Doing evil is not for money, but just happy to see one's own philosophical victory-the corruption of human nature and the destruction of this world, in his words "chaos".
There is no doubt that in terms of setting, the clown is a ‘great criminal.
After the filming started, Heath Rae’s brilliant performance was the best interpretation of the role of the clown.
As the shooting progressed, and after shooting every day, he kept communicating with Duke, and his condition got better and better.
While Heath Ledger showed the crazy side of the clown, he also explained that he is a "great crime planner."
The focus of the clown's plan is to exploit the weaknesses of human nature and exploit the loopholes of human nature itself. If these weaknesses originally existed, but only existed in a dark place, then he tried his best to highlight them, let them be manifested, and promote them to further corrupt him.
This set has been tried and tested even in gangs. The robbers who carried out the robbery received an order to kill their companions after completing a certain procedure, and they did not break the promise. He can always find a reason to make people give up his existing principles. He commits crimes through their own hands, and the consequences are borne by themselves.
Rachel’s death became an unspeakable pain for Batman, and felt that he was responsible for it; 7, at the same time, it also became Harvey Dante’s life turning point.
With just a light push from the clown, Harvey Dante stepped on the supreme law he once served. The hero and the gangster are only one step away.
It is undeniable that in him, the background color of "double-faced man" has long been lurking.
Half a month after the shooting of "The Dark Knight", seeing Heath Ledger and Nicholas Cage getting better and better, Duke also slightly changed the filming plan to make a key scene between Harvey Dante and the Joker Put on the agenda.
In the studio set up as a ward, half of Nicholas Cage's face was put on a green screen, and the double-faced man wanted to show it vividly. Relying on traditional makeup is not enough, the most important thing is the production of cgi special effects.
On the other side, Heath Ledger wore a nurse's uniform with clown makeup, which made it even more weird.
When the two actors and departments were ready, Duke gave the order to start shooting. Heath Ledger and Nicholas Cage were indeed in very good condition. There were no accidents like laughter, and with a bit of weirdness and seriousness, this vital scene began.
Heath Ledger walked to the hospital bed, took off his mask, and greeted with a very weird tone of guilt and embarrassment, "Hi..."
Nicholas Cage looked at the clown after taking off the nurse's mask, and he became excited and angry when he was tied to the bed.
Heath Ledger sat directly on the chair beside the hospital bed and said, "Look. Harvey, I don't want to make our relationship unhappy, you and that..."
Nicholas Cage shouted angrily, "Rachel, she is Rachel!"
"I was still in Gordon's prison when you and Rachel were kidnapped." Heath Ledger said plausibly, "I didn't do this."
Even with a thick clown costume, Heath Ledger's expression at the moment. It seems really has nothing to do with this matter, he is just an innocent person.
Nicholas Cage looked at the clown with sharp eyes like a sword. "That is your subordinate, your plan."
"Look at me, do you look like a person who does things according to plan? Don't you know me? I'm like a dog chasing a car. I really caught up and don't know what to do next. I am just, Do for it."
Under the performance of Heath Ledger. These words seem so natural, "The gangsters have plans, the police have plans, and Gordon has plans, you know. They are both planners and conspirators. Conspirators always hold their own small world firmly in their hands. Palm of the hand. I am not a conspirator. I made those conspirators realize how pathetic their efforts to control everything are. So when I said..."
He grabbed Nicholas Cage’s hand and said, “Come, don’t be afraid, when I said, the tragic experience between you and your girlfriend was not done by me out of personal grievances against whom, you know what I said. It's all truthful."
Speaking of this, Heath Ledger untied Nicholas Cage, and continued, "Those conspirators got you to this point. You used to be a conspirator. You have your own plan. Look at the results. , What do you plan to look like."
Nicholas Cage wanted to attack Heath Ledger, but Harvey Dante, who played by him, had just been hit hard and was overpowered by the clown in just a few strokes.
Looking at Duke’s monitor, Heath Ledger was a little crazy and seemed to have really become a clown. He naturally said a set of clown theories, "I just did what I was good at. Take advantage of your small plan and reverse the situation a bit."
"Look at what I have made this city with just a little gas and bullets? Huh? Do you know what this gives me? No one will panic when it goes according to plan, even with that plan. It's creepy."
If it is normal, this kind of remark will only make people feel ridiculous, but Harvey Dante, played by Nicholas Cage, has just suffered a physical and mental double blow and can't help showing a thoughtful expression.
Heath Ledger continued, "If I tell the media tomorrow, such as'I'm going to kill a juvenile delinquent' or'kill a truck of soldiers', no one will panic because it's all part of the plan, but when Everyone lost their souls when I said, "There is such an old mayor who will die."
At this time, Heath Ledger was completely mad. He took out a revolver and gave it to Cage, "Introduce an anarchy, subvert the existing order, and then everything becomes chaotic, I am the spokesperson of chaos, oh, you Do you know what chaos is? It's fairness!"
Duke looked at the monitor slowly and stood up slowly, "gtert! Heath, Nikolai, did a great job!"
The two actors sat there, did not move, and seemed to have not separated from the role. Duke did not say anything. No one from the crew stepped forward to interrupt. A few minutes later, Nicholas Cage and Heath Ledger went to rest. Place.
Just when the two of them sat down, Duke shouted, "You did a good job just now, but I think you can do better, so take a break for ten minutes and continue shooting!"
It took a whole afternoon for the scene to be filmed before Duke announced it was over. He chose three of the best as the material for post-production.
The day's filming is over here. When the staff was in charge of encrypting the footage, Duke heard someone say hello to him.
"Hi, Duke."
He turned his head to look, Tina Fei came with two women, one large and one small, who looked a little similar, and at first glance they looked like mother and daughter.
Duke reached out and shook hands with the two of them, "Hello, Julie."
The younger and older woman was Julia Roberts, a former Hollywood sister. After greeting Duke, she introduced the younger woman next to her, "This is my niece Emma Roberts. I will come with her." Explore the class."
"Explore?" Duke was a little strange.
"Eric Roberts." Tina Fey reminded in a low voice.
Duke immediately understood that it was the actor who played the gang boss Maloney in the crew.
The two sides just knew each other, and Julia Roberts also moved from Nancy Josephson’s company to caa a few years ago. They can’t talk about friendships, so I just talked a few words, Julia Roberts and Emma Roberts went to the makeup trailer to find Eric Roberts.
Duke and Tina Fei came out of the studio and randomly found a battery car. Duke drove, Tina Fei sat in the co-pilot and drove towards the gate of Warner Studios.
Perhaps women are more gossips by nature, and there is no one else here. Tina Fei asked Duke curiously, "The circle has been rumored that Emma Roberts is Julia Roberts’ illegitimate daughter. Is this true? ?"
"I don't know." Duke shook his head. "Except for the Roberts family, no one else knows."
There have been rumors about this in Hollywood and tabloids. In addition to Emma Roberts's bizarre background, it is also related to Julia Roberts' chaotic private life in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Although after Julia Roberts ascended to the position of Hollywood superstar, everyone basically stopped mentioning her dark history, but this kind of inexplicable matter is still circulated in private.
Of course, from Duke's point of view, this possibility is unlikely.
In terms of height alone, Emma Roberts is not like inheriting Julia Roberts' genes.
After changing to a car, the topic of the two gradually shifted to the "Dark Knight", especially the scene filmed in the afternoon, which aroused a lot of curiosity of Tina Fei.
"I haven't read the full version of the script." She said to Duke while sitting in the co-pilot. "But in the afternoon I watched some script clips and the performances of Heath Ledger and Nicholas Cage. It was a bit interesting. "
"Huh?" Duke turned the steering wheel and drove into the road to Malibu.
"The clown just told them that their loved ones are facing some kind of threat, and these people easily broke through their bottom line and led Harvey Dante in the direction specified by the clown." Tina Fei said, "and then angry. Harvey Dante imposed this method on others, even his former partners. Is this human nature?"
"On the surface, all of this is true. At a critical juncture of life and death, it is understandable that a person must first and for his own sake."
Duke speeded up a little bit and said casually, "Very few of us have experienced this extreme situation, so it's hard to imagine how we would behave and whether we are ideal in that situation. However, this tolerant idea quietly concealed In view of the fact-what kind of power is this that can control people in its hands with such precision, like a gecko has its tail trampled on, and must surrender part of itself? People should admit this power Coercion to yourself?" (To be continued...)
