America gains both fame and fortune

Chapter 287 Super Fast Hand Speed

The Brooklyn studio area suddenly became quiet and harmonious, and the three crews restrained their members and told them not to mess around.

The studio area is too dangerous!
Inevitably, rumors arose, such as that Martin Davis was difficult to deal with, and they came out of the I'm Not There crew.

Martin didn't care and focused on filming every day.

Hollywood is a world full of rumors.

Due to the delay of the Central Park location shooting, the crew remained at the studio to shoot.

After the literary part came to an end, director Danny Boyle temporarily gave up the directing baton, and assistant director and action director Chad Stahelski was responsible for shooting the action scenes.

Martin had worked with him on Wanted, and they had a particularly good understanding in the action scenes.

Martin understood Chad's intentions and ideas as soon as he spoke them out, and he completed them extremely well.

Inside the set that was decorated to look like an Upper East Side penthouse, Martin took off his suit jacket and threw it to the assistant next to him, while the stylist came over to urgently touch up his makeup.

Chad called Lewis, the stuntman who played Martin's opponent, over to discuss the scene together: "In this scene, Martin drinks blood mixed with smart drugs and gradually recovers, but the opponent has a gun in his hand, and you have to use unconventional methods to deal with him!"

He then said to Lewis: "Come over and check the situation, lean over to check Martin's condition, and then the conflict breaks out, pay attention to cooperation."

Lewis had already practiced his moves and responded, "No problem."

Bruce then enters the set and gives Lewis a prop revolver, and a sealed package of soft needles to Martin.

Chad asked, "Is that okay? Do you want to practice first?"

Martin tore open the package and said, "No, I've practiced it."

At night, I played games with Aniston in a similar way. It was really fun when men and women played games together.

This certainly didn't involve any messy stuff. It was mainly because Aniston was aware and actively cooperated with Martin to practice key action scenes.

After the stylist finished retouching Martin's makeup, he lay on the ground next to a pool of blood, with red blood stains on his mouth, pretending to be a dead man.

Chad returned to the director's seat, looked over the set through the director's monitor, and shouted, "All departments, get ready, three minutes to shoot!"

Soon, the script supervisor hit the clapboard and the shooting began.

Lewis entered the spacious apartment living room with a revolver in hand. Seeing his accomplice and Martin lying in a pool of blood, he immediately came over to check the situation.

He reached out and turned Martin's body over, and Martin turned around, opened his mouth and spit out the needle.

The soft needle hit Lewis in the face and he let out a scream.

Martin followed the preset routine, reached out and knocked Lewis' gun away, kicked him out, then jumped up and used a Bruce Lee-style side kick.

Lewis fell backwards and hit the preset prop cabinet, breaking the cabinet door and unable to get up.

Martin followed closely and punched Lewis in the face with a 1-inch punch.

Lewis cooperated very well, his head tilted back and to one side.

Martin gasped for breath, came to the pool of blood, picked up the revolver that had fallen on the ground, and checked the bullets.

His hands hung naturally on both sides of his thighs, and he stared at the entrance of the passage, like a cowboy about to duel.

According to Boyle and Chad's idea, there would be a montage of shots of the old cowboy shooting a revolver in "Unforgiven".

The crew has obtained authorization to use the relevant films.

"Stop!" Chad felt good, but lacked confidence. Just like before, he asked Director Boyle on the other side: "Is it OK?"

Boyle nodded: "Very good!"

Chad then shouted, "This one's passed!" He then reminded, "Martin, Lewis, don't move, action group two enters the scene!"

Several male actors had received guns from Bruce and immediately entered the shooting location according to the rehearsal route.

Chad added, "Martin, pay attention to your shooting posture. It's not the kind you are used to. It's the cowboy-style revolver shooting."

Martin nodded: "Understood, revolver rapid fire!"

With Chad's order, the shooting began again.

Amid the sound of dense footsteps, Martin performed some tricks with his revolver like a cowboy. Before the first person came out, he held the revolver with one hand and pressed the hammer with the other.

Five enemies with guns appeared in the field of vision.

Martin pulled the trigger and fired a round of rapid-fire revolver fire!

His hand speed is astonishingly fast. He has been digging tunnels continuously in the past two years, which has enabled him to develop super fast hand speed. He doesn't even need any special effects!

Those who have experienced this say it’s good!
Anne Hathaway, Angelina Jolie, Blake Lively and Jennifer Aniston can all attest to that!

Six gunshots rang out, five enemies fell to the ground, and a decorative glass panel shattered.

Chad was quite excited and shouted, "Well done! Martin, you are awesome!"

Martin threw the revolver to Bruce and said, "No big deal." He could use such hand speed in a dark and humid environment, not to mention a dry and unobstructed environment.

The action scene in the apartment ends here, and Chad yells, "It's time to call it a day."

During the lunch break, the crew did not return to the hotel but ate on the dining car.

The actors from the next-door crew of "I'm Not There" automatically avoided Martin when they saw him from afar, as if they had encountered the devil.

Martin carried the meal tray to the trailer, waited for Bruce to sit opposite him, and asked, "Old Bruce, am I that scary?"

Bruce not only had bright eyes but also sharp ears in the crew. He whispered, "Don't you know that rumors are spreading widely on the set? They say you are difficult to deal with, a big devil, and whoever you target will be in trouble."

Martin had heard the first part before, but it was the first time he heard the latter part: "Big Devil? What the hell? I am the leader of the Divine Religion, okay!"

"I have inquired carefully. It was first spread by Cate Blanchett." Bruce knew a lot: "She is an important member of the Australian gang and she doesn't like you very much."

Martin took a bite of the vegetable and then a bite of the meat: "Doesn't she know that the big devil eats meat?"

Bruce was immediately interested when he heard this: "What? Want to fuck her?" He liked fucking people the most: "How? Do you have a plan?"

"Stop! Stop!" Martin was puzzled: "Old Bull, use your shitty brain. When have good people like us ever taken the initiative to attack others? We were all acting in self-defense!"

He emphasized: "The mouth is on someone else's body. How can you control what others say? As long as she doesn't say it in front of me, let her do whatever she wants."

Bruce turned his head and saw Blanchett and Bale in the distance through the dining car window.

He had been close to some people from the next group. Bale had a very good relationship with Heath Ledger and was very dissatisfied with Martin.

But you can't just kill someone just because they have a problem with you or say bad things about you behind their back.

After dinner, the two returned to the trailer to rest.

Martin asked Bruce: "Is there any news about Harvey Weinstein in the News of the World or the Sun?"

"No." Bruce handed him two recent newspapers. "Harvey is not an ordinary person. I guess the News of the World won't move unless there is solid evidence."

When it comes to gossip, scandal and celebrity revelations, The Sun and its weekend edition, the News of the World, are renowned for their accuracy.

The news team Martin met in Washington would rather take the risk of making news than write random essays.

Xavi is also a big fish.

In the afternoon, the crew continued filming the action scenes, which were gun battles centered entirely around Martin.

Long-term shooting training allowed Martin to handle these scenes with ease.

Robert De Niro also appeared in the studio and officially joined the filming.

As one of the four great actors in the 1970s and 1980s, the old man, like Jack Nicholson, has a bad temper, but he is a completely different person during filming and in normal times, and is relatively dedicated.

Robert De Niro has not been very picky about the scripts he makes in recent years, which has something to do with his family. As an Italian-American who values ​​family, the old man currently has six children and is planning to have a seventh.

Raising children is expensive.

Martin and he were from the same WMA, and with Robert De Niro's agent Ali acting as a lubricant, they got along pretty well on the crew.

In addition to life, we also talk about some common friends.

Martin specifically mentioned a friend of theirs: "I heard from Leo that it was you who introduced him to director Scorsese?"

Robert De Niro nodded: "I'm that bastard's dad!"

Martin's eyes widened in shock. Could there be some unspeakable secret? Some earth-shattering gossip?

"Don't think too much." Robert De Niro obviously guessed Martin's thoughts: "In the early 400s, when I was filming "Boy's Life", I personally selected Leonardo from candidates and asked him to play my rebellious stepson."

Martin was learning this for the first time and asked, "Was he so dazzling back then? One in 400?"

Robert De Niro: "Just a dumb guy. I chose him because he's Italian!"

Martin was not surprised at all by this, as ethnicity and nationality are the most obvious symbols of circles in Hollywood.

De Niro added, "Then I recommended him to Scorsese. He's pretty good and has been improving." Then he looked at Martin and asked, "Scorsese said you beat that bastard on the set of The Departed?"

Hearing this, people around including Aniston and Bruce looked at Martin in surprise, unable to hide the shock in their eyes, as if to say, I didn't expect you to be such a person!

"It was Leonardo who was exposed in the performance!" Martin corrected quickly. He didn't care about titles like the big devil and difficult to deal with, but words like "Leonardo was exposed" could ruin a person's innocence.

He is quite confident in this regard: "Director Scorsese said that my interpretation of the role is much better than Leonardo's."

Aniston came over and kissed Martin in front of everyone without hesitation, and complained to De Niro: "You scared me."

De Niro laughed: "No wonder you have such a good relationship with Leo." He changed the subject: "That bastard doesn't look like an Italian. He is irresponsible, doesn't get married, and doesn't value his family. He's a traitor!"

Martin agreed: "He is an absolute traitor and I will make him pay if I get the chance."
