Chapter 376: Enlightenment (Three Changes)

[Thank you 'official oo' for tipping 588, thank you!] 】

Smith's family went out to promote the movie "When Happiness Knocks on the Door", and there is no doubt that this news has brought great excitement to fans and Will Smith fans.

Not to mention the father and son, maybe his wife Jada will come out to make a cameo, and the whole family will go into battle together, which is really interesting! Many people who were not interested in "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" were also aroused and began to look forward to it, speculating "What kind of scene will the Smiths' performance be?" ”

This Christmas file, the literary film "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" starring Will Smith, has gained a lot of momentum as soon as it is promoted, and with the help of family pictures and Twentieth Century Fox, it has begun to rapidly seize the market for this year's Christmas file.

This family is out of the way, not only acting together, but also working harder when promoting, and it is really the whole family.

The Los Angeles Times quipped: "It seems that Will Smith really has a lot of confidence in Galenhu, and obviously he doesn't think it's going to happen that 'a family is in a bad movie at the same time.'" He's already won two Golden Raspberry awards, and after a year, will he regret it? But one thing is for sure, there is also a hidden winner, Galenhu, who has been manipulating everything behind the scenes. I think he must be happy now, it's all his propaganda and he succeeded. ”

Of course, Hu Yifei is happy, and the investment cost of 55 million US dollars can only be considered moderate. But he knows that this movie is basically a sure win.

And he is not a hands-off shopkeeper for this movie, but he has also done a lot of help from the producer's point of view.

Leaving aside the script, I consulted with director Galibbul many times about the artistic style of the shooting, and finally reached an agreement that it would be shot in an unpretentious style of cinematography with bright colors, and the colors would change appropriately according to the content of the story.

At the beginning of the story, Chris's life has not changed, the colors are medium and bright, and when shooting street scenes, the picture needs to have a slightly yellowed historical feeling; When Chris struggles, the colors can be a little duller; When he persists, to the final success, the colors will become more and more sunny and warm.

The artistic style always adheres to the fate of the characters.

Let the audience from beginning to end, they are in a feeling of love in late autumn. It's like a warm morning light in autumn, and it's heartwarming.

In fact, the original version of "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" has quite a lot of "goofs", and later netizens summarized it a little and grabbed more than 23 goofs from it. Maybe I didn't pay much attention to it when I was shooting.

But in the end, when the family pictures exercised the final editing rights, when Hu Yifei found so many goofs in front of them, Gabriel Muchino and Will Smith almost had to find a crack to get into.

Although they are all innocuous details, unless they are particularly harsh and specially come to catch insects, ordinary audience fans will generally not find out, let alone study them. But as a creator, eliminating goofs is the most basic thing. There are so many goofs in several places at once, which means that everyone from the director to the set designer has unqualified places.

Fortunately, the film "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" won a lot of praise at the pre-screening preview prepared by Twentieth Century Fox.

"It's hard to believe that this is the male lead played by Will Smith, a Golden Sour Plum Award regular, but it really happened. In this movie, Will Smith changed all the previous screen images, he was haggard and vicissitudes, a middle-aged man who was running for a living all day long; He also changed all his previous acting styles, he successfully portrayed a gentle, positive, optimistic, family-loving, and humorous man, and his silent crying in the subway station toilet is one of the best movie clips of the year. What made Will Smith's adaptation so big, it can only be said that he met Galenhu, which completely changed him into a person. ”

"Will's performance is enough to be called the level of the Oscar for Best Actor."

A high score of 8.5 on IMDB indicates that this is definitely a strong Oscar player.

Twentieth Century Fox was overjoyed, originally they just flew towards Hu Yi, but they didn't expect to inadvertently harvest a heavy treasure. With such a strong word-of-mouth performance, coupled with the appeal of the Will family, they are already looking forward to how to count the money comfortably after the release.

……

The gymnasium at Orange County Middle School was filled with teenagers in basketball uniforms, chatting in twos and threes, waiting for the filming to begin. They are all extras in "Juno", and the crew hired the school's basketball team to participate in the performance on the spot, and they didn't even have to trouble the actors' union.

Hu Yifei's crew filmed here surprisingly smoothly, with a high degree of cooperation from Orange County Middle School. Several group scenes of the cheerleader played by Nina Dubov were filmed very easily, and the filming speed of the scenes was far faster than expected.

But these are just appetizers, and the real protagonist hasn't appeared yet. It's more about warming up the actors so that they can find a feeling and get into the state quickly.

The next morning, the sun was shining.

The crew's first shot of the day was Juno, carrying a drink bottle through many streets in the town and coming to a grocery store. Baby walks down the quiet, leafy street with his drink, his steps are sloppy, and from time to time he lifts up a huge bottle to take a sip. She was followed by a large group of film crews, and Hu Yifei paid attention to her demeanor, steps, movements, etc.

"Cut, stop, go through again, let go naturally."

"Cut, do it again."

β€œagain!”

……

Not long after it started, he frequently encountered Hu Yifei NG, and the crew didn't say anything, but the baby's performance was getting worse and worse. Drinking too many drinks is one thing, and holding it in the toilet is another, but the pressure in her heart is about to collapse her. Feeling aggrieved, when he couldn't stand it anymore, Hu Yifei finally relented, "Take a rest first." ”

Many people breathed a sigh of relief, and Nina Dubov, who was watching from the sidelines, shrunk her neck and prayed for the baby. Fortunately, her scene yesterday was quite smooth. The performance of the airport cheerleaders is also due to the fact that she has practiced gymnastics, which is difficult for her. Otherwise, today's situation is likely to fall on her.

Hu Yifei beckoned to the baby, and the baby walked over aggrievedly, thinking that he was going to suffer a reprimand, but he didn't expect Hu Yifei to smile kindly, and said, "You are acting very well, but you have to be more natural." Come up with a funny personality, don't make progress, think about how Hong Kong ruffians walk, you can just learn how you want. ”

Baby's heart was sour, and she almost burst into tears, knowing in her heart that this was mostly comfort, how nervous she was and how clear she was, she took a deep breath and said seriously: "...... I'll try. ”

"Well, okay, don't cry. Juno is not a girl who likes to cry, if you want to cry, wait until the crying scene to make you cry enough. ”

Baby suddenly got up embarrassed and wiped the corners of his eyes, "I didn't cry." ”

"Come on."

Shooting again, the baby tilted her head back and drank a drink, but she tripped under her feet, and the stones on the road almost tripped her. She didn't think much of it, just raised her foot and kicked the stone away.

β€œGood!”

Hu Yifei couldn't help but shout hello, this is not a preset picture, but this improvisation is very good, indicating that the baby has begun to enter the state.

It has been almost two years since she was picked up from Hong Kong, and now she is finally usable. Anyway, there is a sense of accomplishment. (To be continued.) )
