American fame and fortune

Morning, Buckinghamshire Police Station.

Martin and Leonardo sat in the hall, waiting for the lawyer to go through the relevant procedures.

The latter held a copy of The Sun in his hand, and said, "Jack and Meryl made the headlines, ran into Pinewood Studios at night, and were complained by actors from multiple crews..."

Martin held the same newspaper in his hand: "Looking at the second page, Bell was accidentally injured on the set and was temporarily admitted to the hospital. Cate Blanchett appeared in the same hospital."

Leonardo thought of the two people he saw yesterday, and asked, "Will it hurt there?"

"Who knows." Martin put away the newspaper and said, "The old bastard is so loyal that he didn't reveal that it was related to us."

Leonardo put away his smile: "Jack is notorious, why are you and I willing to hang out with Jack? Although he is a bastard, he is a loyal bastard. He never distinguishes between right and wrong, only close and distant .Even today, he never said a bad word about his old friend Polanski."

Martin pointed to the front: "Come out."

Accompanied by a lawyer, Nicholson and Meryl came together.

Seeing the two bastards, he didn't have a good word: "It's all your fault!"

Martin did not refute, but instead asked, "Are you happy?"

Nicholson laughed when he thought of the wild mandarin ducks that came out of the bombing last night: "It's so cool, you didn't see how embarrassing those idiots ran out without putting on their pants."

In contrast, Meryl is much more serious, she looks like an elegant lady in front of people.

A group of people walked out, Leonardo said: "You count your loyalty."

Nicholson said, "I'm dragging you two in, and if something happens, who's going to bail me out?"

At the door, Martin reminded, "There are reporters outside."

Nicholson and Meryl left the gate of the police station together without changing their expressions.

A lot of paparazzi gathered near the door, and the four of them got into the same car without looking at them.

Martin shook the newspaper in his hand, and deliberately said to Nicholson, "The two idiots who followed you yesterday are in the hospital."

Before Nicholson could answer, Meryl turned her head and asked, "Jack said that you found Blanchett's bitch yesterday and followed me with Bell?"

Martin's words were meant to attract her attention: "Yeah, so we fired a cannon over there." He handed the Sun newspaper in his hand to Meryl: "The sun's lace scandal is more important than the Washington Post and the New York Times's politics. News is a hundred times more reliable."

Meryl took it over, saw the news about Bell and Blanchett, and cursed coldly: "Damn bitch!"

Leonardo didn't think it was a big deal, he just thought it was a small one, and said, "Blanchet and Bell treat you as a sex booster."

Meryl didn't answer the question, but just said: "I don't care about the two of you, I will write it off."

Martin's words were very proficient, and he said it naturally: "Someday I will treat you...and Jack to drink, and bring some more friends out."

Leonardo understood: "There are very beautiful actresses on the crew of "Mamma Mia?"

Nicholson had a great time last night, and at this time he was particularly generous: "I'd better treat the guests, and wait until another weekend, I will invite Meryl and her friends from the crew to have a drink together."

Martin said, "No problem."

Meryl thought for a while, then nodded: "Yes."

…………

Pinewood Studios, The Prestige Crew.

The original shooting plan had to be revised.

Nolan sat on the director's seat, frowning: "How is Christian Bale?"

Emma Thomas brought a water glass and handed it to her husband: "I just called and asked, and there is nothing wrong with my leg, it's just a pure cramp. The trouble is under him."

Nolan knew what had happened, and couldn't help worrying: "It hurts badly?"

Emma Thomas thought about the wording, and said: "The sponge is slightly torn, and there is a mild subcutaneous hematoma. Fortunately, it is not very serious. There is no need for surgery. It will be fine after a few weeks of rest."

Nolan nodded: "We can only adjust all the scenes with him."

"Turn it back for now." Emma Thomas shook her head straight, and had some opinions on Bell: "Trailers, hotels, and even studios, there are so many places I don't want to go, I have to go to the woods with Blanchett..."

Nolan was a little worried: "Who did it? Did someone target our crew?

Emma Thomas has already asked clearly: "Probably not, Bell and the others were disturbed in the afternoon, and the person who caused the trouble went again at night, and was seen by many people. It was Jack Nicholson and Meryl Sterry. Two people."

She was quite helpless: "Nicholson is a rotten person, he just thought it was fun to make troubles, and the people from the Harry Potter crew next door were also frightened, at least a dozen people were chasing him and Meryl Stowe last night." Rip, someone called the police, but Leonard bailed him out this morning."

Nolan also heard Nicholson's notoriety: "The old bastard!"

Emma Thomas considered the reality: "You have thoughts about the Oscars. This matter is over. We are not the ones who were injured, and the overall impact on the crew is not very big. Nicholson is old, has many friends, and has a certain reputation in the academy. Influence, this kind of person may not be able to accomplish anything, but it is easy to destroy a thing."

Nolan listened to his wife's words and said, "Call Bell and express your concern."

"I'm going to visit him in the hospital, and I can't miss the gesture I should have." Emma Thomas handled these chores much better than Nolan.

…………

After sending Meryl to the studio, the three idlers wandered around London for half a day, and found a bar to drink.

Nicholson drank a glass of whiskey, and his bad ideas surged up with the strength of the drink: "I just called to ask, Bell was hospitalized, and the sponge was torn. It's too pitiful. Let's go to the hospital to visit him together tomorrow?"

Martin picked up the wine bottle, poured wine for the three of them, and said, "Be human, don't be a demon in human skin, okay?"

Nicholson said: "You and Leo are the ones who did it!"

Leonardo said, "Isn't it just to help you?"

Hearing this, Nicholson's nose almost twisted: "I really want to thank you very much!"

Martin grabbed Nicholson's shoulders: "We are best friends, and we don't need you to thank you too much." He said seriously: "Well, if you do something for me next year, just cooperate with me. Today we will help you It's over for you."

Nicholson said: "According to what you said, I was frightened by you, so I still need to thank you?"

Martin was surprised: "Didn't you just say thank you? We helped you get rid of the peepers! Think about it, Belle and Blanchett use you and Meryl as Indian magic oil, and they bring a camera or video camera , you are in danger, and the whole world will spread the word..."

He pondered for a while: "Song Linmen, Oscar winner and actress, think about how fast it will spread!"

Leonardo nearly burst out laughing.

Nicholson was very helpless: "It's a little thing that makes you exaggerate to such an extent. I'm really old. It's time to step aside."

The three of them were giggling, drinking and chatting, very happy.

A man can have a good time without a woman.

Of course, life is better with beautiful ladies.

Martin received a call from Kate Winslet, about to leave early.

"You can go." Nicholson hiccupped and said, "Martin, I want to tell you good news. I kept a batch of the shells you gave me yesterday. If you were in the parking lot, I and Leo is going to fire you a cannon."

Leonardo also drank a lot, patted Martin on the shoulder, and said: "I have been good friends with Kate for ten years, and I don't have any other requirements. Treat her better, don't use you to deal with Heidi-K The rough ways of the likes of Loum, Angela Lindwall and KK, be gentle."

Martin pushed Leonardo away: "What nonsense, Kate asked me to get familiar with and rehearse a few scenes, a serious job."

Leonardo shook his head, but stopped talking.

When Martin left the bar, Nicholson asked, "What's going on?"

Leonardo said vaguely: "Just two days ago when I arrived in London, Kate called me and discussed with me about some special scenes. She felt that with field experience, the performance would be better."

Nicholson agreed: "You're absolutely right!"

Leonardo asked curiously: "Have you actually experienced it during the shooting?"

Nicholson looked disdainful: "The ones you play are all leftovers from our play. Think about Malone's buttery hands back then. Who would dare to use them now?"

Leonardo bowed down.

When it was dark, Martin hurried back to the hotel.

Because he was going to rehearse with Kate later, he went to the bathroom to take a shower, washed off the smell of alcohol, brushed his teeth by the way, and changed into dry new clothes.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, there was a knock on the door, Martin went to open the door, and the person outside was Kate Winslet.

He let the door open: "Kate, please come in."

Kate entered the room with the script and said, "I came to bother you after work."

Martin went to get her bottled water: "Stop talking politely between us."

"Then let's get to the point." Kate sat on the single sofa and said directly: "The delayed scene is the most important part of sublimating the emotional relationship between the hero and heroine. If the shooting effect is not good, it may affect the entire film."

Martin understands: "I understand that there is a process of transformation from physical attraction to emotional outburst."

Kate was silent for a moment, and then said: "For this project and role, I have been preparing for two years. Martin, you know how eager I am for the Best Actress Oscar."

Martin nodded: "You are better than all the leading actresses in the Oscars."

Kate stood up and took off her coat: "I have no way to retreat, and I don't want to retreat, you will help me, right?"

Martin owes Kate a favor he can't refuse: "Yes!"

"I asked Leo and discussed it with Sam." Kate walked towards Martin: "They all told me that field experience is the best solution."

She said: "Remember the rumor I mentioned about Nicole Kidman in Eyes Wide Shut? It is said that Kubrick used real shots from the actual experience."

The top actors are often acting lunatics, and Kate seems to have entered this state.
