Chapter 121 Always so painful

"Nate..."

Mrs. Xie Li pushed the door and walked in. Seeing the young man and woman close together, she frowned and reminded, "Nate, you should go to make up."

"Okay, mom, I'll go now." Natalie jumped out of the room while stroking the pendant between her neck, and the depression of the previous few days disappeared without a trace.

He looked at Mrs. Shelley with a little guilty look, and Ryan followed her quietly, well... Fortunately, he just looked a little closer with Natalie, otherwise he might have been prosecuted to molest the girl.

He subconsciously ignored it again, he was just a handsome man.

In the temporary dressing room, the makeup artist smeared Natalie's face. In just a moment, there were a lot of scars on the girl's angular face, blue and purple, which was so pitiful.

At this time, there were voices and footsteps outside, and then a blonde woman led another little boy in.

The little guy looks seven or eight years old at most, with a short blonde hair covering his head softly. His distinctive facial features are a little Jewish, but he lacks the toughness of a boy and the smoothness of a girl.

There is only one character in the script who meets this age, probably Matilda's younger brother. Ryan looked him up and down and suddenly felt a sense of incongruity. Could it be that there was a fake girl in this era? This little guy is a little bit angry, right?

"Hello, Mrs. Melanie." Obviously, Natalie was very familiar with them.

"Hello, Nat."

The answer was that little guy. These soft words fell into Ryan's ears and made him curl up. What was Luc Besson doing? He chose such a person to play Matilda's younger brother?

Well, it doesn't matter, Matilda's younger brother doesn't have a few shots in total, and there is not even a single line.

Then, Ryan saw the blonde woman who was intimately talking to Julis Stewart and guessed what was going on. The other party seemed to be Julis' acquaintance and got the role for his son based on his relationship.

This is normal. In Hollywood, actors introduced by acquaintances and celebrities in the circle have inherent advantages.

"Ryan, this is Ms. Melanie Sloan, a famous producer in New York." Julis led the blonde to him, and Ryan stood up and shook hands with the other party. "I'm glad to know you, Ms. Sloan."

"Hello, Ryan, it's great to know you."

Ryan roughly observed that this woman was obviously also a Jewish person.

"That's right, Ryan." Julis said at this time, "We lack capable producers here. I want to invite Melanie to join Jenkins Pictures."

"This..." Ryan scratched his head, "Just make an idea with Patt."

After the two left, Ryan sat aside safely and did not bother others. He saw Natalie and the little guy chatting intimately, as if they had a common topic.

It turned out to be a person in the circle! Ryan shook his head. It was not very obvious now, but after entering the new century, more and more new stars in Hollywood came from a family of performers.

Especially with the emergence of large productions, rashly opening newcomers without foundations means huge risks. When most investments are thrown to special effects and there is not enough funds to invite big-name stars, the production company will naturally focus on the descendants of Hollywood stars and their relatives. The inherent advantages and the hype that can be constantly hyped makes many producers enjoy it.

“cut!”

Luc Besson sighed, but he still couldn't get it out if he had a temper. Who made him just an eight-year-old child?

Besides, he performed well yesterday, and today's shot is indeed a bit difficult. After all, you can't ask every child to be a performance genius like Ryan Jenkins or Natalie Portman, right?

"Mom, did I make a mistake again?" The little guy's voice was soft and glutinous, and he sounded like a little sissy.

"Madam Melanie, can you tell me?" Natalie walked over and comforted her for a few words. The little guy's expression that seemed to be about to cry gradually disappeared.

"Scared! Do you understand, it's just trembling with fear, such as..." Natalie scratched her bob, "It's like in the dark night, you're alone in a room..."

"It's still thunder and raining outside, and mom and dad are not at home?" The little guy was very smart and immediately understood what Natalie said.

"Yes, that's what it feels like."

"Okay, I think I know what to do, Nat."

Perhaps Natalie's words really played a role, or perhaps it was because the few shots were not particularly difficult. In the next more than an hour, he completed all his own shots.

"Rest for half an hour!" At the command of Luc Besson, the crew dispersed.

"Nat, don't you introduce your new friend?" Ryan looked at the little guy Natalie was holding while walking, "Can you tell me your name, this little gentleman?"

"Gentleman?" Natalie rolled her eyes.

"Nate, is this the stupid guy you are talking about? But...but...he is Ryan!"

"Dear, he treats you as a boy. Isn't it stupid?" Natalie said for granted.

"Boy...boy? I...I am a girl."

Girl? Ryan felt a crow flying over his head. Who came up with the bad idea to let a girl play Matilda's younger brother!

After rolling his eyes and looking at the little guy again, Ryan sighed. Children of this age cut their hair short and it was really difficult to tell a man and a woman from their appearance. No wonder they felt that the other person had a malice temperament. It turned out that they were girls.

"Okay, this little lady, can you tell me your name?" Ryan showed a kind smile.

"Don't tell him." Natalie raised her eyebrows.

"You... Hello, Ryan." Obviously, Natalie miscalculated Ryan's influence among teenagers. "I'm Scarlett Johnson, you can call me Scarlett..."

"Ska, you are a little traitor!" Natalie snorted dissatisfied.

Scarlett Johnson Ryan's eyes swept across the other person's face. Will this cute little guy be the black guy from his previous life? He doesn't look like him at all.

Even if it is nothing strange, Ryan has long been used to seeing all kinds of unfamous stars, and he doesn't find it strange.

Although the little guy had a good impression of him, at this age, there were more common topics between girls and girls. After saying a few words, Ryan felt bored and simply walked aside and sat down quietly.

After Jean Renault arrived, the crew moved to the stairwell outside the apartment and began filming the scene of Leon and Matilda.

"Scene 5, Scene 11, filming is now started!"

Taking the windbreaker pocket, Leon's tall figure turned the stairs and entered the stairwell. He looked at Matilda leaning on the guardrail. The little girl turned her body, holding the guardrail with one hand and pursing her nose with the other, and making a low sob.

After looking up, he found that there was no one around, Leon took out a snow-white handkerchief from his trench coat's pocket and handed it over silently.

It seemed that she didn't expect this silent man to do this. Matilda hesitated a little, and finally took the handkerchief and wiped the blood from her nose. She stared at Leon with her big eyes, full of hope, "Life is always so painful, or is it only like this in childhood?"

Her big eyes didn't blink, as if the other person's words were all her hope.

"It's always so painful!" The tall man was silent for a while and gave such an answer.

The spirit in Matilda's eyes instantly dissipated, and despair gradually appeared in her already painful eyes. The big eyes closed for a moment, as if the whole world had abandoned her.

"Stay." Leon turned around and left.

"I'm going to buy something at the grocery store. Do you want me to buy some milk for you?" Matilda asked, grabbing the guardrail and shaking her body, "One or two? Two? Right?"

Seeing the tall man nodding slowly, Matilda showed a happy smile and jumped down the stairs.

Leon was still silent and walked back to his room slowly and steadily.

"It's past!"

After hearing Luc Besson's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. After NG for nearly ten times, whether it was Jean Renault or Natalie, this performance can only be described as perfect.

Ryan sighed. There is never a shortage of geniuses in this world. The girl opposite is definitely an absolute genius in her performance! All the keys of this shot are almost entirely focused on Matilda. In his imagination, even if Natalie doesn't NG dozens of times, it may be difficult to complete this one of the most classic shots of her Girls' Generation.

Unexpectedly, after only NG less than ten times, she grasped Matilda's despair and pain. Perhaps she was born for Matilda, or perhaps it was because of her that Matilda could become a classic.

In terms of acting skills alone, I am indeed a little better now, but what about a few years later? Ryan is very clear that without the accumulation of the previous life and the blessings of a great god when he was reborn in this life, he and her are not at the same level.

There is a saying in "Social Network" in his previous life, "Harvard University has produced 15 Pulitzer Prize winners, 2 Olympians, and one movie star."

This movie star is naturally Natalie Portman. To be honest, her life is a game of constantly fighting monsters and upgrading, and a movie is world-famous...

The one he in his previous life had been suspected for a while. Before leaving this copy of his life, Natalie must have gotten the invincible golden finger, and her career, academic, and love are all right...

Well, if I have the chance in the future, I will definitely water the Frenchman into a cement pier and throw it into the mouth of the Hudson River! Ryan said in his heart.
