Chapter 458 Sudden Violence

"What kind of feeling is right?"

Again, Zhou Le still didn't feel right. The shot was good, but he always felt that something was wrong. It could be better, and the picture could be more shocking.

The distance between excellence and nitpicking is actually not very far. Zhou Le was almost paranoid and took five consecutive shots. People around began to complain, and the time for Tianliang subway station to start operation was getting closer Todd stopped Zhou Le: "Zhou, can you tell me what is wrong with you?"

Zhou Le's professional attitude is recognized by everyone. This complaint is not tired and repeated over and over again, but a little worry that he doesn't want to see the picture.

There are many roles like clowns in the history of Hollywood movies. All kinds of successful movies with similar themes, 100% will have wonderful villains in them. When filming "The Dark Knight", director Nolan was worried that Zhou Le would sink into the role If it is too deep, there will be problems. Many successful similar characters will have mental troubles, or they will not be able to get out, or they will have an impact on their lives. The most troublesome thing is the mental illness caused by the inability to get out. The pursuit is life-threatening.

At this moment, Zhou Le's state made Todd feel very bad. He was worried that there would be problems with the other party. Some experienced staff members of the crew also had similar worries.

"Many actions of the clown cannot be thought of with normal thinking, otherwise there would be no plot of dancing after the murder. Then his first resistance, we always felt that he resolutely pulled the trigger was fierce. Is it more meaningful? How about the imagery?"

He was answering others, and he was also answering himself. A flash of inspiration flashed through his mind, and he almost missed it. He closed his eyes and tried hard to think, but there was still no answer.

Seeing his appearance, Todd was even more worried.

"Why do you need to look for it? If you find it, don't you still have to learn it?" When this question needs to be answered by himself, Zhou Le still hasn't found the answer. Looking at the time, he decides not to look for it anymore, so he does it again. , maybe just this time.

Rearranging and doing it all over again, the actors suffered the most, especially the two who were directly killed. They maintained a very good professionalism and always maintained a close to full attitude. As professional actors, how much they value their remuneration As well as the state of finishing work early, they never valued it. Like Zhou Le, they paid more attention to the quality and the result of the performance.If they can improve their acting skills during the performance, they are willing even if they are tired. Not everyone has the opportunity to learn from top actors. They cherish this opportunity very much, and at the same time they are also testing themselves. performance has improved.

Fortunately, the restarts over and over again started when Arthur was beaten, and there was no need to repeat all the previous scenes.

Crouching on the ground and being beaten, Zhou Le came into contact with the icy subway. Through the gap, he watched the scene of the subway whizzing by outside the window. The flashes of light passed by quickly, and his eyes widened suddenly. He found the A feeling—a sharp feeling.

Suddenly!It was as sudden as the light seen in the window!

Yes, this is the sharpness that I want. The feeling of making everything presented to the audience is sudden. The action is not as fast as an angry shot, but sharp and sharp. The overall picture highlights that everything appears suddenly without any warning. People who saw it had a feeling of being startled but felt right.

Nothing has changed, it is still the same procedure as the script, the same performance, but in Todd's eyes, everything is different. He stood up suddenly, and he was on the other side of the car outside the camera, staring at Zhou Le's eyes widened, this, yes, that's the feeling, it's countless times better than before.

One is running, the other is posing to chase, Arthur stood up from the ground, and the other is grinning. Obviously, he has never experienced such an explosion, and he is not used to the use of his body's explosive power. As for pulling the trigger to kill people, it is completely out of his scope. Inside.This grin proved that Arthur was just an ordinary person, and before his heart transformed, his body was just an ordinary person.

"Card!"

Todd took the lead in applauding: "Okay, that's great!"

Before the car stops at the next stop, adjust the camera position and shoot the few seconds of the chase.

The filmed material is placed there, and then look at it, the same picture, the same plot, the same shooting method, and almost the same shooting method, but the picture is completely different, and the people present are all understanding, and the sudden sudden feeling is very strong , so that the whole violent murder plot has a completely different viewing experience.

Hours of persistence paid off. Everyone had smiles on their faces. The dawn came quietly, adding some warmth to the smiles.

Todd smiled happily, while Zhou Le invited everyone to enjoy breakfast together. No one was sleepy, and they were all talking about the scene. The same plot and the same pattern of development, no close-up performance, no change in the development of the whole story, but creating Out of a completely different feeling.

From this scene, Zhou Le has entered a state of madness. Once the camera is turned on, he will be a clown immediately, with every move and gesture. Because the protagonist is the absolute core of the camera, it looks better than "The Dark Knight". It is more graphic and gives people the feeling that only he does this action and you will find it appropriate, and anyone else who shows the same action will give people a feeling of awkwardness.

The way of speeding up the steps with sudden small steps is a natural performance of Zhou Le during the filming process, which has become his unique way of walking.

The first dance in the bathroom after coming out of the subway station, no one designed this part, and Todd’s previously prepared sub-shots were also discarded, and a public toilet was built, allowing Zhou Le to perform by himself, and the shooting had to match his Acting, don't interrupt him to shoot.

Todd clearly told Zhou Le, you come by yourself, the way of dancing, and even the music you want, the soundtrack in the later stage, the brightness of the surrounding light, whatever you want will be given to you, the whole feeling depends on your own feeling Come, we want your finished condition.

Before, I just got the weapon to dance at home and accidentally pulled the trigger. After this sudden feeling, Zhou Le has a new understanding of the clown's dance in the whole movie. There was a discussion with Todd about reshoots.

This wake-up dance in the public toilet, in a dark environment, Zhou Le filmed this scene for three consecutive days. Every time when everyone felt that it was good enough, he chose to re-shoot, every few times , will present a performance that everyone thinks is better.

He was immersed in it, and the crew was also immersed in it.

They filmed two or three scenes in one day. Just for this scene, the whole filming progress stopped. Everyone thought it should be done. The whole dance scene was the most important part of the whole plot. They believed that with Zhou Le's strength, , once you find the feeling, you will definitely come up with a performance that will amaze everyone.

Scattered filming of the plot, ordinary actors and staff, it is difficult to get a glimpse of the content of the whole movie, and it is impossible to have a pertinent evaluation of the movie before it is released.

"Joker" is different. Many people are very confident. Although it was defined from the very beginning as a commercial film rather than a literary film, the staff at the scene also felt that this would be a very exciting movie. A single-line plot without enough characters and stories to support it, the clown and Zhou Le alone are enough to support an excellent movie.This is his one-man show. How good is it that a movie without any large-scale action scenes can make everyone recognize that it must be excellent in the future?
According to Todd, with Zhou Le's current state, let alone three or five days, he is even willing to spend a month to let Zhou Le find the dance in the play that he thinks is the best state. The level of the entire movie has been sublimated accordingly.

A few days later, when the country urged him several times, Zhou Le was still immersed in the role. He himself felt that returning to China to participate in the promotion and premiere of "Wolf Warrior 2" would be a buffer, perhaps because his nerves were tense. It will relax, and there may be unexpected effects.

"Director, I want to do a scene of the stairs, the plane at night, I think that scene is the heaviest scene, and it is also a link between the past and the future, as a node for the complete transformation of the whole clown. Before going back, I will try and find out I feel that I can adjust myself according to the performance during the time I go back.”

It can be said that the entire production crew was 'used' to Zhou Le, and Todd agreed to his request without hesitation. In the selected block, on a sunny morning, the clearing gave him a completely open performance space.

Standing on the steps, Zhou Le, who had put on makeup, felt that today was very different, no longer in a closed room, but under the sun...

This feeling was so comfortable, the first thing Zhou Le did was open his arms to embrace the sun.

This is an unreal scene, but apart from the undyed hair, clown makeup and red suits are on, and there are still some people around who want to watch the fun, except for the obstruction of the staff. About "Joker" Many people know about this movie. After "The Dark Knight", everyone felt that even Zhou Le might never challenge this role again in his life. Level roles are difficult.

The "Joker" project was launched, and Zhou Le participated in it. Movie fans in the North American market and even the world are looking forward to it. They look forward to Zhou Le's ability to subvert his own good performance, but they are very worried, worried that a role that has ascended to the throne will end here fall.
