Chapter 377: True and False

"Stop! This one is over! ”

In the studio, Nolan stood up from behind the director's monitor, walked towards the set, and said to the heroine, "Maggie, thank you for your performance, you are very important to us. ”

Everyone on the crew, including Martin, applauded Maggie Gyllenhill.

Because all the scenes of the heroine have been filmed, it is officially offline today.

seems to be infected by the crew's recent good atmosphere, Maggie Gyllenshire held her face with both hands, gently wiped her tearful eyes, and kept saying to the surroundings: "Thank you, thank you, everyone......"

Emma Thomas went over with a box, hugged Maggie, and shoved it into her hands: "You made a perfect show for the crew. ”

Maggie opened the box, which contained the prop necklace that Rachel had left for Batman, and she took it out and put it on: "This is the most important moment of my career as an actor!" ”

Nolan came over to shake hands with her, and after a few polite words, quietly withdrew to the periphery.

The screenwriter had a particularly keen sense of smell, and without waiting for the director to summon him, he had already automatically found him.

Nolan was just about to speak, when he noticed Maggie Gyllenshill walking towards Martin, and immediately raised his hand to ask the screenwriter to wait a little.

Maggie came to the actor's rest, found Martin, and said, "I was going to ask the crew for a souvenir, but the crew doesn't have it now, saying you might have it here." ”

Martin was surprised: "What souvenir?" ”

Maggie gestured and said, "The clown's handmade statue, the one you gave to Xibi that day, it looks very good, and the crew didn't prepare it." ”

"Well said." Martin waved at Bruce.

Bruce opened the bag he was carrying, took out the long gift box, and handed it to Martin.

Martin handed Maggie the hand-carved version. ”

Maggie took it, deliberately opened it and looked at it, the chic shape was indeed extraordinary, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Martin." ”

Martin smiled: "You're welcome. ”

Soon, Maggie Gyllenhill left the studio satisfied.

Nolan then said to the screenwriter: "The heroine Maggie Gyllenshill, who plays Rachel, was in love with Martin for a while during the filming, but she didn't get a response, and before leaving the crew, she asked Martin for a special clown carving as a commemorative ......."

A gossip scandal that is not big or small was born under the screenwriter's pen, and it is still the kind that has been officially certified.

Morgan Freeman has always been in the position of a bystander, and Nolan has added a new type of director to Hollywood: the hype director.

The British director has as many ideas for marketing as he does for films.

On the other hand, Martin pondered, why is the handmade clown statue always popular with ladies?

He has a feeling that if the film hits the box office, this merch may sell well.

The crew sent Maggie Gyllenhill away, and Morgan Freeman a few days later.

Martin got along well with the old man and gave Freeman a souvenir.

Freeman waved his hand: "I'm a man, so I don't want this." ”

Martin was surprised: "It has nothing to do with men and women. ”

Freeman thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll take it." ”

The two may even work together.

Freeman also gave Martin a gift in return, a Nutcracker that he had made himself.

Martin solemnly put it away, and turned back to build a glass display case, and put things like souvenirs and the like for the exhibition.

Before Freeman left the studio, he took a look at director Nolan and noticed that Nolan was whispering to the screenwriter again.

What is written, certainly related to him, but if it does not damage his reputation, Morgan Freeman does not bother to care.

It's just very curious what gossip Nolan has written about him.

…………

In the summer, the weather is getting hotter and hotter.

Under the bright sunshine, the crew left Atlanta and arrived in the southern city of Concord.

Far from the populated area, a large abandoned candy processing factory has been transformed into a hospital with nothing to show for itself under the modification of the construction team hired by the crew.

The convoy was parked in a safe area outside the processing plant.

Martin gets out of the car and gets into the makeup trailer to make up.

Nolan commanded the crew to set up the scene, and a number of experienced pyrotechnicians in the pyrotechnic team entered several key areas of the hospital to lay special explosives, and prepared to set off a king-size fireworks.

An ambulance converted from a scrapped vehicle was towed to a parking lot near the hospital building.

In addition, there are a number of real ambulances and fire trucks on the periphery, and the relevant professionals are on standby to prevent accidents.

In the makeup trailer, Martin finished applying oil paint, put on a white nurse's uniform, and put on a nurse's hat.

When the stylist left, Bruce, who was sitting on the side, said: "Put on another pair of stockings, put on a pair of prostheses, and you can go out on the street to seduce the pervert." ”

Martin asked, "Do you want to go?" I can pay to help you find the best stylist. ”

He went further: "Otherwise, I'll charter a business jet and send you directly to Thailand, and all your worries will be solved at once, and you won't be bothered by Kim and Kohler's problems again." ”

"I decide." Bruce has an indomitable momentum: "For the sake of Kohler, I'm going to shoot a video with Kim." ”

Martin nodded: "Good luck, Lao Bu." ”

Bruce smiled, "Maybe it's a special fate that made me meet them." ”

At this time, there was a knock on the trailer door from the outside, and Bruce went over to open it, and an assistant director showed up and said, "Martin, get ready to go to the set." ”

Martin got up and got out of the makeup trailer and followed him to the place where the camera was set up.

Nolan is waiting for him here.

Bruce didn't stop when he came over, and went all the way to the hospital set to check it out in advance.

Nolan took off his headphones, hung them around his neck, pointed to the large building that was originally brick-red but has now been transformed into hospital white, and said, "This scene only has one chance to explode, you must get into the state quickly." ”

Martin pulled the nurse's hat on his head and said, "I'll go over and get familiar with the next position in a moment." ”

Nolan beckoned to him, "Let's go, let's go together." ”

The two came to the entrance of the hospital building together and walked along the paved road in the direction where the crew set up IMAX cameras.

Nolan said as he walked: "You come from the door, all the way to here, remember this pavement line on the ground, this is the safety line set by the pyrotechnic team, after crossing here, you press the detonator." ”

Martin asked, "I controlled the explosion?" ”

Nolan shook his head directly: "Of course not, such a major detonation is the responsibility of professionals!" They see that you press the detonator, it will officially detonate, and the explosion is divided into two phases, with a short interruption in between, and it is also written in the script that the remote control is out of order......"

Martin understood: "Create drama. ”

Nolan laughed, "That's right. ”

The Hollywood film industry process is relatively rigorous, especially this kind of super-large-scale crew, which is extremely rigorous when it comes to the shooting of dangerous scenes such as explosions.

The original script Martin got was just the Joker blowing up the hospital where Harvey Dent was injured.

But in the latest version, in the gap between explosions and explosions, a clown scene has been added.

Nolan returns to the IMAX camera.

Martin went back and forth, getting acquainted with the move many times.

Half an hour later, the pyrotechnics team inspected the various facilities for the last time, notified the director Nolan through the headset, and with Nolan's order, the shooting officially began.

Martin, dressed in a nurse's suit, staggered over from the entrance of the hospital, took off his white nurse's hat halfway, threw it on the side of the road, and took out a remote control from the pocket of his nurse's uniform.

Following the move, he quickly passed the safety line and pressed the remote control.

There was a loud bang, and the building behind Martin was blown down a corner.

He looked back, looked at the remote control in his hand again, and couldn't help but slap it a few times.

This time, explosions rang out incessantly, and huge buildings rumbled and collapsed.

Martin quickened his pace and ran to the front, and when he saw Nolan's side, he gestured and quickly turned behind the security wall.

The hospital building completely collapsed and became a pile of rubble, with smoke and dust wafting everywhere.

Several cameras are still filming, faithfully recording the entire process of blowing up the building.

It took a long time for the set to really fall silent.

Nolan announced through a megaphone that the shot was successfully completed.

Martin came to the director's seat, looked at the ruins with his hands on his hips, and shook his head slightly.

Nolan said: "It's an abandoned building, don't stress too much. ”

"No, I'm not stressed." Martin said calmly: "If it explodes at night, what a brilliant firework it will be." ”

Nolan turned his head to look at Martin, and at this moment, inspiration exploded, and he beckoned the screenwriter to write a rumored tidbit in front of Martin.

"This is a rumor." Nolan admonished first, and then said: "When filming the hospital filming scene, Martin pressed the remote control and found that the explosion had stopped as soon as it started, as if something had happened. ”

Martin knew that everything in this scene was set up.

It turns out that many rumors may have been deliberately released by the crew.

Nolan's words continued: "Martin knew that the blasting scene was not easy to reshoot, so he played freely and slapped the remote control hard, and the connection that might not have good contact was filmed by him, and the blasting returned to normal!" Martin's impromptu performance saved the huge investment in this scene. ”

The screenwriter was flying like a pen, and while writing, he secretly looked at Martin, and said in his heart in front of the main owner, is it okay to make it up like this?

Martin said at this time: "Director, a very wonderful scene, it is very enjoyable to act. ”

The more Nolan looked at Martin, the more he felt that he was pleasing to the eye, not only cooperating with the crew, but also understanding his own intentions, which was 10,000 times more worry-free than Bell.

That's the type of actor he likes.

"It's all anecdotal tidbits." Nolan advised in advance: "In the future, when the film is promoted, if a media reporter asks about relevant news, you can remain silent or give an ambiguous answer." ”

Martin replied, "I will." ”

The scene was successfully completed, and the crew was immediately withdrawn to Atlanta.

Before he reached the city, Martin was notified that Nicholson and Leonardo were coming to visit the class.
