204 none other than you
This feeling is a bit subtle - your favorite movie is now coming to you, hoping that you can star in this work. The mixed feelings are rising in your chest, and you can't find the right words to describe it for a while..
On the one hand, the ecstasy in your heart bursts out, and every muscle in your body is trembling slightly. Your efforts, your hard work, and your work have finally been recognized, and it comes from a work you like; on the other hand, you can't contain it. I feel terrified. If your performance is not up to expectations, if the director gives up the cooperation after talking to you, if your appearance causes the quality of the work to be lower than expected, then does this mean that you have personally ruined a masterpiece?？
Before that, "Pacific War" and "Buried Alive" were performance opportunities that Renly actively sought. It can be said that they were the result of Renly's careful selection and hard work; but today, the opportunity came to his door automatically, and It is still a work that I love from the bottom of my heart. The wonder and beauty of rebirth have become more real than ever..
“So, this is a movie about the true face of love." Renly suppressed the complicated thoughts in his mind and said with a smile..
Drake was slightly surprised. Before this, he had mentioned this script proposal dozens of times in order to seek investment, but everyone's focus remained on the long-distance relationship, and no one realized that he had written the script. The real purpose had been until this moment; but after thinking about it, Drake seemed not so surprised anymore. His intuition was indeed correct. Renly was not an ordinary actor..
“Yes." Derek nodded and replied in the affirmative, "What I want to discuss is that in many cases, life is not so bloody and dramatic. There is no right or wrong in love, it is just a gradual process. Fading away, they worked hard, they tried, they persisted, but in the end they still couldn't make it to the end. Not every love can go to the end, and not every love loses to reality..”
Not just soap operas, many movies are often accustomed to using a "shattering accident" to create drama when describing love, such as a terminal illness, a car accident, financial constraints, an affair, or encountering a scumbag. And so on. But many times, in real life, there are still many times when there is nothing you can do. Love often dies silently. Everything is over before you realize it..
“Distance is a kind of reality. To be more precise, there is no right or wrong in love, and there is no winning or losing. It is just that love blends into life, or love makes life happen." After Renly said these words, Drake could clearly feel that His expression paused slightly, and the depth of his eyes was filled with mixed emotions, a little excited and a little excited..
The conflict that he was hesitant to express but could not express made Drake feel a little restless. The emotions were clearly written on his face. The hot and restless excitement made Drake look like he was sitting on a hot volcanic stone..
Renly couldn't help but flash a smile of empathy in his eyes. He could feel that Drake was a true movie lover. Maybe Drake was not a genius like Paul Thomas Anderson. , but he is definitely a loyal and passionate movie fan.
“Does this movie have a title? "Renly asked. All his thoughts just now were just his guesses. What if his guesses were wrong?？
Derek opened his mouth to speak, but because he was too excited, he choked on his saliva and coughed violently. He quickly picked up the latte in front of him and took two big sips, which finally relieved him a little, " 'Crazy in Love'. I'm going to call it 'Crazy in Love', you know, everything seems crazy, from start to finish.”
Sure enough.
“Renly." Drake put down his coffee cup, collected his thoughts, and then said, "I know, this is just a love movie, and I'm not Woody Allen; I also know, This is a small-budget independent film, and I have no way to pay you a high salary. But, but! "Drake saw Renly's intention to speak and thought Renly was going to reject him. He immediately raised his hand to stop Renly and said quickly, "I promise, this is a wonderful work! And the test for actors is very severe！”
Because he was too anxious, Drake began to breathe a little, "As you said, I want to explore more about the nature of love through this movie and present the most realistic appearance. Therefore, the actor came to The key is, I need you to show the helplessness and reality in love, not only not to arouse the audience's disgust, but also to arouse the resonance of the audience. The kind of passion, the kind of struggle, the kind of heat, the kind... uh, that This kind of sadness, that kind of complexity... I mean, I need the actors to fully display the complex emotions in their hearts, so that the audience can come up with their own answers without any line modifications or camera language cues.！”
After a while, Drake finally finished speaking. Although it was a little messy, at least he was not interrupted, "I am here to sincerely invite you to play the leading role in this work.".”
After the words fell, Derek looked at Renly in front of him, his mood was up and down, just like a plane encountering turbulence and cold current in winter. No one knew whether the flight could reach the destination safely..
Drake is sure that Renly is the hero he has been looking for, more sure than ever..
Although today's "Buried Alive" was the first time that Drake got to know this young newcomer, Renly's performance on the big screen completely impressed him. His explosive but delicate performance showed the emotional tension. It is so vivid that every audience can clearly and deeply feel the fear, panic and despair of being in a desperate situation..
The most important thing is that Renly's dark brown eyes are full of drama. It only takes one look, and the story hidden in it makes people fall deeply into it. This is exactly what Drake wants for the role of Jacob. Require.
“"Crazy in Love" is a script adapted from Drake's own true story. It would be great if the actor could have enough understanding of his life experience and family background. These invisible details can give the character more The delicate touch. Through the short conversation just now, Drake's initially hesitant mood was completely confirmed, it was Renly!！
Of course, Renly's appearance advantage is the icing on the cake. Although this is not a key element, it is equally important. After all, no one wants to see a curly-haired fat man falling in love on the big screen. This is not a "cup of wine" about a mid-life crisis. "Life", Paul-Giamatti's appearance can easily arouse people's resonance. This is a youthful love story of young people..
Looking at Renly in front of him, Drake's inner anxiety became more and more intense. Everything happened so fast that he didn't even have time to make further preparations. He couldn't wait and hurriedly sent out an invitation to Renly. Such a discovery Only those who have experienced it can understand the feeling of worrying about gain and loss after treasure..
What if Renly refuses? What if Renly isn't interested? What if Renly thought the script was boring? What if Renly feels the subject matter is too dull? What if Renly's schedule doesn't fit? What if Renly didn't want to make an independent film at all? What if Renly's agent wanted him to film a multi-billion dollar production? What if Renly opened his mouth about the pay lion?？
But...but Renly is the only candidate in his mind right now, the unique candidate. If he misses Renly, what will "Crazy in Love" do next? Will he never find a suitable leading actor?？
Countless complicated thoughts were surging in Drake's mind; at the same time, Renly, who was sitting opposite, was thinking about it. This proposal was also an unexpected surprise for him..
From the audience's point of view, Renly likes the movie "Crazy Love"; but from the actor's point of view,？
As Drake said, Jacob and Anna are two very special characters. They don't have too many edges and brilliance. They are completely the two most ordinary college students. They are not geniuses or weirdos. Ka, they are just two ordinary people who can be seen everywhere in daily life - this is also the basis for awakening the audience's inner resonance..
The special thing about these two characters is that they must fully display the joys, sorrows, joys, ups and downs of love. In the absence of edges and corners, this means that actors need to use their acting skills to support the skeleton of the entire character. and flesh and blood, giving the movie a vivid soul.
However, "Crazy in Love" is different from "Buried Alive". "Buried Alive" is pushed into an extreme disaster corner. If the performance is not strong enough, the sense of reality will be insufficient. Moreover, it is a one-man show, and all the tension and sparks are lost. On one person's shoulders; but "Crazy in Love" has room for error, because the story of the entire script is full enough, and the plot and characters can complement each other.
“The story span of "Crazy Love" is very broad, nearly five years, and five years of life are presented in ninety minutes. If you are not careful, the movie will turn into a running account..
If the performance is not up to par, the audience will feel that there is not enough foreshadowing of the emotional ups and downs, making people confused. Although the audience can feel the emotions from the ups and downs of the script, it is enough to understand the director's intention, but it is not enough to understand. The unique emotions of the characters, not to mention triggering reflections after watching the movie..
However, if the performance gives life to the character, then the resonance between the character and the plot can easily bring the audience into the story, and they can easily feel the conflict and tension in the script, the kind of explosive power that flows from the ordinary and trivial life. , enough to shock the soul. Just like the later "Boyhood".
Needless to say, "Crazy in Love" also places extremely high demands on actors, which will be another severe test. But……
“Renly, this role belongs to you! "Drake spoke again, interrupting Renly's train of thought. His unswerving eyes were filled with determination and burning passion, expressing his determination..
