For Renly, father figures are foreign.
In his two lives, he has always lacked a father template worthy of reference. Even the majestic and rigid, distant and dull impressions in his memory are slightly blurred. On the contrary, the image of Mr. Dunlop or Mr. Hamilton is more vivid and vivid, but There are only some fragmented fragments left in my mind that cannot be pieced together completely..
Now, in "Interstellar", Renly must play a father, a kind and warm father; moreover, the bond between father and children is the core clue of the entire movie, which is very important for Renly's career as an actor. It's definitely a special challenge.
Starting from "Pacific War" and "Buried Alive", Renly has experienced various characters. Although he has never experienced many stories and scenes personally, such as war, such as being buried alive... and so on, there are hidden in those stories. The emotions behind the characters and experiences are real and clear, and they can all be truly felt, or at least simulated; not to mention works such as "I Fight Cancer" and "The Ballad of Drunken Country", those experiences are almost like Renly's. A true portrayal of personal memories, the texture and touch of the interpretation process are unique..
It is precisely because of this that Renly studied and explored the level of method acting, truly experienced the madness and wantonness of a madman, and then completed the transformation and progress of his performance, which made him the current "Renly-Huo" you”.
But the story and characters of "Interstellar" are completely new, not only because Renly is not a father yet, but also because Renly cannot find the corresponding father in his own experience, and even the corresponding emotions and Emotions become blurred, which undoubtedly creates more difficulties and frustrations for the performance..
This is like building a mirage. Even though it looks beautiful on the outside, it is still a castle in the air without a foundation, and the final performance lacks some sincerity..
However, Renly is no longer the rookie performer he was back then. Even compared to the "Exploding Drummer", Renly has been truly transformed. From the expressionist school to the method school and back to the expressionist school, the performance of Transformation and precipitation are no longer the same, and the understanding and perception of performance are also completely different..
Renly will no longer simply limit himself to his own experience. Instead, he will start from a purely emotional perspective and build an entire world system through what he sees and hears, including the books he reads, the movies he watches, the stories he listens to, and his insights. Your experiences, the news you browse, etc. can all become sources, extending from yourself to others, and ultimately forming a universe to draw inspiration for your own performances..
So, this returns to one of the fundamental differences between Methodism and Expressionism：
Methodists emphasize that they take on the role themselves, and even go so far as to experience it personally in order to integrate themselves into the role, just like Renly lay in the coffin for eight hours during the filming of "Buried Alive". Therefore, every performance consumes countless energy of the actor, and it is impossible to be immersed in a role. Extricate yourself, even lose yourself eventually.
Expressionism emphasizes the interpretation of roles by oneself, distinguishes the stage from life, and presents the same actor's interpretation of different roles, different experiences, and different emotions. Naturally, actors can truly reach the peak of one person with a thousand faces, and can play different roles with ease. Switch between roles.
In other words, even without the immersive character experience, Renly can still complete the performance; and he has gone further than when he was just starting out in London's West End. He can use method interpretation to interpret expressionist emotions, thereby improving his performance. Texture.
Therefore, the role of Cooper in "Interstellar" is not a problem at all for Renly.
Even without any reference object, he still captured the family atmosphere and parent-child relationship quietly, interpreted it in his own way, and easily controlled the overall situation firmly in the palm of his hand. This ability It's absolutely extraordinary. You can see from the side that Renly's acting ability has made a qualitative leap..
Just now, the entire shooting seemed relaxed and natural, with no trace of acting at all. It was completely like an ordinary family's morning routine. This is Renly's current skill..
Because of his nervousness and anxiety, Timothy accidentally looked into the camera during the smooth shooting, just like when Renly shot the first scene of "Pacific War". Generally speaking, unless it is "The Big Short" ", "Deadpool" is a special work that breaks the dimensional wall and directly talks to the audience. Otherwise, looking directly at the camera will break the game and have to start over..
If it were another crew or other character, Renly would definitely talk to Timothy about his original experience to ease the atmosphere and relieve stress; but now Renly is Timothy's "father", even if father and son get along like friends, Some words and some things are done differently after all. Therefore, Renly did not take the initiative to mention this matter, but dealt with it in a different way..
“Don't worry about the camera, you need to look at your sister. Just stay focused, remember? You are causing trouble on purpose, naughty boy." Renly's tone was a bit reproachful but not harsh. He made a small joke in a gentle tone. "Naughty boy" is actually Mackenzie's next line. Now Renly is The lines were placed on Timothy, and the staff all chuckled knowingly..
Following the atmosphere of the scene, Renly focused his attention again, "Still, I haven't fully woken up yet, and I need to go out for a run to wake up.？”
Although Renly and Jessica mentioned during the discussion that the performance needs to be subtracted this time; the basic character construction and background conception still need to be in place..
Cooper is a former pilot who has received professional and systematic military training. After an accidental flight accident, Cooper voluntarily applied for retirement because he blamed himself too much and became a professional farmer. That nightmare is still haunting him today. Cooper, he still wakes up easily in the dead of night - he is still too sentimental after all. The accident caused the death of his teammate, and he still can't let go..
It is precisely because of this that Cooper's relationship with his children is more military-like. Although Cooper did not strictly extend the camp management method to family life, he still retained the warmth and comfort of the family; but in terms of life details, Always maintain strict requirements, hope that things will be in order, and maintain the habit of training every day, while also requiring Tom and Murphy to participate.
During the rebellious period, Tom showed strong resistance. In order to express his dissatisfaction and protest, he often deliberately called his father "Sir" - which can also be understood as "sir", using this way to emphasize the youth. emotions.
In his words, Renly continued this habit intentionally or unintentionally, quietly creating the true situation of the Cooper family. The boundaries between drama and life were truly blurred, which was very important for the two young actors. Entering the drama is of great help.
After Timothy was annoyed, he felt the seriousness in Renly's words. He coughed twice, then straightened his back and prepared himself again, "I'm ready! I'm awake! I'm ready now Okay! Sorry, I just made a mistake. Let’s do it again. I promise I won’t do it again..”
With the same words, it is difficult to tell whether it is Timothy or Tom at this moment. But what is certain is that young actors more often act in their true colors, and it is difficult for them to accurately distinguish the difference between their characters and themselves. It’s just that during the performance, emotions can often be naturally integrated into the performance, making the whole performance complete. Now Timothy has gradually entered the state..
Few people on the entire set could notice it, Jessica and Anne were just a handful. As for Christopher, he just needed a feeling that fit the scene and the whole movie. This was enough, and would not He casually criticizes actors' performances. After all, this is not his forte..
At this time, Christopher saw this, simply waved his hand towards the recorder, and then started filming again.
……
“Dad, can you fix it? "Murphy turned his attention from his grandfather to his father with some confusion..
Cooper paused what he was doing, turned around and walked over with the coffee in hand. There was a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and he said with slight surprise, "What on earth did you do to my landing module?"？”
“Not me! "Murphy immediately argued eagerly..
Tom, who was sitting across from him, immediately said naughtily, "Let me guess, it's your ghost."？”
Murphy didn't mean to be joking at all. He frowned and explained seriously, "It shook it off the shelf, and so did many books.".”
“There is no such thing as a ghost! idiot! "Tom leaned his upper body against the dining table, raised his chin slightly, and secretly made a face to express his complaint..
“Hey! "Cooper stopped Tom with a voice: no swear words are allowed, and they are such ugly swear words..
Murphy was immersed in the argument with Tom, "I looked it up in the dictionary and it should be called naughty boy.".”
Tom looked like he was too lazy to complain, shook his head slightly, lowered his head to eat his breakfast, and said helplessly and speechlessly, "Dad, tell her.”
Cooper was carefully inspecting the broken landing module. He didn't speak immediately, but was confused: It really didn't look like Murphy had dismantled it himself. Could it be that it was really broken?？
After a pause, Cooper followed Tom's request and said to his daughter, "It's not very scientific to say this." Murphy.”
But Murphy was unwilling to compromise, "You said that science is about acknowledging the existence of unknown things..”
Donald, who was busy, raised his eyebrows and said, "She's giving you a hard time..”
After Cooper inspected the landing module, he finally chose to give up. Without further reflection, he simply said, "Hey, don't mess with our stuff anymore." Obviously, this was not the first time that Murphy broke something by tinkering with it..
After finishing speaking, Cooper turned around, picked up his coffee again, and prepared to leave.
But Donald called his son-in-law, "Cooper." He shook his head slightly, with a trace of determination in his eyes..
