Chapter 109: Welfare
Eric listened to her words, and did not say anything, but lowered his head and made a note on the text, which made Gwyneth a little apprehensive, and she felt that her answer should be very appropriate. But the person opposite didn't give her time to think, and then asked a few more questions before the performance began.
The staff brought a bench that could seat two people, and an assistant explained: "Miss Paltrow, the scene you are going to perform is like this: on the bus, a strange man suddenly sits next to you, and the other party is very handsome, so that a woman will feel excited when he looks at it." But you saw a pistol in the other party's open collar, and the man hijacked you and asked you to pretend to be a couple with him to fool the police into questioning, and you didn't dare to resist, so you had to let it go. Miss Paltrow, you don't have lines, you can only rely on expressions and body language to express your feelings, and you have a minute to prepare. ”
There is not a single line, this ...... It's too hard, Gwyneth had the thought in her mind. However, she knew she had no choice but to quickly adjust her mindset and prepare for the performance.
A minute later, Gwyneth sat down on the bench and said she was ready, and the assistant reminded her that 'the music stops, the show is over,' and set the clapperboard.
At the same time, another staff member pressed the player, and a light piano music sounded.
The song is the pure music that repeatedly appeared when the bus met in the original version, the name is called, this soundtrack in the previous life failed to produce an original soundtrack record because it was suspected of plagiarizing a pure music work by Greek musician Vangelis in 1995, and Eric copied this piece of music at this time, and it will definitely not involve copyright issues anymore, and he can publish the soundtrack with peace of mind in the future.
Gwyneth sat there quietly, and a moment later a staff member sat down beside her. Gwyneth frowned slightly, turned her head to look at the man next to her, and her eyes fell on the open collar of the other party, where a gun was pinned, Gwyneth immediately showed a look of fear on her face, and her body appeared to obviously dodge backwards.
Eric behind the audition table frowned slightly, Gwyneth's expression was too exaggerated, but he didn't bother.
The two people who performed continued, and the staff of the cameo extras stretched out their arms around Gwyneth's shoulders as the music progressed, saying, "Don't make a sound, it's fine." ”
Gwyneth's body stiffened, her eyes staring straight ahead, and from Eric's vision, the girl's hand on her knee was trembling slightly. The staff took off their glasses and gave Gwynnie ribbons, but the girl still didn't respond, like a puppet.
There was supposed to be an action of pulling out headphones, but because it was an impromptu performance, it was omitted.
"Pull in," the staff member said again, and Gwyneth leaned aggrievedly against the man's shoulder.
After a few moments, Eric made a gesture, and immediately someone stopped the music.
Gwyneth knew that the performance was over, so she quickly straightened up, smiled and took off her sunglasses and returned them to the other party.
"Miss Paltrow, thank you very much for the audition, you can leave now, we will do our best to inform you of the results. ”
"Ah, that's it...... Is it over?" asked Gwyneth.
Eric nodded and made a gesture of please, and Gwyneth had no choice but to pick up her handbag and walk out of the audition room, closing the door of the audition room, and the girl immediately restrained her facial expression and walked indifferently through the crowd waiting for the audition.
In the audition room, several people quickly discussed.
Alan Fiessman, who was sitting next to Eric, asked, "Eric, what do you think?"
Eric drew a cross behind Gwyneth's name, he didn't have feelings for Gwyneth's type of beauty, not to mention that the other party's acting skills were really not very good, and casually explained: "No, the love is single, the expression is superficial, and it is very contrived." Curt, get ready to shout the next one. ”
Nick Frank next to him stretched out his hand to stop Curt who was about to call someone and said, "Eric, will you replace me next?"
"Hey, I'm only three of you, okay? The man who had just made a cameo appearance as an extra immediately retorted.
Nikkor showed a distressed expression and said: "Royce, I think you should stop acting, you look like this, just now the three girls were all affected by you and didn't play well at all." It's nothing short of a murder of someone else's career. ”
"If Audrey Herben auditioned, she would have performed even if there was a gorilla sitting next to her. ”
"Royce, you're finally admitting that you're not as good as a long-connected gorilla. ”
Royce, who did look a little rough, but was not ugly at all, said madly: "Nikle, you are so sarcastic about me again, be careful that I tell you about the scandal you had at Brady's Bar that night." ”
"You dare!"
Eric patted the table in frustration to stop the two from arguing, Nickel is Eric's photographer, Royce is now an assistant director, and the two originally belonged to Jeffrey's wife's team and were very good friends. This kind of small quarrel happens every three days, so Eric is not worried that the two will really clash. But it's too disturbing to continue to be so noisy.
The quarrel started because of this audition, and today the auditions were all beautiful women, and Eric did not look for extras, but all the men present came to play the role of Robber Andy. It can be regarded as a little benefit for the crew who have been busy with themselves for so many days of boring audition work.
Unexpectedly, he underestimated the restlessness value of this group of animal hormones, at the beginning of the audition, there was a particularly sexy Latin girl, with a full body and a convex and backward body, but when he wanted to make a cameo, it was originally Eric's assistant Alan Fiessman's turn, but Nickel jumped up directly, because there were outsiders present, Alan could only stare dryly.
"Don't argue, my head is big, Royce continues, the rules remain the same. If you quarrel again, I'll find extras, and no one will play them. ”
Eric was still prestigious, or perhaps the last threat worked, and Nickel and Royce immediately shut their mouths and just gave each other the middle finger. After getting Eric's cue, Curt went out and called out for the next auditioner.
……
It wasn't until she walked out of Firefly's office building that Gwyneth suddenly reacted.
"Ah, I should have thought of that!" Gwyneth waved her hands frantically and kicked the trash can next to her with a muffled thud.
She finally reacted, Eric asked the reason for the question about love at first sight, combined with the performance just now, it was obviously the scene of love at first sight after two strangers met.
It's so stupid that I don't believe in love at first sight. Moreover, when she was performing just now, she only cared about her fear of love, and she didn't show any love at first sight.
By the way, the staff seems to have reminded themselves that strange men are very handsome, and a woman will feel excited at a glance.
It's all to blame for the staff member who made a cameo extra, obviously looking ugly, and he still has to play some handsome guy. If Eric Williams sat next to me, I would definitely feel excited.
Gwyneth gritted her teeth and thought, and the ghost accidentally transferred her anger of disappointment to Drew, blaming that little Bichi, who lived in Eric Williams's house, must have seen the script, and she had specifically asked her about the content of the script, and if that little Bichi could reveal something, she would not be unprepared. Gwyneth was furious, and happened to pass by a phone booth.
By the way, maybe you can contact Drew Barrymore and see if he can help him get another audition, next time...... I will definitely be well prepared next time, and it will not be as bad as this time.
Gwyneth didn't think about the current time at all, Drew should be in class under normal circumstances, looked for the address book in his bag, stuffed a coin into the coin phone, and dialed Drew's dormitory number.
There were a few beeps, and the phone was connected.
"Hey......" A confused girl's voice sounded on the other side, and it seemed that she hadn't woken up yet.
Gwyneth changed her face and changed to an affectionate tone: "Hi Drew, it's me, Gwyneth...... Hehe, it's ten o'clock now, you're still sleeping, I really envy you...... Well, I went to that audition today, but I don't think I was really good at it, can you help me talk to Mr. Williams and give me another chance to audition...... Good...... Good...... I'm waiting for your good news, dinner together on the weekend, I know there's a great Italian restaurant on Sunset Boulevard...... That's good...... Okay, that's it, bye-bye. ”
Smiling until she heard the busy sound behind the hang-up on the other side, Gwyneth slapped the microphone back, with a faint contempt and jealousy in her tone: "Sleep in broad daylight, you must have gone out to fool around last night, I wish you one day be caught and raped by Eric Williams in bed and sold to an African mining kiln, see if you can keep that baby face that seduces men." ”
