adams.
"Oh, let's take a break. Sid smiled and stood up, rubbing his aching neck.
"Come on, I'll give you a massage. Amy Adams said with a smile.
"Would you still do this?" asked Sid, surprised.
"Eh, it's all forced by life. Amy Adams said with a grin.
"You ...... Oh...... Comfortable......" Sid's words were interrupted by Amy Adams's profound, precise massage, Sid was either busy filming or burying his head in front of a computer screen, and his sixteen-year-old body was tired to death.
"Hee-hee, how's it going?" said Amy Adams.
Sid smiled and said, "Not bad, Amy, it seems that even if you are not an actor, you can be a top masseuse." ”
"Ha, what nonsense are you talking about, who would want to be a masseur if you can be an actor. Amy Adams said with a laugh and an angry face.
"Ahh
"Come over and help get dinner...... Uh......" Jeremy, who was carrying a large bag, opened the door and came in, stunned to see Sid, who was being "pinched" by Amy Adams.
――――――――――――――――――――
"I said you two are really idle, next time you can also come together to help carry things. Jeremy said with a black line on his face.
"Oh, my little body has a sore back and legs, where can I lift heavy things. Sid said, pretending to hammer his neck.
"Ahh
For a long time, Jeremy only held back one sentence: "You two scoundrels!"
"Hey, Jeremy, you're a good guy and can't play with us. Sid said with a grin and patted him on the shoulder.
"Alright, let's get moving, I'm dying of hunger. As soon as the three of them opened the Thai food for dinner, the aroma immediately hit their noses.
"Wow, it's so fragrant, it seems that Sid is not wrong to recommend it. Amy Adams rubbed her hands.
"Of course, who am I? Sid said with a grin.
At this point in time in 1997, Chinese food in the United States was not as original as it was later, and most of it was sweet-based dishes such as SH cuisine and JS cuisine. In addition, after being transformed by the Americans, there were strange Chinese dishes such as sweet and sour pork ribs wrapped in syrup, and Sid was very appetizing. even caused him to lose several pounds in the initial period of time.
Later, Sid finally discovered that Thai food, which had just become popular in the United States, had not yet been "poisoned" by the Yankees. And the spicy Thai food also makes Sid, who is accustomed to Sichuan food, feast.
"Uh, this is a god horse?" Amy Adams asked, pulling out two wooden sticks, curiously, "where are the spoons and forks?"
"Poof. Looking at Amy Adams and Jeremy clumsily holding chopsticks, Sid couldn't help but laugh.
I almost forgot, it's not like later, after a large number of Chinese immigrated to the United States, they brought the old beauties and used chopsticks to death. In the current United States, most people have never seen chopsticks such a "wonderful" tableware.
"This is cutlery. Sid smiled and instructed the two of them to learn to use chopsticks, and finally let them hold them correctly. But they can't even take it.
"Sid, you're not kidding us, are you? Jeremy had chopsticks in his right hand, but he couldn't put them together, "It's just two sticks!"
As for Amy Adams, it was even more funny, holding a chopstick in one hand, and picking up a piece of chicken with both hands, and finally when it was about to be caught in the bowl, it fell on the table with a "pop".
"Hahaha!" Sid laughed and rolled on the ground.
"Sid, you're really playing tricks on us!" the two shouted angrily in unison.
"Whoever said that, it's clear that you're too stupid. Sid smiled evilly and picked up a pair of chopsticks, skilfully picked up a piece of chicken and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Well~~~~, it's delicious. Sid's expression was sloppy, and the two of them were itching with anger.
"Liar!" the two watched in amazement as Sid Zhen held two wooden sticks, playing with great dexterity.
Amy Adams tried a few more times before throwing her chopsticks on the table in anger.
Sid clutched his stomach and smiled, "Alright, you guys go to the kitchen and get a fork and spoon." ”
――――――――――――――――――――
After solving the dinner problem, the three of them took out cold drinks and beer, sat around the TV, rested and relaxed, chatted and watched the program on the TV.
At this moment, a piece of news suddenly popped up, "Hello, everyone. It's time for our daily 'Titanic observation' again. ”
The female anchor on the TV said with a professional smile: "As we all know, the troublesome "Titanic" has made news again - the film, which was originally scheduled to be released in July, jumped tickets again and was frozen until December this year. ”
"If only it could still be released. The male anchor on the side said mockingly with a funny smile.
The female anchor on the side said with a professional smile: "In order to let the audience understand what is 'not understood', let's take three minutes to review the big and small turmoil of "Titanic" since its production. ”
"Haha, is there anyone on Earth who doesn't understand?" the male anchor continued to laugh funny.
The program on TV suddenly reminded Sid that compared to the king of the century "Titanic" after its release, it can be said that now in the second half of 1997, it can be said that everyone is shouting and beating.
All the media are bombarding this sky-high film with the most expensive price in history.
"As everyone knows, since the production of "Titanic" began three years ago, it has been in turmoil. With a production cost of more than $150 million and a three-year production cycle, its cast has changed batch after batch. But its cost continued to rise, and in order to meet the demands of director James Cameron, the film produced huge one-to-one ship models and countless expensive makeshift equipment. ”
At the same time, the three-year filming time made a large number of well-known actors daunting, and in the end, Cameron could only choose the unknown Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet as the heroes and heroines. This makes the film have no box office appeal. Even so, under Cameron's harsh and almost brutal demands, the actors had to shoot for hours a day in an icy sink. ”
"This caused a lot of people to get colds, flu and kidney infections, and even the heroine, Kate Winslet, almost drowned. Many actors were forced out of the crew by Cameron's relentless demands, and three stuntmen suffered fractures. ”
And in the first half of this year, "Titanic" finally ran out of funds, and Twentieth Century Fox was forced to pull Paramount to back it, which raised the final $50 million production fee. This also caused the cost of the film to soar to $200 million. And this does not include the 40 million promotional expenses offered by Twentieth Century Fox, which leads to the fact that the film must have at least $500 million at the box office to ensure that it does not lose money. ”
This makes this film extremely gloomy future, and I believe everyone still remembers that the failure of "Cut Throat Island" and "Future Water World" is just around the corner. ”
"Oh, "Titanic" is definitely more bullish than "Cut Throat Island" and "Future Water World", and the failure will definitely be an epic. The male anchor reappeared with a strange smile.
Standing in the eyes of "people who have come over", looking at the news of the bombardment of "Titanic" on this side, Sid only felt a sense of ridiculousness. Every seemingly reasonable reason said by these media will eventually be slapped in the face by the facts.
