Hollywood Domination Chapter 87: Love Exposure

One of the kissing scenes that are often performed in movies is that Josh does this to Jenny, distracting his attention, and then kisses up without paying attention. It's very exciting to have a good-looking man and a beautiful woman in a movie, and it's very exciting when it's sincere. However, generally speaking, the movie has been beautified to a certain extent, and the reality is not so good.

"Ouch!"

Because Jenny turned her head very quickly, Josh was a little impatient again. Their noses bumped into each other, and they both cried out in pain. Jenny held her nose and her eyes were hazy with tears. She hurriedly looked in the mirror, and felt relieved when she saw that her nose was not crooked. She gave Josh a complaining look, "Should I focus on regular practice for the first time?"

Josh smiled awkwardly, "Okay, okay."

The second attempt was much more normal. The two actors looked at each other and brewed their emotions. Josh touched Jenny's chin, and his hand naturally moved to the back of his head. With a little force, Jenny and him got close, their lips stuck together, like a casual kiss between lovers.

As a young woman of normal age who has legitimate needs and hasn’t exchanged feelings with another male individual for a long time, this is indeed a bit of a stimulus. Jenny is not a moralist, so she doesn’t dare to Admitting that it was a very pleasant kiss, but she didn't say anything, but pursed her lips, took the DV player on the table, "Let's watch the replay."

Just like when making a movie, the actors like to watch the replay on the monitor after the scene. Now the monitor has become a small screen of the DV player. Josh and Jenny are watching their performance professionally , and there is no embarrassment at the beginning of the partnership—even if there is, they are familiar enough to be well hidden. In the past few months, in order to pave the way for the exposure of their relationship, the two of them had a lot of opportunities to meet, and they also met alone a few times. Maybe everyone was a little jerky the first time or two, but This is the same as filming. If you do too much, you don’t take it seriously. Now it’s the same as rehearsing before filming the kissing scene. If you feel awkward when you are working as a job, it will make you appear that you are not pure in your mind and a little ambiguous. .

"It is indeed necessary to rehearse in advance." Josh touched his nose, "This kiss is just..."

He waved his hand, "You can't fool a child."

Although in the movie, two strangers can kiss sparks, and the kiss is as passionate as a long-term couple, but that is the result of angle selection and post-production modification. In fact, normal couple street photography can still be interpreted A lot of information is released, so fake love is not so easy to talk about. If you don’t get along with this "aura", even if it is photographed, it will be difficult to gain credibility. Tabloids and readers will think this is a hype couple, and the aura The scene is actually reflected in the body language, which is composed of many micro-movements and micro-expressions. Judy said that many fake couples in Hollywood are actually between half-truths and half-fakes. , In this way, there is no burden at all when going out on the street together, and the effect is good.

Of course, there is another purpose of pre-shooting, which is to find a way to kiss more beautifully in the photos. After all, she and Josh are in love now. Her passionate but very indecent kiss photos will not have a very good impact on their popularity, and maybe they will become the **** of public ridicule and the target of ridicule by celebrities.

Although I have never been a director, but I have never eaten pork and watched pigs run. Josh and Jenny practiced for about 20 minutes. People don't use the kissing method with the forehead close to the front, so as not to press the nose together. If it is from the side, the left and right sides have good photogenic effects.

"Jenny." Mary knocked on the trailer door. "You have to touch up your makeup."

"OK, here we come." Jenny wiped her mouth, "I'm leaving—need to tell Claudia, let her come to you?"

Jenny introduced Claudia to the work of "The Notebook". In "Pirates of the Caribbean", she thought that Claudia was a good makeup artist who could make her look beautiful. Dia recently lost her job, and Jenny pulled her into the crew by the way.

"Uh, there's no need." Josh said awkwardly, closing his legs to cover up the inevitable sequelae of twenty minutes of practice, "I'll just wait for you in the trailer."

"Are you sure you don't want to come to watch? Then you will be more involved in the role." Jenny had already walked to the door of the trailer, and she poked her head back in a playful way, "Remember not to stain the carpet! ——and the car in the car Bathroom!"

Without waiting for Josh to reply, she smiled and closed the trailer door, and went to the dressing room with Mary to touch up makeup for the upcoming passionate scene.

#

The story structure of "Lian Lian Notebook" is actually quite simple, and it is a purely commercial film, with no appeal for expression or deconstruction. Judging from the original film, Jenny thinks that this film is a tribute to true love. Noah and Ellie have been on and off, with countless ups and downs. From young to old, they were first blocked by family, war, relatives, diseases and other obstacles. But in the end, with the help of fate, they completed their persistence in true love, and finally passed away hand in hand. What impresses the audience in this film is not the complex narrative techniques, ironic story connotation or the dazzling acting skills of the actors, but only one point: true love.

As a viewer who doesn't like to watch romance movies, she admits that she couldn't help crying when she saw the last paragraph, when the elderly Ellie lost her memory after a short recovery, and panicked to avoid the elderly Noah. As soon as the tear valve was opened, I cried until the end of the film. This kind of crying is a kind of envious and moved crying. Few people can meet such sincere feelings in real life. Jenny thinks that compared to the young Noah and Ellie, The elderly group lost their beautiful and handsome appearance and still fell in love with each other after becoming ordinary old people, which touched her even more—of course, ordinary is relative, and Ellie is still a very beautiful old lady.

Why is the elderly group more moving? After repeatedly studying the performance of the two age groups, Jenny thought it was the relationship between acting skills. Especially James Garner, who played the role of the old Noah, is definitely an old actor with strong expressiveness. I realized his deep affection for his wife, and the sincerity of this feeling made the end of the whole film the most contagious part. In this way, when the audience leaves the movie theater, their hearts are still filled with beautiful touches and envy for this true love. Of course, word-of-mouth is not bad.

The young group is responsible for more conflicts and conflicts. It shows the story of the two people after they are attracted to each other. The feeling of worry and happiness from the bottom of my heart. When Jenny watched it for the first time, she felt that both Ryan and Rachel performed well, but after receiving the film, she felt that the performance of the two was still far behind that of the senior group—it was not bad, but not good enough.

She hasn't seen any of Ryan's movies, so I won't say anything. Rachel may have just debuted at that time, so her acting skills are still a bit immature. Although she can see the chemical reaction with Ryan, her Ai Li gave Jenny a feeling that there was too little expression. This is a judgment that is difficult to express. To be precise, there is no play in Rachel's eyes. Are there any eyes in her eyes when she looks at Noah and her future fiancé Hammond? What's the difference? If you take screenshots of the two pictures and let people tell them apart, most people probably won't be able to tell whether it's Noah, her true love, or Hammond, whom she doesn't really love but just kind of likes.

Compared to Rachel, Ryan’s acting skills have the same problem, but it’s much lighter. Ryan’s eyes are very playful most of the time, but the director’s shots in the finished film may not be good. , in some silent scenes, the information should be filled and conveyed by Ryan's expression, but what the audience sees is only a close-up of Ryan's handsome (Jenny doesn't think much of it) and melancholy side face, what kind of mood does this close-up convey Ryan ? can not tell.

Based on Jenny's memory, Ryan's acting skills should not be bad in the future, because he was nominated for an Oscar winner. Noah's actor James Garner, his acting skills are very good, at least worthy of starring in this film, so she is still very confident in Ryan's learning ability, and she has no intention of restraining her acting skills to avoid pressure - since she must Acting, it must be better. Isn't the progress of actors all honed in the performances with high-level actors? She hopes and believes that Ryan and her can deliver some solid personalities beyond that heartfelt calling chemistry. For example, Ellie’s mood changes and Ryan’s changes in mentality do not require dialogue. These changes can be done with dialogue, but changes in eyes and expressions can be used to reflect these information.

Of course, this also caused the slow progress of the filming of "The Notebook" and the tense relationship between director Cassavetes and Ryan. Maybe he blamed Jenny, the biggest star in the whole cast, for acting too well, so he could only vent his NG anger on Ryan several times, and complained privately several times, "Can't this child star of Disney's Mickey Mouse Club sing honestly?" Or honestly dating his girlfriend? '.

This is a sore foot for Ryan, because his contemporaries Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, and Christina Aguilera are all **** stars, and he is now He is still far from famous in the film industry, and his previous popularity is not much left. Compared with his status as a former member of the Mickey Mouse Club, people prefer to call him 'Sandra Bullock's little boyfriend'. The crew even rumored that he got the chance to play the leading role was the result of Sandra's enthusiastic recommendation.

However, the future Oscar winner is indeed extraordinary. Ryan, under the pressure of being suppressed by Jenny, has never conceded defeat. Filming Ryan's performance two days later left people speechless. Although the director was still a little dissatisfied, there was no room for criticism. However, the direct consequence of this kind of crew atmosphere is that the relationship between Ryan and Jenny is getting colder and colder. There is no communication. Jenny always felt that Ryan had held back all his strength, and planned to suppress her for a scene someday in order to be satisfied.

It's a pity that Ryan hasn't found this opportunity so far, especially in today's passionate scene. The director's satisfaction with her and dissatisfaction with Ryan are all written on his face.

"Cut, Nogood." He stopped for the third time, "Ryan, look at Jenny's camera."

Ryan and Jenny both put on the nightgowns handed over by the staff, leaned close to the director to watch the replay just now, and the footage from several cameras returned to the monitor, facing Jenny and Ryan respectively full body and face closeup. Since it is not edited, the four shots are the whole process of two people **** and **** respectively—of course, both Jenny and Ryan have taken protective measures, the effect is about the same as wearing a bikini and swimming trunks, and the key parts are strictly protected by tape Strictly, you will never lose your clothes, and you don't need to be shy.

"Look at the changes in Jenny's expression, let's look at the close-up of the face first," Cassavetes said, "I can tell from her expression where you are now. At first you took off your coat—— Ellie thought it was fun and fresh, she also took off her shirt, and then your undershirt, Ellie began to feel excited, pay attention, look carefully, look at Ellie's pupils, some shrink, that is one of the signs of sexual arousal, Her face looks like she's doing something bad - like you're getting your first bite of he. Fucking big. Weed in college! After you take off your pants, Ellie starts to panic, watch out, this Another change of expression, because you took off your panties, this is the first time she saw this organ, so she was a little scared, but curious, and couldn't help taking a peek. If you remember, this expression is the same as your first time When we met, the expression in the third shot two weeks ago was exactly the same."

He zoomed in on Ryan's performance, "And you, you simply showed two emotions, tense, attracted, that's your expression, of course, it's the right emotion, but you didn't show it In response to her expression, you notice that Ellie’s shyness about revealing herself and her confidence and lack of confidence in her femininity are all written on her face in the close-up of the expression throughout the whole process. But you The close-up shows us two emotions, lasting for a minute, I can see that your tension is constantly rising, and at the end you have begun to tremble slightly-good expressiveness, as a newcomer, you are very Comprehension."

After a rare affirmation of Ryan, Cassavetes continued, "But such a minute will make the audience feel monotonous. From your expression, I can't tell where she has gone. What is in your heart now?" What are you thinking, tell me what Noah is thinking now."

Ryan said calmly, "Noah has realized that he spends less and less time with Ellie. This may be his only chance. Under the passion, he can vaguely feel his despair and worry. But Noah will not give up. At the same time, Noah is completely immersed in getting along with Ellie, and these worries are just the background."

"Very good." Kasowitz couldn't help but praise Ryan, "You just want to convey this information through your expression, use your eyes, your eye muscles, move them, use They!"

Ryan showed a pensive expression, Cassavetes announced a 15-minute break, and then began to rehearse. It can be seen that he has lost confidence in this shot, and he is not going to take a lot of time to shoot again and again, consuming the photographer's time. energy.

The cameraman, scene reporter, etc. all walked away to drink water and eat snacks, but the two actors could not rest because of this. Body foundation is applied all over the body, and makeup needs to be touched up frequently under the lighting.

"Honey, you must tell me how you take care of your skin." Makeup artist Andy said enviously while squatting down to touch up the foundation on her arms, "It's hard to imagine that you don't have the problem of pigmentation. "

"Sun protection is the only answer." Jenny said casually. This is a good habit she brought from her previous life. I don’t care if I’m a weirdo, but it’s not convenient to do so after I became famous, but I rarely have the opportunity to walk under the sun for a long time during the day, so I changed to apply sunscreen specially bought from East Asia’s online shopping. Because sunscreen is a concept that is rarely seen in Europe and the United States, almost all sunscreens in Europe and the United States are not sunscreened.

Of course, this makes her skin a bit pale, and she often needs to wear body foundation, but this is also better than being sunburned with spots and spots on her body, not to mention that Caucasians are the race with the highest incidence of skin cancer in the world , Once sunburned, sunburn, sunburn, sunburn, sunburn, follow-up problems all follow, and the photoaging of the skin is almost irreversible. Chen Zhen doesn't understand why Caucasians like to be sunburned so much. She has Sometimes when you see the layers of sunburn on the red arms of some heavy sunbathers, you will feel sick, let alone if the other person is a little fat, the thought can reduce your appetite.

Sure enough, her theory could not be approved by Andy. These makeup artists would never associate pigmentation with sun exposure, let alone consider the extremely high cancer-causing rate of indoor tanning services. Andy himself was She was flushed, but instead of arguing with Jenny, she changed the subject and said with a smile, "Congratulations, you managed to make Ryan hate you a little more today."

Jenny took a look at Ryan, who was sitting in another corner with his eyes closed, asking someone to touch up his makeup while muttering something, she smiled, "Actually, Ryan is a quick learner."

"Of course, but you're better," said Claudia, who was touching up her face, and the two exchanged a friendly smile.

"If we talk about normal times, of course, this is a fair game." Andy's tone became a little gossip, "but today I think it's unfair to Ryan—someone's lips are a little abnormally red , it seems that I have fully warmed up before the filming begins.”

She is completely implying that there is a situation between Jenny and Josh, but it is also a normal speculation. "The Notebook" has a small budget, and it was filmed in the suburbs of Los Angeles County, hundreds of kilometers away from Los Angeles. It was already unusual for Josh to come to visit the class by car, and he and Jenny stayed in the trailer for a long time when he came here, which made it difficult not to think about it.

Jenny and Claudia looked at each other, Claudia didn't have any special expression, but bent down, "Look up—"

Using eyeliner, Jenny successfully skipped this topic, and Andy didn't get to the bottom of it. After finishing work, he went to drink water and rest. Claudia was packing the makeup box, and Jenny cleared her throat. With some embarrassment, I said, "If you feel...you know, I'm sorry."

"This is not your problem at all." Claudia closed the cosmetic case, shook her head, and smiled sincerely, "I just want to thank you for your understanding and support all the time, this is not something you have to did."

"Since we are already friends, don't say such things." Jenny has always had a good impression of Claudia. This girl is low-key, sensible, professional and calm. She exudes any hostility, which is objectively rare for an average-looking woman. "Are you sure you can accept working on the crew?"

"Yes." Claudia raised her eyebrows and answered in a questioning tone, as if she could hear some implicatures in her words.

"Then I think I have a job offer for you," said Jenny, who has had the idea for a long time. It’s impossible for me to come to me every day to help me take care of these details. I can only guide remotely. I think if there is someone around me who can connect with him, we will be much more relaxed. And I always like the makeup you put on me .”

Jenny also has several considerations for making this offer. First, she and Josh will start a public relationship soon. If Josh still likes to bring Claudia, they will attract some doubts sooner or later. , it’s better to give Claudia an identity. Second, she does have this need, and Claudia’s professional level is also satisfactory. And the third is that she thinks it is not easy for Claudia. If she does not take this job, at least during the period of their relationship, it is unlikely that Josh and her will meet in private. Whether it's to reduce the risk or to appease Claudia, it's a good plan to let her be her own stylist. They can often go out together, and the reporters won't talk about it just because Josh and Claudia are photographed. Unless it is a completely unexplainable extreme photo, it is hard for the public to believe that Josh will have trouble with his old friend and makeup artist who he introduced to his girlfriend-and he looks ordinary- .

Claudia obviously didn't expect Jenny to bring up this matter, and she was obviously stunned. Jenny gave her a sympathetic look. She felt that Claudia must love Josh very much to insist on doing this It’s been a long time, you know that Josh has had a cleaning period for more than a year. "You don't have to answer me now, think about it carefully."

Leaving Claudia a little space, Jenny walked over to Ryan and found an empty high chair and sat down.

"Hey."

"Hey." Ryan replied sullenly, not interested in chatting. Instead, Kevin Connolly beside him said kindly, "Hi, Jenny, you are so beautiful today."

"Thank you for the compliment." Jenny made a face at him, "Now I know why you came early to wait for the show."

She didn't despise Kevin because he only played a supporting role. Although this little man has a mediocre star career, he has a strong relationship. He is a good friend of Leonardo and Tobey Maguire. If Jenny I remember right, from next year he will be starring in the HBO drama "Entourage". He can be regarded as a successful actor with his own TV series, and Jenny used to quite like his role in the show.

"Yes, I was hoping that you could NG a few more times." Kevin laughed and said, "By the way, I heard that Josh is coming too. Will he stay overnight? There is one tonight Party, you two can come together."

Seeing his playful eyes, Jenny knew his intentions clearly, she laughed, "Are you asking for something?"

"I don't have one." Kevin made a defensive move, then said with a smile, "Do I have one?"

"Go, go," said Jenny, "the filming is about to start, do you really want to stay and watch?"

Kevin just sneaked in to get some snacks. He didn't really want to watch the filming. He smiled and was driven away by Jenny. Jenny turned to Ryan, "Are you still preparing for the show?"

"It's a bit difficult." Ryan admitted that his interest was still not very high, and his words were a bit thorny, "I'm sorry you have to act with me."

Although I said sorry, but the tone was not too sorry. Jenny also understands him. Whoever Ren, after being trampled on by the director for a few weeks, will have complicated feelings about this control group.

"Actually, it would be okay if I didn't go to New York in December." Jenny said, "I still enjoy being hugged and don't mind spending a little more time on it, but I think we We still have to finish filming these scenes before the weather gets cold, right?"

She made a half-mocking joke, pointing out the fact that she didn't have much time, before adding, "So if you don't want to get cold, can I share a bit of my experience?"

Ryan glanced at her suspiciously, "Will you please?"

Jenny really didn't have any other intentions, she just wanted to finish the filming quickly. If this continues, she won't be able to finish filming her own scenes in two months, and she really won't be able to go to New York in December.

"Are you an expressionist?" She said, "I see that your expression has always been restrained. Of course, expressionism is not bad, but love scenes still pay attention to emotional injection. I understand—my naked. The body is not very attractive to you, in fact, you are the same to me, do you know what I was thinking when I looked at you just now?"

Ryan's expression made a silent question.

"A huge cheese fries." Jenny said deadpan, "I was thinking when you took off your pants that they brought me another double cheeseburger - and I In theory, you can never eat these things."

This is of course a lie. The reason why she behaved so well is because she has been beating the children with her gold fingers, but Jenny feels that the traces of that kind of love are actually similar, especially in the scene just now It’s a **** scene. In many cases, people’s mentality towards **** and food is really similar, “I know you love Twizzlers, but you’re going to shoot **** scenes these days…”

Ryan is a very spiritual actor, but he has no experience yet. This kind of actor sometimes lacks a clue. When Jenny said this, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to pull Jenny to the venue. central.

"Rehearse with me?" he said, then stepped back, closed his eyes and adjusted for a while.

When he opened his eyes again, although the expression on his face was not so obvious, it had changed drastically in terms of the richness of details. After taking off the virtual coat, Ryan's expression also became hungrily—although it was only a momentary loss of control, and he was stretched back quickly, the tightness that was full of temptation jumped out all at once.

"Good!" Kasowitz did not know when he had returned to the field, and he applauded appreciatively. "Very good, taking advantage of your presence, we will shoot this scene right away."

Of course no one will object, Ryan showed a cheerful smile for the first time in a few days, and he smiled at Jenny friendly, "Thank you."

"It's easy to do." Jenny said, it's a bit uncomfortable to be her now. ——Speaking of which, this is the first time she has acted with a talented actor of the same age. Ryan's performance... really made her a little jealous. If it wasn't for the help of Goldfinger, she wouldn't be able to adjust in such a short period of time. Come here...

Thinking that such a talented Ryan seems to have been nominated for an Oscar until 2014, Jenny unexpectedly felt a little afraid of that lofty award. Although she hasn't started to challenge yet, she always has One day to face.

Even if she has a golden finger by her side, facing this level of competition, she doesn't have the confidence to win...

Perhaps it was Jenny's call that broke a bottleneck in Ryan's acting skills. In the next filming, his progress can be described as fast, to the extent that the director wanted to remake the previous clips. This also gave Jenny a little more confidence in the future of "The Notebook"—at least, she was sure that the performances of the hero and heroine in the film should be higher than the original version.

At the same time, "People" exclusively exposed the details of Josh's visit to the set, and the photos of her and Josh kissing in the corner of the crew also appeared on the covers of major entertainment newspapers...

The author has something to say: Note: 1 The paragraph about skin cancer is almost true. You can observe the skin of white aunts. If you love to bask in the sun when you are young, it is terrible! That spot can get rid of your trypophobia

2 Some of the information about Ryan, Kevin and the director is also true. It seems that Gao Siling really likes candy very much.
