15:40 After our return to the hotel, Jenna and I were showered, had lunch and dressed to go back. Meanwhile a tow truck pulled the car to a gas station, then molosse 3 brought it back after washing it. Now we are on our way to the location of the filming and I watch my screenplay in which I play a girl named Julie whose father was murdered by his neighbor two years ago for a story of ownership of a farm building. Director Edwige Laurendeau would be relatively young and talented, but Terry found very little information about her, except that she made a film that was successful two years ago. The lines I need to remember are not many and the attitude to adopt not so complicated, so I guess it should be fine. I close my eyes and try to remember the small details because I have not watched much lately.

a / Outdoor - day - Near the barn
Music: Off
Sound On: Wind noise
Jean in the Yard - In search of his daughter Anne. - Advance towards Julie. Situation and contrast: Presentation in silence. Jean is angry. Julie repairs her bike.
Angry Jean is positioned behind Julie. "Do you know where my girl is?" Julie startles and stops repairing her bike. She pauses before turning around. She speaks stammering a little. "No sir, I have not seen him since yesterday morning." Jean walks away slowly. Julie watches him go. Jean stops then turns around. Julie looks at him with fear. Jean stops a yard away from Julie. Break Julie and Jean. Julie panics and falls on the buttocks. Jean watches Julie aggressively and threatens Julie. "If you lied to me, I'll come back and you'll end up like your father." Julie kneels down. "I swear to you on my life that I do not know where Anne is. I am very much afraid of you, so if I knew it, I would tell you. I swear. "Jean looks at Julie before turning around. He pauses. He leaves.
That's why I've come a long way? Although I was aware of it, it's still not a lot. Although it's not much, I play and replay this scene in my head, especially the part where I'm on my knees. It should go anyway I am only an extra in the film, a guest at most. The last kilometers to get there are disgusting. We drive through the fields, while the soil is soaked. Molosse 3 would not have had to waste time washing the car just now because of its condition now, everything is already to redo. We see trucks and many cars around three farms forming a V and we stop there. Logically the shooting of the film should be here, I say normally because it is quite difficult to find in the countryside. We go down, go around and we see that the team is actually filming a scene. After "cut" we are a bit angry when we hear.
"That's the other little American star, if I had been asked my opinion, I would have hired a French actress and not an American bitch." The one who just said this sentence out loud putting the whole team and actors present uncomfortable, is none other than the director who looks at me maliciously. I feel that although this shoot is short for me, it will not be very nice. I greet the three main French actors who are close to me which are very friendly, especially the lead actress Mathilde Seigner. She which makes me laugh certainly to make me forget the sentence just pronounced by the director. The other two main actors are Laurent Laffite who is also very nice but less exuberant than her comrad. The last actress, has a year older than me according to the documents I received and she would be a rising young actress of French cinema. I must admit that she is very pretty. Her name is Élisa Durand. Unlike the other two, she is quite shy and does not dare speak to me too much, or maybe she is ok with the director and does not like me. We'll see but I do not have much to fuck because tomorrow morning, we leave for Paris. An unexpected phrase still surprises everyone. "American girl, you play now and then you get out." I had to shoot tomorrow but whatever. I nod and a technician leads me to the dressing room which also serves as a place where we make up.
16:25 A long green and yellow dress a little old fashioned but nothing more. The costumier obeyed the director and remove the vest that I have to wear. I have terribly cold because the wind is very strong here. The farms are located high, without any trees to cut the wind. And action. Let's go. I am positioned near the bike and take the screwdriver to simulate the disassembly of the rear light. I hear steps coming from behind and a voice that terrifies me makes me stop my DIY.
"Do you know where my daughter is?"
"No sir, I have not seen him since yesterday morning."
I hurt my ass, what an idiot. "If you lied to me, I'll come back and you'll end up like your father."
"I swear to you on my life that I do not know where Anne is. I am very much afraid of you, so if I knew it, I would tell you. I swear."
"Cut."
Some surprising little words are yelled angrily on the site. "You are crappy. My dog play better than you, the American girl. Play better than that or go back to your country and do not bother the french professionals. We go back.
You will not be able to make me leave here bitch, nor get me angry. I'll stay until you're tired of me. "Yes director."
"action"
"Do you know where my daughter is?"
"No sir, I have not seen him since yesterday morning."
"If you lied to me, I'll come back and you'll end up like your father."
"I swear to you on my life that I do not know where Anne is. I am very much afraid of you, so if I knew it, I would tell you. I swear."
"Cut"
She continues. "What are you doing to us, kind of bitchy? You came to show us your beautiful little face or to prove to us that you are an actress. If that's the second option, forget it, you're nothing more than a physical without talent."
Stop it or I'm going to laugh. "Yes Madam."
Oh she is very angry. "you pay my face little bitch? do you want me to disfigure you?"
Oh thanks Terry. "Director Laurendeau, one more word and you will not have enough of your life to regret this day."
"I do not care what you say little cocksucker of American badly fucked. You and your bitch are not welcome in my movie, so get out of here."
Molosse 1 starts to growl. I had already noticed that he was a patriot so these few words made him angry. Terry too is very angry. "Lisa release this bike and we're leaving."
I do not want me. I want to see her crack this slut. "But I want to play my Terry scene."
"Lisa, I'm telling you we're leaving, so go change you now."
I nod and return to put on my own dress and am happy to put on my pretty jacket. Ahhhh, everyone is screaming at me today. Before leaving, I greet the actors who are sorry for me and seem to feel guilty. But they are not guilty of anything and it is not because they are French that I will blame them. I met a lot of French and this is the first time that I have been treated this way. Racism, yes it must be a racist women who does not love us. The role of Julie was free, it is the producer and the scriptwriter who wanted me to play in it but now, it is she who is in charge and if she does not wish to see me in this film, then too bad. I can meet the one who gives me half of my clothes in advance and make a prettiest photo shoot to thank him. For me it was the most important thing, while coming to France.
16:45 We are in the car and finally have network. Terry is right now with the producer of the film and does not hold his anger by telling him what just happened and all the insults that the director uttered on me. Stop worrying like that Terry or you're going to have white hair. The insults of this ugly woman, did not anger me at all so do not worry too much about it. But I have trouble understanding. If a Japanese had insulted me, I will understand because our two countries have not always been on good terms. There are also some tensions with China, which if we only talk politics is the opposite of ours historically. But why would a woman from a country that has always been our ally hate Americans? Why, why, why ...
"I found." She was thrown by a guy from Philadelphia? Yes that must be it. With his fart face, an American, a Canadian or even a European would swing this trash like a underpants stained. Yes this director is a underpants stained that a smart American man has thrown to the toilet."
"Lisa, have you finished telling bullshit when I'm on the phone talking about very important things?"
"Sorry Terry, but I found the solution to his anti-American racism. You should congratulate me instead of shouting at me. "
"Lisa shut up."
Until Bordeaux, I shut up, I sulk and I swear not to reveal the truth of the anti-American racism of this ugly woman like a bunch of old to Terry.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
