Chapter 1181: Face to face
The filming of the whole scene was very smooth, and Brad, who was engrossed, gave a high-quality performance, especially the scene where he was pointed at gunpoint by Anonymous, and David was very satisfied with Brad's appearance; And Hugo, Morgan and other extras performed without any problems, and it took less than 40 minutes to shoot all the chase scenes.
Forty minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and although it was very fast for the filming progress, it was not good news for Brad's wounds. After David's last "card" shouted, Brad was not only soaked, but his left hand was red with blood again, and the shirt on his chest was red, plus Mills's head was knocked on the head by an anonymous person in the scene just now, and now Brad also has fake blood plasma on his head, which looks not only wolf bèi but also terrifying.
"Brad, we should go to the hospital." The assistant stepped forward and whispered.
Brad tried to stand up, but his feet were weak, and he almost fell directly on both knees, but fortunately the assistant hugged him in time, which avoided the tragedy.
Obviously, Brad has used too much force in this scene, and he still has no way to effectively control his acting skills, which leads him to exceed the limit of his spirit and body, and once he comes out of the role, the whole person will lose his strength. Especially since he's still losing blood.
Two staff members standing not far away immediately stepped forward to help, and together they helped Brad in the direction of his car.
Hugo had just finished his performance when he stood a short distance behind the monitor, watching Brad and Morgan shoot the final part of today's chase scene, and when the filming was over, he and a small crew member applauded and expressed their admiration for Brad.
When Brad passed by Hugo, his eyes were directly locked on Hugo, and his tired eyebrows actually showed a faint smile, and proudly, his eyebrows raised slightly, as if he was provoking Hugo, "My performance is good enough, right?" This really made Hugo cry and laugh.
Just now, Hugo felt that Brad's dedication and focus were admirable, and now he immediately saw Brad's side as always. Of course, Brad is much more mature now than when he first met at the "Big River Love" audition. At least, the current Brad has learned how to hide his edge and rely on strength to speak.
Brad's eyes remained fixed on Hugo until he got into the car and couldn't see Hugo.
Watching Brad's car gradually move away, Hugo did not look away, he and Brad have been head-on competitors since the "River Love" period, and the two have been competing for three years, at the beginning Hugo as an amateur actor, and also participated in the audition for "River Love" with the goal of imitating Brad, but now Hugo has gradually opened up a path of his own acting, but Brad began to chase Hugo's pace behind him.
Hugo has never been afraid of challenges, challenges of any kind. Brad's performance in the first half of the "Seven Deadly Sins" was indeed very good, especially today's desperate Saburo-style dedicated performance is even more impressive, you know, before this, whether it was "Night Vampire" or "Burning Love Years", in fact, Brad's performance was a breath of air, the former was suppressed by Tom Cruise, and the latter was compared to Aidan Quinn, he has never been an actor known for his dedication.
This time in the "Seven Deadly Sins", it was obviously because of Hugo's stimulation that Brad had more potential. Although Hugo wasn't quite sure how David would look after editing the finished product, at least during the filming process, Hugo could sense that this version would be better than the one he had seen before.
However, it also inspired Hugo's fighting spirit. Even putting Brad aside, the role of Anonymous has always made Hugo's blood boil, and Hugo felt the long-lost acting fighting spirit after "Schindler's List"; Now that there is the excitement of his rivals again, Hugo knows very well that the greatest respect for his opponents is his own all-out.
Therefore, Hugo is also ready, ready to show the demeanor of Anonymous played by him.
After Brad went to the hospital for stitches and bandaging, he simply put on a cast, although he didn't have any problems with his bones, but in order to continue filming in a pouring rain environment, the cast was completely isolated from water vapor, which was a good choice.
After his return, Brad was like a hero who had been decorated with a medal, majestic and high-spirited, and he did not perform well in several scenes in a row. It can be seen that Brad is still too young and vigorous - although he is four years older than Hugo, he is already over thirty years old at this time, which is an important reason why Brad can stand out in "Twelve Monkeys", but his performance in "Seven Deadly Sins" is always one breath behind.
His ideas are too direct and simplistic, so that his expression is too stiff, and he relies more on the exaggeration and madness of his limbs to show his feelings, and the delicacy of his eyes and the small movements of his expressions are often not quite right - either too exaggerated or not in place, once the character needs not to be outwardly released but to struggle inside, Brad's performance will seem to be struggling.
However, with a strong opponent on his side, Brad's sanity quickly returned, because he knew that there were not many days left before he and Hugo faced each other. After two days of adjustments, it was back on track.
On this day, the entire crew was excited, because today Anonymous will reveal his true face, and it is also Hugo's first official appearance in the crew, and it is also the official duel between Hugo and Brad.
In fact, compared with ordinary people, insiders are more curious, excited and gossip about the duel between Hugo, Brad and Tom. The so-called gossip is rooted in the entertainment industry itself. Since the filming of "Seven Deadly Sins" began, the crew has been waiting for this day, and the tension between the two people during the previous filming process has also spread in the crew.
To be exact, the crew has been on for a month now, but Hugo and Brad have never talked directly, let alone spent time alone, even if a group of people gathers together, the two people will be separated by a distance, and this tension that can almost rub sparks in the air can be felt by everyone in the crew.
Now, two people are going to be involved in the filming of the same scene, so ...... There hasn't been any previous conversation, can they have a normal conversation? There was no tacit understanding between each other before, can you spark when shooting? The image of Brad's desperate Saburo has spread, but Hugo's sense of existence has gradually disappeared with the advancement of time, what will be the picture of the rivalry between the two people?
This qiē made the crew excited.
When the drama manager called Hugo, Brad and Morgan together to tell the trend of the next scene, some people even couldn't hold back the excitement in their hearts and began to bet on how many times this scene would be ng, and who Hugo and Brad would be ng more! This really made the cold and strict "Seven Deadly Sins" rare and lively.
But the parties don't have the heart to think about these things, because they have to focus all their attention on the next scene. Especially Hugo.
Today's scene was filmed of Anonymous voluntarily sending himself to the door, which obviously surprised everyone, and made Mills and Samosey panic. Although it was only a short confrontation, it was the first time that Anonymous was really exposed in broad daylight, and at the same time, before he knew it, Mills and Samoser also walked into the trap that Anonymous had long been in place. Therefore, this scene is a very severe test for the three actors, especially Hugo and Brad.
After the drama was finished, Hugo pursed his lips and smiled, and nodded politely towards the dramatist, but this action made the dramatist feel creepy and walked away with a ghostly expression. Morgan smiled kindly at Hugo, "We've been looking forward to this scene for a long time, and it's up to you." ”
In fact, Morgan and Hugo did not have many rivalry scenes in the whole movie, but during the filming of the previous month, Hugo often communicated with Morgan, which made Morgan clearly feel Hugo's delicate and profound acting skills. So to be honest, Morgan is also very much looking forward to the first appearance of Anonymous in today's scene.
Hugo still had that restrained and warm smile on his face, and said calmly and slowly, "This is just the beginning, why rush." ”
This is Hugo, but not Hugo. The pace of his speech was obviously much slower than usual, and his tone was much softer, and compared to the usual feeling of sunshine and warmth, Hugo in front of him, although he had a polite smile, gave people a cold feeling of rejection. When the sight came into contact with Hugo, there was a strange feeling of goosebumps.
After saying that, Hugo turned and walked to his place - the police. The entrance of the inspection hall.
At this time, Hugo even changed the pace of walking, each step is not big, relatively only about two-thirds to one-half of the usual, and when he lands, the heel first falls gently, and then the toe slowly steps down, this process is so slow that it seems to be clearly captured by the naked eye, lightly and slowly, just like a cat walking. And his whole back looked cautious when he walked, and his shrunken shoulders even had some shyness.
Morgan looked at Hugo's back and gently tugged at the corners of his mouth, he could feel that Hugo was now entering the play little by little, and the kind of nuanced changes that laymen couldn't say at all, but the overall realism came to his face like this. While others are lamenting Brad's desperateness, Hugo is alone and meticulously carving the character, Morgan doesn't know how much time Hugo spent, it may be far more than a month, but the effect presented is not earth-shattering, but chilling. I have to say that Hugo's acting skills are really admirable.
Morgan glanced back at Brad, who was obviously also a little surprised in confusion, Morgan patted Brad's shoulder, "Let's go, we should be in place too." "This scene was a huge test for Hugo, and even more so for Brad.
