Acting King's Daily [Comprehensive British and American]

After the internal meeting was held, Gattaca was officially launched.

Jon Landau's fear of nagging director Andrew Niccol on set with studio tyrant James Cameron didn't happen.

Strictly speaking, Cameron is not competent at all as an assistant director.

Before Vincent entered the space center, that is, before the young Vincent played by Gu Qing, Cameron did not appear in the studio, let alone perform his duties as an assistant director.

For this reason, Jon Landau couldn't go to Cameron to ask what happened, so he had to go to the gentle-tempered Gu Qing, "Didn't James say he was here to help? But why isn't he here?"

"Isn't he doing this to help?" Gu Qing, who replaced Cameron and acted as the assistant director of the crew to give lectures to the actors who played the young Vincent and his younger brother Anton, asked back as a matter of course. .

Jon Landau: "..." What he said was so reasonable that I was speechless.

"Don't worry, James' schedule coincides with my shooting schedule." Gu Qing added after thinking about it.

Jon Landau seemed to understand something, but he felt that it was better for him to pretend to be confused.

……

Vincent gave birth naturally, but he has become a "flawed person" in today's world. He was predicted to live only 30 years old through genetic testing by doctors all his life, and his chance of suffering from heart disease is [-]%.Because of this, kindergartens refused to admit him. Under such circumstances, when his parents wanted their next child, they adopted genetic screening and got a genetically optimized child Anton.

Despite Vincent's hard work growing up, he still suffers from unfair genetic discrimination.He also proved that he was no worse than Anton in the swimming competition with his younger brother, but what's the use of all this?People only believe in genes.

After beating his younger brother in a swimming meet, adult Vincent leaves home to pursue his dream of flying into space.However, this is a world of genetic discrimination. A flawed person like him will not be admitted to the space center, but can only become the bottom of society, doing dirty work.

However, Vincent didn't want to stay away from his dream. He finally found a job as a cleaner in the space center. Even he didn't know whether this meant that he shortened the distance from his dream.

Gu Qing's role began when Vincent ran away from home and appeared as a cleaner in the space center.

And, as he said, the big-name assistant director James Cameron finally clocked in.He seemed to be in a good mood, and after seeing Gu Qing's messy appearance, his mood became even better.

As a cleaner, Vincent is not very tidy.Besides, Vincent was thin and short-sighted, wore a pair of glasses, and was usually neglected, with messy hair and crooked teeth.On the whole, it is natural that they cannot be compared with the glamorous "normal people". This also means to form a sharp contrast with the elite image after changing the name and surname in the future.

For Cameron, who is looking for Qinglezi, it is enough.

Yes, the fundamental reason why Cameron volunteered to be the assistant director can be summed up in this sentence: Gu Qing is happy when he is in pain.Going back to the source, we have to talk about the great director's "drunk incident". After he woke up at Gu Qing's house that day, he still vaguely remembered what he had done when he had a splitting headache.And then, there is nothing to say, it's all Gu Qing's fault!

It's bearable or unbearable, okay?

In this way, the script of "Gait Shot" is really well written.So there it was, Cameron came to the studio with the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously after watching Gu Qing's current hanging silk style in the dressing room, and saw the official director Andrew Nicole who was making preparations, He patted him on the shoulder very relieved, and praised: "The script is well written."

For Cameron, who has always been strict, this is quite a good evaluation, and it has successfully shocked a lot of jaws.

Christ Jesus above, what happened?

From this point of view, although the deputy director Cameron is very famous, he has been "playing big" for so long before starting work, but his deterrent power is not comparable to that of the real director Nicole. The atmosphere is sober.But the other cast and crew don't have to be so stressed, Cameron didn't mean to overstep the mark, as his assistant director was only in charge of Gu Qing.

I said it all, it's a guest appearance of friendship.

Before the filming started, Cameron "dutifully" narrated the play to Gu Qing, "You have to understand that you are playing a small person who is at the bottom of society and is discriminated against by the whole society. You are nothing, you know So put away your usual lofty posture for me, don't keep your back so straight, although Vincent has a backbone, but you have to know the general environment, when the whole world even his parents look down on him, he It's impossible not to feel inferior—what kind of expression do you have?" He also read the script carefully, okay?

Gu Qing said solemnly: "A look of nostalgia and emotion intertwined?"

Cameron: "...Don't let me NG you if you have the ability!"

Gu Qing, Gu Qing is capable.

After Vincent met Jerome later, he underwent bone lengthening surgery to make him 6'1 (186cm) tall. His own height setting is not that high even if he stands on tiptoe.In addition, the teeth are not so neat... However, Gu Qing himself is so tall, and the teeth are also very neat, and there is no substitute, so it needs to be used in post-production, that is, to adjust him during post-production She is thin and small, and her teeth need to be adjusted.

At the same time, it meant that Gu Qing had to imagine that he was thin and weak, and he had to be a little ambiguous when he spoke, so that he could make a proper expression after coordinating it.This is actually not the first time Gu Qing has encountered this kind of thing. In "LA Confidential", Bard played by Russell Crowe is the biggest policeman in the police station, but he can only be considered medium-sized. In order to capture the feeling of "big man", he deliberately lived in a small apartment for a period of time, and he had to squeeze to get in the door.It's just that when it's Gu Qing's turn this time, he has to do the opposite.

But this is not a problem for Gu Qing, after all, even cleanliness can be 'overcome', isn't it?

After "A——", Gu Qing quickly entered the state. He used his height of 6'1 ​​(186cm) to show a posture of 5'9 (176cm) or even an inch less.His original style of strolling in the courtyard has also disappeared. On such a handsome face, there is an idiot, bah, when it is an expression of obsession and yearning for the space center, at first, he really couldn't bear it. Look straight, but that's the role requirement, it's pleasing to the eye if you watch too much.

There is nothing to say about the acting skills, just look at the more and more stretched expression of the real director Andrew Nicholl.

Contrary to him, Cameron's brows became tighter and tighter.

Cameron didn't shout "Cut", Gu Qing's performance couldn't be faulted even if he insisted on nitpicking, but when he finished filming this scene and wanted to change the scene to shoot the next scene, he stopped Gu Qing .

"Eric, do you remember what we talked about when we first met?"

Gu Qing was stunned for a moment, "Why do you ask such a question?"

"Why do you have so many things, just answer me?" Cameron urged impatiently.

"But you did it for no reason—" Gu Qing stopped halfway through his speech, and he leaned closer to some Camerons, "Believe it or not, if you said 'I knew you had a problem', I would laugh out loud, very soon Loud."

Cameron: "...Go away and prepare for the next game, you!" Cameron's brows were still unfurled, as far as he knew that Gu Qing had no cure for cleanliness, he actually appeared so comfortable under the camera ,This unscientific!It can't be blamed that the big director suspects that Gu Qing is a fake, but unfortunately this possibility has been crossed out, which made Cameron even more confused and even more confused.

……

Except for some exterior scenes, most of the filming locations of "Gait Shot" are in EX Industry's experimental base in New York State.The space center where Vincent works is specially built in the experimental base, and the staff of the space center, apart from the actors with lines involved in the plot, the rest are also cameos by scientific researchers from the EX industry. Is it the banner of the industrial promotional film?

This has also largely eliminated the harassment of media reporters. Most of the people who come and go in the specially built studio are the cast and crew of the crew. In addition, the intention of this film is slightly sensitive. The behind-the-scenes staff have all gone through relatively strict screening.Those who can be selected are all with relatively high overall quality. It is absolutely impossible to find those who have a bad record of breaking the inside story of the crew to the tabloids without the crew's consent.

Now Cameron has been recruited to sit in charge, but the item of 'abnormal aesthetics' is definitely not included in the comprehensive quality, #爱美之心人都有之#, in this case, when shooting Vincent half-naked Sometimes, there will be a small set--this scene happened in Vincent's not-so-spacious home--in a short period of time, it was crowded with people, causing the lighting engineer to cry. No surprise.

Vincent never gave up on his dream, so he relentlessly trains his body. He looks thin, but under his clothes, there are muscles that have been continuously exercised.

Gu Qing's body proportions are perfect, and he doesn't have to worry about eating high-calorie foods that will cause his body to change or even deform. The combination of the improved T-virus and the X-gene will keep his body in top condition - he doesn't have muscular muscles like a bodybuilder She is tall, but the muscle lines are very smooth. Under the rounded chest muscles, there are six well-proportioned abdominal muscles that can be counted. The mermaid line is also clearly visible, and further down... it is the sweatpants.

It was said that he was half-naked, and this scene was shot with Vincent hanging upside down on the door frame doing sit-ups until he was exhausted, but the crowd watching didn’t have the heart to regret this—the drops of mellow sweat The beads, following the ups and downs of the owner of the body, rolled on the smooth chest, and looked like they were glowing under the cool-colored light.

That is the temptation of extreme masculinity!

However, #外行看流乐，经典看门道#, from the director’s point of view, Vincent was fighting against his fate that he was determined by a doctor through genetic testing that he would not live to be 30 years old, and he was stubbornly fighting against the established fate I am fighting, and I am still clinging to the dream that is considered unrealistic by the society.

Look at how powerful he is.

When he couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground, the "Astronomy and Astronautics", which he had memorized all by heart, also fell with a "snap". It hits the hearts of the audience, enough to resonate with them.

"Ugh--"

Just listen to the groans of Qi Qi, Andrew Nicole thought.

It can only be said that Director Nicole is still big-hearted and nervous. Assistant Director Cameron, who was watching the scene in the camera behind the camera, was upset. Hearing this lament, he couldn't help but snorted heavily.

The onlookers immediately became like birds and beasts, but Director Nicole turned his head, danced and said, "Eric performed perfectly, right? I knew it when I was watching "First Fear". The kind of actor who can digest various roles very well!"

Cameron looked at him blankly.

"Oh, do you think there's anything less than perfect? ​​But—"

Cameron interrupted Nicole bluntly, glanced at Gu Qing who had stood up and was putting on his shirt, and said angrily: "A guy with no hair, do you still expect him to play a tough guy? He It’s such a narrow path.”

The director's words were of course angry, he hadn't seen Gu Qing suffering at all now, on the contrary, he himself had a lot of anger.

Nicole didn't know the inside story, and after hearing Cameron's words, he naturally complained about Gu Qing, "The temperament of a tough guy is not judged by the abundance of body hair, and whether the body hair is strong or not is a personal constitution. The problem is, although most Europeans and Americans have relatively thick body hair due to physical reasons, they don't..."

Cameron rolled his eyes and walked away from Nicole who was still nagging. He had never seen someone who could talk so much, and he was almost as annoying as that little bastard.However, the director couldn't figure it out, what kind of trick did Gu Qing use to 'suppress' his cleanliness?

This is so disturbing.

Gu Qing pretended not to notice the director's scorching gaze that almost shot through his skin, so he pretended not to see what was bothering Cameron, and wanted to give him a chance to find out the truth himself.

After filming this scene, Vincent felt that it was time to make a change.So he went to a black market dealer to buy a genetically optimized "normal" identity.

Jerome, played by Jude Law, appeared on the stage. At this time, more than a week had passed since the internal meeting, and he had almost forgotten the "episode" encountered when setting the makeup.

Susan, the instigator, also realized her mistake. After thinking about it afterwards, she felt that her male god, who has a Ph.D. At that time, Uma Thurman was mentioned and reminded her in such a tactful way.

So Susan made up her mind, she would act as a reserved makeup artist in front of the male god and the handsome British guy who played with him, and then...she "vented" her enthusiasm to her friends on the Internet.

Of course, Susan has to be a good fan girl who knows her mistakes and corrects them - she went to find Jude Law after he joined the set and apologized to him solemnly: "It was all left behind by the crew of "Tanic". As a result of the aftermath, I learned about the general plot of "Gait Shot" and realized that this is definitely not a gay-themed movie...so please don't think too much about what I said."

Why do these words sound so wrong?Jude Law's first reaction was like this, but before he could react, Susan left, and she had to go back to make up the male god.

And then, Jude Law came back to it completely: "That's all the sequelae left by the "Titanic" crew." Now, just relying on a few words, you think "Gait Shot" is a same-sex movie?If he remembers correctly, the heroine of "Titanic" is Kate Winslet, their British actress; Eric Xavier plays her fiancé Carl; there is still a male lead , is Leonardo DiCaprio.This, no matter how you look at it, is the standard configuration of a love triangle, right?

Even more confused and even more confused, Jude Law put this mess of thoughts behind him when he was filming. This is his first Hollywood film, and he doesn't want to make any mistakes.

It would have been even better if that inexplicable makeup artist hadn't been watching with staring eyes not far away.

——Jude Law really misunderstood Susan on this point. Susan was not imagining any homosexual themes, but was waiting for the next benefit.She found out, and her male god will show off his beautiful body (?) several times in the next scene, completely naked! ! !

The welfare role Susan mentioned actually refers to Vincent cleaning his body.In today's society, even if it's just dander, or saliva, or even just grease on paper, as long as they collect it, they can pass genetic testing to detect your identity.Therefore, to be cautious, Vincent must clean his body every day, try to remove peeling, nail shavings and hair, etc., and try to hide his "unqualified" self in the "qualified" world.Such a scene is mentioned no less than three times in the script, and it is very metaphorical, which means it is indispensable.

But before this scene comes, Gu Qing has other things to do outside the scene.

"Romeo and Juliet Postmodern Passion" starring Leonardo will premiere in the United States on November 11. This film is also produced and distributed by 1th Century Fox.This is not the point, the point is that Leonardo invited Gu Qing to be his companion on the red carpet before the premiere.

"Look at the premiere of your "Primary Fear", if I wasn't in Mexico, I would have passed without saying a word, and you are now filming, but you are in the United States."

Gu Qing raised his eyebrows: "So?"

Leonardo continued confidently: "So you should come here without saying a word."
