Chapter 594 594 Different Challenges
When Quentin saw Hugo and Uma appear together, his tight heart couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. This was good news. Although he was still unsure of what happened between the two, at least he did not start arguing or fighting. This was a thankful beginning.
At this time, Hugo noticed Quentin's nervousness. He was a little puzzled at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he understood. He ignored this point. During the cooperation discussion, Quentin never mentioned that the heroine was Uma. Hugo couldn't help but smile, deliberately giving Quentin a fierce look when others were not paying attention, so that Quentin immediately pretended to be fine and turned his gaze away.
But Quentin's eyes were in sight and found that Hugo was walking straight towards him, which made him cough continuously, and he was the first to attack before Hugo arrived, "Hey, Beth, Beth! Take Hugo to change clothes, and yes, and make hair. The shooting will start after thirty minutes." Then Quentin looked at Hugo, who was less than five steps away from him, "Look, this is not our big star Hugo, how about it, are you ready to start working?"
Hugo originally wanted to tease Quentin, but now seeing Quentin's nervous expression made him not want to pierce it so quickly, so Hugo patted Quentin's shoulder and said meaningfully, "Of course, of course, you know, I'm ready at any time." He said while lit his chin and glanced at Uma standing next to him with his eyes. This glance immediately made Quentin retract his gaze and stood at attention without looking sideways, as if he didn't understand Hugo's hint at all.
Hugo was already smiling, but he still looked unwilling and followed the makeup artist to prepare.
Looking at Hugo's back as he left, Quentin was frowning. He couldn't directly ask Uma what was going on just now. After thinking about it, Quentin called Samora over, "Hey, Samora, what happened to Hugo and Uma just now?"
"Uh..." Samora had been dealing with the crew just now. This was his first time as Hugo's assistant as an actor. Although he had Joseph's guidance, he obviously had to work hard. Therefore, Samora naturally did not understand the matter between Hugo and Uma.
At this moment, Hugo's voice came from afar, "Samora, come and help me."
Samora was stunned. Hugo has always been self-sufficient and rarely asks himself to help during the promotion of "almost famous". Does it mean that it is different on the film crew? But even so, Samora smiled at Quentin, "Sorry, I don't know anything." Then he hurriedly rushed up. Only Quentin stood alone and looked sad.
"Hugo, is there anything I need to help?" Samora ran to Hugo and asked in a low voice.
At this moment, Hugo's smile finally couldn't help but outline it. It was really pleasant to tease Quentin, a gangster, and he was really happy. "Oh, it's okay... no, coffee, give me a cup of coffee, I need a cup of coffee." Although Hugo was awake at this time, he had not had coffee this morning, so today is not the beginning.
However, Samora was not at all strange and nodded at all and accepted the task immediately. The coffee he brought from his home this morning was already cold at this time, so he naturally could not drink it anymore. He must think of other ways. But after walking back two steps, Samora found that he didn't know how to get the coffee on the crew? However, Samora was not worried at all. He did not turn around and ask about Hugo's plans. As an assistant, everything was brand new. He had to rely on himself to get out step by step and prove that he could be competent for the job.
On the other hand, Hugo changed his clothes and prepared to do his hairstyle. Although this was the first time he had not participated in the new work shooting without Joseph's company, this was not a big problem for Hugo, not to mention that after the past month of adaptation, Hugo is now very skilled.
In order to play the role of Vincent, Quentin and Hugo discussed some simple positioning. They planned to combed Hugo's hair into a classic retro 28-cent oily back head, and the hair oil needs to be used slightly excessively, so that the hair will appear an unnatural oily shiny, which is also a supplement to Vincent's character itself.
Strictly speaking, Vincent is the most comical character in Hugo's career, including the previous decade, but this funny thing is not like the kind of Jim Carrey or Charlie Chaplin, but a kind of cold humor, but also a ridiculous clown feeling.
Comedy can even be called the most difficult one among the acting types. There is a saying in Hollywood that it is simple to make the audience cry, but it is never an easy thing to make the audience laugh. Perhaps there are many bad movies in comedy, which cannot be compared with serious dramas, actions, love and other types, but it is undeniable that how to make the audience laugh has always been a difficult problem. There are countless great actors in the long history of movies, but there are only a handful of comedians who can be called "great".
Therefore, "Pulp novels" are indeed a different challenge for Hugo.
Just as Hugo and the hairstylist were discussing how much oil it should be applied to make it more appropriate, it would not be too little to make it serious or too much to make it seem deliberate, a curly black man sat down next to him, and his curly hair that looked like a poodle made Hugo laugh before he even had time to say hello.
Hugo also knew that he was very rude, so he quickly apologized and said, "Sorry, I was rude. Hugo Lancaster." Hugo stretched out his right hand to express his friendship.
"It's okay, this hairstyle is for making people laugh, so I'm very satisfied when I see you laughing. Samuel Jackson (samuel.l.jackson)." The black man in front of him also stretched out his right hand like a palm-shaped fan and held Hugo's friendly right hand.
Samuel Jackson, this is Hugo's partner in "Pulp Novels", and it is also one of the most impressive characters in "Pulp Novels": before he killed someone, he always likes to recite a "Bible", which is similar to "Clockwork Orange" and performs violence while playing classical symphony while making people amazed.
Samuel is a very interesting existence in Hollywood. In fact, the most representative of the black Hollywood actors are Denzel Washington and Will Smith. Many people ignore Samuel's existence, but in fact, many people will be surprised when they mention Samuel's works.
Samuel can be regarded as the golden supporting role in Hollywood movies. He can be seen in all works of director Quentin Tarantino, "Star Wars Prequel", "The.avengers" and related film series adapted by Marvel Comics. He can be seen in all works of director Quentin Tarantino, and it can even be said that he is everywhere.
This golden supporting actor set an incredible Guinness record: he defeated box office superstars such as Tom Hanks, Harrison Ford, Will Smith, Johnny Depp, Tom Cruise, etc., and over the years, he has starred in more than 100 movies worldwide, accumulating more than 7.4 billion US dollars in box office, becoming the best actor's box office!
Although this result has attracted some doubts from industry insiders, most Samuel appears as supporting roles, and some works are even purely so-called, but they are still summarized into Samuel's personal box office; but it is undeniable that Samuel is indeed the most famous supporting role in Hollywood. He can always contribute enough energy to his position, and it is even more incredible that he has achieved such an achievement as a black actor.
Samuel's supporting role career began in the early 1980s, and he appeared in a lot of works, so in terms of experience, he is much richer than Hugo, especially this kind of comedy of black humor, so he could be said to be at ease when he teased, "So, are you ready?"
"No, I think I may never be able to prepare, you know, comedy is always nervous." Hugo did not hide his true emotions, and it was very rare to be able to gain experience from Samuel.
"Haha, relax, just remember, relax, this is the most important thing." Samuel laughed heartily, "Actually the easiest trick to perform comedy is: either completely relax or completely nervous, choose a way to enlarge it, and even get started."
This sounds simple, but it makes sense to savor it carefully. In fact, comedy itself is to bring laughter to the audience, so if you think too complex or too profound, it will lose the effect of comedy itself. Even comedy with profound meanings like "city.light" and "the.great.dictator" will cause thoughts to be the reflection behind laughter. If there is no laughter, then the so-called comedy itself is a failure.
"Oh no, then it seems that I need to brew again. Maybe I should start the bathroom first to solve the waste accumulated in my stomach, otherwise it will be difficult for me to relax during the shooting." Hugo's humorous self-taught joke made Samuel laugh again.
There was a noise behind him at this moment. Samuel glanced at the back and whistled, "The benefits of the morning are here."
Hugo turned his head in confusion and looked at Samuel's sight. Then he saw Samora arrive at the scene with a takeaway car, and then delivered a cup of hot coffee to all the staff on the scene. In fact, there were not many crew members of the "Pulp Novels", and there were less than 70 people after the actors, so a cup of coffee for each person was nothing, but Samora's action made the crew feel a good mood before the filming started.
Hugo also smiled. Samora was indeed very suitable for organizing work. Although Hugo had no explanation at all, Samora understood at one point. He watched Samora come over with a cup of coffee and said to Hugo with a smile, "Two packets of candy without milk, right?"
Hugo took the coffee with a smile, "You should leave yourself a cup." Then Hugo pointed to his forehead, handed over a box of tissues, and signaled that Samora would wipe her sweat.
It was only after seven o'clock in the morning. Samora was busy and sweating profusely. It showed how hard he worked today, but Samora smiled without any concern, "Don't worry, I never treat myself badly in this regard of food."
