Colin Myler knew it was time to stop.

Because things have long gone beyond the control, if you don't stop it, as Katharine Hepburn said, the second witch trial is about to appear. And this time the media did not escape the blame so easily - this time all the words accusing Hugo were not supported by any evidence.

Now, not only Hugo's good friends and former partners have come forward to clarify the facts, but the connections behind the scenes have gradually begun to exert tension, and it is surprising that the innovative artist agency has joined forces with Endeavor Elite Agency this time - if you consider that the "Seven Deadly Sins" is a project of the artists under the two companies, it may be explained, the huge media network force has gradually exerted pressure, and the turmoil is sinking down little by little.

Just look at the recent reports of major media outlets, and the newspapers led by the "Los Angeles Times" and the "New York Times" have finally spoken out: defending Hugo. Critical editorials, led by The New Yorker and The Washington Post, also joined the discussion: once again condemning the media for violating the basic principle of "truthfulness of news."

Every sign is that things have turned from cloudy to sunny. Quietly, Hugo's strong network of contacts has been formed, because Hugo has more and more economic stakeholders in Hollywood, which also means that more and more people will be on Hugo's side.

Time has passed, and Hugo is no longer what it used to be. To put it mildly, Hugo does have the capital to play big names; To put it nicely, Hugo is no longer a small actor in the media whose career will have huge ups and downs with a little negative news.

The New York Post could not afford a second witch trial, and even if there were multiple other media outlets at the bottom this time, the New York Post was no longer a target for a gun, but it was not something they could afford to do - because the outcome would be worse than the last. What's more, the New York Post has already benefited a lot from this incident, and there is no need for them to insist on going their own way.

Therefore, Colin withdrew his troops early, even a little earlier than Hugo's interview, and the "New York Post" has stopped following up on the follow-up report. The cunning of the fox lies in the fact that it eats a trench and grows wise.

Not only Colin, but most of the media also felt the pressure from all directions, some public opinion, and even the big bosses behind them. Unconsciously, the whole big-name storm gradually subsided, and they have been clarified one after another, as for the real end of the matter, we need to wait until the day when the "truth is revealed", maybe after the release of "Seven Deadly Sins", the crew can't wait to spit it out.

The face of the media will certainly be very interesting.

Relatively speaking, the crew of "Seven Deadly Sins" is calm because of Hugo's calmness and calmness. In fact, even when he was interviewed by three media outlets to respond positively to the rumors of big names, Hugo still did not respond positively to the absence of the press conference of the opening ceremony, but only responded with his usual principle of "speaking with facts".

From beginning to end, Hugo was a target to divert the subject. Since people are firmly locked on Hugo, Hugo simply locks his eyes on himself completely, and lets the "Seven Deadly Sins" hide behind him and quietly devote himself to filming.

The filming of "Seven Deadly Sins" is indeed very smooth, and all aspects of the entire crew are progressing smoothly, especially David Fincher, who is the director, is full of inspiration, and after learning the lessons of "Alien 3", this time the new line film company boldly delegated power and let David play freely, which made David particularly active in the crew.

As the leading actor, Brad Pitt's cousin Xiàn has also been praised by the crew, even Hugo, he must objectively say, "Brad really fights." ”

Hugo, as the most mysterious anonymous in the whole movie, only appeared for the first time almost halfway through the movie, but when there was no shooting task in the early stage, Hugo also appeared on the crew all day long. More often than not, he was alone in the corner and crumbling about it, once Andrew found Hugo talking to himself, and walked up to talk, but was frightened by Hugo's blank expression.

The atmosphere that David created throughout the crew was a great help for Hugo to get a closer look at the role of Anonymous, and he was using his own methods to get into the play little by little. Even the chores outside the crew could not affect Hugo in the slightest, and he knew very well how difficult the role of Anonymous was, and the slightest slack would make the role fall short.

This is a real irony. Everyone outside the crew is ridiculing Hugo for playing a big name and being disrespectful, but everyone in the crew can see Hugo's efforts for the crew.

Brad naturally also saw Hugo's efforts, this is a very wonderful process, he can see Hugo every day, he seems to be able to feel a little slight change in Hugo every day, but he can't say why, when he woke up, he suddenly found that Hugo standing in front of him has become anonymous.

Brad realized that when he saw Hugo every day, it was as if Hugo had retracted his momentum little by little. Originally, Hugo habitually wore a shallow smile, and everywhere he went, he looked like a sunny gentleman, and he could easily attract the attention of the people next to him. But now, Hugo is gradually becoming introverted with this temperament.

Brad wasn't sure what was wrong, maybe it was the eyes, maybe the smile, maybe the way he stood or walked, maybe the body language, but he could feel the change in Hugo. It was Hugo who was standing in front of him, but he was not Hugo.

Now Hugo is still smiling, smiling and nodding to people all the time, gentlemanly and polite. But now Hugo is like air, even if he is standing in a corner not far away, no one will pay attention, and sometimes even a large number of people stand together and chat, and after a long time, it will suddenly realize that Hugo is actually there - because Hugo stood there without saying a word, always with a polite and polite smile on his face, but there was no sense of zài.

This process is too magical and vivid, almost the whole process of Hugo's continuous polishing of his acting skills, there are a little changes every day, which means that Hugo is making adjustments every day, he is always looking for the most suitable performance rhythm, the most suitable for the image characteristics of Anonymous.

Although Brad didn't want to admit it, he was really scared by Hugo. Others said that Hugo forgot to sleep and eat for the sake of acting, how he devoted himself seriously, or how he went crazy, Brad felt that it was a lie and a boast. But after really experiencing it, I realized how much effort Hugo put into the performance, and the rumors couldn't convey the hardships and horrors of the whole process.

In the face of tremendous pressure, either give in and retreat, or fight to explode. Brad chose the latter, not only did he not feel decadent, but he was inspired to fight even more, he always knew that Hugo was not an easy opponent to deal with, and he was never afraid.

So, compared to Hugo, who was silently polishing his acting skills, Brad's image of Desperate Saburo slowly spread in the crew.

At this time, Hugo was filming the second scene since he entered the crew, they left Burbank's studio and came to the streets of Los Angeles for closed street shooting, but this scene did not test Hugo's acting skills much, because he, like the first scene, needed to wear a trench coat and a hat to hide his entire face, and it was not yet time to reveal his true identity.

In this scene, Mills played by Brad and Samosey played by Morgan found Anonymous's home, which was originally just an inconspicuous clue, Mills didn't believe that the character pointed to by this clue was the murderer, and Samosey was also a little hesitant, but felt that "since there are no other clues, it's good to verify it". But unexpectedly, it was this clue that did not give any hope but helped them find Anonymous.

Anonymous didn't expect them to find themselves so quickly, so they had no choice but to flee. Shamose, who was too old to keep up with the pace, was left behind, while Mills chased Anonymous all the way. Now it's this chase scene that is being filmed.

The biggest test of Hugo's acting skills in the chase scene is that Anonymous's foot is injured, and he is not good when he runs, but he also runs away in a panic. But the whole scene is very physically draining, because the whole chase scene is divided into three parts, the chase upstairs and downstairs indoors, then the chase on the street, and finally the game of a remote dead end.

The indoor chase scene was filmed for a whole morning, running back and forth at least thirty times, and finally moved from the interior to the street. Since David wanted to create a gloomy and gray image tone, he set the plot in a downpouring weather.

Hugo was the first to appear, he rolled and crawled on the ground in the bustling car array to escape, especially the waterlogged streets continued to slip, creating a lot of trouble for Hugo, and the previous experience of filming "life and death speed" brought him a lot of experience, but even so, Hugo still collided with a stunt car that was about to shoot a series of crashes, fortunately it was not a head-on collision, but just a large layer of skin. It took fourteen runs back and forth to complete the filming of all his parts according to David's requirements.

Then came Brad's chase scene, and since Hugo didn't use a stand-in, Brad also refused the request for a stand-in and went into battle in person. This is not only a contest of acting skills, but also a contest of momentum.

In David's shout of "start shooting", Brad rushed out towards the not turbulent car formation, but the heavy rain caused by the sprinkler truck was majestic, and the vision was almost completely blocked, and as soon as the soles of Brad's feet slipped, the whole person flew out, and at the same time a yellow car slid in front of him.

There was a loud bang, and Brad and the car crashed hard.
