1557 cat and mouse
Everyone thinks Renly is an angel, but in fact……
It's not that Renly is a devil, but Renly is not an innocent and kind angel..
Now the whole of Hollywood is gradually beginning to understand Renly - I'm talking about industry insiders, not lay audiences. In the general impression of professionals, Renly is an amiable, approachable and elegant gentleman, no matter whether he is promoting or promoting unknown people. Damien Chazelle, despite the influence of pay and subject matter, starred in "Detachment". You can feel it in every aspect. This is an actor who is based on his work and role..
As for his wisdom and cunning when facing media reporters, this is completely a display of personality charm. Not only does it not affect the impression, but it makes people appreciate it even more..
It is undeniable that this is a fact.
But only those who truly understand Renly understand that this is just one side of the story; they do not see the awkwardness brought about by Renly's pickiness and strictness, nor do they feel the oppression brought about by Renly's sophistication and wisdom. They didn't even realize the fear brought about by Renly's decisive killing..
All the works and characters seemed to be invisible to Renly. Whether any project was placed in front of Renly, whether it was good or bad, Renly's judgment standard would never change, even if the producer and director It doesn't help to talk too much. When it comes to performance and character, Renly has no wiggle room..
Unlike Andy and Roy, they need to think over and over again to judge the quality of a work. They think about the subject matter, the characters, the cast, the director, etc., and every judgment must be carefully considered. No matter how cautious you are, this also leaves room for discussion for the producers - at least both sides still have a chance to compete..
To put it simply, facing Andy and Roy, they still had a chance to fight; but facing Renly, they didn't even have a chance..
Just like Universal Pictures.
If it was Andy who negotiated, Thomas Tull's plan, and Ron Meyer's avoidance, Andy could still mediate, and the matter could still be discussed after all; but if Renly came forward, the matter would probably have happened as early as It ended months ago, and now Universal and Renly's relationship is going to be at an impasse..
Lose-lose?
From the perspective of the outside world, this is correct. Both Renly and Universal Pictures have offended each other and cut off future cooperation opportunities. From a long-term perspective, Renly, as an actor, will suffer even more..
But Andy and Roy know that the so-called "injury" must have a premise, that is, they care about the benefits brought by this relationship, and Renly will never care. In other words, Universal Pictures is constantly hurt. , Renly doesn't care. As for the long term, looking at the current "gravity", it's still unclear who has suffered the greater loss..
Therefore, Universal Pictures should be glad that Andy still has not completely broken up and is just staying in a deadlock; instead of Renly completely cutting off all possibilities.
But... no one can see through Renly's "true face". Even Andy and Roy had to sigh that Renly's cover-up was so perfect! From this perspective, Renly is actually the devil..
As for the rumors in the outside world, Andy and Roy can only be dumb and eat coptis. They cannot take the initiative to smear their own actors just to whitewash their agents and managers; what's more, they must carefully control all projects and works, otherwise they will not be able to stand in the future. When discussing the project in front of Renly, they could not convince him and would only put themselves in a bad situation, which would be the most embarrassing moment..
They knew better than anyone how difficult a person Renly was..
Roy and Andy had just said a few words, and they had already found resonance with each other, which made Andy chuckle and said happily, "However, it is the agents and managers who take the blame for actors. We really have no right to complain about our work." Although the current pot is indeed a bit big..
Roy thought about it seriously, "That's true. If it was Renly, half of Hollywood would probably be offended by him now." That serious and serious expression of complaints seemed particularly focused..
Andy suddenly raised his head and looked behind Roy in astonishment, with an expression of fear in his eyes. But Roy didn't buy it at all and picked up the coffee cup in front of him. "Let's forget about such a clumsy prank. It's okay to trick Nathan.".”
Apparently, Andy was playing a trick on Roy, trying to create the illusion that Renly was standing behind Roy, as if they had been caught speaking ill of Renly..
However, Roy will not be fooled easily. First, Renly is in Canada now and has just joined the "Interstellar" crew. How could he appear in Los Angeles? Second, even if Renly does appear suddenly, he won't mind. Renly just laughs off these indifferent "bad words"..
But Andy didn't panic. He remained unmoved. He quietly closed his open mouth, tried hard to look like "I'm pretending to be calm", and then secretly looked at him with his peripheral vision. Behind Roy, it was as if Renly was really standing behind him, just calming him down with his eyes..
For a moment, Roy almost fell for the trick..
But then Roy caught the stiffness and deliberateness in Andy's expression. He couldn't help but shook his head slightly and complained directly, "You should be lucky that you are an agent and not an actor. His acting skills are really terrible. Please don't try to imitate Renly's acting. God, the quality of your acting is really terrible..”
Roy's full-throated complaints made Andy laugh..
Roy's words were not over yet, "I still can't understand why Renly chose you as his agent. Did Renly never say that you are like a child??”
Roy said that Andy is like a child, but he is not the same - this sentence is obviously in retaliation for Andy's same complaint just now. Now he is still fighting back not to be outdone..
After all, his prank was discovered. Andy's conduct was still far behind Renly's, but Andy wasn't annoyed either. He put his hands on his fat belly and rested his back comfortably on the back of the chair, " Didn't Renly ever say that you have no sense of humor?.”
“Ha. Ha. It's as if Renly needs more sense of humor." Roy laughed twice and retorted with a smile..
Andy also forced a false smile, "But I'm sure Renly could use some childishness..”
Two middle-aged people over 40 years old, but like children in kindergarten, quarreling over a "lollipop" is really shocking, not to mention that these two people are the absolute center of the entire Hollywood. , I don’t know what those producers can think; but if Renly really shows up, he won’t be surprised, because this is the daily level.
Sometimes, Renly can't help but have an illusion. The two of them look like high school students who haven't grown up. God knows why they are always tit for tat. It's not the kind of friendship where they laugh and curse, but they are real. They are inseparable from each other, just like "cat and mouse", but he can't tell who is Tom and who is Jerry..
Being used to two people bickering next to each other, Renly was able to relax; unfortunately, he was not in Los Angeles now and could not watch this good show on the spot..
After finishing the promotional trip for "Gravity", Renly arrived in Alberta, Canada without stopping, and joined the "Interstellar" crew who had arrived at the filming base in advance to prepare for a new start..
As we all know, Christopher Nolan hates green screens very much. As long as he can do real shots, he will never use green screens. If he can't do real shots, then he will build a model or a studio and use half real shots and half computer special effects. If he can't even build a model, he might think of other ways..
In Christopher's view, green screen shooting can really bring your imagination to the extreme. Except for the actors, all scenes are imaginary, and computer special effects can be completed, just like in Marvel movies such as "The Avengers" , not to mention super scenes like the Battle of New York, even the fights between characters may have been shot separately. During the performance, the actors have no idea who the actors they are fighting against are..
But at the same time, this also lacks a sense of reality. No matter how realistic the computer special effects are, they are still pictures produced by computers. The distortion of details is a fatal loss to the viewing effect. More importantly, the actors' performances cannot be perfected. To the reality, there may even be low-level mistakes such as rigidity and out-of-focus..
Christopher believes that green screen shooting is destroying the film industry - but his ideas are conservative. The huge commercial success of Marvel movies proves the huge potential of special effects movies; nevertheless, Christopher remains unmoved and always insists on using special effects movies. Complete the movie your own way.
It is precisely because of Christopher's persistence that his works also present numerous whimsical ideas, such as the scene of Paris folding up in "Inception", which was shot using a reduced model and then simulated in the studio. The real situation is then performed by the actors, and finally the two are combined into one to create the effect seen on the big screen in the movie.
Such shooting methods are retro yet solid, novel yet subtle, and indeed present the uniqueness of film art..
This time, "Interstellar" was shot because many of the shots involved scenes from space and other planets, but Christopher still did not compromise and selected different shooting locations around the world to meet different shooting needs, even wormholes , universe and other plot details are also taken into consideration, and the shooting is completed as much as possible by combining real scenes and special effects..
“The crew of "Interstellar" has traveled all over the world, and Alberta was the first stop after the filming started..
