Rebirth In Hollywood

Chapter 102 Shooting

On the first day of March, the crew officially started the film in silence. Compared with the previous life, the filming time of this film was a whole year earlier.

Ryan also met the three leading actors on the set. As in previous lives, Liam Neeson, Ben Kingsley and Ralph Fiennes will play Oscar Schindler and Isaac Stein respectively. and Amon Goss.

He is not familiar with Ben Kingsley, but Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes are different. He has seen a lot of works by these two people in previous lives.

The former starred in the Star Wars series as early as the 1970s and 1980s, and later participated in the Star Wars prequels, and there are many rival plays with Natalie. After entering the new century, he also starred in "Hurricane Rescue" and "Dragon Special Strike Team". " and other commercial masterpieces.

As for the latter, Ryan can remember that he is very simple, in addition to Amon Goss, he is also the role of Voldemort.

Ryan heard from Kingsley that the Schindler actor that Spielberg liked most was Harrison Ford, but unfortunately the latter rejected his invitation. Warren Beatty once came to recommend himself, but the old man didn't even think He refused, and let a playboy with a messy statement play such a serious role, which would be a disaster.

Although Oskar Schindler himself is a true playboy.

Well, Liam Neeson is also a playboy. Ryan is an insider after all. He knows a little bit. In recent years, he has been with Helen Mirren, Brooke Shields, Julia Roberts and others. have been in contact.

By the way, last year Julia Roberts staged a real-life version of a runaway bride. Could it be him who was kicked out of luck? Ryan began to think wildly again.

The first shot was a scene with a large number of extras. The Jews, driven by the Nazi SS, lined up like livestock, waiting for inspection and registration. Among them, there were close-up people, or professional Jews. American actor, or 'Schindler's Jew'.

Everyone understands the heavy history behind this film, and even if there is no role, many actors, including Ryan and Natalie, came to the set, looking for a sense of belonging to that history.

Different from the previous filming, perhaps it was some of Ryan's suggestions that reminded Spielberg that he contacted the National Jewish Association and reached a consensus that the other party specially dispatched several staff to the crew to solve some problems. unnecessary trouble.

"Is it cold, Nate?" Ryan looked at the girl beside him with concern.

Although they were sitting in a tent and had hot drinks to ward off the cold, Natalie's thin body made him feel very uneasy.

"I'm fine, Ryan, you should take care of yourself, look at you, your nose is red."

After coming to Poland, perhaps the atmosphere of the whole crew was too heavy. Both Ryan and Natalie were silent a lot, and they also reduced their disputes in public. Shooting such a serious subject, there are many survivors of the year. It would be too bad if he did something rude.

Ryan is better, but Natalie and Mrs. Shelly are true Jews. They have talked with many survivors of the past few days, and they have gained a lot of insight into that period of history, especially the first two days. While visiting Auschwitz, this strong and intelligent girl also shed a very rare tear.

He couldn't help but think of a report from a previous life accusing Natalie Portman of refusing to issue a statement condemning Israel's expulsion of Palestinians, and the reporter who wrote this article must have a weird head...

A nation with such a painful past,

It's definitely not a blessing, Spielberg held up a loudspeaker and directed extras wearing large satellites to run around, the anxiety and heaviness on his face could not be concealed, working long hours under such great pressure, right The human spirit is a great test.

There are not many scenes belonging to Ryan and Natalie, especially since the two are still students, it is impossible to stay in Poland for too long, and several of their scenes were arranged in March.

However, the shooting progress was far from being as smooth as expected. Except for the construction site of the concentration camp, many scenes were shot in the real locations of the year, which is tantamount to retracing the heavy history.

People like Ryan and Natalie are okay to say, even if they feel it, they just feel depressed, and the Jewish survivors and their descendants of that year, many people hugged and cried during the filming, whenever this happened. In this case, the crew had to suspend filming.

In the trailer that served as the dressing room, Ryan looked at the shape in the mirror. After the makeup artist left, the bright color in his eyes gradually disappeared, his resolute face was also changing, and the always erect back slowly bent down, strong. The wise boy turned into a fearful and shy boy in an instant.

I haven't played any roles for almost a year, and it seems that my acting skills have not deteriorated. He sighed in his heart. In fact, he knew very well that over time, the performance had penetrated into his soul.

"Ryan, are you all right?" It wasn't the assistant who knocked on the door, but Natalie.

"How did you come?"

"I saw the assistant coming to call you, um... I came over in his place."

Ryan put on a dark dome hat and a vest of the same color, looked at the big satellite on his left chest, and sighed, if nothing else happened, he would 'die' in the camera today.

Putting on a thick down jacket, Ryan shuddered as soon as he stepped out of the trailer. Although the sun was shining today, the temperature would never exceed ten degrees Fahrenheit. He was indeed wearing a little thinner.

"Come on, Ryan, it's time for Mr. Spielberg to wait."

Probably because she could watch her friend's acting skills live, Natalie seemed a little impatient.

In the makeshift studio, Ryan wrapped his down jacket tightly and waited for Ralph Fiennes. He looked around from time to time, and Natalie was staring at him curiously. Ryan couldn't help thinking, yes Not to hold her in his arms for warmth.

Seems like a good idea, and a humanoid heater should work just fine, provided, of course, Natalie doesn't resist.

Ralph Fiennes walked in in a Nazi uniform, with a faint smell of alcohol, and in order to show the madness and evil of Amon Gauss, he would drink a small glass of whiskey before shooting.

This guy keeps drinking, and by the time the filming is over, a Guinness World Record will be set. Ryan has no doubts about this, after all he has a lot of roles.

However, this later Voldemort, like Gary Oldman, was perfectly suited for this wicked character, if nothing else, a Holocaust survivor when he first appeared on set in a Nazi uniform. She was so frightened that she trembled.

"Ryan, Ralph, are you ready?" Spielberg finally confirmed.

"no problem."

Ryan took off his coat, picked up the prop brush, and walked into the built bathroom.

After two simple test shots, Spielberg nodded and gestured to each department, indicating that the official shooting would be next.

"Scenario 17 of Game 28, Now Begins"

The emaciated Jewish teenager squatted by the bathtub, using a brush dipped in soap bubbles to remove the stains on the bathtub hard. There was the sound of leather boots rattling outside. It must be that the crazy murderous demon has returned.

The boy trembled in fear, and looked back to the bathroom door from time to time. He knew very well what kind of fate awaited him if he couldn't finish the work in time.

He held the brush tightly in both hands, which was the only tool he could decide his own destiny, and used all his strength to scrub the bathtub, but unfortunately, those stains were like Nazi fascism, and it was difficult to eradicate no matter what.

At this moment, the young man seemed to see his tragic ending.

The sound of leather boots got closer, and as the door opened, a Nazi officer in a short-sleeved shirt stood at the bathroom door.

The young man quickly stood up and saluted, and at the same time took off his dome hat, hunched over his body, and said shyly, "Report... Report sir, I can't remove the stains on the bathtub..."

The Nazi officer came over, and the Jewish boy quickly stepped aside, his body trembling with fear.

"What are you using?" said the officer, bending over to check the bathtub.

"Soap... sir!"

"Soap, why don't you use concentrated lye?" the officer asked dissatisfied.

The teenager nervously squeezed the hat in his hand and peeked at the Nazi officer. He didn't know what kind of fate awaited him.

It seems like a century has passed, and unexpected words sounded, "That's it, you can go, I... forgive you!"

The Nazi officer said, and made a gesture of pardon.

The Jewish boy hurried out of the bathroom with the joy of having his life back.

"Great! It's over!"

After Spielberg shouted, Ryan unconsciously touched his nose. It might be because of his constitution. He was a little disgusted by the smell of alcohol. Standing next to Ralph Fiennes just now, it was really uncomfortable. .

Of course, there is also the cold!

It's just a makeshift photo studio, with sets everywhere, but no equipment like heaters or stoves.

Fortunately, he still had a temporary assistant. Before he could go back, Natalie had already walked over with the down jacket and quickly put it on him.

"Thank you, Nate." Ryan wrapped his clothes tightly.

"Is it really that cold?" Natalie rolled her eyes, pointed to the other side quietly, and said in a low voice, "Look at Mr. Fiennes, he only wears a short-sleeved shirt, and he doesn't look like you. Vice-look."

Ryan pouted, leaned into Natalie's ear and said, "Dear Nat, if I had that fat, I wouldn't be afraid of the cold either."

Natalie almost laughed, but luckily she remembered what movie it was filming, and couldn't help giving Ryan a hard look.

He scratched his face and quickly changed the subject, "Did you see that, Nate, this is my strength!"

"But that's all."

Natalie was disdainful in her official language, but she knew in her heart that Ryan's acting skills were indeed extraordinary. She stayed in the crew for so many days and saw three more performances by the main actors. Compared with them, she felt that she was a good friend. Seems to be better than that.
