Chapter 61: Juno


Chapter 61 "Juno"
"The third movie of Miracle Young, the mysterious work" Juno ""
The latest edition of the "Los Angeles Times" entertainment edition published such a message, and then in a day, everyone who is concerned about the movie's dynamics, Wang Yang's fans and fans know this, he will make a movie again
"The Los Angeles Times" said in the report: "When we thought that the Magic Yang will rest for a year or a few years before re-directing, he suddenly announced his new work plan" Junuo ", according to the flame film, This is a campus drama about a 16-year-old high school girl. Besides that, they did not disclose more content, but according to the shooting speed of a campus movie, maybe we can see this early next year Movie. "
"I personally look forward to seeing whether this movie will set off a school craze again; but at the same time, I am very worried that Miracle will be a movie for half a year at such an amazing speed that he is still the writer of" High School Musical 2 "" June " Is it a masterpiece? Will Miracle Young continue to be magical? "The editor of the Los Angeles Times finally said:" His first two films have proved themselves in question; and this time, I believe many people are very Looking forward, I hope he will not let us down "
Indeed, fans of the movie fans expressed their expectations one after another. They did not stop at the official website of Flame Movies and asked Flame to reveal more movie information. "Juno"? From the name alone, I can't see at all what the plot content is. However, Wang Yang and Flame Movie did not agree to their request. With his current popularity, the new work maintained a sense of mystery, and the attention and expectation it caused will only increase.
This strategy has worked. Many fans are discussing in various forums. Campus drama, what kind of plot will it be? Most people tend to think that the plot should be a girl ’s love story. It is speculated in the style of "High School Musical" that it will be very romantic or touching; some people think that "Junuo" will be a relaxed and funny movie. The plot is how she treats it. The school made a mess.
In addition to discussing the plot, they also discussed who will star in "Junuo"? The most popular voice is Jessica. She and Wang Yang are couples in love, and now that she is so popular, there is a tendency to become the most popular heroine in campus movies. Is n’t she acting? It is said that there are not many people who starred in Rachel. Her popularity is also very high. She and Wang Yang have collaborated twice. Of course, they are all two of the two works. The fans think that the third part, they will Continued cooperation.
But many people disagree, because Jessica and Rachel both have to shoot "High School Musical 2", which will conflict with "Juneau" in time. So who is the heroine of Juno? Everyone has different speculations, and almost all the young female stars in Hollywood have been said.
"Father, mother ..." A chubby baby in a cute pink suit sat on the floor with two black eyes rolling round, full of curiosity. Wang Yang and Jessica squatted in front of them, both with happy smiles on their faces, clapping hands together authentically: "Juno, come here, come here, father and mother." The baby moved and she tried to crawl towards them on the floor go with.
But she climbed and climbed, but she couldn't climb, and the distance hasn't changed. How could this be? Wang Yang could n’t help but realize that something was wrong, his head suddenly flicked, and he opened his eyes to the snow-white ceiling. When he looked out the window, it was already early in the morning, and it turned out to be a dream
Wang Yang sat up with his eyes wiped out, and took a long breath. If Jessica was really pregnant, the picture in the dream just now would be true ... he recalled the "Juneau" in the dream. It looks vague, just remembering the baby's clear eyes, a bit like Jessica and a bit like himself. Wang Yang smiled suddenly and self-deprecatingly. He was suffering from "want to be a father" syndrome.
People's psychology is really strange. Before they are mentally prepared, they are afraid, confused, and escaping; but when you are really determined and ready, you suddenly say no, but your heart is empty.
"Interesting" Wang Yang shouted and got up to start the day.
It's been almost a week since the "Pregnancy Oolong Event", and Wang Yang has also ended his vacation. He devotes most of his time to work and writes the script of "Junuo"; while the script of "High School Musical 2", As early as the "summer vacation" in the past night, he wrote a little every day, and he has almost completed it. "High School Musical 2" will not be a resort plot, and the story continues to happen in Eastern High School.
The story of "Junuo" is probably about a 16-year-old high school student named Juno. She is a very "different" girl, with sharp teeth, sharp curses, ghost elves ... One day, this unique girl A decision was made, and she always liked it, a humble, "cool" boy, Poly, from the school track and field team tasted the taste of the forbidden fruit, and she became pregnant.
Juno, who had an accidental pregnancy, discussed with her friend Leah, and wanted to have an abortion at first, but after some psychological changes, she decided to give birth to the child and began looking for adoptive parents for the child. Juno told his father and stepmother about the pregnancy. They did not blame Juno too much, but gave her warm support to prepare for the arrival of the child.
At the same time, accompanied by his father, Juno determined the child ’s adoptive family, which was a wealthy, elegant couple. But as Juno ’s birth period was getting closer and closer, the long-standing contradiction of the children ’s prospective parents finally broke out. They were about to divorce. Juno was very painful, but he finally faced with an optimistic and positive attitude, tell The mother of the adoptive parents "You continue, I will continue."
Then Juno gave birth to a child, and the adopted mother, Vanessa, wept with joy, and Juno returned to normal life and "fall in love after giving birth" to Poly.
This is the story of the original "Junuo", but Wang Yang did not intend to be like this. If it was before "Pregnant Oolong", he would not have any special feelings about this story; but now, he does not like the story All. Because he does n’t think that Juno ’s failure to abort, giving birth to a child, or adopting a parent is a kind of salvation, a victory; after this oolong with Jessica, he felt a lot and gave the child to others? Or a divorced single mother? He felt that this was disrespect for the children. This was not a victory. This was not cool. This was an escape.
It's like saying "I'm still young, I can't take care of it, I have no ability, you are an adult, you come." Then the child was sent away, the whole person loosened and returned to normal life. This is not cool, not cool at all, what is cool? Juno and Poly really take on their responsibilities and raise their children together. No matter what difficulties or difficulties are ahead, a family will face it together.
On the other hand, Wang Yang feels that the actor Paul is like a vase in the movie, useless, and Paul is just a coward, from beginning to end; and he is not like a normal person, he has no idea at all, this role is like Same as purely redundant.
Perhaps this is because the focus of the original story is on the interaction between Juno and the adopted couple, but what Wang Yang wants to shoot is her interaction with Poly. He wants to shoot the changes in the mentality of these two young people. To be born, and then to support themselves; Poly from irresponsible at the beginning, to slowly reflect, and then want to take responsibility. When Juno and Pauli played the guitar in front of the house, and the baby was sleeping peacefully in the cradle, this was a victory.
If the original theme of Juno is "respect for life, tolerance and understanding of family, etc."; in addition to these, he also wants to discuss "responsibility. Young people and young people face sudden changes, face The different views of the people around me, the change of mentality along the way, and finally the courage and the courage to take responsibility. "This is the movie he wants to make.
Therefore, in order to highlight this theme, the content of the movie will add more campus plots and life plots, while greatly reducing the interaction between Juno and the adopted couple.
The plot of campus and life revolves around "change" and "face". The original version of "Junuo" is very simple in this respect, and even avoids it; but Wang Yang is to write this content. He wants to strengthen Juno's hardships and the strange treatment she has suffered. Of course, she will face it with a very optimistic attitude, and she will show it in a sunny and interesting way when shooting.
Wang Yang will also strengthen the lead role of Pauli. Pregnancy is a matter for both men and women. Pauli can no longer be like a wooden man. He wants to become a man.
Of course, the focus of the story is Juno. This movie needs Juno ’s charm, her sharp teeth, ghost spirits, and love. Because only under her charm, the serious and heavy theme of "girl pregnancy", will have sunshine, relaxed feeling, and youthful atmosphere.
Therefore, the performance of the heroine of "Junuo" is very, very important. It is no exaggeration to say that she is often "showing" in the movie.
What about "Junuo"? In appearance, she should be like a 16-year-old high school student, not too tall, and a little more immature; in temperament, she must have the feeling of being smart and ghost spirit.
These are just basic requirements, the most important thing is that she will perform this is different from the simple performance of "High School Musical", Juno's speaking tone, expression posture, even walking pace posture, have high requirements, it can be said that The performance of the character must be integrated between raising hands and looking at the basic requirements before. She must be young, which requires a talented actress.
In fact, no one can be more suitable than Allen Page, but she is only 12 years old, and it is obviously impossible to star. So, who will "Junuo" be?
Jessica was the first person to know that Wang Yang was going to shoot Juno. At that time, she asked Wang Yang, is she suitable for acting? Whether it ’s a teenage pregnancy story or wanting to continue making movies with Wang Yang, she desperately wants to play "Juno." Wang Yang pretended to think for a long time before shaking her head to deny her. The first reason was that Jessica was too tall and too sweet to look like a clever little girl.
The second more important reason is that with her current acting skills, it is impossible to perform Juno. On the other hand, even if you have to let Jessica go to the show, there is no slight benefit for her. If you are not a talented actor with amazing talents, then the progress of acting should be slow. Good movies, maintaining self-confidence and thinking, then one day, acting will suddenly burst out. On the contrary, the result of promoting seedlings is the loss of self-confidence and direction, acting stagnant, or even worse. Nothing is more suitable for her performance than "High School Musical 2".
For Wang Yang's words, although Jessica felt very sorry, but she also understood.
Sitting at the desk in the study, Wang Yang looked at the script text of "Junuo" on the computer screen and frowned, thinking about the candidate of Juno. He gently asked himself: "Rachel?" He was serious After thinking for a while, she shook her head and said: "Her acting is not enough."
Now, Rachel is actually the most suitable for playing the role of a kind of exaggerated style. The feeling of "bad girl" is probably because she is a major in drama and is affected by the performance style of stage drama. So in "The Ghost Record", Rachel's performance is quite satisfactory, and she often asks Wang Yang for hard guidance; but in "High School Musical", she plays the role of Xia Pei, handy, and she is alive and well. , Just twice.
But if she was asked to play Juno, it would be wrong; and in appearance, she looks a bit mature, suitable for playing school flowers and cheerleaders, but not for Juno.
Wang Yang recalled the girls who participated in the audition for "High School Musical" last time, like Jennifer Love Hewitt, Eliza Dushku, Jordana Brewster and so on ... Soon he will shake Started, all will not work. There are so many talented actresses?
After thinking about the famous young actress in Hollywood for a while, Wang Yang still had no clue. He picked up his phone and dialed a number. He said: "Sandy, help me contact those agencies. I need a heroine. Tell them. There is no upper limit for the recommended remuneration. As long as it is 'Junuo', as for the requirements of casting, I have sent it to your mailbox. "
Hanging up the phone, Wang Yang prayed silently, hoping to find "Junuo" smoothly this time. So think about the actor Paul's candidate first? His script adds a lot of difficulty to the acting requirements of the actor. It is not only necessary to speak calmly and quietly as before, but also must have a certain ability to perform the inner play, so that the mental state can be changed.
If you only consider the appearance, Wang Yang has a person in his heart. It is not Tom Willing, he is too tall and strong; nor is Zachary, his temperament is a little stern; Michael Pete, his temperament can be very decadent, He looked like a captain of a youth rock band when he smoked, but when his expression was gentle, there was no dark circles, and it could be very sunny.
In the big jump of the basketball hall at the end of "High School Musical", after playing with the makeup artist, Michael Pete became a young and beautiful boy, and he can be cool sometimes.
After thinking for a while, Wang Yang pressed a number, stood up and walked to the window, looking at the green lawn outside. As soon as the phone was connected, he said: "Hi Michael, my new plan" Juneau ", you know Is that right? "Michael Pete over there said:" Of course, Yang, there is a role for me? "Wang Yang smiled and said:" Yes, come to my house in the afternoon and try the actor. "Michael- Pete froze, breathing a little harder, and said, "Actor?"
"Actor, of course, you want to try the dragon suit too." Wang Yang laughed again and commanded, "Take yourself as bright as possible, a humble and gentle but cool boy, you know?" Michael Pete agreed: "I know, I will."
Putting down his phone, Wang Yang went back to the computer and continued to write the script of "Junuo".
Near the evening, Michael Pete came outside the door of Wang Yang's house. He spent an afternoon organizing himself, cutting his hair, choosing clothes, and showing his sunniest side. He took a deep breath, pressed the doorbell, and after a while the door opened. It was Jessica wearing a kitchen apron. Michael smiled and greeted: "Hello, Jessica."
"Hi, Michael." Jessica greeted, letting Michael Pete in, and shouting inside the room: "Yang, Michael is coming." She smiled at Michael and pointed to the kitchen side, saying: " I will cook first. "
Since Wang Yang moved here, Jessica has often come to take charge of the kitchen work. After the "Pregnancy Oolong Incident", she came to make dinner every day, just like a virtuous wife.
At this time, Wang Yang came down from the study upstairs. He smiled slightly at Jessica who was walking over to the kitchen, and then looked at Michael Pete. He walked over the night and embraced him. He looked at Michael and laughed. Road: "Hey, Sunshine Boy" Michael Pete smiled lightly, said: "Alright?" Wang Yang nodded and praised: "Very good."
The two came to the living room and sat down on the sofa. Wang Yang continued to look at Michael Pete and said: "Michael, you are very satisfied with your appearance. The only problem is your acting skills." Michael Pee nodded. , Said: "What should I do?" Wang Yang picked up a few pages of scripts that had been prepared on the coffee table and handed him: "You look at this first."
Michael Pete took the script and looked at it seriously. Waiting for him to finish quietly, Wang Yang explained to him: "This character, Poly, he is a guy who has never been in love. He is still a virgin, but that is the only time that something went wrong." Wang Yang laughed, Michael -Pete laughed because he had never been in love. This is also one of the reasons why Wang Yang considers Michael. When an actor and a character have a lot in common, then he can perform better and charm.
Wang Yang laughed again: "Michael, think about it, you have a girl you like." Michael Pete shrugged, Wang Yang continued: "She suddenly took the initiative to have a relationship with you, and then a month later, she again I suddenly told you that I am pregnant. Perform this, the first page of the script. "
"Okay." Michael Pete looked at the script and began to perform on his face. His expression was dumb, his lips unnaturally opened, and he opened his mouth again and again. After a long time, he said The line said: "I know, what should we do?"
Looking at his performance, Wang Yang didn't move, but praised it in his heart. He had to say that Michael Pete had a certain talent for acting. He easily grasped the character's character, so his performance was in the general direction. Is completely correct. Michael Pete performed to himself for a while, and Wang Yang said again: "OK, Michael, in the next paragraph, you see Juno walking on the campus, she is holding her belly, but her book fell to the ground, She could n’t bend down to pick it up. The classmates next to her were laughing at you. You want to go up and care about her, but you just broke up with her and hesitated. Perform.
Because Poly is not as smart as Juno, he is a very quiet young man, so his performances are basically focused on the face.
Michael Pete responded and thought for a while, frowning slightly, his eyes staring into the distance as if Juno was there.
"Good." Wang Yang nodded, and then continued to test Michael Pete's several performances, almost the actor Paul's mentality changes throughout the process, from the initial fear, simply didn't want to control; to want to care about Juno, but Juno didn't care much about him, he was also hesitant; then later he had to take responsibility and face it with Juno. His enthusiasm also moved Juno ...
Michael Pete's performance is within the framework, and it expresses the character's mentality very well, but there are some green details in some small details, but that makes him look more like a high school student, without feeling too mature.
"Man." Wang Yang blinked at Michael and smiled, "I think it's you." Michael Pete froze, without breathing, and took a long breath before saying, "I am "Actor?" Wang Yang nodded and smiled. "Yes, there are so many lines and lots of shots this time."
Michael Pete seemed a little helpless, constantly changing his sitting posture, reaching into his pocket with his right hand, watching Wang Yang and asking, "I want to smoke a cigarette, okay?"
Wang Yang shook his finger ~ EbookFREE.me ~ said: "No, from now on, you have to quit smoking until the end of the shooting of" Junuo ". What I want to see on you is the sunny side; your decadent side first Put it away. "
"Oh, okay." Michael Pete's right hand stretched out, and he suddenly laughed, smiling happily, his face full of sunshine, and said with a smile: "For the dream, I quit."
Wang Yang also laughed a few times, and was also very happy in his heart. He remembered that when he was in New York, Michael Pete was about to die, and he remembered that Michael shouted madly on the street ... insisting on pursuit, If you never give up, there will always be gains, won't you? He smiled and patted Michael Pete on the shoulder and said, "Michael, be prepared. Juno is a tough guy."
"Young, who played that?" Michael Pete asked curiously. Wang Yang shrugged a little helplessly and said, "Come and tell me."
