Chapter 957: pure misunderstanding
The third update today, please recommend, please subscribe!
It was a cold winter in January, but the person in front of him who was suspected of being a local indigenous chief was still wearing a thin linen dress: it was indeed a skirt, just a one-piece, and there were no trouser legs at the hem. Of course, naturally It's not like the skirts worn by women have curves or the like, in fact, it's just like the long robes worn by ancient people. The belt woven with hemp rope around the waist is very delicate, and there is a ruby in the middle, but I don't know if it is true or not.
The face of the suspected chief is habitually painted with paint, but it is not as exaggerated as Evan Bell's face at this time, it is just a simple three horizontal bars. The animal bone hat on the top of the head is slightly larger than that of ordinary people, and the quality of the bones is also better, and it looks smooth and bright.
The man glanced at Evan Bell, who was tied to a bamboo pole, then yelled at Gore Verbinski, who was standing in front of the crowd. Looking at the expressions of the "audience" next to me, I immediately felt very happy. The expressions of the local indigenous people were different. Some people didn't care, some people were a little cautious, and some people were scared. Most of the staff who came here were puzzled, and only a small number of people were murmuring and communicating with each other.
In other words, the suspected chief was venting his anger recklessly, but few people at the scene could understand. It's as if you've been complaining a lot, only to find that the audience is simply plugged in earplugs, doesn't understand what you mean, and is just winking at the blind. It's really unbearable.
The official language of Dominica is Spanish. There are people who can speak Spanish or even proficient in the crew, but at least Gore Verbinski can't understand it. Therefore, the suspected chief is roaring and roaring there, but only a few of them turn out. People understand, and then they translate it to those around them. After understanding the content of the roar, everyone suddenly realized the expression. They all reacted accordingly. However, this translation has a lag, so the response of everyone on the scene is like a domino, and there is still a time lag.
Gore Verbinski looked to the staff around him for help, but none of the camera assistants and screenwriters around him knew Spanish, and the best Spanish-speaking crew had just left to solve physical problems. Gore Verbinski saw that there was a staff member who understood Spanish not far away, so he stepped forward to ask what was going on, but it was suspected that the chief saw Gore Verbinski leaving. But he thought he was about to leave, and he strode over and stopped in front of Gore Verbinski.
Gore Verbinski was at a loss. He tried to call for the staff to come over and tell him what happened, but the translation was not enough. There was a buzzing discussion at the scene, but everyone was enthusiastic. gossip discussion. Forget Gore Verbinski, who was standing there in a dilemma.
In fact, it seems to be a long time to describe, but it is normal that the staff did not respond to things in less than 30 seconds. Gore Verbinski couldn't help but look back at Evan Bell. Evan Bell looked really funny at this time. He was completely tied to the bamboo pole, and he couldn't move his hands and feet. With the staff supporting him, he could only land on his stomach and lie on the ground like a turtle.
Evan Bell saw the eyes of Gore Verbinski. He couldn't help shouting, "He doesn't understand Spanish!" Evan Bell was originally a singer, and he was full of energy. A Spanish roar was so powerful that the suspected chief suddenly stopped.
Although Evan Bell has already read the original Spanish version of "One Hundred Years of Solitude", his spoken language is still not fluent, but his vocabulary has become larger, and the expression of meaning has become clearer, and he no longer needs to make gestures. That's all. not to mention. Evan Bell's current posture is really not an elegant movement, and he must also use the power of Dantian when speaking. It is quite strenuous, so now Evan Bell is still not the best negotiating object.
Fortunately, a staff member finally reacted at this time, and two people who were proficient in Spanish ran to Gore Verbinski's side to explain the situation for him. Some people ran to the simple bathroom to call for the drama.
The person who seemed to be the chief just shouted for a long time, and Evan Bell understood 70% of it. Although he spoke too fast, and there were local sayings, it did not affect Evan Bell to understand the ins and outs of the matter. .
Even if the person in front of him is not the chief of the tribe, he is still at the leadership level. He is from a local tribe in Dominica. Originally, he was happy because the arrival of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" sequel crew provided many people with part-time opportunities, but today I heard that the crew was shooting this scene, and he was immediately angry.
In this scene, Gore Verbinski casts locals as cannibal tribesmen who are about to cook Captain Jack Sparrow for food. In fact, this is just a film art expression, and it does not mean to target local residents. But the suspected chief believes that the crew misinterpreted their ancestors and mistook them for cannibals, which was an insult to them. Moreover, once the film is released, it will inevitably affect the image of the Dominican aborigines around the world. Therefore, the suspected chief dressed up and came to the door to ask for an explanation.
After Gore Verbinski figured out the situation, he handed over the diplomatic part to the drama management who came over. In fact, they will get along with this plot, which has nothing to do with the local Dominicans. It is actually an episode of Captain Jack Sparrow encountering cannibals in his adventure. Furthermore, "Pirates of the Caribbean" is an entertainment-oriented commercial film, so how can there be so many deep meanings. As for the mistaken belief that the ancestors of the tribesmen of Bataka were cannibals, it is even more nonsense. When I wrote the script, I didn't think about where to shoot, but Jerry Bruckheimer thought Dominica was suitable, so he came over, that's all.
Gore Verbinski, who returned to the shooting location, looked helpless. Jerry Bruckheimer did not take it with him. He also needed to handle these foreign affairs, which made him very depressed. After all, this is not him. Things you are good at.
"How is it? Is it all explained clearly?" Evan Bell understands this feeling very well. Although he has only directed two works, "The Notebook" and "Mysterious Skin" were both rejected by local residents during the filming. .
"Love Notebook" was complained because the arrival of the crew brought a lot of media and affected the daily life of local residents. The situation of "Mysterious Skin" is a bit similar to today. Residents of Hutchinson Town believe that Evan Bell described the town's park as a place for Neil sex. This is an insult to the town itself. No one dared to go to the park, and for outsiders, it was even more misleading.
At that time, Evan Bell spent a lot of energy to deal with these things, but fortunately Teddy Bell was always there to help.
Gore Verbinski shook his head, "He just said he was going to complain to our boss."
"Boss? Are you referring to Jerry or Michael?" Evan Bell was stunned, not thinking that the tribal chiefs on this small island were not only tough, but also knew the rules of society well. In this situation, directors and actors have no right to change, only producers and investment companies are qualified, so finding the boss is indeed a feasible way, although it is not sure whether to meet the boss. Moreover, from this point of view, this tribal chief obviously attaches great importance to this matter, and is quite reluctant.
"It should be Michael, who said he was very dissatisfied with what Disney did and thought they were misleading the children." Gore Verbinski said with a wry smile, this situation is really quite tricky. Because the crew is now on the island, and more than 400 extras are local indigenous people, if the chief strikes, the filming schedule will have to be interrupted.
Evan Bell could only shrug helplessly, "I hope his communication with Michael goes well." As soon as these words came out, the two looked at each other and smiled. Michael Inas is a typical hegemonic and powerful figure. He will not allow others to challenge his authority. It is estimated that in front of Michael Inas, this chief will only be shriveled. "However, I just learned today that the main audience for our films are children?" Evan Bell's words made Gore Verbinski laugh.
"Pirates of the Caribbean" was the first movie in Disney history to be rated pg-13, meaning that children under the age of thirteen must be accompanied by a parent. So, unlike Disney's previous cartoons, "Pirates of the Caribbean" isn't really a children's movie.
After that, the tribal chief really found Michael Inas~www.readwn.com~ Because more than 300 members of the tribe were ordered to stop their work, which made the filming impossible. This is pitiful for Evan Bell. He was just tied up, and then he was left hanging in place, covered in blood, which is really sad. Then, when Evan Bell decided to take the rope off first, take a break, and things worked out, it was time to start shooting again. So, Evan Bell has to stay in place like a dumpling and wait for all the extras to return, which is indeed a torment.
Sure enough, Michael Inas staunchly refused the tribal chief's request, and I don't know how he persuaded the chief to continue the original filming plan smoothly, and all the extras returned. Although Michael Inas has not managed Disney well in the past two years, his methods are unquestionable.
Evan Bell was tied and waited for about ten minutes before Gore Verbinski announced, "Everyone is ready..."
But at this moment, another voice interrupted Gore Verbinski, "Wait!"
