"You mean you won't be back on stage for a while? Oh, it's a pity. " "I've been thinking about when I can really enjoy your performance on the stage of the theater, but now it seems that it's going to be pushed back," she said
"God." Richard exclaimed, "Oh, my God. Langley, please. Please come back to the west side. Hollywood is just a kid's game. The stage is where you really shine. "
Beatrice brought up the subject, but now she couldn't get in the way. She stood by, her eyes widened, like a little rabbit, staring at blue Li and nodding in agreement with Kate and Richard.
As you know, drama is the art of actors, TV plays are the art of screenwriters, and movies are the art of directors. Strictly speaking, the stage of drama really belongs to actors. There are few actors like Lawrence Oliver, even in the long river of history. "
These words successfully made everyone nod their heads in agreement. However, William is an exception. He seems to be absent-minded and not interested in such a topic. However, in order to show politeness, he smiles.
"In the process of film creation, the actor is a chess piece in the hands of the director. If the actor is integrated into the work of art, the bad actor may destroy the work; Qualified actors may make this work; And the successful actor... "Langley's eyes fell on Beatrice.
"It might light up the work." Beatrice blurted out without thinking.
Lan Li nodded with a smile and agreed, "that's it. Therefore, I always think that acting in a drama and acting in a movie are two different experiences, but they can find something in common. If you like drama, you can also find resonance in movies; On the other hand, if you like movies, you can also understand the charm of drama. "
Richard chewed carefully, then showed a meaningful sight and looked at lanli with a smile. "You know, there are countless people who have recommended movies before and after, but I have never walked into the cinema. Now, I have to admit, you convinced me. Maybe, if I have a chance in the future, I should enjoy a movie and then make a judgment. "
"Anytime." Blue show showed a bright smile.
"Rubbish." Not far away came a thick and turbid voice, as if speaking with a mouthful of phlegm. The dull sound made people uncomfortable instantly.
Without waiting for the crowd to turn around, the sound like a wire brush thrown into the juicer rang again, one after another cursing, "shit! rats! Brain damage
What's more, it's not simply rude language, but authentic English language, such as "nitwits", such as "cobblers", and so on. From Welsh slang to Scottish slang, it's endless. Even the pure English people can't understand all of it, but the visitors are neat and fluent.
Don't aristocrats use rude language?
This is a misunderstanding. As a matter of fact, the aristocracy is the one who knows the most about swearing.
In the process of childhood education, when their etiquette has become a habit, the tutor or housekeeper will hold a special class to teach all kinds of rude words, the initial purpose is to prevent any occasion of gaffe and loss of grace.
Of course, swearing is only part of it. The whole course covers all kinds of language, including what words are more appropriate for people in specific areas, and some words are suggestive of discrimination or contempt.
Therefore, for aristocrats, a person's daily speech, vocabulary habits, voice and intonation, etc., can reveal too much information. It has been said that poverty cannot be hidden, especially for nobles.
Because of this, even the poor nobles like the hall family still put on a high position. With their rich heritage and long history, they can easily make a lot of judgments in their daily life, and even further master the whole situation.
Therefore, although they have not enough to eat, but they still can not help but send out the attitude of contempt and discrimination.
The reason why the nobles didn't use rude words was to protect their etiquette and image; But for those aristocratic masters of the older generation, their rude words are also a treasure house.
Such a sensational and grand opening speech, there is no need to look back, you can already know the identity of the bearer: Viscount John de Beaufort.
George's shoulder quietly relaxed a little, a big stone in his heart finally fell down, but on the surface, it was still silent.
"Sir." Richard stepped forward to try to get out.
But John didn't give Richard face at all. With his age and identity, his status and contacts, he didn't need to take care of Richard's idea. It was enough for him to put on a posture that the elder taught the younger, "shut up! Do your father know what you look like? God, you are a disgrace to the wiles! Isn't it a midsummer party? Why is everyone talking about an actor? "
John began to scold him unreasonably, and Richard's face stiffened slightly with the curse.
"You should be glad your father didn't know, or he would jump out of the coffin now!" John is still indomitable, cursing seems to have just begun, "you must always remember your identity, how can you be with the actors? That is a group of dirty and ugly servants! They're just coveting your property and identity. They're just like rats in a stinky ditch, stinking! "
Don't mention Richard. Kate and Beatrice, who were standing nearby, were a little embarrassed, because John's words were so ugly that they could not help but cast their eyes on him.
Richard also realized this, straightened his back, "sir! Pay attention to your words and attitude! It's 2013, not 1913! "
"Yes, it's 2013! I know! " John did not give any space at all. "Now is the Internet age. Even her Majesty must be cautious in her words and deeds. Everyone is watching our every move! You have to be more disciplined! You say, what's going on? You invited an actor! And you're still talking about it here? "
"Viscount Beaufort!" George stepped forward and interrupted John with a strong voice. "Please pay attention to your manners. Unfortunately, my youngest son is an actor. " At the same time, George's eyes also fell on lanli, showing an angry expression, "these dirty words can stay outside the party, you can keep your own opinions, but please don't lose your manners in person."
Standing aside, Lan Li said: flattered.
This should be the first time since he grew up that George publicly defended himself and performed his duties as a father on any occasion.
But Lan Li was not blessed with this honor.
John was aiming at Richard just now, but he didn't pay any attention to Langley. Obviously, John just heard a few words of the party. Out of disgust for the actors, he came to condemn Richard, but he had no idea who the so-called actors were.
Now, as soon as George reminded him, John suddenly realized.
"So, this is the man of vanity fair? Are you his father? " John's attention shifted in an instant, but his firepower did not weaken. "You should be ashamed!" It was aimed at George. "It's a family misfortune! You should have kicked him out of the house and brought him to the party? Is your brain completely reduced to paste? "
George's face was stiff.
John then aimed the gun at lanli. He raised his chin contemptuously and looked up and down at lanli with a look of disdain. "How many times have you sold your body to get to the present position? Come here tonight, are you looking for a deal again? Just women? Or do men count? "
"Viscount Beaufort seems to know the market better than I do. It seems that I have tried a lot before." Lanli's expression did not change, but he still replied with a smile, "Sir, I don't know if you should cover your ears when your majesty is here tonight. If I remember correctly, compared with the dirty body, etiquette is the most important part we need to learn."
Then, after a pause, the eyebrows rose, and Langley added, "Oh, by the way, I'm not interested in jazz's business proposal. You know, we have standards, too. "
The modest and unhurried attitude showed the atmosphere and calmness, and the elegant temperament burst out from the inside out. However, it was like an iron wall. It fought back hard, and stood up from the bottom.
John, who seems to be standing at the commanding height of morality, becomes embarrassed; However, Lan Li, who seems to be in danger and has lost all face, shows the elegance in line with the nobility.
But Matthew, who was standing beside him, knew that lanli's anger had broken through the bottom line.
Before attending the dinner, they expected conflicts and contradictions, but for Langley, he didn't care, he didn't care, he didn't want to embarrass George and Elizabeth; Of course, he didn't plan to cooperate with the performance. However, their method was unexpected, which once again broke the bottom line of lanli's cognition.
Matthew's eyes fell deeply on George and Elizabeth, sharp and sharp, with a slight meal, and then he looked at Lan Li, with a trace of sadness in the bottom of his eyes.
Everyone is envious of the nobility and the upper class, but in order to maintain this layer of shell, the dirty means behind can not be seen. What's more sad is that even family ties are reduced to chips for interest exchange. Lanli always likes to come back to London, but he can't find the warmth of his home here.
In the face of lanli's counterattack, John laughed angrily, "ha, look at this guy, his words are not inferior at all. If you really have pride in your heart, you shouldn't go out and make a fool of yourself; If it's really dignified, don't play with prestige on your lips. "
The storm is obviously not over.
