Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 550 Misunderstanding

On the surface, the filming set of "Sherlock Holmes" is no different from the sets of other movies -

It was still shot under the watchful eyes of a group of behind-the-scenes personnel, and the scenery on the scene was still partly fake.

However, from Nicole's point of view, it feels completely different——

First of all, the set of the crew is very atmospheric. Even though there are many extra props, the overall look is very impressive.

At least, this "221B Baker Street" really feels a bit like Holmes and Watson's apartment in Nicole's opinion.

——Nicole went to the real 221B Baker Street, which was the Sherlock Holmes Museum that was later built, and it didn’t feel so obvious.

Secondly, it is very quiet when shooting.

This line of quietness is not physical, but psychological.

In fact, during the filming of any movie, as long as the director does not call to stop, no one except the actors who are filming is allowed to speak.

But not speaking doesn't mean they won't pay attention and think, which will eventually have an impact.

Although one of the basic qualities of an actor is to be able to ignore this kind of attention, or to perform like no one else under the attention of everyone, the atmosphere of the shooting scene will not be like that in the movie story.

However, the filming scene of "Detective Sherlock Holmes" was different——

While filming, Nicole felt that not only the voices of the nearby staff members, but also their breathing and thoughts seemed to be held.

At the beginning of the filming, everyone except the actors who were filming seemed to be as thin as air.

Everyone was watching the performance attentively, as if that was what was really happening.

Even Nicole herself, watching the filming on set, couldn't help but get caught up in it.

This is not because of the realistic acting of the actors or anything.

——Although Robert Downey Jr.’s acting skills are good, Nicole doesn’t think he is so infectious.

As for Jude Law?

Well, this British man is indeed very good looking.

Although it may not be as good as Tom Cruise's heyday, it's not too far off.

Moreover, he and Tom are not the same type——

Mr. Cruise, who is in the midst of a divorce battle with Nicole, is a very sunny handsome man, while Jude Law has a bit of British melancholy, and seems to be more suitable as a lover...

In short, apart from his looks and temperament, Nicole Kidman doesn’t think Jude Law’s acting skills are very strong…

It has nothing to do with the actors' performances. There seems to be an invisible, yet surprisingly contagious aura on the entire "Sherlock Holmes" set. As long as everyone is in it, they will unconsciously be involved in the story.

In particular, director Charlotte Booth will occasionally tell the actors about the play or simply read the script before filming, and with his infectious voice, Nicole will unconsciously be immersed in Sherlock Holmes and the story. Watson's story.

"Is this the aura of the legendary great director?"

——Nicole, who couldn’t figure it out, could only guess this way.

In fact, Nicole had a similar feeling when working with legendary director Stanley Kubrick on "Eyes Wide Shut."

However, that feeling was not as obvious as it is now. It only appeared occasionally, if not at all.

Moreover, because the connotations of Kubrick's movies have always been obscure, even if Nicole occasionally immersed herself in them, it would be difficult to understand their meaning.

On the contrary, it made me feel bad and gloomy.

——She would completely fall out with her husband Tom Cruise during the filming of "Eyes Wide Shut". In addition to the conflict between the two being difficult to reconcile, the influence of the movie or Kubrick's aura is actually also a factor.

Of course, before coming to the set of "Sherlock Holmes", Nicole had a very vague feeling about this.

But after comparing it with Charlotte's aura, Nicole clearly felt this.

On the other hand, it was precisely because of working with Kubrick, especially Kubrick who had explored very deep areas in the field of directing before his death, that Nicole realized that the aura of director Sherlock existed on the set. .

Most of the other actors, even veteran actors like Robert Downey Jr. and even Jodie Foster, just feel that under Charlotte's guidance, their acting skills will be 200% utilized.

——They are not aware of the reason.

This is not a matter of acting level or ability, it is simply a matter of not having seen it before——

After all, apart from Charlotte and Stanley Kubrick in his later years, Nicole doesn't know any other director who has such a unique aura.

And there are not many actors who have worked with Kubrick, who became more and more metaphysical in his later years.

What's more, even if they had collaborated, if Nicole hadn't been psychologically delicate, and had a deep understanding of this precisely because of the conflict with her husband, Tom Cruise, she wouldn't have been able to feel Kubrick's subtlety. No aura.

——Like Tom, who has relatively thick lines, Nicole doesn’t think he can feel Kubrick’s unique aura.

——Even though he is a true believer in Kubrick and a complete fanboy.

And if she hadn’t experienced Kubrick’s unique aura, Nicole wouldn’t be able to feel the existence of Charlotte’s similar aura.

"I wonder what it would be like to act in such an aura?"

As an aspiring actress, Nicole is eager to try.

But on the other hand, considering that the impression left on her by the last aura director Kubrick was not entirely positive, Nicole felt a little uneasy...

*********

Charlotte didn't know that Nicole Kidman had misunderstood by chance and praised him to the level of Stanley Kubrick, and also imagined the existence of a "great director's aura" .

In fact, Nicole's so-called "aura" is to a greater extent the resonance between dreams and soul caused by Charlotte's spell——

After experiments during the filming of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and The Mummy, Charlotte has discovered that it is possible to link the subconscious minds of actors in dreams.

After linking them, it can create a certain degree of empathy between the people being linked, thereby creating more resonance with the content of a story.

Specific to the filming process, it's just that the linked actors have a better tacit understanding, have a deeper understanding of the characters in the story, and perform better.

However, unlike the young actors under the age of 10 in "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone," the adult actors cannot enter the dream world for long.

What's more, weaving dreams for a group of actors every night for a period of time is actually a very troublesome job.

When "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" was filmed, it was thanks to the help of Charlize and Jodie Foster. If she did this every time she made a movie, Charlotte would be a little overwhelmed.

Therefore, after pondering for a long time, he developed a relatively simple but more ingenious method——
