Johnny Depp feels that the recent filming is a bit abnormal.

Except for the first day when he repeated NG because he was not in the state, in the next few days, he found the feeling of Ikab Karan, and almost all the shots were one.

This surprised Miranda Richardson, who has not yet started filming, but has already entered the crew, and bluntly said that Depp's acting skills have been greatly improved.

- You must know that unlike Depp and Winona, who are still idols, this is an acting school that has been nominated for two Oscars.

Although she can only play Mrs. Fantasso in "Guillotine Valley" because of her lack of box office appeal, that is, the stepmother of the heroine Katrina - Depp is still convinced by her acting skills and acting skills.

In particular, Depp himself feels that his acting skills have improved.

"I'm literally possessed by Ruifan now!"

Maybe because of the tomb robbery some time ago, Depp couldn't help but think of Rivan Phoenix, who had the best acting skills but died young.

"I wonder if I have Ruifan's level now?"

After thinking about it, he shook his head.

It's not that you have low self-esteem or anything, it's purely because the role of Ikab Kalan is not very difficult, and it is not good to judge that the acting skills are actually not qualified.

- "Guillotine Valley" is a commercial film after all.

Moreover, Depp also understands that his filming has been smooth in recent days, which is also related to the relatively simple scenes filmed.

From the beginning of filming to the present, director Charlotte has been focusing on scenes related to corpses or autopsies, in his words:

"'Guillotine Valley' is both a detective mystery story and a fantasy horror story. When filming, shoot the reasoning part of reality first, and then slowly transition to the fantasy part, which will make it easier for everyone to get into the play. ”

Depp doesn't know if what Charlotte said is true, but it is undeniable that filming in this order does progress quickly.

Moreover, in order to make Depp more understand the feeling of reasoning, Charlotte also specially recommended to him "Tragedy on the Nile", "Murder on the Orient Express" and other mystery stories.

"Maybe you'll be able to play one of them in the future! After all, these two works of Agatha Christie have been adapted several times. ”

Depp likes these two films, although he doesn't see any connection to the story of "Guillotine Valley".

- I guess it's just a matter of feeling!

In fact, although the shooting in the last few days has been relatively smooth, Depp is not feeling too good.

There is no way, anyone who shoots footage related to autopsies and coffins all day long will feel panicked.

In particular, the corpses of the crew are particularly realistic.

On the first day of filming, Depp suspected that it was a real corpse.

Fortunately, later the assistant director Lao Gun relieved his suspicions:

"Although it is not impossible to rent some Jane Doo (nameless corpses) from the hospital to shoot, it costs a lot of money, and you may be harassed by the police, which is too troublesome! and-"

The old gun pointed at the "lifelike" corpse,

"Although the "corpse" made by the prop team is more time-consuming, there will definitely be no problems such as rotting and smelling like real corpses......"

- Well, that's to the point.

Although movies can give people an unusually real audio-visual experience, the sense of smell does not include it.

Therefore, if it is not necessary, the crew will not embarrass the noses of the actors when filming.

Like "The Shawshank Redemption" at the 67th Oscars that just ended, various regrets lost to "Forrest Gump", and there are the most direct examples in that movie.

- In that movie, the main character, Andy, once crawled out of a long, sewage-filled sewer in order to escape from prison.

If real sewers were used in filming, it is estimated that Tim Robbins, who plays Andy, will definitely strike no matter how professional he is.

After all, even if he can accept it psychologically, his nose can't stand it!

Fortunately, Hollywood's high-level artificial set technology solves this problem -

Remembering that the director's husband told him that the "brown object" covering the entire sewer in that shot was actually made of chocolate, and he could even eat it with a strange expression, Depp suddenly felt a little sick to his stomach.

Well, that's actually what prop crews have always done -

Plasma is actually corn syrup with coloring;

The brown excrement is chocolate puree;

The yellow one is butter......

Depp suddenly discovered that most Hollywood actors will go on a diet, especially reluctant to touch some high-sugar and high-fat desserts, which may not be just to maintain their figure......

At least, he heard that after filming "The Shawshank Redemption", Tim Robbins didn't plan to eat chocolate for a long time.

"I don't want to drink corn syrup anymore!"

After being sprayed in the face by artificial plasma made of corn syrup again, Depp made a similar decision in his heart.

No way, what he's filming now is a clip of Iqab Karan dissecting the body of widow Winship, in which director Charlotte playfully adds a shot of his blood splattered from his face as he was dissected.

For this reason, Charlotte also specially explained-

"Ikabu Karan is a fledgling academic, young man. He just knows how to perform autopsies, but he doesn't do it very often. It is very reasonable for such a novice to accidentally cut a blood vessel and be sprayed on the face. ”

Moreover, the story is set at the end of the eighteenth century, when dissection techniques were still very primitive, and it was normal to have corpses covered in blood. ”

Although his explanation seems reasonable, Depp still feels that he is just trying to spoof himself.

- Well, Depp also admits that this spoof shot will be interesting for the audience to see.

Actually, Depp also finds it interesting.

- If the person who was sprayed with blood was not himself.

In particular, in order to show surprise, when he was sprayed with plasma, he had to make a slightly funny expression to the camera.

This meant that at that moment, some of the plasma would be sprayed into his mouth......

Although the brain knew that it was actually corn syrup, in front of a very real "corpse", and then thinking about the story in the script, Depp still had a feeling that he had eaten the blood of the corpse.

What's more, in order to shoot the effect, the plasma must be sprayed on the face realistically, which means that this shot is very easy to NG-

After all, although an actor can control his facial expressions, it is somewhat difficult to combat his own stress response - when something is sprayed on the face, the person's first reaction must be to close his eyes and dodge.

This is not in line with the script.

Because in the script, the main character Iqab is concentrating, and he is dissecting the corpse with some fear.

At this time, Depp, who played him, needed to widen his eyes a little and make a surprised, helpless and somewhat funny expression.

After a few days in a row, Depp finally started repeating NG again here.

Everyone who filmed together also knew about the trouble here, so they didn't say anything, they just accompanied him to come back. And yet—

This also means that Depp has to be "shot" in the face by corn syrup repeatedly......

"I think I must have exceeded the sugar intake today!"

After this article was finally passed, Depp's expression was a little loveless.

What he got was the laughter of the entire crew.

This section was also recorded, and together with the previous NG shot, it was put into the film. ”

Charlotte whispered to photographer Addison Young.

PS1: "Food Story" is an animated movie, many people should have seen it, and it is quite interesting. PS2: In the latest "Murder on the Orient Express", there is indeed Depp, 3: I wish everyone a happy Lantern Festival. By the way, because there are more things today, the evening update may be late, maybe it will be more than nine o'clock, I'll do it as soon as possible!
