King of Hollywood

Chapter 28 Thanksgiving

Because Dennis had worked in a cafe for a year, he knew the work of the waiter better than anyone else, so he gave Adrian an idea to let him explain the work of the waiter to Kate in detail. Anyway, the waiter in the cafe is not much different from the waiter in the bar. He has long had objections to Adrian’s casual filming of the waiter’s work, but Adrian is the boss, and no matter how much he has an opinion, he will be rotten. Stomach, until now I found a chance to say it.

In short, it is to redesign the scene of the bar, and Dennis will find a way to embody the required emotions at work, and then teach them to Kate. After thinking about it, Adrian agreed to the proposal with a tentative attitude.

Facts have proved that this proposal is very effective. Although Kate still had to NG a few times afterwards and in the next two or three days, it was much better than at the beginning. Adrian was relieved because of this. The supporting actress mainly has three scenes, the bar, the home and the restaurant. As long as Kate maintains the current state, I believe it can be completed after this week.

It's just that Adrian, who was immersed in the shooting, overlooked some things. Fortunately, Adrian reminded him.

I think you should go and see Kate, Ed, she doesn't seem to be in a good mood these two days. On the third night when the filming started again, Dennis found Adrian who was packing up after the end.

Adrian was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he had gotten angry with Kate a lot in the past two days—well, it wasn't really angry, but repeatedly expressing his dissatisfaction was a big blow to Kate. After all, she is only 17 years old, and it is her lover who keeps denying her.

Thank you, Dan, I'll go right away. Adrian nodded to express his gratitude. He knew that there must be other people who saw it. Several of the crew members had worked with him in London. Yes He also has a general understanding of the relationship with Kate. It's just that Dennis is the only one who can come to remind him now. As for why, it goes without saying.

After putting the objects in his hands aside, Adrian got up and left, and after walking a few steps, he turned back: By the way, Dan, to express your gratitude, you can use some meat tonight, but not too much and pray the best. Fortunately, the filming is over this week or something.”

Dennis was stunned for two or three seconds, then quickly ran into the crowd with a cheer. Adrian shook his head with a dumbfounded smile. The nutritious meals during this period probably tortured him enough. Shaking his head, he withdrew his thoughts and walked quickly inside. Today was filming a scene at the supporting actress's home, so he quickly found Kate in the kitchen of the rented house. At this time, she was holding a plastic bottle of pure water and staring blankly from the kitchen window as it was about to sink into the water. Street scene at night.

Angry? Adrian asked softly, leaning against the door.

It took several seconds before Kate turned her head around and shook her head with a wry smile.

What's the matter? Adrian walked over strangely and hugged her from behind.

I'm so stupid, I can't help much, always NG and NG, and I have to... let Dan teach me how to act... I thought I had seen my parents perform, and I have a little stage experience, and I was still in the theater before. You played a small role in a movie, this time it won't be too bad anyway, but... Kate lowered her head and sighed deeply.

Adrian laughed at this time, and he leaned over and kissed her on the back of the neck: Fool, everyone never knows how to act, you see, I seem to be a genius, and it took me less Making a small movie for $1 million and then making tens of millions at the box office, but it’s all forced—you remember how hard I was in the editing room in London?”

I know, but... Kate wanted to say something, but was immediately interrupted by Adrian: Don't worry, my dear, if you don't work once, you can do it a few times. There will always be success after such repeated training The same is true for me. Without the accumulation of watching movies and reading books, I would not be able to make the movie Two Smoking Barrels. The key is that you have to understand why you failed, and don't always think about how many times you failed. And tell yourself that you will definitely succeed next time. Look, haven’t your NG times decreased a lot in the past two days?”

Kate turned her head and saw that Adrian's eyes were still bright, but there seemed to be something flickering in them.

Adrian smiled slightly, lowered his head and touched her lips lightly, then stretched out his hand and squeezed her chin: Look, you have been made ugly by makeup, if you become more ugly because you are unhappy Ugly, that would be too bad.

Kate finally burst out laughing, waved her hand and punched him lightly on the chest: You didn't want to make up like this!

Okay, okay, if you think my words hurt you, then I apologize, Adrian said with a little exaggeration in his tone, but he quickly said: Honestly, Kate, you cut your hair short It looks more pure and beautiful after dyeing black.

You like it? Then I'll keep it like this in the future. The smile returned to Kate's face again.

After a few words of laughter, she showed a serious expression again: To be honest, Ed, I suddenly have some... want to apply to the California Institute of the Arts after graduation next year.

Really? Adrian was slightly surprised. He knew that Kate had majored in literature at Oxford for two years, and then dropped out because of her film career. As for whether it was worth it, only she knew at that time.

Have you really made up your mind, Kate? You have at least half a year to think about it. Besides, don't you want to go to Oxford? He looked at her and asked seriously.

I had already thought about it when I was on vacation. The experience of the past few days has confirmed this. I do still lack systematic knowledge in acting. As for Oxford, it is really better than doing what I like. It's nothing. Kate gave an affirmative answer, then wrapped her arms around Adrian's neck and leaned over, spraying her breath on his face close at hand.

I want to stay by your side, Ed, I want to see you when I wake up in the morning, not on the other side of the Atlantic trying to figure out when you'll call. Kate murmured holding his face.

Adrian didn't say anything, just lowered his head and kissed her lips.

In the next five or six days, the shooting was still bumpy, and in the end it couldn't be completed before Thanksgiving. Even if Adrian released the water intentionally or unintentionally, he couldn't be so strict with some of Kate's shots.

Even so, Adrian didn't take it too seriously. Kate doesn't have many roles. Simply put, the boyfriend of the barmaid she plays is a drug dealer who partnered with the policeman played by Joe Pantoliano to deal drugs. After a certain business, Joe wanted to steal 200,000 stolen money, so he used Dennis, who suffered from short-term amnesia, to kill the guy-he had helped Dennis find the guy who raped his wife before, and Dennis also killed the rapist, but Because of the short-term amnesia, Dennis forgot that he had taken revenge, and was still tirelessly looking for the rapist, and Joe, who was familiar with this, took advantage of it.

In short, Dennis discovered Joe's problem after killing the drug dealer, so he changed into the drug dealer's clothes, took his car, took a photo of Joe and wrote it as untrustworthy. Later, for various reasons, Dennis drove to the bar where Kate worked, and was mistaken by Kate for her boyfriend because of some minor conflicts. Later, Kate discovered his short-term amnesia and took him home out of sympathy, but then there were conflicts again.

Later, the departed Kate was beaten by another drug dealer her boyfriend cooperated with, and Dennis, who had forgotten everything due to short-term amnesia, felt sympathy for her and decided to help her deal with the other drug dealer. Later, due to various factors, Dennis and Joe settled the drug dealer together. In order to repay him, Kate helped him find out the owner of the car he was looking for, and the owner of the car was Joe who played the policeman. Tricked to the place where the drug dealer who was killed in the first place - that is, Kate's boyfriend - and killed the policeman. It's a pity that a new cycle will start because of this.

As I said before, Kate's scenes are basically confined to indoors, bars, homes, and restaurants. It is okay to spend some effort on lighting and camera switching, etc., and ask for a little more relaxation. In addition, Dennis' scenes have been filmed in sevens and eighties in the previous three weeks, so it's not a big deal to wait until after Thanksgiving. More importantly, Kate came to Los Angeles with great difficulty. How could Adrian let her leave so easily? It is a good idea to spend a Thanksgiving in a two-person world.

Hey, don't run so fast, Kate, you are like a lively little rabbit. Walking on the wide street, Adrian said with a smile looking at Kate, who was bouncing and looking very lively in front of him. After a decent Thanksgiving night at home yesterday over Mrs. Galen's turkey, today he and she walked around Los Angeles.

Are you saying I look like it? Kate shook the bunny puppet next to her cheek. It was bought at a flea market. Although the workmanship is not as elegant as those in boutiques, it is very cute.

I just want to say, I'm still carrying something. Adrian raised the bag in his hand and shook it. After walking around the flea market for a few hours, Kate bought a lot of things, and these were naturally held by the man. .

Could it be that such a little thing makes your legs hurt? You're a man, Ed. Kate stuck out her tongue playfully.

Hey, I just mentioned, don't you need to rise to a certain height? Adrian's tone was helpless.

Okay, okay, Kate walked back calmly, and took his arm affectionately, Then, let's go eat something, Ed? I'm a little hungry.

Is it here? Adrian looked around, and there was a small restaurant not far away that looked okay, but it seemed to be far from... Forget it, leave after eating, nothing will happen.

(Okay, please ask for a recommendation ticket, thank you~)
