Chapter 17 Shooting End

How do you get closer to someone you just met? There may be many ways, but having common interests and talking about topics that interest her is undoubtedly a good idea.

"Yes, I have been learning dance since I was three years old, and I still perform in the troupe. Even now, I often participate in community troupe performances, and I often participate in drama camps during the holidays." Under Ryan's unmarked guidance. The topic of the two quickly shifted to performance. When they talked about the experience during the performance, Natalie's eyes sparkled and she inadvertently raised her chin.

"Which dance or performance do you prefer?" Ryan asked.

"Acting!" Natalie gave this answer without thinking, and then asked back, "Ryan, are you also interested in acting?"

Ryan shrugged, but did not answer immediately, he and Natalie were In the corner of the living room, and on the sofa on the other side, Nicole was chatting with the Hushler couple, and it was actually quite interesting to see these people who did not meet in their previous lives together.

"Hey, Ryan, what should I ask you?" Natalie wrinkled her nose in dissatisfaction.

Speaking of which, this guy who is only one year older than her is quite interesting. He is much better than those little brats at school and neighbors. Not only is he not naive, but he is mature like a little adult, especially when the two of them talk about it. He was always able to get to the point of the topic, and most of the things that were provoked were of interest to her.

It's just a little bad, he seems to have a hard time concentrating, and his mind wanders frequently.

"Ah?" Ryan scratched his head, "What?"

"Are you also interested in acting?" Natalie gritted her teeth and raised her pointed chin proudly, "Looking like you, you have no experience in acting. "

You can see that too?" Ryan rolled his eyes deliberately.

"Of course?" Natalie seemed to be at odds with him.

"Actually, I'm participating in the shooting of a movie, otherwise how can I come to the East Coast from Los Angeles!" Ryan said lightly, as if it was no big deal.

"Film? Shooting?" Natalie's eyes gradually widened, and then she showed a suspicious look, "Come on, Ryan, I'm not an idiot, you can't lie to me." "It's true, if you don't believe me, ask Nicole is alright." Ryan pointed to the center of the living room, "Do you know that? Miss Nicole Kidman, a famous Australian movie star, starred in the "Across the Horizon" that is being shown in North America. You just need to make a phone call. Ask the theater to know if it's true or not." Naturally, Natalie wouldn't be so boring, but after hearing what Ryan said, she gradually believed 70% in her heart, but she was still not convinced, after all, everyone who watched her performance said that She's a genius, what's the point of being compared by a peer of the same age, "Isn't it because of Nicole's relationship that you played a little character who didn't even have a line in it?" "Oh, Nat, what are you saying ? It's too shocking." Ryan put on a look of injury. "Hmph~" Ryan and Nicole didn't stay for too long, and they said goodbye before dinner. Although he and Natalie had a lot of verbal confrontations, they had a good time talking, especially when they didn't know it. In the meantime, Natalie was told a lot by him. This girl was just like what he had seen in his previous life. Because she was too smart and precocious, she was not popular among her peers and had few friends. With just a little trick, Ryan asked for her phone number and mailing address, and made it clear that there was no winner on the topic of art today, and that he would write to her when he returned to Los Angeles. , must refute her. Children of this age are the most competitive, and Natalie will naturally not be convinced, and also said that she will show him a good look in the letter. It was the first time that Nicole saw someone of her age who could talk to Ryan. Nicole was a little happy. You must know that although she never mentioned it, she was always worried. Ryan didn't associate himself with his peers. Growing up is not good, and this girl named Natalie, she has also observed, is indeed very smart. Could it be that smart kids only associate with smart kids? It was an idea that came to Nicole inadvertently after returning to Philadelphia.

The trip to New York made Ryan keep hidden in the bottom of his heart, and some things that emerged because of this shooting, re-pressed into the darkest and deepest part of his heart.

After meeting Natalie and talking to her on the phone before leaving New York, Ryan began to work hard to get rid of the bad state where he often couldn't distinguish between fantasy and reality. Since he already exists in this world, why bother. Everything in the previous life, if it continues like this, maybe one day he will split his personality and become a mental patient. After entering mid-November, the film began to wrap up. Ryan followed the crew, and sometimes went to the streets, sometimes entered the church, sometimes became a problem student, and even performed on stage in the movie. King Arthur and the Sword in the Stone. Probably after more than a month of experience, Ryan's state has stabilized a lot, and the problem of difficulty in acting has been solved to a considerable extent. At least there will be no more situations where he can't get out of the scene and ask Nicole to come to help. , and his perfect interpretation has almost been unanimously praised by David Fincher and Al Pacino. "David, now you won't complain about the actors I chose." During the filming interval, Harvey Weinstein and David Fincher had some exchanges. Mr. Fatty still remembers David Fincher. Of those complaints, the actress is too beautiful as a vase, and the little boy he has not seen, maybe it will be a disaster for this movie. "But now I'm going to say, Miss Nicole Kidman is too pretty, of course, she's just as good at acting as she looks, and as for Ryan, I'd love to ask you, Harvey, where did you get it? With such a **** coming out, I believe that after this film is released, everyone will compare him to Jodie Foster!" David Fincher let out a sigh of relief; he suddenly felt that this film could become. His work must be the favor of the goddess of luck.

Patting David Fincher's arm, Harvey Weinstein walked to the other side, during which time he had carefully read all of Ryan's books, even though they were full of children's Interesting stories. but without a doubt, very exciting, and to be precise, these should be classified as all-age novels, and most importantly, these stories are extremely suitable for adaptation into film.

He even felt that when the boy was writing these stories, he had already thought about what to do in the future!

This is a gold mine! No, it is a treasure island with countless treasures!

Ryan stretched a long, lazy waist. If it was an ordinary child, after such boring filming and work, he would have been exhausted and yawned all day long.

Similarly, Ryan was also a little tired, but he felt that his seemingly thin body was much stronger than expected.

There were several night shots, all of which exceeded midnight, but after a night's rest, he would be refreshed and full of energy the next day.

This situation has emerged in recent years. Otherwise, where would he have had so much energy to plagiarize so many works.

"...She asked me to tell you that she went to see you dancing!" The mother in the driver's seat turned her head in disbelief. but the boy's emotional and slightly hoarse voice did not stop, "Grandma said to you When I was little, I fought with her, just before the dance performance..."

Following the boy's speech, the mother slowly covered her mouth, and at some point, tears filled her eyes, and she finally couldn't help crying. up.

The boy looked at her, "Grandma's answer is...every day!"

Looking at the crying mother, the boy asked, "What did you ask her then?" The

sobbing mother tried her best to suppress her excitement, her hands unconsciously. Putting it on the chest, "I... did I make her proud!"

The boy's lips twitched as if he was talking about his mother, and it seemed he was talking about Nicole. The two in the car couldn't hold back their excitement anymore, and hugged tightly together, full of deep affection. every corner of the car.

"Great!" David Fincher clenched his fist hard, then subconsciously touched his slightly panto theic nose, and suddenly felt that after today's filming was over, he should call his parents.

Others are not much better than Mr. Director. A few emotional people are even quietly wiping their tears. This group of shots is so perfect and so touching, but no one applauds because the siblings are still close. hug tightly together.

"Nicole!" Ryan used all his strength to hold the woman who cared for him with all his heart, "I love you! You are the best person in the world for me!"

"I love you too, Ryan! "Ni Ke rubbed the back of the boy's head vigorously until the light brown hair became a bird's nest, still reluctant to let go.

This is the last shot of Ryan and Nicole, and although the film is still a short distance away from filming, after that, they can leave Philadelphia and head back to Los Angeles.

It's impossible not to go back. St. John's Primary School has called several times, saying that Ryan's time off is too long. If he can't go back to school before December, he can only repeat the grade in the new school year, even if he goes back now, there is another quiz waiting for him.

Of course, none of this would be in Ryan's eyes. The test for this age group was just child's play.

That night, the crew held a small party as a farewell to the two of them. Compared with the somewhat glamorous and arrogant Nicole Kidman, Ryan was more popular on the crew, although he would occasionally make trouble. He also likes to tease people, but almost everyone recognizes him.

Especially Al Pacino, who was teased the most by boys, but had the best relationship with Ryan. When he left, he especially gave him an amethyst lucky stone.
