From the beginning to now, Murphy knows the importance of communication for a production team. Perhaps for a director in his position today, it's nothing to inform the actors of a temporary change of play before shooting. But in that case, the actors don't have enough preparation, which may lead to unexpected situations in shooting.
Of course, some of the changes in the scene, without informing the actors may also achieve better shooting results.
A typical example of this is Bernardo Bertolucci's the last tango in Paris.
Bernardo Bertolucci's 1972 work "the last tango in Paris" has always been regarded as a highly controversial work. During the shooting of one of the strong and treacherous scenes, some of the scenes were changed temporarily without notice and without the consent of the heroine Maria Schneider.
In this film, Marlon Brando's character uses buttery fingers to invade Maria Schneider's lower body. Bernardo Bertolucci once admitted that he used "butter" and actually did it. This idea came to him the morning of shooting with Marlon Brando.
But to some extent, it's terrible for Maria Schneider that benaldo Bertolucci and Marlon Brando do this, because they didn't tell her what would happen during the shooting. Benaldo Bertolucci hopes that Maria Schneider's reaction to be strong is a real reflection of a girl, not an actor's.
It can be said that benaldo Bertolucci wanted Maria Schneider to be able to respond to humiliation, and intended to tell her that she would use butter as a lubricant in order to achieve the desired shooting effect.
It is undeniable that this passage in "the last tango in Paris" has a great impact on most of the audience watching this film.
As for Maria Schneider, few people care about her feelings and whether she really felt humiliated at that time, because that's what benaldo Bertolucci and Marlon Brando want, and little actors like her don't have much right to speak to these two people.
Maria Schneider once told the media that she felt insulted and raped by Marlon Brando and Bernardo Bertolucci
But no one cares about the voice of a weak person.
As the initiator, Marlon Brando does not regret what he did.
Murphy once heard Robert Downey Jr. say that Marlon Brando said at a party in Hollywood - in order to achieve something, you need complete freedom. I don't want Maria to show the humiliation of being raped. I want Maria to feel Rape and humiliation!
After watching this film, many people feel that the * * scene in the film is very real
After the release of the last tango in Paris, it caused a huge controversy. Instead of becoming a big hit, Maria Schneider was attacked crazily. As a result, her life went into darkness. She was deeply involved in a drug scandal, tried to commit suicide, and even used olive oil instead of butter when cooking.
After entering the new century, these things began to spread in the media, just like the rumor that Murphy laundered money for drug trafficking gangs, and became a stain that benaldo Bertolucci could not remove.
Indeed, with the consent of the parties, the director can shoot S.M / 3. P or other messy things. In this case, it will not affect the party's patriotism or other behaviors.
Benaldo Bertolucci's behavior seems to be very disrespectful.
However, there is a fact that can not be denied, no matter in that year or in the new century, the media and the public are widely spreading these scandals. Just like the so-called rumor that Murphy laundered money for drug trafficking syndicates, these scandals have become a moral pollution that may accompany his whole life. However, this basically does not damage his position in the film circle!
In fact, Murphy sometimes asks, why does a director want to make a film like "the last tango in Paris"? Perhaps, as some fans have said, it is largely because the directors who make such films are abnormal in their hearts, and their values and world outlook will be quite different.
However, even if he thinks so, Murphy also thinks that directors' works and personal morality are often separated.
Murphy's change is very simple. James Franco has temporarily adjusted his schedule because he wants to plan the new project with Seth Logan. Tomorrow, he will come to the crew to take part in the shooting. Not only him, but also all the stantons. Except for the role played by James Franco, Robert Downey, Seth Logan and Jonah Hill will all be shooting tomorrow Guest star in the film.
This can be regarded as adding a little topic to the film.
The scene to be changed is very simple. Henry Carville keeps sending the important figures of the evil forces in New York to prison, and the evil faction also has ways to deal with them. One after another, he uses the insane way to get these people into the lunatic asylum. Jay Rachel, as the prosecutor, suspects that there is a ghost behind him. He specially goes to the lunatic asylum to check the situation, and then meets the actor played by James Franco Color.To be exact, James Franco plays the role of a person who is judged to have mental problems.
Whether it's Margot Robbie or Henry Carville, there's nothing wrong with Murphy's change of shooting plan.
The next morning, Murphy and Gail gado were in a traffic jam because of a car accident at Beverly Hills. They came to Venice a little late. When they walked into the studio, the rest of Stanton's gang were almost there.
"Murphy, why is it so late?" Jonah Hill opened his voice and said, "it's not your style to be late."
Robert Downey, Jr. came up, patted Murphy on the arm and lowered his voice. "I went to the state prison the day before yesterday, and Ross is fine."
Murphy nodded his head gently. Robert Downey, Jr. was ready to say something about rose. Gail gado suddenly interjected, "it's late. They're all waiting for us."
"Well." Murphy looked at his watch and asked, "where's that guy James?"
Seth Logan beckoned to him and Gail gado, and replied, "James is still making up."
Except for James Franco, Robert Downey, Jonah hill and Seth Logan are just guest stars, with simple makeup and clothes.
After chatting with several people, Murphy went back to the crew and was busy with his work. Robert Downey, Jr. and others saw that the shooting would not start until some time ago. They walked around the set to have a look.
"Murphy, our guest role is a group of lunatics."
As he walked, Jonah Hill shook his head and said to Seth Logan, "in our project, the unrepentant character, he is the best one to play."
Robert Downey, Jr. asked with interest, "what project do you have? Ready? "
"Almost." Seth Logan raised his eyes. "Murphy has read the script and plan, agreed to invest, and 20th century fox is basically sure to release it."
"All of you?"
Seeing Seth Logan nodding, Robert Downey Jr. became interested. "Don't forget me, leave me a role."
Seth Logan said with a smile, "it's ready for you."
In fact, he has already planned it. In that film, James Franco is still James Franco, Murphy Stanton is also Murphy Stanton, Jonah hill is Jonah hill, and Robert Downey Jr. is naturally Robert Downey Jr. Stanton's followers all play themselves.
That is to say, all actors will act in a realistic capacity.
Seth Logan also plans to invite more well-known figures to take part in the show. It's better to persuade Lily Collins, Gail gado, Susan Downey, Margaret Robbie and Carla Firth, as well as the people behind the scenes in Murphy's crew, to come to the stage. This is also a selling point, isn't it?
However, it's not easy to impress these people. Seth Logan knows he has a lot of work to do.
The best way is to persuade Murphy to play, and Murphy will move Gail gado again. Gail gado's argument that Carla Firth and Lily Collins is not a problem at all.
Then, I'll find some other celebrities with Jonah hill. The two of them have made a lot of friends in the circle over the years. The Stanton clique has a great appeal to other actors.
When a staff member comes to inform us, Seth Logan follows Robert Downey Jr. and Jonah Hill Jr. and goes back to the set of a large entertainment room. James Franco and Margaret Robbie are standing in front of Murphy, listening to him explain some specific things.
Margot Robbie is extremely smart and capable in a body shaping suit, which gives people a kind of amazing feeling; James Franco is a dark red to almost black suit, which looks like solidified blood at first glance. With his makeup, he has an indescribable sense of evil.
"If you look at James, you know he's not a good man." Jonah hill, led by the deputy director, sat in a chair on the set, Seth Logan and Robert Downey Jr. sat beside him. After several other extras sat down, he said to the latter two, "James looks like a madman."
Seth Logan reminded, "don't you remember? Murphy said that the role played by James is a madman in itself, and the key figure in the second film is just showing his face in the madhouse. "
After a few words of conversation, the recording over there stood in front of the camera lens, and the shooting was about to begin. (to be continued). )
