Once Upon a Time In Hollywood

Chapter 130 Items at your fingertips, a course for two

Regardless of whether it is a movie about conscription or an anti-war movie, Roland can count a bunch of them with his fingers.

But if it is limited to after 1995, when Roland was seventeen or eighteen years old, then there is only one.

Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks' Saving Private Ryan.

As the most successful movie reflecting the cruelty and bloodiness of World War II, Roland does not want to recall too many evaluations and achievements, because how much people hate "Shakespeare in Love" means how much they love "Saving Private Ryan".

As for the characters?

Roland didn't even need to think about it before he knew which guy was right for him.

Who else but the rescued hapless Ryan?

Can…

Ryan's age is a problem!

Ryan in the film is the 101st Air Assault Division, that kind of unit would accept a guy of seventeen or eighteen years old?

And talk about a love that moves the world?

For Tom Hanks, this may be a good expectation, because this guy is trying to do this kind of thing, whether it is "Sleepless in Seattle" or "Electronic Love Letter", he is talking about love , but did not move the world.

but-

This kind of book is very close to Roland.

At the beginning of this year, when the truck driver wanted to beat himself up, he said the project in his hands in anger—

"Titanic".

"Tom? At the age you mentioned, if I appeared in a World War II movie, the 101st Air Assault Division, would it be awkward?" Thinking about it, he asked, since Hanks was chatting, Roland also pretended to be chatting.

However, in the face of his inquiry, Hanks, who drank a can of Coke and got up to get another can, opened the refrigerator and said without looking back: "Roland, I think you It is necessary to study history."

"Have you seen the Vietnam War draft in "Forrest Gump"? "I Want You For U.S. Army."

"America's conscription age before the war was 21 to 35 years old, and during the war it was extended to 17 to 50 years old. At that time, in order to enter the army, it was normal to falsely report all kinds of ages, as long as If you can pass the physical examination, no one will block you, and some who have not passed will even commit suicide in anger."

"If it wasn't like this, how could we have more than 10 million soldiers when we had a population of more than 100 million?"

"Besides, it's okay to feel young, why not add a label of recruits to the script."

"Besides, to make this kind of movie, you have to go to military training first. You go to practice for two months, and the image will come out."

When Hanks sat across from Roland again, he felt that age was not a problem and asked curiously, "Don't tell me, have you seen this kind of book? Movies about World War II are really hard to make. If you If you are interested, then let Steven do it together, his father can call the Marine Corps, and they can drag out the detailed information of World War II for you."

"With them around, no one will care about your real age, because they will tell those film critics with gun butts, this is the fact that they have bit by bit in the past, and those guys will absolutely shut up."

The humorous words made Roland grin, and at the same time he shook his head, the topic changed, "Then what do you think the social reaction will be if I fall in love with a guy five years older than me on screen? ?”

Hearing this question, Hanks, who was still playing with the Coke can, blinked his eyes slightly, tilted his head slightly, raised the corners of his mouth, narrowed his eyes, and scanned Roland several times with a curious look, then quietly He got up, squeezed to Roland's side, put his hand on his shoulder, and asked in an inexplicably excited tone, "Oh~~~ Tell me who do you like?"

"The thing about you and Ivanka that the media promoted before, I thought it was hype. Now look at it? Do you really have someone you like?"

"You were born in 1980, five years behind you? Let me think about it, a girl from 1975..."

"Wow, are you talking about the little Voights?"

"The one called... Angelina Jolie?"

That gossip-produced gossip made Roland's hair full of black lines. Just when he spread his hands to express that everything was a hypothesis, Hanks' trembling eyebrows made him smile wryly. Slap your forehead.

"Tom, I mean, there aren't that many actresses my age?"

The slightly questionable words made Hanks snort softly. Seeing that Roland wanted to hide it, the guy put his arms around his arms and put his upper body on the table, "Don't you know, let an actress in her twenties act? Is a girl character the norm in the circle?"

"Oh! I forgot about this!" Roland rolled his eyes.

That's right, pretending to be tender, has never been a "weird look" in the show business circle of a certain country or a certain region.

Emma Thompson in "Sense and Sensibility" is actually thirty-five years old, but she plays the heroine who is nineteen years old.

Barbra Streisand in "Yentel" is 41 years old in real age, but she plays a 16-year-old girl.

Audrey Hepburn in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" is actually 32 years old, but her character is only 18 years old.

As for Xiao Li in "A Game of Cat and Mouse", at the age of 28, he played the role of the 17-year-old Bandit.

Of course you can say that they have good acting skills, but that face is the fact that they eat the book.

Otherwise, even if you put Meryl Streep's acting skills on Ximen Wuhen's body, that instant noodle-headed little Li Feidao still can't get his mouth shut! And no matter how good Xiao Meiniang's acting skills are, who really likes Aunt Liu!

Many people think that Hollywood is professional, but that’s because the movies they produce overseas are all high-quality products after the big waves washed over the sands. For those movies that have been complained about in China, which stupid investors will make publicity?

Even if it is done, it will be stopped by the association, because using bad movies to export culture, what is the difference from slapping yourself?

so-

“It’s not a big deal for you to have an on-screen relationship with a guy five years older than you.”

"I still say the same thing. The so-called audition is based on whether you are suitable for the image of the character in the play. Only if you are OK at first glance, you will have the opportunity to perform. Acting is actually a very general thing. Like a teacher, I will teach you systematically, because those unknown and powerless guys don’t know what their famous works are, and they can’t find the essence that makes them successful, let alone repeat them, so they need to try different ones. role, trial and error."

"And like us, we have the right to change the script. The protagonist of the novel "Forrest Gump" is too bleak and cold. I won't act unless I change it to be a good person—let me ask you, when the investor knows that you are interested in a script now, But if that book doesn’t fit your image, what will you do? I believe you only need to go outside and shout, and the Sixth University will make people work all night tonight, and tomorrow morning, you will find that the six books suit you to change The notebook was lying in front of my house."

"Unless the book is Steven's, no director in Hollywood would say No, because the investors would tell them that if they don't use us, the investment will be cut in half."

"Of course, if it's Steven, is that still a problem? You go to Steven's house and tell him that you like this character, but you have to change it. Do you think he will report you for trespassing, or kick him?" Your **** told you to get out of here with the script?"

"And it doesn't matter even if James has a violent temper. If you take his script, does he really dare to beat you? He has made so many movies, the most annoying thing is that the investors don't give money, and after you take the script , Will the investor refuse to pay?"

When Hanks rested his chin on one hand and looked at Roland with a smile, Roland, who was still looking for the result, directly raised an OK gesture towards the other party—as Hanks said, if Fox knew, the truck driver would When they can use themselves but choose to give up, they will definitely kick the truck driver's **** before the official project is established.

Moreover, the male lead chosen by Fox was Matthew McConaughey, but the truck driver directly changed Jack’s age to a younger one in order to recruit Xiao Li; Not only that, the 40 acres of land that Fox bought for filming, this time there is no need to worry, because a water storage tank was drawn out of the Skywalker Ranch, which is much cheaper than buying land and paying taxes...

Roland admitted that Hanks' idea was quite attractive to him—

Well, in human terms, this is not quite attractive, but epic all the way!

If everything is realized, his acting resume will be:

Home Alone, Terminator 2, Captain Hook, Home Alone 2, Jurassic Park, Forrest Gump, Spider-Man, Titanic, Rescue Private Ryan"…

When the series of movies are all over, his charm value will reach ∞!

With these works in hand, this is no longer more than a certain actor!

Even if God comes, he can’t stop it!

He can kill all his peers in the circle by himself!

By the time-

All the books that suit him will be handed to him, and before he says No, the producer will not look for a second alternative!

because-

‘I love the world! The world loves me! '

Of course, he understands that all of this is a beautiful vision.

But he is willing to work hard to board the unsinkable ship, to become a recruit whose whereabouts are unknown...

Because all of this is the best choice for him!

Because all of these are available at your fingertips!

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now."

"Tom, I accept your suggestion, thank you."

"But I can't screw up the movie right? Step by step, first the good guy tag that Spider-Man needs..."

When Roland put away the topic, pressed down his fantasy, and wanted to get the key to winning the film, Hanks glanced at his watch, smiled and shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I have an appointment for lunch. "

"Let's go together, after the meal, we can start the afternoon activities..."

"Ok, no problem." Hearing this, Roland nodded immediately.

For him, for the next six months, just follow Hanks.

He believes that the whole learning process will be very enjoyable when the other party first emphasizes the essence, and then teaches himself to shape the role - because in many cases, it is not that the students cannot learn, but the teacher is teaching nonsense.

Ouyang Nubuat really wanted to shout out 'Mom has been gone for ten years'?

Didn't the teacher ask her to shout out in the background?

Sitting in the living room for a while, after Hanks finished changing, Roland followed him and climbed into the low-key Toyota SUV.

Putting on the peaked cap, he tapped the handlebars of the car with his right hand disorderly. Just as he was thinking about where Hanks was going to invite someone to eat at noon, the car slid left and turned, and stopped at the entrance of the mansion on the other side of Malibu. .

Take out the phone, dial a number, and after three beeps, Hanks closes the flip.

While Roland was looking around, the sound of dull footsteps, from far to near, entered his ears.

Following the direction of the sound, an old woman with blond curly hair, round-frame gold-rimmed glasses, a dark blue floral dress, and a white handbag appeared in his sight.

In this situation, the corners of Roland's mouth in the car twitched, "You actually asked a lady out for dinner?"

"Yeah, what's the problem?"

Hitting the car horn, Hanks asked with a smile, "Can't you see who she is?"

"Who is she? How do I know?" Roland raised his brows, feeling that Hanks was joking, "I only know that you dated an old lady, and you certainly didn't tell your wife when you dated her... "

"Oh, you are right, I did not tell Rita..." Hanks nodded.

But he continued: "But when you meet her, you don't need to tell Rita at all!"

While speaking, he opened the car door and got out of the car.

Under Roland's gaze, Hanks opened his arms and hugged the old woman who walked out of the villa tightly.

Of course, hugging is not the point. What surprised Roland the most was that the two kissed together!

The kind of openness, look, Roland has a very headache.

what does this mean?

Have an affair in front of the students before class?

If this is teaching the content of "liberating nature", then the special code is too liberating, right?

After sweeping his eyes twice, Roland, who was speechless, stroked his forehead with one hand, and turned his eyes, too lazy to see how Hanks was flirting with an old woman; It suddenly struck.

Turning around, the two guys actually came to the window of the co-pilot.

Looking at the gesture of pulling down the window, Roland pressed the button.

With the lowering of the window glass, the two standing side by side are clearly discernible.

"Roland, don't you recognize me?"

Just as Roland was thinking about how to speak, a familiar male voice came from the old woman's mouth.

Hearing these words, Roland, who was still fooling around, almost jumped up!

Grab the grass! Is this special code turned out to be a shemale?

But in the next second, the old woman with a male voice took off her glasses.

When the unadorned face appeared in front of Roland, his head froze and his eyes widened, "Fuck!!??? You turned out to be Robin???"

Robin Williams, who was identified, slapped the car door with a smile, and after seeing the surprise on Roland's face, Hanks held the roof of the car and said, "Yeah, it's Robin I'm dating. "

"Welcome to Tom Hanks' acting teaching class, our first class is—"

"Whether it's a good guy, a bad guy or a hero, it's very easy to be them."

Note: ① "Gay Company" mentioned the conscription environment during World War II, and "Captain America" ​​also reflects the same problem. As long as the medical examination passes, everything will be fine. As for the role of Vin Diesel, Spielberg added it specially for him. Again, the movie is very good, but they will always bring related customers when they do things. ② The hero of the big boat was first selected by Fox as Matthew McConaughey. The truck driver thought he was too old. As for Xiao Li, Fox thought he was just a child. At the age of 10, he has no other difference except his height, and he does not meet the identity of the painter in the script at all, and Fox thinks that it is crazy to put this idol drama that should exist on campus on a sunken ship, so the truck driver is very flamboyant Bao changed the age of Jack in the script. As for the prototype of Rousi in the movie, it is a fifty-three-year-old woman in reality, but who wants to watch old men and old ladies fall in love? The more handsome and younger, the more impactful it is when you die. As for the filming process, the documentary said that they were a 100-day crew. Starting in 1995, Fox bought land and dug a pit, which took 100 days, and then it took 100 days to build the ship on the spot, configuring equipment and other things, so it was done. It will be delayed until 1996, but for visual effects, 17 teams work together to catch up with the progress. ③ It is too common for actresses to act tender, besides, Europeans and Americans are precocious. ④ Hanks really likes sweets. He blew himself up. Because he also likes sweets, he developed diabetes.
