[US Entertainment] Wild Child

The script is adapted from the "Girl with a Pearl Earring" of the same name published by writer Tracey Chevrolet in 1999. Summer has never read the script before, and the medium expresses both the script and the original work to her, saying that if she thinks the script is okay, she can Arrange for her to meet with Patty Jenkins and the producer first, and the salary is negotiable.

Since "Legally Blonde" is still in theaters, the box office is considerable, and Summer Brook is very popular in the actor market. If you can sign her, you don't have to worry about investing. Not only will existing investors not withdraw their capital, they may also Append.

Meetings and negotiations went quickly, and Summer briefly flew to London for a brief audition with lead actor Ralph Fiennes.

By the end of September, Summer had signed a new contract for the film, and the shooting schedule remained unchanged, from the second week of October to the end of December, a period of 9 weeks.The shooting locations were mainly in Luxembourg and Belgium, and some necessary exterior scenes were shot in Amsterdam and Delft in the Netherlands.

"how are you today?"

"Signed."

"Where was it taken?"

"Luxembourg."

"how long?"

"11 weeks."

"Then—do you want to take me there?" Pretend to have a pitiful voice and a pitiful expression.

Summer suddenly laughed, "What do you think? Do you want to go?"

"Come here." Leonardo patted his leg and motioned her to sit down. "Exactly, I haven't been to Luxembourg yet."

"You always follow me, won't they laugh at you?"

"Who would dare!" He snorted softly, "No one would be so stupid."

This is true.He picks his playmates carefully, people who are used to flattering him all the time, and no one wants to upset him.

He rested his chin on her shoulder, blew into her ear, and whispered a few words in her ear.She bit her lower lip, thought for a while, and nodded.

The name of sleeping in separate beds is not true. Within a few days, on the night of 911, he voluntarily came back to sleep, and Summer did not drive him away again.The terrorist attacks on the east coast seem to have no major impact on the lives of people on the west coast. If you don't read newspapers and TV, there is almost no difference from before.

If you want to talk about the most obvious difference, the security checks at the airport have been fully upgraded, and even big stars have to accept the checks honestly.

Hollywood likes adaptations of original works, generally because excellent original scripts are becoming more and more rare. Original works can at least guarantee a certain audience base, especially adaptations of best-selling books, or adaptations of classic masterpieces, because the readership is huge. Box office revenue is relatively optimistic.

Actors’ attitudes toward script adaptations can be roughly divided into two types. One is to avoid being influenced by the original and various book reviews, and only reads the script, not the original or book reviews; Some related articles on literary theory should also be read. For contemporary authors, you should also read relevant author interviews and creative ideas.

Both Summer and Leonardo belong to the latter.When Leonardo was filming "Border Diary", he became friends with the original author Jim Carroll.Another example is that before the filming of "Runaway Jury", Edward Norton went to watch many court trials-but his father Norton Sr. was a lawyer, and it can also be said that he had a family background and was familiar with the road.

Because Summer is a creative writing major, he will be careful about the original works, do his homework, and be very serious.She chooses scripts and also prefers original works. "Captain Hook" can be regarded as a derivative fan of "Peter Pan", "Interview with the Vampire", "Little Women", "Romeo and Juliet", "Golden Bowl", "Legal Affairs" Pretty Woman, The Runaway Jury, and Girl With a Pearl Earring all have original works or screenplays.

After arriving in Luxembourg, she went to try on the clothes first, and then the hair stylist dyed Summer's eyebrows light blonde and her hair red, and she had to wear a headscarf to cover her hair most of the working time.

The heroine Griet is the daughter of a tile painter. After the tile painter went blind, the family lost their source of income and had to work as a maid in the house of another painter, Vermeer. This is a decline in class status for girls; Mel has a bunch of kids, his wife keeps having kids, he's not exactly poor, but he's not rich either; he has a patron of the arts, a pompous and lewd chauvinist who wants to get his hands on Griet The butcher's son Peter liked Griet, and finally Griet left the Vermeer family and became Peter's wife.

Both the play and the script reflect the low status of women in Europe in the 17th century. Women at the bottom had limited scope of work, limited education, limited outlets, and the possibility of being reduced to playthings; Fortunately, her role is to keep giving birth.

Samo basically didn't talk about work with Leonardo, and the filming was carried out very quickly. During the period, they spent two people's birthdays in Luxembourg. The friends flew from the United States and stayed in Luxembourg until December. The first week, Leonardo returned to Los Angeles to attend the premiere of "Gangs of New York" before returning with him.

Tobey Maguire decided to change his scripting preferences before the release of "Titanic" in order to distinguish himself from Leonardo, and the two often competed in the same film audition.After that he began to focus on some more independent films, which achieved good results.

A few years ago, James Cameron started to develop the script of Marvel Comics "Spider-Man". At that time, he wanted Leonardo to play Peter Parker, but after the script was written, the production company at that time was not satisfied. Project stalled.Afterwards, the copyright of the film adaptation of Spider-Man was transferred to Sony Columbia. After considering well-known directors such as Ang Lee, Tony Scott, and David Fincher, they found Sam Raimi, the director of "Fatal Pleasure". , Leonardo, Heath Ledger, Freddie Prinz Jr., etc. are on the candidate list for the leading actor.

Although Leonardo is a fan of comics, he was not interested in playing a superhero, so he rejected the audition, and turned around and recommended his friend Toby to audition.Sam Raimi signed Toby as the lead actor after seeing Toby's performance in The Cider House Rules. "Spider-Man" was launched in New York in January 2001, and it took 1 months to shoot. Toby started to exercise his abdominal muscles a few months in advance.

Compared with the three little partners, Lucas Haas is a bit unambitious.After puberty, his appearance has not changed much from the child star era, and he still has a baby face. Such a face is very cute during his teenage years, but after he is over 3 years old, he is not suitable for the role of an adult man. Yes, the limitations were too great, so he gave up treatment, and took 24 or 1 soy sauce jobs every year, saying "I still work in Hollywood", and spent most of his time playing.

Leonardo is very kind to his friends, he spends money generously, and takes Lucas with him almost everywhere he goes.The good thing about getting to know each other since childhood is that, under normal circumstances, wives would hate their husbands getting too close to their friends, but here at Summer, there is no such concern; of course, it is also because they both have money, and they don't care about the relationship between Lucas and his friends. The other playmates pay the bills.

Summer, who grew up in a wealthy family, spends money very readily. The young couple are always surrounded by many playmates. In Luxembourg, they also met Irish actor Cillian Murphy, who played the butcher's son Peter.

希里安·墨菲1976年5月出生，比莱昂纳多小1岁半，10月初刚拍完丹尼·博伊尔的科幻电影《惊变28天28DaysLater》。丹尼·博伊尔在拍完《海滩》之后就开始计划开拍《惊变28天》，编剧是《海滩》的作者亚历克斯·加兰。

The same man who was enlightened by Danny Boyle, the two have a common language, Leonardo quickly accepted Xilian as one of his friends, Xilian said He looks shy and shy on the outside, but he is actually a wild young man in his heart, and he fits into this small group very well.

Busy man Steven Spielberg finally set a shooting date for "Catch Me If You" in November, which will start on the second Monday of February 11, February 2002.The pre-production started in early November, including the selection of locations for shooting. According to the shooting schedule, the shooting cycle is 2 weeks, and it is expected to be completed on the first Friday of May.If weekends are excluded, the total shooting time shall not exceed 2 days.

Later in the interview, Leonardo said that he had never seen such an intensive shooting schedule and transitions. He originally thought that the shots that would take 3 days were shot in only 1 day.

It started in Los Angeles, stayed for two weeks, and then transferred to New York.

Summer only stayed with him in New York for three weeks, and when he moved to New Jersey, she remained in New York.

The shooting schedule is so tight that 60 venues have to be moved within 147 days, which means that they usually shoot on a certain boulevard in the morning, then switch to a certain club in the afternoon, and sometimes they have to go back and forth at night to continue the transition.Intensive transitions test the director's field control ability, the team's cooperation and coordination ability, and the physical fitness of the staff and actors.

Leonardo kept his hair long for a few months after "Gangs of New York" and cut it short before Christmas in 2000. After that, he didn't dye his hair darker again. Now it is a dark golden brown.After entering the group, the hair stylist trimmed his hair to the ears, which is a well-behaved teenager hairstyle. He will play a 16-year-old boy in the film, but his actual age is 27 years old.

It was hard work, but luckily the locations were all around New York, so he could go back to New York for the weekend.

On the last Friday in March, just after 3 o'clock in the evening, Summer had fallen asleep.

Dazedly felt that someone opened the door, closed the door, footsteps, someone walked into the bedroom.

She was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, she just vaguely felt that the man had gone to bed and was lying beside her, with his arms around her waist and his face against the back of her neck.

She moved.

"Baby, did you wake up?" Leonardo said softly.

"Leo," she murmured.

"Go to sleep." Rubbing on her neck.

"what time is it?"

"I don't know, it was about 12 o'clock."

"I'm a little thirsty."

He got up immediately, "I'll bring you a glass of water."

He went to the kitchen and opened the cupboard, took out a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the lid, and poured it into her glass.She doesn't like to drink the water directly from the water pipe, because she thinks it has a peculiar smell. She always has natural mineral water produced in various countries at various prices at home, such as Evian mineral water.

When he returned to the bedroom with the water glass, Summer was already half leaning on the head of the bed with his pillow on his head.She took the water glass and smiled at him, "Are you tired?"

"Not tired." He looked at her, her eyes were a little swollen, and she looked very pitiful.Seeing her drink half a glass of water in one breath, put the water glass on the bedside table, and said: "Lie down—"

But he was very anxious, "This afternoon...what did the doctor say? Why didn't you call me? I was absent-minded all afternoon and kept thinking about it."

Summer smiled lazily at him, "That's what you're thinking about? Not me?"

"Of course I miss you! It's the same thing." He leaned closer to her and kissed her face and lips indiscriminately. "Tell me what's going on."

"The doctor said that I am in good health and have no adverse reactions." She blushed, "and said that my body is very easy to get pregnant."

Leonardo was stunned, "What does this mean?"

"The expected date of delivery is at the end of November."

The author has something to say: *Mike Neville did not make "Runaway Jury" and "Girl with a Pearl Earring".It was supposed to be filming the out-of-control jury at the beginning, but it didn’t work out, and then it was agreed to shoot the pearl earrings, but because of Kate Hudson’s withdrawal, the filming didn’t work out.Later he went to shoot the "Mona Lisa Smile" that made Julia Roberts 2500 million.

* "Runaway Jury" was directed by Gary Fried (later "Homefront"). The director of "Girl with a Pearl Earring" is Peter Weber (later filmed "Hannibal Rising").

*Patty Jenkins (Wonder Woman, The Devil) is too junior at this point, but ignore it.There are not many suitable and well-known female directors to choose from.

*Actually, I should have found a British director, but I was too lazy to look it up, so I wrote it casually.

*Vermeer's wife had 15 children, 11 of whom survived.

*Pearl Earrings was originally the female lead of Kate Hudson and the male lead of Ralph Fiennes. Filming started in October 2001, but Kate temporarily withdrew, and later Ralph also quit to film "Maid in Manhattan".After Peter Weber took over the project, filming did not start until the end of 10.
