Chapter 584： queen bee

"How was the situation on the set?"

After "Prada" started, Lehmann went back to Firefly again.

Come on now, first ask the executive producer Blake to the crew.

Because he found that sometimes there were too many women, and they would be as unapproachable as the only queen bee in the swarm. When they met, they would bite and fight, and they had to decide the first one.

"The progress in the morning is not bad, and David is in a good mood." Blake said with a smile: "I found that Annie seemed to be holding her breath and wanted to prove her professionalism as an actor. This kind of competition is healthy. But , there is a problem with the clothing department, there are not enough sponsored clothes."

"Contact Prada."

Lyman was most concerned about the shooting situation, so he asked, "How do you think Anne and Emily are doing?"

Lyman is not worried about Meryl, because Meryl's performance is obvious to all. She is very professional, and she even takes her attitude a little too seriously, which is why she finds Annie unhappy.

"It's not bad, at least it seems so. David's shooting progress is a little faster than expected." Black said sincerely: "They can all recognize that they are working, and they will not substitute other unnecessary emotions. It's well controlled."

As for what happened in private, no one wanted to care.

When Lyman heard this, he nodded.

Stepping into the studio, Lyman stood on David's left, watching Annie and Meryl's rivalry.

This clip is also the scene where Andy came to the interview.

"Who are you."

Meryl took off her glasses and looked at Annie, sizing and scrutinizing her like a superior.

"I'm Andrea Sykes, and I'm here to apply for your assistant." Anne replied calmly with a hint of flattery.

"Humph."

Meryl took another look at Annie and picked up a newspaper, expressing disdain and not wanting to pay attention.

Emily sighed slightly beside her, and was about to pull Annie away.

But I heard Annie say: "Ma'am, if you can condescend to take a look at your resume, you will find that I graduated from Northwestern University and got an offer from Stanford Law School. Obviously, my resume can be sent to you, which has proved the personnel The department thinks I'm up to the job of making calls and pouring coffee for you."

Meryl put down the newspaper and glanced at Annie again, as if trying to see through the girl.

For some reason, this girl who was dressed badly and didn't fit in with her circle actually made her a little interested.

......

A person's good acting skills do not mean that every character will be portrayed in a charming manner. It is actually called a narrow play. A good actor should play a role without showing his face, and can firmly grasp the audience only by body language. sight.

Like Meryl, she's less than twenty minutes in total in "Mrs. Kramers," but in that movie she's almost as different as the lead actor Dustin Hoffman. Up and down, so she relied on that role to seal the queen.

At this moment, Meryl only has two lines, and she almost relies on her eyes or facial expressions to express her meaning, but she just lets the audience know what she wants to express.

On the other hand, Annie has a lot of lines, but her eyes are not in place, and she can barely keep up with Meryl's pace.

Emily didn't talk about it, she was equivalent to a background board in this scene, and there was really not much room to play.

But obviously, Meryl and Annie's rivalry was guided by Meryl throughout the whole process. It is estimated that Annie knew that her limelight was overshadowed. When David shouted, "good, prepare for the next paragraph", she had a cold face I went back to the dressing room.

No matter what the crew members next to them think, no one will talk too much about this kind of thing.

In fact, the same kind of repelling is the norm in the entertainment industry.

The more famous one is "The king does not see the king."

For example, the two Toms have never cooperated, and a superstar is unwilling to easily match another first-line movie star.

Because Meryl is no longer young, she can only play supporting roles most of the time. If she was young, she might not work with Annie.

David watched the replay, and after confirming the effect of the camera again, the crew began to record the next scene, which was the first day of work after Andy passed the interview.

In any case, the three actresses still maintained their professional attitudes despite their poor relationship with each other. Lehmann watched on for a while. They had successfully passed the three steps, and today's shooting task has been completely completed.

And because the crew's budget is not very large, it is impossible to support long-term group shooting, working eight hours a day, and everyone will be off work.

After all, Hollywood is used to working hours like this, and if overtime is required, it's an additional payroll and needs to be negotiated.

This is impossible for the "Prada" crew.

Anyway, there is still plenty of time to plan. Not in a hurry.

At the end of the day's shooting, Lyman saw Meryl's husband Don and her two daughters coming to pick her up at the door of the set.

Meryl, who had finished the show, did not feel the oppression of acting, and was completely the image of an ordinary woman.

This Oscar nail household can indeed be said to be living the most standard life of a middle-class housewife.

She doesn't cook, but spends a lot of time with her children, and can often see pictures of her driving her children to school in some tabloids.

"The reason I don't live near Hollywood is because the atmosphere there doesn't match our family's."

Meryl's husband Tang chatted with Lehmann with a smile: "I mean, those all-night, drunken atmospheres seem too impetuous to many people, and are also very unfavorable for the growth of children. Contact too early , it's easy to go the wrong way."

"Indeed." Lehmann agreed: "I also received an invitation from Hefner (the founder of Playboy) to attend his private party the day before yesterday, where all kinds of champagne and wine were sprayed recklessly, and everyone was talking about it. Tens of millions, hundreds of millions of dollars, it made me feel like Franklin was suddenly worthless."

Meryl also interjected: "This is already a serious social party, and some parties held for unhealthy purposes are fatal."

Well, at this time, I have to talk about the dark history of Angelina Jolie, which is also a well-known scandal among Hollywood actresses.

This extremely individual actress, who was ridiculous when she was young - isn't much better now.

In 1999, she became addicted and had no money to pay for "chips", so she was directly filmed by the dealer who sold the goods.

Since then, this dealer has been entangled with Angelina. In addition to extorting money from time to time, he often sells private photos to newspapers to earn extra money.

Even if Angelina successfully turned over with "Tomb Raider", this dark history is still the unmentioned wound.

In the next few days, the shooting of "Prada" is still progressing slowly as planned.

By November 18th.

"Pan's Labyrinth" is also officially launched.

The project, which had a higher budget than the original, starred monster professional Huron Pullman and 12-year-old Spanish child star Ivana Baquero.

It is worth mentioning that among many competitors, Ivana took the role of Ophelia only by relying on the performance that was closest to the role and her smart and smart reaction.

"Boss, we need to recruit more professional management talents."

Going back to the Firefly Studios building, Lyman heard Joseph say this.

At this time, he was checking the project progress email sent back by Alfonso.

In fact, Joseph quite enjoys this feeling of being in control, but he knows that with the development of Firefly, he does not have so much energy to manage by himself.

Only now, he is a little powerless, even if the sleep time is reduced every day, he can't handle the increasing number of company operation problems.

For example, it is necessary to follow up on the authorized character image sales of Mattel toys;

For example, the second round of film broadcasting rights also needs to contact TV stations in various regions;

For another example, the market research tasks of pay-for-demand and DVD sales also need to be done by manpower, and this must be done by someone who is familiar with this type of business, otherwise it is easy to be deceived - don't think that Blockbuster is not careful, If it is not strictly controlled, concealing the specific number of sales is also something they will do.

And these are all at the loss of the company's profits, so the expansion of management should really be put on the agenda.
