[US Entertainment] Popular all over the world

"Thank you, thank you." Josie gently lifted the hem of her organza shirt today, and made a gesture of bowing her head and bowing her knees, "I have to say, I am really honored, thanks to the clothing team, thanks to the sponsors, Thanks Paramount...”

She raised her round chin, and the expression on her face was unabashedly triumphant, "The most important thing is to thank God for giving Ms. Josie Horton a perfect face. Oh, she is really human Treasures, Hollywood lights—does anyone want an autograph now that might be worth a lot later?"

"Okay, that's enough, you can act for a while and act well in front of the camera." Amy held back a smile, and pointed Josie's forehead with her finger, "What a narcissistic brat, but this face is indeed not bad. "

Josie just smiled and didn't speak.

Brittany giggled and said, "I'm sure Amy is complimenting you, sweetheart."

Josie hooked her hands, and Brittany was holding her arm like a kitten. The two girls have become quite close not long after joining the group—maybe this is the wonderful fate between the two?

Paul Rudd at the side felt that he seemed a bit redundant, because the atmosphere among the three ladies was too relaxed and happy, making it difficult for others to intervene abruptly, which made it difficult for her always witty sense of humor to be used, so he had to follow along. Show a smile.

At this moment, Josie noticed his embarrassment, and stretched out her hand and said, "It seems that we haven't formally greeted. It takes a long time to shoot together."

"Of course, I believe we will get along well. Just call me Paul." Luther shook her hand, and his smile became more natural now. Like an unlucky guy who went to the wrong bathroom, but I have to say, your relationship is really good."

"Hi, Paul, I'm Brittany, and I play the 'Moss' who has a crush on you in the movie." Brittany smiled and shrugged, and said hello before saying: "Oh, that's inevitable, we started from the audition We've known each other since childhood, if it wasn't for Josie, I would have missed this role."

Josie smiled and interfaced: "Hey, Brittany dear, it's not my credit, but you deserve it, and you can ask Amy if you don't believe me. And I think it's even luckier that we didn't miss each other, do you understand?"

"I know, we are already friends." Brittany's big watery eyes are charming, "but you gave me courage at that time, which is very important to me-you don't understand why you What did I bring?"

At that time, Josie didn't think that she would gain a sincere friend by her casual remark, but now, looking at Brittany's familiar yet unfamiliar face, she temporarily lost her eloquence and could only smile. Yes.

Oh my friend……

It's such a distant term.

Josie's best friend is her sister.

In addition, she also had friends who grew up together, but became strangers after many years; she had a friend in the dormitory of college, who later made her suffer for a man; she also met on many social occasions. Friends, they never mind adding insult to injury for profit.

Her father once warned her that the relationship between friends is very illusory, and there is nothing in this world that will not be betrayed, except for the interests and power in his hands--it's so pitiful, the old man who said this is not Believed in the mistress and the illegitimate child, so that the betrayal came unexpectedly.

In contrast, Josie's childhood sweetheart "friend" had extended a helping hand to her, but it was a pity that Josie was still young at that time, and being young meant being more impulsive and extreme. The betrayal of their relatives actually caused the misunderstanding between the two to deepen.

And once the grudge occurs, it will be difficult to return to the beginning.

Josie's smile became a little sad, and she looked at Brittany in front of her, her eyes slightly dazed.

I hope you don't let her down this time.

The field manager over there made a ready gesture to Amy, and Amy then reminded: "It seems that you are all in the play, children, come and take a seat."

After a while, the field manager began to shout: "Keep quiet at the scene!"

The microphones are very sensitive, so a shout like this lets everyone know that filming is about to start.

The assistant director said: "Start recording—"

The sound engineer responded: "Recording started."

The assistant director continued: "Start filming—"

The photographer said: "The filming has started."

The movie "Leading the Coquettish", the first scene, the first time.

Snapped--

Field record board.

Amy Heckerling yelled, "Action!"

The shooting of Josie's first official movie finally started.

The heroine of "Leading the Coquettish" is Xueer, a rich girl from California. The 16-year-old Xueer is the daughter of a barrister. Apart from going to school, her daily life is shopping and swiping her father's card. She is a man of the school.Xueer is smart and beautiful, with a witty eloquence. She made up a few stories and easily improved her grade from C to B. The teacher was helpless.

The teacher said that Xueer's poor debate could not pass her grades. Xueer was depressed, but when she was shopping, she had a whim and tried to improve the teacher's mood by pulling the red line, so she got better grades.Then she met the transfer student Tai, and was going to help the ordinary Tai become a popular girl and find a boyfriend.

However, Tai's change is beyond Xueer's expectation, not only taking away Xueer's popularity and status on campus, but also frankly asking Xueer to help match her with Xueer's stepbrother...

It can be said that although this story is taken from Austin's "Emma", it basically has no connection with the original work. It is just a light-hearted comedy.

Cher has everything any 16 year old girl could want.

Beautiful looks, countless fashions, a wealthy family, a loving father, a caring stepbrother...and many friends.

Everyone is liking her.

This kind of life is so perfect, it's almost like a spin-off movie of Barbie doll, only Barbie's little boyfriend Ken is missing.

Sixteen-year-old "Josie" might have enjoyed being surrounded by people because she craved love and attention, but now Josie sees it as a job.

While analyzing what Amy Heckling wanted, she recalled her twelve or thirteen-year-old self at the filming scene.

What was Josie like back then?

Her pair of parents who were originally well-matched are not yet inseparable, and her twin brothers and sisters are just in their prime. One entered the family business as an heir and was praised by the board of directors;

It can be said that Josie back then was the sister-in-law and good sister of countless star-chasing girls and teenagers, and she could be called a template for a winner in life.

It was only later that a man-made car accident destroyed all the good things.

Huh, the turning point of her life always seems to be related to the car accident?

In front of the camera lens——

Qiao Qian showed a sweet and carefree smile, she didn't know the sufferings of the world, and she didn't know about love and hatred. The teenage girl hadn't started her love life yet, and all she wanted in her mind was the simplest happiness in her wanton youth. .

Amy Hekling said "Calm", and after watching a video playback on the monitor, she gave the first pass.

It's a smooth start, but it's only the beginning.

Josie has a good memory and she can recite her lines fluently, but that doesn't mean the same is true of the other actors in the scene.

"Xue'er, I think..." Paul Rudd got stuck and scratched his hair, "Sorry, I forgot the words."

Amy Heckling didn't accuse anyone, but asked habitually, "Do you need a teleprompter?"

As a director, she is simply too gentle.

But this is just a novice benefit on the first day of starting the machine... The female director went crazy like a roaring lioness.

"No, I think I can do it." Luther said.

"Two minutes for you." Amy nodded, "Let's do it again."

The 2 minutes came quickly, but this time it was Josie who made the mistake. Amy thought she was acting fine, but she forgot the camera position during the performance, and most of her face was blocked by the back of Paul Rudd's head.

Josie apologized right away.

It's not that she can't remember Amy's pre-arranged positions, but whenever she starts to perform, she tends to be too focused and completely forgets that there is still a position.

But if she was asked to keep track of her positions, her performance status would be greatly reduced.

This is also a problem she encountered in the last crew.

Ernest's solution is to give her more close-ups and close-up shots, minimize the mid-range shots, and use Josie's advantages in micro-expression and emotional rendering to highlight her face.

It can be said that until now, Josie has not formally studied acting, nor has she learned it.

The well-known Stella Adler acting class, she attended a few classes, but it was of limited use to her.

For Josie, acting is a form of empathy.

Experience the emotions of the characters, bring yourself into the characters, and decide the behavior according to the will of the characters. This is the whole process of her performance.

So she can't play the kind of characters that have nothing in common with her, such as Louise Rainer's "The Great Earth", Jane Wyman's "Peasant Girl", Bette Davis and Joan Fontaine's " "Langui's Surprise"... Although Betty and Joan probably played in their true colors.

Josie also only played the role of "Cher" in her true colors.

But she doesn't have the experience and level of the two seniors who have been immersed in film art for many years. At present, she barely cheats with her natural camera sense, and she still has to learn.

After every day of filming, Josie's whole body was like a squeezed sponge, she didn't even have the strength to drive home, so she parked her repaired Ferrari in the garage where the filming took place, and took a taxi back to San Mony Card.

Sure enough, it is necessary to hire a driver and assistant.

Josie, whose body was almost hollowed out, took a fragrant bubble bath, and after basic care from head to toe, she felt alive.

She put on her nightgown and went downstairs. Dorota had already cooked a simple dinner and was watching "One Flew Over the Sea of ​​Love" on the sofa in the living room, which was a popular soap opera on FOX.

Josie glanced at it as she passed by, and it seemed to be pretty.

"There is a part of the gap between the filming of "Leading the Show" and "Life is Beautiful because of You". I suggest you find a chance to perform a cameo in a TV series."

In the restaurant, Josie received a call from Martha.

"Yes." Josie said, "but it's not very necessary."

Martha said, "Tell me your reason."

Josie put down the fork and wiped the corners of her mouth, "There are too few characters suitable for my age group. The characters with only a few lines or the script are too bad are not attractive to me. My idea is to first Finish the film at hand, and then think about other things."

Films of such fine quality as "Leadership" are hard to come by, but if Amy Heckling's script is a little bloody, or the budget for the costume team is a little less, the role of Cher may become mediocre. It's no different from normal teen movies.

Now that Josie had gotten the piece of cake she wanted the most, the rest of the after-dinner snacks became less important, so she naturally became picky.

Come to think of it, she's just starred in an upcoming phenomenal movie, and is there a role that goes elsewhere for a slim open audition for a few lines?

Of course, there are still movies that are suitable for Josie to play the leading role, but instead of spending extra energy, it is better to seize the opportunity in front of her and go all out to complete the filming of "Leading the Show". This is her most important thing at present.

Martha seemed to think about it for a while before answering: "You are the boss, listen to you."

Josie finished her dinner, while Dorota was still watching her soap opera with relish, and she didn't stop doing things, she was sorting the ball of wool.

She couldn't help being curious, and asked, "Dorota, what are these balls of wool used for?"

"Oh! This is for knitting Christmas stockings and Christmas sweaters." Dorota looked at Josie almost lovingly, "If you still want a Christmas scarf, remember to tell me in advance, the color you like better."

Josie was not pretentious, and while standing against the wall, she told Dorota: "I don't want a Christmas sweater, Dorota, but I want a red and white Christmas scarf and a Christmas hat of the same color. Hats for Christmas - can they be put in a Christmas stocking?"

Handmade, it's very warm just thinking about it... She seems to have rarely received similar gifts.

Dorota agreed with great satisfaction, and vowed to guarantee that the finished products she wove would definitely be more exquisite and beautiful than those sold in department stores.

Josie watched TV with her for a while, then went for a walk in the garden to digest food, and lay down on her big soft bed before 10:30.

good night.

Tomorrow is another beautiful day.
