467 Benefit a lot
“Renly? Renly？”
A shout came from the direction of the passenger seat. Renly didn't turn his head. He knew just from the sound that it was Nathan coming..
“Renly, are you okay? "Nathan's voice was filled with anxiety and worry, but you could tell that he was trying to calm down, but judging from the trembling voice with a hint of crying, he still needed to continue practicing..
Looking at Renly in front of him, Nathan was like an ant on a hot pot, but he was helpless..
This is only his second work as Renly's assistant, not to mention that he was originally a rookie assistant. However, during the filming of "Fast and Furious 5" not long ago, he experienced a lot of storms and grew rapidly. Come on, the early stage of the filming of "Fighting Cancer" was not smooth sailing. From the first day, things went wrong one after another..
Nathan is studying hard and adapting to his job quickly.
After the filming was interrupted, the crew immediately got busy and prepared for the second round of filming. On the other hand, Renly was still sitting in the driver's seat and did not move. However, on the surface, Renly looked peaceful. What's the problem? None, so naturally no one expressed any concern..
But Nathan noticed something was wrong. He knew Renly. During the break between filming, Renly did not ask for a script, drink water, or watch replays. This was abnormal, so abnormal..
Nathan realized that he should step forward to check the situation. But he hesitated. What if Renly was thinking about the role, what if Renly was reflecting on the performance, what if Renly was recharging his energy for the next scene, what if Renly was preparing for the next scene? Before, it would inevitably interrupt Renly's work rhythm, which would be self-defeating..
At the end of the struggle, Nathan stepped forward and opened the car door carefully, making as little noise as possible. But after seeing Renly up close, Nathan was frightened..
Renly's body was extremely stiff, with protruding veins. His expression was calm, but sweat was seeping from his back. His fingertips were trembling uncontrollably, and even his lips seemed to have turned pale. Obviously, Renly was suffering. Huge pain, even if you clench your teeth and tighten to the extreme, you can't bear it.
Nathan was at a loss. He wanted to help, but he didn't know where to start. He raised his right hand and tried to pat Renly on the shoulder, but before he could put it down, he froze. If he acted rashly, he would be Renly falls into a greater disaster, what should he do?？
Taking a deep breath, Nathan forced himself to take a deep breath to calm down. The panic at this moment would only be of no help..
“Renly, do you need me to call an ambulance? Or call your personal doctor? "Nathan's voice was still trembling slightly, but he still tried to keep his thoughts clear and stared at Renly's side face intently..
The clear-cut facial lines were now tense, and some beads of sweat could be faintly seen on the forehead and ends of the eyebrows. The face was pale and transparent, and it seemed that the blood color was fading away little by little. Facing Nathan's inquiry, Renly There wasn't much response, his expression remained the same as before, but Nathan didn't rush and kept asking patiently..
“Need to ask Jonathan to take a break from filming? Give you some down time? "Nathan was very anxious, but he had to force himself to slow down his speech and asked slowly, "Or...do you need a cigarette? "This is all a matter of urgency. Nathan remembered that when Renly was thinking or anxious, he would always hold a cigarette in his mouth and would not light it..
Then, Nathan saw Renly's eyelids slowly closing, expressing his agreement..
“Okay. Okay." Nathan nodded in agreement, lowered his head and took out the cigarette box from his pocket. Because of Renly's habit, he now carries cigarettes with him. However, because he was too nervous and too eager, his fingers seemed a little uncomfortable. Under control, he tried twice but failed to take out the cigarette box, and then he heard a gentle chuckle..
Very slight, like the sound of falling leaves.
But it was like thunder exploding in Nathan's ears, and he raised his head suddenly, and then saw Renly turning his head, with an almost invisible smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, looking at him jokingly, with a faint hint in his eyes. ridicule.
Nathan suddenly felt that his eyes were wet, and he couldn't help lowering his head in embarrassment, rubbing his eyes vigorously, and then chuckled with relief, "Sorry, I'm always clumsy." After the third try, he finally took out the cigarette box. , then took out one and handed it to Renly.
Renly slowly raised his right hand, the movement was extremely slow, as if even this small movement was suffering huge pain. Nathan took the initiative to put the cigarette between Renly's fingers, and then looked at Renly put the cigarette to his mouth and picked it up. A look of comfort flashed across his slightly frowned eyebrows, and the painful struggle gradually subsided..
“"Renly, why don't you let Jonathan take a break for a while, so you can take a good rest first." In fact, what Nathan was thinking was that tonight's filming ends here, Renly's condition really looks bad. But he I know, Renly won't agree..
“No need." Renly rejected his proposal, his hoarse voice tainted with a hint of late-night water vapor in Seattle, and it seemed that he had finally recovered his breath, "I was just reminiscing about the performance just now..”
The smell of tobacco between the lips and teeth is not strong, it is just like smoke lingering on the fingertips and nose, but it gradually relaxes the tense nerves. People are always prone to dependence on external things, drugs, * **, alcohol, and tobacco are all the same, because in that brief moment, you can temporarily forget reality.
But for Renly, it awakened reality and reminded him: this is a brand new life, different from the last one. What he needs is not paralysis and escape..
“Acting is such an amazing thing, right? "Renly said with a smile. You can experience a life that you have never experienced before, and you can also experience a life that you have really experienced. It is like traveling in a time tunnel, reviewing history, analyzing the present, and looking forward to the future. Between different characters. Travel through time and finally re-examine yourself.
Nathan opened his mouth, but didn't know how to answer. His mind went blank. In the end, he could only tell the truth frankly, "I don't know. I'm not an actor, and I can't be an actor. But I know that not any actor can be like You are so outstanding.”
The corners of Renly's mouth curved upward slightly, "Are you serious, or is it because you are my assistant?"？”
Originally, Renly was just joking, but Nathan took it seriously. He waved his hands in panic, sat up straight, and emphasized, "Seriously, of course I'm serious! I'm serious!" There were countless other things in his mind. I wanted to express the evidence, but my words were stuck. I was so stunned that I couldn't say a word. In the end, I could only repeat it again, "I couldn't be more serious.".”
Such a feeble excuse made Nathan feel helpless. He drooped his shoulders with a look of defeat..
This made Renly chuckle softly, "Thank you..”
He is not sure whether he is a good actor, but he is sure that at least he is a dedicated actor and is working hard to become good, even outstanding. This is enough.
Even Renly himself did not expect that a light comedy sketch like "I Fight Cancer" would actually benefit him a lot. For Renly, the role of Adam may not be the most difficult role in his career. But it is definitely a role that is an important turning point on the road of acting..
Renly considers himself lucky to have met Adam. Even luckier is that Andy brought this character to him.
If he could do it over again, and go through all the pain just now, and all the pain during the filming of "Fighting Cancer", he would still nod his head firmly..
“I'm ready, tell Jonathan, you can continue shooting." Renly came to his senses, took the cigarette from the corner of his mouth, and said.
Nathan did not immediately nod in agreement, but took a serious look at Renly. His tense and gloomy expression became slightly clearer, but still not very good-looking; however, those eyes that were like the vast starry sky glowed again. The energy, this made a big stone fall from Nathan's chest..
“By the way, what happened to the interruption in filming just now? "Renly suddenly remembered this matter. He had been immersed in his own thoughts just now and completely lost his ability to accept external information. "Is it because my performance is not good enough? Did Jonathan make any request? Issues with the pace of my performance? Or is it too strong?？”
“……”Nathan opened his mouth and looked at Renly, who had a serious face in front of him. He knew that Renly was not joking, but was truly conducting self-examination. Even after everything he had just experienced, for Renly, acting was still the first priority. A person who has strict self-requirements and will never relax.
Thinking of this, I swallowed all the exclamations, admirations and surprises in my heart, and all my words turned into a simple sentence, "No, it's not because of you.".”
Renly lowered his jaw in understanding, but did not look back. Nathan understood immediately, and then added, "There was a problem with Anna's dialogue, which caused the filming to have to be interrupted..”
Not to hold anyone accountable, but to get a handle on the entire scene..
Although performance is one person's business and cannot interfere with the other person's performance. He can only focus on his own performance and immerse himself in his own world. However, during the performance process, it is also necessary to consider various comprehensive factors, such as lighting, camera position, and angles. Wait, of course there are also the opposite actors. Only by having a clear understanding of the overall situation can we ensure that our performance is on the right track..
Renly nodded to express his understanding. This meant that the rhythm of his performance was correct and the direction was correct. There was no need to make adjustments..
“Okay, I understand." Renly withdrew his gaze, adjusted his breathing, and allowed himself to settle down again, ready to start shooting again..
Nathan knew that he should leave, and then ask the director and the stage manager whether to continue shooting from the interrupted part after reshooting, or to overturn the entire scene and start over. This was his job, but he still looked at Renly worriedly. , asked again uncertainly, "Renly, are you sure you don't need to rest?"？”
Renly didn't turn his head, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Of course. I can't wait.".”
“"My Fight Against Cancer" is coming to an end. He will cherish every opportunity to perform in every scene. Every scene.
