"In addition to orchids, there is money, and maybe there is nothing else worth caring about in La Roche's life." Evan Bell muttered, not loudly, but Meryl Streep And Spike Jones outside the window could hear it clearly. "He lost his family, the flowerbed, and everything he cared about, so he wrapped himself tightly, with a tone of indifference, orchids and money..."
Evan Bell only felt that he was in a fuzzy state, and his thoughts had been playing the slideshow rapidly. The protagonist on the slideshow was himself, to be precise, a sloppy ruffian who had his own appearance but was almost middle-aged. , He was wearing a shirt like dried sauerkraut, his hair seemed to have been drying in the dust for a week, and the lack of three front teeth made him look very funny, and he spoke with a sense of silent joy.
This is an unruly ruffian, exactly like Evan Bell when he was young. The enthusiasm and persistence in his eyes are deep and sincere, but the indifferent smile on the corner of his mouth always has a kind of deepness, as if there are countless innumerable smiles. The story is waiting to be discovered. His movements, his eyes, his habits, are so clear, so detailed that even the smoking posture and the position of his eyes are clearly visible.
And these details, but Evan Bell has not noticed before. At this moment, he said it easily, as if he were John La Roche.
Suddenly, Evan Bell woke up from this state, and clenched his hands involuntarily. Looking closely, he was holding the steering wheel. These hands were rough and dry, and the calluses on them had turned white, from the dark yellow around them. sè can be seen as the hands of a pair of old smokers.
"Hey, Evan, are you okay?" Meryl Streep's voice seemed to come from the sky, and a thunderstorm exploded in Evan Bell's ear, causing Evan Bell to wake up immediately .
"I'm on set right now, working on 'The Adaptation'; I'm now playing John La Roche, a fifty-year-old ruffian."
"Phew, I'm fine, I'm fine..." Evan Bell let out a long breath, "Wait...wait, give me a moment." Evan Bell didn't turn his head, but leaned on the steering wheel , the thoughts in his head suddenly became clear, "Streep, about La Roche, yes, about La Roche, what do you think he should be like?"
Meryl Streep didn't ask what Evan Bell was thinking about just now, but she vaguely guessed that maybe Evan Bell had his own understanding of this character just now. Meryl Streep shrugged, "Well, maybe, he has been smoking for many years, and at the same time he has a very strong physique. After all, he searches for orchids in the rainforest all year round. Maybe, he has a sad past, but he was Buried deep in my heart, never mentioned..."
Evan Bell interrupted Meryl Streep, "No no no," then turned around and looked at the big senior, "I mean, details. La Roche spoke. At times, he may unconsciously purse his lips, "This is because he has been missing three front teeth for many years and has not made up the habit he has left behind. "When he looks at people, his eyes are always slightly upward, a little above the other's eyes, In this way, it is convenient for him to observe other people's eyes, but he will not let out his own thoughts." This is because he is used to a person, so he is not used to trust others. "Also, he is always used to speaking with A foul language, even if he knows his habits..." This is a habit brought by years of life at the bottom of society.
Meryl Streep seemed to continue to think when Evan Bell stopped talking, filling up John La Roche's horns and adding, "Maybe, he will wear a pair of sunglasses, It has the effect of rainforest sun protection and the effect of blocking one's eyes. Of course, the details are important, but it is also important to integrate the details into the general direction."
"Yes... yes, yes!" Evan Bell's series of long chanting finally broke out, "Xìng style decides to get used to, but at the same time habit is also a side of xìng style. The rhythm of speech, the details of actions, the changes in expressions , are the framework formed after a person has lived for many years, this is a person."
In his previous acting experience, Evan Bell learned to use a biographical way to shape characters, and this time Evan Bell did the same. However, in the combination of details and the whole, Evan Bell is still not sophisticated enough. Compared with Meryl Streep's graceful and natural interpretation, his youthfulness is more obvious. To put it simply, Evan Bell knows how to use eyes, expressions, body movements, and language rhythm to show a character, which also makes him progress in the previous three works, and amazes everyone one after another.
However, in front of Meryl Streep, Evan Bell's overall combination is still very green. Meryl Streep was able to erect the corners without making a sound, and Evan Bell's lack of details made the overall performance still have some traces, plus because of John Lalo The huge difference in age, experience, and personality made the traces more and more uncomfortable.
This is why, Spike Jones and others think that Evan Bell's performance is very exciting, but it always lacks a little charm.
As long as the person is integrated into the body, the details of the horns' movements, language and expressions will be naturally expressed, and the overall level will be improved to a higher level. This reminded Evan Bell of his performance in the "Sniper Phone Booth" interview, as well as the scenes after his breakthrough in "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night". After all the details and details were integrated, the characters became vivid without a trace. stand up. What Evan Bell lacks now is the concatenation of details.
Perhaps, when reviewing the biography of a corner, one should also add hobbies, habits, and interests, including movements, diet, lifestyle, etc., so that a corner can be completed.
Meryl Streep listened to Evan Bell's murmur, and a satisfied look appeared on her face. Evan Bell finally noticed that for any angle, his personality determines his eyes, expressions, body movements, language rhythm, and clothing. At the same time, these things also need to be piled up in detail.
Before, Evan Bell only had a vague understanding of this, and the loopholes were not obvious when he acted out, and he completed the performance of the previous three films well - the dubbing of "Ice Age" is not complete and cannot be attributed class into this scope. But today, Evan Bell finally clearly realized the importance of details!
"I think I need a pair of sunglasses. Maybe it's better to have a rope to hang around my neck. After all, I can't afford better sunglasses with La Roche's status." Evan Bell's ideas are completely open He started talking quickly, "There's still cigarettes. La Roche should never leave his hands. Maybe he learned to smoke when he was a teenager, and smoking is even worse after the car accident."
Seeing Evan Bell's clear eyes, Meryl Streep laughed sincerely. Evan Bell figured it out, although it's impossible to integrate with acting right away, it will take him a while, even a few movies, to get to the next level in his acting skills, but at least for now. Vin Bell has a direction to work towards, and progress is just around the corner. Evan Bell's talent in acting is better than what Meryl Streep saw and felt.
"Hey, hey, Bell..." Spike-Jones' voice rang out of the car window. "You mentioned turtles just now, why are there turtles?"
Evan Bell was stunned, he didn't seem to understand why Spike Jones appeared suddenly, and he seemed to be recalling the part about the turtle, "Turtle. Oh, it's like this, you think, La Roche is already fifty. At the age of 30, it is impossible for him to be infatuated with orchids from the beginning to the end of his life. After all, for a child, orchids are not so easy to touch and appreciate. Maybe, when he was a child, he was very keen on the sea, after all, Miami has the United States One of the most popular beaches, so he likes turtles. But when he grew up, he didn't like turtles anymore. The persistence and fanaticism in his style made him tired of everything related to turtles, so even The sea doesn't like it anymore." This is actually just a fictitious story, but it has some distinctive shapes to John La Roche's style, and it can also show his obsession with orchids from the side.
"It's great." Charlie Kaufman's voice came over, and he didn't know when he came over, "Bell, this is really an important idea, I want to write it into the script, I want to write into the script!"
Ignoring Charlie Kaufman, who got caught up in the idea of his lines, Spike Jones gave Evan Bell a thumbs up, then smiled and said, "What do you need? Sunglasses and cigarettes? Okay, let's see. , Which sunglasses and cigarettes are more suitable." The style of the sunglasses and the brand of the cigarette are the details that determine success or failure.
"There's something you need to knowJohn LaRoche is lit with a cigarette in his left hand, wearing that dirty baseball cap, and a pair of light red sunglasses with one attached to them. Rope, hidden in her hair, "My life is looking for **** profitable plants, understand? It's the ghost orchid. "The lazy ruffian who lives casually looked at Susan Orlin, who came to interview him through the top of his sunglasses, and then raised his head when he looked at the road ahead, watching the road conditions.
When it comes to orchids, Johann LaRoche is eloquent, profanity, but with unparalleled confidence. It's just that Susan Orlin sounds like some self-proclaimed nonsense. Obviously, this man is completely a gangster living at the bottom of society. The three missing front teeth make him look funny, but his obsession with orchids makes him look ridiculous. People are puzzling.
This is Susan Orlin's impression of John La Roche's first interview.
"Ka!" Spike-Jones' voice sounded again, and the irritability in his voice had apparently faded away, but he still shouted into the loudspeaker, "Bell, do it again, you need to be smoother." The same "do it again" request, but Spike-Jones's voice was a lot more cheerful, which shows that the performance has made progress just now. This is a gratifying start.
