Standing in the same place, Eddie just felt a burst of empty chest, unable to describe, unable to express; When I open my mouth, I always think that I want to say something, but I find that after all, I don't say anything. In the end, I can only stand in the same place, full of bitterness and confusion.
Performance aura, which is a mysterious thing that can't be seen but can be felt, can always feel the suppression from aura in those old actors; But just now, Eddie felt it in Langley. It's just... Ridiculous!
Eyes, expressions and movements; Lines, emotions, bodies. This is a typical and pure way of academic performance, not the way of yiyuye in imagination. In lanli's performance, there is a strong force hidden, like an invisible rope, which involves the flow and direction of the plot. Eddie can clearly feel that lanli's momentum is climbing up little by little, freely retracting and relaxing, and firmly controlling the whole performance.
In the second half of the "red and black" aria, Enjolras occupies the commanding height of morality, and then suppresses Marius' momentum, which is the normal trend of the plot. But in the process of performance, it's not just the second half. In the first half, lanli's emotion is so strong, so delicate, so real, and gradually permeates out. Inadvertently, Eddie's performance is involved.
In order to form a confrontation, in order to show his position, Eddie had to use a little more force than usual to avoid the whole performance being completely brought into the rhythm of Langley. This is the reason why the force is too strong. However, despite this, Eddie is still completely in the downwind, he can even feel his hands and feet are bound up, unable to struggle to get rid of; After entering the second half, Eddie becomes a spectator completely. He only feels that he is so small, so nihilistic, so humble, even worse than dust. The whole stage is involved in the performance atmosphere of Langley.
Most importantly, lenley made minor changes in the performance.
According to the original version, Enjolras was able to stimulate everyone's emotions because the revolution occupied the commanding height, which is a great mission that no one can refute; But in Langley's performance, Enjolras was great not because of revolution, but because of his fiery heart. He dedicated himself to the fated cause, which may be revolution or love. The enthusiasm and excitement of flying moths to the fire, regardless of everything and burning life not only moved people's souls, It brought tears to my eyes.
That's why Eddie feels small. Even Marius' passion for love was so insignificant in the face of Enjolras' madness and persistence.
He clenched his fist and tried to refresh himself, but... Eddie felt a moment of weakness.
He hated both Langley and himself. Because deep in his heart, he knew that the stage would not lie, and the gap in strength was clear at a glance. Lanli's performance just now is impeccable. Lanli has proved his strength and excellence. Almost irresistible, he began to envy Langley.
Jealousy, which is the devil's emotion, gnaws the heart and bones, gradually disintegrates the willpower, and finally falls into the dark.
Eddie let out a long breath, the bitterness of his tongue spread, his shoulders drooped, his hands raised helplessly, and he began to clap. That's at least what he can and should do.
Clapping thunderous, surging against the eardrum, standing on the stage, the kind of satisfaction and pride filled in the chest. Lan Li gently breathed out a breath and politely called the curtain to express his thanks. The tight string in his heart relaxed a little.
During the performance of the whole aria just now, Lan Li was concentrated and concentrated. Every change and every turning point was firmly under control. In the last small section, rush to the table and chair, which is also arranged in advance. Make full use of the stage space. If it is in the movie, this way of performance is too much, which is a bit of sensationalism; But on the stage, this way can push emotions to climax - after all, the audience can't see the subtle changes in the actor's eyes, but can see the action of jumping on the table.
Now it seems that his adventure was a success!
After pulling out of the role, Langley reviewed the whole performance. This is indeed the most enjoyable and handy performance in the past six months, not only because of the return to the theater stage, but also because of the polishing of every Hollywood work.
From "buried alive" to "love crazy", from "anti-cancer me" to "detached", every work is a challenge and a breakthrough for Lan Li. He constantly polished his performance style and details, and constantly deepened his understanding of performance. Finally, he achieved what he is now.
If he doesn't experience the baptism of these works and just sticks to the west end or Broadway, then Lanley can't complete the transformation of acting skills; Similarly, if we don't complete the cross comparison of the two works "anti-cancer me" and "detached", and return to the theater stage ahead of time, the control of the performance and the feeling of the role may not be the state today.
Maybe now is the perfect time.
He was so excited that he enjoyed the stage and the moment. The blood flowing in the bones seems to be branded with performance, which is intoxicating.
Turning his head, lanli looks at Eddie standing not far away and nods politely. In the scene just now, both actors and actresses are of vital importance. Emotional traction and pulling, only one slap, it can't make a sound. The actor, who won the best actor Oscar with the theory of everything, has solid basic skills in drama.
Eddie seems to be a little distracted and slow for half a beat, but he still feels the eyes of blue Li, raises his head, shows a smile, nods his head in confusion, and then draws back his eyes and falls into his own thoughts.
The applause lasted only a short time. After all, it was only an audition, not a formal actor. Cameron turned his head and looked at Tom beside him. He looked at him and asked as if he were asking, "Jean Valjean?"
Tom's face hesitated. Langley is really excellent. The three roles of eponine, Javert and Enjolras are not only full of personal characteristics, but also perform each role well. This is too rare, which indirectly proves that Langley is competent for more difficult roles. Jean Valjean, this is a choice.
However, lanli is only 22 years old, so the challenge is still too difficult, especially for the film shooting method of enlarging pores, even if the makeup is exquisite, it is inevitable that there will be flaws; Let alone this point, Jean Valjean's number one candidate is Hugh Jackman, who is indisputable. His strength, image and reputation are impeccable from all angles. It seems a terrible decision to give up Hugh and choose Langley.
Tom is a traditional Englishman, which also means that he is conservative, serious, harsh and reserved, abides by his own comfort and refuses to break too many rules. He is good at historical plays, such as "Elizabeth I", "John Adams", "the king's speech" and so on.
Tom would like to play Marius if he could, but unfortunately, he is not interested.
"Look again." Tom said, "we need to think about the whole situation. Today's audition is just part of it After a moment's hesitation, Tom made his own choice.
Cameron did not retort, and he agreed with Tom's words - which need to be carefully considered. Today's audition is definitely a bonus, but is it enough to make Langley competent for Jean Valjean? What's more, is it enough to make Langley beat Hugh? Cameron thinks they need to calm down and think about it.
Just as he was about to speak, Cameron thought of another thing and asked in a low voice, "where's the other one?"
Tom's answer is not too much surprise, "another audition.". His basic skills are solid and his performance is not bad. You can put it with a few other candidates. " After careful consideration, then make a decision, the style is consistent.
Cameron didn't say much. He looked back at the stage and said, "yes, your audition is over." Eyes fell on Lan Li and said with a smile, "or do you have other content to show?" To challenge Jean Valjean at the age of 22 is absolutely against the heaven. Maybe Langley needs more space and time.
Lan Li chuckled, "no, No. I'd better not take up the audition time of other actors. "
Drama stage is just like this. On a platform, what actors show in a minute and an hour is almost the same. It must present a relatively stable level, without ups and downs and huge gap, so as to ensure that the quality of the whole play is above the standard. It can be understood that they have no upper limit, but they have a lower limit, and the lower limit is very high.
Therefore, what should have been shown in the two minute aria just now has been shown, and what has not been shown is still futile no matter how much time there is.
Langley politely finished the curtain call, then walked down the other side of the stage, leaving space for the next group of Marius and Enjolras.
Eddie's step was half a beat slower again. He looked at Cameron and Tom seriously, but they didn't say anything, just silence. Eddie's heart sank slowly, so did he miss the chance? Did he screw up his chance?
Just thinking of this, Eddie's steps faltered and almost ran away from the stage. After entering the backstage, I saw the back of Lan Li.
According to aristocratic etiquette, he should be elegant and polite, nod a greeting, and then turn to say goodbye. But it's not today. Today he can't hold on any longer. He must leave, leave here quickly, or he will suffocate. So, Eddie bowed his head and walked away quickly, faster and faster. In a twinkling, he passed lanli and disappeared at the end of the long corridor.
