The Best Director

Chapter 99 If I Watch This Movie After Ten Years

Although it is summer vacation, the playground of the high school in the small town is very lively. On the red runway, someone is moving camera equipment, and someone is directing the group performers to move. It is a busy scene. It is the crew of Juno who are in progress. Filming work. (Reading novels)

This is not the first day that Juno was filmed at the school, but at the periphery of the crew's blockade, some local fans and students would stop to watch every day, even fans from other parts of Toronto who heard the news and watched it up close Watch the Queen of Star Wars, watch the magical Yang, and if you are lucky, you can chat for a few words, get autographs and group photos.

Man, I think I saw Jessica Alba... oh, and Rachel McAdams, a white boy exclaimed in surprise on the outside of the cordoned off runway. Another boy of the same age next to him followed his gaze suspiciously, and said: Impossible, they are not the actors of Juno... Oh, my God, I saw it, it is really them, and Tom Wei Lin that stinky guy.

Tom, it's Tom! Several girls not far away exclaimed, all of them had red hearts in their eyes, and a blonde girl said intoxicatedly, Oh, what a surprise, he's so cute, sweet... Another The black-haired girl also said excitedly: We are so lucky. The entertainment news said that High School Musical 2 will come to Toronto for promotion in the next few days. It seems that they are here to visit the set...

Following their gaze, they saw the tall and handsome Tom Welling standing at the very back of the photography team, laughing and talking with Zachary and Michael Pitt; while Jessica and Rachel, who attracted the attention of boys, They all stood behind the camera, watching the shooting in the field with great interest and concern.

Junuo, wait for you, uh... I almost forgot that you don't need me to speak. Wang Yang stopped talking. Natalie, holding her big belly in both hands, urged: So let's start, my amniotic fluid is broken. Hathaway next to her couldn't help but grinned, showing a bright smile. Wang Yang frowned, then nodded and smiled and said, That's a good sentence, it means that this matter is ready and ready to be born at any time, not bad. Natalie blinked and said, You know? My baby just Kicked me, the direction is aimed at you, I think he wants to kick you.

Oh, what mother has what child, it applies now. Wang Yang smiled, looked at Hathaway and asked: Leah, are you okay? Hathaway nodded: Well, no I can handle the problem. Wang Yang turned around and walked back to the camera, smiled at Jessica and Rachel, then turned his gaze back to Natalie in the field, picked up the director's loudspeaker and said: Let's get started, everyone on your marks.

Jessica had a sweet smile on her face, and looked at Wang Yang who was in the working state. She really liked how he was directing on the set. When she heard him call n, she said softly: Cool... Rachel, who was standing next to Jessica, smiled, and when she heard the familiar n, she felt the desire to perform in her body ignited and kept jumping, but it was not her who was performing.

Jessica is also eager to try,

She looked at Natalie with her big belly and pursed her lips. Juno, that was her child. If last year's pregnancy was not an oolong, she would have tried that. Her and Yang's child Zhu Juno has also been born; but now Juno is a movie. Jessica, who is very familiar with the script of Juno, couldn't help admiring the performance of Natalie, who walks like a pregnant woman, looks casual, and has a unique accent...

Can I act? Jessica asked herself, she looked around, then glanced at Rachel, tried to make an expression on her face, and silently recited Natalie's lines. But right away, she realized that she couldn't see it, and she didn't know whether the performance was good or bad. Jessica suddenly noticed that Rachel was looking at her, she smiled unnaturally, and said softly, I just want to try.

Me too, this character is very interesting. Rachel also said in a low voice.

d-Take At this time, Wang Yang clapped his hands vigorously, picked up the loudspeaker and said to the audience: The performances are all very good, but let's try this shot again and try other effects. Juno, try to make your own The mood has become calmer; and Leah, your smile is brighter. He looked at Walley Pfister, who was in charge of the camera, and said, This time, I will shoot some close-up shots.

Seeing the busy crowd again, Jessica and Rachel, who wanted to chat, turned around and walked to the outside. Jessica looked at the blue sky in front of her and said, Rachel, I'm thinking that if I play Juno, I will How should I play it? Rachel glanced at her, smiled slightly with dimples, and said, I can do the role of Leah; but Juno, after seeing Natalie Portman's performance, to be honest , I don't have the confidence to perform better than her. Jessica was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, She's a great performer.

That's one reason; and we are not suitable for Juno. Rachel smiled and said, Jan is right, everyone has their own style and temperament, at least for the time being. She patted Jay Sika's shoulders, encouraging: Jessica, your performance is not bad at all, you don't need to compare with Natalie, don't care about these, you know Jan doesn't care. Thinking of the resolute face on the hospital bed , she smiled and said: What he likes is you, including your performance, he just likes it.

Thank you, Rachel. Jessica smiled at her and said, I don't have any worries about this, I know. She suddenly saw Joshua sitting on a chair in the distance and fell asleep with his head up. Frowning, he said: Rachel, I'll go to Jiangye for a while. After saying that, he ran quickly to Jiangye. Rachel let out a laugh.

Coming to the chair, Jessica looked at her younger brother who was sleeping soundly and drooling from the corner of his mouth. Jessica walked around the chair twice, punched him on the shoulder, and shouted: Joshua Joshua Suddenly woke up from sleep, eyes widened and said: What? He saw clearly that it was Jessica, slumped on the chair, and cursed helplessly: My good sister, you are so boring. I knew it, you came to visit the class It's going to be a disaster.

I'm bored? Ha Joshua Alba, how can you be lazy here? Jessica sneered, pushed him off the chair vigorously, pointed to the side where the filming was done, and said, Go and see if there is any Need help, hurry up

Joshua sat back on the chair again, and said, It's not helpful, I'm not the leading actor, and my main job is to deliver water and food... He closed his eyes, and said, Just let me rest for a while Well, it's okay, and I'm almost exhausted, I'm working from morning to night every day, and I have to keep an eye on Jan for you. Jessica was slightly startled, and then said angrily: Don't do boring things, I Let me tell you, I trust Jan one hundred percent, understand?

Don't worry, I didn't do anything, I just watched, and no one was angry. Joshua slapped his mouth and said, Ahem, it's time to report my results to you. Good news. , and a bad news

Jessica rolled her eyes, and heard him say mysteriously: The bad news first, that nasty woman and Yang get along very well, they often joke with each other, some are very vulgar, it shouldn't be opened by ordinary friends... …” Jessica interjects, “That’s them sparking lines, Jan told me, you want to hear a few of their jokes?”

Joshua shrugged and said: I listen to a lot, and it's not limited to jokes. They often talk about a lot of weird things, about human beings, about nature, oh my god, they all make you want to sleep, the only one The normal one is 'dog', they all like dogs, of course you do too, who doesn't like dogs? So let's forget about this. He stared at Jessica, his voice became deeper and deeper: They occasionally use Chinese Chatting, Wang Yang also taught her to learn Chinese, I don't understand if she is fucking...

Tune your head. Jessica patted his head angrily, but Chinese? She raised an eyebrow, she should learn this, so she can learn more about Jan.

Okay, then let me tell you good news. Joshua rubbed his head in pain and said, That woman doesn't like basketball, and she satirizes basketball fans for 'wasting time'. Yang is a basketball fan, and he said that his philosophy of life is different. ;she's vegan and tried to get Jan to go vegetarian, but where did Jan grow up? He's a ruthless guy and he didn't agree. And crucially, she's not Catholic.

Jessica covered her forehead and said, Of course, she is Jewish. But what does it matter? Joshua spread his hands and said, Because the Holy Mother and the Lord will protect you. After a pause, he muttered softly Said: They only have one choice. He slapped his palm suddenly, and said, Wow, look at what I said, I will do it too. Jessica shook her head and laughed, and said, Joshua, I haven't told you yet. You, Natalie, I put Jan in touch, and I'm happy now, she's doing a great job

What? You're a lunatic. Joshua stood up in surprise, staring and said, You're pushing your boyfriend to someone else. Jessica looked at Wang Yang who was directing with a trumpet in the distance, and smiled slightly , eyes full of seriousness, said: I'm not crazy, I'm very confident in my relationship with Yang. Joshua, you don't have to 'stare' at Yang anymore, go work hard. She patted her brother on the shoulder.

Joshua said OK helplessly, walked towards the camera crew, and shouted, Hey, is anyone thirsty?

After a morning of filming, it was lunchtime at noon when Wang Yang could officially receive the girlfriends and friends who came to visit the set, and have a good chat with them. Looking at Zachary and Tom Welling, he spread his hands and said with a smile Hey guys gave them a big hug, he greeted Rachel with a smile, then hugged Jessica and kissed her on the forehead.

Michael Pitt and Hathaway behind him smiled, and Joshua quickly glanced at Natalie, only to see that she had a Juno-style teasing, which was the hateful version in Young's words, nothing unusual , but he did not let go of his vigilance, this woman's acting skills are too strong.

After getting to know each other, everyone walked to the shaded rest area of ​​the crew, looked at the good friends around them, and Wang Yang said: There is a classroom play in the afternoon, are you interested in making a cameo? You sit in the classroom and do it. A classmate. He knew that Jessica had this in mind, she wanted to appear in his movie, even if it wasn't a role, just a one-second group performance, she wanted to participate.

If it is also beneficial from the perspective of publicity, The protagonists of High School Musical guest starred in Juno will make more young people interested. There are no lines and a few short seconds as the background, which will not destroy the sense of substitution in the movie.

Sure enough, a gleam of joy flashed across Jessica's face when she heard that she could be a guest star; Zachary seemed even more excited, and said happily, Really? That's great. Tom Welling said with a smile: Okay Ah. Rachel was also very happy, and asked: Is this okay? Wang Yang nodded and said, Well, no problem, it's just a background shot, you can't steal the shot. ’ will become even more special.”

Oh? Why? Natalie asked tacitly. Wang Yang looked at her, then at Jessica, Rachel, Zachary and other friends, and said with a smile: Think about it, ten years later, in 2010. If someone comes to watch this movie again, then he will would say, 'Oh, this is crazy, this movie has Natalie Portman, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Alba, Rachel McAdams, Michael Pitt, Tom Welling, Za Kari Levy...they all look young'”

Everyone laughed, and at this time Joshua shouted: Hey, man, you missed it, and Joshua Alba is the best actor at the Oscars. Everyone laughed again, and Wang Yang nodded Said: Yes, and Joshua Alba. Joshua played a small role with lines, the school team's arrogant boy who likes Juno, but expresses it in a mocking way, thanks to the real performance , he did a great job, and the way he mocked Natalie was definitely Oscar-worthy.

You see, a strong lineup. Wang Yang smiled, and suddenly a peaceful face with freckles appeared in front of his eyes. The blonde girl named Annie also participated in this movie. Although she failed in the audition Ya failed, but got a small role that suited her. A few days ago, she came to Toronto in a hurry, and returned to Los Angeles after filming her own scene.

Ten years later, will the name of Anne Darren be in the exclamation of the person watching Juno? Wang Yang thought silently, a little distracted for a while.

Wow, speaking of which, I think it would be great if Juno was a razzie-sweeping movie. Natalie laughed out loud, with a teasing smile on her face. Everyone knew she was joking, and they all smiled. Wang Yang, who came back to his senses, frowned and pretended to think: Isn't it possible? Well, if you win the Golden Acid Award for Worst Actress, beat me up; or make another one, we will hit you Oscar

When everyone laughed and said, there was a shout from a distance: Director and Director Wang Yang looked over there, and saw Jill Thaddeus waving to him, he smiled at everyone, and looked at Jie Sika said, I'll go over there and see what's going on. After that, he ran towards Jill Thaddeus.

Is there something wrong with the hamburger? Joshua muttered worriedly. At this time, Zachary pleaded: Natalie, can you do me a favor? Can you ask Mr. George Lucas for an autograph for me? I am a die-hard fan of Star Wars. Natalie It's like a different person, without the slightest gangster air, with a faint smile on his face, he nodded and said: Well, okay.

In the afternoon shooting, Jessica, Rachel and others successfully completed guest appearances and became members of the Juno cast and crew. In order to get together with Jessica and the progress of the filming was faster than expected, Wang Yang ended the afternoon's filming ahead of schedule. He happily drove Jessica to a nearby town, where he was drunk that day, and they watched the sunset in front of the beautiful lake, He went to a restaurant in the city for dinner and played until very late. He sent Jessica back to the hotel before returning to the town hotel.

In the corridor, Wang Yang opened the door, but found that the room was lit. He walked in suspiciously, and saw a girl with dark brown hair sitting in front of the desk, looking at the book on the desk fascinated. Stunned, he said: Nancy, what are you doing? Nancy over there was startled, turned her head to look over, stood up and said, I'm reading. Wang Yang smiled, went to the kettle to pour A glass of warm water, and said: Of course I know, I mean it's so late, 1 o'clock after 12 o'clock, why are you still reading here?

I'm sorry. Nancy looked at her feet with a little embarrassment, and said: After I finished sorting out the files, I saw the film study book on your desk, and I flipped through it. I saw it now... She looked at the thick stack of books on the desk, and said with a smile, I thought you wouldn't come back tonight.

Wang Yang took a sip of water with a smile, but did not answer the question. What could he say? Could it be true that Jessica came to be a good friend and felt a little uncomfortable and needed a good rest, so she couldn't stay overnight? Seeing that Nancy was still a little embarrassed, he smiled and said, It's nothing. If you want to continue reading, I lent you those books. You can take them back to your room and read slowly, but leave one for me.

Oh, is it possible, really? Nancy's eyes lit up, and seeing Wang Yang nodded, she happily picked up the stack of books in both hands, and there was only one new book left, and she said happily: Thank you, director, I'm leaving then, good night.

Looking at the back of her walking outside with the book in her hand, Wang Yang recalled the embarrassment of her struggling to carry the projector in Park City. Ten years later, in 2010, the person watching Juno was browsing Was he surprised that one of the assistant directors was Nancy Reno?

Wang Yang can't be sure of this, but he can be sure of one thing, that is, ten, twenty, or thirty years later, there will be an excellent female director named Nancy Lino.
