ten minutes.
It's not the time that Langley needs to talk, it's the time reserved for Melissa.
Langley wasn't sure that was enough, but the crew didn't have much time.
This art theater is a temporary rental shooting site for the crew, in order to truly create that kind of retro texture. When the cinema learned that it was used by lanli for filming, the boss generously provided a shooting site at a very low price; But the crew knows that this means that the cinema has to be closed all day, and the loss is not small.
In order to reduce the loss of the cinema, the crew chose to shoot in the daytime and try to finish all the work before the prime time in the evening, so as to ensure that the evening of the cinema can still be normal. This is also a little bit of the heart of the independent crew.
As a matter of fact, "pop drummer" has a lot of cinemas. Damien hopes to complete all the shooting in one day, which means they have to speed up the progress; And the fault tolerance rate is low. The shortage of capital chain leads to chain effect, so everyone knows that the difficulties of independent drama group are reflected in all aspects after shooting.
So, ten minutes. Whether Melissa can do it or not, this is the time she has; If you still can't do it? Well, Lan Li is a man of his word, and he does what he says.
This is not only the major of the actor industry, but also the core of the actor industry.
Some actors, in order to hold a play, may need several hours, or even a whole day, so that the entire crew idly put aside to wait, resulting in the cost loss, which is really a headache for producers. The premise is that these actors have the ability to make the crew wait; Otherwise, he will be out of the game on the spot and may even enter the blacklist, which is well known in the whole industry.
Ten minutes is fleeting.
The crew is still resting, waiting for Damien's signal; "Ten minutes has arrived. It still needs a little time, or..."
Lanli stood up cleanly, "I'm ready. Let's all take action. Let's start shooting now."
Now that lanli said so, the whole crew began to run again. Melissa, standing in the counter, suddenly became cramped. But this time, instead of completely collapsing, she turned around and took care of herself quickly. Then she turned around again and looked at lanli, who was coming face to face. She forced herself to straighten up, showing a positive and strong appearance.
Langley stood calmly in front of the counter, only half an arm away from Melissa.
Melissa is still avoiding blue Li's eyes. Although she tries to straighten her chest, her erratic eyes still reveal her true feelings.
Lan Li's eyebrows slightly frowned toward the middle. He felt that they still need to further communicate a little and complete a dialogue between the roles. It's all about work, and it's only about work.
"Look at me." But Melissa's eyes were still moving. Her words didn't stop. "I like you. You have to know that. I'm in love with you, heart and soul; But I lack self-confidence, also lack courage, just talk to you, this step has consumed all my faith. I don't think I am worthy of you. I think you are a wonderful existence. I hope you can face up to my existence, even if it is a very, very small possibility. "
Not Langley, but Andrew.
Melissa was slightly stunned. She didn't think of it, she didn't think of it at all. She unconsciously raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her.
The light brown eyes were as calm as water, with a light ripple, revealing a trace of shyness and formality, which made Melissa's whole brain stop, unable to think, unable to operate, and completely entered the world of Langley - she couldn't distinguish who was in front of her eyes, just began to sink involuntarily.
"I need you to look at me, just like now. I am showing my sincerity without any protection or hypocrisy, which is not easy, but this is the only thing I can do. I stand in front of you timidly and sincerely, imploring you to give me a chance to have a date. Then, I will try my best to move you, because this is my most sincere hope. "
Melissa was completely stunned. Her sincere words seemed to have a magic power. When she heard her voice, she said, "OK." She was startled by herself, and then realized that her instinct had taken the lead to respond before her brain could respond.
Is this really good?
"Yes, just keep it that way." Lan Li then said, gently chin head, "remember, you are the one who has the initiative."
Melissa couldn't help but excite herself. At this moment, she realized that everything just now was Andrew's confession, not Langley's, but she foolishly blurred the boundary between reality and illusion, and had a stupid illusion of "Langley's confession". Now she came back to herself.
But even though she recovered, she still couldn't get away, because the sincerity in her eyes was so warm and pure, which could never be removed from her mind. Melissa nodded her head, but she couldn't make a sound.
Once again, she looked at the man in front of her, but she couldn't tell clearly. Was it lanli or Andrew in front of her?
Lenley turns around, makes an "OK" gesture to Damien, makes sure everything is back to normal, and then steps out of the camera. The whole scene just now has to start from scratch.
Damien took a deep breath. After confirming with his eyes that all departments were ready, he didn't even confirm Melissa's status. He just called out again, "shoot!"
Andrew's step was a little hesitant, but the short distance from the door to the counter was not smooth. He slightly opened his shoulders and made his shoulders and back straight. That kind of reserved and introverted shyness was hidden quietly, showing the advantages of slender body, and the whole person became young and confident.
However, the drifting vision still revealed his nervousness and uneasiness.
Andrew didn't speak immediately when he stopped in front of the counter. He noticed Nicole's line of sight welcoming the customers. He had to force himself to show a smile and say hello. But the focus of his line of sight was always circling around, and the ups and downs of his heart were hidden in those little movements, "Hey."
"Hey, hello." Nicole still showed a very bright smile, greeting.
"You... Hello, how are you?" Andrew was a little at a loss. His left hand stuck in his pocket awkwardly and stiffly, trying to express his natural and unrestrained, but it was not an easy thing. Even if he kept a movement, his awkward body movements still revealed his nervousness and helplessness, all of which were directly reflected in the words: stuttering, intermittent. Even the posture became awkward.
"I'm fine, thank you." Nicole replied with a smile.
Silence and embarrassment spread slowly in the silence. Andrew's eyes drifted to the side unconsciously. It seemed that he was looking at the popcorn machine not far away, and then exploring the brand of that machine; Completely rigid movement looks like hanging on a clothes shelf, which is not natural at all.
Nicole didn't know why. She just fulfilled her duty. She leaned forward a little, tried to confirm the other person's focus of sight, and said, "as usual?"
"Ah, no..." Andrew looked back, but this time, his eyes were projected towards the counter glass, as if he was observing the placement of the cash register. "You see, I don't know much about the general situation... How... Er..." Andrew completely lowered his eyes. He was facing Nicole, but he didn't have any eye contact, as if he was just talking to himself, "I often see you here, and I think you are... Um... Very beautiful..."
Cautiously, Andrew raised his eyes and looked at Nicole. The uneasiness in his eyes revealed a touch of vulnerability and hesitation, but he still nodded heavily - although he didn't know why he nodded, but this action seemed to increase his courage. Finally, he said, "would you like to go out with me?"
Andrew showed a big smile, but only the corner of his mouth was rising, but there was no smile in his eyes. Because he was so nervous that the smile was like a model squeezed out of a toothpaste advertisement, but he was trying hard to show his most handsome side.
That kind of green and ignorant, people can feel thousands of butterflies fluttering.
"Ever" Andrew squeezed an adverb out of the corner of his stiff mouth, which was coherent: would you like to go out with me even once? Or do you never want to go out with me?
The uneasiness and hesitation of his self-confidence made his expression extremely distorted, but it showed the green tension and joyful uneasiness incisively and vividly.
Nicole's smile on the corner of her mouth converged, and she looked at Andrew with a straight face, in silence. Then you can see that Andrew's smile on the corner of her mouth slowly and slowly became stiff, and the light under her eyes gradually and gradually faded. The whole person exuded a sense of fear and confusion.
"Please leave." Nicole said calmly, as if she were rejecting an obsessive, obsessive idiot.
Andrew froze in the same place, his eyes and expression were a little stiff, the drowning panic suddenly attacked, his hands were stiff on both sides of his body, his straight spine was collapsing at the speed visible to the naked eye, and all his self-confidence was disintegrating.
