Nathan glanced at Annie secretly, but found that Annie's expression was really difficult to describe in simple words, and Nathan couldn't be blamed for this, because Annie herself couldn't tell the difference-

It is spicy and embarrassing, excited and excited.

Outspoken face-to-face criticism is really uncommon for Annie now. As she said before, there are too many politenesses and compliments in Hollywood Vanity Fair. Then, gradually lost the judgment of his own ability.

Suddenly, she felt the criticism again, and it was a serious discussion. Annie was also a little caught off guard, but after tasting it carefully, she began to become excited, and her body couldn't wait to twist back a little, from the front passenger seat to the back. Looking over, he stuttered a little because he was too excited, "...Do you think so too? Me too! Me too!"

"The scene at the dinner table was really difficult to shoot. It was a scheduling and summary of the relationship between the entire character and family. Jonathan hopes to capture the feeling of Winterberg's 'family dinner'." Annie's mind The memories in Li suddenly became vivid, and the words came out like this.

Jonathan Demme, director of "Rachel's Wedding," who also shot "Silence of the Lambs" and "The Philadelphia Story."

Thomas-Vinterbag, a famous Danish director, in 1995, together with four directors including Lars-von-Till, drafted the "Dogma95 Manifesto" which caused a sensation all over the world, which became the most influential at the end of the century. film movement.

"Dogma" means "dogma" in Danish, and the campaign lists ten clauses, such as that the filming must be far from the set, all props must be found near the set; for example, the sound must be synchronized, Post-production is not allowed; for example, the camera must be hand-held, etc.

The purpose of the movement is simple: to declare war on commercial films that are pompous, technically dazzling, and underwhelming. According to the declaration, it is to use the simplest and simplest means to squeeze out the "truth" hidden in the stories and actors' performances.

The first work in which the entire movement declared war was Winterberg's "Family Banquet" released in 1998. This work can almost be said to be born out of nowhere. It won the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival that year and was nominated for a gold medal. Best Foreign Language Film at the Globe Awards and the British Academy Awards.

"'Family dinner'?" Renly thought about it seriously and complained mercilessly, "Jonathan didn't follow the 'Dogma95 Manifesto', but the scheduling of the shots and the performances of the actors were indeed simplified as much as possible, and the drama was as compressed as possible. It's a serious challenge for actors."

Annie gave a big smile, "God, Jonathan would love to sit down with you and have a deep conversation when he heard this. Indeed, in order to shoot that scene, since the lighting and scheduling had to be simplified, I had to dig out more So many emotions, so I refused to communicate with the cast members for more than a week, and lived with them, but it was like an isolated island, brewing those real emotions, I still remember those filming emotions, wow... that Really…”

"Cough cough."

A coughing sound came from the driver's seat, interrupting the conversation between Annie and Renly, because the sound was so loud that it almost coughed out the lungs, so everyone's eyes were projected towards the sound. , and then you can see the assistant comrade who is driving. He shows an embarrassed but polite smile and reminds, "We have reached our destination."

Annie and Renly exchanged glances and both chuckled, apparently so excited that they didn't even notice it.

It was Renly who took over, "I can be sure now that the rest of the standby time won't be boring."

Annie also laughed and nodded in agreement, "I hope we won't disturb the filming of the crew."

Filming is not as beautiful and romantic as imagined. The hardest, longest and most difficult part of the crew's work is not the performance but the standby.

Biquge

Especially for large-scale commercial films, the entire crew is extremely large and the shooting process is extremely cumbersome. The number of scenes that can be filmed in one day is really limited. Most of the time, the actors need to sit by the side and wait quietly. The whole working time may only need to shoot two times. During the game, the rest of the time is a long standby. The same goes for "War in the Pacific," "Fast & Furious 5," "Edge of Tomorrow," and more.

Top big-name actors will ask the crew to equip themselves with vans, so that they don't have to deal with social situations when they are on standby, and can stay in their vans, relax, or even have a party. Don't play until you're at work.

Therefore, the boring standby process is the most difficult, even more difficult than the performance itself, because in the waiting process, all energy and inspiration are exhausted, lonely and lonely, and it is often difficult to maintain concentration. is a severe test.

In the past, Renly was always used to reading scripts during standby, or listening to music to relax, trying to keep himself in the role as much as possible.

But what is certain is that if you can meet like-minded friends, the standby time can be gathered together to pass the time.

This is also the reason why it is easy to fall in love over time in the crew. Although it is said that part of the reason is that the characters bring emotions, the situation where it is difficult to distinguish between reality and drama is still a minority; more often, it is because of the bits and pieces of getting along day and night, when they are on standby together, they always need to find something to pass the time. , the breeding of affection is inevitable.

When Renly mentioned the standby time, he was actually saying that there were countless opportunities to chat slowly during the standby time, and there was no need to rush for a while; Annie agreed.

When we just met by accident, the carriage was a little dull; but during the short journey, we immediately found a common topic, which must be said to be a kind of ability of Renly.

Renly and Nathan got out of the car first, but Annie's assistant called out to her in time. When Annie turned her head, he hesitated, and finally couldn't hold back, "Anne, Adam..."

Although the words were not finished, the meaning was projected through the eyes.

Annie was stunned for a moment, her thoughts swirling around in her mind, and then she reacted, "Haha, don't worry, Renly is not my type. Adam is." When she got up, Annie blinked wisely, "Besides, Renly is not interesting. Our conversation always revolves around the work itself, and I guess Renly is also consciously keeping his distance. He is a true gentleman. "

The assistant still didn't give up, and muttered beside him, "People used to say that Hugh Grant was a gentleman." As a result, Hugh Grant broke the /prostitute/prostitute/scandal, the focus was not on the prostitute/girl, but on the He humiliated each other, sparked a physical confrontation, and eventually brought in the local police - Hugh Grant was thrown in jail for two nights. "Who knows, gentlemen are not skins used to attract the opposite sex? You see, you have only been together for less than fifteen minutes, and you have started to say good things for him."

"Haha." Annie laughed happily, "Patrick, not everyone only pays attention to the ambiguous/emotional ones." Annie could feel Renly's passion for acting, but she didn't continue. Explain more, because she is not guilty, she walked out of the car completely and generously.

From a distance, Annie could see Renly standing beside the field, looking at the shooting venue; Annie's smile bloomed again, if it wasn't for the assistant's reminder, she would not have regarded Renly as a person at all. Men looked at him, it had nothing to do with whether Renly was attractive, she just regarded him as a colleague.

just colleagues.

"Interstellar" is obviously not the first time Annie has collaborated with handsome guys. Before that, Annie has worked with Jake Gyllenhaal, Jim-Sturgess, James McAvoy, etc. It was a sparkling love movie, but she never fell in love.

Because Annie knows that work is work and emotion is emotion, and the boundaries must be drawn. If you fall in love with a collaborator of the same crew, this will inevitably affect the working relationship; but more importantly, since they can love each other, does this mean that their lover may also fall in love in another movie in the future What about another partner

There are so many handsome men and women in Hollywood, and it is impossible to guard against them.

From her first appearance on stage, Annie has remained calm, even consciously alienated. So far, she has never interacted with anyone in the circle.

In 2008, Anne met her current husband, Adam-Shulman.

Adam used to be an actor, but he was not well-known and did not achieve any results. Later, he changed his career as a jewelry designer. Instead, it gradually became known that he belonged to him. The two met unexpectedly because of the fashion show. In September last year, the two Officially entered the marriage hall, from falling in love to marriage, there has never been a normal occurrence - at least not about her work, public affairs and private affairs must remain relatively independent.

This time, Annie was working with Renly, and Adam knew it too.

Before setting off, Adam joked half-jokingly, saying that Renly is the most attractive bachelor in the world right now, does he need to go to the filming site to experience the charm of each other in person? Annie was amused, and then deliberately teased her husband, saying that he needed to work harder to please her.

Annie's assistant overheard the joke, apparently taking it seriously, and having a lot of brainstorming scenes.

Thinking of this, Annie's mouth rose, took out her phone, and called her husband, "Hey honey, do you know who I just met? Renly-Hall! God, he really is It's charming, someone needs to get nervous, how about it, are you still going to come to the crew now?"

While talking and walking, Annie's figure gradually drifted away. She and her husband needed a little private space for the two of them.
