Chapter 276 Exciting
Warner Studios, in the temporary filming room of the crew.
Chad, the action director, pressed the remote control, and the TV screen played his carefully edited gunfight clips, which were mainly realistic.
Ping-ping-pong-pong-pong gunshots rang out.
Martin is like the male protagonist Eddie, carefully watching the protagonist's use of guns in the film.
In the final film of "Never Ending", these clips edited by Chad will also be selected as Eddie's learning and imitation objects.
The first one to appear is Eastwood, the classic scene of the old cowboy fighting with a revolver in "Unforgiven".
When Martin is not shooting, he practices shooting at least twice a week, but uses the revolver less frequently.
The screen flashed and switched to a clip from a movie that Martin had watched countless times.
Stealing the fire line!
The pace of the whole movie is as slow as Nicholson doing Streep in a trailer. People who are used to the fast pace of the new era will find it difficult to wait patiently for the duel between the two heroes.
So, the way many people open it is to fast forward all the way, starting from robbing the bank, ending with the gunfight, and then watching the end.
"This shootout can be called a classic among classics." Chad roughly said: "This film was shot and produced by Warner Bros., and we have obtained the authorization."
Martin nodded, seeing Al Pacino shoot the gangster who kidnapped the little girl with one shot, he pressed the pause button and constructed a gunfight scene in his mind.
Chad waited for a while and then said: "This section is very realistic and very practical. It is said that the two robbers used this film as a reference for the big robbery in 1998."
Martin also thought of Tom Cruise's "Borrowed Man". It seems that Michael Mann is very good at shooting gun battles.
The TV screen jumped again, and it turned out to be a scene of someone using a borrowed knife to kill someone.
Chad added: "I have been studying Michael Mann's gunfight design recently and have some insights."
Martin nodded: "I remember his gunfight scenes, which were all realistic in style."
Chad replayed the gunfight clips from the three movies. After Martin had some memories, the two went to the training ground nearby to simulate training with prop guns.
Bruce also joined in and served as Martin's training target.
There is nothing to say about training efficiency.
While taking a break, he received a call from Thomas. Martin called Bruce over and told him about the matter in general. He also asked Bruce to negotiate with the agency on behalf of Martin.
This is also a manager's job.
Bruce responded: “I'll go to WMA in the afternoon.”
The crew also used a large number of WMA's clients. For example, the veteran actor who played the role of a Wall Street tycoon chose Ari-Emmanuel's client Robert De Niro.
In the afternoon, Aniston came to the crew studio.
As a heroine, it is normal work to rehearse the scene with the male protagonist in advance.
The two of them took their respective character scripts and entered the same conference room.
Aniston closed the door to avoid disturbing others and asked Martin: "Shall we start?"
Martin had already collected his emotions and quickly entered the state: "Let's get started."
Aniston first discussed the character with him: "Is Linda's setting a bit philistine?"
"This shouldn't be called philistine, but close to real life, right?" Martin's opinion is completely different: "The male protagonist Eddie is poor and relies on writing to make a living, but he can't concentrate. He can't even complete the most basic work and pays rent. If she can't pay, why should Linda accept his pursuit?”
Aniston said: "After the protagonist took smart pills, her IQ and EQ were off the charts, and she made money, Linda took the initiative to get involved?"
The screenwriter Bradt is a man, the director is also a man, and Martin, who is leading the project, is still a man, so the heroine is completely set from a male perspective, and Martin sees no problem.
He added: "A down-and-out greasy man and a delicate and beautiful woman are no match for each other. This setting is also to highlight the changes in the male protagonist."
Aniston understands that the heroine exists solely to highlight the hero.
This is a very sad reality in Hollywood. Even a star of her level would find it difficult to receive a movie with a female protagonist entirely, or in other words, all the plots and characters serve the heroine.
Martin added: "The heroine will accompany the hero until the end and enters the political arena."
Aniston suddenly laughed: "The male protagonist has had enough fun outside and is tired, and then the female protagonist takes over?"
Martin retorted: "They are true love!"
He specifically emphasized: "One is exquisite and beautiful, and the other is handsome and rich. Aren't they a perfect match?"
Hearing this, Aniston couldn't help but look at Martin again. If Martin was a greasy, fat man, would she adopt this strategy against Jolie?
The answer is obvious.
She simply invited: "Are you free tonight? I asked you to have dinner last time, but I couldn't find a suitable time. How about today?"
Of course Martin will not refuse: "Rachel invites me, of course I have time, but I must come to treat you."
Aniston smiled, took out her mobile phone and made a call, booking a table at the Italian restaurant at the Chateau Marmont Hotel.
This hotel and restaurant is a place frequented by Hollywood stars. Any time you go there, the chance of meeting someone from the industry is 100%.
Aniston chose the place specifically to let word spread in the circle and let some people know that she and Martin were dating.
Martin has always been dedicated, he put up the script and shook it: "Let's play."
Aniston calmed down, temporarily put aside those messy thoughts, and rehearsed the scene with Martin. Director Danny Boyle has already led part of the crew to New York to prepare for the crew's filming in New York.
At the entrance of Warner Studio, Bruce came back from WMA in Century City. He put his car in the parking lot and walked into the studio area. When he was about to drive the electric car, someone nearby called him.
“Old Bu, Old Bu!” Julie sat next to a wooden table and waved to this side: “Come over and have a chat.”
Bruce checked the time, went over to sit opposite Julie, and said hello: "Good afternoon."
Julie asked: "Did Aniston go to Martin's set today?"
Bruce knows best the bad things surrounding Martin, and nodded: "She is the heroine, and she has to rehearse and act opposite Martin."
Julie paused for a while and then asked: "Just rehearsing?"
"What else can there be?" Bruce, who was not a good person, said deliberately: "The crew studio is small and there are many people, what else can two people do?"
Julie laughed.
Bruce asked: "You have plenty of time?"
Julie replied casually: "I haven't been filming recently, and I don't have much work." She asked very seriously: "Boss, is there any female role suitable for me in the Never-Ending crew? The role is not important, and the salary is not important, I just want to Join it."
Bruce considers the problem from the perspective of a manager. Martin, Julie, and Aniston, the publicity and marketing of this drama will inevitably explode.
But he said: "If you ask me, my answer is I don't know."
Julie understood, stopped mentioning this, and asked instead: "Martin is free tonight."
Bruce took out his cell phone and sent a text message to Martin, mentioning his encounter with Julie. A few minutes later, he received a message back. He said: "Aniston made an appointment with Martin at the Italian restaurant at the Chateau Marmont Hotel. dinner."
Julie nodded: "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Seeing that she stopped talking, Bruce stood up and left.
Julie glanced at Bruce and said nothing more.
Bruce got on the battery car and drove to the studio.
Midway through, he made another phone call to Martin.
Julie turned around and entered a nearby cold drink shop and found a seat near the glass window to sit down. Anyone leaving the studio area had to pass by here.
She thought for a while and made a special call to reserve a seat at the restaurant of the Hotel Marmont.
But this still lacks something.
Suddenly, a text message alert sounded on the phone, and the message received had only one word: Pete!
Julie immediately understood that a key figure was missing!
Without Pete, wouldn't the game be missing half of its excitement?
“It's exciting to think about it!” Jolie licked her thick lips, took out her mobile phone and called her assistant: “Find a way to inform Pitt that Martin has an appointment with Aniston at the Marmont Hotel tonight.”
She hung up the phone, put a smile on her lips, and said to herself: "Tonight is so exciting! Am I a little perverted? No, I'm just enjoying it all!"
Julie's legs were shaking with excitement, and the hand holding the cold drink didn't grab the cup for a long time.
Later, she looked at her watch frequently, and for the first time she felt that time passed so slowly.
Century City, Death Star Building.
Famous entertainment agent Brian Lord is receiving Brad Pitt in his office.
The former smelled a strong smell of alcohol and asked, "Did you drink a lot at noon?"
Peter waved his hand: "Just had a few drinks."
Lorde did not dwell on this. Hollywood stars are generally drunk. He said: "I asked someone to talk to Martin Davis. Let the past matter be in the past. Don't be impulsive when you meet him."
Pitt was disgusted when he heard the name and said: "I never thought of taking the initiative to provoke him, but what he did disgusted me. He stole Jolie when we were dating. I turned around and wanted to get back together with Aniston." , he went to rob Aniston again, how could I bear it? "
Lord reminded: "This is a personal grudge, and the company will not stand up for you! Don't forget, Aniston is also one of the company's most important customers!"
There was something he didn't say out loud, so as not to hurt Pitt's self-esteem. In terms of CAA's revenue and importance alone, Aniston completely destroyed Pitt.
"I know." Peter shook his head: "I will try my best to bring Jane back."
Although he has been drinking a lot recently, Pete is not completely confused. Without a heavyweight female companion, he simply cannot maintain his current status and appeal.
Without Jolie, Aniston is the best choice, what else?
Peter can't think of a suitable candidate for the time being.
"Don't fight Martin Davis." Lord knew that the words were unpleasant, but he didn't want to see Pitt being stepped on as a stepping stone: "You are no match for him."
Pitt nodded, stood up and left the office.
Before leaving the Death Star building, I received a call from my manager, and my face suddenly became tense.
