An apartment on Fulton street in New York City, Brooklyn, and an area outside had been designated early and not allowed for traffic. The residents who lived nearby didn't know what was going on at first, but they soon understood it with the arrival of various vehicles and the construction of appliances removed from them.
No one is surprised. Even there are not many onlookers. Such a situation is too normal in New York. As the most famous city in the United States, many movies or TV plays are filmed here every day. It was not until a team of fully armed police officers got out of the car and quickly launched the tactical formation that some residents were interested in.
They won't launch any rescue or arrest operations in the name of filming, will they? Some people think so teasingly. Of course, this is impossible, and these "police officers" began to become loose in less than two minutes. Even so, many people still find it very interesting to stop and watch for a while when passing by.
But for Adrian, who's directing the set, it's not that interesting.
"Charley, tell Raymond to make the extras move quickly and get ready for their first audition. Besides, let Trevor come to me at once Adrian, brushing and turning things over, wrinkled and didn't say that to Charlize.
"I see." Although the beautiful female secretary is more glorious than before, she looks very unhappy with her face. She does not wait for Adrian to speak again, and turns to go away.
Adrian shrugged his shoulders, smiling at the thought of something, and then began to discuss it with others. The first scene is the only big scene in the whole movie. Well, it's not a big scene. It's that the special police are blocking Lyon's apartment and trying to catch him. The important and violent scenes are all inside the building. People outside just surround here and maintain order.
If it's just like this, Adrian will not arrange this part of the camera to be turned on. The key is that in addition to these, it is very important to have an explosion scene. Therefore, he has to negotiate with the community agencies and some government departments to set aside half of the street for shooting.
He knew how annoying these organizations were when he was shooting the drag racing scene of "smell the smell of women". He could not do it here or there. If you don't follow their instructions, you can't start shooting. Therefore, before this, he let people contact each other. Anyway, it was such a play that he had already finished filming and had no worries.
"Good, that's it. Let the blaster get ready." Adrian told the story down, and then went to the RV. The two main actors had changed into costumes and were aligning their lines.
"How are you, let's feel OK?" Adrian called out, hugged Jean Renault, and then looked at the man with messy hair and a suit and a hint of evil.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, count dekula. Do you want me to kiss your hand?" Adrian said in an exaggerated tone.
"I think I have to remind you, Mr. Adrian, first of all, I am a man; second, I am single at the moment." Gary Oldman raised his eyebrows, and the stubble on his chin, which had been specially made for the film, trembled.
Renault, next to him, burst into laughter, while oldman seemed to find it hard to enjoy, adding: "it seems that the rumor that you have a good knowledge of British culture is not credible."
"I've never said that I'm very good at English culture," Adrian said, smiling and holding out his hand. "I'm glad you're in this movie, Gary. You're the same as the rumor. Although you're all in dark roles, you're still a lovely and interesting person in private."
"Thank you for the compliment, and I'm very happy to work with the famous miracle director." Alderman, who shook hands with Adrian, burst into laughter, apparently taking advantage of his compliment.
"Well, I'm going to shoot that explosion now, and I'm looking forward to your performance after that." After a few words of greeting, the choreographer came over to say that everything was ready. Adrian left immediately and came to the back of the camera.
"All departments, scene 79, act 16 is ready for shooting." After everyone returned to their positions, the field record raised the board in his hands and yelled, and two seconds later, he slapped it down.
The scene suddenly quieted down, and the camera began to rotate. Adrian held his arm and looked at the exit of the apartment. A second, two seconds, a bang, smoke and fire from the spray, and several professional stand ins wearing explosion-proof police uniform immediately made the appearance of being hit by the air wave and rolled away.
It's not so much different from that of the big screen explosion, which is not so much different from that of the big screen. This requires adjustments in post production, such as increasing contrast, speeding up the transition, or slowing down playback.
It was the first time Adrian directed the explosion scene, so he not only used two cameras to shoot from different angles, but also specially found an experienced deputy director to help him.
"It's basically qualified, if you want it," deputy director Masterson explained to Adrian, pointing to the screen on the monitor. "In the later stage, you can make the picture brighter, and then play it slowly, which is both dignified and powerful.""Is there nothing to improve?" Adrian asked, touching his chin.
"If you want to, you don't have to make a lot of improvements," Masterson replied smartly. "It's great to be able to shoot it in one shot."
"Then shoot it again as a backup, and then shoot it again according to your feeling. I'll ask the blaster to do it according to your requirements." Adrian immediately said, in this case, then shoot a few more times, just have the venue time. Otherwise, it would be too troublesome and too bad if we need to remake it later.
After repeated shooting twice, the time in the morning is almost over. Before each shooting, the blaster and props master should arrange all kinds of props, and after each shooting, someone has to go forward to clear the props at the first time, which takes a lot of time. In particular, after the shooting of the clearance work, do not think that we can drill holes, do not directly continue blasting, people from the community agencies are watching, and these are written into the agreement.
Adrian didn't care. As long as the effect of the film met his requirements, it would be OK to spend more money. As for the two main actors, they are still working hard to prepare.
After a simple lunch, the crew took an hour off and started working again. After shooting the police related scenes outside, Adrian started shooting Renault and oldman's first match.
In this scene, Renault is killed by oldman, who has been guarding here for a long time, when he successfully gets out of the special police and walks to the exit. However, before he dies, he also pulls the grenade hidden in his body to kill oldman.
The lens here has a moral meaning. When Lyon, as a killer, finally gets a trace of warmth from Matilda and starts to change his habits, hoping to become more like a normal person, he walks to the gate full of light. When he is about to escape from here, he points a gun to his vest in the darkness behind him, making him finally fall away The light is only a step away.
Even so, he still killed the villain Stan with his last breath, and Stan's final reaction was also very interesting. When he saw the large number of grenades hanging on Lyon, he just calmly scolded "" which shows how crazy he is.
However, Adrian doesn't have much thought to analyze these implications. It's a matter for fans and critics. Besides, even if he does leave any deep meaning here, fans and critics can also interpret them differently. So instead of thinking about these flashy things, it's better to focus on storytelling.
From the point of view of the story, Lyon also has to die, and die together is the best ending. It's very simple. Even if he escapes, as long as Stan is not dead, he and Matilda live in a tense atmosphere, and the length of the film does not support another confrontation with Stan. What's more, an unsatisfactory ending is more memorable and meaningful.
Of course, the most important reason is that film critics or mainstream society will not tolerate this kind of phenomenon in movies "Abnormal love". Although they themselves are dirty, but want to express in the film this little Lori fell in love with strange corn, and then live happily together, it will inevitably attract unprecedented verbal criticism.
Of course, film directors can also stick to their own creation, after all, this is Well Free, but absolutely marginalized, and excluded by the mainstream society. Adrian only does that when his head is in the water.
This is one of the reasons why Luc Besson's version of "the killer is not too cold" in memory is not very popular at the box office in the United States. In addition to being a French film, some explicit lines in the film, which are more explicit in the eyes of the United States, have also affected the perception of film critics, who have influenced a large number of fans.
So when Adrian wrote the script, he specially dealt with it in these places, for example, making the feelings between the two more fuzzy, mixing family, friendship and love together. The lines have also been carefully repaired, and some scenes are discarded or replaced by others. For example, Matilda jumps out to play a movie role in a Xiong mask to let Lyon guess. Although the Xiong mask is hanging outside, Adrian has replaced it with another role-playing. In a word, try to reduce the potential sexual attraction scene and increase the warmth part.
Of course, the premise of doing this is that it does not affect the main plot. Adrian believes that after his own modification, the film will only be more successful than the original.
