As soon as I arrived on the crew, and even had no time to introduce myself, Lan Li and Jessica had already begun to discuss roles and performances. These two people really interpret what is called joking. From this perspective, those Not all negative rumors against Lan Li are all wrong.

The two little guys MacKenzie and Timothy have noticed this scene. Although they are both minors, they still belong to the category of children; but for the performance, they have begun to breed their own thoughts and ideas, like a sponge, as long as they encounter With the right guidance, the potential can be more tapped.

After entering the wooden house, McKenzie surreptitiously sat down on Jessica's side, like a harmless baby, sitting next to him silently and listening-many times when parents were talking or arguing, It is easy to ignore the existence of children, which is why.

Timothy, on the other hand, kept dangling near the sofa at the door, looking like he was playing idle, but his ears were always elongated, like a little mouse eavesdropping in the corner, and his constant dodge eyes were completely concealed— -Is it invisible without staring at each other?

Jessica's gaze noticed the melancholy and nervous look on Timothy's face. After all, she didn't hold it back, and chuckled softly, "Timothy, come and sit here. What we are discussing is nothing. Trade secrets, you can come over if you like, just like McKenzie."

Mackenzie sitting next to him, arched his back as hard as he could, stuffed himself into the sponge on the back of the sofa chair to conceal his existence, but suddenly realized that his whereabouts were no longer a secret, so he couldn't help but vomit. He stuck his tongue out and made a grimace, but still quietly straightened his waist, and began to "sneak" openly.

Timothy still has some hesitation in his footsteps. After being exposed to the trick, he scratched his head shyly and awkwardly. His face was still filled with a brilliant smile to conceal his jerky, his footsteps hovering near the gate, his sight secretly He glanced at Lan Li, and then saw the smile at the corner of Lan Li's mouth. After obtaining approval, he walked over quickly and sat down beside him.

In fact, Lan Li also noticed the changes between the two little guys, but he didn't take the initiative to bring them forward. In this regard, the perspectives and handling of women and men are still different after all.

Lan Li turned his head and looked at Jessica again, "I'm considering cutting down the branches of Cooper's role to make the performance purer and more focused."

Jessica showed a curious look, "Why? In'gravity', Alfonso's director is doing subtraction, while your performance is doing addition. Through the interlacing of performance and camera, the core is burst out. The sublimation of the motif, in my opinion, the intentions of Chris and Alfonso are essentially the same."

"The same thing between Chris and Alfonso is that they both hope to reflect a magnificent and huge motif through human emotions." Lan Li nodded in agreement, and then further explained, "But The difference is that the final footholds of the two are completely different."

In "gravity", Alfonso uses space to survive to reflect the origin of life. According to the original script, there is nothing wrong with this. However, in the actual interpretation, Lan Li has unearthed more content of the two characters, giving the film more philosophical thinking: Who am I? Where did it come from? Where to go?

This is undoubtedly a further explanation of the origin of life, giving the movie a deeper meaning.

In "Interstellar Transition", Christopher uses the time folding of the wormhole to reflect human emotions. It can be simply understood as: Is there everlasting eternity in the vicissitudes of life? The definition of emotion in the script is very intuitive and simple: the affection between Cooper and a pair of children, especially the bond between Cooper and Murphy, whether this emotion will become thin with the passage of time, or even To dissipate? Furthermore, will faith die?

In other words, the foothold of "gravity" is life, while the foothold of "interstellar crossing" is emotion. The former can give more philosophical interpretation, while the latter needs to be simpler and purer.

In fact, this is similar to the motif of Inception.

What "Pirate Dream Space" is discussing is whether there are still fetters in reality that make those dream builders come back again? The "Interstellar Transit" discusses whether there are still fetters on the earth that allow those interstellar travelers to break the shackles of time and return again?

In the script of the Nolan Brothers, the whole core idea revolves around the emotion between Cooper and Murphy, which does not require too many branches to modify——

Why are Cooper and Murphy so close? What happened between Cooper and his wife? How alienated is the emotion between Cooper and Tom? Why is Murphy willing to trust his father wholeheartedly? What kind of belief is it that makes the bond between Cooper and Murphy unbreakable? Why did Cooper still choose to come back? Why did Murphy wait so hard?

All of this is a burden.

Affection.

Just this one answer is enough. It is not that they are unwilling to explore and expand in depth, but because the script hopes to explore the most primitive emotional fetters of human beings, and contrast with the most primitive world structures such as time and space, which can be understood as the collision and confrontation between rationality and sensibility.

If things are complicated, for example, Murphy hates his mother and becomes fettered with his father; another example is that after Cooper loses his wife, he finds the projection of his wife in Murphy; another example is the relationship between Cooper and Murphy He has a common interest in science, so that two people have more time to get along with each other... When the reasons such as this come out, things lose their original pure texture.

The purpose of cutting branches is to further highlight the conflict between emotion and time. It is fair to compare the two most essential and pure things at once.

In addition, the director's style is also a very important reference factor.

Although Alfonso is not a director who is good at tuning/teaching actors, his shots can always show the emotions of characters and stories keenly.

Whether it is "Son of Humanity" or "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban", or even Alfonso's early films, he is always able to show the flow of emotions, loneliness and sadness through the temperament and characteristics of the image. , Despair, pain, etc. The construction of light and lens can leave more blanks and aftertaste for the audience to fill in.

Of course, the performance of the actors is even more important.

Christopher is another kind of director. He is good at presenting the diversity of stories through shot scheduling, rhythm control, and editing splicing.

In Christopher’s movies, emotions and characters are relatively weak parts. What he often presents is a single emotion, the loneliness of "Inception", the struggle of the "Dark Knight", the sacrifice of "fatal magic", and the "following". Loneliness, and so on, but after the emotions start to become complicated, he tends to lose control easily.

Therefore, Christopher had to direct the script he wrote, because the characters, emotions, and story could all be under control; the overall quality of the adaptation of the script "Chasing the Murder in the White Night" was obviously weak. On the whole, Christopher is a director who is good at telling stories, but not a director who is good at talking about emotions.

Therefore, the actor needs to cooperate with Christopher's scheduling and integrate it with the story as much as possible. If the actor plays too much by himself, it is easy to break the structure of the whole work. On the contrary, if the actor pushes his emotions further on Christopher's setting, he will win a wide range of play space-the "Dark Knight" clown will put himself The madness of both righteousness and evil has been brought to the extreme, with no extra emotions, but three points.

There is no derogatory malice, but an objective statement: starring in a work directed by Christopher, the work of the actors is relatively simple, they only need to follow the framework of the script role, which is enough. In fact, this is similar to Alfred Hitchcock-

This horror film master prefers performance-based acting. Fear is fear, and panic is panic. He hopes that the actor will not have any extra thoughts of his own, and appear in the right position at the right time like a chess piece according to his own settings. His film can achieve the desired effect. Therefore, Alfred always sneered at the method of acting.

In "gravity", Lanly needs to do addition; in "interstellar crossing", Lanly needs to do subtraction.

What is subtraction?

"Just focus on family affection. There is a bond of faith between Cooper and Murphy. He tries to go home, and he wants to go home. This is the only idea. No reason, no story. Cooper's So I love Murphy because Murphy is his daughter; and the reason why Murphy believes in Cooper is because Cooper is her father. It's that simple."

Lan Li expounded his views and opinions ~www.novelhall.com~ Starring in "Interstellar Crossing" will be a new challenge. Lan Li will use the performance-based acting for the first time to put into the performance, reducing the branch of method-based acting as much as possible. , It is enough to show the delicate, moving and profound emotions.

In the previous life, Matthew McConaughey’s performance failed to do this. He tried to add more details to the character, but these details were all submerged in Christopher’s shots, and eventually became useless. On the contrary, This makes Cooper played by Ma modified to stay out of the story, which affects the connection between the audience and the movie.

It's not that Matthew is not good enough, it's just that the method is not suitable. Christopher is not good at tuning/teaching the acting side, and you can see a little bit from here: he didn't realize that Matthew's method was not suitable for this movie.

Of course, this is just Lan Li's personal thoughts.

Lanly’s explanation came to a paragraph for the time being, Jessica fell into her own thinking, carefully savoring the words just now, "You mean, we only need to show that kind of emotion, and then in This kind of emotion deepens step by step, continuously magnifying the belief in longing and love, right?"
