The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone) - Chapter 2477
Lan Li is back.
In fact, this description is not very accurate, because Lan Li has never left, so naturally I can’t talk about coming back. At the same time, Lan Li’s state has not recovered 100%, the butterfly flapping wings and expecting to reignite, but the state and rhythm It still needs time to adjust, and now there is no real return.
But… the way of expression is not important. What is really important is that Lan Li has indeed returned to the right track. The Lan Li, who was crazy for acting, once again returned to the path of an actor. After more than half a year of ups and downs, Lan Li After all, Li persisted in the purest and simplest self.
The filming of the final highlight of the last episode of “Mind Hunter” is finished, but the filming of the episode is still not over, and the daily work is proceeding step by step.
The remaining scenes of the crew are relatively less difficult to shoot, and the atmosphere on the set is much more relaxed. However, Lan Li spends more and more time reading the script.
Usually, when having fun, Lan Li is also very involved, and the iconic pranks reappear again; but after relaxing, the time that belongs to the performance becomes more and more devoted. For others, this is work, and for Lan Li , But to enjoy, he is completely immersed in the world of the script.
Cameron is always going round and round around Lan Li, like a little tail. The whole crew refers to him as “Lan Li’s little follower”, but Cameron doesn’t care at all, on the contrary, he enjoys it more and more. , As long as there is a chance, he will come forward and chat with Lan Li.
In fact, Cameron knew that he could only be a “featured actor” because his size and height were too conspicuous, and the difficulty of losing weight was beyond imagination. This also meant that his prospects in Hollywood were relatively narrow and he was willing to look for his role. They are relatively fixed, and it is difficult to open a vast sky.
But Cameron doesn’t mind. He is willing to become an unknown little actor, just devoting himself to his role performance; of course, making a living is not an easy task, but the “mind hunter” pays Enough for him to live in Los Angeles for two to three years-a frugal and low-key life, this is enough, Cameron can wholeheartedly seek a role that suits him and immerse himself in it.
It’s like Don Quixote.
“…Ha, this is a question without a correct answer.”
When Cameron asked Lan Li what he was reading when he repeatedly read the script, Lan Li couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
After pondering for a moment, Lan Li replied earnestly, “There are mainly two points. These are my personal habits. First, I try to read emotions. In the world of performance, the lives and stories of the characters are often owned by us. Untouchable, such as Holden, I can’t talk to the serial killer, and you can’t get **** with your hands; but the emotions are the same, I hope I can read the emotions of the characters.”
Cameron chewed carefully.
“Many times, our emotions are not single, joy or sadness. We are not children, just like what Pixar Animation’s “Mind Agents” said. We have mixed feelings. This is what we grow up. And the real world is our emotions. It’s more complicated and cannot be generalized simply.”
Lan Li continued, which made Cameron lift his jaw slightly, “You mean, just like Holden, he is afraid of potential death threats, but at the same time he can’t resist the kind of threat to Edmond. Yearning, and then he further began to fear the longing in his heart.”
This is the level of emotions.
Lan Li’s performances are always able to show the character’s psychology in a delicate and rich manner, layer upon layer of penetration, allowing the audience to savor different feelings-obviously, reading the script and reading the lines is the basis, or Say, the starting point, and then build the whole world.
“Correct.” Lan Li gave a smile. “Secondly, I tried to read the story. In fact, there are many similarities with Horton. He is also trying to read the stories of Edmund and other serial killers. Behaviors, attitudes, and emotions can all be traced back to their origins. Those experiences will more or less leave traces on our bodies, and for actors, they need to understand these traces.”
“Psychology?” Cameron immediately took notes in his notebook.
This made Lan Li couldn’t help but laugh, “This is not an acting class.” But Cameron still seriously marked “Psychology” in the notebook, “If you want, you can indeed read some psychology. Books, but this is not necessary. After all, there is still a difference between an actor and Holden.”
“For an actor, the most important thing is to guess and understand. We need to understand the role. This is the core issue. As for whether it is through psychology, through personal experience, or field investigation, this is determined by the actor himself. “While speaking, Lan Li could see Cameron memorizing keywords such as “personal experience” and “field investigation” again, and a smile could not help flowed from his eyes, “Everyone has their own way. The most important thing for actors is to find out their own way of performing according to their own situation. Other opinions are only for reference.”
“… Your own way… The others are just for reference…”
Cameron still recorded these keywords neatly in his handwriting. Lan Li couldn’t help but chuckle with his meticulous appearance. Cameron pursed the corners of his mouth a little bit shyly, “I…I just…”
You may not find such an opportunity in the future. Listening to the acting director in front of Lan Li is not so much a recording of performance skills as it is to record Lan Li’s words.
Cameron tried to explain something, but found that those words were even more unspeakable.
“It seems that someone is in a good mood today.”
There was a voice right in front of him, successfully clearing Cameron, raised his head, and you could see Andy Rogers’ chubby figure walking staggeringly.
Lan Li frowned slightly, and looked at Andy with a critical eye. “Recently, people show up more frequently.”
Andy was very calm, still putting his hands on the beer belly and patted gently, “There is no way, the agent is responsible for it, so I have to work harder.”
Lan Li did not respond, but after looking carefully for a while, he curiously asked, “Did your weight rise again?”
Andy did not speak, staring at Lan Li quietly, protesting with his eyes.
Cameron, who was sitting next to him, could feel the secretly surging oppression, and then stood up slightly restrained, “I…I need to prepare for the next scene, Lan Li, I won’t bother you. Rested.” After speaking, Cameron bowed his head and walked away quickly, his cumbersome figure flying fast.
“Look, you scared the young people.” Lan Li said solemnly.
Andy decided to ignore it, “I heard that the shooting progress has been pretty good recently.”
Lan Li raised his eyebrows and was noncommittal, because he knew that this was obviously not the main purpose of Andy’s visit to the crew again.
Andy knows that he has been visiting the crew too frequently recently. Obviously, this is not the rhythm that Lanly likes. He still prefers to have a quiet and independent environment. But Andy still does his own thing, because he can’t rest assured, after all Worried about Lan Li’s situation.
Andy took a seat next to Lan Li, “How about it, are you ready now?”
Lan Li laughed blankly, “Mr. Andy Rogers, are you oppressing me to get a job right now?”
Andy patted his belly lightly and contentedly, without denying—he is indeed pressing Lan Li, hoping that Lan Li can get back on track as soon as possible, not because Lan Li needs work or career planning. Just purely expect Lan Li to find enthusiasm.
He still likes the blue gift that is desperate for performance. Even in the performing world, the blue gift may be very troublesome, or very troublesome, but that kind of blue gift is fresh and agile, and that kind of blue gift is what it is. Real and beautiful, he really missed that picky Lan Li.
Andy understands that Lanli needs some pressure-pressure from the works. You can have a few more attractive and outstanding works like “City of Philharmonic”, and continue to seduce / confuse Lanli. If you can’t do it once, you can do it twice. If it doesn’t work, just three, four, or five times, step by step to lure / lure Lanli.
One day, Lanly will come back, and Andy firmly believes.
So, Andy showed up again, again throwing temptation/confusion at Lan Li.
Looking at Andy, who was there, Lan Li’s smile flickered slightly, “Don’t worry for now. I still hope I can slow down.”
Although Lan Li’s current positive enthusiasm has revived, he is also looking forward to joining other works and devoting himself to the world of performance again; but he does not want to be too hasty. After all, his current mentality is different from when he joined the industry in the future. His career as an actor is still very long. Everything is possible. He should look forward to more challenges and more possibilities. If you slow down, you may be able to see different scenery.
Andy’s jaw lightly ~www.mtlnovel.com~ don’t worry, of course not worry. We can read the script first, and then choose slowly. Even if we make a decision, we may not start shooting right away. Think about “Jurassic World” and “Rogue One”. After the decision, we waited for such a long time. Put into production. “
“So, did you recommend another “Rogue One”?” Lan Li asked back, and immediately choked Andy.
Andy rolled his eyes and complained, “Why, I recommend’Rogue One’, you really nodded and agreed?” Obviously Lan Li is not such an easy-to-control object, “I mean, you are ready now , Have you read the script again?”
Lan Li let out a sigh of relief, thought for a moment, but shook his head, “No, don’t worry. I need to finish the work at hand first, and then take a vacation for a while, and then slowly start reading the script. Maybe I should go back. Look at the West End, there are quite a few experimental scripts there, which are quite interesting and worth challenging.”
No fame is not profit, the current Lan Li can indeed choose any work freely, in the literal sense, just like Meryl Streep.
Andy didn’t persuade too much, just turned his head and looked at Lan Li brightly, “What about’Manchester by the Sea’?”
