A specific person's life cannot be fully shown in movies, and Nash is no exception. For example, he has been married several times, or he has had several gay relationships, and even had an illegitimate child at the age of 20. These things do not appear in the movie. Of course, it's hard to say whether these are true or not. As I said before, when someone makes achievements that no one else can achieve, then the picky person will definitely start with his life, family, and behavior habits.
Therefore, although the biographical film allows the director to handle artistically, an excellent biographical film that can be recognized by both the audience and the prototype must be careful to handle those controversial points, rather than using it as a gimmick like "Crazy Cello". —This is the first thing Angela has to learn.
In addition, there must be good ideas for the concentration and generalization of the prototype life. For example, in "A Beautiful Mind", the grand theory of chasing girls is used to illustrate Nash's game theory, or three illusions are used to make the devil and struggle in Nash's brain outside. In chemistry, they're all excellent - this is the second thing Angela has to learn.
Although the novel of "The Pianist" is also a biographical type, its calm and even cold tone distinguishes it from ordinary biographical novels from the very beginning. That's why Angela chose "A Beautiful Mind". If she wants to achieve her goal, she has to fully learn the advantages of the two films and combine them.
In the city of Cambridge, about a few hundred feet away from the Massachusetts Building, at the red brick arch stairs, a good show was being staged. A middle-aged man was pinned to the ground by four people. He struggled desperately and kept shouting: "Come on people, they're Russians!"
And the students gathered around in twos and threes, staring blankly, not knowing what happened. The middle-aged man who was pinned to the ground began to shout to his friend for help, but his friend picked up a little girl and turned his head away from him.
"Stop!" The voice came from behind the camera, Angela withdrew her gaze on the monitor, and then gave a thumbs up to the studio: "Very good, this shot is over, take a break."
Following her words, several people on the ground immediately stood up and slapped them for a while. The group of Harvard students who were drawn around to act as extras also began to buzz.
"Lumer, wait for the camera to shoot from here." Angela set up a task for the photographer after turning around in place for a few times.
She walked to the place where Russell fell before and made a gesture: "Go past them, instead of Nash's perspective, so try to be as short as possible. Dr. Rosen's thigh can appear on the edge of the camera, and others don't have to. ."
Several actors, including Russell, chuckled, and Angela went on to Paul Bettany with her hands framing each other: "Then put Paul and Dakota in the frame.
Followed her head to the two actors, one big and one small: "Paul, you did a good job just now, continue to maintain that state and emotion. Pick up Dakota, take a look, sigh, turn around, that's it."
"No problem, I've walked by it several times." Paul Bettany, known as "the guy who looks like Jude Law but is cheaper," gave a thumbs up with confidence.
"As for you, Dakota, you are also very good, and you must continue to maintain it." Angela leaned over and smiled and touched the little girl's head, "In addition, your uniform is very beautiful."
"Thank you, if I can perform well, can you send me a few more autographs." Dakota's big eyes blinked, and the little girl's innocence and cuteness could be seen at a glance.
"Of course it's fine, but..." Angela rolled her eyes. "Whether or not you perform at a high level is up to me. Don't you worry that I will turn white into black?"
"Could it be that Miss Genius, who is a model of American women, would deceive a child?" the little guy asked very seriously. Angela was stunned for a moment, and then she burst into laughter. This flattery was really powerful.
She smiled and touched the little girl's head again, straightened up and was about to go back to continue. At this time, among the students who were wearing the clothes of the 1960s and 1970s and acting as extras, a loud voice came: "Miss Angela, can I rush down to help later? You know, as Harvard It is absolutely impossible for students to stand idly by in the face of such a situation!"
"If you dare to rush over, I will let someone set you up and throw you out." Angela replied without looking back.
Several of these guys are characters who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and they often want to make trouble. Of course, they were still sensible and didn't mess around in the middle of the shooting and didn't cause major problems, otherwise Angela would have let them throw them out long ago.
"Your water." As soon as he returned to his position, the assistant handed pure water to Angela.
"Thank you." Although she responded with a smile, but the smile seemed to be squeezed out no matter how she looked. Her current life assistant is none other than Alizee, who will be 16 years old soon!
God knows how she would come to him and say that she wants to earn some pocket money, so she hopes to be her life assistant in these few months. Angela couldn't refuse because Alizee had been her assistant before.
But who instigated her to do this? Drinking water, she was puzzled. To be honest, Alizee, a life assistant, is still very caring. Although she doesn't live with her for as long as Annie, she still understands her various habits. It's just that if no one reminds Alize, the girl will definitely not take the initiative to ask for it.
God, she's only 16. Angela thought with some annoyance, and Annie's face appeared in front of her again.
Today is obviously not the time to think about problems, and Angela hasn't come up with a reason. A tall and beautiful figure has come to him: "You always look confident when you direct."
"If a person doesn't even have self-confidence in the process of directing, then don't be a director." Angela raised her head and shrugged. "It's like this no matter what you do, so are you ready, Kate?"
"Your answer just now is my answer." Kate folded her arms with a smile.
Angela shrugged, then patted Kate's arm with a smile: "Welcome to Boston, when did you arrive?"
She resisted the urge to come forward and hug. There were many people on the set, and it was just north of the law school... "Legal Blonde" starring Jessica is being filmed.
"The plane was late, so I just arrived. I put my luggage in the villa and handed it over to Annie and came right over." Kate explained with a smile, and then looked at the middle of the set: "I shouldn't have missed anything, right?"
"It's just a little bit," Angela said, staring at Kate's obviously tired face. "Actually, it's okay if you don't come today. You have no role in Harvard anyway."
"Since you make time for me to observe Chloe's performance, of course you can't miss a minute and a second." Kate replied in a low voice, "From my own point of view, I also don't want to be completely led by others during the performance. go."
Angela sighed softly, lowered her voice, and said, "Then observe carefully."
Then continue to shoot, Russell's acting is really superb. Especially when the shot of him being pressed to the ground was shot from above, the look of despair and helplessness on his face made the unrelated people around him look unbearable. Russell himself also sat on the ground for several minutes after Angela called to stop because he was too involved in it.
However, after seeing Kate, this guy reposted it in a solid manner, and complimented him in a meaningful way.
"Your performance in The Matrix is amazing, like a female leopard walking in the dark, very wild, and instantly attracts people's attention. By the way, your body is really good Great," Russell and Kate said during the break as they chatted.
"Has anyone ever said you're very talkative, Russell?" Kate said with a smile.
"It actually has nothing to do with whether you can speak or not. When you fully express your feelings in words, any words are very pleasant." Russell said seriously.
"The problem is that no matter how rich a language is, it is impossible to fully express one's own feelings. Human vocabulary is actually very poor." Angela, who had been eavesdropping for a long time, finally couldn't help but interject.
Without waiting for Russell to speak, she pointed to the studio again: "Please get ready to start, Professor Nash."
"By the way, Jesse is living with me today, and Nat is also preparing for the next semester's classes at school. How about we have a small party?" Following Angela, he said to Kate next to him.
"Jesse is in Boston too?" Kate suddenly looked surprised.
"Yes, she's filming the exterior at the Law School right now. If you paid attention when you entered Cambridge, you should have noticed." Angela shrugged, "Nat might be over there too."
"It's a coincidence." A complicated look flashed in Kate's eyes, but after seeing Russell, who was depressed and left because of being left out, he laughed again in a low voice: "It's rare to see you like this."
"Like this? What does it look like?" Angela asked in confusion.
But Kate looked at her with a smile but didn't speak, Angela immediately reacted and rolled her eyes.
I don't know if it's because the director is unhappy or something else. In short, today's shooting is about to end, but the last few shots are still not enough. Either feel that Russell's fist on the doctor's face is boring, or that Russell doesn't show a feeling of being nervous and flustered, in short, something is wrong.
"Let's take a 20-minute break, and then I'll think about it." Angela said after thinking for a long time and exchanging opinions with the assistant director. It seems that the main reason for the previous NG still did not achieve the effect she wanted.
However, as I said before, today is indeed not a good day to think about things. After Angela turned around for a few minutes and exchanged opinions with the assistant director and the cameraman again, the two women came over from the outside in tandem.
"Angie!" Jessica waved excitedly, took a few steps forward and hugged Angela gently.
"Have you finished filming today's scene?" Angela asked with surprise, "I was going to see you when it was over, but I didn't expect you to come first."
Then she said hello to Natalie who was following her: "Hi, Nat."
Natalie didn't speak, but smiled as a response.
"It's over, otherwise I'll appear in front of you wearing a costume." Jessica said with a sigh, "I should have come to see you when I was resting, although the costume is a bit too pink, so I wear it on my body. Still pretty good."
"Hi, Jesse, Nat." Kate came over to say hello at this time.
"Let's talk first, I still have a few shots to shoot here, and I can go back after finishing work." Angela raised her hand and said this, then smiled apologetically and went to discuss with the assistant again.
In a few minutes she got the crew moving again: "Cheer up, guys, let's do it again."
Although most of the attention was still on filming, Angela secretly glanced over there before filming began. Hmm... The three of them seem to be chatting pretty well, but only Kate and Jessica are talking, and Natalie is silently watching. She shouldn't see anything, right
Nat often indulges herself, but when it comes time to make up her mind to figure out something, it's hard to stop her with her smarts. Angela suddenly had a headache. Maybe I am a little too big, should I be more cautious
The headache is a headache, and today's scene will continue to be shot, and Angela can only temporarily forget about it. Maybe it's because I focused all my attention on the director's task. After shooting several times and changing several other angles, I finally passed a shot. This was a small encouragement, and the atmosphere at the scene was instantly mobilized, and even Angela was relieved.
The next shooting will be much smoother, and the seven or eight shots are finally completed after a total of twenty-five or six NGs. When Angela announced that she was here today, there was a sparse applause, which was obviously too annoying.
"You guys had a great time chatting." After handing over the finishing work to the others, Angela came to Kate and the others a few steps, and held the three women affectionately: "If there is more, wait until you return to the villa before continuing. "
"Maybe we can hang out at Harvard and go back?"
"Yeah, I'm also curious to know the difference between Cambridge City and Cambridge Town."
"I can be a guide unless you want to show them around."
Although Jessica, Kate, and Natalie were making demands, Angela couldn't help but put them into the car: "There are opportunities to visit Cambridge, but it should never be now!"
This makes sense. The "Beautiful Mind" crew did not deliberately keep it secret when they settled in Harvard, and "Legal Blonde", which had already started shooting the day before, had already attracted some reporters, so now Angela has returned to work. Once in the spotlight - what's better to report than Miss Genius' new film
"God knows if there are paparazzi wandering around in Cambridge now, you all know that any trivial matter can be hyped up by them," said Angela, who was sitting in the car.
"We all understand you, don't we?" Natalie on the left shrugged.
"Yeah, although you are rude, we didn't say anything." Jessica on the right spread her hands.
"Otherwise we would have thrown you away and went to Harvard together." Kate in front turned her head.
The four of them were all in the same car, so Kate sat in the co-pilot seat and Jessica and Natalie were in the back and sandwiched Angela in the middle. Is this a disguised hug?
"Got it." Angela rolled her eyes in a long voice.
Under Annie's arrangement, the party arrangement in the villa was very satisfying, especially the rich dinner that made several women feast on themselves. Annie put her cooking skills into full play and made many special dishes. Although Kate and the others think it's good, in Angela's eyes, the word good can only be used in Italian food and French food. Chinese food can only be said to be better than Aunt Jennifer - at least it's no longer sticky. - It's still very early to reach the level of grandma. Last time Kung Pao Chicken... Forget it, forget it.
After dinner, several women chatted casually near the bar of the bar, playing some melodious music and drinking red wine and the like.
Of course, whisky is still a thing.
"Why?" Jessica asked curiously, "I've heard you say it countless times, it's scary after drinking whisky, but I've never seen such a scary way. Don't worry, there are so many of us Is there any way to take you here?"
"That's right, Jesse, even if two more people can't do anything to me, if you don't want to get hurt, it's better not to keep me away from that damn whisky!" Angela raised her eyebrows. Just kidding, drink whiskey while you're all in front of you, and if you go crazy and god knows what outrageously scary things will happen.
Jessica, who was rejected, pouted sullenly, and then gave Natalie and Kate a wink when she thought of something. Kate, who had experienced Angela's whisky-drinking scandal, pretended not to see it, but Natalie didn't know why but opened her mouth with interest: "Why don't... let's hide in another room and observe through the crack in the door or something. You. That way even if you get drunk and go crazy it won't affect us, will it?"
Angela squinted and looked at Natalie, hoping to see what she was thinking. But the other party sat on the high stool outside the bar with his legs crossed, and stared at him with a smile as if he had asked casually.
"Can't we talk about something else tonight besides this?" Angela showed a displeased look, and at the same time secretly gave Alizee, who didn't speak much, a helpful look. She didn't ask Kate for help, God knows if it would fall in Natalie's eyes - pulling Alizee over to chat was the right thing to do.
After receiving the distress signal, Alizee squinted her eyes, opened her mouth to reveal her white teeth, and said, "She will hunt you down, no matter which room you are in, she can smell your scent and hear you. her voice, and then find you. You can't escape her clutches unless you run far away in the first place."
