Chapter 1226

Damien is telling the truth, he really did not conceive the actor candidates, even the perfect lineup in his mind, because this project can not find a producer, he does not even have a starting point, he does not have the ability and qualification to conceive the best lineup.

Damien was still in an uncertain state before he met Langley.

He doesn't know whether he can find a producer and investor for his works, or whether he will wait for it; He doesn't know what kind of producers and investors he can meet. He may not easily meet someone who appreciates him, but his works are changed beyond recognition; He still doesn't know whether his works will succeed or not. Even if they are shot according to his own idea, whether they will be able to appear on the big screen is still unknown.

I don't know, I'm not sure, I'm not sure.

This is Damien's state of life, but also the "burst drummer" preparation.

When Lan Li's face appeared in the sight, Damien had a flash in his mind. Isn't Lan Li the perfect choice?

This is true in all aspects, because this is a story about college students, which needs young actors to perform; Among the whole Hollywood, there are only a few young people with acting skills, not to mention those who can interpret Andrew's feeling of madness.

Damien even thought that it would be enough to find a young actor with shelf drum experience and perform without being too flashy and stiff.

But now I see lanli... The inspiration in my mind is just like a spring, which can even directly construct the vivid picture; However, before he could describe it further, Damien suddenly stopped. How could he forget the most important thing? The more excellent an actor is, the rarer it is. How could Langley be willing to play a nobody's work?

The excitement settled down little by little, as if we could see that the light was dim. Damien dropped his shoulders and wriggled his mouth, but he didn't know what to say. He raised his eyes and glanced at blue Li again.

Then Damien saw a playful smile from the fundus of lanli's eyes. If the radian of the corner of his mouth seemed to rise, Damien's heart would not be lifted, and his voice would almost be blocked.

"I think it's a very interesting proposal." Blue Li gently jaw head, expressed his own views.

It's not a joke.

Playing Andrew, a character wandering between reality and illusion, paranoia strikes his own artistic boundaries, and finally the real mad devil survives, as if he sold his soul to the devil, and really finds his own perfection in the art field. This is definitely a very interesting performance experience.

Different from any previous works, this time lanli needs to present his feelings and experience of exploring the artistic boundary, which is equivalent to analyzing himself, showing himself, truly breaking the boundary between performance and reality, not wandering among them, but completely breaking into the chaotic zone between them, experiencing the feeling of survival of the mad devil.

What's more, Andrew is a jerk. The chaos of means, although as the protagonist, can't make the audience like it. This is different from "tomorrow's edge", William cage still needs the charm of the screen after all, which attracts the audience; And the "pop drummer" doesn't need, in a way, Andrew even needs to make the audience nauseous and disgusted, so the performance is successful.

In other words, it can be regarded as an experience challenging the role of "villain".

At the beginning, when lanli received the script of "Thor", his first reaction in his mind was to play rocky instead of sol. However, under the circumstances, his wish still failed to come true, and it was the same with every subsequent work.

Although each character, style and type of each work are different, Langley has always been striving to challenge new characters and broaden the boundaries of performance.

So the cracker drummer is really an excellent proposal.

However, this time, lanli didn't have the feeling of blood boiling, not because the characters and scripts were not attractive enough, nor because the director and project were not excellent enough, but because he was really tired, physically and mentally.

After shooting "gravity" and "drunken folk songs" in succession, lanli consumed almost all his energy, and the fatigue from his soul never disappeared. Even in the face of scripts and characters like "pop drummer", he would have cheered for a long time and could not wait to get involved in the shooting, but now he is calm, It's never been able to inspire enthusiasm.

"If the time is right, I would be very happy to play in this work." But recently I haven't planned to work. I need to have a good rest. I'm not sure how long I'm going to rest, maybe one month, maybe two months, maybe more. I haven't thought about it yet

"When I'm ready, if the role is still vacant, it's my honor to join the cast; But in order not to delay your production, I think we'd better speed up. " Lan Li showed a shallow smile, "don't worry, although I'm on vacation during this period of time, I will immediately look for the right person to entrust your works."

After the excitement and excitement gradually subsided, Damien regained his calm.

He can realize that Lan Li is sincere. At least, he is willing to believe that Lan Li is sincere. His dark brown eyes seem to be able to really understand his mind, the hardships and bitterness of artistic creation, the unreasonable persistence and stubbornness. From the deep soul, they can find the similar parts.

This time, Damien was not impulsive. Instead, he carefully considered his words, "lenley, I'm serious. I think you're the perfect choice to play Andrew. I know that's what everyone should say to you. At least, I've heard it countless times. "

Blue Li eyebrow tail lightly a pick, jokingly say, "I how don't know?"

Damien was stunned and dumbfounded. "We new directors and independent creators, who are waiting for the opportunity, always fantasize about what the most perfect performance line-up should be, so as to achieve the effect in our mind. In the past year or so, you have always been the most suitable choice, perfect performance, perfect image, perfect dedication, and most importantly, you have never rejected independent films. "

Aware of the smile on Langley's face, Damien lowered his eyes with a smile. "I'm not flattering you. It's true. As I said, I can't think of a more perfect choice except you... "

"Even if I don't know how to drum?" Lan Li cut in again.

After being interrupted, Damien looks at lanli helplessly, and then catches the smile from the corner of lanli's mouth. He has no choice but to nod, "yes, even if you don't know how to put on airs. I'm not sure how long you need to rest, but as long as you can catch up with next year's Sundance, I'm willing to wait for you for the shooting and production of the work, as well as the later stage. "

Lan Li did not answer, but slightly pursed the corners of his mouth and said solemnly, "I think directors are liars. That's what you say to every actor, just to cheat them into nodding and promising to play in your work. I think, "you're the perfect choice." this should be a cliche that the director industry must learn. "

From Drake doremus, Alfonso Caron, the Cohen brothers, and even Steven Spielberg, everyone was so excited at first. Gradually, Langley began to be on guard. If he heard the same words too much, it was not worth the money.

Damien chuckled merrily and spread out his hands. "Maybe. If that's true, it means that my basic study is not bad. It's a good start. "

Blue Li slightly jaw head, a face "see, I see through your stratagem" expression, and then began to chat up, "how can you think of creating such a script? This is not a particularly brilliant creative idea... "

Langley and Damien are sitting at the bar of the train carriage, talking with each other at a glance. For the time being, they have put aside the issue of seeking investment and the bustle of Oscar night. Only two movie lovers begin to exchange their opinions and views on movies, and sometimes they fight with each other, but the passage of time begins to lose its meaning.

……

When I woke up in my apartment the next day, it was already afternoon.

Last night, they chatted until more than four o'clock in the morning. They saw a glimmer of dawn on the edge of the sky. Then they left the train carriage and waved goodbye. Staying up all night is not a problem. The problem is that I really drank too much coffee last night. After I fell asleep, my head ached a little.

Langley thinks he needs a glass of hot milk now.

Unfortunately, this is Los Angeles. Because Langley doesn't park here all the year round, the refrigerator is empty and there is no Matthew to help fill the daily food. There is almost no sign of people living in the whole apartment. As a result, Lan Li could only wash and bathe for a while, changed a suit of clothes, left home, and went out looking for food for his hungry stomach.

California's sunshine is always with a lazy atmosphere. Around three o'clock in the afternoon, sitting outdoors in an open-air coffee shop, bathing in the sunshine and enjoying a cup of coffee or black tea, people slow down and are reluctant to stand up. They just want to slowly melt in the warmth.

At this moment, New York is still cold and rainy. No wonder people always say that the east coast and the west coast are two different ways of life.

Just then, there was a sound from the opposite side of Langley. It was the sound of pulling the seat, and then Andy Rogers's familiar voice began to ring, "waiter, give me a glass of espresso, thank you."
