Chapter 395 Breaking the Conflict
“Sorry, the number you dialed is unavailable, please confirm before dialing.”
Over and over again, the prompt voice from the handset of the mobile phone remains the same. There is no change, cold and alienated, constantly repeating the known answer.
It’s frustrating.
Edgar raised his head and glanced at Anson, "Do you need me to ask for Hayden's mobile phone number? Trust me, it only takes a few minutes."
Anson laughed dumbly, "Of course I believe you."
"Hollywood is a circle the size of a palm. You can't see it without looking up. I'm not worried about not finding Hayden. We may meet again at any time."
“But this is also the most puzzling part.”
“Why did he disappear in such an outrageous way even though he knew that we would never see each other again and we might meet by chance in Burbank another day.”< br>
Cannot understand.
However, it is precisely because of this that Anson is even more curious about meeting Hayden again——
Edgar glanced at Anson again, "So you don't plan to question him?"
" Haha, no, of course not, there is no need to question, and I have no position to question." Anson laughed, "We are just ordinary friends. Even as friends, we are not close friends. It is not that deep. I am just curious, so, I look forward to a conversation.”
Edgar was somewhat conflicted.
Every time at this time, Edgar felt that Anson did not look like nineteen years old at all. He had no impulsiveness or passion. Instead, he had a stability that had been accumulated through vicissitudes of life.
However, Anson still has an innocent heart and truly believes that the glory of kindness has not been tarnished by the fame and fortune fair at all.
This is very inconsistent.
After thinking about it, Edgar persuaded me, "It's best to lower your expectations."
The smile on Anson's lips remained, "Why, are you worried that I will be disappointed in the end?"
Edgar said bluntly, "No, I think you will be disappointed in the end."
Anson lightly shrugged, not caring, "That's like buying a lesson for free."
Edgar was stunned, "Free?"
Anson, "Of course, I There is no loss, he has not defaulted on the rent. Today’s society is so cruel, many people need to pay for a lesson, and now it is very worthwhile to get a lesson for free.”
A pause, Anson. Let out a small breath.
“Perhaps, the only regret is that I lost one friend.”
"However, it is too early to judge now. We should wait."
Involuntarily, Edgard glanced at Anson.
He thought, maybe, everything is not contradictory or inconsistent. This is not steady or naive, this is not mature or ignorant, but a kind of transparency.
Those little wisdom often see the ugliness of human nature.
Those with great wisdom can see the complexity of human nature.
Thinking of this, Edgar couldn't help but secretly pray, hoping that Hayden would have a perfect explanation to prove that they, the old fritters who were tainted by the Hollywood Vanity Fair, were all wrong.
“So, you really don’t need me to help you find out where Hayden will show up?”
“No. Since he left quietly and changed all his contact information, That means that at least for now, he doesn't want to be found."
"So, there is no need to avoid it?"
"Haha, if someone really needs to avoid it, believe me, it won't happen. It’s me.”
"Phew", Edgar exhaled a long breath, "This reassures me. We are shooting such an important scene this afternoon. If these weird things interfere with your state, I will go crazy."< br>
"Just like the Hulk?" "...Anson."
"Haha, please don't call my friends weird things, they are very It’s as important as my work.”
The words you exchanged were teasing, joking, and even joking, but inadvertently, Anson said a word and quietly brought the topic back:
Although not harsh, he took a firm stand.
Look, it is details like this, moments like this that always make Edgar feel a little dazed inadvertently, but it proves his guess time and time again.
Edgar's heart tightened and he grasped the key point immediately. He knew that this matter was very important. He glanced at Anson quickly and stopped joking.
"Ahem." Edgar cleared his throat, "Sorry."
In the carriage, silence was restored.
Outside the window, the palm trees recede rapidly, the golden sunshine of California fills the entire field of vision, and the prosperity and hustle and bustle of Los Angeles are receding rapidly.
They were on their way to the set of "Cat and Mouse" -
Not Burbank, but Hollywood Heights, northeast of the city.
Actually, Steven is not a retro-academic director. If studio shooting is required, he doesn’t mind entering the studio at all; but like directors born in the 1960s, he still believes in on-site shooting. The texture, the sunshine, the breeze, the humidity, even if they can't be seen on the screen, the actors and directors can feel it.
So, if possible, Steven still prefers to shoot on location.
This afternoon, "Cat and Mouse Game" is about to shoot a very important scene -
The first confrontation between Little Frank and FBI agent Carl.
In other words, this is the first time Anson and Tom Hanks play opposite each other.
After arriving in Los Angeles from New York, the first scene was so grand and difficult, so Edgar personally escorted Anson to the set.
Furthermore, Edgar was busy with the negative report in "Entertainment Weekly" and needed to establish a good relationship with the crew. He heard that Anson promised afternoon tea desserts on the New York set and immediately followed up. plan.
This is why Edgar needs to go to the set -
How can you do good deeds without leaving your name?
Although there is no need to publicize it, you should at least leave your name. The rumors that Edgar needs "Cat and Mouse" that have inadvertently leaked out from the crew are positive, and there is no trace of commercial exaggeration.
Edgar is ready to take care of everything and ensure that Anson can devote 100% to the work and ensure that the filming goes smoothly.
Because this is a scene opposite Tom Hanks, and also because it is an original scene from the movie script.
Movies are not 100% based on biography and reality.
In the real story, Frank Jr. did have several confrontations with the FBI agents who were chasing him, but it was not that dramatic or exciting, and the bond between Frank Jr. and the FBI agents was not that deep. .
Artistic creation originates from life and is higher than life.
As a result, the script was re-created based on the plot of Frank Abagnale Jr.'s autobiography, and finally evolved into the first confrontation between Frank Jr. and FBI agent Carl.
In real life, Frank Jr. was arrested twice, but escaped from detention both times and was finally arrested in Montpellier, France.
Among them, Frank Jr.'s first arrest is very legendary.
At that time, Frank Jr. was hiding in New York.
One day, two plainclothes detectives were eating hot dogs in a fast food restaurant. They accidentally caught a glimpse of a figure outside the window that was very similar to the little Frank they had been tracking for many days, but they did not dare to confirm it.
So, a detective came to his senses and shouted, "Hey, Frank."
No one thought that little Frank Abagnale, who had deceived countless people, actually Being tricked by such a traditional and old-fashioned trick, he actually turned around, allowing the two detectives to confirm and arrest little Frank.
The script did not reproduce this scene, but reworked and re-created it based on this scene.
Next, Anson is about to have a duel with Tom.
