Chapter 748 He is YUs younger brother(2/2)
Jimmy on the other end of the phone was stunned. He didn't expect that the filming of the movie would be so fast. If he remembered correctly, the money invested by the company had just been allocated to them not long ago.
"How long did it take you to shoot this movie?"
"About twenty days, less than a month anyway."
Less than a month... Jimmy blinked and asked again: "How long is this movie?"
"Not sure yet, it should be cut to about 110 minutes."
When he heard the duration, Jimmy twitched his lips and said nothing.
It's not like he has never seen a movie shot very quickly. "Sniper Phone Booth" written by Yu Dong only took about ten days to shoot. In comparison, the shooting time of Nolan's movie was quite long.
But the problem is that the script of "Sniper Phone Booth" is quite special. All the stories basically take place around a phone booth, so it is really simple to shoot.
Moreover, George Schumacher is, after all, a great director with rich experience.
Although the shooting duration cannot be used as the main basis for judging the quality of a director, it definitely has some reference significance.
In most cases, shooting quickly means that the director has more precise control over the entire film.
But it's too early to say anything now. Jimmy needs to see the finished film before he can make a judgment.
"After the film is cut, show it to me."
"Of course it's no problem. It shouldn't take long for the rough sample to be out. Do you want to see the rough sample?"
"Of course, if it's convenient for you."
Nolan smiled and said, "There is no inconvenience. I will show it to you after the rough sample comes out."
"Well, then I'll wait." Jimmy smiled and changed the subject, "I'm calling you because I have another thing to do. The company also has a movie here and hopes to invite you to shoot it. I was worried at first.
You have to shoot your own movie, and there will be a time conflict, but now it seems that there should be no problem with the time."
Nolan did not rush to respond, but asked, "What movie?"
"A science fiction movie."
Hearing that it was a science fiction movie, Nolan raised his eyebrows, "I personally really like science fiction themes, but there haven't been many good scripts for science fiction movies in the past two years. This time you..."
Before he finished speaking, Jimmy smiled and said: "The script was written by YU."
Nolan said nothing more.
He held the phone and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Are YU's scripts necessarily good? Rationally speaking, of course not necessarily. No matter how great the creator is, sometimes his performance is mediocre. This is human nature.
However, YU is an exception. Over the years, he has never been mediocre, at least when it comes to science fiction themes.
After a while, Nolan managed to say: "Can I read the script?"
Jimmy smiled and said: "Of course, this is a reasonable request. You will decide whether to film or not after you read the script. You have to come to the company to read the script. Come over if you have time. Remember to give me a call before you come."
"I'll go there today."
"Actually, there's no need to be in such a hurry."
