The shooting of the airport scene only lasted for a few days. After finishing the shot of Sarah Michelle Gellar, the crew immediately moved to Los Angeles and started the shooting of the next scene non-stop.

As for Sarah? Michelle? Gellar, the now little-known actress, will play Frank's only true girlfriend or fiancée in the film.

Spielberg's scheduled shooting time for the film was only two months. Since most of the shots were shot on the streets and buildings of the city, the limited space and the tight shooting schedule made everyone feel like they were on the scene. The clockwork is normal, and it runs at a high speed.

The crew prepared more than 140 sets in New York, Los Angeles, Quebec and Montreal where they were filmed. As long as Spielberg gave an order, the props team would dress up the locations in the 1960s in the shortest possible time. .

This is a high-paced shooting, and Ryan has also thoroughly seen Spielberg's Hollywood factory assembly-line shooting style. Every scene and every scene of his script has been carefully calculated by the Jewish old man, and he has delineated a scene. A closely linked lens, which greatly improves the efficiency of shooting, and sometimes even travels three locations a day.

Such an amazing speed not only made the reporter paparazzi who circled around the crew stunned, but even many people in the crew thought it was incredible.

"It was an unprecedented shoot, and it was so fast because the performance of those two men was so shocking, and they were so infrequently seen in my shooting career." An assistant photographer in In an interview with reporters, he once said so.

Yes! After a short period of adjustment, Ryan quickly found the feeling, and he benefited a lot from the in-depth contact with Frank Abagonel himself before shooting, and his speculation about the role was almost raised to a higher level.

Then there is his opponent, a double Oscar winner who is known for his acting skills, if he doesn't inspire all his potential. That will definitely be suppressed in the opponent's play and become a face-sucking male vase.

This is not what Ryan wanted.

In the past, Ryan used to worry about whether he would be disabled in the future. Although this worry is gone now, the troubles about his appearance still exist.

It is definitely not a good thing for an actor to be too handsome. It will add countless obstacles to his acting career. If his acting skills are to be recognized by the vast majority of people, he will have to put in more effort.

Fortunately,

He did not grow into a creampie, handsome and sunny at the same time. Not lacking in toughness and perseverance.

"Cat and Mouse" is about Frank and Carl throughout the film. Among them, Frank is the top priority. There will be plenty of close-ups in the shot, showcasing his wit and dexterity, such a personable and elegant liar, if Ryan isn't in control. Maybe it will become a face show.

The most criticized part of Xiao Li's performance in the previous life is that he is prone to overpowering. Of course, this is what the film critic said. In Ryan's opinion, Xiao Li's performance in it is definitely worthy of praise.

Ryan doesn't try to imitate anyone, he has developed his own style of acting early on, even when necessary. You can totally break your own style.

According to Frank's disguised identity, Ryan not only let the stylist adjust his appearance, but also constantly changed his temperament, sometimes smart, sometimes elegant. Sometimes steady, constantly changing identities between Frank himself, a teacher, a pilot, a doctor, and a lawyer, making each role just right.

"He can always perfectly interpret the roles he plays." Spielberg once sighed to people, "Ryan when he grew up, let us see a better Ryan, not only did his acting skills not regress, but instead Even more refined, and sometimes, even to hold Tom Hanks at a disadvantage."

Ryan's excellent state is due to his own efforts. At the same time, it has a lot to do with Spielberg's control. The Jewish old man maintained the entire crew in a frenetic rhythm, creating the aura and vitality of the actors' performances. This is the foundation of several great directors in Hollywood.

"...Why can't I give you four hundred dollars." The sexy and beautiful blonde took out the bills from her bra, counted four, and handed it to Ryan, who looked like a small open in a suit. "Now it's your turn to give me that check."

"That's better."

Ryan handed over the check and stuffed another four hundred dollars into his pocket, without the slightest sense of guilt for cheating on the woman.

After negotiating the deal, a man and a woman approached each other with a tacit understanding, and the four lips were about to come together.

"cut!"

Spielberg's cry finally sounded, "Okay."

Like a shrinking spring, Ryan instantly retracted his body and opened the distance from Gwyneth Paltrow.

"Am I that scary, Ryan?" Gwyneth laughed suddenly. "I haven't seen you in two years, and I make you feel strange?"

"Come on, Gwyneth, I don't want to be retaliated by an angry cop." Ryan joked, "Brad is watching."

Brad Pitt and Gwyneth Paltrow, the husband-and-wife duo in the film after the filming of The Seven Deadly Sins, became a real couple, and despite the uproar of quarrels between the two, Still in love.

Ryan knew a little about this pair. The investment in "Seven Deadly Sins" came from Jenkins Films, and he recommended Brad Pitt to play the policeman. After the movie box office exceeded 100 million, the other party made a special trip to thank him.

Whether it is the outside media or the friends between the two, Brad Pitt and Gwyneth Paltrow are not optimistic. Silk Paltrow suffers from a serious princess disease that will make those with whom she associates stay away.

Also Spielberg's goddaughter, Gwyneth Paltrow is much less popular than Drew Barrymore's long-sleeved dance. After knowing each other for several years, Ryan is only maintaining a nodding acquaintance. .

"Good evening, Ryan."

Just as he sat back in the lounge area, Brad Pitt came over.

"Hello, Brad." Ryan greeted casually, "Sit."

"Ryan, I heard that the heroine of the big production is still being selected?" Brad Pitt knew a little about Ryan. After sitting down, he went straight to the topic, "Isn't the heroine finalized yet?"

"That's right, Director Cameron is looking for actor candidates." Ryan glanced at Gwyneth Paltrow, vaguely guessing what Pitt was going to say next.

"Gwyneth also sent her information and resume, but she has not replied yet." Brad Pitt scratched his head awkwardly, "This..."

"Sorry, Brad, according to the original agreement, our investor must respect James Cameron's choice of actors." Ryan politely rejected the other party, the reason is very simple, Gwyneth Paltrow completely It does not conform to James Cameron's aesthetics, nor does it conform to the stature of a noble lady in the early 20th century.

Any factors that might lead to the failure of the film will be dismissed by him without hesitation.

Gwyneth Paltrow didn't have many scenes, and she finished filming in just one day. She probably knew that she didn't have enough weight. She never mentioned the role in front of Ryan, but she did tell her godfather. , but was rejected by Spielberg.

Jewish directors are well aware that in the face of a huge investment of more than 200 million US dollars, human feelings can play a very limited role.

After the crew moved to an old neighborhood in Quebec City, they came to Montreal, where an abandoned prison served as the French prison where Argonne was imprisoned, and Ryan became one of the felons and experienced the loss of freedom. .

Between filming, Ryan will also come to Spielberg's side to ask for some knowledge about directing, photography, and production. For whatever reason, Spielberg can be said to know everything.

The "Cat and Mouse Game" that is being filmed is undoubtedly the best example and teaching material. He also told Ryan about the precautions when shooting this film through some of the pictures after the filming.

“It’s a movie with a cheerful theme, so we didn’t use dark lighting and tried to make the movie bright and gorgeous. We needed to shoot in the streets and buildings, and there were bound to be constraints. The camera and lighting equipment are placed in the ideal position, and everything can only be adjusted according to local conditions. Ryan, this fast-paced shooting is a challenge, but directors like this kind of challenge, and only by constantly challenging can you expand your horizons.”

When asked by Ryan about the use of color in the background and costumes, Spielberg explained, "When Frank first appeared in the film, he was just a normal person living in a soft and monotonous environment, but when he The deception was successful time and time again. As he got better, the colors around him became wilder. As he reached his peak, we began to use bright colors such as red, yellow, orange, etc. to show his continuous vitality. ."

For Ryan, it was a new filming experience, more intense and faster than ever, with the crew roaming from location to location like a jet in the sky.

"It's the fastest-paced movie I've ever been in, it's like a big troupe on tour," Ryan said in a phone call to Nicole.

The fast-paced filming made Ryan burst out with all his potential. In several scenes with Tom Hanks, he was no weaker than the weakest. The two men of different ages often won applause.

"Ryan, I think as long as you have the right role, you can compete for the best actor nomination." This is what Tom Hanks said in a small chat.

Just a month and a half later, the "Cat and Mouse" crew returned to Los Angeles, and after the final scene was successfully completed, Spielberg officially announced that the film was closed. ()
