Chapter 784: Adapting the Script

"This will definitely become a classic of multi-line narrative films!"

In the screening room, Johnny Depp muttered to himself.

It's not that he didn't participate in the internal preview of the previous "Pirates of the Caribbean 2".

However, because Charlotte went over and over to revise, most of the main creative staff, including Depp, couldn't see what he modified over and over again.

- Everybody's busy!

Moreover, in Depp's opinion, the version of the first preview screening is actually quite good.

Therefore, he did not participate in the next few test screenings.

Because of this, now that he saw Charlotte's final satisfaction with the release version of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Soul Coffin" after several revisions, he was shocked all of a sudden.

"Phoenix, you've been with director Charlotte, you know how this movie happened to change so dramatically?"

He asked his friend Rifan Phoenix, who was sitting next to him.

- Of course, Rivan's external identity is Phoenix Reighton, the rising star who plays Will Turner.

- This is also the reason why Depp did not directly call him "Rivan".

Rivan shook his head, and he whispered to Depp,

"As a ghost, I often do things for him, but I don't follow him all the time—that's Alexis' job. ”

"Well, it seems that even if you become a ghost, there is still a difference between a man and a woman!"

Depp stuck out his tongue,

"So, as the man in the goblins, what do you think of that guy over there?"

- The one over there he was talking about was Jenny, who played Elizabeth Swan in the movie.

- that is, Alexis's sister in reality.

Because Charlotte's version of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series is a trilogy filmed, the three people who are the leading actors have been together for more than half a year, and they have experienced "shipwreck" together, and their friendship is quite good.

- Of course, that's Rivan's opinion.

In the eyes of Ruifan's good friend Depp, there is some "female love" between Ruifan and Jenny.

- That's why he said that to Rivan.

In this regard, Ruifan smiled bitterly.

Although Charlotte once told him that as long as he wanted, the other party could help him cross the gap between people and ghosts, and have a "ghost love".

But at the end of the day, Rivan doesn't feel like that's an emotionally oriented character.

And, neither is Jenny-

Ruifan, who has been in Hollywood both during his life and after his death, can see that this is a good girl, but she is very ambitious.

Just like those career-minded Hollywood actresses, Jenny may have a slight impression of him, but it will definitely not affect the development of her career.

And in Hollywood, where there are countless temptations and fewer gatherings and more separations, how long can such a good feeling be maintained?

Especially since Rivan himself is a ghost......

Anyway, after the filming of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series ended, Riven and Jenny didn't meet a few times in total.

They had neither the time nor the will to further develop and sublimate their hazy affection.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" needed all the crew to be promoted this time, then Rivan didn't know when he would be able to see Jenny again......

"Well, it's your own business after all!"

Seeing that his good friend looked like he was from the heart, Depp didn't say anything.

Then again, the way he looked when he faced Winona was probably a little more exaggerated - after all, the phrase "Winona forever" was still tattooed on his body.

"If it weren't for the fact that Director Charlotte helped pull the strings...... Wait!"

Depp suddenly felt that he had thought of a suitable candidate to help......

Compared with Depp, Lilian, the snake demon, is much more serious about watching the movie.

- She finally came.

Moreover, in order to avoid being harassed by tabloid reporters, she still used a spell to change her appearance slightly.

- Although it is not as good as Charlotte's evil god disguise technique, the demons also have a way to modify their appearance, but it is not long-lasting.

Just like now—

Because she was completely attracted to the story of the fast-paced, multi-line narrative of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2", the spells she cast had unwittingly failed.

Fortunately, the other people sitting next to her were also immersed in the movie and couldn't extricate themselves, and no one noticed the change in her appearance at all.

In particular, the film's appeal rises again when several storylines from the film finally come together and Captain Jack, Will Turner, and Commodore Nottington begin to compete for the box containing the heart of Captain Octopus-headed David Jones.

And when the Black Pearl finally faced the giant octopus-like monster of the North Sea, Charlotte's painstaking efforts in front of her to speed up the time set aside for the movie were finally used to the maximum extent-

This version of the Black Pearl's crew fighting against the North Sea Monster is far more visually sound than the version of Charlotte's original plane.

Charlotte made full use of the principle of relative lenses to shoot a large number of visually striking shots.

And many viewers in front of the big screen even had the illusion that the huge tentacles of the North Sea Giant Demon were rolling towards them.

"This deceptive sense of realism is like a spell!"

Lily the snake demon sighed in relief.

Of course, no matter how wonderful the story is, it will eventually come to an end -

After shooting explosives and wreaking havoc on the North Sea Monster, Captain Jack, who wanted to run away but returned instead, finally gave the order to abandon ship.

And he himself, however, was a rare hero, and decided to stay behind and face the North Sea Monster alone.

- Here, Charlotte finally gave up the original time and space where Elizabeth tricked Captain Jack with a kiss.

Some literary and artistic people may think that this is a manifestation of human nature, but in Charlotte's view, this is disgusting the audience.

Especially at the end of the film's final climax.

At this time, this kind of twist will give the impression that you have an appointment with a beautiful woman at a bar, and then you enter the hotel, and everything is ready, only to see that the other person's legs are bigger than you.

- It's a dog!

I'm afraid that's the only way to describe this feeling.

As a director closer to the audience, Charlotte is not prepared to do this kind of death-

He asks Will Turner and Elizabeth to find an opportunity to hint to Captain Jack at the end that they realize that Captain Octopus Head David Jones is not actually chasing the crew of the Black Pearl, but only Jack.

However, out of friendship, they chose to bear it with Jack.

And this friendship, in turn, affected Jack, making him a hero in the end and making the decision to sacrifice himself to save everyone.

And this is also in line with the Western tradition, the captain will always sink with the ship.

Therefore, the audience will only feel that at the end of the movie, the protagonist trio, who have been in constant dispute, finally understand each other again.

The personality of the characters is also sublimated at the last moment.

Then, the Black Pearl who lost Captain Jack and his party had a reliable reason to save Jack, who was captured at the end of the world......
