Chapter two hundred and nine boot(2/2)

Ronald recognized that it was Tom Mount, the president of Universal, and felt inconvenienced. How could a president condescend to come to the set on the first day of filming? Is he so impatient? He also didn’t understand the rules of the set and shouted loudly before filming started.

Talking destroys the actor's emotional preparation.

"Good evening, Mr. Mount." Ronald was about to hug him.

Mount stretched out his hand to shake his hand. Ronald quickly changed his posture and shook his hand, maintaining the appearance of kindness.

"I happen to be free, and Heikelin and I came over to check on the crew." Mount took the initiative to explain.

"Okay, please bring a chair to Mr. Mount." Ronald asked the assistant director Al, then grabbed him and said in his ear, "Go to Cameron Crowe and ask him to find out what's going on."

Something happened."

Jennifer and Phoebe re-adjusted their emotions, and the lights were in place. After communicating with the director of photography, Matthew, they thought it was okay to start shooting, and announced the start of the first shot of this scene.

The camera was positioned behind Phoebe Cates. It was an over-the-shoulder shot, focusing on Jennifer and filming their conversation.

"Do you think he's handsome?" Stacy said to Linda.

"Don't you think he looks like Richard Gere? Look at that sexy little butt." Stacey replied.

"Do you want to serve his table instead of me?" Stacey was a little shy, wanting to strike up a conversation but afraid of being rejected.

"What are you waiting for? If I didn't have a wonderful boyfriend in Chicago, I would have done it myself." Linda encouraged, "Go ahead, just give her an order."

"After ordering, look him in the eyes, and then whenever he tells any joke, pretend it is the funniest joke in the world, laugh loudly for him... Well, and don't forget to smile."

"Hehehe..." Stacey smiled, still a little nervous.

Linda arranged her clothes and hairstyle and asked her to go over.

"cut!"

Ronald thought it was great. Even though Jennifer was already 19, she was very good at playing a 15-year-old girl. She expressed the emotion of being shy but wanting to meet a handsome guy very well.

Phoebe Cates completely listened to her instructions and told Linda a lot of pick-up experiences and on-the-spot guidance. The way she spoke was as if she was telling a great story, which was very convincing.

"Matthew?" Ronald asked the director of photography.

"Okay." Matthew asked the operator who was holding the camera, and there was no problem in the whole process.

"Let's do this print again." Ronald ordered, preparing to change the angle after finishing the shooting and take another set of over-the-shoulder shots, this time aimed at Phoebe.

"Wait a minute, don't you think Phoebe has a little emotional problem?"

A harsh voice came over, and everyone in the crew shuddered and looked over.

It's associate producer Amy Heckerling.

"I'm not interfering with your ideas, director, but there is a place to discuss." Heikelin lowered his voice and walked over to talk to Ronald.

The whole crew swiped again and focused their attention on Ronald.

"I think Linda's tone here seems to be telling someone else's story. I think this should be a more mature Linda, like Stacey who doesn't have a boyfriend yet, imparting her own experience, so she should start from her own experience.

Said, there should be a sweetness that reminds me of my boyfriend."

Heckerling talked eloquently.

Tom Mount also sat up from his chair, pretending to be listening intently.

"What do you think? What do you think?" Ronald did not discuss with him matter-of-factly how Phoebe Cates should act, but questioned that she should not challenge her authority on the set.

"I think we should give it a try. What Heklin said makes sense. Why don't we shoot one according to her idea and make a decision when we look at the samples tomorrow?" Mount spoke up and put forward his own "suggestion."

"Why don't you come up with one yourself?" Ronald gestured to the assistant director Al and let Heckerling tell the scene, while he gave up his position.

Because he saw Crowe standing outside the crowd and winking at him, as if he had some news.

Heckerling began to tell Phoebe and Jennifer about the scene. The staff and actors looked at each other, wondering what was going on. Who was listening to?

Ronald took two steps back to the outside of the circle. Cameron Crowe came over and said, "I called Lin Sen's assistant. Spielberg's box office statistics for last weekend were calculated. 'The Lost Ark of the Covenant' was released again."

Reached the top.

Sheinberg went to ET's studio to celebrate his success. Mount initially did not agree to shoot ET, but now he is a little passive and wants to do something to restore the impact."

"So you come to me to find confidence?" Ronald thought to himself.

"But Spielberg went to celebrate? He won't come today, right?" I even reminded Spielberg's assistant Catherine during the day.
