The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)

Chapter 2454 Set sail easily

“Should we read the script aloud now? Or should we talk about characters?”

It was Hult who spoke first.

Not only because of his older age, but also because of his personality, he is more accustomed to proactively attacking and controlling the audience. The steady and atmospheric tone does not appear to be too aggressive or condescending, and the transition is completed naturally, even in the face of Lan Li and Lu. A super big name like Ni has no stage fright.

Lan Li cast a glance at Rooney, a slight smile appeared on the tail of the raised eyebrows, and a faint light of mischief flashed in the bottom of his eyes.

Rooney understood immediately: Read the script aloud? Or discuss the role?

Regarding this matter, to be precise about the performance, Ren Li discussed the work “Mind Hunter” with Rooney before. At that time, Lan Li did not know that Rooney might appear in Wendy, they only discussed the state and rhythm of the performance. Considering the current situation of Lan Li, he felt that he needed time to explore.

Just like Holden.

In the script, Horton, who debuted on the scene, is a young nerd, in a suit and leather shoes, serious and dull, about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old-perfectly fitting with Lan Li’s age, this is also David Fincher In terms of appearance and temperament, the key point he has always adhered to is arguably the character that has been closest to Lan Li in recent years.

At this time, Holden was a crime scene negotiation expert. When criminals kidnapped hostages and made requests, it was when Holden appeared to assist. In addition, Holden was also responsible for teaching new classes at the FBI headquarters. Agent Jin, tell them how to handle the on-site negotiation correctly.

However, Horton’s rigidity is full of rules, and too much emphasis on academics and full of esoteric vocabulary, which makes his classes often unpopular. Not only students, but also colleagues and supervisors are all about Horton’s courses. It’s full of confusion and can’t fully understand it.

In fact, Horton has always been studying the profile of criminal psychology. His intuition can always vaguely capture the context, but lacks the support of the theoretical framework, which makes his knowledge fragments unable to connect into an effective system. I am trying to change the status quo, hoping to get the attention of my boss, invest more resources, collect more information, and even be able to communicate directly with criminals in serial violence cases to prove my ideas.

This is how Horton was before he met Bill Tench.

Highly focused, smart, sensitive, inspired, talented, rigid, lacking flexibility, not sociable, passionate, and acting in its own way.

As David said, Holden is like a jade, starting from scratch, slowly polishing, and gradually growing. To a certain extent, it is indeed very similar to Lan Li, and somewhat similar to Lan Li who entered the “Pacific War” crew. At the same time, the series has enough length and space to allow Lan Li to slowly sculpt and polish the characters. All the focus of the first season of “Mind Hunter” fell on Holden, and further gave Lan Li opportunities.

Nevertheless, “I am still not Holden.” Lan Li thinks so, the deviation of state and situation, the difference between character and temper, these are all objective existence, even if two people are at a similar pace, but Lan The ceremony must be adjusted and pondered slowly, otherwise it will be a disaster.

Lan Li seriously thought about how he should be involved in the performance: it is undoubtedly the best choice to reduce the complexity to the simplicity and truly present a simple state.

Lan Li couldn’t help but think of the performance of “Interstellar Crossing”, which was also the case at the time. On the one hand, he needed to play his father, which was a completely different challenge; on the other hand, he needed to capture the power of time, which put forward more performance power. Requests, coupled with the cooperation of two young actors, so Lan Li adopted the method of moisturizing things silently, living as a “father” in daily life, and gradually reflected on the characters.

“Mind Hunter” can refer to it, penetrate Holden’s feelings into life, and then unknowingly insinuate it to the character to complete the transformation.

To put it simply, it is to extend the performance to life, both in and out of the play live in the way of Holden; but it is different from the situation of getting caught up, because Lan Li needs to adjust and polish the details through big and small things. Such as words and actions, such as thinking styles, such as eye movements.

Only by breaking away from the script and slowly speculating and simulating the “Horton’s behavior pattern” in real life, can Renly and Horton be truly distinguished.

Rooney couldn’t help but think of the “Burst Drummer”, she was a little worried, because Horton, like Andrew, eventually walked towards the cliff bit by bit, then, does this mean that Lanly may also fall into the “Blast Drummer” shooting again What about the predicament of the period? The nightmare seems likely to repeat itself at any time.

But Rooney understands that Lanly, even if he does it again, he will still choose “Burst Drummer” and then experience a roller coaster-like performance experience. If it was her, she would be the same. Essentially, they had too many similarities between them, and she couldn’t stop Lan Li.

It’s hard to tell. In the end, Rooney agreed to play the “Mind Hunter”, whether some worries were mixed with it, maybe, maybe not, she appeared here anyway.

At this time, Lan Li’s eyes were hinting at this: it was not reading the script aloud, nor discussing the role, but taking the role.

Rooney could perceive the excitement and excitement that Lan Li could not help but exude, faintly with a little mischievous playfulness. Although she was still worried about it, she couldn’t help but get excited. She also raised her eyebrows and flashed secretly The moving eyes seemed to say, “I will join together.”

The exchange of eyes was just a blink of an eye. Hult didn’t have time to observe, and Lan Li and Rooney had already doubled their sights.

“Reading the script aloud? Oh, sorry, I haven’t communicated with the screenwriter for the time being. What is the work arrangement of the crew today? Is there a specific script-reading session? Are there any specific requirements? Do I need to start now to make preparations? Do you have any special precautions?”

Lan Li’s eyes were very focused, watching Hult earnestly and intently, and sincere and sincere in the depths of his eyes, he officially entered the state of work.

On the surface, Lan Li is no different, and the dialogue still goes on smoothly; but when you taste it carefully, you can notice a little difference: Lan Li’s words are very clear, even the vowels that may be slightly less noticed. And consonants, he kept as complete as possible.

Such small details are very, very concealed, and ordinary people cannot detect it at all. Only a few people who are sensitive to pronunciation and tone can understand——

If you excessively pursue clear pronunciation, it is like a robot. The words with round words are too rigid and rigid. Every word and every word is carefully bound by a frame, from pronunciation to grammar. Invisible, the whole restraint Feeling makes the expression and demeanor formal.

Of course, Lanli is far from “robot” level, but the professional sense inside and out can really make people feel the formality of translator or diplomat, which is between mechanical coldness and ordinary casualness. Invisibly, the image of Horton was carved up little by little.

The same is true for Lan Li’s focused and devoted vision. His unsquinted concentration is completely professional. It seems that as long as the conversation is going on, all his attention will be on the person who is talking. There is no evasive sight or absent-mindedness. The 100% concentration unknowingly creates a kind of excessive enthusiasm pressure, which makes the conversation partner vaguely feel the heat of the line of sight and start to feel uncomfortable.

However, Lan Li is still in the debugging stage, his voice tone is still slightly blunt, and his eyes are slightly over-focused, and he may not be able to fully fit the ideal Horton; he needs more time to adjust slowly. Run-in, and finally find out the most suitable state for Holden.

Hult didn’t notice the difference in details in Lanly’s words, and faintly felt that it was…too enthusiastic, especially the intent eyes, “Uh…no, no, no.” Hult simply used two sentences. After finishing the adjustment, “We have no special arrangements, just the habits before shooting.”

Lan Li gently chins his head to express understanding.

Hult glanced at Rooney, only to find that Rooney was smiling, her eyes lowered slightly, as if she was thinking, but her expression was also very focused. It could be seen that she was listening attentively; but she was not aware of it. The look in the eyes makes others feel mysterious and unpredictable.

It seems… also extremely focused.

Invisibly, Hult’s pressure increased, but he quickly gained a foothold, “I know that most film crews are not so used to it. Now it’s more popular in Hollywood to roll up your sleeves and go straight to it. The shooting cycle is shorter and the production is shorter. The pace is faster, and this link is omitted; but the TV crew still retains After all, we will all need to get along with our characters for a long time to come.”

The concise but well-placed explanation takes care of the situation of Lan Li and Rooney who are “accustomed to film shooting mode”, and at the same time does not appear to be too pretentious or cynic.

“I currently don’t have a clue about the role, so I guess it will take some time to get used to it.” After the conversation turned, Hult returned to the topic.

Lan Li’s eyes remained motionless and locked on Hult, “Oh.” He sighed softly, as if he was thinking about Hult’s words, “Then what do you suggest? We should start by reading the script. What? And what is the way to discuss roles?”

“That’s…” Hult took advantage of the situation and prepared to explain, but then the abnormal feeling surged up. He shook his head repeatedly, “No, no, this is not right. You shouldn’t be guided by me, and you don’t need these. Guidance. You know what you are doing. Yes, you know what you are doing!”

Hult’s eyes lit up and his gaze went back and forth between Lanly and Rooney, “God, you two will join hands to tease me?” Hult couldn’t believe it, and raised his left hand to touch his short hair in annoyance. With surprise on his face, “You! Honestly, are you two guys playing pranks?”
