Four hundred and ninetieth chapters strange country
Being a star is a step-by-step process. When acting in an ensemble, you are thinking about how to get hired as a special agent. Once you become a special agent, you are thinking about how to become a real actor.
When you become an actor, you think about how to become the protagonist, and then you think about how to become a first-line star actor. When you become a first-line star actor, you think about how to become a superstar. When you reach the position of superstar, you look around the world and start to fantasize.
To become a world-class star.
It can be said that with the change of status, the ambition of stars also changes. And for an ambitious person like Li Hyuk, how can he endure the loneliness at the bottom after tasting the taste of the top.
Therefore, Li Hyuk has always devoted 100% of his energy to each of his works, striving to be better and the best. If he had relaxed because of the debut of "Palace", he would not have had the following life experiences
, it is impossible for a powerful person to become his wife and support each other.
The same is true for "Tenet". The effort and energy that Lee Hyuk put in can be seen, so even though Lee Hyuk and Nolan argued several times, Nolan still admires Lee Hyuk. As an actor, Lee Hyuk is very good.
, achieved the best that can be achieved.
While Li He was talking to Da Mi Mi on the phone, Nolan was also talking about this matter with his wife Emma Thomas.
"Lee is a good actor, no worse than Matthew and Bell, but he is a bit nosy." Nolan said.
Matthew McConaughey and Christian Bale are both actors who have collaborated with Nolan and are also first-line Hollywood movie stars. Emma Thomas drank hot tea and said to Nolan with a smile: "I think actually
You’re a little shaken too, aren’t you?”
Nolan nodded and said nothing, which was regarded as acquiescence. In fact, he had long realized that the film was obscure and difficult to understand, and the audience would probably not understand it, but he insisted on doing so because he insisted on the original idea when writing the script.
This film has a nature of realization, but after all, it is a film with an investment of 200 million US dollars, and it is also a summer commercial blockbuster. What Nolan has done well in the past is that he has taken good care of the audience's experience, and at the same time expressed himself
The story and core you want to express.
Emma Thomas said to Nolan: "Actually, I shouldn't have said these words, but Darling, artistic expression comes from life, and dreams come from reality. At least, everyone must know what dreams they are having."
Nolan leaned back and looked at the script of "Tenet" in a daze. In fact, Jonathan Nolan and Nolan often argued in the past that the film "Interstellar" released in 2014 was a masterpiece, but Nolan and Nolan were behind it.
The brothers argued over the content of the script several times and the result was revised.
Because of Nolan's stubbornness and dictatorship, Jonathan Nolan was so angry that he did not continue to cooperate with Nolan in "Tenet", which caused Nolan to let himself go in terms of script creation, which led to such a situation in "Tenet".
The next day, due to poor sea conditions in the North Sea, the crew did not shoot. Li He and Nolan talked all afternoon. The two chatted happily. No one knew what they were talking about. But after that day, the two of them had no idea.
After some further debate, the filming of the film began to go smoothly.
Both Li Hyuk and Nolan are smart people. Although Nolan is a bit stubborn, he is not completely incapable of listening to other people's advice. Afterwards, he accepted the opinions of Li Hyuk and the rest of the crew and tried to simplify the theme of the film as much as possible.
Shoot so that the audience can understand as much as possible.
Simplification does not mean that it is not complicated. The movie is still complicated, but compared to the previous situation where the actors were confused and didn't know what they were filming, now at least the actors understand what they are filming.
After a week of filming in Norway, the crew went to Denmark for three days to film, and then the crew came to Mumbai, India, to shoot the scene where the protagonist and Neil meet for the first time and perform a mission.
The actor for Priya in the film was found to be India's national treasure actress Dimple Kapadia, who is already semi-retired. The casting of Priya still had some twists and turns, because there are no auditions for Indian Bollywood actors.
As is customary, many Indian actors are reluctant to audition.
Dimple Kapadia's nephew is a loyal fan of Nolan. Hearing that Nolan was worried about the role, he urged Dimple Kapadia to give it a try, so the Indian national treasure actress joined the cast.
After watching "Tenet", she recommended her old friends to star together, and the two played the role of husband and wife.
In front of a building in Mumbai, India, the filming crew was doing the final equipment. The filming attracted many local people to watch. India is also a frequent filming location for Hollywood, and every time I come here, I will attract the attention of the locals.
When Li Hyuk came to Mumbai, India, he walked around with Robert Pattinson. Robert Pattinson was deeply impressed and said to Li Hyuk: "I never thought that heaven and hell are so close.
.”
Li He pursed his lips and smiled, understanding that Robert Pattinson was talking about the slums here. If you didn't come here, you wouldn't know that there are two styles of a city, and that the distance between the city and the poor would be so close.
In fact, the hell in the United States is not worse than India at all, but in terms of shock level, there is probably no place in Mumbai that can compare. Indians often boast that Mumbai is a metropolis that is not inferior to London, New York, and Los Angeles. It is very prosperous, but behind the prosperity is
Desperate but ignored.
But this has nothing to do with the crew. Everyone is here for work. India is not a good place to travel. The security situation is terrible and there are some special hobbies.
After coming to the set for a few days, a female crew member was almost raped by some locals. Fortunately, several action actors from the set stepped forward and saved the poor lady.
Li He was even robbed when he was wandering around. He couldn't believe that he was robbed in broad daylight on a busy street. Fortunately, he was not a woman, otherwise he did not dare to think about the consequences.
Several successive safety incidents made Nolan pay more attention to it. In order to ensure the safety of the crew, Nolan specifically contacted the local police to provide protection, hired a local security company, and even strictly ordered the crew not to go out.
The news that Li Hyuk was robbed in India made news in China. In addition to marveling at the chaos of public security in India, netizens began to make jokes. Some fans were thankful for Li Hyuk. Fortunately, Li Hyuk was not a woman, otherwise this would have been tragic.
Da Mi Mi was even concerned and called to greet Li He. When he learned that Li He was fine, he also made a joke and teased that Li He was not a woman, otherwise he would be more dangerous. This made Li He depressed, and he secretly decided,
I will never come back to this damn place again.
Fortunately, there was no danger. The danger of being robbed was not even as dangerous as when Lee Hyuk and Robert Pattinson were filming bungee jumping scenes!
