The trees on both sides of the old streets are always falling yellow leaves inadvertently, and entering Philadelphia in autumn already makes people feel the slightest coolness.

David? Finch stood in front of an old apartment, directing the crew to set up and set up the cameras, this was his first time in charge of the film, and he was naturally cautious in some respects, although he did not say everything himself, but he was also very strict about every detail.

"Amy!" David? Finch called out to the assistant director, "What about the actors?" Why hasn't it arrived yet? Didn't the actor let me shoot the empty streets? ”

"David, don't worry." The assistant director hurriedly explained, "I just talked to Al? Mr. Pacino is on the phone, and he will be there shortly, but we are sent to pick up Nicole? Miss Kidman and Ryan? Mr. Jenkins' car broke down on the road, and now they have called a taxi and are heading this way. ”

"Damn it!" David? Finch cursed in a low voice, it was really unlucky to encounter this kind of thing before the camera was turned on, and he hadn't seen an actor who played the little boy until now, I don't know Harvey? What Weinstein is doing, I hope that kid will be as good as he says, no! As long as he has half of what he says, he will be satisfied.

"Coming, coming, it's them." The assistant director pointed to a taxi parked on the side of the road.

David? Finch hurriedly looked over, and the first thing that caught his eye was a tall and cold girl, who was very tall and very beautiful, but the next moment, he was attracted by the boy she was leading.

The thin and thin body seemed to fall down as soon as the wind blew, the light brown hair was unkempt and covered a somewhat pale face, and there was a strong and indescribable temperament under the quiet appearance, especially in the sky-blue eyes, which flashed from time to time with the brilliance of insight into everything.

That's right! He's Cole! With just one glance, the boy's appearance completely coincided with the outline of Cole in his mind, although I don't know how his acting skills are, but in terms of appearance, there is no more suitable than him.

All right! Harvey? Although Weinstein was a bit of a philistine, he finally did not disappoint him in the selection of actors.

"Nicole, is this the Old Town of Philadelphia? It does look ancient. Ryan's eyes roamed around curiously, such an old house, if it had been placed in the same place where he was in his previous life, would have been forcibly demolished and sold.

"yes, it's said to be one of the oldest urban areas in the country."

But the answer was Pie? Kinsley, a standard American, knows more about the history of Philadelphia than she does with Nicole.

Holding Nicole? Kidman's hand, from the path in the middle of the low green belt, walked to the apartment, and the assistant director, who had seen them, quickly gave an introduction to both parties.

"Hello, Director Finch. It's a pleasure to meet you, you can call me Ryan. Ryan did an impeccable job of etiquette, as Nicole said, he was the most perfect little gentleman for as long as he wanted, and his actions immediately won the favor of Mr. Director, "Well, Ryan, it's nice to know you just as well." ”

As the director in charge of the director, he naturally knows who the script comes from, although the script is about to be rotted by him, but at this time he is still amazed to see the main master, such an excellent story is actually from the hands of a child under the age of ten, it is unbelievable, can it be said that the children of the post-80s generation are so perverted?

After greeting the crew, Ryan was taken into the dressing room, because it was the first time to shoot a movie, he couldn't help but be a little curious about everything, but fortunately, he still knew what he was here for, and this was not a school and home where he could be reckless, forcibly suppressing his temperament, and letting the female makeup artist smear on his face.

Hell, I'm a boy, what's the deal with this greased and whitewashed. Ryan looked at the increasingly pale face in the mirror and muttered to himself.

"Hello Mr. Pacino!"

At the door of the makeshift dressing room, an assistant's voice suddenly came.

"Al? Pacino? "Ryan knew who he was going to play with some time ago, and now it's only 89 years, unless Harvey? Weinstein's head is in water, otherwise he would never have chosen Bruce? Willis.

It's not ten years from now, and Mr. Willis is a veritable facial paralysis.

But he never expected that the big fat man would choose Al? Pacino came to be the leading actor, well, now Al is actually at a low point in his career, and this movie needs an actor-level actor to increase its box office appeal, and it is estimated that this is how the two sides hit it off.

The moment the makeup artist finished, Ryan jumped up from his chair, took out the autograph book and pen from his backpack with lightning speed, and handed them to Al? In front of Pacino.

"Al? Mr. Pacino, can you sign a name for me? Ryan's eyes widened, and with an idol-like gaze, he looked at the middle-aged man who was acting whatever he wanted.

"No problem, you're ......"

"Ryan, Ryan? Jenkins, the lonely little boy you want to unleash and help in this movie. ”

"Okay, Ryan, you can call me Al." is worthy of being a famous old drama bone, and that affinity naturally exudes.

"Ryan, I wish you eternal health and happiness." Al? Pacino wrote a greeting after the autograph, and Ryan smiled happily, as if he was really happy to get the idol's autograph, "Xiexie, Al, it's great to be able to play with you." ”

Perhaps it was the advantage of his age, or perhaps the positive and cheerful personality he showed, Ryan didn't spend much effort to win over Al? Pacino's favor, when he walked out of the dressing room after changing into the American elementary school uniform, the two had already chatted and laughed, and Ryan also took the opportunity to ask for a few words about acting.

The first thing to shoot is Al? In the footage of the psychiatrist played by Pacino, Ryan also saw what actor-level acting is, but after a few simple test shots, Al quickly found his state.

“Cut！ Very good! "David? Finch clapped his hands vigorously and encouraged everyone on the crew, "Take a ten-minute break." ”

The shot just took of the psychiatrist Malcolm walking down the street, and although the autumn in Philadelphia was already a little cooler, the shape of Al trench coat and scarf was still sweaty after the filming was completed.

"Nervous, Ryan?" Nicole took the boy's hand and gently rubbed his palm with her thumb, trying to soothe him as Ryan was going to be on the scene in person for the next shot.

"Not nervous." Ryan denied it without even thinking about it, but after meeting Nicole's knowing gaze, he had to let out a long breath, "Okay, I'll admit, I'm a little nervous, but it's normal, isn't it?" Nicole, were you nervous when you first filmed? ”

"Of course. I was so nervous that I forgot my lines. Nicole laughed and said, "A good suggestion for you, you can imagine everyone in the room to be stones, that would be much better." ”

"Can it be used as a potato? Or onions and tomatoes? ”

Maybe it's because he doesn't have confidence in him, or maybe he wants to go from easy to difficult, Ryan's first scene is when Cole walks out of the apartment, locks the door and leaves, it's very simple, isn't it?

“Cut！ It's over. ”

It was only two test shots, and one official shooting, and this shot passed, of course, it wasn't that Ryan's acting skills exploded as soon as he came up, but it was a blurry long shot, and what he had to do was too simple, open the door, and carefully observe left and right.

But then there was big trouble, a close-up shot of Ryan who needed to show a cautious, cautious, and somewhat cringing demeanor after putting on a pair of eyes.

“Cut！ Ryan, relax, and have a natural expression. ”

“Cut！ Ryan, you're too stiff.? ”

“Cut！ Ryan, don't look at the camera lens. ”

“……”

This time it was even more exaggerated, Ryan looked at the glasses that fell under his feet and showed a wry smile, fortunately David? Fincher not James? Cameron, otherwise ......

David? Finch also frowned, he has many years of experience in shooting commercials and MTV, naturally knows how difficult it is to let a child find the state of acting, before filming, he also talked to him, from the conversation between the two, he can see that this is a smart and precocious child, the heart that is carried can't help but put back half of it, but I didn't expect that more than half an hour has passed, and the boy still hasn't made any progress.

"Nicole, do you want to go over and comfort Ryan?" Send? Kinsley was worried.

"No, Ryan is stronger than anyone else." Nicole? Kidman shook his head slowly but firmly, but no one could see the worried and distressed look on his face, "Since he has chosen this path, he has to face it himself." ”

Ryan clenched his fists hard, and even his arms trembled slightly, and when he really did it, he found that some things were far more difficult than he imagined, such as the oolong incident some time ago, such as today's shooting.

“Cut！” After another call to stop after the break, David? Finch walked over and whispered, "Ryan, do you know what your problem is?" ”

"About a third of it was because of my sudden distraction, another third because of my stiffness and shaking, and the remaining third because I couldn't help but look at the camera lens."

Out of David? Fincher expected that Ryan knew exactly what his problem was, and he patted the boy's arm, "Is there anything I need help with?" ”

"Can you give me ten minutes? I need to be alone for a while. Ryan first gave Nicole in the distance a reassuring look, and then looked at Mr. Director expectantly, "Trust me, David." I can solve these problems myself. ”

Ryan's words and expression gave him inexplicable confidence, David? Finch nodded, "Good! Take a 10-minute break! ”

"Obviously, I need a book of self-cultivation as an actor." Before Ryan opened the door and entered the apartment, he said a word to David? Vinci felt inexplicable words.
