Two Thousand One Hundred and Sixty-Nine Lazy Charm
The third update today, please recommend, please subscribe!
In the work "In the Clouds", the character with the most dramatic conflict should be Natalie played by Blake Lively. This character has another obvious psychological transformation process during the whole story.
Relatively speaking, the roles of Ryan and Alex don't seem to have much room to play, but in fact they are.
There is one quality in both characters, Ryan and Alex, that is maturity. This is a trace that has settled down over the years and cannot be erased from age. To make an image metaphor, when you are tasting a cup of coffee, you may be anxious to drink the first sip when you are young, and prefer to add milk and sugar; When you are young, you will not be in a hurry to drink the first sip, and your reliance on cream and sugar will also decrease; after entering middle age, you will slowly start to learn to taste hot black coffee; in old age, a cup of coffee will become leisurely. The most beautiful existence in the afternoon.
Of course, this analogy is a generalization, and maybe not so accurate, but it is a good description of a trend of aging. In Ryan and Alex, there is this elegant charm that has been condensed over the years.
Throughout the story, Alex actually shows very little conflict, but her mature, lazy and sexy charm is the most brilliant and difficult part of the role. Don't underestimate this "maturity", in fact, Alex's maturity is very complicated, not only has the understanding of life, but also has a short escape from family life, a faint nostalgia for Ryan's embrace, Being proactive about work and life, and having a solid understanding of interpersonal relationships, this inner complex cohesion has become a maturity, which is fully reflected in Alex's lazy smile.
It is not easy for Charlize Theron to play the role of Alex well. He must have a harmonious Tai Chi gossip player, which is not only possible by his own performance. Therefore, Evan Bell knew from the beginning that the role of Alex would be the biggest difficulty for Charlize Theron, because not only does he have no acting crutches, but he also needs a restrained and extremely rounded brilliance.
Sure enough, Charlize Theron analyzed the role of Alex in great detail and complexity, but he was too obsessed with these details and lacked the understanding of taking a step back.
Charlize Theron can't really admire Evan Bell. Just the first scene he shot, he gave himself a "disappearance" and gave him a fresh understanding of the whole character. Charlize Theron realized that in terms of acting skills, it is not only limited to the script and the understanding of the characters, but also the understanding of the entire story framework and character background.
Take "One Day" as an example. Although the film and novel only select July 15th every year to tell the story, is it possible that Emma and Dexter spend time at other times besides this day? Is there no intersection? Of course not, movies and novels just use artistic techniques to integrate the invisible time and content into the day of July 15th.
Even if it's just a simple day, but this day is not such a simple day in the character's entire life, everything has cause and effect. Even if it is just a simple story, it is bound to be linked to this one event from countless previous events, and more and more wavelengths will be generated because of this one event. No person or thing can exist independently.
It's not the first time Charlize Theron has known about this statement, otherwise she wouldn't have performed so well in "The Devil". But today, inspired by Evan Bell, Charlize Theron has a clearer understanding,
Especially for a character like Alex who has no leverage, how to perform and how to grasp it is a very difficult process.
"Evan, I need to adjust." Charlize Theron said immediately when he realized that there was still a mistake in his understanding of the role. However, she also noticed that Evan Bell's understanding of characters and scripts is different from that of most current Hollywood directors. He attaches great importance to the existence of characters as independent personalities. This is not a biography of a film. It is a very special point of view. So Charlize Theron said, "Evan, I want to talk to you about the role of Alex, okay?" She thought she could definitely benefit a lot from the conversation.
Evan Bell smiled, "Of course, even if it is for you to play well, I will never refuse."
Blake Lively stood beside him, but fell into another thought of his own. She was not complacent because she guessed Evan Bell's idea correctly, on the contrary, she settled down and began to think about the role of Natalie. This kind of opportunity to break through the bottleneck is not very common.
When Evan Bell and Richards Theron officially entered the shooting, Blake Lively was still standing behind the monitor, carefully pondering the performance of the two actors.
This time, Charlie Theron changed the rhythm of the entire performance. Her right hand was no longer a wine glass, but her phone. A glass of tequila was just placed on the bar. Before Evan Bell noticed her, she kept her head down. When texting, it could be a work matter, it could be a family matter, it's all possible. This simple transformation makes a big difference in the first impression of the character.
"Are you satisfied with Mesto (American car rental company brand)?" Ryan asked.
A woman in a white silk shirt and a black one-line skirt is sitting on the back chair of the bar, texting in her right hand, and holding a bunch of keys in her left hand, fiddling with her fingertips. Her blond curly hair hangs casually on her shoulders, her right hand rests on the back of the chair, her long hair hangs down, she is lazy and sexy, but her expression is very focused. Busy things take all the attention.
Hearing the voice on the other side, the woman raised her head, she raised her face straight, those eyes looked at the man in front of her with clear and distant eyes, she didn't even plan to look at him, just fixed on the man's face in front of her. At this time, he looked at the keychain in his hand, "Yes, I'm very satisfied." The woman lowered her eyes and turned her attention back to the phone, obviously not too concerned about the man in front of her.
"Their mileage is very strict. I like Hertz (the American car rental giant)." Ryan nodded slightly with pursed lips.
When the woman heard this, she raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her, "No, Hertz's car is too old. I never drive a car with more than 20,000 miles." But after she finished speaking, her gaze stopped. Hanging down again, he saw the phone screen again.
"Mesto can't check out immediately, I like to stop and go." Ryan was not in any hurry, just continued to follow the woman's words calmly, his calm tone was sexy and magnetic.
These words made the woman put down the phone slightly, frowning quietly, obviously the man's words interested him, "Hertz does not provide navigation."
"You don't look like a lady who needs to navigate.
' Ryan replied.
Although the woman still had the phone in her hand, her eyes really stayed on Ryan's body, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, with a lazy sexy between the drooping hair, "I hate it. I asked for directions, so I chose the navigation service." After speaking, the woman lowered her head and focused on her phone again, as if there was some important work there, which showed her invisible rejection to men.
But how could Ryan give up so easily, "The new company Colonel is not bad." His words suddenly made the lady stop her work, and the smile on her face was a bit shocked and incredible, she was ridiculous Say, "Is this a joke?"
"Yes." Ryan's answer immediately made the woman's words start to grow. "Their booths suck." "Never upgrade their service." "Their cars are like a bunch of broken boxes, I really don't understand. Why do they still work?" Ryan's conversation with the woman just went back and forth, and immediately went into adept mode.
"I'm Ryan."
"I'm Alex."
Ryan showed a faint smile, not an exaggeration, with a mature charm that could not be expressed in his steadiness; Alex also showed a shallow smile, the smile was not big, and the eyes flashed, but there was a difference between his eyebrows. The languidness that exuded after a touch of exhaustion exuded a fatal charm in her drooping blond hair and her white shirt with two buttons open.
"Ka!" Robert Faris called out, bringing the scene to an end.
Evan Bell and Charlize Theron both walked behind the monitor to watch the replay just now, but Blake Lively, who was standing behind him, began to reminisce about the scene just now, although Charlize- Theron still didn't control her eyes, but her mature and lazy feminine charm made people unable to take their eyes off her. It only took a back-and-forth dialogue of less than 30 seconds to instantly grab the audience's heart.
In this scene, outsiders can't actually see anything, but Blake Lively witnessed the entire shooting process, but he can clearly feel Evan Bell's control over the entire scene as the director, as well as his body. For the actor's ability to control the performance, people can't help but want to applaud.
Not only Blake Lively, but Charlize Theron as a client, has this clear feeling. After watching the replay, she thought for a while, "Evan, give me a little more time." She still Need to adjust again, this completely restrained performance is also a challenge for Charlize Theron.
Evan Bell stood next to him and laughed, "Tick tock, I'm still waiting for you to go to the cinema to watch 'One Day'." This suddenly made Charlize Theron also laugh.
