Roy watched the figure drift away. That's not Lan Li.

The back figure did not slumped listlessly, but tried to straighten the waist. You can notice the straight waist and the slightly hardened shoulders. The slightly tight muscles are pulling on the line of the suit jacket, revealing it faintly. The traces of exertion, but even so, the spine still seems unable to be fully upright, and the thin shoulders are heavily moved forward and inward, as if... as if under an extremely heavy pressure, the invisible pressure almost It is necessary to crush the fragile bones.

The calm side face is always bright under the light and shadow, the cigarette at the corner of the mouth hangs low, there is no smoke, but it outlines a touch of loneliness and loneliness between the eyebrows, lightly lingering in the deep eyes. There is no special expression, it is like a calm lake, but the corners of the mouth with the slight tugging of cigarettes have shallow ripples, and there always seems to be emotions surging under the unfathomable dark green lake, which is unclear. , Tao is unknown, but it always exists.

Without special effort and outline, the whole performance state is completely natural and flowing, and there is no trace of carving between the gestures. More importantly, the seemingly ordinary performance makes every audience bitter. Roy can't describe it exactly. The man in front of him is not sad, desperate, or painful, and there is not even a trace of waves, but the ubiquitous but indescribable emotion is like a boulder, cruel. The ground pressed against his chest, making people breathless in the silence.

Roy couldn't believe his brain: he didn't say anything, but he seemed to say everything; he didn't act, but he seemed to have everything in place. This is the only thought in his mind at the moment, but this kind of self-contradictory statement, even if he himself finds it ridiculous, he doesn't know what kind of performance it is, as if...as if the man went from soul to appearance. , Truly existed, truly experienced the turbulent waves and vicissitudes of life, truly returned to calm and ordinary, and truly appeared before his eyes.

Five seconds? Or ten seconds? In just a few breaths, Lan Li transformed into a completely unfamiliar image, and that handsome face seemed to become ordinary, it was definitely not Lan Li. Even though he witnessed everything on the spot, Roy still couldn't believe his eyes—

It's just that Roy still has some uncertainty. Is this Henry Bart?

"Beyond" is the first work after Roy and Lan Li cooperated. In order to be fully prepared, he read the script several times, not only to understand the characters, the script, and the shooting process, but also to understand the blue Li style, and artistic form. Therefore, Roy also has a deep understanding of Henry's role, but Roy is not sure about the performance just now.

"card!"

Tony's shout interrupted the filming, and there was a buzzing sound of discussion on the set. Not amazing, but surprised, or disappointed. Lan Li's performance was not as earth-shattering as he had imagined.

Yes, they know that this scene is inherently simple; yes, they know that it is not realistic to explode in acting on the first day of power-on; yes, they know that it is difficult to see anything in the scene of just a few seconds. They all know this. But under the prestige, they always look forward to something special, novel, and eye-catching. Even they don't know what they are looking forward to.

For Sammy and other amateur actors, it was even more confusing, and I didn't understand it at all.

Tony walked forward quickly, frowned and came to Lan Li, without any pause or hesitation, and asked bluntly, "What the **** was going on just now? Sadness? I want sadness and despair! Where is your performance?" Tony's temper came up directly, the tone was very heavy, the impetuous words did not cover up, and the question was angry, and he rushed up with an aggressive posture.

Lan Li opened his mouth and was about to explain, but Tony seemed to light firecrackers and went on cracklingly, "What I need is not a handsome guy, standing there and posing and acting handsome, what I need is an actor. A real actor, a real show! If I want to find a model, there will be a lot of New York Fashion Week, and it’s not your turn. Please give me something real, okay? Henry is a desperate man, he Already overwhelmed by sorrow, almost suffocating! What was that you just now? Lost lamb? **** Christ, even the lost Bambi, his eyes are more energetic than you!"

Lan Li gave up his defense, but let Tony continue to vent.

In fact, this is not unexpected. Whether it was just shooting directly without communication and rehearsal, or the recklessness and impulsiveness of the first meeting before, or the urgency and directness of several exchanges, everything can be seen. , Tony is an inexperienced person, in his dictionary, there is nothing to take care of face, or what kind of greetings. Art, this is the only thing he cares about. Everything is related to art, and it is only related to art.

What's more, Tony's temper is also irritable and jumpy. The first scene was not satisfactory, and Tony's reaction was not surprising.

But for the rest of the crew, this is an unexpected accident. The reason why the first scene is so special is that in order to be able to win a lottery, the director and crew will choose a scene that is relatively easy to shoot to ensure a smooth passage.

It is precisely because of this that the smooth passage of the first scene seems to have become a common rule, and the crew have gradually become accustomed to it, taking it for granted that the first scene will definitely pass directly, so that the first scene only The symbolic meaning is left, and it is often just a formality, and everyone will immediately devote themselves to the following work.

Not to mention the first scene, most of the shooting on the first day was like this, relatively simple.

Suddenly, there was a problem in the first scene, and people would inevitably be stunned. The turbulent waves brought about by the huge contrast were almost hard to conceal. Then, they saw Tony who was furious and thunderous, and the members of the crew could not help but shut their mouths and looked panicked.

People are hurriedly exchanging sights, even Roy and Nathan are no exception, no one knows what happened. The first scene is so simple, but Lan Li's performance is so abnormal. Is it because the previous busy publicity of "Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion 5" made Lan Li lose his state, and he has never been able to take care of it? Or was it because of the sudden popularity that Lan Li's mentality was still out of balance and swelled?

But what is certain is that no matter what the reason is, the first scene is unfavorable. This is definitely not good news for the crew.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere of the crew became weird. The students in the teaching building even held their breaths, put them on the windows, and cast their sights carefully and excitedly. Are they about to fight? Is there a good show to watch? Is it going to be a hot scene?

"Say something!" Tony watched Lan Li stand still on the spot without saying a word. The calmness on his face did not disappear. This made Tony's temper even more and more. He was just anxious, but now he is a little angry. The right hand holding the script began to wave in the air, foaming in the mouth.

Lan Li did not provoke Tony’s authority and gave up his intention to play humor. Instead, he said directly, "My understanding of the character is different." As Lan Li expected, hearing the discussion about art, Tony's temper was temporarily released. Slowed down, lifted his chin, and said breathlessly, "Then what's your understanding?"

"Henry's sadness and despair are an emotion that slowly penetrates from his bones to his soul. He has given up struggling, or, in other words, he thought he had given up struggling. But we can look at his behavior-he became A teacher tried to bring hope to more children within the scope of his own ability, but refused to get entangled with these children. Before the emotional entanglement, he got away and continued to repeat the previous actions in another school. To put it simply, he is sowing the seeds of hope, but he does not want to continue nurturing. Why?"

Lan Li's long talk silenced Tony. He raised his right hand, supported his chin, and fell into contemplation.

The perspectives of directors, screenwriters, and actors are completely different, and the artistic expressions presented are also different. Communication is a prerequisite for the success of a film. How many film works are destroyed in this link. Tony and Renly are also facing this problem.

"In the script, Henry and three different female characters are used to show his inner emotions little by little.

Faced with Sarah’s proactive gesture, Henry’s retreat showed his coldness and alienation. He knew that he was in a bad position and he could not respond to other people’s emotional calls for help.

Facing Meredith’s help, Henry’s hesitation showed his fear and despair. He was trying to help Meredith, but he was worried that there would be more emotional entanglement between the two people. He was unable to treat anyone. responsible for.

Facing Erica’s invasion, Henry’s numbness showed his sadness and bitterness. Erica approached step by step. He passively offered help, but he did not dare to go further, because he saw in Erica the past Of yourself.

Different relationships show different emotions. Little by little, he showed Henry's emotions. Before meeting these people, to be precise, before the change in his life state, Henry carefully wrapped himself up and lived in his own world, carefully converging all his emotions, like a wandering soul, losing his vitality. , But still reluctant to leave, just wandering without any sense of existence. "

"You mean, this is what you want to show? An effect that looks like stagnant water?" Tony said, finally understanding what Lan Li meant.
