Jennifer knew that Langley was serious, very serious.
In the world of performance, there is no shortcut or secret. The methods and skills are clearly presented. Everyone can achieve something if they devote themselves to it and polish themselves well. As for acting talent, the difference it brings is only the difference between top actors and excellent actors. Of course, the old dramatists that are worthy of being recorded in history may only come out in ten years.
But in the Hollywood spotlight, no one cares. Or more accurately, no one wants to be a good actor, but a top star. The dream of becoming famous overnight and the fairy tale of sparrow becoming Phoenix are always popular.
Jennifer wants to be a star, but she wants to be an actor more.
"Thank you." "Winter's bone," she said sincerely, was a little complacent after receiving so many praises in Sundance, but now it's quiet again. There are mountains outside the mountains.
Lanli obviously didn't expect such an answer. He knows more clearly than anyone how attractive Hollywood's brilliance and attention are to young people, not to mention Jennifer. Even if he is an "old" guy of two generations, he will inevitably feel some emotion. But in front of her, Jennifer brought a surprise.
"My pleasure." Blue Li nodded in response with a smile.
That modest, sincere, yet calm expression made Jennifer chuckle, pretending to dig in her pocket, "come on, let me light your cigarette for you." It's like a dogleg.
Lan Li laughed directly and looked at the cigarette between his fingers. "No, it's just a medium for thinking and relaxing."
Before Jennifer could ask about the story behind it, Drake's voice came, "actors, are you ready? We can start shooting! "
Today, the scene has changed the shooting site, so there is no need to worry about the harassment of the neighbors. In the movie, after graduation, Jacob opened his own furniture design studio and rented a small warehouse with a staircase leading to the second floor compartment. He turned it into his bedroom, and the downstairs was full of furniture design and production tools.
Drake also rented the small warehouse through a friend's introduction. The other party was very generous, but symbolically charged 50 dollars for water and electricity.
"I think that's the call to us." Lanli pointed in the direction of the sound source and said with a smile, "we'd better hurry."
"Of course!" Jennifer couldn't wait. She stood up immediately and rubbed her palm gently. Her eager exultation sparkled under her eyes.
Two people came to the center of the studio. Drake himself came up to tell the whole shooting process. Then he noticed the excitement of Jennifer and began to laugh. "Calm down, calm down, little beauty, this scene is not your time to show your strength."
But Jennifer raised her chin with pride. "A really good actor can grasp every detail of every play. I'm not going to relax easily
This made Drake dumbfounded, turned around, patted Langley on the shoulder, didn't say much, but the trust in his eyes was very clear. However, in just a few days, Langley's outstanding performance has already convinced Drake - even more profound than when he was at triliureid.
Lan Li sat down in front of his desk and laid out the design drawings, which were a little messy. Then there were some paper fragments piled up beside him. After thinking about it carefully, he sorted out all the design drawings and put them in order. Then there were only two paper fragments left in the paper fragments.
After the breakup, Jacob's psychological state should be dull and depressed, even when he is working, he seems absent-minded; But when Sam moved in, the studio was in order. Sam's first line was to ask if Jacob needed to iron his jeans. He was obviously an expert at housework.
So, on the desk, everything else is clean and tidy, and only the part where Jacob himself just started working is chaotic. Then he continued to think about it. Lan Li found the knife from the pencil holder and sharpened the pencil on the waste paper nearby, leaving some scattered fragments.
In this life, when receiving education, Lan Li chose music. However, he also dabbled in art, sculpture, drama, novels and other art forms, mainly learning to appreciate. As for practice, lanli is not good at it. In their family, Edith is the one who is the best at art. But he has never eaten pork and has always seen pigs run. Lanli still knows something about Edith's working state. He didn't expect that it would be useful now.
So far, the preliminary preparation is complete.
Lan Li closed his eyes and adjusted his breath to let his thoughts settle down. In fact, the play itself is very simple. It's just a simple dialogue with Sam. However, the content of "crazy love" in the last life was so weak that the audience misunderstood Jacob.
In fact, Jacob and Anna have broken up, in order to cut off this relationship, wholeheartedly and Sam exchanges, Jacob forced himself not to contact Anna. But Anna can't resist the pain of Acacia after all. She begged and asked Jacob to pick up the phone and propose on the phone. Jacob made a choice, he and Sam confessed, because he knew that it was unfair to Sam, whether he was selfish or cruel, he chose to break up with Sam, and then went to London, married Anna, and started the long journey of seeking a visa.
How to present the state and struggle after the breakup to the audience in the shortest time and the narrowest space, and wait for the truth to be revealed, so that the audience suddenly realize, this is undoubtedly the biggest challenge of lanli.
The whole warehouse was in a quiet state. The crew had a certain understanding of lanli's working mode. They waited for the signal quietly. Then they saw lanli raise his hand and make an "OK" gesture. Drake hurried forward and yelled, "shoot!"
Jacob sat in front of his desk, bent his head and carefully drew the design drawing. He drew a smile at the corner of his mouth. It was sweet and happy, but the shallow radian was so gentle, and the drooping eyelashes could not hide the bright halo under his eyes. It seemed that he had the whole world. Even the lines of his shoulders became soft, and the white T-shirt was light and undulating, Make the air soft.
Drake was stunned. "It shouldn't be like this!" Jacob has broken up with Anna. He should be in great pain now; Jacob and Sam together is not love, just lonely dependence, he should not be so happy... But, why did lanli play like this, the happy appearance reminds him of the beautiful days of Jacob and Anna.
Drake hesitated and was not sure whether to shout "card". After struggling for a while, he decided to trust lenley for the time being and watch the follow-up performance. So Drake looked up and gave a signal to the assistant who was hiding next to the railing on the second floor, and Brian gave a signal to Jennifer.
Jennifer has entered the stage, nodding her head to show her understanding. Then she silently counts down three times and says, "do you want me to iron your jeans?"
Sam's voice broke the silence in the studio, and the flowing air was like a warm current, drawing a happy light between Jacob's eyebrows, "huh?" Jacob answered lazily, just like an old man and wife who have been married for 30 or 40 years. He automatically blocked each other's words, but he can always catch each other's voice. The ending rising gently, you can smell the sweet taste.
"Do you need me to iron your jeans?"
The voice became clear from far to near, and Jacob responded. He turned his head and looked at it. Then he saw Sam in his dark blue shirt, sticking his head out from the railing on the second floor, with a gentle smile on his face.
Jacob's eyes suddenly coagulated, just a moment, a millisecond's moment, but you can see the shock, consternation, panic, loss of emotion flashed by, mixed so sad, that dark brown eyes filled with a touch of sadness, fleeting.
The corner of his mouth gently pursed and raised, and then his eyes widened. He seemed to be seriously thinking about Sam's problem. The confusion between his eyebrows disappeared quietly, and he regained his composure. This time, however, it was different. Instead of the previous happiness and happiness, there was no surprise and sadness just now. Instead, it was polite, as if wearing a mask. The smile was even unnatural estrangement and astringency. The faint strangeness came to his face, but his real emotion had disappeared and completely hidden.
"Er..." Jacob drew a long ending and pondered, as if he was thinking about Aristotle's three laws. Then he raised his eyebrow and said, "OK." He said so.
Sam's smile on the corner of his mouth just went up. The little woman who fell in love made her face bloom with soft halo. She said, "OK" with her mouth. Then she turned to be busy. Her hands holding jeans in her hands could not help but gently close them. Even her feet became light.
Jacob pursed the corners of his mouth and showed a smile. When Sam turned away, his smile remained the same, but was tinged with bitterness and loneliness. He just stayed in the same place, looking at the second floor, Sam left the back, his eyes were dim, as if something was collapsing, showing a trace of confusion and confusion. There is no superfluous action, time stops at this moment, and his world seems to stop at this second forever.
Wordless pain, heartbroken loss, slowly spread in the air, a burst of pain.
