Exploiting Hollywood 1980 Chapter 774

Cher was wearing a black coat with **** black stockings underneath, a pair of red high-heeled shoes with red sequins on her feet, and long black hair with big waves, combined with the more three-dimensional facial features after makeup, it was simply A classic brunette beauty appeared in front of the crowd.

Cher's facial lines are very suitable for filming. Her cheekbones are a bit high, and she may be called mean, but with the combination of eye shadow and blush, it is very suitable for film shots under light, very three-dimensional. sense.

  The face has its own shadow, only one light is needed, no complex compound light source is needed to create the effect.

  All images on the movie screen are flat, and the human brain needs calculations to reconstruct the three-dimensional image of the human face. The more three-dimensional facial lines, the easier it is to be seen by the audience's human brain as good-looking. Coupled with the advanced lighting for filming, to be beautiful on the big screen, the requirements for actors are much higher than those in TV dramas.

   In a sense, whether an actor is suitable for the big screen is also selected by the **** of movies. Only actors who are favored by the **** of movies can be the protagonists.

  Cher made a dance pose and turned in from outside the camera. She is like Mimi, the protagonist of the opera "Bohemian", deeply intoxicated in love.

  Olympia Dukakis, entered the picture from another angle.

  David Watkin is indeed a very good director of photography. Based on the results of the rehearsal, he quickly arranged several camera angles to capture this story around the long dining table from different angles.

   He also made it just right that the camera would not capture other cameras, which was very clever. Sometimes, the dead angle of the shooting is just a little bit, and only a few tens of centimeters are suitable for the camera. Watkin quickly found the best angle based on experience.

   When the actors still have the feeling of quarreling just now, they can immediately start shooting.

   "God, what the **** happened to you?" Mother Rose saw her daughter dancing in a trance like she was dancing alone, waving a scarf in her hand, and couldn't help asking her soul.

   "I really don't know where to start..." Loretta, played by Cher, pulled up her chair and sat down beside the dining table.

   "Your hair is also different." Mother Rose keenly noticed Loretta's change.

   "Mom, everything is different." When Loretta was watching the opera last night, she found that she had found her true love, Ronnie with a wooden hand.

   "Are you drunk?" Mother Rose brought her daughter a cup of hot coffee.

"No, are you drunk?" Cher still had her dissatisfaction with Dukakis in her emotions. This rhetorical question fits Loretta's romantic feeling after she met the true love of her life. people are dissatisfied.

   "No, but I have a hangover." Rose, like her husband Cosmo, had to use alcohol to numb herself last night to fall asleep next to her cheating husband.

   "Where's Dad?" Loretta hadn't woken up from romance.

  "Upstairs", Ross brought himself another cup of coffee, "Johnny Camarelli came last night."

   "What? He's not in Sicily?" Loretta couldn't settle any more. She and Johnny's brother Ronnie were not ready to tell Johnny. Originally, Johnny had to wait for the funeral of his seriously ill mother before returning to New York to marry Loretta. Loretta still had time to slowly figure out how to explain it to Johnny.

   Suddenly found that he was about to face his fiancé Johnny, Loretta's heart was agitated and she stood up. Haven't enjoyed a few hours of romantic warmth, and was suddenly scared away by the violent conflict that was about to face.

   "He's not in Sicily. He came yesterday and chatted with everyone."

   "Impossible, he was in Sicily, his mother was dying, and he was there with her for the last ride." Loretta excitedly yelled in denial.

  People tend to deny the truth when they suddenly face something they cannot accept. Loretta is very excited to debate the fact that Johnny has returned to New York.

   "No he's back."

   "Impossible, he is in Sicily with his dying mother!"

   "His mother is well."

   "Impossible, she is seriously ill and dying."

   "It's a miracle!" Ross said sternly. She also hadn't completely gotten rid of the conflict with Xue Er. This kind of sullen tone was like a master of acting, watching a singing layman make a cameo appearance and making trouble for no reason.

   "Miracle? Miracle you... It's the modern era, there is no miracle anymore." Cher seems to be hitting back at the so-called master of acting skills, as long as one film is made well, it will suffice.

While raising the tone and amplifying the volume and arguing with her mother, Loretta quickly picked up the napkin on the table and started wiping the lipstick on her mouth. If Johnny came this morning, don't let him see through him and Ronnie had an affair .

   "Ha, I think Sicily still maintains the original rhythm and hasn't entered a modern era." Dukakis watched Cher's frantic performance, sat down slowly, and replied calmly. If you have acting skills, you don't need to work so hard.

   "He came directly from the airport, and he wanted to talk to you." Putting the coffee in the corner of the dining table, mother Rose saw her daughter's deliberate make-up, and already understood a bit of the problem.

   "You have a love hickey on your neck!" Suddenly Dukakis's voice rose, "What are you doing? Johnny is coming home this morning to talk to you."

  Loretta, played by Cher, was frightened and went to the glass of the cupboard to take a picture of herself.

  “Tsk…”

  Ronald watched the whole scene from behind the camera, and sure enough, the best performance was the true performance. Everyone's emotions were already in place during the morning's quarrel, and there was no need to do any psychological construction at all, and the vivid emotions in the memory were readily available.

Of course, Cher's performance was still a little off. Dukakis spoke with emotion and rhythm. Every sentence was stuck at the turning point of emotion. The rigorous training on Broadway made their lines very good. .

"What the **** did you do? Your beautiful future life was flushed down the toilet by yourself." Dukakis became more and more excited as she spoke. She spread her hands, palms up, and used up and down gestures to strengthen her argument.

   "Cover up the bite of your **** love, cover it up with foundation, and put on some makeup!"

   "Okay, okay, you have to help me." Cher took out the plush pajamas from behind the door, ready to change into a **** outfit.

   “Zi…”

   Suddenly the doorbell was rang, the mother and daughter looked at each other, is this Johnny here?

   "Oh, I'm going to change clothes, you go to open the door," Cher said to Dukakis.

   "Zi..." The people outside the gate kept ringing the doorbell.

   "Go open the door, Mom", Xue Er picked up her pajamas and went inside.

   "Um..." Rose, the mother played by Dukakis, kept shaking her head, expressing her disapproval of her daughter's meaningless comments after she fell in love.

  “Cut!”

   Ronald was actually not very satisfied with Cher's performance, she didn't consistently show the flustered performance of the heroine Loretta when things happened.

   Xueer herself is a big singer, of course she is not panic about such small things. But Loretta is just a small accountant, making a living by helping small Italian businessmen among relatives and friends as part-time accountants.

   Of course, I will be more nervous when I encounter such a thing that my fiancé smashes it on the spot.

But it doesn't matter, Ronald thought, such an emotional state is unattainable, don't waste time on such small details, the reversal of this scene is very intensive, and it takes only a few minutes for multiple characters to go back and forth. Turning, the audience's emotions were swayed up and down. It's better to let go of Cher's little flaws, at least her previous performance was very good.

   "The next game." Ronald said softly to the staff.

  Nicholas Cage appeared at the door of the gate and looked inside through the glass.

  Mother Rose saw that it was not Johnny, but another handsome guy of Italian descent. The star was younger than her daughter. I know in my heart what happened.

   She opened the door and yelled at her daughter, "Not Johnny!"

  Loretta opened the door and came out with her head tilted. She had changed into a set of home-made plush clothes and plush socks to dress up comfortably.

   "Oh, it's Ronnie." Loretta breathed a sigh of relief.

  Ronnie, played by Nicolas Cage, has a big back, and his hair is still a little dissatisfied. The black trench coat is carefully selected and looks very handsome.

   "Is Johnny there?" Ronnie asked Loretta inside.

   "I'm not here now, but he'll be here soon." Loretta felt a little calm when she saw her lover coming.

   "Very well, when he comes, we will spread out everything and put it on the table to make it clear."

   "Huh..." Mother Rose saw the two of them in this state, and her guess was confirmed by seven or eight points.

   "Hi, I'm Ronnie, Johnny's brother, nice to meet you." Ronnie stretched out his hand...and said to his mother Rose, who was blocking the way in the middle of the corridor.

   "I'm Rose Castorini, Loretta's mother."

"Nice to meet you."

  Mother Rose ignored LaRoney and looked at his neck with a handful of LaRoney's trench coat collar. "You have a love bite too."

   "Oh oh..." Loretta hugged her head, and Mother Rose saw through Ronnie's bottom in two strokes.

   "Your mother is in good health", Ross went to prepare oatmeal and shared the news of his mother's miraculous recovery.

   "Ah, that's a good thing, although I'm not very close to him."

   "You have to go, you have to go, you can't be here today." Loretta pushed Ronnie, she didn't want to face her fiancé Johnny and lover Ronnie in person.

   "I came to see your family today..." Ronnie came to Loretta's house after much thought.

   "Who wants oatmeal?" Mother Rose was there to prepare breakfast.

   "I want some," Ronnie pushed Loretta away, walked over to the table, and took off his coat. When it came to the other hand, it was inconvenient for the prosthetic hand to take off the sleeve. He took it off by biting the cuff with his mouth.

   "Tsk..." Ronald praised in his heart, Nicolas Cage was inspired by a group of old actors, and this little action of his fits the identity of Ronnie Camarelli with a wooden prosthetic hand.

  Performance is acting as a reaction, often playing against people with excellent acting skills, talented actors, it is difficult not to improve. In performance, the effect of teaching by example is far more than words.

  The camera is facing the hallway, and Vincent Gardenia, who plays his father Cosmo, comes in wearing a white shirt.

  The difficulty of this scene is also here, the characters walk into the kitchen one by one, eat and chat around the table. It is very similar to the process in which the actors pass through the entrance door to the center of the stage.

And as there are more and more actors, the drama itself becomes more and more complicated. It is necessary to grasp the focus of the whole scene, limit it to only two or three people, not overload the audience's attention, and watch the trick smoothly. It is a very important test of the director's scheduling and the performance of the actors.

   Cosmo sat down at the end of the long dining table. He looked at Ronnie, at the young man's wooden prosthetic hand. He looked at his daughter Loretta again. He drank a lot of alcohol last night, and for a while, he couldn't figure out what the relationship between the two was.

  Loretta did not dare to look at her father, and lowered her head silently.

  Cosmo had to ask Ronnie, "Are you Ronnie? Johnny's brother?"

   "Yes, nice to meet you, I'm Ronnie Camarelli."

  Toronto, Canada, there is no representative of the photographers' union watching on the set, and no one cares about the rules that the director of photography can't take the shot himself.

  Director of Photography David Watkin personally went into battle, zoomed in on the zoom lens, and took a super close-up of the face of Vincent Gardenia who played Cosmo.

   He uses a zoom lens, not for any zoom effect. But the time of this scene is particularly important. In order to save time and change the lens, the mood of the actors cooled down. By pulling the lens between zooms, you can achieve lenses with different focal lengths, which is equivalent to using a zoom lens as a fixed-focus lens.

  Vincent Gardenia's acting skills are extraordinary, he looks dull, but he also quickly figured out the relationship between the two. When he went to the opera with his lover yesterday, he happened to meet his daughter.

   I just didn't expect that this daughter's lover was actually her fiance's younger brother.

  Mother Rose came to bring oatmeal to everyone, and daughter Loretta was looked at by her father's strange eyes and couldn't stand it, "Don't look at me like that, Dad."

   "Go on, keep going." Ronald was behind the camera, excited. He felt that this shooting was like a divine help, just like the **** of movies accidentally opened his eyes and looked at this studio in the next Toronto session. The state of this shot is surprisingly good. I hope that the next actor will join in and it will be maintained. go down.

   If it is a continuous long shot, it will be amazing, the emotions of the actors are smooth, and the viewing experience of the audience will be much better.

   "Hi, morning, Dad." Mother Rose heard the old man coming downstairs.

  The old man played by Fedor Chaliapin, with a dissatisfied expression, walked into the kitchen slowly and found his seat.

   "What's the matter, Dad." Father Cosmo saw that the old man's mental state was not right and asked him what happened.

   "I'm old, and when I'm old, I'm despised by others. Even if I talk, no one will take it seriously."

  Another camera was facing the front of the old man, shooting from a slightly upward angle.

   Fedor Chaliapin is very energetic in the upside-down picture, showing the style of an old grandfather.

   "Son, I gotta talk, you're paying for your only daughter's wedding. Your arrogance is ruining your family.

   That's all I have to say, I'm done. "

   After saying that, the old man pulled out the chair and sat down.

   This is the first unexpected twist of the scene. No one would have imagined that in the end it was this grandfather who was a bit old Hutu, who stood up for his granddaughter and used an old man's dignity to get his stingy son to agree to pay for his daughter's wedding.

  Loretta's first wedding he didn't pay!

   "It's okay, Dad, I agree. If Loretta gets married, I'll pay for all the wedding expenses."

   Vincent Gardenia's face, which is kind of funny on camera. This Cosmo's character is very scheming. He just saw the relationship between his daughter and Ronnie, and knew that the marriage between Loretta and Johnny is likely to be cancelled, so there is no problem with his mouth.

  Who would marry this hapless widow?

  Loretta, played by Cher, made a face at her father Cosmo. She knew what his father thought, but she was still very happy to agree to Grandpa's request. For a while, I felt that Castorini was worth it.

   "Bravo, you're just talking like that, okay, okay!" The grandfather was very relieved, happy for his granddaughter Loretta, and excited that he could still be heard.

  Mother Rose gave Grandpa a bowl of oatmeal, and then she went to the other end of the long table with all her heart, and sat opposite her husband Cosmo at both ends of the long table.

   Just when everyone was eating oatmeal, maybe Cosmo was soft on the old man just now, maybe it was the daughter's problem, which made Mother Rose frown at the big family.

   Then she clasped her hands together, facing her husband Cosmo at the other end of the dining table, and asked a strange peak.

   "Am I a good wife?"

   Husband Cosmo looked up in surprise, he didn't know why Rose asked this suddenly, "Of course."

  Ross got the answer she wanted, a smile appeared on her face, and then she resumed her seriousness, and word by word, she said the request she wanted to say for a long time:

   "I hope you never see her again."

   The sound of people scooping oatmeal on the plate with metal spoons suddenly stopped.

  The cameras on both sides of the dining table captured the reactions of Loretta and Ronnie. Loretta covered her head. She talked to her mother Rose at church, and Rose said she knew that Cosmo had a lover outside.

  Ronnie showed a curious look. It seemed that the situation in the Castorini family was not much more chaotic than the Camarelli family.

   Another camera is on the old man on the other side of the table.

   Fyodor Chaliapin was so deaf that he didn't hear Dukakis's lines at all. But the reaction of everyone clearly told him that it was now at that point.

   He looked left at Cosmo's reaction, then right at Rose's. The old man had to rely on his children to take care of him. He didn't dare to publish what he had already done, so he quickly lowered his head and drank porridge.

   Ronald watched his father Cosmo's reaction and acted very well.

  Ross didn't ask Cosmo if he had a lover, or who his lover was, how they met, and what to do now, such a vulgar woman.

  Ross is very smart. After the general made his husband Cosmo's house with the question of whether he was a good wife, he directly put forward his request that Cosmo would not see that woman again.

   Generally, husbands who are caught **** will either deny or deny, or simply pick on the faults of their wives. But Cosmo said just now that Rose is a good wife, and those options are gone.

   The expression on his face was more shock than embarrassment.

   All kinds of emotions poured into the fat face, actor Vincent Gardenia stood up slowly, looking at his wife's sad face...

"Snapped!"

   He suddenly slapped the table. He was once proud of having a lover outside and a wife at home. The arrangement was very good. In the end, he was understood by Ross, and his every move was under the control of his wife.

   The old man was taken aback by his son's slap, and he fell back in surprise. It wasn't that he was frightened by the sound, but that Cosmo's palm was right next to his rice bowl.

  Fyodor Chaliapin turned his back to the camera, his whole body was covered in drama. After he was surprised, he couldn't understand what it was, so he leaned back and continued to eat porridge.

   "Tsk..." Ronald pouted, he could steal the show with his back.

   "OK!" Cosmo patted the table hard, but spoke softly.

   "You still have to go to church to confess." Rose's face showed a triumphant smile. Her husband agreed to cut off contact with his lover and went to church to confess his sins. In Italian culture, this is equivalent to fully admitting that you have done something wrong, and you will not be connected to that woman again in the future.

   Cosmo shook his head and smiled bitterly, "A man will one day discover that his life is built on nothingness."

  Who knows, yesterday it was one at home and one outside, and today it was a dream that was punctured like a piece of paper?

   Olympia Dukakis' face suddenly became very excited, with tears in her eyes, and her chin trembled slightly with excitement.

  Ross said one sentence at a time, gritted his teeth and said what was in his heart:

   "Your life is not built on nothingness..."

   "TiAmo (Italian I love you)." Ross's tone was a little deformed, saying the oath of Italian love.

  "Ano (I love you too, when Cosmo heard his wife's crying confession, he was also excited, as if he had returned to the time when he was standing downstairs at his wife's house when he was young.

   Then he blew a kiss to his wife Rose, his voice trembling with excitement.

  Ross felt her husband's true feelings and held back the tears that were about to flow.

  Loretta, played by Cher, didn't expect that it was her own problem, and suddenly her parents came too.

   She rolled her eyes and looked at Ronnie beside her.

  Ronnie immediately made a TiAmo expression, causing Loretta to roll his eyes again. Love is there, what about the rest of Johnny?

   "Zi..." The doorbell rang again.

   "Johnny is here, I'm going to open the door." Loretta covered her face, and she had to face it after all.

   "I'll go, I'll make it clear to him." Ronnie loved his lover and went to open the door.

   "No no, I'll go." Loretta let Ronnie sit, she looked at her father Cosmo, "What should I tell Johnny?"

   The old man over there was still looking at a few family members with a puzzled expression. He tried to speak, but he couldn't say anything, so he had to lower his head and continue drinking porridge.

   "To be honest, Loretta, they will know sooner or later." Father Cosmo said to his daughter from his own experience.

   "Oh...you're right, TiAmo, Dad."

   "TiAmo, my little cookie."

  Loretta was about to open the door when she found that the door was already open, and standing there were Uncle Raymond and Aunt Rita.

   They looked at Loretta as if something big had happened.

   Aunt Rita looked at Loretta as if she had committed some serious crime, "Do you have anything to say to us? Darling."

  Loretta looked puzzled, "No, what?"

   Uncle Raymond glanced at his wife and decided to give his niece another chance, "We just got back from the bank."

   "So?" Loretta still looked puzzled, "Oh, my God, I forgot to deposit the cash in your store in the bank."

  Loretta went to the bag and found the cash. She was the accountant in her aunt and aunt's store. Yesterday was the day she sent the cash to the bank. She had a date with Ronnie on the way to get her hair done, and she forgot about it.

   "God, great, her money is still there."

   Uncle and Aunt walked towards Ross, "It was a strange day yesterday..."

   "We never doubted you, but yesterday was really weird."

   "Sit down and have some coffee."

The    family found out that it was a misunderstanding, just like the Italians, they gestured exaggeratedly to tell their unnecessary worries.

  Aunt Rita was attentive, she noticed that everyone's expressions were wrong, "So what are we doing?"

   "Wait, wait for Johnny to come." Mother Rose told her.

  Rita saw Ronnie, then looked at Loretta, and knew the problem was with the young man.

   "This is Johnny's brother, Ronnie Camarelli," Ross hinted at sister-in-law Rita.

   "Oh, hello, I'm Rita Kapomaggi"

  Rita saw his unusual relationship with his niece. She looked at Rose with a questioning look in her eyes. Isn't your daughter engaged to Johnny?

  Ross returned a look that you were right about.

  Rita looked at Cosmo again, and Cosmo nodded as well.

   Then Loretta, Loretta grimaced.

  The last is the old man of Hutu. He looked left and right. Everyone was embarrassed and didn't speak. The atmosphere in the air gradually solidified. The old man couldn't stand it anymore.

  Everyone didn't speak, only Ronnie was moved by the old man's sense of humor and laughed out loud. No one echoed him, and it was a bit embarrassing for a while.

   “Zi…”

   The doorbell finally rang.

   Aunt Rita, who felt that something was wrong today, went to open the door.

  "Johnny Camarelli", Rita announced to everyone.

   "Hey hey..." Johnny laughed dryly when he entered the door, he was always so cautious.

   "Loretta?" Johnny was first taken aback when he saw Loretta, who was completely different from before.

   "Ronnie?" Johnny was continuously surprised today, "Are you here to reconcile with me? Ronnie?"

   "Yes, but it's not necessarily what you want." Ronnie stood up and said to his brother, who was here to grab the bride.

   "Of course I want to reconcile with you." Johnny looked at Ronnie, thinking he had agreed to attend his wedding, a little relieved.

   "Didn't you say your mother was dying? How did she get better?" Loretta asked Johnny.

   "I told her I was getting married soon and she was fine. It was a miracle," Johnny replied.

   "Of course it's a miracle." Ronnie knew very well that the mother of Palermo, Sicily, always liked to use this method to manipulate her son's behavior.

   "Johnny, I have something to tell you." Loretta stood up, she decided to face the situation she created, use her father Cosmo's tactics, and tell the truth.

   "Loretta, I also have something to tell you, but can you come out and let us talk alone?" Johnny also had something to say.

   "No, I want to be with my family, just say something here."

   Danny Aiello, who played Johnny, is also a Broadway character actor. He looked at Cher and said solemnly:

   "Loretta, I can't marry you."

   "Huh... huh?" Cher's change of expression was very good. Loretta's remarks were completely unexpected.

   "If I marry you, my mother will die." Johnny is very superstitious. He has a personal experience of Loretta's bad luck. His mother almost died because of his engagement, so he came to dissolve the engagement.

   "What are you talking about?" Loretta was puzzled.

   "What are you talking about?" Ronnie was dissatisfied, and Johnny was willing to break off the marriage, right?

   "I promise again, he made a promise, this is the engagement ring", Loretta showed Ronnie and Johnny the engagement ring on her middle finger.

   "My mom almost died, and now she's okay, I can't marry you."

   "Oh, Johnny, you are 42 years old and still being controlled by her." Ronnie couldn't stand his brother's life being controlled by his mother.

   "What about you? You are a son who doesn't love his mother." Johnny was especially dissatisfied with his brother's rebellion against his mother.

   "What about you? You big liar, I have a ring here as proof. You proposed to me, but now you want to go back on it."

   "Loretta, I have to get my ring back."

   "You..., okay", Loretta took off the ring and threw it on Johnny, "The engagement is canceled!"

Johnny didn't catch the ring and fell to the ground. He was also very angry. He didn't expect to encounter such fierce abuse, "You will understand later, Loretta, this is the best for you." Johnny pointed at Luo Retta said.

  Loretta was irritated by Johnny's own gesture of fingering, "In the future, you will fart, and I will wear red clothes to your funeral."

  The mentality of the two of them collapsed, and they began to scold me one by one.

   "Loretta," Ronnie said suddenly.

"What?!"

"will you marry me?"

   "What?" Johnny, who had just picked up the ring, knelt on the ground and raised his head. He heard a strange sentence, his brother Ronnie actually proposed to his ex-fiancee, Loretta.

   "Where's the ring? Where's the proposal ring?" Loretta was dissatisfied, the two brothers did not prepare a ring for the proposal.

   "Johnny, can you lend me the ring?" Ronnie asked his brother for the ring.

  Johnny looked at his brother and then at Loretta. Although he was extremely embarrassed, he still wanted to reconcile with his brother. After hesitating for a few seconds, he still handed the ring to his brother.

   "Loretta Castorini, will you marry me?"

  Loretta's face turned cloudy and clear, "Yes, Ronnie, in the presence of my family, I am willing to marry you."

   "Oh, Loretta, do you love him?" Mother Rose saw that her daughter was deeply in love.

   "Yes, I love him so much."

   "Oh, that's too bad." Ross bowed his head and smiled bitterly, loving a man and often forgiving his shameful shortcomings. "

   "Did you hear that? She loves me." Ronnie put his mind down, he hoped that Loretta would marry him because of love.

  The two hugged happily, looked at each other for a while, and then started to kiss.

   The camera on the other side started to shoot at the old man.

   The old man wiped his eyes tremblingly with a tissue, as if he was crying.

   "What's the matter with you, Dad?" Cosmo asked.

   Fyodor Chaliapin put down the tissue, "I painted the lake."

   Cosmo nodded, everyone has to do it.

   "Cut!"

   "Cut! Cut!"

   Ronald stopped filming.

  The actors seemed to stop for more than ten seconds, unable to believe that such a difficult scene was over.

   Ronald saw that David Watkin gave him an OK gesture, "Come on, let's eat."

   It was almost two o'clock in the afternoon, and all the actors had not eaten. Ronald hurriedly asked his assistant to serve the meal.

   "Uh..." Ronald's own stomach also made a loud noise.

"Hahaha…"

  The actors began to applaud, expressing their happiness for such a wonderful show.

   "How did you do it? Ronald." Olympia Dukakis did a great job. This scene has many twists and turns, and the rivalry between the actors is also very exciting. Even on Broadway, not every show can be performed so vividly.

   "Maybe the God of Movies answered my prayers and is opening his eyes and looking down at us." Ronald didn't know why it went so well. Maybe the actor's previous state just matched, maybe everyone was hungry for a long time, and they all wanted to show their best performance as soon as possible after filming and eating.

  Perhaps, it was just a coincidence that everyone played except the best.

  The actors all had something to eat, and Ronald didn't have time to eat, so he and the crew's technicians began to rearrange the seats. Immediately afterwards, Ronald directed the final scene of the film.

  The camera shoots right in by the kitchen door, where the family celebrates Loretta and Ronnie's engagement with champagne.

  Everyone added a cube of sugar to the champagne in accordance with the Italian tradition and toasted.

  Johnny sat alone and was gloomy, or the old man brought him a glass of champagne, "Johnny, come on, for the sake of the big family, don't you understand? We are all part of the big family."

   "For the family!"

   "For the family!"

  Johnny is not unhappy, raise a glass to celebrate with everyone.

  The wine glasses were touched together, Ronald and David Watkin stepped back together, and the camera slowly exited the dining room and into the living room hallway.

  The camera slowly turned around and took a group photo on the wall.

   It has photos of Loretta as a child, as well as photos of Cosmo and Ross getting married, and photos of Ross and his brother Raymond when they were kids.

  The camera continued to move to the right, and finally stopped at a group photo, which was the first photo of the old man's parents after they immigrated to America from Palermo, Sicily.

   The two elderly people in the photo looked at the children and grandchildren and seemed to have a gratified smile.

  The camera slowly zooms in…

   "Cut!"

   "Oh, my God. It's finally over."

  Ronald finally let go of his worries, and only felt dizzy, as if he hadn't eaten at noon, and the high-intensity mental work in the afternoon brought sequelae.

   Unlike the actors who can go to the trailer to refill some snacks at any time, the director of photography also finds time to eat and sleep, Ronald has been thinking about the shooting with high tension.

   The high-intensity pressure was suddenly released, Ronald felt his eyes darkened, and the low blood sugar made him stumble and almost fell.

   "Are you all right?" David Watkin gave him a hand.

   "Give me a sugar cube, I seem to have low blood sugar."
