1383 Reckoning
“In ancient Greek mythology, no father is willing to actively sacrifice himself to achieve the success of his son. To be precise, in most of Western culture, no father is willing to do this; on the contrary, in Eastern culture, such sacrifices and devotion abound.
The question now is, if Fletcher knew, would he be willing to sacrifice himself? Or passive sacrifice? Does Fletcher's so-called artistic perfection need Andrew to complete it? Can Andrew finish again? Also, was the father-killing complex accomplished unilaterally, or was it guided and interacted by both parties? This has an impact on the connection of the core ideas of the entire story, and more importantly, it also has an impact on the shaping and improvement of the characters..
Does JK need to know? It should be up to you to decide.”
Renly finished expressing his thoughts and became quiet; Damien did not speak, but fell into deep thought..
Damien is a director with ideas, but after all, he is just a newcomer. "Breaking Drummer" is only his second work. It is inevitable that some ideas are not mature or perfect enough. Even if Those talented masters will inevitably make mistakes in the early stages of their careers..
Renly is an actor with ideas. After performing in so many works, he has gradually formed his own insights and understanding. As a producer for the first time, he is not sure how to control the work. It is more about conveying his own ideas. ideas, and then leave the director enough space to think and create.
Today, Renly, as the producer, had a conversation with Damien, the director. The two of them did not realize that divergent thinking would eventually reach this point, so Renly did not call JK Simmons over..
Now, it’s up to Damien to decide whether Simmons should know the entire story. To be more precise, it’s up to the story and script that Damien conceived..
Renly has always believed that an excellent script and an excellent character have a soul in themselves. They can speak, speak, and think on their own, and they are vital. Of course, such scripts and characters are very, very important. Rare, not often encountered.
Why are Billy Wilder and Woody Allen considered master screenwriters? It’s because most of the stories and characters they write have souls, and because they can truly write witty words and make witty remarks..
Now, Damien must sort out his thinking. How should he arrange the so-called "father-killing complex"? How should the roles of Andrew and Fletcher be set up? Especially how should the foreshadowing of the ending be arranged? This not only had a decisive impact on the entire film, but also on the performances of the two actors.
After completing all the exchanges in a confident manner, Renly also felt a sense of relief..
In recent times, in order to prepare for the role of Andrew, in addition to practicing the drums, Renly has also been thinking about the entire story and the relationship between the entire mission. Today's conversation was just a small exchange, and in the end it was able to collide with such a fierce The sparks of the fire made Renly himself excited and excited..
Sure enough, he still missed the crew. Or to be more precise, he still missed the performance..
It’s really been a long time.
The conversation came to an end, Damien was lost in his own thoughts, and Renly relaxed slightly, and then he came back to his senses and noticed the presence of Melissa and Black..
There was a trace of confusion in Renly's eyes. He had no memory at all. When did these two people appear? Also, why does it appear?？
Of course, Renly's eyes fell on Damien, and he simply thought that they should come to say hello to the director, so he raised his head, smiled and nodded at the two actors, and then Just stand up and prepare to leave, leaving space for them.
But then, Renly realized that he was the producer. Now Damien was thinking about whether it would be bad if the actors were allowed to interrupt Damien's contemplation.？
Renly's movements paused for a moment, and he stayed in place as he left, "Good morning. The script reading will have to wait a little longer. It will start in about thirty minutes. You can sit down and rest now, and chat with everyone. Let’s chat. JK was just discussing customization with the costume team. If you are interested, Melissa can go over and ask now..”
Like a spring breeze.
Renly was still the same Renly, as if what happened in the morning had never happened. There was nothing wrong with his calm attitude and proper etiquette; but it was this calmness that made people's hair stand on end. Melissa couldn't help but I started to suspect that everything that happened in the morning was just a dream..
“Renly." Black took half a step forward and covered himself in front of his fiancée, but hesitated to speak..
Renly raised his eyebrows slightly, and immediately caught the change in Black's expression, and interpreted the look on that face. The corners of his mouth still maintained a smile, "If I were you, I would turn around. Get up, go to the clothing team, and discuss Melissa's customization instead of standing here in a daze.”
The meaningful words left Blake stunned..
“I see! Damien jumped up without warning, smacked his hands hard, and said cheerfully, "Renly, that's it, just keep the status quo. You perform in your own way, and everything else is as usual.".”
The subtext is to hide Simmons temporarily.
Through the performance and the advancement of the story, Fletcher, played by Simmons, realizes Andrew's growth bit by bit. He welcomes it all with joy and looks forward to the growth of his successor until one day, Frye Che felt the threat from Andrew, and gradually began to feel panic and fear, but it was already too late, because Andrew was already full-fledged..
Keeping Simmons in the dark, Renly's performance will show this layer of tension, and then achieve a natural performance effect. When the plot of killing his father comes at the end, Damien will tell Simon Si, the tragic and tragic sacrifice is outlined through the lens, further forming visual tension and conveying shock..
There is no doubt that Damien is a talented director, and his delicate sense of the integration of characters and stories is evident now. Later, he smoothly achieved the pinnacle of "La La Land".
Renly nodded in affirmation, "No problem..”
Only then did Damien notice the figures of Melissa and Blake, and said briskly, "Hey, you guys have arrived too? Welcome, take a rest and adjust, and we can start the script reading..”
“Damien." Melissa's voice rang. She didn't know when she came around from behind Black and stood in front of Damien. "I'm sorry, I offended Renly today. Here, I express my gratitude. I sincerely apologize, I didn’t mean it, I really didn’t mean it. I will never do it again..”
Black realized something was wrong. After chewing Renly's words carefully on the tip of his tongue, he finally tasted some of them. He tried to stop Melissa, but in the end he was still a moment too late. Melissa actually blurted out like this. , which made Blake wrinkle his cheeks in annoyance, and all his facial features were crowded together..
damn！
Renly is a man of his word, and he has no intention of punishing Melissa at all. What he said just now means：
As long as Melissa obediently shuts her mouth now, he will pretend that what happened in the morning never happened..
But now, Melissa took the initiative to break the news. Her original intention was to seize the opportunity and express her sincerity in front of the director; in the end, she shot herself in the foot..
Sure enough, Blake then saw endless confusion and confusion on Damien's face, and he had no idea what was going on..
Renly still had a calm demeanor. But this time, he didn't speak to defend Melissa..
He is not a saint, and he has no intention of becoming one, because he has no intention of letting things go, he just decided to settle the score temporarily; now that Melissa has taken the initiative to reveal the truth, of course he will not help cover it up, why? What's more, Melissa eagerly took the initiative to confess, not asking for forgiveness. In essence, it was the evil person who complained first, and was the first to please Damien, and then prevented all Renly's subsequent reactions in advance..
It was a small trick, but in Renly's eyes it was extremely clumsy.：
Has Melissa forgotten that Renly is the producer of "Breaking Drummer"? If Renly wants to punish Melissa now, no one can stop Renly even if Damien pleads for mercy..
In other words, Melissa is deliberately irritating Renly and trying to disguise herself as a victim. The best result is to be expelled from the crew, and then Melissa can become the center of attention and stand as a weakling. On the moral high ground? Now all the performance is to force Renly for the camp step by step.？
this is a possibility.
Although Renly does not think that Melissa and her agent do not have such wisdom to operate such a complicated public relations and publicity strategy, it is still a potential possibility. Although it is completely ineffective for Renly, similar tricks and conspiracies , it’s really too childish and too bloody..
Renly, as the person involved, now had the detachment of a bystander, casting a scrutinizing gaze with relish..
Faced with Melissa's words, Damien was confused and confused. Blake could only step forward in a panic to help clean up the mess, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..”
After apologizing again and again, Blake pulled Melissa and turned around to leave. There was no need to stay now, and the best result was to live in peace like this. Standing here, Blake was not sure whether Melissa would make things worse.
Melissa still tried to stay, but the power gap made it impossible for her to stand firm, and she was pulled away by Blake in a hurry..
Damien, who stayed where he was, still couldn't react, "Uh...what's wrong?"？”
