"Everybody, get ready. We'll start the first trial." With Adrian shooting increasing, he began to shout, "Shakespeare's love story" has officially started shooting.
Generally speaking, the story is relatively simple. It is basically derived from Romeo and Juliet, and then supplemented with many small details. For example, the name of the main character of NV is Viola, which is one of Shakespeare's four comedies, the twelfth night. The reason why this film will be loved by many people is that the author interprets his works as if they are real or unreal.
However, in Adrian's view, the original film in this respect is still inadequate, and did not give full play to this advantage. After all, it's a new style, and the producers are not sure how many people will accept it, which is one of the reasons that scripts are frozen. But Adrian knows exactly how popular this style is. Although Shakespeare's love story won the Oscar for best film 50 or more because of public power, it can't erase its excellence.
Therefore, he was more bold in this respect, adding more small details from Shakespeare's plays. For example, when the film started, the theater owner was finally able to open business because of the epidemic, but there was no good script, so he had to urge Shakespeare who was exhausted of inspiration. Finally, he even used the means of threat.
"Damn it, you know, William, you still owe me a lot of money," roared the theater owner.
"That's enough, Charlotte. Look at you now. It's no different from a greedy Jew." Said Shakespeare, unconcerned.
"Damn it, either pay back the money or give the script," the boss said angrily, knowing that the other party knew that his threat was to pretend, but that didn't stop him from pretending. "Listen, if you delay any more, I'll apply to the judge and cut a pound off your Iong's mouth to pay back"
"great," Shakespeare's smirking reply, "go ahead Charlotte, I'd love to
"Hey, William, you don't mean it." Asked the man next to him.
"It doesn't matter. It's just that a pound can't be too much or less, let alone bleed, or he can be charged with intentional murder." Shakespeare leisurely said, when the theater owner was about to die.
This passage comes from another of Shakespeare's Four Comedies: The Merchant of Venice. Adrian even changed the name of the theater owner to Charlotte. Of course, Adrian is also very careful to keep the bottom line, and through the relationship between shavin and other British dramatists to discuss the application of these jokes, so as to avoid the situation of too much.
What are you doing, Dan sleepwalking? I want you to play a cynic. He's brilliant, but now he's in trouble, but what are you like now? It's good to describe a ruffian, or are you playing a doctor incarnate instead of Shakespeare? " After calling a halt, Adrian made a rude remark.
For a moment, there was no sound in the studio, only his sharp tone was echoing. All of them are people who have cooperated with Adrian many times. They are very clear about his style. He is different from many directors. He almost never scolds anyone. But once there is an unforgivable mistake, no matter how thick his cheek is, his sarcastic words can make him blush.
"Well Mr. director, in fact, I'm also wrong... " After a few minutes of Adrian's taunt, Jeffrey rush, who plays the theater owner in the play with Dennis, coughed softly.
"Well, Jeffrey, don't plead for him. You've done very well, far better than him. You deserve your honor." Adrian interrupted him, but he finally stopped his taunts.
"I know you worked hard and did a lot of homework before that, Dan, but it's not an excuse for you to make mistakes again and again. Now take a break. If you make this mistake again, I'll have to change people." He finally said this, and Dennis stood still and listened, and finally bowed slightly.
Although it sounded harsh, Dennis knew that Adrian didn't mean anything. After all, he had discovered him and understood his mind for so many years.
Adrian doesn't want to be so sharp at the beginning, but the current situation is not the same as before. The actors need to be able to enter the state in the shortest time every time they shoot, because -
"Jeffrey, I think you are in good condition. Why don't you go there with me After letting everyone else rest, Adrian, who adjusted his mood, asked rush in a half joking tone.
"I don't have a problem. I don't know if there's a problem with the dresser and the dresser." Rush spread out his hands and said humorously.
Some of the important roles in the film have changed, but some have not. For example, Colin Firth, who plays Sir Weiser, Judy Dench, the close servant of NV, and Jeffrey rush, who has just won the best actor Oscar in the 69th Academy Awards, plays the theater owner.
This British actor is not simple. No matter what kind of character è is, it can be performed without any difficulty, whether it is a cunning little person, a sinister villain, or a serious and serious decent person. Of course, in Shakespeare's love story, his part is not much, Adrian will still invite him to join more or for another film."Well, I've said enough. Let's get started." In the studio, not far from the set of Shakespeare's love story, another film began to be filmed: Elizabeth.
It's not a joke to start shooting two movies at the same time, Adrian really wants to challenge himself. For him, this is not a particularly difficult thing. The pictures are all in his mind. With these references, he has almost honed them out over the past few years. Moreover, after he decided to shoot, he was making preparations, and he was still very confident.
The biggest problem is that you can't do two movies in your head. At the same time, one of the main reasons for the shooting is the same time, all of them were in the period of Elizabeth I, but one was in the early stage, and the other was in the middle stage. All the costumes, props and scenery were universal. But it also means that it's very easy to make two movies when you're shooting, and that will cost you money.
It would have been a bit expensive to start shooting two films at the same time. If Adrian was making this film, the film would have to stop working. If the cost went on, the already high cost would be even higher. However, this problem is very troublesome for other directors, but it is nothing here in Adrian. It is very simple for him to switch his mind without being interfered with each other.
So as long as there is no disturbance between the two crew members, Adrian is very confident about this. This time, he brought both teams to the UK and worked under his guidance for a long time. Even if there is still a problem, it will not affect the shooting progress as long as it is within a proper range. So the final trouble is the state of the actors.
As we all know, Adrian makes movies very quickly. As long as the actors are in a state, he can cut down at least half of the time spent on the original films, which can only be completed in two or three months. However, compared with the cost of the original film, he did not spend much time on it.
Although it takes more time to start shooting two films at the same time, the cost of shooting will naturally be higher. It is impossible to save too much money to invest in overtime pay. In addition, there are many other things to do in the midway. Therefore, he set the shooting time for four months. Even so, it also requires the actors to cooperate and stay in shape most of the time to achieve this goal, so Dennis would have been severely criticized before.
"Good, this shot is over." He turned the tape back and looked at it again. Adrian thought and announced that the shooting was over.
This is a view of the interior of Balmoral palace, which was built on the advice of British historians. At that time, there was no Buckingham Palace, but Mary I was hysterical because of her abortion. Because she has no children, once she dies, her sister Elizabeth will inherit the throne. For Mary I, who believes in Catholicism and has executed many Protestants in China, the Protestant sister is undoubtedly a good choice.
The actors in these scenes didn't have a role in Shakespeare's love story, so the shooting went smoothly, but Adrian had the set rearranged for another shot.
"Jeffrey, are you ready?" Adrian had already put on gorgeous clothes and was still receiving the attention of the dressmaker.
"Please give me a few minutes." Rush said, although he plays all kinds of roles in the film, but in real life he is a good man.
After walking back and forth in the studio for two times and taking a few deep breaths, he closed his eyes and brewed for a long time before he made it and nodded to Adrian. His temperament suddenly became a little yinsen and indifferent. He was totally two people with the somewhat obscene theater owner just now.
In addition to the roles in the original Shakespeare love story and Elizabeth, Jeffrey Rush has more important roles in Elizabeth. He plays Francis Walsingham, who was one of Elizabeth I's important heroes in history. He created a detailed spy network for her in Europe. Although he can't penetrate into every hole, it does exist in the European continent He couldn't hide anything from him. As for whether he is her face or not, although Elizabeth I is known as the king of virginity, she just said that she was not married and had children, and men also looked for a lot.
Since Adrian invited him to play in Shakespeare's love story and started filming Elizabeth at the same time, how could he not be allowed to play the role è? In fact, he should be invited to play Francis Walsingham in Elizabeth first, and then, considering that Shakespeare's love story was shot at the same time, he was given the role by the way.
Rush was a bit hesitant at the beginning. He played different roles in two films that started at the same time. Although he was confident that he was good at it, could it be a little too big? But Adrian's personal phone call touched his heart.
"You know, I am a person who likes to create miracles, and I have also created many miracles, so why not try to see if I can also create miracles." That's what he said.
The cameras will soon be in place outside the built windows, surrounded by a curtain of green è, which will be replaced by the European cityscape of the late Middle Ages. Of course, those are all beautified. Just like the theater and market in Shakespeare's love history, it is impossible to copy the medieval scenery completely. Anyone who has read the introduction of various medieval customs will not think of the life of that era.Well, to get back to the point, this part is about Elizabeth's recall of the exiled Walsingham after her accession to the throne, but her enemies all know that this guy is not easy to deal with, and wants to bribe the people around him to kill him. But Walsingham had been on guard early on, and in the light of it, he killed the man he had been paid for.
"Well done, Jeffrey." For rush's performance, Adrian is very satisfied.
"Thank you, but if you come here a few more times, I'll still have problems." Rush said after he let out the gas.
"Don't worry, I'll try to stagger the arrangements," Adrian laughed. "Unfortunately, we have to go back and finish the rest of Shakespeare's love story."
"Never mind. Let's try." Jeffrey shrugged.
Then came back to "Shakespeare's love story" set, people here are almost rested, Dennis seems to adjust his own state, seems to be eager to try. However, Adrian did not continue to shoot the rest of the scene before, rush came from the "Elizabeth" side, and spent a lot of Jing effort, we must give him a period of rest and adjustment time.
Although Dennis had prepared for a long time, he was still ng five or six times because he couldn't show that temperament. However, Adrian didn't say anything, and the previous threat seems to have been lost in the back of his mind. Once ng was over, he just told him to come back again. Dennis did not live up to his expectations, and finally passed this shot after the seventh ng, and in the next few shots were passed at one time.
Pa Pa Pa Pa, in this part of the end of a lag, Adrian gently clapped his hands, with a smile of approval on his face. As others clapped, Jeffrey rush was among them. Dennis bowed slightly in the warm applause, and then was obviously relieved.
"Well done, but that's just the beginning. Keep going." Adrian came up and patted him on the shoulder.
Unlike Joseph feines, the original protagonist, Dennis has never played a role in Shakespeare's plays. Well, that's not true. At least when he first started in Hollywood, he also played in some theatres, including Shakespeare's Macbeth. However, he played the guard of Duncan of Scotland, and was killed shortly after his appearance 。
But Dennis has one thing that other people can't compare. His plasticity is quite high. From the beginning of "two big guns" to now, he plays about ten corners è. Although these corners è have similarities in some places, few people think that when he comes and goes, he will perform with some expression or action.
This kind of plasticity and deep understanding of opportunities are not easy. Dennis was very diligent and learned quickly. After knowing that he was going to act in Shakespeare's love history, he not only watched Shakespeare's main plays once, but also often practiced according to those stage plays on the video tape or previous films adapted from Shakespeare's plays. That's why Adrian And that's one of the reasons why Geoffrey rush was invited to play the role in both films. He is also an actor who is good at all kinds of corners, but his appearance is not very flattering. Dennis can learn a lot from him. Moreover, he also has horns on both sides. His part in "Elizabeth" is much more than that in rush's "Shakespeare's love history". Therefore, the task is relatively heavy. If we don't use some special methods to oppress him and let him master the temperament of people in that period, the next shooting will be very troublesome.
"Good. Take a five minute break and work harder to finish the rest of the work in one breath. We can finish work today." Adrian immediately said so.
However, other people can rest, but he can't rest. He has to discuss the specific arrangements for tomorrow with the deputy director and the person in charge of each department.
"Are you sure that's OK, Savannah?" Adrian asked Shawn McDonald's, Kyla Knightley's mother.
Screenwriters generally follow the crew's actions so that the director needs to modify the script at some time. Since Adrian gave her the script at the beginning, and she has also done a good job, she has contacted many local professional writers to contribute to the script, so it is also appropriate for her to take up this profession.
"Yes, if you have any questions, I can consult them as soon as possible." Shawn nodded.
"Very good." Adrian nodded and added, "so is your husband."
"Thank you." She said with a smile.
Although will Knightley is not very famous, he is basically an actor who can compare è. Last time, he has proved this in brave heart. This time, it's no big deal to give him a supporting role in Elizabeth. Anyway
"By the way, what about Kayla? Did she like Nada's gift? When she came over this morning, I thought she was a little upset Adrian asked suddenly.
"Well..." Shawn hesitated. "She seems I had a fight with Emma
"Quarrel?" Adrian was slightly surprised. "Is it time? Emma didn't tell me"Sorry, you know, kids always have their own secrets." Shawn shrugged.
"This is..." Adrian nodded and wondered if he would like to see Kyla. The NV boy was very sensitive.
