Chapter 340: Surprise

"Cigarettes?" The girl with a bob head, dressed in ancient Egyptian costume, and with a cigarette case on her chest, looked at the young man sitting at the table with hopeful eyes.

"Oh, no, xiexie, I don't smoke." The other shook his head, then looked at her with interest, then looked at his companion and said in a surprised tone, "As long as you have a tone, you won't let it go, will you, man?" ”

The words were frivolous, but with a kind of appreciation and surprise, as if they were surprised by the beauty that the girl exuded, so they did not sound offensive.

He quickly continued: "God, can you do me a favor? Can you laugh for me? Just a little? ”

The man's tone was eager and sincere, as if he really wanted to see the girl's smile, and his eyes were full of interest and admiration, and he raised his hand, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly, as if making a silent tsk.

So even though the words were still frivolous, the girl who bought the cigarette still hesitated, and then curled the corners of her mouth, revealing her neat sworn teeth.

"That's right, you see, your upper lip is shorter, which makes your smile much more charming." The man put his hands on his chest and said with an intoxicated expression.

"This smile is so beautiful, can you smile a few more times for me?" The man stretched out his hand as if to touch her face, but immediately sensed something and took it back, and then looked at the girl with a reluctant expression.

"Look, you really should laugh a few more times, do you like to laugh?" He narrowed his eyes, not hiding the appreciation in his eyes, and the **** of desire to possess.

"Director?" Outside the set, an assistant shouted at Scorsese, who was sitting in a special chair.

You know, Hughes should have reached out to touch the girl's calf to tease, and the line should have been: Look, I'd love to know what can make a beautiful woman like you happy. I mean, it's like you're standing here, right? I touch you with my hands, like this, with my fingertips - do you like it?

But now Sean has not only changed his actions, but also his lines, which is undoubtedly a little inappropriate in the eyes of the assistant. It's not that there are no actors who revise their lines during their performances, and some directors are also not so strict with their lines and are willing to let the actors play on their own, but these are excellent big-name directors and actors.

Only excellent actors know how to make the revised lines closer to the content of the shooting, and only excellent directors can control the scene, so that the actors will not lose control when they play on their own. Although Sean has been praised by many people for his acting skills and has been shortlisted for the Oscar for Best Actor, he has only been in the industry for more than three years after all, and as a person close to Scorsese, these assistants have seen too many good acting skills, so they naturally don't think he has the ability to control it.

However, to their surprise, Scorsese didn't say anything, just made a gesture to continue filming, and then stared more intently at a few people on the set. The assistants couldn't help but look at each other, and they all looked at the young man again, he really acted so well? Can Scorsese allow him to play freely?!

"Come on, don't be shy, laugh one more and show me your beauty, more beauty." Sean on the set continued to speak in a soft voice, with a smile and an indescribable charm that gave the impression that these words were sincere.

But then he took the girl's hand again, and there was a clear joke in his eyes, and when compared with the clothes and releases of the forties and fifties, the image of the playboy was still thorough.

Scorsese couldn't help but smile a little, and then nodded, there was no doubt that Sean's self-play was recognized by him. But immediately he frowned again, because the actress who played the cigarette girl was a little bad at this time, probably because he didn't expect Sean to change his lines, so he was a little dazed for a while, and he didn't know how to deal with it.

It's a shame. Scorsese muttered inwardly that if it was a more experienced actor playing against her, she should have shown that she was at a loss, and with a little excitement, wanting to accept the other party's compliment, but worried about being coaxed by the other party.

Well, it's just a small actor and can't be too demanding. Scorsese could only comfort himself with such thoughts, anyway, it was reasonable to show a blank look, and ...... This inside-out confusion can sometimes be convincing.

"Look, I just want to make you happy, I want to know everything about you, can you make me do that? Can you give me this chance? Sean continued at this time, his smile became more and more gentle, and with a little aggression, he really brought this playboy to life.

"I'll leave work in half an hour." Because the lines returned to the content specified in the script, the actress finally knew what step she had reached, and immediately smiled and said decently.

That's the end of the paragraph, and then Scorsese was the first to applaud: "Well done, Sean." ”

Since the director said so, everyone applauded, and Sean made a relieved gesture, and then raised his hand with a smile: "I'm very worried, Martin, if you think it's bad, then I'll fall into the abyss." ”

"Me too, but seeing you say your lines so freely, I suddenly thought it might be good, and I'm sure Martin would see it that way." Next to him, playing Hughes press spokesman Johnny? Meyer's Adam? Scott, as he interjected, gave the two of them a small hand.

"Why," Scorsese chuckled, "if it didn't work, I'd have stopped long ago." ”

"So, how many points do you give me for my performance, Martin?" Sean asked immediately, and made a look of hope.

"Well...... Scorsese pinched his chin and thought for a moment, "I'll give A- about Hughes, and I'll give A+ about Playboy!" ”

Laughter suddenly sounded all around, Sean couldn't help but roll his eyes, smiled bitterly and raised his hands helplessly, who said that Scorsese, who is known for his sternness on the set, can't joke?

Of course, this is also because he is in a really good mood, because Sean did not disappoint him. When he was in Long Beach before, he couldn't enter the play, and when he played in the factory, he was only decent, but he didn't expect to give him a surprise after starting the play in the hotel.

What should a playboy look like? Of course, he is good at coaxing women, he must be able to say nice things, and he must be good at observing words and feelings, even if it is the famous Howard? Hughes, too, can't escape this pattern.

If he is really a moody freak, no matter how rich he is, no matter how easy his personality arouses a woman's motherhood, he will not be favored by so many women.

The reason why Scorsese liked DiCaprio in the first place was that in addition to working with each other, they were more familiar with each other, and DiCaprio's ability to coax women was probably one of the reasons. It's a pity that it's not as good as Sean, look at those who have gossiped with him, which one is not older than him? These women with a certain amount of experience are still coaxed by him, Nicole? Kidman also dated him for a few months, not to mention other women.

Yes, Scorsese has asked someone to investigate Sean, since they want to cooperate, and it is the first time, they must always understand it clearly, and these gossips cannot be hidden in Hollywood. Of course, the truth and falsehood need to be distinguished by the person who collects the information.

"Patrick, tell everybody that we need to change the pace of filming, stop the camera at the aircraft factory, and now go all out on the hotel part." Scorsese called his new assistant director.

Originally, Jihua at the beginning was to finish a few shots in Long Beach after the camera was turned on, and he alternately filmed the party at the aircraft factory and the hotel in the studio.

This is because the two scenes are very long, including content from different periods, such as the scene where Hughes twice accepts new aircraft and the scene where large passenger planes are built on the aircraft factory. And at the hotel party, there are not only scenes where MGM borrowed the camera, but also with Juan? Tripp meeting and having dinner with Hepburn.

Basically, each scene takes at least two to three weeks, and the same type of scene is filmed for a long time, and the actors and crew get tired easily, so Scorsese simply swaps shots.

Anyway, these two scenes need to be set up in the studio, as long as you have a good amount with the producer, rent two studios next to each other, or simply rent a large studio, it is very convenient to shoot back and forth.

Now, though, Sean has given Scorsese a surprise, and the old man is naturally thinking about putting it to good use. To put it more simply, it is to keep him immersed in this atmosphere, although there are many scenes of hotel parties, but most of them are about romance, or it is a demonstration to Tripp of Pan America, which belongs to the story of the young and vigorous Hughes.

Since Sean is very good at this, let him continue to figure it out in this atmosphere and further integrate himself into Howard? Hughes went among them. Scorsese is still very confident, he has chatted with Sean a few times before turning on the film, and the other party's homework has been done a lot, and he has seen it in his eyes, coupled with the videotape that made him feel amazing before, he feels that he can shoot more perfectly.

In this regard, Sean's feeling is that it doesn't matter, he thinks that his preparation is sufficient, even if the state is not very good after the start of the film because of Kate and various reasons, but as the shooting deepens, he will definitely be able to fully show his strength. But it's not bad to be able to show it a little earlier, although this starts with that bit of true colors, but as long as you can create a Howard who has been recognized by countless people? Hughes, it's nothing.

So, after the crew quickly adjusted, they filmed along the timeline, and as Scorsese expected, Sean played very well, relatively speaking, the young and vigorous Hughes is indeed easier to play. Then, he meets an old friend, not Kate, but Jude? Lowe, who played Errol in "The Aviator"? Flynn, the smash hit in the thirties and forties, the notorious sexy male star.
