As time passed, Jude's role in "The Talented Ripley" gradually came to an end. Director Anthony waited almost two weeks for Ripley and Dickey to fully mingle before arranging the bathroom scene at the delicate turning point in their relationship at the end.

There is also a bar scene after the bathroom scene, and Anthony expects to have to shoot all the scenes with Dickey "on land" in two days at most, and then spend two days, no more than three days, filming the scenes where Dickey asks his friend Freddie out to sea and Ripley mistakenly kills Dickey on a boat.

Tomorrow, Freddie Myers' actor Philip Seymour Hoffman will join the crew to complete Dickey's final scene with the others, which means that within five days, Jude will leave the crew and return to the United States.

So recently, Jude always wanted to find a place to get together with everyone, but unfortunately Anthony would not give him this time and opportunity, he made it clear that he would resolutely put an end to any fugue during the filming, they wanted to get together, yes, it must be after the film is finished, at that time even if they want to travel around the world, he will not stop them, but only now, no.

The director, who is usually very kind and very talkative, will be extremely resolute when it comes to filming issues, so Jude's plan has to be abandoned.

In the film, Dickey and Ripley's bathroom scene is at night, but the real shooting will not be in line with this time, this scene was placed early in the morning, the crew installed a black light barrier outside the bathroom window, the effect of the light barrier is very good, and then close the wooden window, the effect in the bathroom is similar to that at night.

Jude walked into the bathtub naked, and many female staff came to watch, and he was stared at by this group of people so naked/naked, he laughed and scolded a little embarrassed, if they were not willing to turn around collectively, he would not take off his bathrobe, and Theorod, who was standing against the wall with his chest on his arms, gloated:

"Jude, think about those mannequins, you have to dedicate your life to art. ”

His words were echoed by all the women.

"If you want to dedicate yourself, why don't you take it off!" Jude clenched his collar exaggeratedly as he stared at him with such a smile, like a little girl who had almost been violated by a pervert.

"If Tony says Ripley should strip naked and take a shower with Dickie, then I'll do it now. Theorod shrugged innocently.

Of course, in the end, Jude took off - at the urging of the director - and silently got into the bathtub full of warm water with his back to the group of "perverts". In order to create the atmosphere of the night, the bathroom was very dimly lit, and there was also a bath gel in the water, so Jude could not see the area below his waist at all.

Theorod also sat down by the bathtub at Anthony's behest, and between the two was a chess board that had been placed.

The scene was crowded with a large number of onlookers, mostly women, but perhaps because the bathrooms were already cramped and even more crowded when they were full—although a wall had been torn down to accommodate more people.

In this scene, Ripley already knows how he feels for Dickie, and he also knows that Dickey actually has feelings for him, this is the first time he has the courage to pursue what he loves, but he doesn't dare to be blatant yet, so he can only hint silently, with anticipation and extravagance.

I think it was because of this scene that he and Nattle ......

Well, there's no Natle here, there's just Dickey.

Theolod sorted out his mood, Ripley's to be precise, and nodded at Anthony.

As soon as the shooting began, Ripley lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the chessboard, as if all his attention was attracted by the chess game. But as soon as the camera zooms in, you will find that his eyes will

As Dickey said, Ripley has a very good look. When he took off his glasses, he was like a different person, and even Dickey complimented him on his good looks.

At this moment, these eyes hidden behind the glasses seem to be able to speak, slowly and affectionately confiding in the master's state of mind at the moment.

But Ripley, or Theolod, was so strong that from Dickey's angle, he couldn't spot Ripley's abnormality at all.

Theolod didn't say the lines from the script, which Jude expected, and everyone who played with him these days was used to his free play, and he was ready for all kinds of responses.

Ripley uses small talk to hide his inner nervousness and anticipation, Anthony finds this in the camera, but Ripley can't completely hide his heart, he believes that as long as others who watch the film watch this paragraph, they can find his faint love for Dickey, but I don't know if Dickey is too rough or doesn't care at all, on the surface he doesn't have any expression and reaction at all.

In this sense, Anthony thinks Jude has handled it particularly well at this time, and he plays Dickey's ego and amorousness. But when he thinks Jude is completely unaffected by Theorod's acting skills, he unexpectedly discovers that the conversation between the two seems to be quietly being taken in a specific direction - the direction of the tattoo.

Theorod's performance is very infectious, it is well known. Only this time, this contagion has been changed to a more ...... Subtly and silently.

I was taken away no matter how much I paid attention to...... Anthony was a little curious about whether Pacino and Theolod had been dragged away by the domineering when they played against each other before. He thought about the acting skills of these two people, and he suddenly envied the director Taylor Heckford who could have these two actors.

However, this time, why did Theorod want to mention the tattoo again? Previously, Anthony had planned to let Ripley confide in Dickey about his tattoo at this time, but Theorod told Maggie about it at the beginning, and he also knew that Ripley had only lied to Maggie at that time.

But what about this time?

“…… So, when are you going to sue me for that? Dickey said this with a natural displeasure, like a child who has been treated unfairly, and some childishly asks to be taken more seriously.

"What's that?" said Ripley's voice, with nothing unusual in it.

"The tattoo on your arm, I'm curious about the story behind it, you have to know that I don't see many people with an arm tattoo like you. Maggie said let me ask you myself, and she thought I would be moved to tears if I knew. ”

“…… You want to know?" Ripley looked up, at first he didn't dare to look at Dickie, but when he realized that Dicki was not paying attention to himself, he gently lowered his eyes on Dickie's face, and the delicate and painful complex emotions were like an impenetrable fog in the dark green pupils.

Dickey just snorted softly. He frowned and looked at the chessboard, not knowing if his voice was a reply to Ripley, or because of the complexity of the game, the only thing that was certain was his absent-mindedness.

Ripley knew the real answer at this moment, and he knew that Dickey didn't care about anything he said afterwards. Eventually, he lowered his eyes, and the emotion that was about to explode gradually sank into his eyes, and his voice was so soft that he couldn't hear anything unusual: "In order to protect my fiancée, I got into a fight with a few thugs, and I got a scar on my hand, so I got a tattoo." ”

"Oh, that sounds like a story that would bring Maggie to tears. Dickey said, smiling out of the blue, as he found his next step.

See, he really didn't care.

"That's right, every woman wants her lover to stand up for herself, and they love romantic chivalric tales. Ripley followed Dickey's words, and he lied again, but he apparently told Dickey more than he had told Maggie.

But Dickey didn't care.

After that, the dialogue between the two gradually returned to the script. Jude, who had been able to cope with it before, suddenly got stuck in the eyes of Theorod - Ripley had not shown his heart in front of Dickey before, but when he looked into his eyes with those eyes with deep, gentle, hot, begging, sad, fragile and complex feelings, for a moment, Jude thought that he had seen the whole bright starry sky, the starry sky that he needed to hold up and care for carefully.

He found himself unable to refuse the owner of these eyes, unable to refuse his love. The words of refusal are blocked in the throat and cannot be spoken.

Jude shuddered at the thought in his heart, and he quickly repeated his wife's name in his heart, recalling her face over and over again, in order to replace the eyes that touched him so much.

This guy usually looks amiable, but once the power is discharged...... Terrible, the charm of this temptation is simply accessible to both men and women.

Obviously, this section has been CUT countless times, and the water in the bathtub has completely turned into cold water, but fortunately, it is still the end of summer, and the weather is not cold. Anthony also seemed to understand Jude's distress, he encouraged Jude and pointed to the screen and said: "I understand you, Jude, no one can refuse these eyes, otherwise, let's not have lines, you just stare at Ripley, staring at him until his heart is weak and it is best to take the initiative to retreat......"

As he spoke, he looked at Theorod, who looked apologetic, and raised his face in feigned anger, and the old hen took Jude behind him like a chick, and said, "Impossible, Ripley, it is impossible for you and Dickie." Don't think anything else about him, stop there, and when you smash his head, your Peter is still waiting for you. I tell you secretly that Peter is a thousand times more gentle and considerate than this one!"

Theorod: "......"

Jude: "......"

The rivalry scene of only two people was filmed for nearly a morning and half an afternoon, while the bar group scene that required a group of extras was much easier to shoot than the bathroom scene. The lively atmosphere of the jazz bar quickly put the two of them into a state of relaxation after a tired morning, and Jude's previous saxophone skills also came in handy.

In a short chorus between Dickey and Ripley, Jude also noticed that Theorod had a good singing voice, and jokingly said that he would have no regrets if he could hear Theorod sing a full song before leaving.

Around 7 p.m., most of the bar scenes were filmed, and there were only a few shots left to be retaken. Anthony finally gave everyone an hour off and had takeout delivered.

The crew sat together in twos and threes, Theolod and Jude sat on the steps next to the stage, and saw a photographer's assistant holding a DV and turning it to record the shooting log, Jude looked at the camera like a funny, picked up a piece of chicken breast for Theorod, and sent it into Theorod's mouth, Theorod also opened his mouth cooperatively, and finally gave Jude a flying kiss.

The interaction between the two made the assistant almost laugh unsteadily, he told him to enjoy the time between the two and took the DV to Anthony's side.

Theolod finished his dinner, looked at Jude, then at the piano behind him, and suddenly stood up.

Jude gave him a strange look, "Would you like to get a dinner?"

"Didn't you say 'no regrets in this life'?"

“…… What?" Jude didn't react for a moment.

"You're leaving the crew soon, and the next time we meet is probably next year's publicity period. ”

Only then did Jude understand what Theorod meant—he was going to sing him a song! He quickly put aside the unfinished lunch box and looked at Theorod with sparkling eyes.

Theolod ignored him, he just walked to the piano and sat down, his fingers skillfully tried the note, and then, the staccato notes gradually became a series of beautiful and melodious music, quiet, like the quiet and deep sea in the moonlight, with a hint of sinking, with a hint of sadness, with a hint of tenderness.

This jazz-style prelude was so familiar to Jude that he realized it was Ripley's "MyFunnyValentine" in the script, a lyrical jazz classic of the fifties, sung by Chet Baker, whom Jude had visited a few times before filming. Obviously, the same is true of Theorod, who is not familiar with music, but he can at least hear from this prelude that Theorod has put a lot more effort into the preparation of the music than he does.

Incredibly, more than two months ago, he just finished from "Fight Club".

"MyFunnyValentine" begins without piano accompaniment, but Theolod adds a solo piano to make the song more lyrical, and then he slowly opens his mouth. Compared with the original singing Chet who slowly tells a qiē and takes people into the decadent and confused heart, Theolod's voice is less sad and more soft.

The moment the piano sounded, Anthony was slightly stunned, he immediately put down the dinner in his hand, threw himself at the camera, and quietly told the people around him to be quiet, and the gaffers were in place. Fortunately, the camera was on standby, and he hurriedly prepared a qiē before Theolod could speak.

The unique baritone is as long and delicate as a violin, and the light transposition and gentle affection are intertwined to weave into a misty dream. There was only a ray of light left on the stage, which was softly focused on him, making him feel a little more musical talent while still wearing Ripley's makeup. It wasn't until the intoxicating trills disappeared into the air that all the lights on the stage came on.

The applause and the sudden onset of lights made Theolod realize that he was surrounded by a crowd at some point, and he looked at Anthony's camera and reacted immediately.

"You filmed it?"

"That's right, except for the piano solo at the beginning, the rest don't play. ”

“…… But you're definitely going to have to do it again. ”

"You're got it right again, my Theo, and I didn't realize until you were halfway through the song, 'Hey, this is Theorod's taste, not Ripley'. So, my Ripley, you'll have to sing it again later, a little less gentle, a little more affectionate. You have to remember that you actually confessed to Dickey in song. Anthony added, adding, "But I could put this paragraph in tidbits." Is the shooting log recorded?"

"Of course, complete, director. The assistant with the DV replied.

"Hey, this is a gift for me. Jude was a little upset, "You'll have to copy the footage to me." ”

"Yes, yes, you can't do without it. Anthony's answer almost made Theolod think that this was some kind of shady spoil-sharing activity.

He had no right to speak, and finally reluctantly said: "Can I just sing a small half later?"

"No, you can't. Anthony didn't think about refusing directly, then he clapped his hands and said to the others, "Okay, the break ends early, let's start shooting the next one! ”

Mr. Bennett, who was holding a boxed lunch and witnessing a qiē, looked at Theorod sitting in front of the piano, and his mood at the moment was a little complicated. He silently opened the small notebook, turned the dense page, and wrote down a new one on the new page: "Sang a song "MyFunnyValentine" to Jude Law (you must remember that there is absolutely no 'affectionate' in this song, such as 'affectionate', 'love', 'love'!)"

He flipped through the first few pages, a dense record of the events of the day, and specifically every detail and conversation that had taken place in the morning bathroom scene—which the eldest of the family had repeatedly told him to memorize—Bennett glanced at it cursory, and mentally organized his words.

However, he believes that even a literary giant like Shakespeare or any other language master will not be able to save him from his wrath when he reports to his boss......

Thinking of this, Bennett was a little loveless.
