The crew paused filming, and Damien, Renly and Simmons gathered around the monitor and began to watch the replay.

There was a faint commotion in the entire Alice-Tully Hall. Although the content of this scene was specifically in Carnegie Hall, Carnegie Hall, which is full of all year rounds, refused to rent to any crew unless It is possible to make an appointment one year in advance, otherwise the schedule will be temporarily disrupted. This is a matter that affects the whole body, so the crew chose to shoot in the Alice-Tully Hall of the Juilliard School of Music.

At this time, everyone is chatting quietly, not only the extras, but also the staff, everyone is exchanging their opinions, just now in this scene, a powerful force can be faintly felt Breaking through the shackles and breaking free, but it has never been successful, but no one can explain the specific details, which also makes everyone's discussion enthusiasm more and more high.

This is the fourth playback.

In fact, they focused on watching a piece of content from about two minutes to two minutes and 30 seconds, changing angles and camera positions back and forth, trying to find the context—

Actors and directors have different brain circuits and ways of thinking. The directors can immediately edit all the pictures in their minds to become the final film, but the actors can only see the performance tension in the pictures, so they are changing When the camera is on, there is a certain disconnect between the connection between different pictures and the context of the story.

Simmons was still confused, the question marks on his forehead not only did not decrease, but even more, he fell into his own thoughts, as if he had fallen into a maze, with more and more forks, and finally completely. lost.

Damien himself was pondering carefully, what was wrong, what part was it, he supported his chin with his right hand, kept biting the dead skin above his mouth, and accidentally tore a small The bloody smell permeated his mouth like this, but he didn't care, bit his lips lightly with his teeth, and continued to think deeply.

"Here, can I replay this again?" Renly said.

Is it a breakthrough? Simmons and Damien cast their gazes at Renly at the same time, but Renly did not look back, just frowned slightly and stared at the monitor screen.

"Wait for my prompt."

This is the clip of Renly signaling the playback. Fletcher's command was over, but Andrew was still beating the drums, so Fletcher stepped forward to ask what was going on, and this was Andrew's answer, followed by a small clip.

On the screen, Fletcher was stepping back, and he showed a clear look when he hesitated. Then he came to the back of the conductor rack, and re-commanded the band to wait for Andrew's instructions.

Renly watched this short three times over and over again, and then said aloud, "Did you feel it?"

"What?" Both Damien and Simmons looked at Renly with bewildered expressions, not understanding what was going on.

Renly could only explain, "Fletcher gave up too quickly."

"What?" Simmons repeated his doubts again, still not understanding; but this time Damien did not speak, but pondered carefully.

Renly said patiently, "What kind of person is Fletcher? Absolute power, absolute dominance, absolute authority! He does not allow anyone to challenge his position, even if he can meet his standards, because he firmly believes that he is Looking for the next Charlie Parker, and no one can challenge him until any drummer is Charlie Parker."

"But...but what if Andrew is the next Charlie Parker?" Simmons understood what Renly meant, and then said his thoughts, "He sensed talent and talent in Andrew's playing, so he Thinking that Andrew can be Charlie Parker, that's why I chose to step back and start to follow Andrew's command."

"Yes, that's the reason for the final change; but it can't happen so quickly," Renly went on to explain, "Let's look at it this way, a king who has ruled the kingdom for many years, who knows he needs to abdicate sooner or later. On the one hand, he is looking forward to seeing a good successor; but on the other hand, he is afraid of giving up his power and then being overtaken by the successor, in such a situation, what might happen?"

"Suppress the successor." Simmons said immediately, "He will definitely use all kinds of means to suppress the successor in the name of tempering the successor, making them aware of their absolute authority, and no one can easily challenge, No one can force him unless he voluntarily surrenders power."

There are countless such situations in the long history. There is no need to look for myths, and there are enough in the real world. Power can make people blind. In fact, this means that even life becomes insignificant, not to mention only "cheap goods" such as family, love and friendship? Almost no one can make an exception.

Renly nodded, "Yes, that's what it means. If the heir isn't tough enough, then it's broken; but if the heir is strong enough, he'll probably keep building up his strength, wait patiently for an opportunity, and..." Then overthrow the aged king, take the throne himself, and take over the kingdom.

"Murder/Father." Simmons blurted out, his eyes lit up, and all the thoughts in his mind lit up.

On the first day of entering the crew, Renly and Damien conducted in-depth discussions and excavation of the core theme of the film, but they never told Simon, but through the advancement and depth of shooting, little by little The transformation of power and momentum is conveyed as in Simmons' heart

A seed was planted at the bottom, waiting for the right moment to take root and sprout.

However, judging from the scene just now, Simmons's touch is still a little lacking.

In fact, Simmons' sharp and cold-blooded performance quality in "Boom Drummer" is largely derived from the character's own setting and charm. The content he gives to the character is relatively limited, which does not deny Simmons' performance strength. , but Simmons' acting talent is still relatively limited, and when he meets a suitable role, he shines brightly; but he still lacks in using his own ability and talent to tap roles.

After "Boom Drummer", Simmons appeared in a lot of works, but on the whole, he did not cause too many waves. He is still the familiar supporting role in Hollywood, and the performance opportunities have increased, but it is more limited to business. in the movie. This is the best proof.

Of course, part of that also came from Renly's performance.

Because all the details of Renly's performance are presented through the drum kit, the space for eye contact and dialogue between lines is really limited, and the camera can capture those details; but for the opposite actors, the difficulty of judgment is undoubtedly more obvious. Said that the misplacement of this communication bond also limits Simmons' inspiration.

Now, after Renly's guidance and on-demand, Simonston suddenly came to his senses, as if the most crucial piece of the puzzle had been revealed, and the entire blueprint was presented with great clarity.

Renly affirmed again, "So, what will the king choose to do?"

For the king, even if he knows he is getting old, even if he knows that his successor can achieve greatness, even if he knows that changing the dynasty is inevitable, but he still can't let go immediately, he will let go at the last moment, even if the outcome is doomed , but the king will still not surrender, at least not so easily.

King, before he abdicated, he still had the pride of king. At this moment, he is not a father or an elder, but a master of supreme power.

In this performance just now, Fletcher gave up too quickly.

Although Fletcher has been looking forward to digging out the next Charlie Parker, the premise is that Fletcher and Andrew are already two people who do not like each other. This performance is simply a trap. Fletcher wants to Completely destroying Andrew's trap, and now that Andrew suddenly got rid of the shackles, and instead overthrew Fletcher's strength, then, what should Fletcher do?

Fletcher was still struggling, still denying, still fighting, and it was not until he finally accepted his fate that he raised his hand and surrendered, becoming a stepping stone to Andrew's greatness.

This little change in mentality is precisely the key factor in the unbalanced power of the whole scene: Renly's performance is smooth and smooth, and he fully shows the process of Andrew's breaking into a butterfly. He completed the murder of his father here However, Fletcher's performance is missing a key part, which is simple and rude, which leads to the content of the performance and the relationship between the characters falling into a vague rut.

Simmons then asked, "So, when should I give up? Is the emotional ups and downs too full in just a few seconds? Instead, it will easily affect the rhythm of the whole scene? Deliberately, could this also disrupt the rhythm of the performance?"

Maybe Simmons isn't a genius, but he's certainly the perfect casting choice for Fletcher. For Fletcher's unique understanding, Simmons has his own interpretation. With countless thoughts spinning in his mind, he quickly captured the key to the problem——

In this scene, too much, cumbersome; too little, defects. Too much, exaggeration; too much, not enough. More importantly, in the short shot, he needs to present too much content. With the entire scene weighted on Andrew, Renly has plenty of time to complete the performance, but what about Simmons?

"Let it be." Damien interrupted the conversation. As a bystander, his senses became three-dimensional at this time, and he could see the information that the parties could not capture, "You can pay attention to Renly's performance. , In fact, the details of Renly's performance are very layered, guiding them bit by bit, you can clearly feel the struggles and confrontations that are about to break through."

"I personally think that Fletcher still wanted to suppress or confront him at the beginning, but Andrew became stronger and better, and gradually..." Damien said, Simmons' eyes brightened Get up, "I understand!"
