American Fame and Fortune Chapter 373

Chapter 373 The bat beats up the clown

That afternoon, the crew started filming the action scene.

Batman wants to torture the Joker.

 This is a one-sided violent beating scene, and Bell, who puts on the Bat suit, has been looking forward to it for a long time.

 Martin was sitting on a chair, as calm as the clown in front of McDonald's.

Bell walked over step by step. The bat helmet covered his face and only exposed his chin.

 No one can see the face under the mask, it is all about long-awaited expectations.

　　Bazooka, sponge body, Heath Ledger, these words flashed through Bell's mind one by one, and slid down the nerves to his fists.

 The black gloves covered the bulging veins in his fists.

Bell's face was downcast. Today's idea didn't just come up. When the crew came to Atlanta, he got inspiration from Martin Davis' best friend Leonardo.

 While filming "Gangs of New York", Daniel Day-Lewis was an **** on and off the screen. When Leonardo was filming an action scene, he accidentally broke the bridge of Lewis's nose.

Whether it was a mistake, Bell didn't know, and he had no intention of pursuing it. He only knew that when filming action scenes, it was normal for something unexpected to happen.

 Even the insurance companies can't say anything.

Accidents will happen if the New York gangster action scene is not intense, let alone this action movie?

 Martin looked at Bell, his face was calm, but he was prepared.

 The two were inherently hostile.

Heath Ledger almost hit him and Aniston while driving under the influence of drugs. When Bale and Blanchett put pressure on them and persuaded them to "reduce the big issue," the two sides were already on opposite sides.

Bell was waiting, Martin could roughly guess.

 As the score was recorded, filming began.

Bell strode towards Martin. The muscles on his masked chin were beating rapidly. The Bat helmet that covered four-fifths of his face could not block the blazing anger.

At this moment, Bale's acting skills are overwhelming, no less than the masked Edward Norton in "Kingdom of Heaven".

 In other words, this is not a performance.

 For this role, Bell did four months of fitness and more than a month of action training. His muscles were strong and his agility was agile.

The black fist hit Martin's face like lightning.

According to the normal action shot shooting mode, the fists are just a bluff, and Martin only needs to raise his head in cooperation.

But Martin has been targeting Bale since the filming started, not just because he created a Heath Ledger, but because he sensed his thoughts.

This is Atlanta, and hundreds of extras and crew members come from Jerome and Robert's Marietta agency, so no trouble can escape him.

Martin keeps exercising all year round, and the Russian gang's Sword of Damocles is always hanging above his head. He and Bruce use real swords and guns during training.

Bell's arm moved, and Martin suddenly dodged sideways.

The black fist did not withdraw its strength and hit him from above the shoulder.

 Martin heard the whistling wind.

Bell used his other hand to grab Martin's collar to prevent him from dodging again.

Martin quickly lowered his head and hit Bell's hand with a headbutt.

Bell raised his foot and kicked. Martin exerted his strength with both legs and flew out in perfect coordination. His back hit the wall with shock-absorbing pads.

He opened his **** mouth, his face full of madness: "Come on, come on again! You loser, it turns out that you are really soft and can't harden."

Behind the director's monitor, director of photography Pfister's voice sounded in Nolan's headphones: “Director?”

 “Continue.” Nolan did not stop.

 Because of this action scene, the effect was so good.

Batman's anger temporarily overcame his usual rationality and adopted the most direct violent method to interrogate the Joker.

The movements of Bale and Martin are all powerful, realistic and natural.

  Nolan is well aware of many situations on the crew, but as a commercial director, these are exactly what he wants.

 The set is still under control and he is not in a hurry.

With a bang, Martin took the initiative to fly out again.

Bell's hard-fought fist seemed to have been punched out, but all its power was in vain.

"You bastard, tell me!" Bell said angrily: "Why are you doing this? Why?"

 Martin did not answer, but laughed wildly.

Bell couldn't control himself and moved the chair next to him.

Just at the edge of the set, Bruce's body was tense and ready to go, like a leopard about to hunt.

 Martin was still laughing.

 “Stop!” Nolan's voice rang: “This one has passed!”

The chair that Bell lifted did not put down, as if unable to stop due to the continuity of his movements, the chair flew out of his hands and fell towards Martin.

 Martin turned over on the spot and easily hid aside.

He seemed to be caught up in the drama and couldn't extricate himself. He pointed a finger at Bell, a blood-red mouth split on his pale face, and laughed crazily: "You trash, you are soft, soft!"

 He was rolling on the floor laughing as if he was crazy.

 Others just thought Martin was still in trouble, but Bell knew what he was talking about.

Standing five or six meters away, Bell was condescending, the corners of his eyes twitching wildly, and the muscles on his jaw twitching.

Batman was so excited by the Joker that he was about to explode.

 Martin is waiting. As a good actor with professional qualities, he will not respond for the time being to what Bell did during filming.

But the filming stopped, and Bell took action again... Not far away, Elena and Hall, who came to visit the crew after noon, said nothing.

Hall is holding a glass bottle of CocCola.

At Northville Private High School, Hall was the main pitcher of the school baseball team.

As long as he wanted to, the Coke in his hand could be thrown to Martin or hit on someone's head at any time from a distance of less than twenty meters.

 Bell took a deep breath, slowly unclenched his clenched fists, and gradually relaxed his tense body. He turned and walked towards the outside of the set.

While passing near the director's monitor, Bell said casually: "Sorry, I didn't control my movements well."

Nolan reminded: “Control your emotions and don't get too involved in the drama.”

  As if in his eyes, these are extensions of the emotions of the performance.

 Martin got up from the ground, and the makeup artist came in to touch up his makeup.

Nolan waved, and the screenwriter immediately trotted over.

“Records, the latest highlights.” Nolan suddenly felt tired. He had to make a film, control the conflicts between the two leading actors, and make up materials for later publicity and marketing. It was too difficult for him to be a director.

His talent in screenwriting is also outstanding: "Martin Davis is a very dedicated and hard-working workaholic. For the sake of the film's shooting effect, in the scene where Batman interrogates the Joker, he asked Bell to go all out and treat him without any scruples. It was ruthless and presented an extremely realistic fighting scene.”

 The screenwriter secretly lamented that the director's inspiration can burst out anytime and anywhere, while quickly recording it.

Because Martin is the core of the promotion and marketing, Nolan added: "Martin Davis endured physical pain while performing, which is really admirable."

The screenwriter is a member of the team of Nolan's brother Jonathan, and he records the “real behind-the-scenes” shot by the crew to the letter.

 After finishing work in the afternoon, Martin met Elena and Hall and left the studio together.

In the car, Elena asked: "Is filming action scenes so dangerous?"

Martin said with a smile: "The director is a real-shooting fanatic and strives for real effects."

Hall muttered: "That man has bad intentions."

 Martin pointed at Bruce who was driving: "As long as Old Bu is here, nothing will happen."

 Four people went to a nearby restaurant for dinner together.

Over at the set, Bell did not leave immediately. Just like these days, he took off his makeup and returned to one of the studios, where he continued physical and movement training with the assistance of two people from the stunt team.

Hibi could only stand aside and watch her husband sweat and energy.

 Since joining the group, Bell has been maintaining his physical condition.

After it was over, one of the stunt people said, "Chris, you're so dedicated."

Bell just smiled and went to take a shower and change clothes.

Meet Hibi, get on the bus and return to the hotel.

 “You're trying too hard,” Hibi said.

Bale replied: "I have to give it my all."

  Today's events made him understand that he had to be faster and more ruthless in order to turn that **** Martin into the next Daniel Day-Lewis.

Hebby added: "You have to be careful when shooting action scenes so you don't get injured like you did at Pinewood Studios."

 “No.” Bell responded.

In the incident at Pinewood Studios, the crew of "The Prestige" will certainly not publicly say that Bale was injured because he was frightened when he was fooling around with Blanchett.

 The public statement is, of course, that while filming in the pine forest, he was frightened by the explosion of fireworks and had an accident.

There are not many people who really know the inside story of this matter.

Then it was covered up by Emma Watson's “diaper scandal” and became silent.

Back at the hotel, after dinner, Xibby and Bell took a walk in the hotel garden and returned to the suite where they stayed.

 After taking a shower, Hibby put on a specially brought Victoria's Secret angel outfit, walked into the master bedroom of the suite with model steps.

Bell was shocked when he saw her dress like this, and secretly cried out.

 Hibi twisted the model's steps, getting closer and closer.

 Bell felt the faint pain of tearing again. This tearing feeling was like a nightmare that he could never get rid of.

"Dear..." Hibi came here from Los Angeles and was extremely enthusiastic.

Bell could only reluctantly refuse. He lay down sideways and pulled the quilt over him: "Today's shooting is all action scenes. I'm too tired. Go to bed early."

Hibi's face was instantly full of grievances, but she didn't give up. She rushed over and pressed on Bell.

 Bell was helpless: "Dear, please give me some time, I'm very stressed right now..."

Hibi turned over and lay in the empty space, and two lines of tears flowed down unsatisfactorily.

Staring at the ceiling blankly, I don't know how long it took. Not only did the flames on Xibi's body not dissipate, but it grew stronger and stronger.

She came to her senses and was about to go see Bell when she heard thunderous snoring.

Bell seemed to be asleep.

Hibi glanced at Bell's slightly trembling eyelashes, pretended not to notice, and left the bedroom alone.

The door slammed shut.

 Hibi was about to go to another bedroom, but when he saw the gift he had received, he suddenly had some ideas.

That clown has a very unique look.

Hibi came to lie on his side, opened the gift box, held the clown's legs together, and took out the statue.
