"Why do you think so?"
"You are him and I know you are him. Tell me you are him!"
behind the camera.
At this point in the performance, Simon raised his head and gestured to everyone: "Card."
Everyone pause.
Simon leaned in front of the open car, gave De Niro a no problem look, and said to Janet: "Jenny, for the line 'Tell me, you are him', I hope to see your excitement. A tense feeling that suppresses the madness inside."
Janet paused, looked at the rearview mirror, changed her mood slightly, and repeated the lines just now: "Tell me, you are him!"
"It's not close," Simon shook his head, thought for a while, and said, "Hold your breath, hold your breath when you say this."
Janet took a breath, looked at the rearview mirror again, and repeated again: "Tell me, you are him!"
"Don't take deep breaths ahead of time, so that the emotions are disconnected. Be natural, don't take this as a show. Remember, you are Esmeralda, some crazy and dangerous taxi driver. Then, suddenly When you met a boxer who just killed his opponent with bare hands, the evil in your heart was aroused, and you became very curious about the feeling after killing someone, so you asked Butch, "Simon lowered his voice slightly. He described it in a bewitching voice for a moment, feeling that Janet was gradually blending into certain emotions, and finally raised his finger to De Niro in the back seat, and said, "Look, Ace, he is the murderer."
Having said that, Simon stepped back behind the camera again.
"Everyone is ready."
"Pulp Fiction, episode 26, fourth."
"Action!"
In the carriage, De Niro, who was sprayed with 'sweat' again, began to tear the gloves on his hands again.
Behind the crowd, Catherine watched the scene quietly.
Still failed the fourth time, Simon stepped forward again, patiently instructing Janet on how to perform, and occasionally imitating a woman's voice without hesitation to demonstrate Esmeralda's speaking style to Janet himself.
then.
The fifth time, the sixth time, the seventh time, the eighth time...
Simon kept yelling 'CUT', and at the same time pointed out to Janet again and again without any impatience, completely without the mania of other directors after many mistakes.Janet also made adjustments according to Simon's request time and time again without any resistance, appearing extremely obedient.
It's just that this obedience has unwittingly added a hint of madness.
After nearly two hours like this, Catherine also watched quietly for two hours.At a certain moment, Catherine suddenly felt that these two people were about to go crazy.
The group of shots that started shooting at one o'clock in the afternoon was still boringly repeated until after get off work.Feeling the devotion of a certain couple of men and women, none of them proposed to leave work.
Until seven o'clock in the evening.
The projection on the big screen lights up again, and the car model starts running at the same time.
inside the carriage.
Perhaps due to exhaustion, the originally fluffy brown hair of the woman sitting in the driver's seat seemed listless, and the soft hanging hair also added a bit of coquettish and lazy atmosphere to the woman. Her eyes were still bright, with Curious, the whole person is like a dangerous cat that may pounce on its prey at any time.
at this time.
Everyone in the venue felt that this was Esmeralda, a female taxi driver with the same name as the heroine of "Notre Dame de Paris".
Coquettish, charming, with an accent, soft voice, but suppressed a kind of danger and madness that may erupt at any time, as if a sharp knife is about to be pulled out in a blink of an eye, and stabbed several times in a living person. A blood-splattered hole.
in the lens.
The woman lifted her chin slightly, and her eyes were not sharp, but the state of being fully integrated into the role gave her a mysterious attraction, even faintly overwhelming the two-time Oscar winner sitting in the back row.
"..."
"..."
"So, Esmeralda, what do you want to know?"
"I wonder what it's like to kill someone?"
"I can't tell you. If you don't tell me, I don't know he died, so how can I tell you how I feel. Anyway, I don't feel guilty at all."
"..."
No.30 One performance is over.
The projection is still playing, the model is still running, and the two people in the car are all immersed in the characters. Although they are silent, they each maintain their own state.
After a while.
Simon finally looked up and said loudly, "Good."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and finally got off work.
Everyone began to quickly clean up the scene. Robert De Niro got out of the car, took the towel handed by the staff, wiped his body, and sprayed 'sweat' repeatedly. His boxer shorts were soaked at this time.Turning his head inadvertently, De Niro noticed that Janet was still sitting in the car, not moving at all.
Soon, everyone noticed Janet's strangeness, and Simon stepped forward immediately.
Chapter 117 The Second Change of Hands
Feeling the car door being pulled open, Janet, who was propped on the steering wheel, turned her head slowly. She lost the look she had during the performance just now, and her tone of voice could not be corrected for a while. She looked at Simon with bright eyes, and her voice was still soft and waxy. :",you are bullying me."
Simon looked at Janet's appearance, and immediately regretted it. The repeated shooting for six hours was obviously a very exhausting thing, and the woman had no acting experience. Anyone.
Reaching out to lift Janet out of the driver's seat, before Simon could say anything, the woman rubbed her cheek against his arm a few times, as if she had found the right position, she opened her small mouth and bit her.
Simon was only wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt, and the touch of the woman's teeth really shocked him.
After a while, feeling that Janet was just holding a piece of his own flesh in her mouth, and apparently still kept her rationality and didn't bite down too hard, Simon relaxed.
just.
The scene suddenly became a little awkward.
The rest of the crew, who thought something happened just now, gathered around. Looking at the situation in front of them, most of them showed half-smile expressions.
Simon felt the two rows of small teeth tightly clenched on his bicep, but continued to hold the woman in his arms, directing everyone to stop work as if nothing had happened, and then ordered Jennifer to let Neil Bennett drive the car over,
After such a toss, Simon finally left the studio with Janet in his arms, and got into her Range Rover directly at the door.
Neil Bennett escorted the two into the car, Catherine also opened the door and got into the co-pilot, turned to look at the two people in the back seat, and said, "Simon, are you really okay?"
Simon lifted his right arm lightly, and Janet's little head moved accordingly, and said to Catherine with a wry smile, "Look, it's very hard," and then lowered his head and coaxed, "Baby, it's not delicious. , go home and cook it before biting, okay?"
"Well……"
Listening to Simon's words, Catherine rolled her eyes lightly, and felt relieved when she saw Janet whimpering and entangled the man again.Just as he was about to get out of the car, Neil Bennett had already started the car.
She didn't plan to go back to Palisades with Simon. Catherine was about to tell Neil to stop the car, when Simon's voice came from the back row: "Go to our place. It's been a long time since we got together. Let's have dinner together."
It seems that since "Blood Corpse Night" was finished, she hasn't gotten along with him too much.Catherine also misses the situation when the three of them cooked dinner together and went to the carnival last Halloween.
Hearing what Simon said, he didn't dare to look back.
She glanced back through the rearview mirror and caught his eager eyes before she sat down.
The Range Rover pulled out of the North Gate of Fox Studios and quickly turned onto Santa Monica Boulevard.
Just after Simon opened his mouth to keep Catherine, Janet's teeth tightened in his arms.He stretched out his hand and gently scratched the woman's waist a few times. After she twisted her body and loosened her teeth, Simon said to Catherine again: "Speaking of which, how is the box office of "Blood Corpse Night"?"
Today is July 7th, Thursday.
"Night of the Blood" is in its sixth week of release.
Thinking of Simon's character who is used to controlling everything in his bones, it is impossible not to know the box office of the film.Knowing that he was actively looking for a topic, Catherine still said: "The cumulative box office last weekend has reached 3219 million US dollars, and there should be 3600 million US dollars before the next file." Saying this, she raised her eyes again and glanced at the rearview mirror, saying : "I haven't thanked you properly yet."
The participation of the men in the back row not only brought the quality of "Blood Corpse Night" to a higher level.Moreover, it is precisely because of the success of "Run Lola Run" and "Butterfly Effect" that this film has gained such high attention and box office.
Thinking in her heart, Catherine inexplicably regretted it.
Last Christmas.
perhaps.
Really should take this man to San Francisco.
Glancing at the rearview mirror again, looking at Janet who was curled up in his arms like a kitten, she couldn't help feeling a little self-pity, she was such a failed woman.
The car quickly returned to the mansion in Palisades.
Although her tone of voice still could not be changed, Janet regained some energy after arriving home.
It was seven thirty, and the sky had already darkened.
The three of them prepared dinner together in the kitchen, watched TV and chatted together after the meal, so that after nine o'clock, Catherine wanted to say goodbye and leave, but was stayed overnight by Janet.
Simon was naturally driven to other bedrooms.
In the master bedroom of the villa, the two women took a shower and changed their pajamas. Janet pulled Catherine and sat on the big bed together, holding an atlas and showing the woman: "This is here, Tasmania , Simon and I plan to buy the whole place. Kate, guess how big it is?"
Catherine listened to Janet's tone of voice, which still failed to turn back, looked at Tasmania, which was still very conspicuous even compared with the Australian mainland, and said, "This is bigger than many small countries, how can you buy it?" come down?"
"Land in Tasmania is very cheap. We have recently bought a 1300-acre farm. The total area of this island is 1690 million acres. As long as we persist, one day it will completely belong to us."
Catherine imagined the huge gap between 1690 million acres and 1300 acres, and shook her head, "I don't know where all your crazy ideas come from."
Janet glanced at Catherine very dissatisfied: "This is not my crazy idea, this is my dream."
"Okay, dream," Catherine said with a smile, "and then?"
Janet blinked, wondering: "What then?"
Catherine pulled out the pillow behind her and hugged her in her arms, saying, "I mean, even if you can buy this island, what then?"
Janet turned her head around for a while, raised her chin, and said, "As long as the dream comes true, there is no need for it. What's more, there must be a lot of things after that, and it will definitely be very interesting. What about a big island?" .”
Catherine did not argue with Janet, but instead said, "Are you planning to speak in this tone all the time?"
Janet put down the atlas, raised her hand and rubbed her face, hummed a few times, and spoke again after a while: "How are you doing now?"
Catherine shook her head: "It's still weird."
Janet said indifferently: "Then don't change it, I like it anyway."
After all, she had been busy all day and chatted casually for a while. Janet soon became sleepy, Catherine turned off the light, and the two women lay down together.
in the dark.
After being quiet for a while, Janet snuggled over: "Kate, I'm used to hugging her to sleep."
Catherine felt that Janet's little paws were touching her waist, and it felt a little weird. She stretched out her hand to hold her to prevent her from moving, and said angrily, "Then you go find him, what are you doing with your arms around me?"
"Hehe," Janet simply leaned her whole body over and hugged Catherine carelessly, and said, "It's the same for you."
same?
How could it be the same?
Why is it the same?
A series of chaotic thoughts flashed through Catherine's mind, and she gradually relaxed when she felt that Janet had nothing else to do.
seem.
In this way, it feels good.
So he slowly stretched out his hand and put it on Janet carefully.
She thought she would fall asleep like this, but after only a moment, Janet said again: "Kate, you probably haven't slept yet?"
Catherine had some bad premonitions: "Huh?"
Janet said, "Shall we call him over?"
call over?
What are you calling for?
doing what!
How does this work!
Snapped--
"Ah, it hurts so much."
"Stop talking nonsense, or I will leave."
"Hmm," Janet seemed to curl her lips, and said, "I made a big decision just now, Kate, don't blame me for not giving you a chance."
Catherine raised her hand again.
Janet hurriedly begged for mercy: "Okay, okay, I won't talk anymore, go to bed."
