Although Kate is easy to NG when shooting long shots, this movie is not made of one or several long shots, so after all, she finally recovered after shooting these scenes with bumpy and bumpy scenes.
In these short shots, Kate still performed well. She was originally a British person and had read these novels before, so she still had a relatively accurate grasp of the characters.
Of course, it is incomparable to experienced actors like Hopkins and Thompson. She still has one or two outstanding places when she plays with others, but once she is with them, she will be suppressed completely.
However, Kate did not take this matter seriously and still worked hard to do his job. In addition, Adrian has always controlled the rhythm of the shooting very well. For example, he has drawn each storyboard on paper, even with simple lines and explained it in detail to the actors before the filming starts, and has always maintained that it has never stopped.
So even if the crew had problems of one kind or another, such as when filming a driving scene on the road outside the manor, the antique car almost turned over, which scared the actors in the car; or if the customized costumes were incorrect, they were returned and caused the filming to be interrupted for two days, etc.
When the end of June is still coming, most of the shots at Howard Manor will be shot.
You're a great director, Ed, I think my previous decision was completely right.
Hopkins said to Adrian in private that after seeing his long-rumored quick shooting techniques, his control over the scene and his ability to understand the novel, he strengthened his confidence in him.
However, some things are so unsatisfactory. When Adrian brought the crew to the manor, in order to make everyone devote all their enthusiasm, he specially conducted a fully closed shooting, not only did he clean up the TV, but he was not allowed to have a newspaper.
Although some people are inevitably going out and some of the shots need to be filmed in the town, Adrian asked the crew members not to discuss outside.
At the beginning, many people were a little dissatisfied, but after getting used to it, they didn't say anything. Although Adrian's request was not strictly implemented, and everyone still talked a lot in private.
As for the absence of a TV or newspaper, it doesn't matter. Anyway, it's only two or three weeks of work. Several old employees who have been following Adrian know that the director said that the time it ends will definitely end at as much time, and the error will only be two or three days.
Therefore, the entire manor is still very peaceful and relaxed after shooting.
However, on the last day of June, this peace was suddenly broken, and many reporters appeared around the manor early in the morning as if they were coming out of the land. After Hopkins, Adrian or Thompson came out, they immediately rushed up.
Mr. Adrian, I am William of the Daily Mirror. How could you want to bring Mr. Foster's novel "Howard Manor" to the big screen?Do you think you are very powerful and can you shoot any kind of subject?
Why would you choose to work with the director who is famous for producing the Cult type in a literary and drama film, and it is Foster's Howard Manor, Ms. Thompson?
Mr. Hopkins, what makes you think it is the right thing to work with Mr. Adrian in literary drama films?Are you sure he can grasp the context of the movie?
These guys were like sharks smelling blood. Regardless of what happened to Hopkins and others, they rushed up to grab the news regardless of the situation.
Fortunately, the rest of the crew also came out and drove the reporters out.
It's so damn, why did they come to the door so quickly?!
Adrian said with some depression after retreating back into the house with several main actors.
He knew very well that these reporters would come sooner or later. Although he asked others not to contact outside during their stay in the manor, he had been in touch with Lavern, so the media's reaction was expected.
So far, "Pulp Novel" has won more than 30 million box offices in North America. Although this data is not high, it is not as high as "Batman Return" released at the same time, which exceeded 100 million in two weeks, but it is very stable. Within a little more than 3 weeks of release, the weekly box office was around 10 million, and the increase or decrease was not large.
Besides, Adrian explained to Lavern from the beginning that he would use long-term screenings to recover the box office, so as long as he keeps this way, he will definitely be fine to reproduce the record of a box office of over 100 million in North America.
The honors this movie have won - the Palme d'Or; and the current hit movies - the R-rated Cult type movies, have achieved quite good results.
This has also caused a considerable trend of producing Cult-type movies, and has also made many large-scale filmmakers turn their attention to independent, small-cost movies.
Some critics even believe that Hollywood independent filmmakers should thank Adrian. Without him and his "Pulp Novel", independent films would not be taken so seriously - although Adrian's works are not completely independent films, this kind of trend is indeed caused by him.
As a result, the public and the media began to further explore the wizard director. Although his previous experiences have been known, people are still very curious about how a pampered guy made such a gangster movie?
Even if he had been fooling around for a while, some things would not be able to see so clearly unless he stayed at the bottom of society.
Whether it's Martin Scorsese or Francis Ford Coppola, can you make those famous gangster movies without those young experiences?
But from any perspective, Adrian is a person from the society. How did he grasp these things?
Although he once said in Cannes that this is because he has watched a lot of gangster movies and videos, this explanation obviously cannot satisfy most people, so a new round of mining and analysis is bound to proceed.
In this way, there has been no stopping, and the comparison between Adrian's new movie genre and the original style was brought out again.
But since the release of "Pulp Novel", the Wizards director has disappeared from the public eye again.
At the beginning, he attended some publicity activities, and after a few times, only actors and other producers were left in such activities.
Although no one knows where he went, the reporters were reporters after all, especially entertainment reporters. It was soon found that he took the crew of the new movie to the UK, and the new actor Anthony Hopkins was also accompanied by the new film actor!
Obviously, after he ruined Al Pacino, he set his sights on Anthony Hopkins. If I were Anthony, I would definitely consider whether it was the right choice to collaborate with Adrian in literary and drama films.
A newspaper wrote half-jokingly and half-mockingly.
I am very suspicious that Adrian claimed in name that he would shoot a literary drama movie, but actually shot a thriller movie. Otherwise, why would he invite Anthony Hopkins, who just won the Oscar for Best Actor in history, to star in the lead role?
Another newspaper said.
Major media immediately sent reporters to London. Although Adrian swore that the new movie was a complete literary and artistic plot, he never revealed the specific name. Now he actually took the crew to the UK. Does that mean that the movie will be in British style?
If this is the case, then the fun will be great.
However, because Adrian was prepared and filmed in the suburbs in a closed manner, he also specifically reminded his partner to keep secrets, although these reporters received a lot of clues about him being indeed in London, they never knew where he was.
However, British journalists later joined in, and they were also paying attention to Adrian's new movie. With the help of these local guys, they soon got a piece of news from King's College, Cambridge University. More than a year ago, a Hollywood producer found them and bought the adaptation rights of Foster's novel "Howard Manor"!
According to this news, the reporters finally found that the person who bought the adaptation rights of this novel was a producer from Bosworth Pictures!
Reminding Adrian's statement, it goes without saying what his new movie is.
Of course, there are still many reporters who do not believe that although Adrian successfully adapted Stephen King's novel and was nominated for Best Director for the Oscar, the style of this novel is completely different from his previous movies. If he really chose to adapt this novel, there is only one explanation: water in his head!
Unfortunately, after asking Bothworth Pictures, the answer they got shattered their fantasy: Adrian's new movie is indeed "Howard Manor"!
The North American media all lost their voices for a moment, and the British media began to criticize them strongly after being stunned.
There was a strong criticism: What did he want to do?Who gave him the power to do this!He will ruin this novel!
There are sharp doubts: Although Adrian has been in the UK and the first movie interprets British black humor just right, it does not mean that he can arrogantly think that he has the ability to adapt Foster's novel. Does he understand what this novel tells?Does he understand what this novel represents?God Ah, this is a disaster!
There are also sarcastic taunts: Obviously, in a few months, we can see Henry and Margaret swearing on the big screen, a sharp drug-taking Helen, a family that is unscrupulous, expecting a ‘fuck’ to appear every two or three minutes. Maybe in the end, Henry will want to kill Margaret and eat her, and Margaret and Helen will try their best to kill him, thus obtaining Howard Manor. If I were Foster, I would definitely jump out of the grave and kill this American boy with my own hands!
