Exploiting Hollywood 1980.

Chapter 748
"Patrick, you must sit in the back and remember to put on your seat belt."

Two weeks passed quickly, and the filming of the scene at the Shanhu Villa was over.Ronald begins to confirm all the transition sequences.

The big troop and crew rented the big bus, the equipment was pulled away by the crew’s regular truck, and some individuals came by car. Ronald also allowed them to drive to the location of the Grove Park in Asheville, western North Carolina. .

For these actors who drive by themselves, Ronald will personally ask about safety issues.

"Don't let Pat leave the car, you work harder." Ronald told the staff member who was taking a ride with Switz.

Finally, Ronald got on the big bus by himself, walked to the last row, lay down on the chair and fell asleep.

"Ah... huh..."

"Here it is, Ronald, it's here."

Screenwriter Eleanor came and shook Ronald, who was exhausted and snoring, awake.

"Ah, it's already here?"

Grove Park in North Carolina was originally a boy scout base, and there are still many small wooden houses that have not been demolished, which happened to be used as the residence of the backup dancers. The set crew has repaired the house and painted it with white paint. Then do old.

"Here and Virginia's Mountain Lake Villa originally belonged to the borscht belt, and they are both Eastern European and Russian Jewish holiday circles." David Chapman, the exterior designer, was very reliable, and introduced various places to Ronald. Condition.

"Lake Lure over there, you can shoot scenes in the lake." Chapman pointed to a lake in the distance and said to Ronald.

"We'll go over to see the scene later." Ronald, who was very concerned about the scene, ordered Chapman.

Chapman has promised that after filming this film, he will sign with Daydream Films and continue to work as an exterior designer in his next film "Moonlight".

Ronald lifted his luggage and went to the hotel to check in.Here is a Lake Lure SPA hotel not far from the park.In autumn, it is also the off-season price, and the whole package is covered.

Ronald picked out a single room and put his luggage away.Gave a twenty dollar tip to the wait staff.

"Thank you, sir, are you here to make an adult movie? We have filmed here before, and we will find the movie you made in the video store, right?" the waiter put away the money and asked Luo with a smile. Nader.

"What? Adult movies?"

Ronald was taken aback, how it was rumored that he was filming an adult film.

"Isn't your name Dirty Dancing? I thought... sorry, sir." The waiter realized that he had misunderstood and apologized quickly.

"What's going on? Emil, come to my room."

Ronald asked his assistants and found that many people here really misunderstood Dirty Dancing as an adult movie.Privately, they are going to shoot hot springs, vacation cabins, and the natural wilderness by the lake.

"North Carolina is like this. People tend to be conservative, but the more conservative they are, the more curious they are about similar works of art."

David Chapman, who came to scout with Ronald, explained it to him.

"If you want to change other people's views and don't want them to watch, you might as well make a fake movie name and change all the name tags of the crew."

"I don't have the time, and I don't have the money to remake the brand name." Ronald got angry, took a movie name tag, and pouted it on his leg.

The sign was broken in the middle, and Ronald threw the half with "Dirty" on the ground, "Notice, in North Carolina, our movies are collectively called 'Dancing'."

After watching the scenery, Ronald was very satisfied with David Chapman's work.The railings here are all built in the white style of the Virginia Mountain Lake Resort Hotel.

On both sides of the road leading to the hut where the dancers live, there are half-person-high white street light poles, which were imitated by Chapman according to the street lights of the Shanhu Villa.

At least in the lens, there is no big difference between the two places.

"Action!"

That afternoon, Ronald started work.

"Hey, it's so cold in here."

Unlike Virginia, which is hot like summer, the weather in North Carolina is already like late autumn.

Jennifer Gray, who plays Baby, is wearing a shirt with jeans rolled up and a pair of white flats on her feet.A gust of wind blew and shivered.

On a wooden bridge with white railings that continues on the passage down the mountain, she began to practice dancing in the rhythm of mambo.

Jennifer Gray has not undergone dance training like other actors, and her dance level is close to that of a beginner, so this scene is also played in her true colors.

"Ah..."

Gray didn't jump well, and with the cold wind blowing, she got anxious and kicked against the white wooden railing.

"Cut! Very good. Let's have another one." Ronald thought to himself, that's what he wanted to do. Baby raised enough money for Penny's surgery, and offered to replace Penny and partner with Johnny to perform Mambo in another hotel.

In order to dance that kind of dirty dance with his sweetheart, Baby would do anything.

Ronald asked his assistant to bring a wool blanket for Gray to put on.

The frustration caused by this kind of real practice of difficult dance moves is very real, and it is also the effect that Ronald wants to achieve by not letting Gray practice.

Gray went to the trailer, changed into a pink tank top and denim shorts, and came out to continue filming.

"Action!"

Gray practiced the dance moves and climbed up the stone steps on the mountain road step by step.

"Cut!"

Ronald hurriedly sent Gray to the trailer to rest.

The temperature didn't even reach 68 degrees Fahrenheit (20 degrees Celsius), and the cold wind made my whole body shiver.

"Patrick?"

Ronald called Switz, who was going to shoot next, to come over.

"Hmph..." Jennifer Gray gave the back of her head again.

"Oh, Shxt!"

Ronald threw the baseball cap with the words "Dirty Dancing" printed on it, and "Dirty" was pasted off with a special adhesive tape for textiles, and slammed it on the ground.

"I need to fix this right now."

Ronald called Patrick Schwitz and Jennifer Gray into a room, locked the door, and asked Emil to guard the door and not allow anyone to approach.

This kind of matter must be resolved in private.

"Truth time, what's going on with you two?"

"I have no problem. Jennifer seems to be a bit unable to stand real life." Switz also got angry when he came up. Jennifer doesn't have a clear distinction between work and life.

"What did you tell me during the audition? You said you wanted to have a romantic love story with me." Gray also got angry.

"I..." Switz didn't expect Gray to take what he said at that time seriously. It was just the atmosphere at that time.

Ronald was also pissed off by two boys and girls who didn't grow up. How is this different from the jealousy between high school football players and cheerleaders?
"Can you give me an idea, can you act?" Ronald began to revise the script, and now it is definitely not possible to change the roles. If the two quarrel like this, they have to reduce their roles and give Cynthia more. screen time.

Tone down the main love story of Johnny and Baby, and add more plots of Cynthia's women's rights, pregnancy, and self-determination.

"I can definitely, I can return to the state of the audition." Switz was in a hurry. The director must have had a very bad idea when he said this.It was not easy for him to have an absolute protagonist in a scene. He liked this feeling, and he could also sell his songs incidentally.

"I...I..." Jennifer Gray only felt wronged for a while, her eyes were red.

It's not that I don't want to act well, it's that Switz backtracked...and lied to myself.Moreover, during the filming, I still knew that my father was a... news, so I didn't know whether to be angry or funny.

These men are all liars.

"Okay." Ronald didn't feel too good seeing the heroine crying.

He turned around and opened the luggage, searched inside for a long time, and finally found a video tape.

"This is the videotape of your audition at that time, and I keep it all the time. How good was your chemistry at that time? It is not easy to have such a chance to act in such a good script. I believe that after the release, young audiences in America will remember Stop your dancing posture.

Don't let them down, ok? "

Ronald stuffed the videotape into the video recorder in the room, and after a burst of snowflakes, there was a tacit shot of Gray and Switz's audition.

Almost as soon as he saw their chemical reaction, Ronald took a fancy to them and gave up Sarah Jessica Parker as a substitute.

Gray held her cheeks in her hands, but still ignored Switz, she watched the TV, how intimate she and Switz were.Although this person likes to talk big, make inappropriate jokes, and sometimes is not serious enough to perform, he is really handsome.

Switz also sneaked a glance at Gray. Although the girl was average in appearance, she was still very attractive when she was emotional, and her figure was also top-notch.

Ronald watched the two of them carefully, seeing their hands getting closer and closer, and finally holding each other, he was relieved, and quickly opened the door and went out.

"Damn, I feel like a..." Ronald lit a cigarette, smoked around the corner with assistant director Emile, and screenwriter Eleanor, waiting for the hero and heroine to reconnect with each other a feeling of.

Finally, after more than half an hour, I watched the audition video of the two of them repeatedly.Patrick Thwaites and Jennifer Gray walked out of the room hand in hand again.

"I've talked to Jennifer, and there's no problem with the next scene." Switz said to Ronald.

Jennifer Gray is still a little shy, and in front of the crowd, she took her hand out of Switz's hand
"Hmm..." Gray's cheeks were still a little red, he just nodded without saying a word.

"Go to bed early, tomorrow morning will be your play."

After the two protagonists leave, Eleanor and Emil come up to congratulate Ronald.

"Stop talking, I'm exhausted to death, you guys should go to bed early too."

Ronald closed the door, turned off all the lights, and lay on the bed by himself.

In order to succeed in making this movie, which he invested a lot of money in, it can be said that he used all kinds of tricks.
