Chapter 529: An Accident Happened
The chaotic gunfire subsided, and the crew finished filming another shootout scene, and Martin's pistol was handed to Bruce.
After waiting a little for a while, they met Mene to prepare for lunch.
Nolan came over and said, "Let's go, together." ”
Martin followed him to a nearby restaurant and asked as he walked, "I just watched the latest shooting plan, and my scenes are all over today?" “
Nolan emphasized: "It's a Los Angeles scene. He asked Martin, "Do you have any other trips?" ”
Martin received another invitation yesterday: "Tom Cruise asked me to talk about something. ”
Nolan didn't ask again, and the topic turned back to the action scene being filmed: "The scenes in Canada are all filmed on the snowy mountains, can you ski?" ”
Martin nodded: "I can skate, I have practiced before, and I am not proficient." ”
He once worked as a martial artist in a red-themed movie, and there were many skiing scenes.
Bruce followed, waiting for Nolan to go farther away, and deliberately muttered to Mene, "Our boss is a typical example of a simple mind and well-developed limbs. ”
The group entered the restaurant to eat.
The crew chartered the entire restaurant, where lunch and dinner were settled during filming, and Martin and Nolan came in, which attracted a lot of attention.
Claesson, who worked as an assistant set decorator, quickly finished lunch as usual and left the restaurant with two colleagues.
Two colleagues with big bellies found a place to rest in the shade.
Claeson has had lunch these days and will take a walk near the street that the crew has blocked.
There are many people in the crew who do this, and he is not conspicuous at all.
Clayson grabbed his pants pockets with both hands and walked close to the alley where the props crew was located, because the crew used real guns to shoot, even during meals, the props crew would leave someone to guard.
But the man who guarded it would sit in a chair and sleep at this time of day.
Claessen has seen it several times.
This time was no exception, in the middle of the two vans of the props team, the guy on duty was sitting on a recliner, his eyes covered with sunglasses, and he seemed to be performing his duties, but in fact he was already asleep.
Many crews in Hollywood are not particularly strict in the management of various departments, and there have been many accidents caused by carelessness and negligence.
Claessen passed by as he had done the other day, and everyone in the neighborhood had gone to eat, but there was no one else here.
His eyes fell on a cabinet and coughed softly.
The guy on duty is unresponsive and probably goes to a nightclub every night.
Claeson took out a pair of gloves and put them on, dodged to the back of the van, folded the workbench and placed it next to the car, and opened half of the rear door to reveal the containers inside.
The most basic professional ethics of the props team are still there, and the guns and magazines, as well as the empty ammunition boxes, are all stored in the container, not on the workbench.
But the safety lock of the container was not locked at all.
After this door is locked, it is a bit troublesome to open it again to match the code.
The Hollywood crew that Claison has stayed in is basically open all day as long as it is turned on in the morning.
He is a set decorator, dexterous and quick, gently opening the cabinet door and seeing the guns used by the main characters.
The guns and magazines were all disassembled, and each magazine was pressed with empty cartridges.
The five pistols in the room were all M9s, and Claeson couldn't be sure which one was Martin's gun.
He was only an assistant set set, and it was difficult to get access to the main actors on the set.
Time did not allow him to stay longer, so he took a magazine down, pushed off the six hollow bullets inside, took out the three bullets he brought and loaded them, and pressed three hollow bullets on the top, the magazine was carefully put back, and the cabinet was restored to its original state.
Claeson quickly looked around to make sure there was no one around, and made his way through the long alleyway and turned into the unblocked street on the other side of the crew.
After walking some distance, he carefully took off his gloves, the downtown facilities were old, some roadside sewer entrance fences were damaged, and gloves and blank bullets were thrown into different sewers.
Claessen can be sure that no one saw him do all this.
With his hands in his pockets, he walked leisurely as he had done at noon in the past few days, and returned to the area where the set team was located.
The crew's lunch break is over, and filming is about to begin.
Martin's crew, Bruce has always been named in the props group.
Before the other actors came over, Lao Bu turned into the alley where the props team was located and checked the firearms used for filming.
"Aren't you too troublesome? Still can't trust us? “
A famous prop master complained: "We have been guarding these guns, and there will be no problems." ”
Bruce said, "Responsibility, understand." ”
The prop master with sunglasses said, "We understand you, who understands us?" He couldn't help but say more: "Lao Bu, do you have persecution paranoia?" “
Not to mention, these two bastards really have.
Brewster explained: "You don't remember, we killed a Russian spy last time, think about it, that's second only to the United States, you are still working hard in Hollywood, and the KGB's reputation has been forgotten?" ”
The two complaining prop masters immediately stopped talking, polar bears are too scary, and they can't be too careful.
Bruce checked the spear first, exited all the empty cartridges in the magazine, and then pressed it in, making sure that every bullet was fine.
Because the actors who use these firearms have to shoot at Martin during the filming of the meeting.
Next, the pistol was examined.
Bruce had just picked up Martin's M9 when British actor Tom Hardy came over to get the weapon.
The pistols were all the same, and he picked up an M9 in his hand.
Bruce reminded, "Wait until I'm done." ”
Tom Hardy didn't dare to scare Martin, but he didn't care about Martin's followers, sneered twice, and said: "Don't take yourself too seriously, no one wants your and your master's life all day long." ”
Bruce turned to look at him.
Tom Hardy had a ruffian, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Am I not right?" Well? ”
Bruce, who had just overrun the British with a mortar, said, "Take care of your foul mouth." ”
"Hehe......" Tom Hardy also knew that the other party was not easy to mess with, so he restrained a little, grabbed a magazine from the cabinet casually, and unloaded the bullet outside: "Look at it, prop bombs, prop bombs, or prop bombs!" ”
He unloaded three bullets in a row and placed them in front of Bruce: "Do you see clearly?" ”
The prop master wearing sunglasses hurriedly stopped between the two and said, "The crew is going to start filming soon, don't delay the time." ”
Tom Hardy pressed the blank round back into the magazine, stuffed it into the pistol, didn't look at Bruce at all, turned around and left.
The other party wouldn't be filming the same scene as Martin today, so Bruce didn't say anything more, carefully examining the other firearms and magazines.
Other actors came over one after another to get their guns.
Bruce gave Mene a pistol, took Martin's one, and went back to the set together.
Mene asked, "You got into a conflict with Tom Hardy?" ”
Bruce was surprised: "It spread so quickly? ”
Mene said, "That guy, you're telling people that you and I are slaves, and Martin is our slave master. ”
Bruce frowned slightly and said, "The homemade bazooka I remember made by Nicholson is still there, and it is necessary to bring the crew tomorrow." ”
Mene's eyes lit up: "Then light the fuse again, and the rockets will ...... along the bazooka."
Bruce nodded: "This is the way civilized people do it!" To deal with English gentlemen, it is necessary to use the methods of civilized people. ”
Mene said, "Be sure to call me." ”
On set, Bruce handed the gun to Martin.
Tom, the action director, came over and talked to Martin about the next action scene.
The dream scene filmed in Los Angeles was split into two parts, Martin and Alan Page on the one hand, and Mene on the other with the others.
In the afternoon, Mane took Ken Watanabe and Tom Hardy to kidnap Cillian Murphy and then shoot part of the shootout with the Dream Guards.
Martin will have nothing to do, just warm up.
Hooded Alan Peggy came over and said, "That Tom Hardy is like a-stirring stick, spreading rumors everywhere. ”
Martin nodded: "I heard you, leave him alone." ”
The scene reporter went to the camera to play the board, and the crew remained quiet.
Martin and Alan Page also stopped talking.
As filming began, the sound of semi-automatic rifle firing was the first to sound, and a camera assistant of the crew held Steadicam to shoot in hand.
In the scarred taxi, Tom Hardy opened the door, jumped out of the car, held the gun in both hands, and with the help of the taxi's cover, pulled the trigger.
There were three gunshots in a row, and one gunman went down as planned.
Tom Hardy immediately turned the muzzle of the gun and fired again.
A lot of the shootout scenes have to be done by post-editing, and there is no need for the actors to aim, and Tom Hardy turns a little too much and pulls the trigger again.
Bang! Bang –
The camera assistant who was filming at Steadicam saw the camera in front of him explode and black debris flew up.
At this time, he heard a third gunshot, and suddenly his right hand lost strength, and then there was a sharp pain in his shoulder, and the camera could not stand up, and he fell to the ground with a bang.
The camera assistant fell, a bloody flower exploding on his shoulder.
Nolan sensed something was wrong and shouted, "Stop! Stop! Stop! ”
The set was messed up.
But Nolan's control and appeal were good, he picked up the megaphone and shouted, "Tom, don't move!" Put down the gun and don't move! Doctor, where is the doctor? Emma hits 911! Everyone, don't move! It was just an accident! ”
With Nolan's hoarse roar, there was no real chaos on set.
In the waiting area, Bruce was already in front of Martin and asked, "How many shots did Tom Hardy fire?" ”
Martin is a veteran of guns, and he can hear clearly: "Three shots were fired in front, three more shots were fired in the back, but there was no problem with the first three shots, empty cartridges, and ...... in the back"
Bruce remembers very well that the first three shots unloaded by Tom Hardy were indeed empty-packed.
Tom Hardy's pistol was in the back of the cab, with his head in his hands, unclear what was going on.
Everyone else is the same.
Some crew members are old and qualified, and suddenly remembered "The Crow".
This is not the first time something like this has happened in Hollywood, and it won't be the last.
Tom Hardy was well aware that it was a bullet from his gun that wounded the camera assistant.
I regret it so much at the moment, why not let that bastard Bruce double-check this gun and magazine?
