Chapter 17: Good Luck

Outside the gate, a well-dressed Loew took a deep breath.

Jude looked at his watch and encouraged, "Take it easy, you can do it!" ”

Loew nodded vigorously and began to silently recite his next lines in his head.

"It's now!"

Jude ordered his watch, and Loew raised his hand and knocked the door.

The door opened, Jude flashed to the side, and Mueller and Loew, who opened the door, embraced, and the camera behind them recorded the scene in its entirety.

The camera followed Muller and Loew in the direction of the living room, Jude poked his head out of the doorway, glanced inside, and made sure that the camera had left and he would not appear, so he walked in.

There is a heated discussion in the living room about whether the male protagonist is a caveman who has lived for 14,000 years, and all the actors are engaged, and almost no one realizes that Jude is in.

Eman Ruhr kept his eyes on the camera's frame, and he knew Jude was right behind him, so he raised his hand and made an oK gesture to tell Jude that everything was going well.

Jim was wearing headphones, engrossed in the effects of the live recording, and had no time to say hello to Jude.

Seeing that the entire crew was running in an orderly manner, Jude silently retreated to the shooting corner of the room and stood still, holding hands and quietly watching everyone's performance.

An hour and a half, Jude felt like a century.

The debate in the living room has become white-hot, especially Mueller's statement that he is Jesus, which directly caused several friends, including the Christian Maggie, to join forces to besiege him, and finally in order to appease the emotions of his friends, under Petty's plea, Mueller had to admit that it was all a story he had made up.

Muller in front of the camera reflected the actor's helpless and tangled emotions on his face at the moment, and Aiman Ruhr, who saw the camera behind him, couldn't help but secretly applaud.

is worthy of being a teacher who specializes in teaching acting courses, and such acting skills are enough to make many Hollywood professional actors ashamed.

And Jim, who is holding the recorder tightly, is also in a very uneasy mood at the moment, and since the film has been filmed, the entire crew, from the director to the actors, has refreshed his cognition again and again.

Maybe this movie can really be made in one go, right?

Jim was careful to make such assumptions in his mind.

As time progressed, seeing that the film was nearing its end, Aiman Ruhr and Jim's palms had begun to sweat, and Jude, who was standing in the corner, clenched his fists, and the tension in his heart had been undisguised on his face.

Although he had deduced the shooting scene in front of him countless times in his mind, all possible problems had been discovered and eliminated, and all the shooting steps and timing had been accurately calculated, Jude still couldn't be completely relieved.

For many nights before the shoot, he kept asking himself in his head, can he really make it?

It's not a simple reproduction of the image in your mind, it's a re-creation of the original film, and the difficulty is almost the same as remaking a movie.

Aiman Ruhr slowly backed away with the camera, and Mueller sent his friends to the door and waved goodbye.

Tony, Maggie, and Han Lin got into the silver-gray car, Jeff and Kate put their motorcycle helmets back on, and Loew got into a white station wagon, and the camera circled around them before stopping at Muller and Petty standing in front of the porch.

The two still have a final dialogue, and the other actors who have already finished their work have run behind photographer Aiman Ruhr, looking at the two in front of the camera with anticipation.

Maggie made a cross on her chest and prayed silently in her heart, "God forbid, don't go wrong!" ”

Loew was about to speak, when he suddenly realized that there was still a voice, and his throat rolled, and he swallowed what he wanted to say.

Tony's eyes were fixed on Petty, for fear that she would miss a line and ruin the whole shoot.

Although Han Lin's expression was not as worried as the others, his quietly clenched hands still betrayed the feeling in his heart at the moment.

Jeff nervously pulled the cigarette case out of his pocket and tried twice before he was able to put it in his mouth.

Kate stood quietly to the side with a motorcycle helmet, full of contradictions.

On the one hand, like everyone else, she hopes that there will be no problems with the final scene between Muller and Petty, but on the other hand, she is full of melancholy when she thinks that she will have to say goodbye to everyone after this play.

Under everyone's anticipation and attention, Muller and Petty finally completed the final performance, and the two got into the pickup truck hand in hand, and the taillights of the car gradually faded away, and finally disappeared into the night.

Aiman Ruhr took his eyes off the camera frame and straightened up with a long sigh of relief.

Jim took off his headphones and walked over to high-five Aiman Ruhr in celebration.

As the two of them clasped hands together, everyone else behind them began to hug and celebrate.

Mueller and Petty quickly returned in the pickup truck, and Petty hugged Maggie and Kate tightly as soon as she got out of the car, shouting excitedly, "I did it!" I did it! ”

Muller's reaction was no better than Petty's, he hugged Tony and Loew one by one, although he didn't say a word, but this was already the biggest reaction of this deep and introverted man to express his excitement.

"Petty, from today on, I have decided to make you my idol. It's amazing that you didn't say a single line wrong this time! When Jeff and Petty hugged, they couldn't help but make jokes about each other, and as a result, they were punched in the chest.

Tony put his arm around Han Lin's shoulders and stood with the three of them as they discussed where to go to celebrate tonight.

Han Lin proposed to go to Chinatown for Chinese food, but everyone agreed unanimously.

Here Maggie took Kate's hand and asked her about her plans for the future.

"So you're going back to England soon, aren't you?"

"It's easier to act there than in the United States, and I'm going to start with TV dramas and hone myself slowly." Kate doesn't have a clear plan for her future, but since Maggie asks, she can only say some of her simple thoughts.

"Maybe you can ask Jude, he should be the most experienced of our group, and while most of it isn't a good thing, I'm sure he can help you."

Maggie's suggestion strikes Kate's heart, and she turns her head and begins to look for Jude in the celebratory crowd.

"Mr. Lubezki, have you seen Director Locke?"

"I don't see it, he should still be in the living room, right?" Aiman Ruhr looked in the direction of the house with some uncertainty, and Jude never showed up for fear of interfering with the filming because the camera camera was always pointing at that side.

"Okay, I'll go find him." Kett nodded, turned and walked towards the porch.

Emmanrull thought that he was about to go to Jude to talk about the shooting just now, so he was about to go in with Kate, and was about to take a step, when a hand suddenly reached out and grabbed him.

Jim stood in front of Aymanrull and smiled meaningfully at him, "Don't forget our previous bet!" ”
