flighty and impetuous. Lanli scratched his hair hard, and then tried to untie the buttons on his shirt. But then he found that the top two buttons had already been untied, but he was still out of breath. This kind of feeling was terrible. The whole person was like a headless fly, rushing around, but he couldn't tell the direction clearly. Even if he wanted to vent, he couldn't find an outlet.
From the beginning of the "Pacific War", in the twinkling of an eye, Langley has already shot five works, which is really efficient. I can't say I have rich experience, but I'm not a rookie, but this time I've never met before.
During the shooting of "crazy love", when he returned to London, his state was affected. There was always a sense of detachment in his performance state, which required him to make more adjustments when he put into the performance. However, he always knew clearly what he was doing and where he was.
Later, he filmed "cancer fighting me". In the early stage, he obviously worked too hard. After he calmed down, he understood the role again and adjusted the rhythm of the performance, and things went back to the right track. From the beginning to the end, his thinking is clear.
But this time it was different. He can't step on the rhythm of the performance, and he can't find the performance state. What's more, he doesn't know what he is doing. It seems that there is a gap between the whole person and the role, and he can't build a bridge. This is absolutely the first time.
From an objective point of view, the performance just now is really good. The details, levels, depth and power of the performance are just right, not too exaggerated. At the same time, it keeps the whole mood full, showing all the pain and sadness. Precise control is not the peak state, but it is also accurate.
From a technical point of view, such a performance is enough. For this point, Tony and Langley have reached a consensus. If this article is directly used in the film, there is no problem. It is enough to satisfy Tony.
But on the other hand, Tony felt that there was something missing, but he couldn't say why. From the director's point of view, his emotion is enough, his performance is in place, and his rhythm is appropriate. His hesitation and hesitation are only self questioning and self creating difficulties in pursuit of perfection. If we can achieve 100 points, why should we be satisfied with 99 points?
Tony's idea was accepted by Langley.
However, lanli's perspective is quite different. For the actors, there is a little spark in the play just now. The chemical reaction is not accurate in language description, action display and facial expression. It's just a kind of feeling, an ethereal feeling. It's like in the process of artistic creation: it doesn't feel right. Everything was right, but it didn't feel right, so everything was wrong.
For the role of Henry Bart and the play of "detachment", Langley has conducted a comprehensive and thorough study. He understands the intentions of Tony and Carl, and also understands the responsibilities of the role. At the same time, he also presents the emotions and emotions of the role with the most accurate performance. So what is missing?
My mind is full of countless thoughts, how to show sadness, how to show pain, how to show change, every detail is so vivid. During my study in college, the acting skills I learned were full of every corner of my brain. I repeatedly took out the play just now and reviewed it again, and even refined the details of every expression. They were all in a mess and couldn't think at all.
Take a deep breath. Take a deep breath again. Lanli knows that he can't be impatient. At this moment, impatience can't help. Anyway, they have been stuck here for the fourth day. No matter how bad it is, it can't be any worse. Instead of this, it is better to slow down and sort out your thoughts. If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. The present retreat is for better progress.
He slowed down, walked down the street and took out his cigarette from his pocket. This time, in order to play Henry, the cigarette was always on his body, which saved him a lot of trouble. Involuntarily, he thought of Nathan and Roy's anxious appearance. On the contrary, lanli felt funny and relaxed a little.
From the perspective of Expressionists' acting skills, the play shows the emotion of being sad to the point of being unable to control itself. The emotion of suffering to the extreme, torture to the extreme, sadness to the extreme, and tears continuously falling, completely burst out on the bus.
After seeing Erica, Henry felt even more sad, as if he had seen himself falling in the abyss of hell, and could not see the end. But he knew that no one could help her, and even if he did, things would not be better, because he was still in hell, constantly falling, and could never see the end.
As a result, his mood calmed down, despair gradually came into being, and he returned to the state of numbness, no sadness and no joy, but the sadness and bitterness between his eyes could not be dissipated for a moment, which made the mood of his eyebrows more depressed.
A performance can be divided into three stages, three levels, emotional transition and layers of in-depth, put forward super high requirements for the accuracy and precision of acting skills. In yesterday's shooting, he didn't have enough control over this kind of propriety. Naturally, the finished product is not satisfactory. What about this one just now?
With a cigarette in his mouth, the soothing but irritating aroma lingers under his nose, and the concentration condenses little by little.
At the beginning of wailing, the emotion is completely released, and the helplessness of trying to control but still falling apart enlarges the sadness infinitely; Then the silent tears, pain began to nibble at the heart bit by bit, had been numb emotions, once again feel the pain of deep soul; Finally, the numbness and silence returned to the previous silence.
The whole performance has clear levels, clear rhythm and clear main line, which connects the whole emotion and makes it come true at one go. If we pay more attention to the details, he really has some room for improvement. For example, in the second stage of emotional change, we can slightly slow down the rhythm, show the whole change, and strengthen the connection between Henry and Erica. However, when he watched the playback just now, he didn't feel like this. It was not the adjustment of a certain part, but the lack of a certain part.
So what is missing?
What are the emotional details of Expressionists? The connection between the character and the story is simply, why does Henry cry? Why cry on the bus? Why collapse at this point in time?
Revisit the whole night's timeline: sleepless nights, late night strolls, hospital calls, persuading grandfathers, blaming nursing workers, and a complete breakdown on the bus home.
There is no doubt that grandfather is the focus of this timeline. While taking care of his grandfather to bed, the old man suffering from Alzheimer's disease muttered to himself, "many old people sleep a lot before they die. Isn't that stupid? " Looking at his grandfather's lost face, Henry felt deeply helpless.
Then Henry picked up his grandfather's diary. According to the doctor's request, in order to overcome the disease, my grandfather had to write regularly and record all the fragments in his mind. But the whole diary is blank. Henry suddenly realized that death was approaching.
But even so, my grandfather is still nostalgic for my mother's suicide. It seems that from that moment on, my grandfather's time completely stopped, and his life completely stopped at that night; And how could he not? As long as he closed his eyes, he could see his mother's naked body lying in the bathroom, foaming at the mouth and holding scattered white tablets in his hands. Such images were deeply imprinted in his mind, and could not be removed.
My mother chose to end up by herself, and my grandfather chose to live in the past. He was the only one left to face everything by himself and grow up hobbled. Now, even his grandfather is leaving him. He is afraid, trying to stay away from his grandfather and build his own life, refusing to indulge in the pain of the past; He didn't give up. His grandfather was the only connection between him and the world, and the only buffer between him and life. If even his grandfather left... That kind of sadness and pain made Henry lose his control and vent his anger to the nurse for the first time.
The surge of memories, as well as the fear of the future, defeated Henry's mask of hard maintenance, and his face was full of tears.
But if that's all, then the performance of lanli just now is in place. All the framework, content and details of the performance are all derived from the current situation of my grandfather and the memory of my mother. The deep grief makes tears stop, but there is still a piece missing in the puzzle. The most important part.
I took a deep breath. The unlighted cigarette just shriveled and shriveled. The cool air entered my lungs along with my breath, and I shivered. Goose bumps appeared on the surface of my skin. When I looked up, my eyes were full of decadence. It was about two o'clock in the middle of the night, and there were no people on the street, but lanli knew that the outlaws and homeless vagrants were still indifferent.
The dilapidated building on the street corner is an old second-hand shop. Almost every day, you can see people coming here with their own goods to mortgage and sell them in exchange for a little cash, so that life can continue to support.
Not long ago, lanli saw a bony prostitute with her bed sheets and quilt covers, begging the shopkeeper to complete the transaction. But now it's not the war time of material shortage. These things can't be changed at all. Finally, the owner raised his rifle and drove away the stubborn prostitute.
After the woman left the store, she fainted in the street. A passing policeman couldn't bear it and lost ten dollars to her. Just when Lan Li thought that she would buy some milk and bread to satisfy her hunger, the next second, she found the drug dealer with ten dollars. She knelt down and begged for some drugs. Even if it's just a few pills.
This is reality, this is life.
