"I know you did it, I know you did it! I know you killed Dick! "On the small pier in Venice, a blonde woman in deep clothes is carrying a man with a glove hanging with a crying voice.

Although there were many people sitting outside the small open-air café on the dock, none of them came out to help, as for Weishenme, just look at the people holding up cameras, spotlights, and microphone booms around them.

“Cut！” With the director's voice, the crew paused, and looking at his frowning brow, he knew that he was not satisfied with the shooting.

But he didn't say anything more, just walked over and asked the man who had been beaten by the woman before, "How are you, Sean?" ”

"No problem, Mr. Minghella," Sean took a deep breath, "and while some emotions are fleeting and difficult to capture after being missed, we can compensate for quality with quantity, and as long as I continue, I should be able to get that feeling back." ”

"Okay." Minghella, who had been watching him for a long time, finally nodded, then turned around and beckoned, "Let's come again." ”

The scene here would have been very simple, Dick's father learned part of his son through various means, and then was misled by Ripley into thinking that he had committed suicide by enlarging a married woman's belly and causing her to commit suicide, as well as murdering Freddy, who knew about it. So, in order to cover up the scandal, the grieving father gave Ripley a large sum of money, and then took Maggie back to the United States.

Ripley's ability to imitate and learn, his quick wit, and his luck, or the author's favor, blinded everyone except Maggie. A woman's intuition is terrible, but unfortunately, even if she guesses the truth, there is no evidence, and no one around her believes it. So, when they boarded the dinghy at the dock and prepared to go to the port to return home, they finally couldn't help but wave their gloves and hit Ripley.

The focus here should obviously be on Maggie, and Minghella did the same, but during a shoot, he observed everyone all the time, and found that Sean's emotions at that time were unusually wonderful. The panic of the moment after being found by Maggie, the happiness of Dick's father after taking Maggie away, and the subsequent composure and the slight panic hidden in it, etc., were quite in place, which surprised Minghella very much.

So, after calling a halt, he exchanged opinions with the photographer and art director, and decided to give Sean's facial expression a close-up here. However, as Sean just said, emotions are difficult to replicate 100%, especially this unintentional state, so it was shot more than ten times, and Minghella didn't get what he wanted.

He also thought about giving up, which is not very critical, although it would be more perfect with this shot, but Sean chose to persevere. So Minghella went on again, the young man he had chosen for his gamble had never disappointed him, and he believed it wouldn't be this time.

So the crew was on the small pier in Venice, over and over again, and shot so many shots repeatedly. No one said much, anyway, when you are tired, you take a break, and constantly shoot for one or several shots to achieve the best is a common thing in Hollywood, such as William, who was nominated for 12 Oscars for Best Director and won 3 times in the Golden Age? Wheeler is known as the Wheeler of 99 times.

It is said that every time he directs, most of the shots have to be shot forty or fifty times before they pass, Betty? Davis also quarreled with him about this. Betty has always been famous in Hollywood for her good acting skills and quick filming, and many scenes can be passed at one time, but when she works with Wheeler, no matter how she acts, Wheeler's words will always be: do it again.

Betty was also a very character female star in Hollywood at the time, and she felt that this was simply an insult to herself, so Zuihou couldn't help but get angry: What do I have to do?

As a result, Wheeler shrugged: It's good to be like that, do it again.

Other than that, Audrey? Hepburn was also made to cry like this by him when he was filming "Roman Holiday", Humphrey? Bogart also became popular when he collaborated with him in "Critical Hour". But I have to admit that repeated shooting is really useful, and many shots with characteristics and style may not be noticed when shooting, but they are unearthed during post-production editing. And there are so many shots, there are always one or two that are outstanding, just as Sean said that quantitative change leads to qualitative change.

So, after Gwyneth struck Sean for the thirty-fourth time with her gloves, Minghella finally caught what she wanted. After Sean was beaten, he peeked into the dinghy while reaching out to arrange his hair, and the complicated look he showed at that moment was so expressive that Minghella couldn't help but shout hello on the spot.

However, although the mission was completed, it still caused a little trouble. After the shooting, Sean kept covering his forehead with his hands, and someone stepped forward to help check it only to find that some skin was scratched at the corners of his eyebrows, and some blood was oozing.

There was no doubt that it was Gwyneth's leather gloves that caused it, because to create a realistic effect, Minghella asked her to really hit it during the shoot, and it didn't hurt if it fell on her body anyway, and Sean didn't have a problem. It should have been fine, but who let her fight for so long? Quantitative change causes qualitative change.

"I'm fine." In the face of everyone's inquiries, Sean replied, "It's just a little bit of skin, and it will be haode soon." ”

But there are still a lot of people who come to ask, which also shows that he is very popular in the crew, and even Gwyneth has come over.

"I'm so sorry, Sean," she said, looking a little cramped, "I'm just ......"

"It's okay, Gwynnie, it's just a trifle, everyone gets it wrong, doesn't it?" Sean preemptively said.

“xiexie。” Gwyneth breathed a sigh of relief and turned away.

She seems to have something on her mind, but it has nothing to do with Sean, and during the two months of filming, he and Gwyneth were the least talkative among the actors. Although Sean also wants to have a good relationship with her, after all, Gwyneth was born in a family of actors, and has a big director as her godfather, and now she is a new Oscar queen, and she is also very beautiful and temperamental. But the problem is that most of the time, the people leave the crew after filming, and the same is true when they come to Italy, and now it is easy for Sean to associate Kate, so he can only give up.

After filming two more shots, today's scene is over, I went back to the hotel to rest for a while, and went to the restaurant for dinner, Sean wanted to go out for a walk. Originally, he wanted to call Galen together, but he didn't expect to be a step slower, this guy had already sorted out with a big help, which was really frustrating, so Zuihou he had to walk a few laps nearby.

"A glass of whiskey." After sitting down at the bar and talking to the waiter, Sean looked at the bar.

Italian bars are not too different from American bars, with bars, small tables, chairs or sofas, as well as stages and music that Sean had seen when he filmed Dick playing the saxophone. Although he came to the bar alone, he was still in a good mood, and even wondered if he could meet an Italian girl.

Unexpectedly, he looked around, but he saw a familiar figure, where the bar was turned, Gwyneth was talking to a man, shaking her head repeatedly, smiling very reluctantly, obviously very unhappy.

After thinking about it, after the bartender brought the whiskey, Sean walked over anyway, sat down next to Gwyneth, and said in an apologetic tone, "Sorry, I'm late." ”

Gwyneth was stunned for a moment, and then showed a look of surprise and understanding: "You're finally here, Sean, I've been waiting for you for a long time." ”

She was not stingy with her smile at all, it was very sweet and charming, which made Sean stunned.

Of course, he didn't show it, and looked at the man who was pestering her with an inquiring expression: "Is there something wrong with you, sir?" ”

"I want to treat this young lady to a drink...... Who are you? The mustachioed man said in Italian, with a tone of dissatisfaction.

"I'm sorry, sir, I'm her boyfriend and we're dating, please don't bother us, okay?" Sean immediately replied unceremoniously in Italian.

The guy was stunned, obviously not expecting Sean to speak Italian, and immediately muttered and walked away.

"What is he talking about?" When the other party was far away, Gwyneth asked in a low voice.

"He wants to ask you for a drink, and then I say I'm your boyfriend, we're dating, and let him go away." Sean said.

"Boyfriend?" Gwyneth raised an eyebrow.

"I'm sorry, I just thought it would make him go a little faster." Sean was very calm.

"Xiexie you, Sean." Gwyneth laughed again, holding up the still-moving Martini in her hand, "I didn't expect your Italian to be so good." ”

As soon as I heard it, I knew that she didn't communicate much in the crew, and now who doesn't know that he speaks Italian well? But Sean didn't say anything, raised the whiskey in his hand, then took a sip, and then took a breath with wide eyes.

"Haven't you ever drunk whiskey?" Seeing it in her eyes, Gwyneth couldn't help but smile.

"I've drunk it secretly before, but it's very rare, and it's ...... I've never tried European whisky either. After that taste had passed, Sean sighed gloomily.

Gwyneth didn't speak, just looked at him, a complicated glint flashed in her eyes, and then raised her glass again: "Can you have a few drinks with me?" ”

Sean, who sensed something, was slightly stunned, but then nodded: "It's an honor." ”

The two immediately chatted, and they talked a few words about any topic, but Gwyneth seemed a little absent-minded.

"By the way, I haven't congratulated you on winning the Oscar for Best Actress, which is an honor that many actresses dream of." Sean said suddenly with the thought of something.

“xiexie。” Gwyneth smiled, but forcefully.

"What's wrong?" Sean immediately asked, "Did something happen?" ”

"Hmm......" Gwyneth made a few meaningless gestures, and finally looked up, looking at Sean with gray-green eyes, "Have you seen that movie I starred in?" ”

"Of course." Sean nodded, "After taking over the role of Ripley, I have seen all the movies starring the people I want to work with, and "Shakespeare in Love" is naturally among them. ”

"Have you seen them all?" An inexplicable glint flashed in Gwyneth's eyes, "So...... What do you think of my performance? ”
