[US Entertainment] Actor

"Good morning, Ebert, are you feeling better?"

"Morning, Ebert, it's great that you look much more refreshed!"

As soon as he arrived at the crew, Ebert received warm greetings from the staff and co-actors. His popularity in the crew has always been very good. He is the youngest member of the crew of "White Night Chaser", with a gentle temper and very popular with Christopher Nolan and Al Pacino value the crew, and no one will not open their eyes and make life difficult for him.

Ebert squatted between Al Pacino and Hilary Swank as usual, and the latter gave him a warm hug: "It's great to see you recover!"

Ebert responded to her with a big laugh: "Yeah, sitting on the bed and watching TV every day, my body is almost stiff. It's better to go back to the set as soon as possible."

After the two exchanged pleasantries, the old man Al walked slowly to his side and patted his shoulder lightly: "Have you figured out how to shoot the scene two days ago? Chris has been waiting for your answer."

Ebert immediately covered his eyes, showing a loveless expression: "Oh, Al, you don't have to use ambiguous words like 'waiting for my answer'. How is Chris feeling these two days?"

"It's not bad, as long as you perform to the level you should, he will never lose his temper."

"Then I'm relieved." Ebert smiled slightly, his face brimming with confidence, "I haven't been idle these two days, and I should be able to meet Chris's request."

Although Christopher Nolan is a young director, his influence cannot be compared with big-name actors such as Al Pacino and Robin Williams, but Nolan is full of talent, has great control over the crew, The cameraman's skills are also top-notch, and he has established his authority in the crew from the very beginning.

After a while, the assistant director came over to announce to the actors the content of the day's shooting, and Ebert's previously unfinished parts were also arranged.In fact, there are only two important scenes left for Ebert now, one is the scene where Domo and Hap argue in the hotel, and the other is the scene where Domo misses and kills Hap in the thick fog , once these two scenes are over, Ebert can return to Los Angeles.

There are two reasons why Christopher Nolan has such strict requirements. On the one hand, there are too many big names in the crew. If only big names perform well, the gap in acting skills of other actors will be very obvious, which will appear abrupt instead. The film has gathered a combination of big companies, Oscar winners, and famous producers. If the quality of the film is not enough to match the lineup, Nolan will live up to his own reputation.

"Al, Albert, are you ready?"

Al and Ebert looked at each other, they threw away the script in their hands, and started filming this scene.

"Hasn't anything changed? What do you think we came to the Flounder Fishing City for?" Ebert's face quickly showed anger. Respect and have to suppress emotions.

In the distance, Christopher Nolan nodded lightly: "It's a little faster than the state of entering the play two days ago. He seems to know how to perform this scene."

Assistant director Mike Jonathan echoed: "Indeed, the details are more in place than a few days ago."

"Buck thought Charlie needed an assistant to let us come." The expression on Al's face was still so casual, which made Ebert sigh and shake his head, with a slight desperation in his eyes: "Buck thought the internal affairs team would come to me, he said yes gone."

Obviously, for Harp, who was just an ordinary police officer, the power of the internal affairs team made him feel fear, and he was very unwilling to face this reality.

Ebert spent two days thinking about what kind of person Harp is, whether he is an upright policeman, or a coward who only escapes after committing a crime, or whether he can no longer bear the pressure and tries to surrender to the internal affairs team... …Ebert has been thinking about this problem for the past two days. After peeling off the layers of Harp's emotions, he is naturally handy in acting.

Ebert only felt that he was acting well, and Nolan also felt that his performance at the moment was sufficient to meet his requirements, but the person who felt the most about Ebert's performance on the set was Al Pacino, who had a direct role with him.

When playing with Ebert a few days ago, Al only felt that his understanding of the role of Harp was still superficial and not deep enough. As an old man with rich acting experience, Al could see his problems at a glance, but Al is more used to letting the young man understand the role he is playing. Unless the young man is desperate, Al will take the initiative to tell him about the performance problems.

Today, he discovered that Ebert's talent was stronger than he had imagined.Without receiving professional guidance, he was able to play the role of Harp so profoundly only with his own understanding. Among the young people Al Pacino has worked with, Ebert's talent is enough to rank among the top three.

"Wolfield called me into his office for three hours yesterday, three fucking hours!" At this moment, Ebert has completely lost the appearance of a handsome and beautiful boy before makeup. Anxious, like a lion trapped in a cage.The purpose of Harp's narration of these is just to get Domo's understanding, but Domo tells him not to surrender.

He thought Duomo was innocent and pure, so Duomo didn't have to worry about the punishment of the internal affairs team, but he, a policeman who made mistakes, was doomed to fall into the abyss of darkness.He didn't know that Duomo, whom he trusted, also made a mistake, and Duomo decided to bear it, so he could never understand Hap's desire to surrender, nor could he agree.

"He's trying to get you out of your way, man, that's all."

"I've talked to Trish, I'm sorry, I have to compromise." Ebert shook his head lightly and shrugged, trying to look relaxed, but obviously, his disguise was useless, it would only make people see him Feeling guilty and bewildered.

"Nothing will happen to you. You are a great hero. With your reputation, he wouldn't dare to touch a finger of you!" Seeing that Al had been persuading him, Ebert's emotions gradually became agitated, his tone There is also an indistinguishable sarcasm in it.Ebert got stuck here the first two times, and Nolan has not announced a timeout until today. Ebert knew in his heart that his performance should have passed.

"The problem is my reputation. Do you think that you will take you seriously if you kill a few drug dealers Walfield? Do you think this will make them shine? They want to catch big fish, Fished me through you."

Ebert looked at Al with a puzzled expression.

"But you're innocent, Will."

"Yes, I'm a good cop, but they can always find a way to deal with you." Al Pacino's performance was very flat, and Ebert felt as if the real Domo was sitting opposite him, chatting with him God, this made him cheer up.

"Nonsense, you have no reason to let them arrest you." Ebert shook his head. He believed that the things Al said could happen, but this obviously contradicted his understanding of the police profession.

His expression gradually became desperate.

He thought that his surrender might gain some life, but now, he seemed to be caught in a dilemma. Even if he retreated, he might drag Al down.

Christopher Nolan called out to the photographer at this time: "Closer shot, pay attention to Harp's eyes."

Ebert's eyes are as clear as lake water, but at this moment, the despair condensed in those eyes seems to have materialized. He is not so much staring at Al hoping to get a comforting result, it is better to say that he is staring at Al. own foggy future.

The kind of despair that makes people want to stand beside him, pat him on the shoulder, and give him some comfort.

The female staff members in the crew all closed their eyes at this moment, unable to bear to continue watching.

Ebert's performance didn't stop at all: "I want to try it, brother, I still have to support a family, and Wolffield promised me a probation."

"We are the police, it's not just about us, it's about all the people who depend on us, all the people with families, I've been a good policeman all my life, you ruined it so easily, why, for an internal affairs team Is your bastard the Chief of Police?"

Ebert pinched his forehead, his eyes were distracted: "Aren't you finished, sorry, I want to compromise." That kind of despair immediately covered his whole body, and he just looked at Al coldly, and no longer sought his advice .

The waiter in the restaurant asked what they wanted to eat, and Ebert immediately showed a relaxed look, and laughed with the waitress: "Are you doing the work here alone?"

He smiled and asked Al what he wanted to eat, but Al just stared at him and left the restaurant stiffly.

Ebert twitched the corner of his mouth, but said nothing.

The scene was finally filmed.At the moment Christopher Nolan announced the end, Al Pacino was the first to raise his hand and clap: "Good job, kid!"

Others also sent encouragement to Ebert.Ebert smiled and thanked everyone for their compliments.He was really happy, not only because he just successfully finished filming a scene, but also because the scene just now was so hearty, he really enjoyed it very, very, very much!

That's why he's bent on being a good actor.When he became the character he played, he even felt that the world belonged to him, that exhilarating feeling that made people want to sweat, he almost wanted to do it again!
