Li Yi is quite patient when it comes to child actors.
Because, it can be said that a state like Harris's is too normal.
No one is really born to be good at acting, even if he is good at acting again, after all, age is there.
"Director, can you give me ten minutes?" Harris Kane said suddenly.
Li Yi somewhat guessed what he was going to do, and couldn't help but frown slightly. He was not the kind of person who would ignore everything just to make a movie.
Although his original intention of choosing Harris Kane was because he had had a similar experience, to be honest, Li Yi was quite conflicted. Harris Kane obviously wanted to join the show.
It will undoubtedly make filming smoother, but no one can guarantee the consequences of Harris Kane entering the scene.
"Hey, Harris, this is just filming, do you understand?" Li Yi couldn't help but remind him.
"I know, yes, this is just filming!" Harris looked at Li Yi and said firmly.
"You need to ask for your mother's consent, otherwise, I don't support you doing this!" Li Yi still said.
Harris Kane hesitated and said: "ok!"
I don’t know how Harris Kane got Milia to agree to let him be in the play, but she agreed, so Li Yi naturally wouldn’t stop him.
Sure enough, after Harris Kane was cast, the filming went extremely smoothly.
But there are also some problems, that is, Harris Kane has become withdrawn, unsociable, and extremely sensitive.
Apart from his adoptive mother Milia, he hardly talks to anyone else except when filming.
After Harris Kane "entered the scene", the filming progress of the movie became extremely fast.
Li Yi actually likes the working style of the American side. Many people think that the Hollywood crew does not work overtime or anything like that. In fact, it is just spreading rumors.
In Hollywood, everyone can choose to refuse to work overtime and work according to normal working hours. This is a right that everyone has.
In fact, in a place like the film crew, if you really ask for overtime work, no one will refuse unless you are really out of ideas.
But the amazing thing is that the Hollywood crew rarely works overtime, mainly due to cost considerations.
Because it’s okay to work overtime, but the overtime pay is much higher than in China.
Therefore, most of the time in Hollywood, directors will not choose to let the crew work overtime unless it is necessary for filming.
Li Yi was not in a hurry this time, so he naturally did not choose to work overtime or anything like that, and ended shooting on time almost every day.
Sometimes, even if the shooting speed is fast and the shooting plan is completed in advance, Li Yi will not continue shooting during the remaining time.
Maybe if we were in China, everyone would be eager to finish filming as soon as possible, but here, that's really not the case.
For this reason, although the shooting progress has been accelerated a lot, in fact, the time used has not been reduced much.
The filming schedule for the movie is three months to complete all filming. This time is actually very loose.
The filming of "The Sixth Sense" went very smoothly, and there is actually a lot of attention paid to this movie in China.
Although "The Sixth Sense" is destined not to be released in the mainland, it will be released at the same time in Hong Kong Island and Treasure Island. For this reason, many Li Yi fans have even made preparations to go to Hong Kong Island or Treasure Island to watch "The Sixth Sense"
The plan for the movie "Sense".
In North America, Dean Films' promotion of "The Sixth Sense" has already begun.
The schedule for "The Sixth Sense" was already scheduled as early as the project was approved. Li Yi's movies are so stable.
Although Li Yi is not as well-known in North America as he is in China, in fact, he still has some influence. Although he cannot compare with those big local directors who have been in Hollywood for many years, he is definitely the most influential among Chinese directors.
Outstanding.
After all, Li Yi has had many masterpieces in Hollywood before, which have achieved good box office results and reputation in North America.
...
However, after all, Li Yi has not come to Hollywood to film a movie in many years, so Dean Pictures still held a viewing party before the movie was officially released.
This is related to the issue of the subsequent release scale of this film.
Of course, this actually means ordering the show in advance.
However, this time the screening of "The Sixth Sense" was private, and was only by invitation, including Hollywood film critics, media people, and theater representatives.
Likewise, some of Li Yi's old friends from China also came over to support Li Yi.
"So, are you planning to stay here?" Zhao Guangming, who came from China, asked.
"Why do you stay here? Just come and shoot a movie that can't be made in China once in a while to enjoy yourself. No matter how nice this place is, it is my family's place after all!" Li Yidan said innocently.
He was telling the truth. Even though James Dean of Dean Pictures was very fond of him, other Hollywood giants also sent people to contact him to seek cooperation.
But he is always just an outsider here.
The first special viewing event was held in a theater under the Dean Cinemas chain controlled by Dean Films.
"Although Li is a Chinese director, I have always paid attention to his movies. I have to say that he can always surprise people!" said Taylor, a well-known Hollywood film critic.
"Yes, today's Hollywood is too commercialized, and almost all of them follow the same old routine without any innovation. They say there is a shortage of scripts every day, but in fact they are not afraid of risks." Another film critic, Chris, nodded in agreement.
.
The influence of the Hollywood film critic group has actually been declining with the rise of the Internet and self-media. The influence of these veteran professional film critics has been declining.
Of course, despite this, no one is willing to offend this group casually.
In the early years, professional film critics in Hollywood could even influence a movie's box office and award winnings, but now they have plummeted.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Maybe they can have a little influence in terms of awards, but in terms of box office, it is very embarrassing.
This also caused their income to drop significantly.
But there is one thing. The opinions of professional film critics in Hollywood and those of self-media film critics are the same.
That is, Hollywood has been resting on its laurels. Fewer and fewer people dare to innovate. There are fewer and fewer original movies and more and more sequel movies.
The same media also advocated that Hollywood should bravely try to innovate, but the giants of Hollywood scoffed at this. It is not your money that is spent. You stand and talk without pain, right?
For this reason, both the media and film critics have been saying that Hollywood needs disruptors.
Therefore, Li Yi's arrival with a new film at this time naturally made these film critics and media people have some expectations.
After all, the "acquaintances" who report about Hollywood every day are not that fresh anymore. Someone like Li Yi is very suitable. Although Li Yi is not a Hollywood director, the same Li Yi is not an unknown person. Quite the opposite.
, they can be said to be second to none in the Chinese film industry.
And indeed, Li Yi's previous movies released in Hollywood and North America are indeed very different from the current mainstream movies in Hollywood.
For example, this time's "The Sixth Sense" is actually a relatively rare subject for the North American film industry in this era.
Supernatural-themed movies are not uncommon in Hollywood, but few major directors are willing to direct such movies because the upper limit for supernatural-themed movies is limited!
Of course, this refers to traditional supernatural-themed films.
Soon everyone in the cinema stopped talking because the movie officially started to show.
The first scene, Li Yi goes to the countryside and does as the Romans do, is also quoted from the scene in the original movie, that is, seeing the big from the small, an old light bulb, the light is gradually getting brighter, in fact, it is also for the whole film including the first scene that follows.
The scene sets the tone!
As the plot progresses, the achievements of child psychologist Mike are introduced through the dialogue between the psychologist and his wife Anna.
He is a child psychiatrist who has been engaged in child psychotherapy for many years and has received numerous accolades.
Even the city government awarded him a certificate of honor.
The couple happily celebrated together. When they got to the bedroom and were about to get intimate, their wife Anna's face suddenly changed.
Their bedroom window was smashed.
Suddenly a figure floated past, and Anna screamed.
Suddenly the whole atmosphere changed, from the previous warmth to something a little scary.
Has someone invaded? Or?
The camera quickly revealed the answer. A young man appeared in the bathroom of his home. He gave people a strange feeling. He took off his clothes, leaving only his shorts, but he didn't look like that.
A ferocious intruder looks like a helpless child.
Mike told his wife to be quiet and not move, and then said to the man, "You're breaking into a private home!"
"You don't know anything!" the uninvited guest said with grievance.
Then he walked out.
"Why do people get scared when they are alone?" the young man asked with tears in his eyes, covering his mouth.
"I know!" He asked himself again.
At this time, Anna also felt that something was wrong with him and subconsciously asked: "What do you want to do?"
But the young man seemed to be stimulated and could not control his emotions. He said loudly: "He promised me, and I want him to do it!"
This also lets Mike’s wife Anna in the movie understand that the other person knows Mike, and it also lets the audience in the theater know that this person knows Mike.
But Mike didn't recognize him anymore. He asked: "Do I know you?"
"Doctor, don't you recognize me? Don't you remember your patient? An urban clinic, a single-parent family, maybe suffering from a mood disorder..."
His words made Mike think.
"I was so scared at the time. You said I couldn't face my parents' divorce. You were wrong, you were wrong!"
"Look at me now, I don't want to be scared anymore!"
"Let me think about it!" Mike was still thinking, still recalling who he was. He had too many patients.
But the boy started beating the door frame angrily: "I've been waiting for you for ten years, and I won't wait any longer!"
"Ben Feiken?..." Mike began to try to name each name...
"Some people call me a freak. I am indeed a freak. Look at me..." The boy cried and cried uncontrollably.
Finally Mike remembered who he was: "Vincent? Of course I remember you, quiet, smart, compassionate, very compassionate!"
"You forgot that I was also cursed, you gave up on me!" Vincent looked at him with tears.
"You gave up on me!" he said suddenly angrily.
"Vincent, I'm sorry that I didn't help you. Let me try again, if you can give me another chance!"
But Vincent responded by turning around, picking up the gun and pulling the trigger.
Mike gets shot, then Vincent takes the gun and puts it to his head!
As another gunshot rang out, the camera panned over to show Mike lying on the bed covering the area where he was shot.
Anna came forward crying...
The big screen went dark!
"Next autumn!"
Subtitles appear!
The streets are covered with yellow leaves, the fresh air after the heavy rain, and the strong British atmosphere can be felt through the screen. The psychiatrist Mike is sitting on a horizontal chair holding a medical record in his hand. This is the man who shot and injured
A former patient who then committed suicide, Vincent's medical records!
Suddenly he raised his head and looked at the door opposite. The door was opened, and the little boy Cole came out. He looked a little alert and cautious.
Mike opened another medical record, and what was written on it was the name and age of the little boy Cole, Cole Hill, 9 years old!
Parents are divorced, extremely anxious, withdrawn, and may be suffering from a mood disorder!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! These keywords are all circled!
The audience immediately understood that this was his patient!
And he was a patient with very similar symptoms to Vincent!
The little boy closed the door, locked it, took out a pair of glasses from his bag and put them on.
Mike put the information in his bag, but when he looked up again, Cole had already run out of sight.
He quickly got up and followed him.
Cole hurriedly ran outside the church, opened the door, and got in.
In the church, Cole was squatting under a chair with a toy soldier muttering something.
Mike walked over and showed a kind smile: "Cole, don't be afraid, I am Dr. Mike!"
"We were supposed to meet today, but...I didn't make it! I'm sorry!"
Cole said nothing.
Mike asked him again: "I noticed your glasses don't have lenses!"
"This is my dad's! The lenses are uncomfortable!" Cole finally spoke.
"What did you just say to the toy soldier?" Mike was curious.
Cole spoke a string of Latin words and then told Mike, "It's Latin!"
Mike looked at Cole's arm and saw scratches on it.
"Do they all speak Latin?" Mike asked.
"No! There is only one! Are you a good doctor?" Cole asked.
"Yes!" Mike said and continued: "I used to! I got a certificate, which was awarded to me by the mayor!"
Cole put away the toy figures and turned to leave. Suddenly he turned to look at Mike: "I'll see you again, right?"
"if you do not mind!"
Cole turned around and left, but when he passed by the place where the statues were placed, he conveniently stole one!
There are parts of this paragraph that the audience can understand, but there are also parts that they cannot understand.
It is understandable that Mike felt deeply guilty because he had given up on Vincent earlier, so when he met a patient like Cole who had a similar condition to Mike, he would not give up this time.
But what I can't understand is Cole's behavior, which is obviously weird.
When Mike got home, there were only leftovers on the table and his wife had fallen asleep.
She had obviously cried and had a tissue in her hand.
Mike turned around and took out the key to open the basement door, went to the basement, and took out a Latin dictionary.
He found the Latin passage that Cole said before and translated it.
"O God, I cry to you from the abyss!"
This extremely weird statement made Mike a little confused. In fact, the audience in the cinema was also confused!
