The lights are dim, the ground is wet, it is the first time it has rained since the end of the rainy season in Kenya, the temperature in Nairobi is only in the early 20s, the humidity is warm, and the steaming rises, shrouding the man in a trench coat in a slimy paste, without a little neatness, sadness, sadness, just simple irritability.

Daniel folded his shoulders, his back was depressed, and in the desolate garden that was knocked down by the rain, he had the meaning of a trapped beast at the end for no reason.

With the exception of the cameraman, the crew members either stood aside or huddled behind Fernando, staring at the monitor with him.

The performance is sometimes complicated, costumes, shapes, makeup, gestures, gaits, expressions, sounds, lighting...... Each change may produce a different touch, resulting in different performance forms. But sometimes it's very simple, what I think, what you think, I stand there and walk the clouds, you can touch it behind the camera.

This is the realm.

If it is a rainy night in winter, this shot may not be difficult, but it will also be shallow, cold wind and rain, the loveless, through the glass, the lens can easily be filled with desolation, sadness, and helplessness. But now it's completely different, Nairobi's sleepy warm climate covers the whole scene with a curtain, the rainy night is only slightly cool, the cold hair is not erect, and the breath is not white fog curling up.

But as soon as Daniel closed his shoulders, tilted his head, and inhaled until seven minutes, he was silent when he breathed comfortably.

A man who was trapped in Kenya at this moment suddenly had the grandeur of confronting heaven and earth.

Gentle and clever, silent and forceful.

Justin gathered away the tools scattered in the garden, picked up the fallen chair, splashed the accumulated rainwater from the fruit bowl, and spread out his hand—the makeup artist would not have spent much more effort on this hand today than Daniel's face. The bones are distinct, blue and white, and stretched out, stiff like a skeleton sticking out of a thousand-year-old cave.

Sirloin lowered the camera and pulled a close-up, and a distinct streamer fell diagonally from his index finger. Skip the nail caps of the middle, ring and little fingers, and leave a dull, milky white halo on the white porcelain fruit plate, which is large and small, large and small. It's like breathing.

Fernando's "click" made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

That's the show, that's the show.

The small supporting roles and tricks invited by the crew all showed a confused taste in their eyes.

The assistant immediately brought a large bath towel and hot tea.

Daniel wiped it casually and took a sip of green tea. After sniffing deeply, he let out a sigh of relief and prepared for the next scene.

"Look, what scared my actors?"

Fernando couldn't help but "blame" him.

For Daniel, there is room for performance in this play, and it turns out that the leading actor, Ralph. Fiennes is too willing to be a green leaf, he integrates himself into the plot, he is a foil when he should be a foil for Rachel, and when he is used as a clue prop - not that it is bad. This kind of actor is often shortlisted for the kind of inventory: "the indispensable golden supporting role in the movie" or "the movie stranger who makes you most familiar". But generally speaking, if the actor can only do this, he is irresponsible to himself. Maybe the work will still achieve good results, obedience has a taste of obedience, and bursting has a burst of style. But for the actors themselves, striving to give a higher quality performance and let more sparks spark is actually part of the protagonist's responsibility, as well as an obligation and right.

Each of Daniel's one-man shows is full of force and addiction.

This has probably even become a trick for local Kenyans who are interested in acting careers. and the living textbooks for supporting actors from Hollywood and Britain to learn acting skills, which were staged twice in three days, and each time it ravaged their souls and confidence.

……

A rare holiday, Rachel is really fine. Fernando still gave her three days, so in order to catch up with the work, Daniel had to work continuously for more than half a month, and there was no vacation until today.

Daniel, Rachel, Fernando, Simon, Jeffrey - except for Danny. Houston decided to visit a wildlife park in Kenya because of the need to catch up on sleep for a night scene, and came to Africa not to see those wonderful animals. It's a bit of a tyrannical feeling.

Unfortunately, some Los Angeles paparazzi have recently come to Nairobi - all for the reason Rachel was admitted to the hospital.

Although the crew agreed that Rachel was not very adaptable to the climate in Kenya, she went to the hospital for a check-up, and now she is much better.

But not everyone will believe it, Daniel, Darren. Aronofsky, Rachel. Vichy, plus a Natalie. Portman, this dense network of scandals, is enough for the paparazzi to buy a ticket and fly to Nairobi to keep an eye on it. Against Africans, the Los Angeles paparazzi have full confidence.

And it did, and they soon got Rachel to see an obstetrician-gynecologist.

The news could no longer be hidden.

Marta privately tells Daniel that Arrow and Rachel have been arguing several times across the ocean, and Arrow asks her to stop working - a very difficult request to refuse, otherwise the crew could easily be perceived as mean. Rachel herself certainly wouldn't agree, but her will to finish the film was no weaker than anyone else's, especially when everyone's performances were getting better, and when every focused discussion ended with a confident slogan, she easily strengthened her determination to do the job well.

The paparazzi didn't go back either, keeping an eye on Rachel every day, hoping to get a picture of her slightly bulging belly — a guarantee that it would be worth a lot of money.

So, now that he is mainly going out, he will inevitably be photographed - although they are coming for Rachel's stomach, but they can also be sold for a fortune if they can photograph Daniel's daily life - after all, he is now far away from Los Angeles, and there are not many people who can fly here to take pictures.

"Daniel and Rachel traveled together on vacation and had a great conversation."

Daniel tells Rachel the title of the paparazzi's next issue, and Rachel can't laugh.

Their destination today is Nairo National Park, an open-air safari park built in the capital, the only one in the world without a semicolon.

The Kenyan staff came forward to help everyone buy tickets, although everyone is not short of money, but the price mechanism is very imperfect in Kenya, killing foreigners is very powerful, sometimes the native only needs 300 Kenyan shillings, and the foreigner has to ask for 3000.

The group of them divided into two tour buses to do it, and met many tourists from Western countries on the way, and they were even more excited to see Daniel than to see a lion.

The guide was so frightened that he thought the lion had climbed up.

Nairobi's National Zoo is actually not huge, and compared to many open zoos in Africa, the capital is at a premium. However, it will take a whole day to complete the tour. Daniel and they didn't finish the round, but they also saw a lot of wild animals, and they were lucky, during the rainy season, the animals would migrate from here and not come back until the dry season, if it had been a little earlier, there would probably be nothing to see.

Coming out of the main entrance around four p.m., Daniel, Miller, Rachel and Marta went to visit the Kenya Animal Orphanage.

As the name suggests, this orphanage, which is full of harmony between man and nature, is designed to treat young animals that have been abandoned by their parents, poached by their parents, or died accidentally, and the staff raise them to develop their ability to survive in the wild, and then release them.

Those poor injured little animals can easily impress the sympathy of the flood of tourists.

Rachel, the expectant mother, hugged a baby orangutan and asked Marta to take a lot of pictures of her, although Daniel didn't know what the orangutans were cute, but at Rachel's enthusiastic invitation, she also hugged and took a few photos. However, relatively speaking, he still prefers the little leopard, with its non-threatening teeth and soft body.

As Hollywood superstars, they still get some preferential treatment, hugging several small animals - of course, the price is to take a photo with the manager, and then they will put the photo on MB and F2F, on that, they have an official account, Kenya has been doing quite well in attracting Europeans and Americans to travel, for F2F and MB This kind of social tool, they will be very fast, and they are very easy to use, plus they have rich resources in their hands, as long as they follow the sightseeing bus out for a turn, a lot of original photos of various wild animals will come out, It is quite attractive to Europeans and Americans who yearn for the African savannah.

Fernando and they went to the Ivory Burning Monument, where former Kenyan President Moi burned a large amount of ivory and artifacts in this elephant-free safari park to show the protection of elephants. It's also a place worth visiting, especially for humans who want to reflect on themselves.

……

The dry season in Kenya means less food for wildlife and more difficult to raise their young. But good news for the crew of "The Immortal Gardener" who work here, the rainy season is really sad, the clothes are wet all day, and even though they have dryers, as long as they wear them, they get wet in a few minutes.

The filming of the film also went well, and although Daniel was a little cautious when he continued the intimate scene with Rachel, Fernando was satisfied.

Until mid-July, most of the scene had been carried out.

There is good news from the United States.

Market regulators have agreed to a deal between DD Pictures and MGM, and the European Union is expected to agree to the deal by the end of this month – which is not surprising that the process is much faster than it has historically been. Sony plus MGM may jeopardize consumers' right to choose and form a kind of monopoly on price, but DD Pictures does not have the ability to do this.

In this world of "fairness and justice", there are benefits to being weak. (To be continued.) )
