Vol 3 Chapter 78: Song and dance

> Chapter 78 Songs and Dances
Yes, Adrian started filming his new movie "Moulin Rouge" in February 2001, so he let Nicole begin training in dancing and singing early, so he will send the script To Buzz? Ruman, and invited him over to discuss in the UK, these are for the smooth start of today's shooting. WwW. NgWeNXuE. M
Of course, the preparatory work is much more than that. As a song and dance film, it still tells what happened in the Moulin Rouge, which is still famous in Paris. Although the movie only borrowed a name, the preparation work should not be at all. less. At that time, the clothing, the environment, and the stage at the time were all restored one by one. For this reason, Adrian let people fully restore the interior scenes of the Moulin Rouge in the studio.
Fortunately, this is a song and dance film that does not require too many external locations. Occasionally there are one or two places that can also be made with cg, so you don't even need to do field shooting, because there are too many materials in Paris and the Moulin Rouge.
In addition, the actors must also be trained. After all, song and dance films are not Broadway stage shows, and they require much higher acting skills, so it is impossible for stage actors to perform movies. However, high requirements for acting skills mean low requirements for dance skills. Movies can use editing, conversion lenses, and montages to show the actors' dance skills, instead of acting like a stage actor. You can't make a mistake after jumping from beginning to end.
Even the actors in front of the camera provoked the dance to be more vivid and infectious, and it also gave people a versatile feeling, so the song and dance film was very popular. But times are changing, audiences ’tastes are changing, filming techniques are also changing, and song and dance films are inevitably declining. In recent years, they have not even been seen at awards ceremonies. The only thing that remains unchanged is that I want to use Award-winning song and dance films, the actors must dance and sing in person.
This is why Adrian wanted Nicole to practice for one year. He had used Audrey as long as he persuaded Naomi to do the same exercises as Nicole. Hepburn's "My Lady" is an example. This film should have been nominated by Audrey for another best actress, but the problem is that the dance and almost doubles are also included, and the songs are also sung by others. Therefore, the Film Academy did not nominate her for this reason.
Even earlier in "Tiffany's Breakfast", many people said that it was precisely because the theme song of those minutes was sung by others, that was why Audrey passed the second Golden Man.
Since Adrian decided to use the Moulin Rouge to hold Nicole up, he must do his best, and these aspects are the key to not to lose. Of course, other people don't have to work so hard. It is enough for them to prepare and practice for two or three months. This is not a stage play after all.
"This is not a stage play after all, and you don't need to complete the dance every time. In this way, both the actor and the crew will be overwhelmed." After trial shooting several shots, Adrian said to the associate director.
Although he "plagiarized" many movies and accumulated enough experience, he directed his song and dance film for the first time, so he found a pretty good stage director as an assistant. But this name is Aubrey? Although the director of Sherpa directed the stage play is good, but the movie has never been tried, it is inevitable that the style of the stage play is also handled in the details of the movie, which makes Adrian quite depressed. I knew that Sam should be so? Mendes came to be his assistant.
This is indeed a good idea. Although Mendes got his reputation as the best director of "American Beauty", although he became famous, he did not mess up with the influx of invitations. Not only was he careful when choosing the script, but also occasionally received by some theater companies. The guest came to the stage director. In addition, his best Oscar director is also regarded as Adrian's support, if the miracle director asked him to be his deputy, he would certainly not quit.
However, Mendes now has a good reputation. Although he can attract some attention as an assistant, it will inevitably be pointed at by some speculative guys after the movie is released. Besides, not all stage shows need to sing and dance. It ’s not clear whether he can be a good assistant. It ’s fair to say that Chaba ’s performance is quite satisfactory. Adrian is not a faceless person. So just think about it.
"Well, guys, let's do it again, everyone will go all out!" Adrian screamed, clapping his hands, and then told the three starring actors one by one.
"Ivan, look back at how you felt during the second shot, that was the best."
"Richard, you have to show a little gentlemanliness. Although this duke is a bastard, he is at least a duke on the surface."
"Nicole, I have only one request. Although you have done a good job, I hope you do better!"
Currently filming is Sha Ting ’s first appearance in the Moulin Rouge. The crowds sang and danced to show her beauty and perfection, and then because the Duke fell in love with Sha Ting, she wanted to know her. The inconsistencies and misunderstandings made Sha Ting mistakenly believe that Christian, who had come to gather in style, was the Duke, and thus opened the prelude to the entire story.
Adrian basically uses the "original class". Nicole plays Sha Ting. Needless to say, Christian's role is still played by Ivan? McGregor served, and some people changed their destiny because of the butterfly effect, while others always followed the established trajectory. McGregor still played Obi-Wan in "Star Wars Prequel", so he successfully entered In Hollywood, Adrian would simply ask him to play the leading role.
By the same token, is the Duke still Australian actor Richard? Lausberg starred in this, and there was another interesting thing. When he was preparing, Adrian was unable to find the name of the Duke actor in his memory, so he wanted to make Gary? Oldman came to try, but when he was asked to test him privately without hitting his own signboard, Oldman refused without hesitation.
"Duke? Stop joking, where do I look like a duke, or a duke who sings and dances," he said.
This is very consistent with Oldman's personality. Although this guy is an Englishman, he always sniffs gentlemanliness and hates academic performance. This is why Adrian neither touched his own sign nor made it too clear when he was contacted. If the other party agreed only because the person he invited was his, then it is easy to ignore the degree of fit between the character and himself. -McGregor is like this. When I heard that it was a movie directed by Miracle Director, I agreed to it without asking what kind of movie it was.
Since Oldman made such a statement, and Adrian later remembered the name of the original actor, the role of the Duke eventually fell to Lausberg.
"No problem, Ed, I will do my best." McGregor first stated after Adrian's advice.
"Then I try to interpret the duke's heart with facial expressions, and use the body language to express the duke's manner, how about it?" Rausberg asked after thinking about it.
Only Nicole, who walked aside to do her own warm-up exercise before dancing, didn't walk back until she had arranged everything and shrugged her shoulders to indicate that she could start.
But she still couldn't help asking: "Are you sure that song and dance movies will be popular?"
"Of course." Adrian laughed. "I'm not quite sure how I made such a movie? Don't worry, sweetie."
Speaking in a low voice, he suddenly put his hands under the fur with a thunderbolt and pinched her hips to get Nicole's big, angry eyes.
Indeed, since the mid-to-late 1990s, basically no song and dance films can be seen at the major awards. After everything bottoms out, there will be a rebound, even if it is very small, so it is time to turn to song and dance films. Besides, "Moulin Rouge" is nothing new as a song and dance film. In short, this is the story of a traditional Hollywood "backstage song and dance film". The so-called "backstage song and dance film" refers to performing a song and dance show on a real stage, plus Backstage love stories were popular genre movies in the 1930s and 1940s.
This love story is simple and old-fashioned. The actress or prostitute and genius fall in love after encountering each other, and then kills the evil duke who wants to rob this woman. After a series of ordeals, the actress finally chooses a genius. Although the evil duke Furious to stop, but eventually fell to the ground and was cast aside by everyone.
Of course, the script of "Moulin Rouge" is not without new ideas, at least the hero and the protagonist did not end up together at all. Although they got rid of the evil duke, the heroine quickly died of tuberculosis, and then left the hero to write their story as a script. But this did not help much for the whole story. Most of the plots were arranged according to the typical routine of backstage song and dance films.
However, this is exactly what Adrian said before. He said that he has no experience in directing song and dance films, so this piece of work that is basically a routine is suitable for him. And song and dance films do not necessarily require new ideas. As long as you work the content you want to express, you can also get a lot of applause. For example, "Moulin Rouge" puts out the decadent, extravagant and carnival scenes in the Moulin Rouge as much as possible. In front of the audience, guide them forward by creating a utopian atmosphere, and then use collage and fragmented montages to show the love story between the male and female protagonists, as well as the saturation of the color blocks and the comic-style performance. Freely changing camera viewpoints to add a bit of "post-modern" narrative features, and use another way to break through the standards and stereotypes of traditional song and dance films in terms of performance.
Therefore, Adrian only needs to give the singing and dancing part to the assistant director Shaba, and then make fine adjustments and repairs in accordance with the memories in the past.
"I never knew ... you can still direct a song and dance ..." Nicole gasped.
"If you let me see through me, am I still me?" Adrian Haha smiled and kept changing the rhythm. If this kind of question is to be asked, Nicole should have asked it when she got the script. She now This is just to distract her and not let herself tremble so much under the huge stimulus, because a thick crowd outside is dancing and dancing in the sound of music.
Since Adrian said that he would try to invade her behind the curtain, of course it should be said to do it. As for security issues, oh don't worry, most of the crew know or guess his relationship with Nicole, and He deliberately let some smart people see before pulling her in, so I believe no one would come to disturb him.
"Don't worry, there will still be singing and dancing outside for some time, in the meantime they won't hear your groan, Nicole." Adrian bit her girl's ear beads, and there was a non-stop moment below.
There are some fragmentary dance clips being filmed outside, and there is nothing about the three main characters. It is enough to leave it to the associate director, so he can grab Nicole in the costume and run here.
"You bastard." In a heavy gasp, Nicole, listening to the singing and music outside, pinched his legs around Adrian's waist tighter.
The same words, different people say, the effect will naturally be different.
The title "Director Miracle directed a song and dance film?" The title was published in the Los Angeles Times and caused a lot of waves. Everyone knows that the energetic Adrian has started making new movies. This kind of thing is low-key, He can't hide much time in the entertainment industry. Who makes him a miracle director? Staring at him more.
But most people don't know what kind of film Adrian is going to make, so when the media disclosed it, all kinds of surprises sounded. Is it normal to Woody? Allen's "Everyone Says I Love You" is a watershed. After the 95's, there was almost no place for song and dance films in the movie market. Now Adrian actually wants to make a song and dance film. It should be said that the miracle director is too Is it big? Or does he have the confidence that ordinary people cannot match? Not to mention he has never directed this type of film before.
So, how can people in the circle not hold various discussions? But it is interesting that most of the topics focus on the former aspect, and the latter topic, which should be a big attack point, is not mentioned by many people. In fact, it is not surprising to think about it carefully. Adrian has produced so many movies before. There are plots, science fiction, cult films, and black comedies. This year, two themes with the same theme were shot in completely different styles. So it is not difficult for him to make a song and dance film.
Because of this, people's discussions focus on how much Adrian can do, and how likely it is to be general.
"The director of miracles always seems to come up with some amazing ideas. According to him, he can always put these ideas into reality and get a lot of applause. Now he aims at a brand-new movie type that has not been tried before. I am looking forward to what he can finally achieve. "Someone wrote in the forum of imdb website.
Basically, unless it ’s someone who is particularly stubborn and opposed from the beginning, no one is full when making predictions like
not good
and very short answer. He was slapped hard by Adrian. The Englishman said he couldn't make British-style "Howard Manor", but what happened? Some people say that it is impossible for him to make three films a year to guarantee the quality. As a result? Someone said he couldn't make a movie like Kubrick. What happened? After having such an example, I don't know how to face the same situation, it must be a natural stupid person.
However, compared to discussing what the miracle director is thinking about and why the new movie is a song and dance type, some things are undoubtedly faster, yes, gossip, Adrian and Nicole's gossip.
As early as when Nicole and Cruise divorced, there were a lot of gossips about her and Adrian, especially Nicole's large-scale performance in The Eyes Wide Open, and the director was Adrian. But at that time the divorce case itself looked better than these scandals, and Adrian's Playboy name was not so well known to the public at the time, plus he and many women had scandals at that time, so there are many such speculations Did not cause much response.
But with the development of time, such speculations did not disappear, but spread more and more widely. After the release of "Mulholland Road", it caused a lot of discussions. Fortunately, Naomi was more dazzling at that time. Coupled with the title of the seventh miracle girl, so this discussion is not too intense.
It's different now. Although the public doesn't know the weight of his title, the seven wonder girls before and after are enough to explain some problems, not to mention the rumors circulating in Hollywood. Listen, the quickest way to fame is to comfortably serve the Miracle Director in bed! Obviously, any actress who has acted as a heroine in a film he directed is more than 90% likely to have with him.
Nicole now? Kidman is the only heroine in Adrian's new movie ~ EbookFREE.me ~ and has also had a gossip before, the name of the eighth wonder girl is definitely on her head. Previously, this name was originally worn by reporters on Natalie's head, but it was not mentioned for a series of reasons, but Nicole could not escape.
More importantly, I don't know which guy on the Internet actually took a screenshot of Nicole and the Navy officer's passionate play for dozens of seconds in the "Big Eyes Open" to observe and analyze, and then came to the conclusion. The naval officer is most likely Adrian himself. This immediately burst the spirit of gossip of countless people, and everyone expressed their opinions on this, and refuted it, but in general, most of them agreed with it.
Although these tens of seconds of shots are very well handled, the naval officer does not even have a slightly angled side, only the ears and the back of the head, or else the top of the head, but the general guy just takes screenshots from Adrian's guest appearances in other movies For comparison, and someone deliberately took the time to search through various authoritative movie websites, and found that the cast of "Eyes of the Eyes" did not have the name of this naval officer actor, and this statement was immediately confirmed, so in the network It was lively.
I have to say that netizens are both and powerful.
