2119. Chapter 2119 2119 Restart
The whole crew was silent, even a little wind could be heard clearly, the atmosphere that was so quiet to the extreme even revealed a hint of depression, plus the place itself was an old mental hospital, and the cold musty smell in the air was even more chilling.
I only heard yesterday afternoon that Hugo woke up, and today the crew officially resumed work. Although the doctor emphasized that Hugo was only physically exhausted, coupled with the coma caused by excessive stress, and he only fell asleep after fainting, and there was no real problem, it was still worrying. After all, the challenge of the role of John Nash is definitely not to be underestimated for Hugo.
What's more, the first scene of today's resumption of work is very difficult. In fact, this is the scene immediately before Hugo faints, Alicia comes to the hospital to visit John, for John, Alicia is the only person he can trust now, she is all his hope, but Alicia's words completely shatter all of John's illusions - it is confirmed that John is suffering from schizophrenia.
This scene was very difficult for both Hugo and Charlize.
Alicia took John to the hospital with her own hands, but in fact she didn't understand what John was all about, she just wanted to help John. However, it was learned from Dr. Rosen that John had a very severe schizophrenia, and it lasted for many years, and even Charles, whom she knew, was a fictional character. Alicia didn't want to believe that she and John had been in love for so many years, and everything she knew about John seemed to have changed dramatically, and she tried everything to confirm the doctor's claim, which made Alicia's world fall apart.
However, Alicia could not fall, let alone give up, because John needed her support. The cruelest part for Alicia is that she needs to tell John about it, that is, she needs to overthrow John's world with her own hands.
John finally waited for Alicia to appear, she was now his only hope and concern, and he hoped that Alicia would prove his innocence and save him. But his hope was cruelly punctured by Alicia like a soap bubble, and what was even more terrifying was that Alicia told him that he was sick, schizophrenic, that the whole world he was familiar with was a fiction, and that the espionage work he had poured all his heart and soul into was even more useless, and that this was not only the collapse of faith, but also the collapse of all dreams, all lives, and all values, which made John completely collapse, like the walking dead.
Therefore, this scene is very difficult, and what is even more difficult is that this scene does not have a strong outburst of scenes, but more of a turbulent wave in the depths of the heart, and the strongly entangled bond between John and Alicia looms and separates, which puts forward super high requirements for the two actors.
The entire crew was extremely worried, and they were more worried about Hugo's situation than about the filming situation. Even if they heard Charlize, Joseph, Leonardo and others repeatedly assure that Hugo had recovered, they had not seen Hugo since Hugo fainted three days ago, and now no one knows what Hugo is doing; But at the same time, people have to admire Hugo's dedication and dedication, although the circle has always praised Hugo's crew performance, but only when the crew is really involved in the filming, can you feel how much effort Hugo has put in behind the three Oscar performance statuettes, even ordinary people can't imagine the effort.
Worry and anticipation, uneasiness and excitement, panic and excitement...... All kinds of contradictory emotions are entangled, so that the whole crew has no sound at all, even if they haven't started filming at all, they still can't hear any sound, it seems that everyone is absentmindedly waiting for Hugo to appear.
Then Hugo appeared, and so it appeared without warning.
In an instant, everyone stopped the work at hand that had no meaning at all, and their eyes were projected towards Hugo, and even many people stood up uncontrollably, as if they were receiving the leader.
Hugo had already changed his clothes, he was wearing a psychiatric hospital gown, his hair was neatly combed, and under the wide hospital gown, Hugo could be seen to be slightly blessed - in order to match the character's situation, Hugo had been gaining weight. Hugo looked in good spirits, with a shallow smile on his face, "I'm sorry, because my personal situation delayed the filming of the crew, I hope I didn't cause more losses." I'll be in charge of today's afternoon tea. β
This was Hugo's first sentence after remeeting the crew after sleeping for nearly two days. Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, obviously not expecting Hugo to use such a humorous way as an opening statement, so that no one could react.
However, Hugo didn't give everyone further time to react, he walked quickly towards Ron Howard, and then saw a small girl standing next to him, a little strange, but also a little familiar, Hugo vaguely remembered that it should be Lang's daughter, he smiled at the little girl and nodded, and then communicated with Lang, "How to arrange the camera position of this scene?" β
Long couldn't help choking and looked at Hugo in front of him, "Man, are you sure it's okay?" We can rest for a few more days if we need to, and your situation is all that matters, isn't it? β
Hugo smiled and shook his head, "I won't force myself, don't worry." Honestly, I'm in better shape than ever, and you have to trust me. "Hugo only feels excited now, because he really feels a new field of acting, and he can't wait to experience and verify it.
Lang did not answer immediately, but looked carefully at Hugo's eyes, saw the glint of excitement in those eyes, and then looked at Charlize who was following behind Hugo. Charlize showed a shallow smile and nodded slightly, "Director, if you don't fulfill his wishes, I don't think everyone in the crew should sleep today." A teasing sentence made Lang chuckle.
Bryce Dallas Howard, who was standing next to Lang. Dallasγ Howard) is indeed his daughter, who is just nineteen years old this year, and this time she came to the crew to visit the class to study. Beginning in 1988, driven by a certain superstition, Lang believed that in each of his films, a close relative should appear in the film lens. Bryce also appeared as a member of a group of college extras in the movie this time, and the scene she appeared in was the scene where Rosen and other hospital staff rounded up John.
Bryce looked at Hugo in front of her obsessively and intently, and there was a glint of adoration in the depths of her eyes.
After half an hour of preparation, two rehearsals were held before and after, and the filming of this scene was officially announced. Hugo and Charlize were already in place, but just as the field reporter was about to come out to play the field board, Long shook his head and walked in front of Hugo again, "Man, are you sure it's really okay?" Thinking of the recent shooting, remembering the picture of Hugo fainting three days ago, Lang couldn't control his emotions.
Hugo smiled dumbly, but he didn't explain himself in a hurry, but restrained the smile on his face and nodded to Lang seriously, "Yes, I'm ready." Lang stared at Hugo's eyes, and finally was defeated, wanting to say something, but in the end he still held back his words, just patted Hugo's shoulder, and turned away.
Hugo turned to look at Charlize, who was about seven paces away from him, and the two exchanged glances. Charlize saw Hugo's eager expression, although she was still worried in her heart - she had no way to control herself, perhaps, this inseparable and uncontrollable concern was destined to be with her forever, but the smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't help but outline. Charlize knows that such Hugo is the truest and most beautiful face, and such Hugo is the man she fell in love with like a moth to a fire.
Seeing the scene reporter running in front of the camera, the commotion of the crew calmed down almost in a blink of an eye, everyone held their breath, but no one could tell whether they were nervous or expectant, only that the beating of the heart had completely stopped at this moment.
"Smack", a crisp clapperboard sounded, and then silence quickly resumed.
Alicia sat on a chair in the interview room, dressed in a black suit, looking down at her hands, a faint gloom between her eyebrows, but she couldn't erase it, as if the light of the whole world had dissipated between those heavy thoughts.
There was a sound of the door opening directly in front of her, and Alicia raised her eyes, and then saw John, who was dazed and anxious between his eyebrows, walking into the interview room with small steps. John looked around a little flustered, and then saw Alicia, but he didn't notice that Alicia didn't have the slightest excitement, and even moved his eyebrows closer to the middle, but he turned his head to look at the medical staff who opened the door for him, and glared at the other party heavily, as if to say, "I'm going to be saved now, and the person who can prove my innocence has finally appeared!" β
Then John looked at Alicia.
Alicia slowly stood up a little nervously, walked to the side of her chair, and looked at John in silence and worry; John looked at Alicia in disbelief, the smile on the corner of his mouth pulled slightly, but then the sadness and pain that surged up made his voice a little choked, and the happy smile was suddenly full of the emotion and beauty of escaping, he walked forward quickly and hugged Alicia hard.
Alicia looked at John in disbelief, who was getting closer and closer to her, and when the familiar embrace enveloped her, the worry between her brows finally relaxed: he was real, his husband was real, all this was not her fantasy, the man she loved so much was real. That relief made her hug John hard, hoping to use this way to calm her inner restlessness and restlessness.
