As the saying goes, good things take a long time, let alone shooting three movies in 17 days.

October 13th, 5 p.m.

The filming scene of "Buried Alive".

There are many cities in the United States located in the desert, the most famous of which is the casino city of Las Vegas. However, the crew of "Buried Alive" did not have the good luck to film in Las Vegas.

They are in the desert area northwest of Los Angeles. The climate here is dry all year round. From a glance, the houses and buildings are all very beautiful and neat, like an oasis in the desert. Of course, these are all built with money.

As Jack Black, a first-time director, to be honest, he felt very uneasy. For him, the problem he faced was not only to complete the filming of "Buried Alive" in the shortest possible time, but also to use...

This drama is here to prove myself, and this is the most important thing.

As the Jews say, even a pig has its market price, let alone a person?

Therefore, everyone has his own value.

Fat Jack has been the target of discrimination since college. People laughed at his fatness and ridiculed his clumsiness. He had low self-esteem and no self-confidence, so he had to use his indifferent smile to disguise how bohemian and careless he was.

superior.

But in fact, fat people also have spring, and fools also have ideals.

Jack Black's ideal is to be a screenwriter and an actor, to be able to hold his head high on the stage and accept everyone's cheers.

But this ideal is so far away. Due to appearance issues, he can only hide behind the scenes and do some piecemeal dubbing work, or sadly play roles such as clowns, fools, fools, or idiots.

Why am I doing this?

Jack Black asked himself this countless times.

I am not stupider than others, nor am I stupider than others. If I am guilty, I am just a little fatter than others.

God, is this my punishment?

I'm not convinced!

Fat Jack said to himself.

I want to prove to myself that my big belly is not a straw bag, but a talent!

Now, dear Yi Feiyang has given himself a chance, he must seize it, yes, he must seize it!

The more Fat Jack reminded himself solemnly like this, the more nervous he became during filming and couldn't let go.

Jake Gyllenhaal, who stars in this drama, quickly discovered this problem.

Gyllenhaal comes from an acting family. His sister is an actor, his mother is a producer, and his father is a director. Therefore, he is basically familiar with the process of filming and controlling it.

Gyllenhaal didn't understand why Yi Feiyang wanted this fat rookie who knew nothing and knew nothing to be the director of this drama, and privately told himself to help him.

Maybe Yi Feiyang and this fat man are very good friends.

Chinese people always like to talk about friendship, don't they? Just like they like to give gifts and red envelopes during holidays.

At the beginning, Gyllenhaal could tolerate the clumsiness of Fatty's director. After all, everyone had just cooperated, so they still had to give some face. But soon, Gyllenhaal couldn't stand Fatty's shooting speed.

Especially as the male protagonist of this drama, Gyllenhaal thought that many scenes should be repeated over and over again, but this fat panda man called him a "blocker" all the time.

"Damn it! Do it again!"

"God, does he know how to take pictures?"

"The camera is on me, okay, man, we are making a movie, not doing street interviews!"

…

In Gyllenhaal's opinion, the reason why he keeps taking another camera after another is not his fault at all. It's this damn fat man who doesn't understand the angle and process of controlling the shooting. Yes, he is simply a fool!

Poor China Yi chose such a guy to direct this drama!

Finally, halfway through filming, the young and energetic Gyllenhaal couldn't stand it anymore.

"Damn it, how did you become a director? Can you be a director? What kind of head do you have?!"

Gyllenhaal yelled at director Jack Black on the spot.

In an instant, everyone was stunned by this sudden scene.

The actor yelled at the director on the spot, which was unprecedented.

It's so surprising.

Seeing that the words had been spoken, Gyllenhaal was also ready to fight. He had been holding in his anger for a long time, and now he roared out.

"Damn it! Do you even understand what a movie is? Do you know how to stand in front of the camera and direct the actors to work? Have you ever experienced the excitement in your heart when there are countless pairs of paying attention eyes around you?! Have you fantasized about your own movie?

Is the roar of applause that comes from the cinema a good whistle when you achieve success?! Do you know how the camera pans and pans, and how the film is edited?! You don’t know, you are just a director who was pushed

It’s just the fat guy in the seat! Being a director is not that simple! So, man, stop dreaming, go home and wipe your ass and go to sleep.” Gyllenhaal roared out a series of words, and then looked at him with disdain.

A stunned Jack Black.

Just the fat guy - Blake was turned into mud by Gyllenhaal's on-the-spot shouting. No matter how thick-skinned he was, no matter how hip-hop he usually was, and pretended not to care, he was blushing at the moment, and he wanted to crawl into the cracks of the ground.

.

But it took him a long time to come back to his senses. Damn it, I am the director. Why was I scolded by an actor?!

"What did you say? Bastard! Who are you, and what qualifications do you have to judge me? Damn it, you are just an actor, understand? A guy who was invited back to film by our company! I can drive you away right away! Yes, bastard!

"

The fat man was like an angry calf, cursing at Gyllenhaal.

"And just now, what did you say? Yes, that's right. I just became a director and I don't know how it feels to stand in front of the camera. I don't have any experience in making films, and I haven't been welcomed by the audience. But I ask you,

Is it difficult for Spielberg to be born to make movies? Is it difficult for Lucas to be born to be a director?! Since I, Jack Black, have been pushed to the position I am today, I have the confidence to do my best! But!

What about you, what kind of shit actor are you? Who has ever seen a protagonist who disobeys orders and yells at the director like you?! Oh, damn God, you piss me off so much, you know that?

I want you to get out, and I want you to get out now! Our "Buried Alive" crew doesn't need you anymore!"

The more Fat Jack spoke, the louder his voice became, and the more he spoke, the more confident he became.

Yes, I am a director, who am I afraid of?!

"Ha, this is what you said! From now on, man, I, Gyllenhaal, swear to God, I will not film this movie anymore!" After Jack Gyllenhaal finished speaking, he waved his hand and was about to leave, but was stopped by

Several colleagues from the crew stopped him.

"Calm down, everyone, calm down!" said the photographer in charge of shooting, "I think everyone is a little tired, director, why don't you take a rest first?" The photographer asked Fat Jack for his opinion.

Jack Black waved his hand indifferently, and the crew temporarily disbanded.

Seeing the people disperse, Fat Jack let out a breath, then sat down on the open ground, thinking blankly.

"Is it really that difficult to be a director? Damn it, why can't I control an actor?" Fatty muttered.

Then he remembered what Yi Feiyang said when he appointed him as the director of the play "Buried Alive".

"Your name is Jack, and he is also called Jack. I hope you 'Double J' can bring me a miracle!"

These words are still fresh in my memory and still in my ears.

But now, I actually had a falling out with the guy with the same name as me, yes, I completely fell out!

In front of the whole crew, they almost got into a fight.

Fat Jack felt desolate in his heart. It seemed that he would never be able to complete this play. Damn you bastard, you are so inconsiderate! Don’t you understand that this is his first time as a director? Some problems are inevitable.

Why are you yelling so loudly? Damn you bastard, damn it!

The fat man was a little desperate. It was his first time as a director, but he was stillborn?!

He dialed Yi Feiyang's phone with some frustration. It was very simple. He hoped that he would understand him and send another talented person to direct the drama. In short, he couldn't make it.

But when he called Yi Feiyang and told Yi Feiyang what had happened, Yi Feiyang simply said, "You have to start and end everything. Even if you make a really bad movie, I won't blame you! Continue.

Work hard, as long as you persist, you will defeat yourself!"

Yi Feiyang's words were very plain and not very inspiring, but Fat Jack's nose felt sore after hearing this, and tears almost flowed out.

Without it, it’s just because Yi Feiyang has unconditional trust in him!

A scholar dies for a confidant!

Although Fat Jack Black didn't know this old Chinese saying, he had this unusual thought in his mind.

Yes, I can't be negative, I can't just admit failure!

This is my first drama!

This is my first chance to prove myself as a director!

I can't just give up!

Yes, absolutely not!

The fat man clenched his fist and punched the ground hard.

…

In October in the California desert, the climate changes are particularly obvious.
