The Best Director

Today, the set of "The Dead" is in a quiet cemetery, among the pine trees, with tombstones erected on the green lawn. The performance area is full of police officers, a silver band playing mournful music, and farewells in police uniforms or formal attire. Police officers and old priests held Bibles in their hands and read funeral prayers to the coffin covered with stars and stripes. A large photo frame with a picture of "Billy" with a heroic smile in police uniform was placed in front, and the atmosphere was very solemn.

This scene was Billy's funeral. The "deceased" Heath Ledger was not present, otherwise it would have been so weird that everyone couldn't get into the scene. This was the only character played by Natalie and Knightley to appear at the same time. In the scene, both of them looked sad at this time, Natalie's eyes were red, and she was very sad and regretful; Michael Pitt on the other side had a silent face, his brows seemed to be furrowed, sad? regret? Secretly happy? Guilty? I don’t know what I’m thinking about.

After September, the filming of the two female characters was gradually completed. Among them, Natalie, who played a supporting role in "Blueberry Nights" that had been filmed for three months, cooperated more smoothly with the crew. If it weren't for Wong Kar-wai Filmmaking is notoriously slow. Three months is enough for a romantic movie to have all the supporting roles; and The Wonder King is famously fast. Since being transferred to the set of "The Dead", Natalie has really had a hearty pleasure. ,Cool!

"CUT! Very good, prepare for the next shot!" In order to capture the panoramic view, the photography team was located quite far away, and Wang Yang shouted with satisfaction.

In fact, this shot does not require them to perform, because it is not a close-up, and the focus area is not them. In other words, their facial expressions are basically unclear from the images captured on film, but the leading actors are still fully engaged. This is A great performance. When taking close-ups, close-up shots, etc. The emotions they brew over and over are better.

Although the two women were a bit wordy, they were like "aunts" when they met each other... It is worth mentioning that since "The Big Bang Theory" appeared "I-hilarious jokes, this kind of Metaphors have gradually become the most popular depiction of something among young people.

Anyway, Lili is incompatible with fire and water, but the two of them are worthy of being the youngest Oscar nominees. When dealing with such characters who were originally able to handle such roles with ease, both of them performed amazingly and not only exceeded their expectations. They also bring their own unique temperament and charm to the characters. Sometimes this is the difference between superstars and ordinary actors. They always find an impressive way to interpret two ordinary characters with little performance into female police officers. , a classic among female psychiatrists.

Hearing the director's cry of CUT, the big fat Harry George turned off the camera, and everyone stopped. Natalie and Knightley, who had recovered, glanced at each other intentionally or unintentionally, and then continued to participate in the preparation work. To a certain extent, it is precisely because of this secretly competitive mentality. Make them full of energy.

On the set of Pokémon, no one dared to make mistakes. Of course, it had something to do with the fact that the actors he found were all dedicated and good-tempered. On this day, the two of them temporarily put aside their inexplicable grudges. It was a happy day to bid farewell to this scene with not many shots, even though the atmosphere on the set was very gloomy.

Although Keira Knightley doesn't have many scenes,

But since the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" in which she stars is in full swing in California, the crew will soon go to Singapore to shoot most of the scenes. It is a very urgent matter for her to leave the crew to film "The Dead" due to the time difference. Therefore, "The Dead" took good care of her. In addition to organizing the shooting schedule, they also worked overtime for her on weekends. Wang Yang even slowed down the progress of "I Am Legend" so that she could finish the work quickly.

"Yang, this is my good friend, Alexa Chung. She is 3/8 Chinese. She has always liked your movies."

On this day, "The Dead" was filming the interior scene of Colin's apartment. Knightley brought a young female friend to visit, a tall, elegant brown-haired Chinese mixed-race. Alexa, who was dressed in a trendy style, was obviously also a very fashionable person. A cool girl with a personality, but when she saw Qi Qiyang, she obviously couldn't hold back her excitement and her face turned a little red. She finally met her idol for many years!

"Hello, Alishan, nice to meet you." Wang Yang nodded and stretched out his hand without much care. Alishan quickly shook hands with him, looked at him intently, and smiled with a British accent: " Hello, Amazing Young! This is great, I have loved you since I was 14 years old, and I love your humor the most, haha! And my dad, Firefly is his favorite movie, Our whole family is a fan of yours.”

Wang Yang couldn't help but smile: "Oh, thank you! This is also a great thing." Now every time I meet young people, they often hear that I watched "Ghost Chronicles" when I was 13/14/15/X years old. Oh, he really can't even recognize his old age.

It could be seen that the British woman was a little nervous. Wang Yang pretended to praise Knightley next to him quietly: "This friend of yours dresses very tastefully. I really want to be such a fashionista." Look. Seeing them want to laugh, Wang Yang shrugged and said: "You know, that way I can get rid of those damn expensive new clothes. Old clothes have fashion trends. This is not humorous. You know best how crazy women are when buying clothes. , especially a woman who doesn’t diet.”

"Haha!" The two of them burst into laughter. While being amused, Alishan naturally felt great about being praised by her idol. Could it be that she really has a talent for matching clothes? In her mind, this idea suddenly arose.

In order to keep the atmosphere of the play and the filming progress busy, these relaxed laughters were not often heard on the set of "The Dead". Michael Pitt, who was reading the script over there, glanced at it and secretly sighed: "There are also young people who don't know how to get along. A woman?" He had worked with Knightley for several months on "Silk", but he felt that his friendship with her was not as good as Young, who had worked with her for just a few days.

This was a studio, not a coffee shop. After a few laughs and acknowledgment of Alexa's request to take a photo with her after work, Wang Yang and Knightley started talking about business. After a while, they called Michael over to rehearse the camera movements.

From the first sentence, Knightley listened very carefully, expressing her thoughts and questions from time to time, and then received answers that made her nod her head. She was not convinced by Wang Yang from the beginning. Especially when she thought of Natalie. Sometimes even he gets annoyed when she is "hateful". This appearance is somewhat meant to show this amazing director her abilities, but these days, she has to give her a thumbs up!

Knightley naturally likes those cool people who don't talk or do things like mother-in-law or mother-in-law. It's best not to be bothered by her sometimes intentional and sometimes unintentional sarcasm, and to be able to sarcastically reply to her and make her feel convinced. Magic Yang is undoubtedly such a person! He didn't care whether she was Knightley or some other kind of Knightley. He would praise her if she acted well and criticize her if she acted poorly. His words were very constructive and made her see something she couldn't see. Very interesting and right on the taste.

She understood why Natalie and many actors loved and respected him so much. It was indeed a miracle! She is only 26 years old, but she is more outstanding than all the directors she has worked with, and they are all pleasing to her. Knightley told herself that if there is an opportunity to cooperate in the future. Especially the opportunity for the heroine, she will not miss it, but strives even harder for the role! Because the director on the set is Wang Yang, it is really a pleasure.

With the sound of "n!" The filming started again on the set, and day after day, Keira Knightley bid farewell to the crew in a happy mood, and soon it was Natalie's turn.

"Wow! She's so big. The last time I saw her, she was only as big as a loaf of bread."

The psychiatrist's office set. The photography team was adjusting the camera position, and Wang Yang and Heath Ledger were talking about the scene; while in the rest area, Natalie was holding Ke Ke with a smile on her face, teasing her in a baby voice, and whispering softly Teaching: "Have you forgotten me? Call me aunt, I am Aunt Natalie! Natalie -" The last time Keke saw Natalie was in June, on her birthday. She must have forgotten it a long time ago, but the little angel has never been afraid of strangers at all. She was so amused that she babbling happily, muttering for a while, then suddenly waved her hands and shouted: "NANA, NANA!"

"Oh..." Natalie looked up at Jessica with wide eyes, opened her mouth and took a deep breath, looking like "Oh my God". Wang Yang had long publicized the fact that Keke would call her parents in his circle of close friends, but now that he suddenly heard her speak, Natalie was still shocked.

Jessica smiled proudly, the baby really brings face to the mother! She smiled and said: "Keke still remembers you." Natalie looked down at the little sweetheart with her big round eyes. She was so chubby and cute. She couldn't help but sigh: "I also want to have a baby. How could there be such a cute creature in the world?”

As a result, Natalie discovered more deeply that when she was young, she said that she didn't believe in marriage and had no interest in having children, which were all nonsense. Maybe she often couldn't figure out what she wanted, and she even had a moment of doubt. Will one day suddenly come when she is no longer a vegetarian?

Day by day, with a cry of "CUT! Very good——", the big fat man turned off the camera, and all Natalie's scenes were filmed! There was a round of applause and cheers from everyone in the apartment hallway set, and the performance of the Harvard psychiatrist was obvious to all.

"Yang, I've been on the set with three directors, and the best... of course is you."

After cheering, everyone packed up their photography equipment and waited to call it a day. The two people walking in front were talking while walking. Just now, she had said goodbye to the crew, but she still had a lot to say to him. "I'm definitely not the most fashionable one." Wang Yang stroked his hair, knowing that he was making fun of Wong Kar-wai's sunglasses. Remembering that Wong Kar-wai wore sunglasses when dining, Natalie couldn't help but smile and said: "E! I'll tell it to you. Wong Kar-Wai." Some words still need not be said, she smiled and said: "Hey! It's time for our tradition."

Yang thought about the desert island joke, thought for a while, looked at her face, and said: "'The Da Vinci Code' is very popular this year, and 'Infernal Affairs' also involves religion, so we will be a little more sensitive this time." Na Tali nodded with interest. Wang Yang cleared his throat and whispered to her: "One day, a Chinese, a Jew and a white man were stranded on a desert island because of a passenger ship crash. Then God allowed them to make a request. The white man is very Piously said, dear God, I want to go home! The Chinese casually said, no matter what, I want to go home too. The Jews said..."

Seeing him pause, Natalie answered and asked, "What did you say?" Wang Yang glared and said, "You are a false god, get out!" Natalie burst out laughing, getting louder and louder, and couldn't help but beat her After punching him on the shoulder a few times, Wang Yang couldn't help but grin, shaking his head and laughing.

If there are paparazzi around, they will definitely click the shutter of the camera in their hands. Although everyone now knows that the two are good brothers, many staff behind them have long been accustomed to the closeness of the two, such as the smiling Nancy, from " It was like this on the set of "Juno", and it didn't come calmly.

"What happened in the end?" Natalie finally stopped laughing. Wang Yang frowned and said, "I don't know. It's an open ending. You can do whatever you like." Natalie nodded and said, " Gao Ming." She said seriously: "Yang, as I said before, I hope 'Juno' will appear again." She really felt that she was a little sentimental. It was clear that her aunt was not here, so she spread her hands and said, "I'm just very sentimental." Miss you."

In fact, it is no longer about romance. Natalie really misses the crazy investment that "Juno" brought her, and almost split her personality; the collision of inspirations of acting under his director on the set was exciting. So emotional... that was really great.

"Definitely, I believe there will be a fifth and sixth desert island joke." Before Wang Yang finished speaking, Natalie asked: "Isn't there a seventh one?" Wang Yang patted her head angrily. After a moment, he smiled and said: "There will be! Don't you know you are my muse?" Natalie's eyebrows raised high, Wang Yang immediately said: "Don't get me wrong, Heath Ledger is too My muse." Natalie shrugged indifferently: "What did I misunderstand? Stop being narcissistic."

Yang frowned at her and said, "One day you will thank me on the Oscar stage, 'That guy said I could win an Oscar at the age of 14, thank you!' Don't offend me." Natalie laughed. He was given a middle finger, the first one the cast of "The Dead" had ever received. ! .
