Chapter 365: Don't Forget to Notice
In February in London, you can already smell the breath of spring, and Warsaw, the capital of Poland, is still in the ice and snow, because of the physique, Ryan dislikes this kind of weather the most, but many scenes of "The Pianist" need to be completed in ice and snow.
In the hotel room, Ryan sat by the old-fashioned fireplace, enjoying the pitiful nutritious meal, and just wanted to pick up the hot coffee next to him, and Roman who was sitting on the sofa? Polanski spoke.
"Ryan, you're going to be on a diet, and I want you to be thinner if you can." He reminded.
"Roman, believe me, if you bring me a roasted whole lamb at this time, I can eat it all!" Ryan waved his hand, vented the resentment that had been building up in his stomach for a long time, and said, "I only weigh a little over one hundred and thirty-two pounds now!" ”
In the metric system, which is more than 60 kilograms, with Ryan's height of six feet and an inch, such a thin weight is like the bamboo in the exterior picture sent by Ang Lee.
Ryan even wondered if he would fly into the sky and become a part of the snowstorm if the snow was a little heavier outside.
Maybe you might even turn into a snowman!
Thinking wildly and diverting attention is undoubtedly a good way to deal with hunger. Ryan was helpless, and the sudden snowstorm in Warsaw brought huge obstacles to the crew, so that the filming had to be postponed.
"Ryan, there are some shots, I hope you can go hungry for a while before shooting, the feeling of hunger helps you understand the situation of the character at that time."
Roman? Polanski's words simply made matters worse, and Ryan was very skeptical, whether he had made a special trip to invite this guy to be in charge of the camera, was it the right choice?
Shaking his head, Ryan walked over to the piano and, after a few simple preparatory movements, landed his hands on the black and white keys, and Chopin's Ballade No. 1 in G minor played. Although he threw music aside over the years, he practiced hard as a child, and it didn't take much time for him to find the feeling he had when he came to Warsaw, but it took time and practice to regain a certain level of performance.
Ryan remembers very well, Adrian in his previous life? Brody paid a terrible price for this role, and even starved every day while filming. I have to spend at least four hours practicing the piano, which is really nothing.
If you want to have any kind of gain, you must have equal or more pay.
Besides, I am afraid that all this I endured was not even a tenth of that of Spearman himself.
After practicing the piano for a while, Polanski and Ryan discussed the role again, and then quit, originally taking over the director's job, he looked more at the theme of the movie and the script with a cold atmosphere. I never thought that I would be the same person as a representative of Hollywood commercial films.
What he didn't expect was that his opinion on this movie had so many similarities with his own, could it be that this guy also has a deep insight into art films?
It's just that why can't he concentrate on artistic creation, instead of focusing on those commercial popcorn that he doesn't know about?
This is simply a crime. To waste talent is to commit a crime!
Of course Ryan doesn't know about Roman? Polanski's thoughts, and he didn't care too much about what he thought of himself, this old Polish man did have a weird personality, but he stood behind the camera. He will become a serious and responsible director, perhaps because of his experience in Hollywood, and he is not like traditional European directors. I have to add to the picture those things that the audience doesn't like at all.
In Ryan's mind, he and Roman? Polanski's intersection is limited to this film.
The phone rang suddenly, and the monotonous ringing was unusually harsh in the quiet room, and Ryan looked at the displayed number and smiled.
"Hi, Nicole."
"Honey, guess where I am now." Nicole's voice was accompanied by the laughter of a woman and the rolling of the waves.
"Hawaii? Beach? Ryan asked.
"Got it right, but it didn't add any extra points." Nicole put away her laughter and asked, "What about you, how are you over there?" ”
"Warsaw is a land of ice and snow and is currently suffering from a blizzard." Ryan said helplessly, "I'm hiding in the hotel, the old-fashioned fireplace here is very distinctive. ”
"Protect yourself, Ryan." There was obvious concern in Nicole's voice, "Don't forget your physique. ”
"Don't worry, I'm strong." Even though Nicole couldn't see it, Ryan made a gesture with his arms bent.
"Don't forget, you're not in good health right now." Nicole probably remembered Ryan's somewhat powerless performance when he was in London, "I knew that Lu Dao would suffer so much to make this movie, and whatever I said would stop you." ”
"Well, dear, it's only been a few months, and it's gone by quickly."
"Alright, that's it for now...... Ah, Taylor! Nicole screamed and said, "The little one wants to talk to you." ”
Then, Taylor's voice rang in his ears, "Ryan, I heard it's snowing over there?" ”
"I guess the snow on the streets will reach your knees." Ryan walked to the window, and outside was the world of strong winds and heavy snow.
"Oh...... That's right. Listening to the voice, Ryan guessed that it shouldn't be a good thing to do next, and sure enough, "I haven't seen snow in a long time, Ryan, can you mail me one?" ”
After saying that, the little guy over there was already a crisp laugh.
"Honey, if there is a chance, I will ask FedEx to send you to the North Pole to see the snow......"
"Don't be embarrassed, it's too cold in there."
Hung up the phone, most of the depression caused by the diet was gone, and Ryan just wanted to go to the lobby of the hotel to take a walk, when the phone rang again.
This time it's numbers from Los Angeles.
"Hello, Ryan."
Despite the hoarse and slurred voice, Ryan could hear its owner, "Charlie? ”
"I didn't expect it to be me, yes, I guess you rarely think of me."
"You...... Drunk? Ryan asked tentatively.
"I'm in a good mood and drank a little."
Feeling good? Judging by Ryan's voice, it seems that this should be said the other way around, right?
"Did something happen, Charlie?"
"Know, Ryan, I won the Golden Globe. Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Drama Series, a very heavy award, many people congratulated me, I know, I don't know, some come to the door in person, and some call ......"
"I'm sorry, Charlie." Ryan scratched his head, and after he explained the public relations matters, he forgot about it, "It's not too late to say congratulations now, right?" ”
"Late, how could it be?" Charlize? Theron's voice sounded very weird, as if he was biting his lip and tongue, suppressing something, "I'm not stupid, with my qualifications and connections, if it weren't for you behind the back, this award would definitely not fall into my hands......"
Listening to the strange murmur on the phone, Ryan sighed, "Charlie......"
"Ryan, how can I thank you? Oscar nomination for Best Actress, Wow...... How do you think I can thank you? "According to the rules of Hollywood, I have to thank you, don't say that we are good friends, I have never treated you as my good friend!" ”
"Charlie, you've drunk too much." Ryan suddenly felt a headache, what is going on, he helped others and made a mistake?
"Where are you now, London or Warsaw?"
The person on the other side of the phone must have drunk too much, and Ryan didn't listen to what he said at all, and was still talking to himself, "I've been in Hollywood for so long, and I know the rules of the way that you have to pay back accordingly......"
"Alright, Charlie, stop talking drunk."
Frowning, Ryan sighed again and simply hung up the phone, God knew what a drunk woman would say.
It seems like you should keep your distance from the South African diamond?
After living for so many years in the two lives combined, Ryan knows the inferior nature of men, even if his control is a little stronger, he is definitely stronger than other men, otherwise there would be no Queen Nicole, and Natalie......
Even if the other party is the type he likes very much, from his figure to his careful personality, but ......
Ryan finally made up his mind, and in the future, Charlize? Theron or is it up to Pie? Jin Sili took care of it, and she didn't mix it into it, in case something couldn't be controlled, it would be a big trouble.
Warsaw is icy and snowy, but Wellington, the capital of New Zealand in the southern hemisphere, is a hot summer. Jackson temporarily moved his studio to the city to coincide with the filming of The Lord of the Rings.
At this time, the person in charge of the crew, including him and his wife, was determining the results of the auditions for several roles.
"You don't have a problem with Legolas's candidate, right?" When the crowd shook their heads, Peter? Jackson continued, "That's him. ”
He said to his assistant, "To Orlando?" Bloom's agent sent an official notice. ”
Then, the big fat man in New Zealand said a lot of names of actors, such as Ian who played Gandalf? Sir McLean, as Frodo? Baggins' Elijah? Wood, as Kellan? Kate of Triel? Blanchett and many more.
At this point, there is only one main role left in this group drama and no one has been decided.
"Arwen? Twilight. "Peter? Jackson picked up an audition photo from the profile, showing the person with long black hair and a long face, "I think the best candidate is her." ”
Julis? Stewart shook his head without hesitation, everything else is easy to say, this actor will not agree to anything.
"Peter." Francis? Watts gave her husband a look.
She didn't expect her husband to be so stubborn, almost most insiders have heard of this actress, and she will definitely not be able to pass the level of Jenkins Films.
"Okay then."
Peter? Jackson, who was neither an idealist nor a stubborn paranoid, took another piece of information, "Then choose her." ”
He turned his head again and said to his assistant, "Don't forget to inform Charlize?" Miss Theron's agent. (To be continued......)
