"Gravity" is a unique work. Before we formally understand the character, we must understand the creative background of the entire story and the finished effect that the director is trying to present.

From the perspective of the drama story, in fact, "gravity" is the space version of "buried alive". The main line and core of the story is escape. Under the cosmic environment, a thrilling alternative room escape is staged, with ups and downs and twists and turns. His survival journey has made an outstanding commercial work.

If only this is the case, "gravity" is far from being a masterpiece. There is not much difference between it and "buried alive". The style and theme of the story are the same. So, Lan Li's performance is just repeating himself, it is not necessary at all. This is not an exploration of acting skills, let alone an improvement of acting skills, but a stepping in place, or even driving backwards.

But in fact, "Buried alive" is an excellent work, but "Gravity" is a classic worthy of being recorded in the annals of history. Not only is Alfonso Cuarón's breakthrough in technology, but also the core idea of ​​the whole movie and the sublimation of the final chapter.

From the standpoint of the audience, the performances of "gravity" and "buried alive" are actually the same. The despair in the secret room, the anger in desperation, the giving up after the pressing step, and the letting go when hope is rekindled. Stroke, the emotions that are intertwined with pressure and tension, are very similar to the feelings conveyed after the screen shots are revealed.

But from the standpoint of actors and directors, the two works are completely different. Because the starting points of the characters are different, because the directors have different demands, and because the characters’ mental journeys are also different.

During the filming of "Transcendence" before, Lan Li experienced this kind of self-polishing process, which was in the scene of his first encounter with Erica on the bus.

The changes in Henry's inner emotions' starting point, turning point, and end point will inevitably trigger a series of chain changes when they collide with the outside world, which will then generate more chemical reactions to the plot and story, and even enhance the core of the theme. Naturally, the actor's performance appeal and penetration are also different.

These differences in details, for the audience, it is difficult for them to tell the reason, they can't see clearly or touch them, even professional film critics are no exception; but for actors, they are very important, especially in polishing their acting skills. in the process of.

Now, the difference between "Buried alive" and "Gravity" can also be explained in the same way.

In the work "Buried Alive", the male protagonist Paul Conroy is a blue-collar driver. In an accident, he became the scapegoat and victim of a war game.

In the process of surviving, the shirk from the government, the indifference from the company, and the disputes from the family all made Paul suffer. It is not so much that he is struggling to survive, as it is a member of the whole society. Only the ants became cannon fodder insignificantly.

This is also the appeal of director Roderick Scott. Through this work, it reflects contemporary wars and social issues, and mocks lies from the White House. Therefore, during the performance, the inner driving force is the emotional fetters and the powerlessness of the little people in society; that kind of despair permeates step by step.

In the work "Gravity", the actor Ryan Stone is a high intellectual. In an accident, he passively fell into a dilemma in space. If we say, the story of "buried alive" carries people. For indirect accidents, the "gravity" story is much purer, accidents are just accidents.

The same purity continues into the story.

In the process of surviving, Ryan is fighting against himself, without the involvement of social background, and the promotion of family factors, that kind of total loneliness and loneliness has become the main theme of the whole movie. In the "buried alive", a mobile phone becomes the connection point between the hero and the outside world, while in the space environment of "gravity", there is really nothing left.

So, what is the core factor that plagues Ryan—or core motivation?

In the story of the previous life, Sandra Bullock played the role of Ryan Stone. The accidental death of her daughter cut off Ryan's connection with society. She began to work frantically, forgetting to sleep and eat, and gradually numb herself, and her survival began to lose its meaning.

Therefore, Ryan fell into a desperate situation, and she experienced such a mental journey:

In the beginning, everything is instinct to survive/react, just like a drowning person. The first reaction of instinct/instinct is to kick and breathe; then, after struggling and working hard, she starts to give up deep in her heart because she can’t find it. The meaning of survival has gradually fallen into the pain and torment of the past.

In the end, I woke up again and felt the call from survival again. It fits the instinct/instincts of nature and human beings. Everything starts from scratch. To survive again, let go, and then find the meaning of life-like the heart. Generally, always beating and never giving up.

Sandra's performance is undoubtedly wonderful. She gave Ryan Stone more fragility and tenderness from a female perspective, and then she was re-energized and strengthened again. This flexible force successfully nurtured life and opened up a ray of life, guiding Ryan back to the earth.

Such a mental journey is far simpler and purer than the political/government demands of "buried alive", but it is also more magnificent and larger, which also brings the overall quality of "gravity" to a whole new level.

In particular, the audience’s feelings during the viewing process, from loneliness and loneliness to igniting hope, from fragility and collapse to perseverance, the whole emotion is stripped of all external influences, completely focused on the emotional dialogue between soul and soul, which is enough to touch The shock of the soul. Break away from the shallow level of "buried alive" and enter a higher stage.

It can be understood that "buried alive" pays more attention to empathy.

Focusing on people like Paul Conroy who were implicated in the war, deceived by the White House, abandoned by the company, and forgotten by society, they were full of anger. They tried their best to oppose the war, but became victims. Not out, and then was sacrificed just like this. For this category of people, when watching a movie, they will involuntarily substitute into it, and then enter the director's mood and rhythm.

But for the upper class or highly educated and highly qualified people, such themed works cannot move them-because they are the group of people criticized in the movie.

On the other hand, "gravity" pays more attention to empathy and sublimation.

The film does not focus on any kind of people-although Ryan Stone is also social, the film focuses all the focus on Ryan's original emotions. After stripping off the social attributes, returning to the most primitive and basic human emotions, this is applicable to anyone.

Regardless of age, class, education, culture, wealth and other additional conditions, everyone is suffering from their own difficulties, loneliness, pain, struggle and even numbness; at the same time, everyone is also trying to survive, even those The same is true for people who have thoughts of suicide in their minds. The thoughts of survival and destruction are always fighting each other.

This is like a philosophical question. Maybe not everyone can think about it, but it can be felt everywhere in life. Therefore, the movie can awaken everyone's empathy.

From an artistic point of view, "buried alive" is still discussing life, while "gravity" is already discussing the universe and nature.

In other words, getting rid of the plot of the story and the character itself, "Buried alive" brings a kind of thrill/sense of a horror movie, while "Gravity" brings a kind of rooted deep in the soul. Shocked, truly marveled at the greatness of life. But on the other hand, these differences in viewing experience are themselves caused by the plots of the story and the characters.

Going back to the original point again, standing above the audience, watching "Buried alive" and "Gravity", not to mention the viewing effect and the quality of the finished product, but the tension and horror during the viewing process are similar. They are also paying attention to a person's self-survival journey after falling into a desperate situation. The ups and downs of the process are the focus of watching movies.

But what is the difference between the two works?

First, in the process of watching the movie, the personal senses are different. Watching "buried alive" is a sense of parallelism. You and the character are equal ~www.novelhall.com~ and watching "gravity" is a sense of looking up. , Tiny in front of the universe.

Second, after watching the movie, reflection and aftertaste are completely different. The topic of "gravity" will enter a higher and deeper level; of course, even if you simply look at the effect of popcorn, because the whole shock is The actual experience that directly affects the depths of the soul has also multiplied.

These two differences come from the performance of the actors, rather than the structure of the play itself.

Undoubtedly, this makes a very harsh distinction for actors. This is especially true for Lan Li.

Prior to this, "Buried Alive" had achieved great success and won an Oscar nomination, which can be regarded as his famous work; now, Lan Li has once again challenged a similar work. If it is not enough, the audience may fall into In the cliché of "re-applying the old technique", he believes that Lan Li's performance has not broken through, and even repeats himself, which affects the perception of the whole work.

As a gimmick, Lan Li can already imagine that the media will inevitably call "gravity" as "buried alive" in space. This is the usual propaganda method used by reporters and is irrelevant; but if the audience really thinks so, it is Lan. Li's performance failed.

The difference in details slowly penetrates into the performance of the actors, and presents different textures and styles, giving the whole work a more three-dimensional feeling, distinguishing "gravity" from "buried alive". This is the serious challenge for Lanly.

It can even be said that this is the biggest challenge for Lan Li to rise from the shadows, because he not only needs to surpass the original Sandra Bullock of the previous life, but also needs to surpass his own "buried alive", and distinguish the two works, and at the same time The magnificent meaning of "gravity" needs to be interpreted.

The performance is so difficult, just a brain replenishment, it makes people gear up.
