"Ka, Alan, do it again." Evan Bell sat behind the monitor, his voice was crisp and decisive, without the slightest sloppiness.
The staff around the scene were silent, and no one made any sound, but the feeling of taking a breath of cold air could clearly feel the crunching sound of the camera running, which made the shooting scene a little too quiet.
"What the **** is going on with you?" Alan Akin's foul language came out directly.
Facing Alan Arkin, who was almost a grandfather, Evan Bell sat behind the monitor, motionless, just raised his head, "If your performance just now can feel like this foul language, then It could not be better."
"You got **** in your head, didn't you hear what I said just now? Damn! I've re-shot this scene fifteen times, why are you dissatisfied? I won't do it again, do you like it? ." Alan - Arkin's temper apparently also came up.
Evan Bell still didn't look angry, but a hard sentence was thrown over, "You have to shoot if you like it, or you still have to shoot if you don't like it. I said no, just no."
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly condensed into ice.
This is the highlight of the Hoover family dinner, and it is also the second day after the "Little Miss Sunshine" crew was put into filming. At present, the prelude to the dinner party has been filmed, and the grandfather who joins the dinner at the end will sit down and complain that he has to continue eating fried chicken today. Cher doesn’t know how to cook at all. Afterwards, the grandfather who sat down was full of resentment. He was angry at Frank and Richard, but he never looked good.
However, Grandpa's first line when he walked to the dining table actually got stuck, and it was repeated fourteen times. Evan Bell thought that Alan Akin's performance was too rigid, and there was always a sense of joy, Grandpa The irritability that starts to pick on everything in life doesn't show. After much communication. Alan Arkin's performance has never improved. For the fifteenth time just ended, Evan was called "card" again, which immediately made Alan Arkin's temper up.
To know. Ellen Arkin is also an actor who has won the Oscar nomination for Best Actor. He has acted for 40 years before and after. Although he dare not consider himself an old actor, he is definitely a competent actor. Now Evan Bell, a 22-year-old little boy, is actually pointing fingers in front of himself and making irresponsible remarks about the details of the performance. He is naturally annoyed.
Can stand in Evan Bell's position. ...... He doesn't care how brilliant Alan Arkin's past achievements are, he only needs Alan Arkin to play the role of grandfather better and blow up that sense of conflict. But it is a pity that when Alan-Akin was reading his lines, he was always a little tough, but with a sense of joy, just like a cold-faced joker♀ and grandpa's characters are old and uncultivated, old children, The images of old. rascals. hooligans are far apart. Even after the communication, Alan Arkin has not changed much♀ It also made Evan Bell angry, so this has been ng.
Whether it is "Love Notebook" or "Mysterious Skin", because most of the actors are newcomers. So Evan Bell, a rookie director, can still hold the scene, but in "Little Miss Sunshine", this is not the case. Although it was not stated, how could Evan Bell, who is so good at observing words and expressions, not feel it, in addition to two young people - Abigail - Branslin and Paul - Dano, the other four veteran actors have Evan Bell is inevitably a little underestimated.
However, because Evan Bell still wears the titles of director and producer, the actors did not express it clearly, but Evan Bell could feel it when excavating and discussing the role the day before yesterday. The imperceptible perfunctory and casualness in their words. Even more so after entering the shooting.
Although this is the second day of filming, the scenes are not simple, because it is a shot that outlines the tone of each character, which requires very high requirements for every actor, requiring them to be able to devote themselves to the role as soon as possible and catch the role as soon as possible. Essence. When communicating between Evan Bell and the actors, I can't say it's a hindrance, but it's definitely more difficult than usual.
Now, Alan - Arkin's complaints broke out, and it was expected. Look at the other actors, sitting in their seats without speaking. This behavior can be explained as they are not involved in the brawl, but it can also be explained as they are watching how Evan Bell will deal with it.
In fact, sitting in the director's position with the most power on the set, if you don't have enough ability, it is not easy to control those excellent actors. Evan Bell knows this very well, and since he encounters it now, he has to deal with it head-on. Otherwise, let alone the work of "Little Sunshine", if he continues to shoot works in the future, it will be even more unconvincing.
In the face of Alan Arkin's outbreak, Evan Bell's icy response did not give in at all, causing the smell of gunpowder to burst out in an instant.
"What kind of onion are you, but a child who is still drinking milk, dare to point fingers in front of me!" Alan Arkin kicked the chair directly and looked at Evan Bell angrily.
Evan Bell stood up abruptly, and his voice couldn't help raising his voice, "Which green onion am I? This studio is under my control, this work is under my control, and your performance is under my control. If you don't want to Continue shooting this work, hand over the liquidated damages, and leave on the spot, I will never stop you. If you want to continue shooting this work, and you want to make it well, you must listen to me, because I am the director! "
Evan Bell didn't say a word loudly, and didn't fully roar, but it was loud, like thunder in this silent scene.
Alan Arkin opened his mouth, but said nothing. In fact, he doesn't hate Evan Bell or anything. On the contrary, he is a very dedicated person. Most people from Broadway have a high concentration on acting. It's just that Alan Arkin feels that his performance is enough, but Evan Bell has been holding on to it, which makes him feel that he is despised. Of course, it is undeniable that this is also the same as that of Evan Bell. Only twenty-two years old. But now hearing Evan Bell say this, Alan Arkin's momentum was blocked, and he didn't raise it again.
The other actors who were also in a wait-and-see attitude were still silent, but they stopped looking at Evan Bell and completely quieted down. Two days, such a thing happened to the crew, which is not good news for any crew.
Others are quiet, but Evan Bell has not finished speaking, because he knows that he is pressing people now, and if he can't really convince these actors, this problem will continue to occur throughout the filming process. , Now it's only a temporary solution, he must also treat the root cause.
"Alan, what kind of person the grandfather is, we have discussed it clearly the day before yesterday, I don't know if you are clear. If you have a bad memory, I don't mind reminding you," Evan Bell said to Alan- Ah Jin's age made no secret of his age, and suddenly the atmosphere at the scene cooled down by a few degrees. Fortunately, it is now summer, otherwise the chills will start, "Grandpa just wants to enjoy life now, he is not afraid of everything that may destroy his life. Comfortable things are impatient, and he is the oldest Hoover family elder, this position also gives him the greatest freedom. He can whine and complain freely, and he can say anything ugly to attack others without caring about them at all. Feelings. Then, come and listen to your performance just now."
After speaking, Evan Bell turned his head and motioned to unplug the monitor's headset, and replayed the sound of Alan Arkin's performance just now. Ellen Arkin's voice came clearly from inside, "What's the matter? Chicken again? Eat **** chicken every day! If you kill this day, you can't have another day..." It was also mixed with Greg King Neil's voice, "Dad!" "Eat something else someday, **** chicken every day!" "Hey, Dad!" "I'm just saying..."
"Card!" Evan Bell's voice was even clearer, and it came from the monitor. The assistant director on the side pressed the monitor to pause.
Evan Bell turned his head again, "What is it? Chicken again?" The irritable voice rushed out, everyone was stunned, but quickly reacted, Evan Bell used the most direct way, broke out this line, "Eat *** chicken every day! Kill this day!" After speaking, Evan Bell didn't pause at all and roared directly, "You* **Can you use that impatient tone in your lines, listen to your lines just now, are you talking about stand-up comics? Or are you having a romantic relationship with an elegant old lady. Do you really think Is that performance appropriate? Is it appropriate?" Evan Bell's voice was completely raised at this time, and anyone could clearly hear his anger, "If you need time to deal with the character For further reference, just say it directly, I can give you five minutes. But don't make every performance like a piece of shit, let me waste film instead of talking, and complain to me here. If you want to complain, at least show dedication After the attitude, come to challenge me again, don't let yourself be ashamed!"
After Evan Bell finished roaring, he directly said, "Five minutes of rest." Then he kicked the stool in front of him and walked out the door.
Alan Arkin stood in place, neither standing nor walking nor sitting, his face looked ugly. The other people sitting quietly beside him did not move, lest they would be bombarded by Evan Bell's anger the next moment. Abigail Branslin also sat obediently in his seat, bowing his head and not speaking, probably was frightened just now.
On the set, no one can question the authority of the director, not even the producer.
