Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 119 Black Swan

Judy had never known that playing a villain was such a joy.

Powerful, feminist, gay.

Charlotte's role as a serial killer is, to a certain extent, a replica of Judy.

Although she didn't know whether this setting was a coincidence or deliberate, Judy knew that she could play this role in her own right.

All she had to do was express the anger and resentment she had stored up in her heart for a long time in a crazy way.

This is really not a problem for a double Oscar winner.

However, she did not expect that she would be so deeply involved in the drama all of a sudden——

As soon as the director said "", she was immersed in a layer of violent emotions.

This is the mood of the character she designed for herself.

Although due to the short appearance time of the character and the exaggerated overall performance, Judy can play the image of a serial killer well whether she uses a pure performance expressionist or a soul-focused approach, but in the end she still chose Methodist way.

Because she felt that this seemed to be a good channel to vent her long-term stress.

The character setting, which is like a darkened version of herself, allows Judy to easily and reasonably express all the pressure that has been weighing on her heart.

This made it extremely easy for her to get into the role, and she even felt like she was immersed in it.

This even scared Judy a little.

She seemed to have lost control and was completely following the character's actions.

Judy knew that this was a sign of deep involvement in the drama. Although she often used method acting methods in the past, she rarely reached this level.

This is the realm that, according to legend, only method masters such as Daniel Day-Lewis can achieve.

Although Judy has won two Oscars, she is actually still outside the highest palace in this regard.

After all, she is too rational and smart, and her career success has, to a certain extent, prevented her from climbing to the top of her acting skills.

However, today's role suddenly allowed her to step into the door of the highest palace——

The deep immersion in the play made Judy's dark emotions that had been accumulated in her heart for a long time pour out.

That kind of hearty venting made her feel slightly drunk, and even had the urge to moan.

Intoxicated by this feeling, even the pleasure of being freed from negative emotions brought by human skin books in the past seems insignificant.

Judy performed to her heart's content and released her inner emotions. She seemed to be floating in the clouds, her whole body was light and airy, until——

"boom!"

The sound of the prop gun seemed extra loud. It was obviously just a blank bullet, but Judy felt like she had been hit in the heart.

"Cut!"

With the sound of the sound, the scene finally ended.

As if the tide receded, the immersive feeling of being in the drama slowly disappeared from Judy, replaced by an unprecedented sense of relaxation.

Judy's heart had never felt so relaxed in ten years.

It was as if all the emotions that had been building up in her heart for so many years since the Hinckley incident had disappeared. Judy learned for the first time what it felt like to be relieved.

However, this sense of relief was quickly replaced by embarrassment——

Charlotte finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the gunfire.

Of course he didn't replace the blank ammunition with live ammunition. After all, even if Jodie Foster is killed, the painting thing will not end there.

He must solve the problem more fundamentally.

Of course, this doesn't mean that he didn't use some tricks this time.

In fact, both Charlize and Jodie Foster were lightly hypnotized before the performance.

As he once said, his hypnosis cannot make the hypnotized person behave contrary to his or her original intention.

However, it can help them release their emotions better.

Sure enough, Jodie Foster and Charlize joined the cast one after another, and the scenes of mutual drama surprised Charlotte as a director.

Especially for Jodie Foster, the reason why Charlotte put her in a jacket made of painted skin was because she hoped to establish more connections between the image of the serial killer and the painted skin and the evil god behind it in the movie.

At the same time, it is also hoped that Judy can release the dark side of her heart through performance, thereby reducing her dependence on human skin books or evil gods.

——Otherwise, why would he put so much effort into modifying the serial killer's character?

——Isn’t it just to get close to Jodie Foster on a reasonable basis so that she can be included in the show more conveniently?

Judging from the relieved expression on the actress's face, this goal seems to have been achieved.

But I wonder if there will be any additional gains?

Moreover, not only Judy, but also Charlize, who plays opposite her, is acting extremely relaxed due to her extraordinary performance today.

However, for some reason, compared to the actress' simple and relaxed look, Charlize's face was a little red and seemed a little nervous.

"What's happening here?"

Charlotte was a little confused.

************

In any case, the filming of the serial killer scene was completed.

Because considering that this part of the performance is actually not easy, Charlotte originally prepared for one and a half to two days of filming.

——Although he considered using various methods to help Charlize and Jodie Foster enter the scene, he did not expect that the two would become dramatic because of mutual stimulation.

As a result, this troublesome scene passed within half a day.

"Then, do you want everyone to relax a little bit later?"

Lao Qiang asked the timetable.

"That's not necessary!"

Charlotte scratched her head,

"We have already taken a break this morning. If we take another break tomorrow, the atmosphere on the set will be too relaxed."

"Right."

Lao Qiang agreed, but glanced at Charlotte strangely - he could guess a little bit about why he suddenly had a half-day break this morning.

"Then let's speed up the progress! Faster progress is always a good thing."

"That's right."

Charlotte nodded without shame.

"Speaking of which, the character setting of the serial killer played by Jodie Foster this time is a bit different from that in ordinary movies!"

Lao Qiang talked about his feelings,

"Generally in movies, this kind of killer is strong and demonic, as if he is a demon from hell. But this time -"

"More human, right?"

Charlotte's next words behind the old gun:

"She is actually still a demon, but a demon in human skin! The character setting and background we established for her can make her actions seem more logical."

"Is it logical?"

Lao Qiang nodded,

"Indeed, in past movies, the appearance of this kind of character was more like a natural disaster. But we have given a basically self-consistent explanation. I just don't know whether this explanation makes her more terrifying or not. ?”

"It's hard to tell!"

Charlotte smiled bitterly and shook her head.

"The unknown represents fear, but also, sometimes, the more you understand, the more fear you will have - you see, these two views are summarized by people, but they are completely opposite."

"That means we can only see the audience's reaction after the release?"

"yes!"

In fact, if it were not for the convenience of dealing with the painting and the evil god behind it, Charlotte would not have designed the image of the serial killer to fit Jodie Foster herself.

——It’s just a supporting role, why bother with it?

However, thinking about the harvest this time, Charlotte felt that the toil was still meaningful.

At least John Hinckley's ROHM RG-14 pistol really completed the mark of the evil god.

The conditions for killing gods have gradually matured.
