2466 reluctant to give up love
Unknowingly, Damien's thoughts followed Renly's lead and entered another level, seemingly opening the door to a whole new world..
Damien knows that Renly is sincere, and he also knows that Renly is right. Maybe if he changes his mind, he can achieve different results. This should be the best solution at this stage. He needs to stay calm and there is no need to be impulsive. The truth is, It's not complicated, he can understand it——
However, Damien still felt a little awkward and lost. He kept glancing at Renly from the corner of his eyes, his resentful and depressed eyes clearly full of worries..
Regret and regret were hard to hide, and his mind was full of "what if" assumptions. It was just that because he was facing Renly at this time, Damien didn't say it directly. However, the thoughts deep in his heart It surged but couldn't stop for a long time. I was angry with myself and a little annoyed..
Renly burst into laughter, "Damien, at this moment, my regrets and losses are no less than yours. I really don't want to miss this work, so I don't have the energy to comfort you right now. How about this, you Speak your thoughts openly and let's talk about it.”
“Really? "Damien looked towards Renly, and then he saw a little fatigue and a little loss in Renly's deep eyes. The familiar bright light dimmed slightly, and the loneliness lingered between his eyebrows. The bitterness made Renly's temperament become lazy..
Damien let out a long breath. Although he was still very regretful, he finally forced himself to cheer up, "I just think you will shine in this work. You know, every move you make is full of gold." The unique temperament of the era is something that other actors have replaced.”
“The initial inspiration for creating the story came from myself, but the most important puzzle piece came from you. I always wanted to tell a story about dreams, but without you, my dreams would have ended long ago. Maybe, I Just like Sebastian, you choose to compromise with life. However, your success inspires me and makes me truly understand that many times, dreams are not about success or failure, but about passion and life..”
As he spoke, Damien's regret surged uncontrollably again, so much so that his voice became slightly nasal, and his sense of grievance burst out..
“Through the lens, I can feel your charm as an actor, and I hope the audience can really feel this on the big screen..”
Damien's sincere and sincere words made Renly's heart tremble slightly..
Renly understood that the passion that comes from the heart cannot lie. It is like a blazing flame that shines brightly. Even in a strange corner that no one knows, you can still have a world of your own. This is the most beautiful and important part of the dream.
Staring at Damien, even Renly couldn't control himself. He just wanted to agree, but his strong self-control still allowed him to control himself..
Damien seemed to sense Renly's move, which made him smile with satisfaction, "But... maybe, you are right. The success of a work requires, in addition to the right script and cast, the right The timing is like when I met you across the street from the Sunset Tower Hotel.”
“And the timing of this work may not be the most appropriate time." Rather than trying to convince Renly, it was more about convincing Damien himself. He let out a breath, "In fact, the narrative focus of this work is More falls on Mia, and the actress can get more room to play. Maybe it is not suitable for you. After all, I have already created "Explosive Drummer". This time I hope to change the focus slightly..”
Actually, this is not the case.
When writing the script, Damien completed the character creation completely according to Renly. He believed that Renly - even in a limited space, Renly could still give the character enough delicate and deep emotions, and he could do it with just a few strokes. to complete the performance; therefore, he consciously left more space for the actress, hoping that the actress could seize the opportunity to show herself and avoid all the light being taken away by Renly, resulting in an imbalance.
After all, "La La Land" is a story between two people.
In addition, Damien's nostalgia for his ex-wife is also hidden in the script. On the one hand, he hopes that she can persist in her dream and succeed like Mia, making her realize that her dream can be persisted, just like him. The same as "The Exploding Drummer"; on the other hand, he hoped that she could feel the same way. If they had persisted, would things have been different? This "if" was becoming an obsession..
“"La La Land" is to Damien what "Crazy Love" is to Derek Doremus. This is why Damien hopes Renly can play Sebastian——
Besides acting, who wouldn’t want Renly to play him?？
But now, Damien can only convince himself this way: changing the angle can reveal different things, and perhaps the work can interpret more possibilities. "Now it seems that our cooperation can only wait for the next opportunity." Renly, promise me there will be opportunities for us to work together in the future..”
“Ha." Renly chuckled. Just like Damien, his mood also experienced a roller coaster experience. "There is no need to wait for the next opportunity. We can have cooperation opportunities now. 'La La Land', I He will still be the producer, remember? I won't leave too far.”
Damien's eyes immediately brightened: To be honest, he really, really enjoyed working with Renly, and the whole process was indeed a pleasure..
“Really? So, can I send you the script and the song Justin wrote tonight? I'm in desperate need of some advice right now." Damien said impatiently. "I mean, in terms of character lines, some of Sebastian and Mia's dialogue always felt like it was lacking a little spark; plus, I'm taking a closer look. To figure out Sebastian's psychological transformation, some details still need more reference..”
“Damien, don't push too hard." Renly pursed his lips and shook his head slightly. The next second you could see Damien's disappointed expression, and Renly chuckled, "You can send to my mailbox, but I won’t be able to read it in a short time. I’m still busy with work.……”
“It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Damien immediately raised his head and waved his hands, "Because it is a song and dance movie, we need a lot of rehearsals, not only the rehearsal of the song and dance performances, but also the positioning design of the camera positions, including the composition of the picture. It takes time to sort it out. We still have a lot of work to do next. The fastest and fastest, it may take three months to start shooting. Your opinions are always welcome..”
After saying that, Damien looked at Renly with twinkling eyes..
“OK.”
Renly gave an affirmative answer. Damien immediately clenched his fists and secretly cheered for himself. His childish behavior made Renly chuckle..
When Renly and Damien walked back through the detour, Andy was the first to cast a questioning look: he was still a little worried that he had acted too hastily..
Renly could feel Andy's caution, and he really regarded him as a glass doll. "Thank you." Renly expressed his gratitude to Andy with his mouth..
Although he regretfully could not star in "La La Land", he sincerely thanked Andy for bringing Damien. In Damien, Renly once again saw that kind of pure enthusiasm, which not only reminded Renly , the significance of the existence of Don Quixote Channel is far more important than he imagined; and it has once again awakened the self that Renly is most familiar with. Everything is about performance, and only about performance, it is that simple..
Andy became slightly excited, but then he could see Renly shaking his head with a dumb smile. Then Andy saw Damien spreading his hands with regret on his face, which made his eyes finally fall on Renly. body, eyes showing doubts.
Renly didn't explain too much, he just walked over with a smile and exchanged a few words. The crew didn't have much lunch break left, so Andy took Damien and left the crew..
Although full of doubts, Andy remained calm until he left the set, then chatted with Damien and understood the whole ins and outs..
Damien described the details in detail. Andy didn't speak, just listened with a smile, and finally let out a breath. Although Renly did not enthusiastically agree to star in "La La Land", this time It still disrupted Damien's plan, but it was good news for Andy. At least it showed that Renly's condition was developing in a positive direction and things were getting back on the right track..
“Andy, is Renly okay? Damien hesitated for a long time, still slightly worried, "His condition doesn't look good.".”
It's unbelievable to say that the whole of Hollywood is cheering for Renly, but as the person involved, Renly has fallen into a trough.？
People who don’t know the reason will probably say that Renly is ungrateful. How many people are willing to trade places with Renly and stand on top of the world and suffer pain; but this is life, like a person knowing whether the water is warm or cold. Except for the person involved, no one can watch. The reader will always only see the beauty but not the darkness.
Andy still had his usual smile, "He just needs some time. Damien, if you have time, you can call or email Renly more and discuss watching movies with him..”
Damien can be regarded as a direct descendant of Sisyphus Films. His talent and ability have been recognized by Renly, and he can cooperate more with the company in the future..
“Really? Damien hesitated, "Wouldn't this disturb Renly's life?"？”
The smile in Andy's eyes grew stronger. How could he not know who was handling Renly's emails? But he knew that Renly would still read those important emails after all. This was enough, "Don't worry. I won't bother. After all, Renly is also the producer of 'La La Land'. He said so himself just now, didn't he?？”
