Day Three: Wednesday
I’m in Video Village.
Jemima, hair as yet undyed, comes over to show off her Marks.
I discover that all meals served on a movie set are “lunch.” Even if it’s two in the morning, it’s lunch. I eat lunch with Madame Dorothea. She is on her way to being a bit demony, so she has huge talons on her fingers. She is however a beautiful and classy lady. I feel guilty about her eventual fate.
There is not a lot
funnier than watching a whole bunch of Silent Brothers who have their mouths
stitched shut try to eat. They all end up consuming their “lunch” out of boxes
with straws.
Later Robert [Kulzer]
shows me the “greenhouse scene” on his iPad. I can’t hear the dialogue, but it
looks beautiful. Robert says, “I am a producer, which means my heart is cold
and dead, so if I find this romantic and affecting it must be great.” Fair
enough.
Shooting goes really
late. Hartley, who is the line producer, is caught sneaking hot chocolate to
fans lurking outside the studio. Apparently Hartley is a veteran of many films
and used to shooing people away, but the TMI fans are so
adorable that so far he has given them food and they’ve even had bracelets made
for the set visitors. Below is Kevin [Zegers] holding
one (it says THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS, 2O12):
“Hartley has been compromised,” says Robert. “The fans are just too
cute.”
