Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 452: librarian

Identifying Brandon Fisher and Rachel Weisz is not a hassle.

After all, neither of them are well-known actors at the moment. For commercial blockbusters produced by big directors like Charlotte, as long as they have not actually been filmed in other crews, they will definitely fly over.

Therefore, the crew of "The Mummy" didn't spend much effort on the issue of the male and female protagonists.

Although, in order for the taste of "Qin Ding" to be less heavy, Charlotte also specially asked Sean Daniel to organize an audition and found several "accompanying the prince to study" roles...

In short, the matter of the hero and heroine is so settled.

When Charlotte returned to the UK, in addition to Sean Daniel, who went with him to set up the "Mummy" studio in London, Brandon Fisher and Rachel Weisz also accompanied him.

The former is to go to Britain for military training for a period of time.

On the one hand to make the body more standard, on the other hand, we must also develop the temperament of a grassroots officer in the empire that never sets.

——Although he played O'Connor, he is still an American cowboy-like character in his bones.

As for Rachel Weisz, this English rose stopped by to go home.

Of course, Charlotte also asked her to try to go to the library—and the British Museum if possible—for an internship.

After all, even if Vichy herself has a very heavy temperament, the Evelyn she will play is a librarian.

This is a profession of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. If you want to play, you still have to take it seriously...

********

Rachel Weisz was a little strange to Charlotte's request.

She is not surprised that the other party wants to experience life by herself——

After all, it is normal for actors to experience life because of their roles in Hollywood, where methodological performance is advocating.

—— "Taxi Driver" Robert De Niro is famous.

Vichy's weird thing is, is this necessary? Shouldn't her role be a vase?

Is it necessary to achieve this level! ?

However, Rachel Weisz was not stupid enough to ask Charlotte this question-a Cambridge graduate, this is a matter of work-related attitude, it is still very clear.

She will honestly follow the director's request, even if the other party's request is a bit strange...

In fact, in the process of trying to get on the big ship of "The Mummy", Rachel was originally prepared for all kinds of "strange" requests.

She even considered this issue when she auditioned for the role in "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" before.

——Rachel, who majored in literature at university, how could she not see that there is no suitable role for a woman of her age in "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"?

She would participate in the audition, and originally wanted to show it in front of Charlotte Booth and make a good impression so that she could catch the line in the future.

——Recognized by big directors, but it is the most famous and safe way for actors to succeed.

——Otherwise, why are so many actresses, even many male actors, willing to be the director’s muse?

In Rachel's view, Charlotte Booth's current girlfriend, Charlize Theron, is her best role model.

——Of course, she is not prepared to directly "dedicate herself to art", but if the other party proposes it, she will not refuse.

This is a Hollywood movie after all!

Unfortunately, after the audition, Charlotte Booth did not show any special appreciation for Rachel.

-Whether as an actor or as a woman.

This disappointed Rachel at the time.

It wasn't until she returned to the United States to play a small supporting role and received an audition invitation from the crew of "The Mummy"...

"Maybe this Charlotte director is really the kind of director who has a special pursuit of art!"

In the end, Rachel, who still couldn't figure out what the other party asked for, could only give Charlotte such a definition.

——Don’t say it, thinking about it this way, it’s kind of like that.

Although Charlotte has always focused on making commercial films since his debut, the pictures in his films are indeed very beautiful, with a sense of artistic pursuit.

——Even the earliest and simplest "Fatal Turn" is the same.

It’s just that, because every movie that Charlotte shoots has a very good storyline, and the rhythm is generally well controlled, which causes everyone to pay more attention to the story, and subconsciously ignores the director’s aesthetic sense of the picture. The pursuit.

"But even so, these excellent pictures add a lot to the movie."

In order to catch up on Charlotte’s line, Rachel, who had watched all the other’s movies, couldn’t help but brainstorm.

"Speaking of it, it seems that in all Charlotte Booth's movies, the actors' acting skills are generally online. People like Keanu Reeves who have little acting skills can perform at a super level. Does that mean , Does he have high demands on the acting skills of actors?"

Thinking about it this way, Rachel felt that she finally understood the purpose of Mr. Director for her to experience life.

——Respect for director Charlotte, and therefore has taken a step forward.

**********

However, in this regard, we can only say that Rachel Weisz, a young literary girl, thinks too much.

Charlotte asked her to experience life as a librarian, of course, for the film, but the most important purpose is outside the film——

Because the librarian is really a sacred position.

——For Charlotte.

Although he had not been a librarian before, he had also worked in a bookstore.

It was at that time that he met the old ghost.

Combining the previous information revealed by Xu Fu, and thinking about the various knowledge the old ghost taught herself, Charlotte has gradually found out her inheritance.

——His magic system is indeed inherited from Lao Tzu~lightnovelpub.net~ The history of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty royal family is one of the two most famous librarians in Chinese history.

At the same time, it is also the ancestor of Taoism.

Charlotte is not surprised to say that he pioneered the magic system, and that it is based on knowledge and guns to fight against ghosts and monsters.

After all, by relying on "The Tao is Taoist, the Taoist is very Taoist" such a celestial book that few people can understand, it has passed the heavily guarded Hangu Pass!

And since the magic of others has been passed on, in Charlotte’s film, the librarian naturally needs to be treated specially——

Because Charlotte guessed that in a role like a librarian, he might be able to try to inscribe some real spells.

——You must know that although he used a lot of spells in his previous movies, most of them were either on the scene or on the props.

——To the greatest extent, it is integrated into the makeup of the actors as in "Fatal Turn".

And now what he calls "engraving" is printed in the other party's subconscious.

——Of course, the process of "inscribe" spells is very troublesome.

Not only does the other party really need to have that professional temperament-this is why Charlotte asks Rachel Weis to experience life-but the other party has indeed seen the spell that Charlotte wants to "engrave".

——Charlotte intends to wait for the filming of this part of the work before proceeding. And the method of proceeding is naturally the props that he has specially processed.

As for what can be done after engraving the law, to be honest, Charlotte hasn't thought about it yet...

He just thought of a new method of applying spells, and he wanted to experiment eagerly.

And Rachel Weisz was lucky and unfortunately became Charlotte’s first experiment...
