64. Chapter 64
The directors and screenwriters of "The Nanny Diary" are Sary Spinner Berman and Robert Pacini.
Elisa. Selena's ability to star in this movie was a surprise for them, like a big cake falling on their heads at once.
It's pleasantly surprised, but it's also a little confusing.
And after seeing Elisa. After Serena herself, there was a little more of a confused sense of confusion among them.
What exactly is the reason that will make Elisa. Characters like Selena, taking over such a mediocre chick movie like them?
It's not that they belittle themselves, but if you see Elisa's acting skills with your own eyes, and then combine them with their scripts, there will be a feeling of overkill.
Any director, since he has chosen this profession, must want to make a good movie.
No one wants to make bad movies every day, and they get golden sour plums every year!
So, Sary Spinner Berman and Robert Pacini looked at each other, and their eye contact revealed the answer they wanted.
Change the script! Change it!
____________________________
Long before reading the script, Elisa went through the list of people for this collaboration in her head.
Coincidentally, there was a person she knew.
- Chris. Evans, the future Captain America.
He looked noticeably more mature now than he did in London, and when Elisa greeted him with a smile, he reciprocated with a rather bright smile.
A slight grin was revealed, revealing the standard eight white teeth.
Elisa felt her eyes shake slightly.
Jill beside her has already helped her bring the things she needs for today from the nanny car, and compared to Angela, who signed an employment contract with UTA directly from Luisa, Elisa now obviously trusts Jill who is now paid directly to her.
Compared to when Jill first arrived with her, after filming in England and France, her style of work has become more stable.
Elisa was very relieved of her.
Before the filming of "The Nanny Diary" began, Chris . Evanste walked over and spoke to Elisa.
He knew the role they were playing in the movie, so he wanted to lay some foundation for acting in advance.
Of course, he is also very curious about this actress who has good acting skills at a young age.
If that time when he saw her in "London", it was just that she was still a little young in acting, then after being honed in "Brokeback Mountain" and "La Vie en Rose", he is looking forward to his rivalry with Elisa.
No one doesn't like to play with actors with good acting skills, and neither does Chris.

"The Nanny Diary" is about a twenty-one-year-old New York college student named Annie. After graduating, she was forced to wear a formal suit and go to the Upper East Side to look for a job because of pressure from her mother, but this job search did not match what she liked, so she gave up the interview. By chance, she meets a wife on the Upper East Side and is determined to change her current life by becoming the family's nannyβa job caring for their four-year-old son.
New York's Upper East Side, Fifth Avenue and Park Avenue are home to the wealthiest families, and Anne is tasked with taking care of the children to ensure that the hostess, who never cooks, cleans, or takes care of the children, lives a comfortable and satisfying day, and they see their son as an accessory to the family. The poor child has always longed for the attention of his parents, and the kind Anne wants to use her pedagogy to teach 4-year-old Glare the true meaning of happiness. But soon Anne learned the weight and hardships of the job. Trying to find a balance between the heavy workload of schoolwork and caring for mischievous children, and the noisy marriage that mixes children and the chaotic parents and their selfish attitudes towards their children.
While taking care of the children, Anne became acquainted with the husband who lived upstairs from the wife. Evans plays Haval Howdy, a rich kid. And the two gradually find themselves in love with each other. But soon, a rift appeared in the couple's marriage. This dispute shattered the illusion of a so-called decent life and a high-quality life.
After reading the entire script, Elisa can only give the evaluation that even after the movie "Nanny Diary" is made, it is only the passing line of the chick movie.
Although the idea is good, the plot is too thin, and it seems that the language organization and plot arrangement are not very reasonable.
UTA picked out this script for her, and it was painstaking.
But what she didn't expect was that just a few days after the movie started filming, the screenwriter took the initiative to find her and say that she wanted to change the script.
Although she was surprised in her heart, she didn't show anything on her face, and took over the newly revised script, she opened it and was happy.
If the people on the UTA side knew about the script change of "Nanny Diary", it is estimated that their faces would be gloomy and dripping
However, she took over the nanny diary, in addition to fighting against the company, she still had a little bit of her own careful thoughts, that is, she wanted to reduce her own value.
It may sound a bit confusing at first, but it's true.
Since it is inevitable to take over "Nanny Diary", of course she must create a little more value of her own on top of the pitiful value of "Nanny Diary".
After experiencing a few movies, her worth has soared, and she looks like the market is good and has a strong momentum, but among these clearly marked prices, Luisa's operation for her is also indispensable, which is also mixed with some water.
It is an indisputable fact that Hollywood actresses are generally paid less than male stars.
Whether it is the box office share or the price code offered at the beginning, there are very few actresses who can get a high price, and the female stars who can enter the 20 million club can be counted with one palm.
In this case, Elisa's excessively high value will not be a good thing.
Elisa's salary has reached the highest among the B-line stars, and it is not much worse than the first-line A coffee at the end of the crane.
This creates a very awkward situation.
Is it to spend a little more money to invite a first-line actress, or to invite Elisa, who is currently developing well. Serena?
This will become an obstacle for her to participate in some movies when she has not yet stepped into the first-line A-level celebrities.
This is a situation that Elisa does not want to see.
Louisa. Lindsay and Elisa are now in a good relationship, even if the nanny diary has been filming for many days, I haven't seen her have a phone call, which is normal in Elisa's eyes, but in the eyes of the crew, it is not so ordinary.
Generally speaking, agents will pay more attention to artists with good development momentum under their hands. Selina can be said to be the leader of the latest generation of actresses, as her agent, not to mention booing her, but paying more attention is always indispensable.
It's weird, it's really weird.
In this way, some people can't help but think of the recent rumors on the Internet.
"It's hard, Elisa. Is Serena really going to change companies? β
Everyone was naturally embarrassed to ask this question in front of Elisa, but behind this, many people secretly calculated something in their hearts.
UTA is considered a good agency in Hollywood, and Elisa. If Serena wants to change partner companies, there are only a few that she can choose from.
Among them, there is the overlord of Hollywood's brokerage company, CAA.
ββββββββββββββ
The relationship with UTA did not affect Elisa's filming in "The Nanny Diaries".
Naturally, she was not stupid enough to treat "Nanny Diary" negatively because it was a film that UTA gave her.
On the contrary, due to the limitations of the subject matter, her acting skills must be a little more brilliant than before in order to control the scene.
Fortunately, the revised script has made great progress compared to the beginning, leaving Elisa with more room to play.
"Elisa, Cooper said his bear cookie fell on you." Chris walked over to her with long legs.
When they're not playing, Chris always likes to play with Cooper during breaks.
According to his words, it is also very interesting to "tease this child who insists on learning to speak seriously".
There were beads of sweat on his forehead from the ball he had just played with Cooper, and in the sunlight, Elisa could clearly see the beads of sweat sliding down the outer contours of his cheeks.
It's sexyβshe thought.
Cooper is the little actor who plays the child she takes care of, he is very good at a young age, and he is a living treasure of the crew outside the play, and everyone likes him very much.
I don't know if it's because of the love generated by filming, even outside the scene, he likes to pester Elisa.
For Chris, who always likes to tease him, although he says he hates it, he still likes to play with him.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that in fact, he also likes Chris very much, but the child's awkwardness makes him embarrassed to say it, and he is simply a little tsundere.
Elisa gestured to the small wooden table that had been placed for her.
"Well, there, but he's already eaten a lot of snacks today, so you give him a little less."
Elisa and Chris have a lot of rivalry scenes in "The Nanny Diary", after so many days of filming, the two have been together for a long time, and they have gradually become very familiar with each other, and they don't have too many scruples when they talk.
Chris smiled brightly, but spread out his hands to show that he couldn't do anything about it.
"You know, I can't stop him, he only listens to you."
He grinned as he spoke, took the bear biscuit, and walked towards the long-awaited Cooper.
Elisa could only shake her head helplessly, closed the book she was reading, and followed him behind him to Cooper's location.
