The long and hard shooting has finally been completed. The pressure and tension on the shoulders can finally be relaxed and put aside, which makes the atmosphere of the whole crew relaxed.
Lanli and a group of friends walk side by side, and Rooney is also standing on her side, talking and laughing, walking towards the dormitory. Then, their pace slows down and stops. They look at the group of people standing at the door of the dormitory, in addition to two guests, Roy and the accompanying senior personnel. The battle is really not small.
In a flash, all eyes fell on Lan Li.
But without waiting for lanli to respond, one of the tall, thin, bespectacled and curly haired guests came up quickly, stood in front of lanli, looked at him on the left side, looked at him on the right side, and then said excitedly and expectantly, "very good, very good. You can't be better now, but how fast can you grow your beard? In a week, can we mess up the vicissitudes a little more? I think we can have more beards. "
The voice of the guest was full of joy and cheerfulness. Originally, everyone thought it was a question and an exchange, but the words had just come down. There was no time and space left for lanli to answer. He could not wait to turn his head and exclaimed excitedly, "Ethan, beard is in good condition, not bad. But what about hair? What's your opinion? Would it be better to have a longer one? "
Then, he turned his head again and looked at Lan Li, "would you like to grow your hair long? It's not the length like me, I just said, a little bit, a little bit longer than now. Do you have curly hair? If you stay long, will it roll naturally? I look like you have curly hair, but how fast does it grow? Will it be slow? Does it take a month? If so, it's too late. "
Another long line of words, still leaving no room to answer, turned around and walked straight back, "Ethan, I think, he is still too handsome and clean, the whole person has a gentleman's feeling, handsome no problem, but we need a sense of decadence and vicissitudes, now, is it too late?"
"Calm down! Calm down Another guest kept pressing his hands down, and finally interrupted the flow of words, "remember that video? Think about it? Which one of the pioneer villages? At that time, lanli didn't grow a beard at all. He shaved all of them clean, and he was younger than he is now. But after he put into the performance, what happened? Remember
"Yes! Yes, yes, yes! How can I forget! Well, it's still different after the performance, so there's no problem The customer who was staring at the big curly hair turned around and said happily, "blue Li, then beard is enough. We need you to have more vicissitudes. That's all. Short hair, short hair is no problem."
Then, he began to rub his hands constantly. Even when he was standing in the same place, his feet seemed to be stepping on the metronome. He kept lifting and putting it down, lifting and putting it down, talking to himself, "what else, what else..."
This kind of performance, like children with ADHD, makes people gape and look at each other. Even Rooney is no exception. She hesitantly turns her head and looks at lenley, "he... Is he Joel Cohen? Next to that is Ethan Cohen? "
The Cohen brothers, the famous Cohen brothers.
They have a high prestige and popularity in the whole independent film industry. At the same time, they also have strong contacts and status in the industry. Even top production companies like Warner Bros. are very willing to have a good relationship with them. Maybe there will be cooperation opportunities in the future.
As the representatives of the top directors in the industry, their appearance has been widely known, and they often focus on Meng and Meng, so their recognition is even higher.
Therefore, when they appeared in front of the staff, they recognized two people at the first time. They didn't expect their visit at all, so they showed surprise one after another; But what's more incredible is that Joel's excited words are completely mindless and sound like gibberish, which makes people confused and stunned.
Hearing the hesitation and hesitation in Rooney's words, blue Li couldn't help but smile and nodded in affirmation, "yes, he's Joel, and that's Ethan." Then, seeing that Rooney cast an inquiring eye, Langley immediately spread out his hands and answered ahead of time, "no, I don't know why they are here. Roy and Nathan haven't mentioned it to me before."
In order to ensure the shooting quality of the final stage, lanli needs absolute quiet and absolute investment. Not only Nathan and Roy, but also the whole crew dare not easily disturb lanli's work and rest——
Every day, he was trapped in the light box for 15 or 16 hours, and his physical strength was overdrawn, which also meant that the rest time was more precious for Lan Li.
Rooney nodded her approval, then showed a smile, "but, they are directors, you are actors, they come to the door in person, what else can be the reason? Isn't the answer obvious? "
"It's a possibility, but I don't think today is because of it." Lanli is also full of question marks. Seeing the reaction of the Cohen brothers, he comes up with the work of "drunken folk song", which he missed. But then, lanli denies his guess.
Nearly six months have passed since the last meeting. 2012 has become 2013, and even January has passed. For the production cycle of a film, this is enough; Moreover, works like "gravity" that need to solve technical problems have been finished, and the shooting of "drunken folk songs" is naturally more smooth.
So, it can't be a "drunken ballad". Lanli immediately denied his guess, but for a moment, he couldn't think of any other projects or other reasons. Is it for the Sundance Film Festival which will start next week?
Then there was another flash of inspiration, "ice blood storm", not the movie directed by the Cohen brothers in 1996, but the series they produced in 2014.
The TV series is produced and broadcasted by the cable TV station FX, which is born out of the inspiration and creativity of the film. The script is re created. All the characters and stories are re written and completely independent. However, it still continues the black humor and social introspection of the Cohen brothers, which is amazing.
After the broadcast, "ice blood storm" received a lot of praise, as well as a large number of nominations and trophies on the Golden Globe and Emmy Awards; After that, FX TV station also continued to renew its subscription. It broadcast a total of three seasons before and after, and each season used a different cast of CASS, which conformed to the development trend of short TV series. It can be said that it was very popular.
In the previous meeting, Langley and Ethan had a brief exchange of ideas.
The small screen of TV series will gradually become a better creation platform, because the large screen of film has formed a fixed business model, and it needs more courage to break the framework; However, the small TV screen benefits from the rapid rise of cable TV stations and network platforms, and the huge audience has become the most important pillar, which gives them courage and confidence to make more bold and profound attempts.
This is a future direction. Although everyone doesn't agree and pay much attention to it, things will change dramatically in just two years. At that time, Ethan didn't agree with Langley. Six months later, Ethan changed his mind now?
If it's an ice blood storm
Lanli's mind is also full of thoughts. Just like the last meeting, he still doesn't know the specific goals of the Cohen brothers and has no clue at all; However, after face-to-face conversation, all doubts will be answered.
Lanli and Rooney exchanged a sight, and a smile flowed from the bottom of their eyes. Rooney rubbed her hands. "The opportunity to cooperate with the Cohen brothers is extremely rare for any actor, and now I'm jealous."
Blue Li is a serious ground to close jaw, "I thought, you have been used to." The confident counterattack made Rooney round her eyes, and then lenley began to smile happily, stepped forward to the position of the Cohen brothers, and politely said, "Ethan, long time no see."
At this time, Joel Cohen realized that after they met, they didn't even have a simple greeting. He quickly held lanli's right hand and said, "nice to see you again, lanli! In fact, we arrived here three days ago, but in order not to disturb your shooting work, we have been quietly observing. God, we finally meet. "
In the face of Joel's enthusiasm, which is totally different from the reaction of last year's Berlin Film Festival, Langley has gradually got used to it. He nodded with a smile and said, "I hope you can enjoy your stay these days. As far as I know, our company's food still inherits the fine tradition of British food, which is not flattering."
"Ha ha. Ha ha Joel laughed happily. "English humor always makes people smile."
Ethan, standing next to him, managed to find a gap and said with a smile, "please forgive Joel's madness. He's a little too emotional. I hope you don't mind
"If I mind, should I express it directly, or should I give you a little report?" Lansley's response stunned Ethan, and then Joel took the lead in laughing brightly, "Jesus Christ, the English people are so adorable."
Lan Li politely invited them to enter the room. "No matter what, let's go in first and talk about it later. In January, Sally's lips were so cold that he lost consciousness
"Of course, of course." Ethan nodded again and again, and a group of people rushed into the room. However, the other staff were not in the list. Their curious eyes were all blocked outside the gate, and they could only express their opinions one after another.
In the room, before ANN can sit down, Nathan is asking whether you want tea or coffee. Joel can't wait to say, "lanli, we've come here today. We just hope you can play the work of" drunken folk. "
