What's wrong with this kid?
"Can I try it again? If I make any mistakes, please point them out. "
"Okay, okay …" The piano teacher gave up his seat. Qin Guan sat down in front of the piano neatly and placed his hands on the keys gently.
Qin Guan's fingers moved. As he played, his body swayed back and forth with the rhythm of the piano.
The smooth music floated out of the keyboard and wandered among the crowd of onlookers. The fluttering fingers on the keyboard and the closed eyes contemplation outside the keyboard. Everything was so natural.
"Ding ding ling ling … Dang dang dang!"
When the last note ended, when the last finger was pressed, when the last eye was opened, when the most repressed heart was opened, everyone in the room fell into a deep shock. This Asian boy was a classic example of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger.
He had never played this song before, but it was a stark contrast to his fluency. What did it mean to be born with it? This was even scarier than having artistic talent.
The piano teacher was very excited. He seemed to see the birth of a world-class piano master. He grabbed Qin Guan's hand and said with trembling lips, "You should keep playing instead of wasting your time on this rubbish play."
Is it appropriate for you to say that in front of all the crew members?
Of course, the teacher didn't have a good ending. He was thrown out of the room by the strongest man in the crew.
Not only did he stop the crew from shooting, but he also tried to persuade the leading actor to give up.
This was good news for Qin Guan though. He had indirectly solved another troublemaker. Qin Guan's piano performance, which was supposed to be the most difficult part of the shoot, turned out to be the easiest part of the film.
The crew members took advantage of this opportunity to eat and rest.
Overtime was very expensive for American film crews. According to the rules of the union, there was a strict standard for the length of a day's shooting and the salary of the crew members.
For a non-commercial film like "Elephant", thanks to the fact that it did not require any post-production special effects, audio and video processing, and so on, it would have cost a lot of money. Otherwise, the investment company would have turned upside down.
The winter sun always rose lazily and set quickly. There was only enough time for one small scene that day.
Gus, who was very strict about the progress of the shooting, gathered all the members of the crew after less than an hour's rest.
"Attention, everyone! There's only one more scene to go. Cheer up! I'll buy you a drink at the Karla Bar tonight!"
All the rough men burst into laughter. How could the stingy Gus be so generous?
But when they saw the scene being filmed, they knew that they had been cheated by this old man again. If this scene wasn't filmed smoothly, not to mention tonight's wine, they might not even be able to drink tomorrow or the day after.
What is this scene about?
Is it a common element in indie films all over the world? The taboo of homosexuality?
It turned out that the reason why the gloomy Eric was depressed was because of the desire for sex in his heart. He would never be a normal woman.
What he longed for was a man's embrace, and this far-fetched plot made the whole plot full.
Homosexuality, underage girls, school violence, shootings, resistance, and all the wonderful gimmicks of indie films were shown in "Elephant" one by one.
This added a special touch of color to the entire movie.
The scene was shot in Eric's bathroom, which was full of frosted glass.
Out of respect for American film shooting, one could say that the other party was shameless or unrestrained, but many Chinese movies would use borrowed shots or blur the scene, but none of that existed here.
However, they were smart enough to make the scene look real and not expose their bodies.
Since it was an intimate scene in the bathroom, everyone had to take off their clothes. As a man of the crew, Qin Guan didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Alex, who was acting with him on the side, met him openly on the set.
Don't talk about underwear. What's that?
The shower head in the cubicle was turned on, and warm water flowed down from the shower head. In the small single bathroom cubicle, only the figures of two naked men were left.
"Close the door and turn on the lights. Cameraman, get ready! Three, two, camera!"
The two naked men were shrouded in white mist. Their smooth, clean skin was indistinct behind the frosted glass.
Eric was the one with the round muscles, and Alex was the one with the sharp and strong muscles. The two of them looked at each other calmly and gently. It was so clear in the camera, but so hazy in the camera.
"That's it. We're going to die like this today..."
"Yes, Alex. I've never kissed anyone in my life..."
Qin Guan's voice was ethereal and hazy. His desire was about to burst out, but he was afraid of getting hurt. He was so fragile that he wanted to be held in his arms and protected.
The boy didn't laugh at Qin Guan's shyness. Instead, he slowly raised his arms.
Suddenly, the camera outside the frosted glass moved. The two boys could only see Qin Guan's face in front of them. His confused eyes and the drops of water running down his cheeks made his handsome face look delicate and fragile.
The blonde boy leaned against the camera and slowly raised his broad arms. His exposed back, the curve of his waist, and his tight buttocks were vaguely visible under the mist and frosted glass.
Without the straightforward feeling of filming, it was even more beautiful and tempting.
"Me too …" The blonde boy moved his head closer to Qin Guan. The closer they got, the closer they got. Finally, they reached a victorious meeting.
Their young lips touched, and like the rising water temperature in the room, they were submerged in the narrow space shrouded in white mist.
The camera stopped at this point. The machines by the side of the set were still running. The director adjusted his crooked baseball cap and straightened his body.
The crowd of onlookers tidied up their clothes solemnly, waiting for the last sentence.
