Hollywood Secret Garden

"I know what I'm doing, the fact that all the scenes in this movie involving Her Royal Highness will be edited from the documentary. I understand why most people are against it, in fact I was very resistant when I first thought about it But I asked myself, why don't I show everyone what happened at that time? Isn't there so much misunderstanding between the royal family and the people because they don't understand each other's thoughts? Of course, this is not easy This disaster and everything that happened after that is so heavy that if I am not careful, I may write everything. For this reason, I read a lot of materials and tried my best to restore the original facts without emotions and my own opinions. ——I know that there are always some things that cannot be fully understood anyway, and everyone has their own views and opinions, but as someone who has experienced those experiences, I will try my best to do what I should do.”

That was Angela's answer in her self-statement after gathering reporters after filming outside Buckingham Palace.Although the tabloids still like to take quotes out of context, several regular newspapers published her speech intact.Although there are still not many people who expressed their support, most of the dissatisfied people who felt that she might be biased towards the royal family became wait and see.

This is why Angela said that if it was replaced by another director, even if there was controversy, it would not be as big as it is now.People are wondering which side she will be on, the side of Princess Diana who is close to her or the side of the royal family who are close to the family?During the week and a half of filming at Buckingham Palace, the tabloids weren't hyping it up.Some extreme people even compared Angela with those who betrayed the princess's private life.

"Obviously, Angela really knows what she's doing, and she has found a way to shoot that suits her. However, even though she is very good at creating miracles, this time it still makes people sweat. Just As she said herself, a little carelessness could mess everything up, and maybe Angela needs someone to say to her: Good luck!" After publishing Angela's speech outside the White House, The Times A brief comment followed.

This should be considered good news. Although the tabloids are still holding on to it, at least the mainstream media is still basically objective.

"Fortunately, the statement that day was in place, and the public finally didn't put more hats on me such as 'betrayer'." Sitting on the high-back chair in the conference room, Angela let out a long breath of self-deprecating, surrounded by Suddenly there was a chuckle.

"At least for those of us who have read the script, you are definitely not that kind of person." Helen Miller, the first heroine sitting on the left, said comfortingly with a smile.This old lady is also an interesting person. When Angela came to invite her to play the leading role in a new movie, she agreed without even knowing the content.After all, Angela, the most outstanding female director in the world, came to invite her personally, and several Oscar winners and actresses were born from her hands, why didn't she agree?

Then when Angela said that she was going to play the role of Queen Elizabeth II who was currently living in Buckingham Palace, the old lady Helen's face was really wonderful.However, after all, Helen had already experienced too many things at an early age, so she quickly calmed down, and she was even more relieved when she learned that Angela had obtained the Queen's approval.

Even when Angela jokingly asked her "Will you agree to others without thinking about anything in the future", she still calmly replied "It depends on the person", "Judge according to the specific object" and so on.

"Thank you, anyway, I know what I'm doing." Angela nodded in response.

Although criticized by a lot of people, but because of certain things, the situation is not too bad.For example, because Diana was killed because the plane overshot the runway this time, and she did not date Dodi Fayed, there is little market for conspiracy theories.Otherwise, God knows if the media will interpret her and the movie as part of a conspiracy.

"In a sense, I have taken on a lot of pressure that originally belonged to you, Helen," Angela said to Helen jokingly again, "So, should you consider paying me some mental damage?"

Helen folded her hands on her chin and looked at Angela with seriousness. During this time, she had been trying to figure out Queen Elizabeth II's words and deeds, so her piercing eyes still had a lot of majesty.After staring like this for several minutes, she nodded to the others: "Very good, Angela is in excellent condition."

Low laughter suddenly sounded all around, Angela shrugged and knocked on the table: "Okay, let's talk about the next thing, we have permission to go to certain places in Buckingham Palace that are not open to tourists. For the filming, Her Majesty the Queen also lent Barmore Palace. However, all personnel involved in the filming must first report to the Intelligence Service, and at the same time, do not bring anything that may be misleading - especially when filming at Buckingham Palace I don’t want to be kicked out because of some daredevil before filming is done.”

"Then can you make a list for us, Miss Angela?" an assistant raised his hand and asked.

"Of course." Angela nodded, and then thought of something else, "In addition, you must also submit a list of belongings, and it is best not to have anything other than the list on your body. Again, don't let the crew Get in trouble."

"Has it always been like this, Miss Angela?" Another assistant asked.

"It will be very strict when shooting inside Buckingham Palace, and it will be slightly better after going to Balamore. In short, as long as everyone pays attention to words and deeds, there should be no problem." Angela explained.

Frankly speaking, Angela would have chosen to set up the set in the studio if she had known that filming at Buckingham Palace would be such a hassle.It's a pity that it's a done deal. The Queen has agreed to lend Buckingham Palace and Balamore Palace, so she can't release her pigeons, right?

So Angela can only apply for the report step by step according to the procedure. Fortunately, people have already made preparations from the beginning of filming, otherwise it will definitely take a lot of time to find a solution when the matter is imminent.

Even so, it was still a hassle to go to Buckingham Palace to film.This is not surprising. Although some areas are open to tourists, it does not mean that safety issues have not been taken seriously, nor does it mean that going to those closed areas will be as easy as the open area, like the plot in "National Treasure 2" Only in movies.

In short, according to Angela's private words afterwards: this is a terrible decision.Think about it, whenever you want to make adjustments, there will always be someone watching your every move; if you step out of the designated position, someone will come to remind you "kindly"; Whenever someone strays into the camera, because he can't leave his position at will!Everyone else was okay, but as a director, Angela almost went crazy because of it.

Who can blame this?After all, even the reporters who often come to Buckingham Palace have never been to the place where the crew went deep.Therefore, after procrastinating and procrastinating, it was easy to finish shooting some shots and leave those at night, and Angela led everyone to quickly evacuate Buckingham Palace - if shooting at night, there will only be more constraints than during the day.

Although the filming of this scene was extremely troublesome, it was not without gains. At least the old lady Helen stood in front of the camera and was a lively Queen Elizabeth II. At the same time, she mixed with the feeling of an old grandmother. I have to say that her acting skills are very good.Therefore, after Angela finished filming the remaining night scenes of the palace in the set up, she immediately adjusted the arrangement and took the crew to the field near Claridge Stone Castle, which belonged to her grandfather, to shoot the most important set of shots.

This scene was supposed to be filmed in Balamore, but Angela was already terrified of being restrained in Buckingham Palace, even though she knew that going to the palace would make her feel better.Anyway, Albert's Claridge Castle and Barramore Palace are not far away, it is cheaper than leasing the royal family's territory - and it is also very convenient.

"No, no, that's not right." Angela shook her head like a rattle. This was the third time she had rejected the assistant's proposal.After pinching her chin and thinking for a while, she suddenly looked at Helen: "What do you think of the plot, Helen?"

"Me?" The old lady raised her eyebrows and answered after thinking for a few seconds: "Her Majesty is a very strong woman. She participated in World War II and received military training to drive and repair jeeps. The country's first person The second has always been her motto, she retains the reservedness and reserve that the British should have, and these also lead her to be good at burying her feelings in her heart."

"That's right!" Angela clapped her hands suddenly, "Although we all know that Prince Philip is His Majesty's closest companion, and His Majesty will tell him anything. But the long-term accumulated depression is not so easy to get rid of, let alone Prince Philip. Her to Princess Diana... In short, at this moment, she may explode emotionally. The problem is that this degree must be controlled just right, although I said that the other side, the possible real side, should be shown to everyone , but... Andy!"

Angela suddenly shouted loudly, and the photographer ran over immediately: "Do you have any orders, Miss Angela."

"I want you to blur the previous controversial shot during the shooting later, understand?" After the photographer nodded to express his understanding, Angela looked at Helen again: "Helen, you are still the same, but this time Don't cry."

Speaking of which, she glanced at someone in the crowd, clapped her hands, and then said in a more serious tone, "I need to give the audience a blurry and unsure shot, and at the same time, this can also convey a message: Even if His Majesty will cry, he will not let you cry." People can see it. Because she is the head of the Commonwealth, the symbol of the royal family and the keeper of the tradition!"

As Angela's thoughts suddenly cleared up, this controversial and contradictory scene passed in a flash. After all, the scene was blurred and no acting skills were needed at all.

"Are you satisfied?" During the break, Angela flipped through her schedule and glanced at the man next to him with the brim of his hat pressed down. Although he felt that he was trying to cover up his behavior, she couldn't say much.

"Not bad," the other party nodded, and then quickly added, "I mean your script."

"Then who just came to me and said something, the scene where the tears flowed was not good?" Angela gave him a blank look.

"This..." The other party touched his nose in embarrassment, "I just mentioned that at the time, after all..."

"I know, I actually feel the same way, that's why I repeated the shooting several times, otherwise, do you think your dissatisfaction can make me change my mind?" Angela looked up at him, "But others won't do that I think, William, so get out before the crew finishes shooting this wild scene?"

"Hey, did I come here to apologize?" William scratched his head angrily, "I know my attitude was terrible at the time, but no matter who heard my... my friend wanted to send his mother's funeral I won’t accept it calmly after it’s on the big screen. Besides, I’ve listened to your explanation and read your script, and I already roughly understand what you think, so I sincerely apologize to you. You can’t just because… ..."

"I'm not angry, William," Angela tapped on the table lightly, "In fact, I would be very surprised if you were not angry. You can use the phone to apologize, in fact, you will choose at this time Sneak up to see I've proven it. You know how sensitive it is for me to film this subject. What else are you doing here? Really think the crew doesn't recognize you? Help, William, don't let There are insinuations in the papers about 'Prince William visiting the crew' and what you're using to influence my reporting."

"Damn it, I'm just..." William covered his forehead in depression, rolled his eyes and said again: "Actually, I just want to come and see if I can play myself in this movie..."

"Out!" Angela suddenly raised her voice, and William, who still wanted to chatter a few words, hurried out.

Well, this is just a small episode. After driving away the apologetic William who "deliberately" dressed up in disguise, Angela devoted herself to filming again.After finishing the field shots, the crew immediately came to Balamore Palace. The advantage of on-site shooting is that you don’t have to worry about reporters sneaking in to take pictures. You must know that although this period of time is calmer than the beginning, there are still some opportunities. Many pairs of eyes were fixed on the crew.

Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages. For the crew members, accommodation is really a big problem. If Angela hadn't rented a few RVs and parked outside the palace, they would have to spend at least 2 to 3 hours in the car every day.Angela herself does not have such a problem, after all, her identity is there and she has not never been to Balamore, so she can choose from so many rooms.This makes it convenient to do certain things without too many people around.

When the heavy object fell on the bed, there was a sound of giggles, and after a few indistinct murmurs, there was the sound of tsk-tsk kisses.In the dim light, two slender bodies with slightly disheveled clothes were lying on the bed one after another, embracing intimately, sharing each other's feelings with their lips.

"Long time no see, miss me?" Angela, who pressed her lips together, stood up a little, stroked Keira's face and asked condescendingly.Keira smiled cutely and charmingly, without saying anything, wrapped her arms around Angela's neck and blocked her mouth again, and answered the other's question with a passionate kiss.

After another lingering, the enthusiasm between the two of them diminished a bit, and then Keira showed a nervous look: "This is the queen's palace, so we... won't be discovered?"

"Isn't it a bit late to think of this now?" Angela raised her eyebrows, and raised Keira's chin frivolously.

"It's not because of you!" Keira angrily turned her head and looked away.

"Okay," Angela smiled and kissed her on the cheek, "Do you think paparazzi would dare to install bugs and surveillance devices in the queen's palace? That's what spies would do. As for the servants, don't worry at all, tomorrow is the weekend and I have already told them not to disturb you."

"It seems that you have prepared everything?" Keira snorted softly.

"Of course, I miss you." Angela's hand slid across the girl's tender face, and then comforted her all the way down, and finally lifted her skirt to go deep.Keira's breathing suddenly became rapid, and her eyes began to flash with excitement.

But at this moment, there was a light knock on the door, and the two women on the bed who were about to make a move froze for a moment, and then whispered in unison: "Damn it."

"It's all you!" Keira, with a blush on her face, looked at Angela and said angrily.

"Hey, what do you call me? You obviously didn't choose the right time, but you came with her." Angela raised her eyebrows, and moved her lower hand slightly.

Keira immediately snorted softly, glared at the other party angrily and was thinking about how to get revenge, when the low knock on the door rang again.Obviously, the people outside the door were determined to come in.

"Aren't you going to open the door?" Keira asked angrily, suppressing her lust.

"I'll go right away," Angela said, patting her face, "Okay, don't worry, I'll send her away with two or three sentences, and then continue to do what we should do."

Keira snorted with a smile, then sat up with Angela, tidied up her clothes and calmed down to make herself appear normal before coming to the door when the third knock sounded.

"Hi, Xia Xia, are you still up so late?" Angela asked with a smile, looking at the little girl standing outside the door in pink pajamas covered with Winnie the Pooh.

"I want to come and see you—hey, Kayla, are you there?" Xia Xia looked at Kayla next to Angela with some surprise, "Great, I just wanted to talk to you before going to bed, okay Come in?"

"Hmm... ah... of course..." Angela hesitated a few times and finally gave way, and then rolled her eyes helplessly at Keira, who was biting her lip after the little girl entered the room.
