The sound of "Ka" came into Lan Li's ears, but he didn't leave the performance state immediately, but lowered his eyes and fell into his own thoughts.

lines, this is the most important and difficult basic skill in the acting skills of the Academy Expressionists. However, in the modern film industry, including the contemporary theater industry, the status of lines has dropped again and again, and they have gradually been ignored by people.

The reason is not complicated, on the one hand, the expression techniques of contemporary film and dramatic art are becoming more and more diversified, especially the addition of visual effects, which makes the expression of dramatic conflict and depth of thought more and more possible, and the absolute dominance of lines no longer exists; Philosophical esoteric lines seem to have become obsolete.

Not to mention Hollywood, even the best British scripts, the lines are gradually becoming popular. Scripts like "Detachment", which not only end with a lot of monologues for reflection, contemplation, and philosophy, but also end with Poe's poems, are really rare and valuable.

In fact, for Lan Li, the test of this line is also the limit of the limit. After all, his academy education is already a modern and improved version, and while they still perform a lot of ancient plays, the lines of modern plays are no longer so deep.

The reason why excellent lines are outstanding is that they are well thought out, who said them, to whom, to whom, under what circumstances, why did they say this, what kind of personality said what kind of words, what kind of background brought about what kind of language habits, and what is the deep meaning of the lines, and why did the character choose to say it on such an occasion?

To sum it simply, it fits the setting of the character and the context of the story.

Why did the last line of the "detachment" play choose Poe's poetry, just to satirize the loneliness of the times and the desolation of society? If the emotions only stop there, then what reflections does Meredith's suicide bring? Then what should be said about the ending of Henry and Sammy? So what does the desolation of Sarah and the school mean? Obviously, the script is not only like this, but finds a glimmer of hope in that decadence and vicissitudes, in that boundless sea of suffering.

Such simple but esoteric lines, such complex but delicate emotions, this poses a severe test to Lan Li.

The basic skill of the lines actually lies in the practice, starting from the rhythm, sentence breaks, articulation, accent, intonation, tail and other details, giving the sentences fresh vitality and showing the deep meaning behind the words;

The lines of this scene just now, before the official performance, Lan Li repeated at least one hundred and fifty times, chewing on the emotions in it. "The Fall of Usher House" is well-known in Europe, and its artistry has been recognized by countless people, reflecting the current situation of the entire society at that time, but there are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand people, and the same verses are used on different occasions and different characters, and the meaning is naturally different.

Lan Li guessed seven or eight different options, and finally chose the one just now. When he finally put into the performance, Lan Li completely entered the state, his head was ethereal, and he could feel the slight resonance with Henry in the depths of his soul.

Construct characters based on methodism and interpret characters in an expressive way. This is different from the performance of any previous work, Lan Li knows that this can only be applied to "detachment", thanks to the academic style of the script, this can be done, and changing a work will not work. Still, this attempt once again gave Lan Li a glimpse of a potential way to merge the two ways of acting.

However, it is precisely because the performance is so dedicated, so focused, and so smooth that Lan Li also understands his own shortcomings more and more: experience.

Judging from the "detached" graduation exam, he did meet the passing standard, but in the process of preparation, he spent countless energy and time to give full play to the mystery of "diligence can make up for clumsiness", and the ability to adapt on the spot, understand the role, and play the basic skills are difficult to satisfy.

Whether it is the 71st shooting of the bus scene or the filming of the final scene, it can be seen behind the scenes that he has reached the standard in terms of basic skills, but how to integrate the basic skills into his performance, he can still only be regarded as half a professional actor, and there is still a long, long way to go before he is a real professional actor.

Of course, there is no shortcut to expressive acting, only to constantly polish and temper yourself in the performance, and the experience is accumulated in actual combat again and again, and finally integrated into the body and muscles, becoming a kind of inertia of performance, and even gestures, smiles and smiles are all plays.

This is also the reason why British academic actors have to go back to the stage of London's West End every once in a while to exercise, just like a car, after too long, the engine will rust.

Lan Li couldn't help but think of Paul's joking joke before: Broadway or London's West End.

If he finds an opportunity in the future, he must return to that stage, preferably in a classical play, that is, a traditional theme such as Shakespeare, ancient Greek tragedy, and Italian comedy, because this kind of drama has an almost strict standard for testing basic skills, especially the understanding of lines. This is the essence of the passage of modern drama.

For the first time, Lan Li realized her youth. It's not just that he is young in terms of age, although he is now over fifty years old in terms of two lives, and his perspective on the world is naturally different, but the youth that has been precipitated by time, whether it is in the previous life or this life, Lan Li's social experience is too little after all, and the ups and downs of life experience are not enough after all.

Even in this life, he began to lay the foundation of culture at an early age, and received a professional education from the Royal College of Art in London, and the ups and downs of the two lives also gave him different views on life, the world, and society, which were precipitated in the performance, which was also the reason for the success of several other works before "Detachment".

But "detachment" made Lan Li realize: he had only studied at the academy for two years, and spent less than six months in London's West End and Broadway. To put it simply, he still has too little time to stand on the stage. He is not yet twenty-two years old, and he has made the most of every inch of his life, but he is still too young after all. Like those old academic actors, which one has not been immersed in the stage for more than ten years or decades.

Expressionist acting skills are so simple, the efforts of the audience can be reflected on the stage, just by virtue of talent, if you want to break out of the world, it is difficult, it is difficult to reach the sky.

As Thomas-Edison said, genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration, and it is that one percent inspiration that lays the foundation.

For the expressive acting skills of the academy, constantly polishing themselves, constantly refining themselves, and constantly accumulating themselves, sweat gradually becomes a part of the body under the precipitation of time, and finally completes the transformation. This is a process, a process of refining into steel, hard, torment, difficult, but without going through, you will never be able to complete the qualitative change.

Not long ago, a "Fighting Cancer" gave Lan Li a further understanding of methodological acting and experiential acting, and now, a "detachment" has made Lan Li re-sort out his attainments in expressive acting.

Since entering Hollywood, it has been about two years, starring in a TV series and five movies, thinking that his acting skills have become a small success, the praise of the media is endless, and he has even been nominated for Oscars, but now it seems that the long road of exploring acting has only just begun.

This time, Lan Li seriously began to think that he should choose a classic re-enactment of Broadway or London's West End, and polish it down-to-earth.

Thinking about it, the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't help but rise. He liked the challenge, he liked the process, and maybe George and Elizabeth were right, he wasn't a genius, but he was convinced that he had a little talent, if not one percent inspiration, and that he was always there, and he was going to stay on that path. The scenery along the way is so wonderful, how can he be willing to miss it?

Raising his head, Lan Li looked over, looked at Tony, and shouted, "Director, how is this scene? Do you need me to go over and watch the replay, can we discuss it again?"

A shout broke the silence of the crew, and everyone turned their heads to look at Tony in unison.

Tony shuddered and came to his senses. Then he raised his right hand and shook it vigorously, "No!" This scene is just two sets of shots, no close-up, all the shooting has been completed just now, which also means - "Perfect! Everything is perfect in place! I can officially announce it now, it's finished!"

Originally, he thought that after he finished shouting, everyone would cheer, but Tony looked left and right, only to find that everyone was lost and suffocated, and he had to jump impatiently, "What, you are going to do it again?

As soon as these words came out, everyone finally came back to their senses, and cheers rang out, "Roar!
