For playing a role, clothing is undoubtedly the most important part, not only for those costume movies, but also for modern works. Suitable clothing is crucial to character positioning..
Imagine that Vin Diesel wears a bright red T-shirt with ripped jeans all day long, acting cool in the "Fast and Furious" series. The picture is so beautiful that people dare not look directly at it..
The Oscar for Best Costume Design is not just set up casually..
The three modern movies I starred in before did not involve too many clothing styles, which were relatively simple. "Buried Alive" was a set of clothes worn to the end; "Fast and Furious 5" was a solid-color T-shirt in a tough guy style. It's the only "Love Crazy" set that's related to military uniforms. In fact, most of them are from Renly's personal server..
Renly's clothes are mainly shirts. For unusual occasions, he has a variety of casual shirts, which can provide different combinations. In addition, Renly also has some clothes in casual sports styles, including surfing and skateboarding. Some clothes purchased later.
The staggered matching of these clothes creates Jacob's overall youthful style, slightly nerdy, but not too shabby due to the carpenter's craftsmanship..
But this time, Adam was not like that.
Due to the lack of sufficient room for development in the script, the character's image and style must be supplemented by objective factors such as styling, housing, and hairstyle..
In the previous life, Adam, played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, had basically the same clothing style as in "500 Days of Summer": a shirt with a sweater, cardigan or pullover, otherwise it was a casual suit worn by young people. Wear different styles of sweaters.
To put it simply, this is the stereotype of a refreshing otaku. However, in comparison, Adam is a little more down-to-earth - or, in other words, old-fashioned. But overall, the two are still consistent. of.
Due to the similar clothing styles, the different characters in the two movies become more and more similar..
The costumes prepared by the crew for Renly did not break away from the stereotype of such a style. They were basically the standard outfit for otakus. However, according to Will's personal style, there were slightly more types of shirts. Today Will wore a plaid shirt. It’s not the rough style of a western cowboy, but a fresh college style with a little bourgeois feel..
However, this is not the Adam in Renly's conception. To be precise, the image of Adam that Renly finally established is not only far from Joseph's version, but also somewhat deviated from Will in real life..
From Renly's point of view, Adam does have a bit of an otaku tendency, but he has his own obvious style..
In private, Adam should keep everything simple and choose a solid color T-shirt without any special cut or design. It is just an ordinary T-shirt, but the size is more suitable, not too wide or too tight, and the color is also the same. Mainly cool colors, but not monotonous black and white, navy blue, dark green, smoke gray, etc..
Because Adam has a very low-key personality. He does not need or want to flaunt his uniqueness. He will not wear T-shirts with rock band graphics on them or strong-style tailored T-shirts..
For Adam, these are too flamboyant and too deliberate, as if he can't wait to announce his personality to the world and constantly emphasize his uniqueness. But in fact, such a choice of clothing is already a label in itself. A label called "personality". Just like contemporary society, it is too exaggerated and too direct. Everything is on the surface and is clear at a glance..
When going to work, Adam will choose a shirt because it is more formal..
Compared with solid color shirts, those retro styles will be more suitable, such as stripes, plaids, and polka dots. It is not an exaggerated design style, but a youthful yet formal college style..
Deep down in his heart, Adam actually admires and admires the culture of the golden age. He is a member of the "Y century" generation, that is, born in the 1980s. He missed the best era of movies, the best era of music, and also missed the best era of music. the best age for literature.
Although he saw the heyday of television and the peak era of dance hall, he benefited from the influence of his parents as a child, but he always admired those past glories, tirelessly absorbed those rich cultural heritage, and imagined that he could return to that time. Just like the story of "Midnight in Paris".
Therefore, compared to the rigid and serious solid-color shirt, Adam's style is closer to Parisian chic and freedom, but with the restraint of a literary nerd..
This is definitely not the otaku immersed in his own world in "500 Days of Summer", nor the dull young man played by Joseph in the previous life, or even Will Reese. He is Adam Lerner (Adam-Lerner), an ordinary person, a living ordinary person with his own personality..
He is low-key, restrained, sunny, positive, slow-moving, and slightly clumsy, but he has his own edge, sharp, sharp, distinct, persistent, perseverant, and refuses to give up easily.
Before the script, Adam's image had already come to life, not only in his clothing, but also in his facial expressions, hand movements, and even eye habits. All the details had become full and full, and there was no need to deliberately figure it out. Deliberate performance, everything is hidden in the blood, completely natural.
Renly didn't need to read the lines at all. He could just close his eyes and imagine Adam's facial expressions and mental activities when he first learned that he was diagnosed with the disease. Everything was so real, as if he was back again. On the day after the car accident, I just opened my eyes and reality had already arrived..
Before the doctor entered the room, he was reading a brochure provided by the hospital so that people could understand some basic information about cancer and treatment. He was very serious, sitting upright in the chair, his back straight, and the fingers of his left hand couldn't help but start to rotate. Pencil - but there is no pencil in his hand at this time, so he can only make an empty gesture.
The sound of the door opening made him raise his head, and his butt/butt left the chair a little, and he wanted to stand up, but found that the doctor didn't raise his head at all, and just whispered "Hello". The two people's eyes did not exchange, and he replied Saying "Hi", he stretched out his right hand, ready to greet, but the doctor closed the door without looking away from the report in his hand. This made Adam act a little embarrassed, scratched his head in embarrassment, and then sat down again..
Adam's eyes followed the doctor, but the doctor never raised his head and sat down directly opposite him. Even after sitting down, the doctor still didn't look at him, but looked directly at the computer screen, not knowing what was happening. Check against what.
He showed a friendly smile, followed the doctor's eyes with his eyes, and was ready to say hello at any time. He even hoped to have some eye contact, but his wait was in vain. The doctor had already started minding his own business. He picked up the recording pen, put it to his mouth, and said, "The patient's symptoms include low back pain and night sweats, and the blood and urine tests are normal.……”
Adam's expression was slightly stunned, his eyes drifted for a while, and he began to study, what brand was the doctor's recording pen? Judging from the buttons and gloss, they seemed to be from Sony. He should have seen them in the electronics store before..
The doctor's voice was still chattering, and Adam's eyes flashed slightly. He told himself that this was his examination report, and he needed to concentrate. However, the doctor's indifference and alienation gave him the illusion that he was The illusion of an outsider, no one can see him at all, he is just a puppet sitting here..
“…… MRI showed that there was intradural malignant neurofibroma spreading in the psoas muscle, accompanied by nerve root compression syndrome and bone erosion. It was located in the L2 to L5 area of the spine. The patient needed a biopsy. Verify condition……”
Adam was a little distracted and his eyes fell on the computer screen next to him. What brand of computer was that? Does the hospital's computer cooperate with a large group? But he had heard before that iPads are now widely used in hospitals. Wait, are iPads out now? It's 2010 now? Or is it 2017? In addition to Apple, other companies seem to have tablets too.？
The doctor's words were like a monk chanting sutras, a lot of unintelligible Sanskrit words, but Adam's attention had been completely lost..
He blinked, took a deep breath quietly, and quickly regained his attention. He didn't forget that today he was here to ask about the results of his inspection report. He had work to do later, and he had an appointment with Kyle in the evening. Go to the bar and play darts...wait, he can't continue to think nonsense..
After gathering his attention, Adam found that the doctor was still talking and couldn't stop at all. The long paragraphs of unfamiliar medical vocabulary were really dizzying. So Adam adjusted his sitting posture and raised his head. He raised his right hand and gestured, trying to attract the doctor's attention, but he failed, so he waved his hand slightly, stirring the air and destroying the stability of the doctor's sight..
Sure enough, the doctor stopped talking, paused the recorder, and raised his head, "What, is there a problem?？”
“Yes, I would like to ask, what brand is the voice recorder? I mean, I bought one before, but it didn’t have all the functions..." Adam asked curiously. After he said it, there was a brief blank on the scene. For about half a second, Adam calmly put down his right hand. , showed an apologetic smile, and then said seriously, "Sorry, I mean, I didn't understand those words just now.”
There was a kind smile on Adam's face, and his dark brown eyes were kept wide open, as if to avoid falling into drowsiness again, so that his expression was slightly funny, "Is there something wrong with my body?？”
doctor，“……”
The doctor just froze on the spot, unable to make any sound, and then the director's speechless voice came to his ears, "Stuck!" As soon as this voice came out, the whole audience burst into laughter..
