Four Hundred and Fifty-Six Sons Are Hard to Find

When I first saw the bald Renly, the impact and shock was unparalleled, but as time went on, Rooney began to get used to it—at least on a visual level.

But now, deeper reflections are beginning to surge, how did this bald head come from, and what is the story of the performance hidden behind this look? In the past, Renly has sacrificed a lot for the work of "Anti-Cancer Me", and even caused health problems. This is known to all. So what does this show today mean?

Suddenly, Rooney was a little curious, what would it be like to play opposite Renly? She has seen "Buried Alive" and heard of "Crazy in Love", and tonight she witnessed the change in Renly's temperament, which reminded her of the rumors from that time before that Renly had "Dragon Tattoo" The hero candidate of "Women Deserves". If the two of them can both get the role...

Oscar's annoyance and trivia gradually dissipated, replaced by "Me Against Cancer", and Renly's performance, and "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", and... emotional waves, momentary Thoughts were fluctuating and fleeting, Rooney pursed her lips and pointed in a direction, "If you don't know where to start, I think this would be a good choice."

Renly followed Rooney's line of sight, and then saw the cigarette in the corner of his mouth - the cigarette that was torn in half, the tobacco leaves fell in scattered pieces, and it hadn't been lit, that's all Hanging Erlang put it on his lips, Ren Li couldn't help laughing dumbly and twitched the corners of his mouth.

However, before the smile could fully bloom, he calmed down and raised his hand to take down the cigarette, "This is just..." Ren Li said, but halfway through the words, he was stunned and stopped on the cigarette butt. His vision gradually blurred, and he fell into his own thoughts.

Recalling the scene just now, recalling the performance insights just now, recalling the Adam just now, the chill on his head made people very uncomfortable, he couldn't control himself, he raised his head and touched the fur again , bare forehead. The bitterness, sourness, and pungency on the tip of the tongue, like ripples thrown into a calm lake, gently spread out.

During the conversation, it suddenly fell into silence, but Rooney did not interrupt in a hurry, but quietly waited for the following.

"Do you know the Seed?" Renly turned to look at Rooney, and said thoughtlessly.

seed? Does it have anything to do with cigarettes? Or does it have something to do with performance? Or is it related to his work this time? The rhythm of Renly's speech really jumped a bit, Rooney couldn't help but stunned, she didn't understand what this sentence meant, but Renli seemed to be unaware and continued to speak on her own.

"When the seed is planted, it slowly expands, then sprouts, and then bursts out of the ground. That powerful force drills out from the inside of the body, full of vitality, absorbs the nutrients of the soil, and then breaks through all obstacles and grows vigorously. . . All are looking forward to the flowering."

Renly's voice was unhurried, like a whisper from an eternity. It didn't sound like he was discussing performances at all, but more like a Discovery Channel documentary commentary, but he didn't notice his abnormality. For today's scene, Renly is also exploring and researching the performances of method and experience, and even himself is full of confusion.

As he spoke, Renly paused and fell into his own thoughts again, as if talking to himself, "But for the soil, it is cruel pain, gradually becoming decadent and old. , The slow process is a kind of torment, as if everything from the bones to the soul is being crushed. What is even more terrifying is that the seeds bred in this soil are poison or food, no one knows. "

Rooney didn't know what Renly was talking about, she didn't have a clue, she didn't know what kind of movie "Me Against Cancer" was, and she didn't know what scene Renly was filming today,

She didn't even know what kind of situation Renly had gone through. She suddenly looked at Renly like Nietzsche and said a lot of esoteric philosophical theories. She was completely at a loss.

But surprisingly, Rooney felt the same way.

Rooney came from a famous family. Her maternal grandfather was the owner of the NFL's New York Giants, and her grandfather was the founder of the NFL's Pittsburgh Steelers. She was born with a golden spoon; not only that, thanks to family business and sports Sports are all about, and the family is open to kids getting involved in the entertainment industry—her sister Kate entered Hollywood at sixteen, and she herself became an actress at twenty. .

Whether Kate and Rooney are willing to admit it or not, their surname "Mara" and the business empire behind them are destined to receive special treatment - however, not the positive kind, The strange eyes follow, and people always take it for granted that they are just here to play tickets, just like the Olsen sisters, or the Kardashians.

Rooney aspires to be an excellent actor, or even a great one. This is the goal she has been striving for. She stubbornly refused help from her family, and relied on her own abilities to polish her acting skills in the field of independent films, trying to develop A world has emerged, but since her first film work in 2005, her efforts have never been recognized.

She can often only play small roles in low-level horror movies, or supporting roles in low-level comedies. She was finally appreciated by David Fincher and played an important role in the "social network". All the brilliance was taken away by the two male protagonists, and she couldn't even mix a familiar face.

This made her extremely depressed, and she began to doubt herself, whether she had no talent for acting, whether she was just an ordinary person with her dream of being an actor, and even, whether the roles she played before were won by her family relying on the connections behind her. of? All in all, she began to question.

So much so that at the Oscars tonight, the negative emotions were completely detonated. Sitting at the Kodak Theater, she was completely at a loss and could not find any sense of belonging at all.

But at this moment, looking at Renly in front of her, Rooney suddenly realized.

The journey of chasing a dream is never easy, even full of thorns and dangers. This is not an inspirational story of "you can't see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain". In real life, many times, even after experiencing wind and rain, You may not even be able to see a rainbow. It's like nurturing seeds, waiting for the flowers to bear fruit, exhausting all the nutrients in the soil, but there is no way to know whether the final fruit is food or poison.

Persistence, may not be able to win; but give up, will certainly fail. So, keep going, is it smart or stupid?

Rooney's eyes fell on Renly's bald head again, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, but this time, what she felt was no longer joy and humor, but admiration and admiration, "Why don't I know, you still Are you of French descent?"

French people like to talk about philosophy, all the time, even love is inseparable from philosophy, which is integrated into their blood and genes. Renly's esoteric speech just now reminded Rooney of the French, and she couldn't help joking.

"Shakespeare is going to be sad." Renly raised his eyebrows slightly, and said something casually, meaning that it was not philosophy, but poetry.

Rooney paused for a while, and couldn't help but smile, a shallow smile shone in her bright eyes, she didn't continue joking, but returned to the topic just now, "You know what? Humanity is a kind of greatness. creatures, even magical."

"Because, no matter whether the seeds are good or bad, the soil will leave a memory, turn those positive and negative effects into nutrients, and then reshape herself." Rooney suddenly discovered that in fact Renly The words just now were not so profound, and the imagery metaphors became lifelike.

"Every moment we experience, positive, negative, happy, painful, beautiful, ugly, will eventually become a part of who we are, a unique version of who we are."

After saying these words, Rooney fell into silence, and the thoughts in her mind began to surge. This is not just a response to Renly, but also his own perception. After the words were spoken, she could not help but savor it carefully.

Renly was a little sluggish, feeling the slightest numbness running through his blood.

What he said just now was about cancer and countless illnesses. Not just Adam in the movie, not just Will in life, but those kids at Mount Sinai Hospital. That kind of pain is like drowning, filling up the lungs little by little, swelling, burning, tearing, exhausting all the vitality, giving birth to the root of death, and the day when the seeds break out of the ground, life will go away. came to an end.

Life can breed hope, but it can also breed despair.

But Rooney's words are about performance, about dreams, about persistence, and about life.

People are always like this, looking forward to success, all the attention is on the result, but the road to success is ignored, which is a narrow alley full of fragments of failure. Many times, the process is the most important thing than the result. The momentary joy at the moment of success is not worth the wonderful and moving scenery along the way.

As a human being, Renly knew this deeply.

Therefore, he is willing to lie in the coffin and suffer torment in order to explore the performance; he is willing to play "Crazy Love" with a salary of $20,000 in order to explore the acting; he is willing to give up the opportunity to attend the Oscars in order to study the role; similarly, He will not ignore his own life for the sake of performance, he will not forget other people around him for the sake of his dream, and he will not forget the wonderfulness of the process for the sake of the beauty of the end.

Because he knows that on the road of life, every moment, every moment is precious and unique. This is true of performances, as is rock climbing and surfing.

Rooney raised her head and met Renly's line of sight. She didn't need too many words. The starlight and the boundless silence made the corners of each other's mouths draw similar arcs.

The happiest thing in Yu Boya's life was meeting Zhong Ziqi.
