Octavia Spencer voices Mrs. Otterton in "Zoo City".

4. The film was mainly shot on Bull Street in Savannah.

5. "Girl Genius" was nominated for the 2014 Hollywood Blacklist, and the screenwriter was Tom Flynn. In March 2015, at the Montalban Theatre in Hollywood, the 2014 blacklist of Hollywood scripts was announced.

Note: Screenplay blacklist is a screenplay blacklist" is a list selected by hundreds of senior Hollywood practitioners, covering the most popular but not yet filmed outstanding plays in the eyes of the judges.

6. After the filming was almost over, Chris Evans began to be with Jenny Slater, and the two broke up a year later.

Regarding the feelings and problems in this translation:

Feeling: The fifth article has been translated for a long time, because I don’t know what the "Black list" means about the script, and I only learned it through Wikipedia.

Question: Regarding translation, the last tidbit, the original English text is:

After filming head ended, Chris Evans and Jenny Slate began a relationship and broke up almost a year later.

What does the filming head mean? People who know, please say it.

What I understand is the main part of the film, because head means head, so the extended meaning should have the main meaning. So I translated it into "After the filming is almost over".

I translated from IMDB. Original English address http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4481414/trivia?ref_=tt_trv_trv
