- The tlb crew will have a day off on Sunday the 25th and will take a 7pm flight to Toronto to resume work tomorrow.
The rest were all green screen scenes. Only Liz and Kelsey among the actors went. The other main actors have bid farewell to the crew one after another in the past few days. Two weeks is not much time. Under such precise and overtime rapid shooting, Keanu, Weisz, Sarandon, Tucci and others are not satisfied with their drama.
"Boy, when are you going to remake "Harold and Maude"? Let's do it together." Sarandon was joking, but it would be fine if it were serious. Ye Wei replied to her: "You are not old enough to play Maude." These words made Sarandon laugh sweetly.
Wei Zi was going to star in Wong Kar-Wai's "Blueberry Nights". When saying goodbye, Ye Wei joked with her: "Wong Kar-Wai asked me, 'If I have one more boat ticket, will you come with me?' You should tell him that." My answer is, 'No, you're going to be on the Titanic.'" Wei Zi agreed with a smile.
"Wait until you get scolded and praised all the time because of Mr. Harvey, you damn man." Ye Wei said to Tucci. Tucci let out a string of eerie laughter in his unique voice.
"Keanu, I'm sorry!" Ye Wei solemnly apologized to Keanu, "My behavior in directing your scene was very immoral and inhumane. Like grandma said, I knew it was wrong, but look I love your wonderful performance, you tell me?¡±
"I'm just afraid that I'm not good enough," Keanu said. The two of them have something to say, and they both know everything to make this story better and better presented on the screen. Ye Wei nodded and said: "Awesome, for your efforts, I will try my best to make this movie the best it can be."
The girls¡¯ farewells were full of reluctance.
Margot is going back to Australia. These past few weeks have been very dreamy for her, and all her dreams have come true. Last night, she wanted to take-two with Ye Wei, but she didn't get her wish.
Ye Wei was satisfied with her performance. "Clarissa" didn't have much room to show off, like the scene where Jack went to the cornfield at night to chase the murderer. He mistook Clarissa and Brian who were fooling around in the field for the murderer and attacked them. As a result, Brian beat him seriously with his baseball bat. Margot was screaming in fear next to her, but she acted very carefully.
¡°Margot and Amber have similar looks, but their acting talents are not at the same level. Margot knows what acting is. Life makes a person. Although she comes from a poor family but receives an elite education, this 16-year-old girl has a very high and delicate perception. In the long run, she is definitely more than just Clarissa.
"Go back and keep working hard. Hard work will never go wrong." Ye Wei has high expectations for her.
"Viy, I still don't want your support." Margot was a little disappointed and thought she could become his rumored girlfriend or secret lover.
Ye Wei encouraged her: "You think I have gained nothing? I am happy that I can help you. When you become an excellent actor or a star, I will feel a great sense of accomplishment. This is what I have gained." If you are a big shot in the future and I am so weak that no one cares about me, you can still give me a hand. This is also an investment! So you work hard, go to school, fall in love, and live a good life. Maggie, to be honest, I feel guilty for you. , just don¡¯t make it bigger.¡±
Although Margot didn¡¯t understand his thoughts, she was persuaded and continued to accept his funding, keeping it in her account and paying it back later when she had the money.
"Can you give me a kiss?" she asked expectantly.
"No." Ye Wei smiled, "We are friends."
Moody was going back to Los Angeles, and her reluctance was expressed almost entirely with her expressions, not words.
Speaking of Modi's performance, Ye Wei was filled with joy, a feeling like that of an older brother.
This farm girl changed into a different person as soon as she started performing. She seemed to be born with the ability to put in and out, and pull out, in just a few seconds. She revealed that this ability has been developed through years of performing in life, and it has become natural.
"Da Linxi is a character that suits her true nature very well. She is quiet, restrained, and yet agile. She acted so well.
But what he admired most was not her talent, but her diligence and studiousness. She did more homework for "Linsey" than Liz did for "Susie". She exceeded his requirements and was very helpful to Lin Xi. Akane's past, present and future are all clear in her mind, comparable to a tlb.
She also kept in mind the shortcomings of her low education level. She has been taking acting classes for half a year and studying for high school through online courses. She wants to go to college in the future. If you don¡¯t want to be like Amy who went to Columbia, Portman who went to Harvard, or Weisz who went to Cambridge, but if you want to be more educated, you can go to a community college.
Ye Wei supports this 100%. You don¡¯t have to worry about tuition fees, Brother Wei will pay for it!
But Moody¡¯s other dream, which he couldn¡¯t help, was to find her mother.
During a chat, she timidly said that her mother was like Susie¡¯s mother.She left like this, but the reason was that her father was not a good person and there was no news about her in these years. He couldn't help her. If her mother was still alive, watching the Golden Globe Awards, and paying attention to film and entertainment news, she would know Moody's current situation. If she didn't show up to recognize her, it was probably because of shame.
This time, many deceived girls got the opportunity to play classmates. Ye Wei kept his promise and let those girls with special behaviors show their faces more. Although it was all an ensemble cast, it was also an ice-breaking performance experience. Their careers are developing steadily. Several of them have signed with good agents and have auditioned for supporting roles in different independent films and TV movies.
"Little Lindsey" Saoirse Ronan left the crew early.
Because she is only 12 years old, the crew has taken good care of her work benefits. It is not only Sag who is watching her, but also the child welfare agency and her mother who has been following her all the way. Fortunately, there is no need to hire teachers during the summer vacation, and she is a supporting role, so her personal working hours will not exceed the limit at the end of the day.
Ye Wei likes Saoirse. He will choose AnnaSophia to act in commercial films and Saoirse to act in artistic films. Her talent is so high, her appearance and temperament can be changeable, and her acting skills are mature beyond her age.
If he wants to make movies for a lifetime, his career as a director has just begun, and his cooperation with these girls has just begun. Apart from Jennifer Lawrence and Alicia Vikander in "Winter's Bone", Saoirse is the one he most wants to work with next time.
When saying goodbye, he said: "See you next time we cooperate."
"See you next time we collaborate." Saoirse's blue eyes looked happy and longing.
Will do. When leaving Philadelphia, Ye Wei was most dissatisfied with the group of future girls, Litchi, Lizzy, Lizzie, and Elizabeth Olsen.
It¡¯s not that she is bad, it¡¯s that he feels that she can be better! It felt like she was never fully activated.
I¡¯m really unwilling. How can I make her better? First I should say, what is her problem?
During the long preparation period, Liz did not work hard enough and was fully prepared for "Susie", nor did she lack idealism, imagination and responsiveness. She had no problem with these.
He has gradually realized these days that her biggest problem may be that she believes too much: "The stage belongs to the actors, TV belongs to the screenwriters, and movies belong to the director."
Once they discuss it in depth, she will try to understand him instead of developing herself. So he rarely saw her clever ideas, and her performance was not as good as she was on the talent show stage or even in rehearsals.
She always has to rehearse and rehearse whenever she can. When he asked, she said, "I'm afraid of improv."
¡°This guy is not afraid of improvisation, she is afraid of not realizing the director¡¯s idea.
A few weeks ago, Ye Wei Zhen never thought that Liz would have this problem, because she was so confident, dedicated, and stubborn in talent shows and auditions, which is the attitude a good actor should have, but she disappeared when she arrived on the set. The director's followers are better.
But it¡¯s not that she¡¯s not confident, she sees things too clearly.
Although that is the truth, it is not the whole truth. A great actor not only realizes the director's intention, but also gives the character soul. A character with a soul will not be willing to be absolutely manipulated by the director and script, so there will be creative differences and improvisation.
What Ye Wei wanted was an actor who would refute and question him. Even after he forcefully said, "You can act however you want," he would still say, "I don't agree with you," and insist on filming one more scene with his own plan. , even if it ends up being trash on the cutting room floor. But maybe not? The director's ideas will also change.
Liz doesn¡¯t have such a mentality. None of the eight girls, not Emma, ??not Xie Lin, not Saoirse, not Moody
For Emma, ??Ye Wei has other guilts. When filming "Soul Surfer", he did let her go a little more. This is really confusing. He should let Liz go, but she clings to him; he shouldn't let Emma go, but let her do what she wants.
Both of them can be better, as long as they find the right way for them.
Now in his mind, regardless of the role, the performance ranking of the girls is: Saoirse, Maudie, Liz, Margot, Emma, ??Shailene, Dakota, Kelsey.
He hopes that when tlb is finalized, Liz will be at the top of the queue.
The green screen scene in the last week will only be more difficult to perform. It is really almost a complete realization of the director's imagination. There is no scene and no opponent. At most, there is Kelsey, who performs to the air based on the lens and picture the director said. With Liz's temperament, her performance will be further limited.
But on the other hand, the drama "Paradise" will show more aspects of Susie, a variety of different emotions, and a complex whole, which will also place higher demands on Liz.Ye Wei was going to talk to Liz on the plane to Toronto, but maybe it was too late to figure it out.
¡¡
On Sunday afternoon, Ye Wei drove around Philadelphia alone again and bought some interesting gifts for Lily.
When it was almost time, before heading to the airport to assemble, he went to the "pat-s-king-of-steak" at the intersection of South 9th Street, Wharton Street and East Park West York Avenue, the most famous cheesesteak sandwich shop in Philadelphia, and prepared Eat one more time and then leave.
¡°When he arrived in Philadelphia last month, he came once with Alice Sebold and his wife, and later again with Master Gia and many other people.
Although the store has been open for 76 years, there is an endless stream of customers open 24 hours a day. It is still a small fast food restaurant on the roadside. Photo frames with photos of celebrities are hung on the surrounding walls. The diners are scattered around the red iron tables and chairs outdoors. Eating delicious but unhealthy fast food.
Ye Wei parked the car on the side of the road and was about to go to the ordering window, but saw something.
I saw a girl with blond hair and gray eyes sitting at the front table, happily eating a cheesesteak sandwich. There were two cheesesteak sandwiches, some French fries and a glass of Coke on the table. She looked leisurely and contented, or intoxicated. After finishing that one, she sucked her thumb and picked up another one.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Ye Wei was helpless and angry. Did she want to be as fat as a barrel tomorrow? ?
He walked over and sat down across the table from her without saying anything.
Liz looked over in shock, and when she saw him, she not only didn¡¯t stop biting the sandwich, but also took a big bite hurriedly, as if she was afraid that he would snatch it away and not eat it.
"What are you doing?" Ye Wei asked.
"What you're doing here is what I'm doing." Liz's words were vague, her cheeks puffed up, and she chewed continuously. She quietly pulled the sandwich on the table next to her, her eyes pretending to be warm. Looked at him gracefully.
Ye Wei stretched out his big hand and snatched the sandwich, and Liz quickly stopped: "That's mine!" Ye Wei had already taken a bite, and held the sandwich as if to hand it back to her: "Huh? Liz was immediately depressed: "You are so rude."
He looked at her and asked in a curious tone: "You don't care that you are fat?" Liz also asked him in a strange tone: "Why should I care?" Ye Wei was even more strange: "Because ¡Girls always care. I¡¯m not weight-biased, I love Melissa McCarthy so much, I¡¯m just weird.¡±
Liz swallowed a big mouthful of sandwich, took a sip of Coke, and said slowly: "Girls always care about weight because the world's aesthetic concept is that thin means beautiful, and fat means ugly. If they are not fat, they can get it from beauty. Happiness." He nodded, and she continued: "But they always forget that humans can also get happiness from food, and I."
She started eating again: "I care more about the happiness I get from food, so it's not that I don't care, it's just that sometimes"
Seeing her pause, Ye Wei said: "Beauty is what I want, and delicious food is also what I want. You can't have both. Those who give up beauty for delicious food."
"Yes! That's the truth." Liz smiled as if she had met a close friend, and looked at the ordering window over there, "I'm going to buy another one now. I have to eat three at a time, and the doctor said My stomach is very big, okay?¡±
"No." Ye Wei shook his head, "When tlb is finished, I won't care if you eat ten at a time. Not now."
Liz pursed her lips reluctantly and slowed down her chewing speed, "I'll be hungry, and we'll have to take such a long flight later."
"An hour and a half."
¡°But airplane food is terrible.¡±
"Then don't eat it."
"Oh!" Liz wailed, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she asked, "Can you cook Chinese food?" Seeing him nodding, she became even more excited and expected: "Perhaps China is the country that gets the most happiness from food in the world. Maybe he's Italian." Ye Wei said with certainty, "Absolutely Chinese. If you don't believe me, ask Gia."
"I heard that Chinese food in the West is not authentic. I was wondering if you could let me taste some authentic food?" Liz twitched her index finger.
Ye Wei couldn't help but laugh when he heard what he thought of. The laughter was so loud that the surrounding diners looked at him.
Liz looked at him a little confused, "What? I didn't mean to offend" Ye Wei smiled and said, "No, what you heard is right. I can make authentic Chinese food, but my cooking skills are just average. "If you want to eat the most authentic food, of course you have to go to China."
He looked at the busy street next to him, "I haven't been back to Asia in a few years. What I miss most is the food there. I plan to go back to travel in August. My family is currently visiting China. Do you know,Although your father is a banker, you will not be arrested when you go to China unless you go bankrupt and tell your sisters. "
"I'm tired of you making fun of my sisters." Liz's face darkened, "I'm different from them! I'm even an atheist, yes! I'm not religious, just like you."
"It's different. I'm a pantheist." Ye Wei looked at her angry face and asked with a smile: "Lizhi, why didn't you treat me like this on the set?" Liz was confused, and Ye Wei said again: "I mean You have a tough attitude. On the set, you respect me too much. I guide you and encourage you, but you never go deep enough."
"You are the director." Liz didn't quite understand. Ye Wei guided her: "What are you thinking about? Tell me." Liz said: "You are a director, and you are a genius eight hundred times smarter than me! You are still an independent film, and independent films are directed by the director. How about you? "Bi, I don't even know what a movie is, I just" She thought for a while, "I am a piece of the puzzle."
Ye Weiyi was silent for a moment, this girl is not arrogant, her arrogance is that she thinks she sees that movie actors are essentially the director's puppets.
"It's true that you are a puzzle piece, but you should be a self-aware puzzle piece. Only by learning to oppose me can you release your full potential." He persuaded.
Liz frowned in thought: "I'm still learning how to understand you. To be honest, I'm a smart person. When others think a lot, I don't think it's obvious. Just in front of you, what can I do?" She Shrugging, "You're so damn smart and talented, you probably hear that every day, and it's true. I'm one of your students."
"Hey." Ye Wei was helpless. This is called cleverness being misled by cleverness. If you are more carefree, you won't take him too seriously. He said seriously: "Don't think like that! I don't remember how many times I've been like this with you. As I said, act your part, be more selfless! Elizabeth Chase Olson, show your personality!¡±
The more Liz thought about it, the more embarrassed she became, "'Susie' is not Spider-Man's girlfriend or anything, she is the heroine of an independent movie, your movie"
"Yes, this is my movie, but Susie is your Susie." Ye Wei carefully guided her through this twist: "Just like I am the federal government and you are the state government, you have the right to make your own decisions Law. Maybe 10 times you disagree with me, 9 times I will say 'your idea sucks', 'you are an idiot', but 1 time I say 'do it your way', that's when you shine , that¡¯s what I need!¡±
"I'll try my best" Liz murmured. It was not easy to change her mind. "That's too difficult."
"It's hard to do, but the more you succeed against the director, the better your acting will be."
"Objection for the sake of opposition?"
"No, activate yourself, we can't all have the same idea. Have you seen how Susan Sarandon acts? Have you seen her energy?"
"but¡¡"
"No buts!" Ye Wei smiled at Liz, "Our goal is to get an Oscar nomination for Best Actress." Liz immediately smiled too.
"Movies are directed, but the actors are not the directors." Ye Wei stood up and walked to the ordering window, "Not entirely."
"what are you up to?"
"I want to eat three at a time. Don't even think about it! I'm a boy, 20cm taller than you. Three is already very restrained."
