atypical hollywood life

"Cut." Margaret lightly NG dropped Andrew Garfield's performance.

"Emotions are still wrong, you are now at a time when you can't be sure whether James' feelings are for you or your sister, but I can't find that feeling in your eyes at all, you are just like a confused bird now Bambi, but Alan is not this kind of person. Although he looks strong, it is because he has to be strong, but he is still fragile in his bones, but even so, he is still not weak compared to many people. And He has a mental problem, which makes him very contradictory, and you have to let this show." Margaret narrated the character setting seriously.

"What number is it?" Luke, who came with a lot of drinks and snacks, asked the assistant director.

"Article 140." The assistant director replied with a toothache.

I never expected that after changing from an actor to a director, Margaret turned into an obsessive-compulsive disorder!

Who would be so weird to find a scale and a measuring cup to measure the water in a prop cup?There is also the angle of placement of the props, Misha is on the verge of tears, every prop in the set has to be photographed to save the location, not to mention the shape is outlined with chalk like a crime scene, absolutely not allowed in the next shooting If there is any mistake, if the same scene at the same time is shot on location, the time, temperature and brightness must be recorded. If the natural light is not enough, the artificial lighting must reach the level of the previous shooting... the level of the tortoise It's almost beyond James Cameron, almost approaching Hollywood's prestigious virgin male David Fincher!Those who hear it are sad, and those who see it cry.

And the big devil Margaret over there is still communicating with Andrew Garfield, "The human brain is a very sophisticated instrument. When expressing emotions, even if it is the same emotion, the time and the corresponding object Different effects will also result in different expressions..."

"You can rest for a while and feel this emotion carefully." Margaret said after finishing the explanation in the movie.

Andrew nodded, didn't speak any more, and sat directly on the edge of the set to feel Alan's emotional state.

He was actually very surprised when he received Margaret’s invitation, because he had never heard of the Oscar winner’s achievements in the director’s work before, and it was too risky to accept the work directed by such a person .But the agent eventually convinced him.

"Listen to me, Andrew, Margaret Jane is definitely more than just an actor. Not to mention the forces behind her, just the relationship network she has built up in Hollywood over the years is a huge number, and With the film company she owns, there is nothing wrong with being friends with such a person. Moreover, the script sent by the other party is very reliable, and the characters are very attractive. No matter how bad the director is, it will not be wrong What's more, Margaret Jane's level may not be as bad as we imagined. She has been a producer of many films produced by Wood Torch. Besides, which director has not had the first time? Very There are actually quite a few directors with professional backgrounds, and there are many outstanding ones. This woman has worked with many big directors, and there are also assistant directors and cameramen to be the final goalkeepers. You don’t have to worry too much at all.” Mr. Manager looked Said excitedly.

No matter how many people in Hollywood want to get on this lady's tailwind, they have no chance. Andrew can't let this opportunity go away now.

Although Margaret Jane has been slack in her acting career in the past few years, it is not that there are no high-quality products. This is the case with "Prometheus" and "Fury Road". The latter also brought her She won the laurel of a Venetian actress and became the first actress in Europe's top three and Oscar Grand Slam.

To be honest, there is really nothing left for an actor to pursue if he does this. He has got everything he should have, and he has got what he should not have. Is there any point in the future?If you want me, I'll change careers too, Mr. Manager thought secretly.

At the beginning, everyone thought that her lack of acting in the past few years was because she went to become a producer. After all, many Hollywood actors would do this after reaching the peak of their careers, and even many actors who were not particularly brilliant in the acting career would do it early Change jobs and set up your own company, and get on the thigh of a big company to pick up some outsourcing projects to start a second business.For example, Reese Witherspoon, this lady shifted her focus to her own production company after she lost her Oscar. Later, after winning the Oscar in the Oscars, she became more comfortable in this aspect; Speaking of Jennifer Garner, she started her own production company when she was still an ordinary TV actor. After divorcing Ben Affleck, it seems that she wants to put all her experience into her career-anyway, the children have grown up Now, you don't need to worry as much as you did when you were a child.

Drew Barrymore and Leonardo DiCaprio are countless big-name stars who started their own production companies.

But Margaret Jane is undoubtedly one of the best. Although Wood Torch's reputation outside the circle is not obvious, it has a good reputation inside Hollywood.Although most of their own films are women-oriented films, there are also wonderful independent films for all people, and the most important thing is that this company is very good at mining film IP, and has cooperated with many big companies. .

Although Andrew is a British-American dual citizen, fundamentally speaking, everyone thinks that he has more British attributes, which makes him weaker than many people in terms of innateness.If you can catch up with the line of Margaret, it will undoubtedly be very beneficial. This is a famous British actor who likes to use British actors. Many British actors who often work with Wood Torch were recommended after working with her. ...

The benefits are all taken into account, except that Margaret is an obsessive-compulsive agent. Mr. Broker is very upset now.

In fact, Andrew Garfield, the leading actor in the movie, is also very hard now.

When we first met, Margaret, who had a plain face, seemed younger than him, and had a sunny smile on her face, as if she was a college student who hadn't been influenced by society.

But who knew that this person with a particularly cheerful smile would turn into a terrifying big devil when he was working?

No, no, no, Margaret has a very good temper, she never gets angry, even if she doesn’t smile so brightly at work, she is still gentle, even when she NGs an actor’s performance, she is soft-spoken , A little anger and anxiety will not show up.Moreover, she will also give lectures to actors, share her own experience, and explain things in simple terms, sometimes more clearly than those acting training classes she attended before. To be honest, this is probably the biggest advantage of a director who changes from an actor , They always know what emotions they need, and excellent actors can also help their current actors get into the situation better. Andrew feels that his acting skills will definitely improve after finishing this movie.

But this doesn't mean that he feels comfortable doing a shot more than 100 times.To be honest, he originally thought that there was no such persistent director except David Fincher, but he seemed nothing compared to Margaret. This is simply a comparison between a child and an adult.Poor little Bambi wept silently in his heart, it seemed that he wanted to be bullied even more.

"Still torturing him?" Luke walked up to Margaret and handed her a bottle of freshly baked juice.

It seems that his dear said that Andrew Garfield has a charming and lovable temperament, and it was not a slogan.

Although he didn't notice this kind of temperament from the other party, how should I put it, Margaret's 'preference' for the other party has already made him fully understand this feeling.

"It's a correction." Margaret emphasized.

The plot of the movie "Heaven on the Other Side" is simple and simple, but also complicated.

The simplicity lies in the obvious context of the film, which is a love story between a man during World War II and his pen pal after his sister died.

The complicated part is that the pen pal who communicated with the other party was himself from the beginning to the end, because after the death of the only relative who depended on each other, Alan's spirit was not very normal. He always thought that he was just ghostwriting for his sister who was blinded by the explosion... …

So the plot of the whole movie is a love history of mental illness, which is supported by the hero's one-man show alone.

Oh, by the way, in order to save costs, Margaret also made a guest appearance as the 'blind' sister of the leading actor. Anyway, she is also a superstar with a salary of 2000 million yuan, how much money she saved for the movie!

It's a pity that Andrew, who played with her, didn't think so. He only felt more pressure.

"Honey, believe me, you are nominated for an Oscar winner, these are not a problem for you." Margaret comforted Andrew's sad face in this way.

Hehe, your husband has been nominated for three Oscars, why don't you ask him if he is under pressure to act with you?The hard-pressed Andrew can only complain in his heart, because he really doesn't have the courage to face the threatening Margaret. Even if he has played Spider-Man, it doesn't mean that he really has the ability of Spider-Man Well, for a woman who can make David Russell, the famous violent man in Hollywood, walk around her, Andrew feels that it is better for him to be obedient.

"So in the end you shot a scene almost two hundred times?" the host of the talk show asked Andrew enthusiastically.

This is crazy, congrats to Hollywood for another OCD director.

"180 twice, actually. Meg is very strict about this aspect. Well, according to what she said, you don't believe in your character yourself. How can you ask others to be convinced by your performance?" Andrew shrugged and said. .

In fact Margaret's words were much more serious.

"You can't even fool yourself. Why do you ask the audience to pay for your performance? This is not a commercial blockbuster with special effects, nor is it a star-studded movie. We are just telling a good story. The only important thing is acting. You have to let people Believe in your performance, resonate with what you show, don’t think the audience is a fool, everyone’s eyes are very bright. A small-budget literary movie should look like a small-budget literary movie, you have to rely on the characters Conquer the audience with the charm given to you." Margaret said to him.

Instead of choosing those newcomers, she paid a relatively high salary compared to independent productions to invite Andrew Garfield to play this role because the complexity of this role is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

And Andrew has been tortured many times, she believes that it is not a problem for the other party to complete the role, it just takes a little longer.There is no need to worry about this, anyway, it is filmed on her own site, the venue fee is saved, and the film is not used, no problem!

Well, no problem.

So the viewers who finished watching "The Paradise on the Other Shore" were tortured enough, especially the emotionally delicate crowd cried themselves into a dog.

"Alan is so miserable. His sister died, and he himself suffered from mental illness. In the end, he had to part with his love. The screenwriter is simply too cruel, woo woo woo." A female audience member cried on her boyfriend's shoulder With a sad face, he completely ignored the other party's unlovable expression.

Why did he, a straight man with a girlfriend, come to the cinema to watch this kind of movie about homosexuality?

He patted his girlfriend's shoulder stiffly, "They still have each other in their hearts..."

What he said was so weak that he really missed such a tall man for nothing.

"But the society at that time did not allow such feelings, so they didn't even dare to be neighbors. They were afraid that people would find out the relationship between them. They could only miss each other silently in the distance and express their feelings by writing letters. , and Alan burned all their correspondence before he died, just to avoid staining James' reputation, it's too cruel..." It's okay if you don't comfort, but it's even worse if you comfort, the girlfriend's tears can't be stopped at all up.

"Honey, that's just a movie, it's not even an adaptation of real people." The boyfriend was helpless.

Really, I have never seen her so sentimental before, why is she so fragile today?

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Alright." The girlfriend sniffed and made a decision.

Again?Jesse was stunned, and even after being abused like this, he still wanted to continue looking for abuse. What is the charm of this film?
