081 Dilemma
Scarlett's small eyes are always filled with a shallow halo, either raised or slanted, staring or glancing, and the charming moments between movement and stillness are always unforgettable..
Looking at the corners of Scarlett's slightly raised eyes, looking at him up and down with lazy eyes like a Persian cat, the smile on the corner of Renly's mouth also changed from shallow to deep. Not only did he not panic, but he also leaned slightly to the side, Leaning on the brick wall at the door, his body became more and more relaxed and casual; his right hand was still playing with the cigarette case, but he was not smiling..
Scarlett raised her eyebrows slightly, a little surprised by Renly's attitude. He was unruly, unrestrained, and had a certain style in his movements..
This was just the first meeting between Scarlett and Renly. She didn't know who Renly was, but from the impression of his appearance and the brief confrontation just now, Renly looked more like a sharp-edged and restrained gentleman. His elegance and wisdom can often take control of the initiative without even realizing it..
But now Renly seems to be wild and arrogant. The arrogance and arrogance lingering in the mist make people think of James Dean. This subtle contrast makes people a little unpredictable..
“I know you have a good hand, but I also know you are bluffing now." Scarlett's pupils shrank slightly, as if a cat has seen prey, and either will not move easily, or will kill with one blow, then The murderous intention hidden in the blur is faintly revealed..
The corners of Renly's mouth pulled down, as if he was amused by Scarlett's words, and his eyes were quite playful, "What do you mean?？”
“You know, there is such a kind of people who always think that they are special and unique, but..." Scarlett drawled out, with a mischievous light in her eyes, her red lips pursed into a line, and then suddenly sketched out," but in reality, they were just a nobody, a nobody that no one had ever heard of.”
“Ouch." Renly cried out in pain, and in response, the smile on his face deepened, "Then this should be a good thing, it seems that you have determined that Ryan can definitely get the role.？”
Renly's reaction made Scarlett a little uncertain. She bit the tip of her tongue gently with her white teeth and rolled her eyes. "You don't look like a loser who would surrender." The reason why Renly chose Staying here is obviously more than just standing here stupidly, so what exactly is he seeking?？
Renly's smile remained unchanged, "Should I take this as a compliment?？”
This watertight gesture actually made Scarlett make a decision. She shrugged her shoulders, showing a completely indifferent look, "Who cares? You can take it as a compliment. This is your freedom. As for what Ryan can do Whether he succeeds in the audition or not is his business, not something I should worry about..”
Renly showed a surprised expression, "I thought you came here specially to accompany Ruian today, just to show that you were destined to win. This is a good story in Hollywood..”
Scarlett blinked her left eye slightly, bit her lower lip with her shell-like teeth, and outlined a sly smile. Seeing the smile getting bigger and bigger, her soft lips gradually slipped from between the teeth, In the end, it turned into a graceful arc, "Haven't you heard about staged photography? In an invisible corner, the reserved paparazzi is pressing the shutter..”
“Filming the scandal between the two of us? "There was a touch of ridicule in Renly's smile, and the frivolous words were well controlled. Not only did they not make people disgusted, but they made people's cheeks feel slightly hot..
“Ha." Scarlett's smile fully bloomed, she chuckled, and walked away from the door. She turned her back to the lobby, faced Renly, and stepped back, "Sir, you overestimate yourself. "The subtext is that with Renly's current reputation and popularity, he is not qualified to have an affair with her..
Renly spread his hands to show his innocence.
Scarlett noticed a small detail. Renly's body left the brick wall and stood up straight again. It can be understood that he just wanted to speak more conveniently. After all, Scarlett was constantly retreating, and the distance between the two was increasing. large; but can also be understood as——
Scarlett looked back, and happened to see Rodrigo's gaze. At this time, Ryan was talking endlessly, but Rodrigo was looking out the window, and the direction he was looking at was... …Scarlett returns to Renly Hall again.
The steps stopped, and the smile faded slightly, but then it bloomed again. Scarlett looked at Renly seriously, "Gentleman, although I don't know what magic you are playing, but I am very interested." Definitely, I had no interest in being involved. If I remember correctly, I was on Team Reynolds.”
Renly felt a little sad deep down when his plan was discovered, but on the surface he said, "I thought you had enough trust in Ruian's absolute strength..”
This sentence made Scarlett laugh without scruple, "This joke is really good." Ryan can be said to be a good actor, but he is still far from the adjective "absolute strength". Scarlett is bold Even Ryan can't avoid the direct spirit of complaining..
Scarlett turned around and walked into the lobby with graceful steps again, her back disappearing behind the thick glass door. The courtyard became quiet again, and Renly was the only one left..
Rodrigo's attention didn't seem to be very focused. Ryan in front of him was still expressing his opinions on the script. His focus was on controlling the rhythm of the story. For a thriller horror movie, it is similar to most popcorn movies. Climax control and atmosphere creation are crucial, but to Rodrigo's ears, these are all nonsense..
Regardless of the rhythm or the atmosphere, these are the work of the director, not the actors. Ryan's understanding of the character is obviously still in the "first part", focusing on how to firmly grasp the audience's tension and how to be like Al Fred Hitchcock uses invisible fear to drive the audience's emotions...but regarding the understanding of the character itself and the sublimation of the script's connotation, Ryan has no point of view.
This makes Rodrigo a little disappointed.
There is no gap without comparison. After watching Renly's performance, Ryan's performance seems simple and straightforward. Indeed, Ryan can accurately express panic, fear, despair and other emotions, which is different from what Rodrigo had in mind. The settings coincide with each other, and there is no doubt that Ryan can complete the task brilliantly; but Ryan's performance lacks layers, let alone depth, and does not contribute to the refinement of the story..
“"Buried Alive" has the potential to be great, but now it is regarded as a good work, no different from other horror movies and thriller movies.
Involuntarily, Rodrigo raised his head and glanced out the window, and then saw Renly and Scarlett who were talking. Across the courtyard, Rodrigo couldn't hear their conversation, but he could detect Renly. The subtle difference on his body - he looks more... uninhibited, with a rough and comfortable demeanor that seems to be at ease, and that elegant and graceful posture makes the eyes stop involuntarily..
Rodrigo didn't have time to study Renly's true personality. The image of Paul appeared in his mind again, not the Paul trapped in the coffin, but the Paul before coming to Iraq..
The humorous, handsome Paul can always win the hearts of girls. In high school, he was a member of the school basketball team and a man of the hour on campus. He always enjoyed life to the fullest and spent his youth wantonly, until he met... to Linda - who later became his wife.
The marriage was always happy and beautiful at the beginning. They had their first child, they had their own house in the suburbs, and their lives gradually stabilized; but the real estate bubble in 2008 set off a financial tsunami, and their bank All their savings disappeared, and their lives suddenly fell into trouble. Then the quarrels began, they began to become alienated and strange, and life began to become difficult and struggling..
Choosing to go to Iraq is a helpless choice forced by life, and it is also a choice to give this marriage some space..
Before the kidnapping, Paul and Linda had a quarrel, and all the dissatisfaction and anger accumulated in the past few months broke out. The pressure of the mortgage, the urging of the bank, the hardship of distance, the education of the children... problems came one after another. The two wanted to tear each other across the phone line, and finally hung up the phone after putting down their harsh words..
Rodrigo saw Paul's life in Renly, which was vivid and concrete, three-dimensional and vivid. The plot fragments in the script began to become real. Even though the "buried alive" story was limited to a coffin, the coffin The world outside began to extend infinitely, and the whole story began to become full and profound..
Rodrigo's inner excitement began to jump up bit by bit, almost uncontrollably. He had the urge to immediately hold a camera and record Renly's every move, and even start shooting a movie right away. The enthusiasm for creation keeps erupting like a volcano, and every cell begins to scream and shout..
“Rodrigo? "Ryan's calling voice brought Roderick back to his senses, "What do you think? If possible, we can re-revise the script and re-plan these scenes, and then we can start shooting. I will have enough time in the next month to complete this work." Ryan said with a big smile on his face. Smile and be ready to work at any time.
Rodrigo looked at Ryan seriously. He did not forget that Ryan was his first choice, and he also wrote the invitation letter in his own hand. He also did not forget that Ryan's current reputation was extremely valuable to Buried Alive. , it will be helpful in all aspects of subsequent distribution, promotion, screening, etc.; he has also not forgotten that Ryan personally came to New York from Los Angeles. This sincerity and investment demonstrate his enthusiasm.
He already has a decision in his mind.
