This movie does not have a big scene, strictly speaking, it is a scene between three or four people, the boy, and the doctor, the boy and the mother, the doctor and the wife, and David Fincher also grasped the theme very well. , Thriller is just a coat, communication and affection are what the movie wants to express.
Although under the strict requirements of David Fincher, the shooting speed is not fast, it is also not slow, especially as time goes on, whether it is Al Pacino or Nicole Kidman The better it is, as for Ryan, he has encountered a lot of trouble, and he has been out of the show for longer and longer.
"Cut!"
After David Fincher called to stop, Ryan was still sitting in the high-back chair, unable to recover, as if the whole world had abandoned him, and he could only hide in his world to seek comfort and protection.
It's not the first time this has happened. Al Pacino and the staff have tried to step up to help him before, but as soon as they get close to Ryan, he's like Cole who saw the ghost in the script. In that way, become fearful, shrink, and panicky.
Whenever this happens, only Nicole Kidman can approach him normally, and only her embrace can provide him with warmth and help.
It took several minutes for Ryan to wake up, leaning hard on the high-back chair, and letting out a long sigh of relief. They all said that the actor can be retracted freely, but what about him? You can only put it but not take it back, what's going on? Especially when he was immersed in Cole's world, the extremely dark memories of his previous life as a child would always occupy his mind.
"Ryan, you need to rest." David Fincher solemnly suggested.
"No, David." Ryan shook his head resolutely, "I'm at my best now, please believe me?"
David Fincher persuaded a few more words, and saw Ryan's firm attitude. I had to sit back in the director's chair and start the deployment. The shot below is one of the most important shots in this movie.
The faint light reflected on the corridor, and with the light click, the door was opened to a gap, and the boy in shorts and shorts stuck his head out of the gap, his pale face was full of hesitation, he was a little scared, After looking back and forth for a while, I finally made up my mind and rushed into the toilet with a twist.
Suddenly, the boy felt that something was passing behind him, turned around slowly and terrified, and just stood in front of the toilet, looking so lonely and helpless.
After hesitating for a while, the boy decided to go and take a look. He walked slowly, the hesitation on his face had turned into unease, and the sound of the kitchen utensils was heard in the kitchen. He thought his mother was making breakfast and felt a little more at ease.
Walking into the brightly lit kitchen, the boy asked tentatively, "Mom?"
The woman in pink pajamas turned sharply and said in a low and sharp voice, "No! Dinner is not ready yet. , what do you think?"
Her face was covered with bruised scars, and with a hysterical look, she looked very scared, she roared and stretched out her hands in anger, with deep knife marks on her wrists. "You Can't hurt me anymore, Lanny! You made me this way!"
The boy couldn't bear this terrifying scene anymore; he turned around suddenly and ran back to his bedroom desperately. However, the hysterical roar of the female ghost continued to come, and the boy didn't even think about it; he got into the room. In the red tent, facing the statues of the Virgin Mary and Jesus, collected from the church, tears of helplessness and despair flowed down in the repressed weeping.
"Cut!"
Everyone, including David Fincher, breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't expect this important set of scenes to pass in one go. That boy is so outstanding. Combined with his performance over the past month. They don't know how to describe him other than the word genius.
However, in the red tent, they had ignored, Ryan was still sitting on the ground motionless; the look of loneliness, helplessness, and despair not only did not disappear. but became more and more serious, and the pair of bright sky-blue eyes gradually disappeared. Glorious, tears poured out like a flood that burst a levee.
The little boy with black hair and black eyes was unusually thin. The clothes he was wearing were not only shabby but also had a lot of patches. The black schoolbag he was carrying was also shabby, and it was so heavy that it almost bent his spine.
He pushed open the door to the classroom with force. Several classmates were playing games near the door. There was a very unfriendly light in their eyes, and then they left in a hurry. As he walked towards the seat, he did not know who brought His head; many people in the classroom shouted in unison, "Fool! Beggar! Fool! Beggar!" The
the little boy bit his lower lip so hard that he didn't even notice the blood dripping out, his body trembled uncontrollably. Tears rolled in his eyes, but he stubbornly refused to fall.
"Fool! Beggar!" The
the shouting grew louder and louder; he couldn't bear it any longer, took off the black schoolbag he was carrying, and slammed it on the head of the male classmate who was closest to him, one, two... …
"You are a troublemaker who will only cause trouble for us. Can't they bear it when they scold you? Look at you, what kind of people are you? You are all wild children thrown away by your parents, why? I'm wrong. , you dare to stare at me, I'll make you stare..."
The head of the orphanage slapped the boy on the body, biting the boy's lips even tighter, but there were no tears in his eyes.
"Ryan!" David Fincher shouted, seeing that Ryan not only did not respond, but a trace of blood oozed out of his lips, and the pair of bright sapphire-like eyes were gradually losing their luster, and he hurriedly shouted. Said, "Quick! Go and find Miss Kidman."
Nicole was removing her makeup, and she didn't even wear shoes, so she rushed over barefoot, ignoring everything around her, and rushed directly into Ryan's tent. , and hugged him tightly into his arms.
"Ryan! Ryan! Wake up!"
Ryan opened his eyes blankly as if he only had this body left. Nicole's heart trembled uncontrollably. She felt that the boy was The coldness is not on the body, but the soul. The Ryan she is familiar with, the Ryan she loves deeply; the Ryan she depends on, is getting farther and farther away from her; and it seems that it may disappear at any time.
"No~ Ryan! Come back quickly!"
Nicole Kidman pressed her forehead against Ryan's forehead, trying to use her body temperature to warm the boy's gradually cold soul, and to use an affectionate call to bring back the most important person in her life.
"Damn! I knew it, I knew it, you shouldn't be making this damn movie! Ryan, I swear! If you don't wake up, I'll send you to a mail school, or a catholic school! God and Satan swear at the same time! I swear, I will personally demolish the orphanage that made you fall into pain and darkness, and I will send that sow black pig to Alcatraz!"
Nicole's eyes gradually showed panic; she was hysterical and didn't know what she was talking about. Fortunately, there were no black people on the crew, otherwise, she would get into big trouble.
Looking at Ryan's clenched lips and the blood dripping from the corners of his mouth, Nicole couldn't control herself any longer; her blue eyes flashed twice, and two bean-sized tears rolled down.
Tears swept across her white cheeks, absorbed her breath, and dripped on the corners of Ryan's cheeks and mouths with feelings that had penetrated his soul, and fell into his heart that was gradually occupied by cold and darkness.
The character of the young man is extremely stubborn, like the short black hair standing on his head. He watched the beautiful girl go farther and farther. The person who once gave him warmth and light for ten years has finally disappeared from his world forever. Among them, from that moment on, dark clouds covered the sun, and darkness replaced the light.
The time came to that night again, the drunk, smelly, numb young man like a piece of deadwood, opened another bottle of beer, and when he raised it, he was about to pour it into his throat. Suddenly, two drops of liquid fell from the sky and landed on the ground. his face.
"Why are you so familiar? This kind of breath, this kind of feeling..." The young man finally remembered something, his hand loosened, and the wine bottle shattered on the ground, "A Xin? No! This is Nicole!"
"A Xin? Nicole!" Hearing that Ryan in his arms finally made a voice. Nicole said quickly, "Ryan, I'm here! I'm right by your side, I'm not going anywhere!"
Ryan's eyes blinked, and the dazzling eyes gradually regained their brilliance, and the sky-blue eyes became brighter and brighter. Nicole could feel that the familiar Ryan was back, but... but she had one. An indescribable feeling, Ryan seemed to be a little different.
"I'm sorry, Nicole, for worrying you." Ryan hugged her tightly as if only this embrace in the world could make him feel warm and peaceful.
"Ryan, if...if you can, don't scare me like this again, okay?" Nicole panted softly, and she hasn't calmed down until now.
"Don't worry, Nicole, I just remembered a lot of dark memories."
"Then... Who is An Xin?" After all, after living together for several years, Nicole also understands some Chinese.
"An...A Xin?" Ryan was indeed a genius in acting, and his surprised expression was completely natural at this time, "What I'm talking about is - An Xin, Nicole!"
He deliberately slowed down, using one word in Chinese. He said it again and again so that Nicole could hear it.
"Nicole, I think Ryan needs to rest!" David Fincher came over at this time, "You don't have much footage left, I'll give you a few days of vacation and take Ryan to play around. , he is a little too involved in the play."
Too deep into the play? Ryan sighed, he couldn't tell whether he was too deep into the play or fell into a dream.
"Okay then." Nicole agreed and looked at the boy in her arms, "Where do you want to go, Ryan?"
"New York!" Without even thinking about it, Ryan gave this subconsciously. Answer.
