After saying goodbye to Aniston, Eric took Nicole and Elizabeth and several other members to the boarding gate. The huge Boeing passenger plane glides across the long run to the sky, and after the plane is stable, the Eric unfastens the seat belt and finally breathes a sigh of relief.
I always glanced at the Elizabeth of Eric intentionally or unintentionally with a cold hum: "This is the end of the greedy man, hum."
Eric didn't want to discuss these with Elizabeth, little girl is obviously eating, so whatever he said is equivalent to flicking the other side, silence is the best way.
The passenger plane arrived at Seattle Tacoma International Airport after four hours of flight. Looking out through the window, the runway was wet and the sky was gloomy. Apparently it had just rained.
Compared to the Los Angeles which is more than 300 days of sunshine each year, the weather in Seattle is simply another extreme. Because of the temperate maritime climate, Seattle maintains a humid state throughout the year, even when it does not rain, It always gives a moist feeling. It is said in the original line that “Seattle is raining for nine months every year” is the complaint generated by Director Nora Ephron during the shoots process because of the delay of the shoots process due to rainy days.
Under the careful attention of the stewardess, Eric and others all added a piece of clothing for themselves before they got off the plane, but just walked out of the airport, they still felt a cool face.
The temperature of Los Angeles in September still occasionally reaches 30, but it ’s already cold here in Seattle. The temperature is only about fifteen degrees.
"Hi, Eric." After seeing Eric, the Jeffrey who came to the airport walked up and hugged.
After greeting Eric. Let go of Jeffrey and ask: "How have you been in Seattle recently?"
"Very bad. I don't like the weather here very much," Jeffrey shook his head.
Eric smiled and placated: "Be patient for a few more days, and wait for me to get on track, you can go to New York."
"I know, let's go, the car is outside," Jeffrey said, saying hello to others. Take the people out of the airport together and get on a few commercial vehicles.
After a half-hour trip, all the people arrived at the filming location in Seattle, Al base beach, this beach is located in the southwest of Seattle, and if you go to City Center, you have to go about 20 kilometers, because the comparison Remote, so the living environment of the crew is quite simple.
Elizabeth stood in his room, looking at the simple bed and table and chairs in front of him, as well as the old TV like a small box. Complained to Eric who was forced to pull it by himself: "Eric, have the crew's funds been so tight?"
"Of course not," Eric found the girl's expression very interesting. I quipped: "But it hasn't reached the point where a five-star hotel is built here exclusively for crew."
"But, I ..." The girl pointedly pointed at everything in the room with disgust.
"Liz, you have to understand that we are here to make movies, not to enjoy. In order to save time, we must choose the place of residence nearby. We ca n’t always live better. Dozens of crews drive from the city every day Come here for more than twenty kilometers? This area is a few kilometers in a residential area. You should be able to figure out how much congestion people will drive to work in the city every day. How much time will be wasted. "
Elizabeth frowned: "But it looks ... so dirty."
"If you can't stand it, then you go to the city to live in a hotel. The small hotel nearby counts the conditions of this one, you see. It's not that there is a TV." Eric smiled and pointed. It refers to an old-fashioned TV set with a wooden box like a small box. I was thinking about whether to take one. This thing became an antique after more than a decade. It might give a postmodernist literary style in the house. a feeling of.
Elizabeth rolled her eyes and gave Eric an expression of "Are you teasing me?"
Just kidding, Eric patted the **** the shoulder and said: "Liz, aren't you going to be a producer? If you can't bear this, I advise you to give up consider as finished as soon as possible. Waiting for you to make a movie in the future At that time, you will often encounter shoots environment that is not as good as here. Sleeping outdoors is inevitable. What do you do at that time? "
"I ..." The girl bit her lower lip and couldn't help asking: "Well, does everyone in the crew live in such a place?"
"Of course," said Eric: "I'm in the room diagonally across from you, and you are across from Nicole. And, a hotel can't accommodate everyone, so I just said that this is the best one, the crew. The house where the props and props live is across the street and the conditions are worse. "
Elizabeth pondered for a moment, and finally turned silently and dragged his suitcase into it.
After lunch, Eric spent an afternoon to conduct a field inspection of the previous selections of Jeffrey and others. In the evening, the crew organized a simple start-up party. The next day, "Sleepless in Seattle" was officially started.
"Hey, Victor, how are you getting along with Uncle Hanks these days?" Eric squatted next to a seven or eight-year-old boy wearing a red jacket and baseball cap while the staff was laying camera tracks.
The little boy named Victor Morris looked up at the mother who was watching next to him. After being encouraged, he said: "Uncle Hanks is a very good person, he bought me a lot of gifts." The boy said Also, he drew a pocket Transformers model from his pocket and shook it towards Eric, looking like Optimus Prime.
Eric smiled and said: "Well, if I wait for you to perform well, I will buy you gifts. How about the full set of Transformers?"
The little boy glanced at his mother again, and then shook his head: "No, Mr. Director, Mama said that you have paid me a piece of cake, so even if there is no gift, I will perform well."
Eric patted the boy ’s head and chatted with the little guy again before standing up and saying to Hanks: "What do you think?"
"Victor is very obedient and very smart. I just don't know if I can perform the cleverness you requested. To be honest, I think there is a boy who is the most suitable for the role of Jonah."
Eric knows that Hanks refers to Stewart. Runkel. But obviously this is unlikely, even as a supporting role. Stewart's film remuneration is also in the millions, and the young boy's salary is only one hundred thousand USD. Although Firefly is not short of money. But it will not do such unnecessary waste. Although the role of Jonah is also very good, but after all is a supporting role, male & female leads is always Sam and Annie.
"Try a few more times. The reason why I chose this boy was that he was very obedient. The shoots time of" Seattle "is not easy. In case I choose a small Actor that is not obedient, it may be delayed. shoots time, it was a disaster for the crew. "
"Oh. I understand." Hanks smiled.
The shoots track was laid out quickly. Eric had a simple communication with the two. Hanks took the little boy to the beach.
The first scene is very simple, mainly Sam takes Jonah to row in the sea and to play on the beach. Because it ’s all a distant view, there are no acting requirements, so as long as Hanks and the little guy play casually, Eric The photographer and the deputy Director explained a few words, allowing them to take as much shoots lens material as possible, and then walked to the nearby trailer.
The trailer door is open. Eric walked in directly. The makeup artist was applying makeup to Nicole, waiting for the playful shots of Hanks and the little guy. The girl will also start her first scene, the scene where the father and son are watched far away, and it is also the scene of the first conversation between Annie and Sam.
Although in the movie, male & female leads did not communicate until one hour after the opening, but Eric intends to put this scene at the beginning of shoots.
"Mr. Williams," two female makeup artists immediately greeted him when they saw Eric coming in.
"You continue," Eric calmed Nicole, who was about to stand up, and walked behind the girl. Beautiful woman looking in the makeup mirror.
After a while, I used a makeup brush to clean up my face for Nicole. The make-up artist told Eric: "Mr. Williams, do you think this works?"
Nicole also followed. Standing in front of Eric, he made a round of display.
At this time, the girl was wearing a small white suit and tube skirt, stepping on white high-heeled shoes, and a large hooded gray trench coat outside, exactly the same as the Meg Ryan dress in memory. It's just that although the two are equally beautiful, there is absolutely no connection in temperament, and what Eric wants is a silly white Heroine.
"Nicole, imagine you are Annie. Reid, and then smile at me to see." Eric leaned against a table and said to the girl.
Nicole brewed for a moment, and after a moment, slightly tilted his head and opened his mouth, looking at Eric in a silly way. All of a sudden, a very silly and a little while at the same time a little sweet breath rushed across the face. Eric was stunned for a while and called finger click approvingly: "Very good, that's it."
After Nicole was approved by Eric, he quickly took his expression back and changed back to tall and slender ’s cool Nicole Kidman, looking at Eric and waiting for the next command.
Eric does n’t mind the change of the girl ’s expression, as long as Nicole can quickly change the state during the performance.
"Right, you should have figured out how to walk Annie?"
"Of course," Nicole nodded, looked around, picked up a satchel and hung it on her shoulders, it looked like she was about to fall at any time, and then stepped on a completely different step from her previous Lazily walked out of the trailer.
"It's really great," Eric once again praised, Nicole's performance has been far beyond his expectations. (A good event to drop a pie in the sky, a cool mobile phone is waiting for you!
