MTL - Heads Up Hollywood-Chapter 11 In this life, we are brothers!
This is the biggest dilemma Dunn has encountered since the filming of "Titanic", and even the poisoning incident has never made him so worried.
Filming was interrupted again.
The scene of "Jack" and "Ruth" parting and dying on the sea has been filmed for a total of 17 hours. From the swimming pool to the sink, from warm water to cold water, the effect is still not satisfactory to Tang En.
Dunn felt bitter in his heart.
The real predicament is really not as beautiful as imagined.
Originally, in his plan, the shooting was from easy to difficult. This shot in warm water would not take too long.
But now Dunn understands, where is this going from easy to difficult? It is clearly from difficult to easy!
This set of shots is even the most difficult scene in the entire movie!
It's just that we can't back down now. All the crew members understand that as long as this group of shots can pass the test, Leonardo and Kate, who have withstood the test, will walk around freely and easily when facing the next underwater shots. All in one go.
"Why haven't James and Grant arrived yet?"
Tang En called the core production staff together and planned to discuss how to solve the current difficulties, but the two people did not wait for a long time.
At this moment, a staff member hurried over, "James and Grant... quarreled over there!"
Dunn looked unhappy, "What's going on?"
"I heard that Mr. Jon Landau was terminated by the company, and Mr. Cameron was very dissatisfied with it."
Dunn raised his eyebrows, this Grant is quite fast.
In fact, he didn't have any evidence to prove that Jon Landau instructed people to poison, but it's just this kind of thing, it's better to believe it than not to believe it.
At this time, a beautiful figure appeared at the door of Dunn's lounge—Kate Winslet.
She had a thick towel draped over her shoulders, and her hair was still wet. Because she had been soaked in water for a long time, even without makeup, her face was still very pale.
In fact, in order for her to find the state, Dunn has not stayed with her for the past few days.
"I'm sorry, gentlemen, can I have a few words with Dunn alone?"
Her voice was very soft and weak, and it was obvious that the filming had made her body almost collapse.
Of course, everyone has no reason to refuse the heroine's request.
When everyone left, Dunn asked with concern: "Kate, is there anything?"
Before she finished speaking, she saw Dou-da's tears rolling down Kate's snow-white cheeks rustlingly. She tried to control her, but there was still a low sobbing sound.
Tang En panicked, walked over quickly, hugged her gently in his arms, and said softly: "Kate, be strong, I know, you are a brave and good girl, you can do it, I have always believed that you can do it. !"
Dunn can of course understand Kate's tears.
She is under too much pressure!
She was immersed in water for two consecutive days, continuous NG, continuous repetition, and heavy load, which made her nervous all the time.
Producers, including Cameron, are full of praise for Kate, believing that she has a strong character and is a good actor with unlimited potential.
It's just... she's not yet 21 years old!
This mountain-like pressure, even Leonardo complained repeatedly, and even Dunn was mentally exhausted, not to mention she was a young woman?
"Dawn, I can't take it anymore, I really can't take it anymore! The filming of this scene is too painful, I can't stand it anymore!" Kate leaned against Dunn's arms, tears streaming down uncontrollably.
Dunn discouraged: "Kate, we all believe in you, if you can do it, you will definitely achieve a breakthrough! Kate, stick to it, this shot is probably the biggest opportunity in your life, seize it and control yourself. fate, okay?"
Kate kept choking, "But...but I really can't do it anymore. I'll take it for a while, just like those scenes in the past."
Tang En's face turned pale, and he immediately rejected, "Absolutely not! This is not those ordinary literary dramas, this is the soul of the whole movie, you must show 100% of your strength, what I need is the perfect shot! "
In the previous filming, Dunn took the attitude of getting by in many scenes. If the full score of the performance was 100, Kate sometimes achieved 80 points of performance, and Dunn chose to pass. For this reason, he had quarreled with Cameron many times.
But this set of shots was different, Tang En was determined to get 99 points, or even full marks!
Dunn is a mirror image of Cameron's professional ability, but he will never be reconciled to being the second Cameron. He wants this movie to be deeply branded with his own!
Seeing Tang En's attitude is so determined, Kate bit her lip tightly, and wept in a low voice for a while before she left Tang En's embrace, wiped her tears, and forced a smile: "I'm sorry, Tang En, I just want to vent. Don't worry, I will persevere."
Looking at her haggard face, Tang En felt a little unbearable in his heart.
But how can the dream-seeking road be easy?
"Kate, you are an excellent actress. You are strong, brave, and fearless. Everyone sees you." Dunn kissed her forehead lightly, "You have given 'Ruth' a brand new Life, I believe, if you keep working hard, you will give her a soaring soul back."
Kate nodded heavily, "Don, I understand, don't worry, I won't let you down."
…
The day's shooting is over, and the work is not going well.
Dunn was a little irritable.
Not only was the filming schedule delayed, it was also a quarrel between Cameron and Grant.
When the poisoning incident broke out, Dunn's first thought was that Jon Landau was setting up a bureau to persecute him.
But now that I think about it, it seems... there are many flaws.
The poisoning incident is too serious. Once it happens, it is no trivial matter. Jon Landau is still in New York, does he dare to make up his mind to leave such an important task to someone else?
If you are not careful, you will be ruined!
Moreover, during the meal that day, more than 100 people ate something, but the poisoned people were only a dozen very unimportant staff and extras. It was a coincidence.
If Jon Landau was behind the instigation, he would definitely work on some of the core members of the crew and the main actors. The only way to delay Dunn's shooting plan smoothly.
Most importantly, Cameron's reaction was too intense!
Cameron and Jon Landau have been friends for many years and know each other very well.
Although Cameron is short-tempered, he is very honest, not like a Hollywood director at all. He drew a body sketch for Kate Winslet, and even took the other party's bikini photo, relying on his imagination to supplement it, and if he replaced it with someone else, the heroine would definitely be stripped naked in front of him.
If Cameron thinks Jon Landau can't do anything about poisoning, then there's a good chance it wasn't his.
Then... who did the poison?
Dunn sat on the sofa in the room, thinking hard.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
With the knock on the door, I saw George Paxton's inexplicably excited face.
"George? Is something wrong?"
Dunn pointed to the sofa.
George Paxton's current position is assistant director, but he has no professional knowledge and knows nothing about the professional skills of various departments of the crew. He has only been an assistant on the set for six years, and his ability is very mediocre.
Dunn promoted him to a position because he had a good relationship with him, but George was simply not up to the job.
But mediocre ability does not mean lack of IQ. On the contrary, George is very smart and self-aware. His current position is assistant director, but he still does the chores of assistant on set, and he has no complaints.
After George sat down, he pondered for a while, "Dawn, I think it's more appropriate for me to go to the New York studio now."
"Going to New York?" Dunn looked confused, "You are the assistant director, what are you going to do in New York if you don't stay on the set?"
George shook his head and laughed, "I know very well what I am capable of, and it is not a director's assistant at all. Stay here, everyone will take care of me in your face, but it will be awkward. It is better to go to the New York studio and help you play the front line. Listen. Say... Didn't Jon Landau stay there for more than half a month?"
"Um?"
Dunn opened his eyes suddenly.
Facing Dunn's gaze, George's expression changed slightly, his eyes dodged a little.
Tang En pondered for a while, then heaved a long sigh and said, "George, you did the poison, right?"
George was silent for a long time, "Don, I don't want to lie to you."
Dunn looked a little excited, "George, do you know the nature of this matter? Do you know that it is very dangerous for you to do this?"
George smirked and laughed at himself, "Tang En, I know what I am capable of, but you are different, you are a genius and a rising star in Hollywood! In the future, there will be more and more people around you, but I What? What can I do? I need to find a position that suits me, or I might as well go back to being a studio assistant."
"You will go to jail!"
Tang En's tone was very serious, UU reading www. uukanshu.com's eyes widened, even a little angry.
But George smiled relievedly, looking nonchalant, "You will find a way to save me, right, Dunn?"
Tang En's face was slightly heavy, and he looked up to the sky and sighed, "George, you are like this... I can't bear it."
George smiled and said, "Don, actually, you don't have to think so much. You are the boss. If you give me a job and a salary, I should give something. If there is a reward, you must give something, right and proper, right?"
"But it's too dangerous..."
Tang En's words were interrupted directly by George, and he said solemnly: "Tang En, you don't need to say anything. I know my abilities and my job position. These are all voluntary and have nothing to do with you."
"But things like poisoning... it's really too much."
George shook his head and said sternly: "Not too much, how could Jon Landau be fired? Dunn, you are not only my friend, but also my boss. I can handle some things that are inconvenient for you to do. "
Without giving Dunn a chance to speak, George patted his chest confidently and said proudly, "I don't have great wisdom, but I still have some clever ones, hehe. You see that the poisoning incident is so big, but we have nothing to lose. Paying off Jon Landau, the enemy, shows that I am still relatively good at this kind of work."
Dunn didn't speak for a long time, his narrowed eyes flashed with strange brilliance, "George, I won't admit it."
"Of course!" George was already mentally prepared with a smile, "Everything I do has nothing to do with you, it's my own opinion."
Tang En's eyes brightened, he took a deep breath, stepped forward, and gave George Paxton a big hug, "George, in this life, we are brothers!"
