Langley and westshaw are indeed friends, but only for this reason. Through the daily shooting of "lobster", they develop friendship. The whole crew gather in the hotel, eat and live together, and usually spend more time together; However, the true friendship in private is far from profound.
They never really talked about the level of performance or the love of movies, nor did they really share the joys and sorrows and trivial troubles, nor did they really talk about the situation of their personal life. Strictly speaking, they can only be considered familiar with each other, but there is still a distance between them.
Unexpectedly, today has become an unexpected opportunity.
His sensitivity and delicacy make him aware of lanli's anxiety. Instead of prying into lanli's secret, he takes the initiative to show his softness and fragility. He is sincere and calm, strong and brave. He builds a bridge between each other, unexpectedly arouses resonance and approaches each other a little.
Not only love, in fact, friendship and family also need fate.
……
Another working day's shooting ended smoothly, and the next morning, Roman Abramovich's response text message had arrived.
Sure enough, it was quick.
In the message, Roman said that the peacekeeping forces still did not get the exact information from Edith, but they successfully updated the information——
They did find the body of Edith's fellow journalists, but no other casualties were found around. In addition, two Red Cross medical officers lost contact with Edith, which means that their chances of surviving together began to rise.
Because medical officers and news officers are generally protected, even if there are occasional accidents, journalists may encounter unnecessary life threats, but medical officers are always able to get more special treatment. After all, life is the most important wealth in the situation of war.
Now, Edith is walking with two medical officers, which is undoubtedly good news, and the Red Cross is bound to follow up more actively.
In the chaos and turbulence, Roman also regretted that he could not bring good news, but at least he brought concrete news. Finally, he pushed aside the clouds over his head and began to approach Edith step by step. This is at least the beginning. Compared with the endless darkness before, it seems that he has finally made progress, even if only a little bit, It's enough to give the heart a new impetus.
Roman kept his promise and didn't wait to ask for anything. Instead, he focused all his attention on Edith. He was also the first person to update Langley. No matter what Roman is seeking, at this moment, Langley sincerely thanks him.
At the same time, Alexander and Andy are also working in a two pronged way, occasionally bringing some fragmentary news to piece together a few fragments of the story:
For example, Edith made a special trip to the dangerous crossfire area in front of her to photograph a "thousand people pit". She received news that there was a thousand people pit outside the target village. In the previous battle, the whole village was directly flattened, but the bodies of the innocent villagers could not be found. Now there are signs, This also made Edith resolutely decide to go, hoping to expose the truth of the battle.
For another example, Edith was attacked on her way to the village. She joined the medical team of the Red Cross. Unexpectedly, both sides went on the road together, but they were continuously attacked by unidentified artillery fire - not against them, but carpet bombing. This is not a normal phenomenon, whether it is the order of the enemy or the friendly forces. It seems that there are more secrets behind it, Who is trying to cover up the "thousand people pit"?
There is too little information. Now it's just a few words, but it can't piece together the whole story, let alone the truth. But the news was enough to make Langley jumpy. He could not know and judge what situation Edith was involved in and what situation she would face.
What's more worrying is that these clues can't be linked, and there's no way to find Edith's whereabouts.
Then, time began to suffer. The passing of each day seemed to mean the increase of danger, and the complicated situation made Edith in trouble. At least, in the minds of these outsiders, it was hard to imagine that Edith was out of trouble now but still didn't show up, They can only think in a more negative and worse direction and can't stop.
Even Roman's progress seems to be hindered, and there is no news update for several days in a row.
Langley knew he had to be patient, and his panic and anxiety couldn't help at all - but it was really, really difficult. Every hour seemed to be testing his nerves, because Langley couldn't imagine what situation Edith was facing in that hour, and the unknown was the most terrible.
Lanli must force himself to put all his attention into the "lobster" shooting, and use his work to force him not to think wildly, and not to preset the answer wildly before things are clear. All those thoughts that have no origin are just self frightening. He must stop.
This is not easy; But Langley is also very human.
From SNIM to Dublin, the shooting work of the film crew is gradually coming to an end, but the plot segments that need to be finished still can not be taken lightly, otherwise, it is not only the shooting progress that is affected, but whether all previous efforts can be further sublimated is the key point.
Langley has to focus.
He and Edith, they all have their own beliefs; And they're all fighting for their beliefs, aren't they? Now Edith is fighting in her battlefield, and he is also fighting in his own battlefield. They all need to be strong. They can only persist in the current difficulties by relying on themselves. They don't want to lose their battles.
Take a deep breath. Lanli forces himself to take a deep breath, because only by breathing can he live, win hope and wait until dawn.
……
exhale.
inhale.
exhale.
inhale.
Langley is adjusting his breathing rhythm, so that he can really enter a completely calm state and re fit into the facial paralysis atmosphere of the film. The cold and rigid state is undoubtedly the most suitable rhythm for the role. He must adjust himself to the correct frequency.
The whole crew kept quiet, no one interrupted the rhythm rashly, and even the breathing could not help slowing down.
After a month's cooperation, the crew members have enough understanding of the performance state and preparation rhythm of lanli. They have formed the habit. No one will break the peace at the moment, just wait for lanli's opening, and then the shooting can officially start.
Even Rachel Weitz, who is about to play against Langley, has slowed down her breathing.
Unconsciously, Rachel entered a kind of ethereal state, her mind reached a delicate balance, and seemed to find the breathing of the character.
Then, Lan Li gently said that he was ready. He opened his eyes.
The eyes, hidden behind them, were still clear and fixed on Rachel.
On the surface, the rhythm and rhythm of breathing are almost disappearing, and there are not too many ups and downs, which makes people have the illusion of turning into wooden people; But actually, those eyes and those breaths are telling another story:
It's hot and intense, attentive and devoted, and even has a kind of moth like madness and heroism. All of them are hidden under the calm and nearly tight skin, just like the gurgling magma flowing under the ice. You can see no sign, but you can feel the surging and rolling, the kind of investment that is repressed and then repressed, Let the body muscles to relax, but let the brain nerve to keep tight, the perfect blend of contradictory emotions, the air quietly began to fill with dopamine and adrenaline staggered breath.
There is no need for words or expressions. Just a long and steady breath collides with a tight and cracked shoulder line, which vividly shows the perfect combination of glaciers and volcanoes. However, it is impossible to judge whether glaciers block magma or volcanoes devour ice and snow.
And his eyes fell on her, sitting face to face, the paranoia and heroism hidden in the calm seemed to be telling another story, even the small details of leaning forward but forcing to straighten the waist were so perfect and moving. The restlessness of cold outside and hot inside is wantonly roaring in the blood, and then the whole air around his aura calms down, and the air falls into a condensing state.
The film style of oggs has been perfectly interpreted by Langley at this moment: under the cold and rigid picture, there is a volcano that can erupt and destroy everything at any time. The endless sea of glaciers completely covers the volcanoes, but it can't eliminate their existence, Now we are waiting for the moment of volcanic eruption - the sea level may still not be able to catch any signs, but people with heart can judge the truth from the vibration of their feet. Only when they really watch with heart and feel with heart can they catch the invisible and fleeting truth.
Maybe Rachel is the only exception.
Rachel, who is sitting opposite lanli, is facing her eyes. She doesn't see any movement of lanli, even no trace of performance. However, her heart trembles slightly and feels the strong pressure of the atmosphere. It seems that the whole person is wrapped up in it, and she can't and doesn't want to resist.
Because, in those eyes, she can see the frantic and hot, she can also see the bright and vitality of the pure heart, she can also see that David's soul is becoming complete——
Most importantly, it wasn't Langley, it was David.
So, who is in front of us now?
