Chapter 80 080
The joy of defeating Tom Cruise to get the hero of "Righteous Sea Heroes" lasted less than two days before Hugo was shot down into the real world. The so-called reality is: Hugo is a full two grades worse than Tom, and the power of the Golden Raspberry Award has not completely dissipated. The next filming is the real hard part.
"Hugo..." Joseph looked worriedly at Hugo who was still sitting in his seat. Although Hugo had always been positive after the Golden Raspberry Award, as if he had changed his mind, Joseph was still worried about his previous mentality. The fragile Hugo was suddenly crushed again at a certain moment.
But before Hugo turned his head, Kevin did walk across to Hugo first, showing a familiar smile, and then gave Hugo a big hug, "I didn't expect to meet again on such an occasion. "
Hugo stood up with a bright smile on his face, "I'm looking forward to a more friendly picture than just now." In fact, Hugo's head has only a few sporadic pictures of his predecessor working with Kevin Bacon. That's all, but as far as he is concerned, he still likes the actor Kevin very much.
Although Kevin is not the best actor in Hollywood, he has always held a special place in the hearts of many professional moviegoers. Kevin has never been nominated for an Oscar, at least not in 2014 before Hugo Crossing, but this does not affect Kevin's status in the hearts of fans, "The. River. Wild", "Apollo. 13", "Mystic. River", "Fox to Nixon (Frost/Nixon)", "X-Men: First Class (X-Men: First. Class)" )" and other wonderful works can be seen in his figure, there is no doubt that he is a very outstanding actor.
The first time Hugo met Kevin was because of an American drama called "The Follower". In this drama, Hugo really got a taste of Kevin's unique, bizarre, and chilling style. actor charm. An award is the best reward for an actor's work, but not winning does not mean that an actor is not a good actor. Kevin is such a good actor.
Therefore, Hugo still felt very happy when he saw Kevin, not to mention that Kevin showed his kindness to him during the script practice just now. Hugo suspected that Kevin might be the only actor in the crew who welcomed him.
In fact, there are many well-known actors in the future, such as Kiefer. Sutherland, the actor who will rely on "Twenty-Four Hours (24)" to become famous in the future plays Colonel Jessup For example, later with "Mr. Sweetheart (Jerry. Maguire)" won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor Little Cooper-Gooding (Cuba. Gooding. Jr.) is played in the movie One witness, Corporal Hammaker.
But among these actors, the only one who smiled at Hugo was Kevin. It can be seen that the relationship between Kevin and Hugo before is still very good, at least Kevin's smile is very sincere at the moment.
"I believe you can handle such a situation." Kevin smiled and punched Hugo in the arm, "You have such talent, now it's up to you whether you are willing to work hard."
Hugo's debut work was with Kevin, and Hugo was only fifteen years old at the time, and the twenty-four-year-old Kevin had already appeared in several films. He gave Hugo a lot of pointers, and he also watched the rain. The fruit shines brightly in the work "Diner". Afterwards, Hugo's several works by Kevin were full of admiration. Among them, in 1986, the "Silver Quick Hand" Kevin and Hugo were still competitors, but Hugo relied on his own strength to defeat Kevin to get this role. , Kevin is not jealous, more admire.
In Kevin's view, Hugo's downhill in the past two years is just that he is squandering his talent. As long as Hugo is willing to correct his attitude and work hard again, it is only a matter of time before he returns to the public eye. Therefore, when Kevin heard that Hugo had become the hero of "The Hero of the Sea of Righteousness", his first reaction was: Hugo is back!
So Kevin is not stingy with his kindness. Instead, he begins to look forward to Hugo's future achievements.
Hugo picked up the script on the table and shook it in front of Kevin, "I'm ready." What Hugo lacks most now is time, he must have enough time to read the script, not to mention understanding Characters, understand the plot, at least he needs to be able to read the script briefly, and then slowly integrate into the story.
The reason why Jack said to rest for half an hour in a fit of anger was to give Hugo enough time to read the script. No matter whether Jack is in good faith or malicious, but his purpose is this, sharpening the knife without accidentally chopping wood, in order not to drag down the quality of today's script practice, it is necessary to give Hugo sufficient time.
Kevin also quickly understood what Hugo meant. He took the script from Hugo with a smile, "This morning's rehearsal is mainly about Jack. We will practice the scene with Jack first." Then Kai Wen just marked Hugo on the script.
In the play, Kevin plays the government's public prosecutor, Jack Ross. In short, he is an actor who sings opposite Daniel, but Jack and Daniel are friends in private, and standing in France is an opponent.
"Then the afternoon is to practice the scenes of the court debate, because these scenes are the places with the most intense conflicts, the largest amount of lines, and the highest requirements for the explosion of the characters." After Kevin gave Hugo's instructions, he filmed the rain. Guo's shoulders, and then turned to leave. There is no need to be polite, half an hour is not enough, let's leave time for Hugo to work hard.
Hugo said to Kevin's leaving back, "Thank you." Kevin waved his right hand and left the conference room.
Hugo turned his head and glanced at Joseph, showing a helpless smile, and then let out a long breath, "It's time to work hard."
Although Hugo knew that the shooting of "The Hero of the Sea of Righteousness" would be much more difficult than "Smell the Fragrance and Know a Woman", since he could rely on his own efforts to get the role of Daniel, he must do his best, and even hope to achieve The breakthrough in acting is not only for the crew, but also for himself. So what if there are obstacles in front of you? Breaking down these obstacles one by one and regaining the respect you deserve with your outstanding performance is the truth!
Joseph originally wanted to comfort Hugo, but seeing that Hugo had recovered so quickly, his heart that was hanging in the air slowly fell, and now Hugo is obviously trustworthy.
Soon after Hugo sat down, he began to read the script.
In fact, Hugo has seen "The Hero of the Righteous Sea". Although he can't remember the details of the movie, he still has an impression of the general storyline. The role of Daniel is a typical American hero. Evil forces, to achieve justice. Of course, the so-called "evil forces" in "The Sea of Righteousness" are also not quite accurate. This is a story involving the traditions of the American military. Interpretation from different angles will have different meanings. It is just that the law stands for human rights. From the standpoint, Daniel's insistence is the correct one.
In the process of reading the script, Hugo's memory of watching the movie was awakened little by little. The most exciting part of the whole movie was the scene where Daniel and Colonel Jessup confronted each other in court at the end. Taking the initiative, in the end it was Daniel who caught Colonel Jessup's negligence and a loophole and completed the impossible task. The court battle was really hearty, and even made Hugo once have a strong interest in legal dramas.
But at the same time, Hugo also remembered the performance of the original two actors in that scene. Jack Nicholson is still a vicious old man, and it is perfect to put Colonel Jessup such a stubborn, conservative and arrogant. , The image of a strong soldier is vividly outlined, and he is worthy of being an actor at the actor level; and Tom Cruise also dedicated a rare wonderful performance in his career.
There has always been controversy about Tom's acting skills. Tom has been nominated for three Oscars for acting skills, twice for best actor and one for best supporting actor. He is indeed a very good actor. Hugo has so far been most impressed with his performance as "Born on the Fourth of July" in 1989, the first of Tom's three nominations.
But Tom's acting is not outstanding, at least in terms of Hugo's personal preferences, not his type. It's not that Tom's acting skills are bad, but that he doesn't have enough control and often gets out of control easily. In terms of "The Sea of Righteousness", Hugo was most impressed by the loss of control of Daniel's acting skills in France. Tom wanted to show Daniel's control as a lawyer by changing the priorities of his tone. Unfortunately it failed.
First, Tom did not change his "priority", his tone was basically the same, and he couldn't distinguish the key points in his words at all; second, the intensity of light and heavy, the soft part was so soft that people often thought it was Daniel When talking to himself, he couldn't hear clearly, which is not allowed in France; and the aggravated place turned into yelling, Tom equated "loud" and "strong" , but simply using a roar to strengthen the momentum, it has become a bit hoarse.
This kind of situation not only appeared in the work "The Heroes of the Sea of Righteousness", it can be felt in almost all of Tom's characters, either insufficient or too much, and the grasp of strength always lacks three-point fire. Hugo has always thought that Tom's best performance was "Magnolia" in 1999, but it was a pity that such precise control was only amazing once.
Of course, this is just Hugo's personal opinion. In fact, Tom's acting skills in "The Hero of the Sea of Righteousness" have been well received. At least we can see Tom's control and grasp of the character. Although the rhythm and intensity are a little out of control, the excavation and understanding of the character is still worthy of recognition.
What about Hugo? How should Hugo play the role of Daniel? When commenting on others, it doesn't hurt to stand and talk. When it's your turn to play the role, not to mention whether Hugo can be retracted freely and grasped in place, just to say that Hugo can interpret the essence of the role like Tom is a good thing. A very difficult thing.
