"Card!"
Damien's voice reverberated in the practice room. Lanli didn't stop playing at once. The sound of chucking continued to surge for a while, which was officially interrupted. Lanli gently breathed out a breath and raised his head. His eyes were clear and his expression was calm. Except for a little gasping, the whole person was not too different.
Looking around, lanli showed a shallow smile and nodded to Paul, Ryan and others. He couldn't see anything unusual. It seemed that everything was firmly in his palm. His infatuation was just a part of the role performance, which had no effect on reality.
But... Why do you always feel that something is wrong?
Just like before the Titanic hit the iceberg, everything was too calm and normal, and was brewing an unbearable disaster. It seems that such a description is not appropriate, but the calm in front of us is too abnormal, which makes us feel frightened.
But Lan Li didn't know. He was still calm. He regained his sight and waited for Damien to recover. Then he asked, "how was the play just now?"
Damien's mouth was full of acid. After a big mouthful of mineral water and gargling, he got back to work. "The shooting just now was very good and perfect. Now we just need to take some close-up shots. First of all... "After calming down, Damien gathered his attention again.
But Langley noticed one small detail: Damien didn't dare look himself in the eye.
This did not appear in the previous shooting process. Does this mean that his performance is successful?
In the performance of Langley, Damien's inspiration burst out completely. He pieced together the whole picture in his mind with different perspectives and different editing methods, and the subsequent shooting became targeted.
For Lan Li, no matter what shooting, close-up, close-up, track and so on, there is no problem. The whole shooting is extremely smooth. His performance seems to have entered a new realm. The casual interpretation and interpretation are integrated with the role, truly showing the progressive depravity.
It took nearly an hour for the whole scene to finish shooting, but lanli's state was particularly relaxed. After shooting, he walked towards his friends with a smile on his face and expressed his welcome. "It's rare that so many people came to watch the shooting today. Unconsciously, he seemed to be back on the west side stage."
Everyone's eyes were carefully looking at Lan Li. Everyone present was an actor, and everyone had his own experience in studying and exploring the performance. Maybe Paul was an exception, he was more suitable to play a handsome vase; So, everyone is thinking in a different position, guessing the state of lanli with their own experience, but... They all failed.
Because the state of Lan Li is too strange: he seems to be possessed, but he is conscious; It seems that the emotion is out of control, but the conversation is natural; It seems to fall into the dark, but it moves freely. In a trance, Andrew and lenley seem to be integrated, but in a blink of an eye, lenley is still that lenley, it seems that nothing has changed.
This kind of fuzzy boundary between control and anti control, reality and surreality, even the actors are confused.
Jack Gyllenhaal can touch something vaguely.
On the one hand, when we first cooperated with Heath Ledger, what we saw in heath is now captured in Langley, but it is not completely the same; On the other hand, what he feels when he works with Denis Villeneuve on "old enemy" and "prisoner" continuously seems to have touched a barrier. As long as he penetrates the past, he can feel the new world——
Lanli seems to have entered that world.
"... are you ok?" Jack asks tentatively, "I mean, is your palm OK now? The wound looks scary. Are you sure you don't need to bandage it? "
"Yes, of course." Lan Li chuckled, "I'm not Wolverine. I don't have self-healing ability. I need to disinfect immediately to avoid inflammation."
This is Langley, not Andrew.
So... What's going on?
Paul, Ryan and Rooney all look at each other. The changes are subtle. To be honest, they have no way to accurately describe the differences in those details, but it can be obvious that yesterday and today, lanli's state has been different. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
Why is it that the first thing that comes to mind is that "after the mental patients are completely insane, they are just like ordinary people"?
Just like Jack, Jessica chastan did not experience yesterday's fright. They just captured the details of the truth from the news. However, the performance just presented by Langley opened Jessica's eyes, and her deep interest rolled up.
"Are you sure? Your performance just now is too shocking. Any actor needs to expend a lot of energy. Now you look as if there is nothing, but it doesn't seem to be nothing. "
Jessica's outspoken, said everyone's innermost feelings dare not say words, everyone immediately nodded in agreement, the appearance of the brush let blue Li dumbfounded.
"I'm fine. Believe me, I'm fine. I'm just performing my duties as an actor. It's my job and yours at the same time. There's no need to make a fuss. " Lan Li calmly welcomed the eyes of his friends, "but I do have something to do now. I'm still trying to figure out the role. I haven't performed for a long time. Now I need more time and energy to take on such a difficult role. So, even though I'm standing here talking to you, I'm about to fall asleep, just like a horse. "
At this time, Rooney can catch the abnormality of Langley.
Although on the surface, lanli seems calm; However, a close observation shows that the fatigue between the eyebrows is like the fog, but it can not go away. It is like a sinking anchor, dragging the giant oil tanker to stop and stabilize on the vast ocean. Before the anchor is put away, the ship will be unable to move forward.
In particular, the gloomy and dark temperament is surging in the dark.
"You need a good rest." LUNI followed lanli's words and said seriously.
Lanli's eyes fell on her, her heavy eyelids drooped slightly, her mouth curved slightly, and then she said, "yes, I need to rest." The tired feeling in the words is becoming more and more obvious, even the eyes become dim, "so, sorry, there is no way to entertain you here today, you are free, we'll talk about it another day."
Without too much stay, Lan Li turned and left after he left.
The crew members are busy coming and going, in order to prepare for the next play, while lanli goes to the corner alone, sits down, his head rests on the wall, and his tight shoulders slowly relax. Then, his eyelids slowly close, and a touch of vulnerability between his eyebrows is fleeting.
All the people who stayed in the same place looked at each other. Finally, Paul was the first one to come back and say, "should we call Bento for them? It's time for lunch. "
You can't come here empty handed.
"Of course!" Jessica is an open-minded person. She actively said, "when I was filming in New York last time, I had a lunch. Fried pork chops were very good and the delivery speed was very fast. Now I'll call my agent and ask if I can get the take out number."
"Well, I'll take care of the afternoon tea." Rooney's thought was very clear, and immediately began to work. "Do you still stay here in the afternoon? I just asked Damien. Today's shooting routine is arranged until 8 p.m. because of the schedule of Juilliard Conservatory of music, the crew has to go on the stage the day after tomorrow to shoot the part of the performance. Damien hopes to accommodate the rhythm of lenley's performance, so he will postpone the next class and shoot as much as possible. "
"Well, I'll have the dessert for lunch and dinner. I'll go out in the afternoon and come back in the evening. " Ryan also said dryly, there's no fuss.
Paul nodded. "Well, I'll take care of dinner. I'll go over and talk to the drama first, and don't order today's meals. " Paul shook his head. "Ryan, we need to talk to Andy about that girl just now. I can't believe it..."
Even if he was kind like Paul, his anger could not be completely calmed. Look at the current state of blue Li, and then think back to the girl's posture, he still can't believe, how can there be such a person? How can such a performance be achieved? Professional aside, don't you even understand the most basic respect?
Ryan didn't refuse. He made an "OK" gesture. "Believe me, there will only be more and more pheasants like this in the future. At the time of the Toronto Film Festival, Langley was just a newcomer and had already met him. " Looking back at lanli, Ryan showed a helpless smile at the corner of his mouth. "I thought I was a drama maniac, but compared with him, I was like an amateur actor."
All his friends are worried about the situation of lanli. Lanli knows very well, but he really doesn't have the heart and energy to take care of others now. The tug of war in his mind is accumulating and becoming more and more chaotic. He can't even tell whether he should integrate the two worlds or distinguish them.
Now, he can barely support, but with the advance of the shooting, the sense of bondage is becoming more and more obvious, which forces Lan Li to struggle and resist step by step. But the more he confronts, the stronger his sense of powerlessness is, which is like a nightmare in his heart.
