"Sorry, I'm late." Hugo entered the police. The police station politely apologized to the staff around who were ready. At this time, the police. In addition to the staff, at least 30 people gathered at the entrance of the police station and in specific areas inside. Everyone had a camera and a voice recorder in their hands. Obviously they were all reporters and were preparing to record. Work on the set today.

The entire crew is ready, and only Hugo is left alone, so when Hugo came in, everyone stood up one after another and started to work. Looking at the familiar equipment around, such as cameras, radio microphones, monitors, moving tracks, lighting panels, microphone cables, etc., they are arranged in an orderly manner to alert the strangers. The police station was decorated to become familiar to Hugo, but those faces, strange or familiar, were doing the work that Hugo had long been accustomed to. The whole environment and atmosphere made Hugo a little nervous.

Near nostalgia, it is probably Hugo at this moment.

Hugo quickly retracted his gaze and walked towards Curtis and others who were chatting, "Sorry, I'm really sorry." It is really not a good thing to let the whole crew wait for him.

Curtis and others all know that this has nothing to do with Hugo himself. There are too many trivial matters this morning. If Hugo had not just rejected David’s request for trivial matters, it is estimated that Hugo would not be able to come over now. Filming. Curtis said politely, "We should be happy about the efficiency of the on-site staff. We started shooting on time. The actor became the target only thirty seconds late. This is a good thing."

This made everyone chuckle. Hugo looked at Kevin, Russell, Charlize and others who were sitting next to them. With the exception of Charlize, who started on the third day of the crew’s launch, the other major actors were all about to start filming on the first day, including Heath Ledger.

"We are waiting for you to begin." Kevin said in a deep voice, with a hint of joking in the magnetic voice, "I hope you can create a good start for the crew. You know, everyone is looking forward to seeing it with their own eyes. Hugo's live performance was wonderful."

Facing Kevin's ridicule, Hugo shuddered deliberately, pretending to be afraid, "Broadway challenge? God, my feet are frozen into ice." It means shrinking.

Everyone chuckled, but Hugo looked around and went straight to the drama, and said proficiently, "So, what's the matter with my first scene?"

The dramatist had already stood aside with the storyboard of the script. Seeing Hugo coming over, he quickly explained to Hugo the details of the pattern, shots, positioning, and lines of the first scene. Hugo raised his head, while listening, he began to look at the whole scene of the scene with his eyes, trying to construct a three-dimensional scene in his brain and bring himself into it.

This is a part of the work that Hugo is familiar with. The familiarity that has deepened into the bones is awakened little by little, and the tight muscles have begun to relax little by little. Gradually, Hugo even forgets that this is "L.A." The first scene of "Confidential", I also forgot that it was his first scene in eighteen months, as if he had never left the set-he had never left this stage.

"Hello, I am Hugo." After finishing the production, Hugo immediately extended his right hand to his two opponent actors.

"I'm Bob" and "I'm Lannie", the two actors also stretched out their hands quickly and shook hands to express friendship. Hugo immediately asked, "So, do we need to rehearse again?"

Bob and Lanney seem to be at a loss. Obviously, they didn't expect Hugo to be so approachable, and it looks like he doesn't have the power of a big name. The two did not answer, and Hugo did not speak. He just looked at them with questioning eyes. Finally, the dramatist standing next came out to relieve the siege, "Or else, pass the lines again? At least know the rhythm of the performance." Nodding in agreement.

Seeing this scene, Hugo couldn't help but laughed, "Don't worry, I'm not a real serial killer, you don't need to worry about your life." One sentence made Bob and Lannie laugh.

In this scene, Bob will play the interview policeman. A reporter on duty at the police station on Christmas Eve, while Lanny will play the cameraman. Both actors are older than Hugo, but they are only small supporting roles in this movie, and they don't even have their own names in the script. Fortunately, they all have lines.

Samora walked over quickly, and handed the script to Hugo. It highlighted Hugo's lines with a highlight, and there were some essays written next to it, which are some of Hugo's thoughts in reading the script. Hugo checked the lines with the two actors, but found that the effect was mediocre, because both actors were a little nervous-facing a famous actor like Hugo, it is not easy to maintain a peaceful mind.

After four rehearsals, they finally found the feeling. So Hugo gave the crew a look, and the whole crew was like a sophisticated machine, starting to run at high speed-the two photographers immediately stepped forward and asked Hugo and the two actors to take their place. , And then started lighting, matching the angle and trajectory of the camera, confirming the use of the light, and Curtis stood three steps away, conceiving the entire picture structure.

The reporters standing by and watching began to commotion slightly. They did not make any noise, but one by one craned their necks to try to observe Hugo's situation at this time. Even senior reporters like Nicholas are inevitable. . In fact, even Kevin, Russell, Heath and others all cheered up and wondered how Hugo would perform in the first scene.

The reason why it attracted the attention of the actors is because in the script of "L.A. Confidential", the four main characters basically use a short plot to shape their personalities as soon as they appear on the scene. How to make the characters' personalities vivid and vivid It is very important to shape it alive in a limited time and to completely coherent the character's personality in the subsequent plot. This is also a huge test for the actor.

All actors know that it is relatively easy to use a flash point to show a character's personality-such as crying, screaming, madness, sadness, etc.-many actors can do it; but without any flash point , I want to outline a character's personality between every smile and every action, but what I need is deep background and rich experience, preferably a little amazing talent, this is a very difficult challenge.

Not only Hugo, but Kevin, Russell, Charlize, etc., are all carefully pondering. No one can relax easily.

Hugo is not only shooting Ed Asley's first scene, but also the first scene of the entire crew. The burden of responsibility can be imagined.

Hugo just stood there quietly, slowing down the rhythm of his breathing, breathing deeply and exhaling for a long time, letting the brain exclude all the surrounding influences, and the whole person was quiet. Then I went through the lines in my mind again, and again, the flow of the whole scene gradually formed in my mind.

"Hugo?" There was a call from around him. He turned his head and looked at it. It was Curtis. "Are you ready?" Hugo nodded, and then Curtis was about to turn around and leave, but he thought about it. He stopped again and wanted to say some words of encouragement to Hugo, because he also knew how important the scene was. The pressure on his shoulders would never be less than that of Hugo, but he didn’t know what to say when the words came to his lips. Something, in the end just showed a smile at Hugo, then turned and left.

Curtis sat behind the monitor and raised his hand for a gesture. All the noise and restlessness in the audience disappeared in an instant. Quietly, one can almost feel the intensity of his breathing, and then the field note took the field note. The board ran to the front of the camera lens and shouted, "'L.A. Confidential', the first scene of the third act, the first attempt."

There was a crisp sound, all over the police. The reverberation in the police station caused the heart to contract involuntarily.

There was a faintly loud noise from the police station, and you could feel that there was a party on the second floor. Ed turned his head and looked at the commotion at the end of the corridor. A group of his colleagues were detaining several thieves into the cell. He was gentle and gentle. There is not much expression on his face, but the amber eyes hidden behind the gold wire glasses seem to be out of focus. There is a deep halo. You can feel that his brain is running fast, but it makes people feel like they are out of focus. Can't identify the content of the thoughts in the abyss.

Standing behind Ed was a photographer. He raised the camera, pointed Ed at the back of the corridor and pressed the shutter. The muddy shutter sound was accompanied by an exaggerated flash, but Ed seemed to be Without noticing the generality, still looking into the distance thoughtfully, even without blinking, people can't help but want to explore the secret hidden behind the glasses, "Sergeant Ed Asley."

The reporter’s voice came over Ed turned his head and his eyes drooped slightly. It was only a millisecond that people could not detect at all. Then he raised his gaze and looked towards Reporter Bob in front of him. With a gentle smile on his face, Bob continued, "The son of the legendary hero Preston Asley, you must find it difficult to catch him?"

Before Ed could speak, the photographer pressed the shutter again, and the exaggerated clicking sound and flash rushed towards his face. Ed was taken aback. He couldn't help but stepped back, as if worried that the other party would attack him. But her smile fully bloomed, as if she understood that the other party had no intentions at all, just making a fuss about herself, a little embarrassed, and a little relieved. It can be seen that he is totally uncomfortable with spotlights.

Then Ed looked at Bob again, "Why don't you go to another world? Why do you still want to be a police officer. What about it?"

The smile at the corner of Ed's mouth gradually converged, and he lowered his head in a panic to clean up the expression on his face. The emotion that was missed from the corner of his mouth was quickly hidden in the shadows, making it difficult to see. Soon, the smile at the corner of his mouth was outlined again, but it was more polite, like a smile hidden behind a veil.
