316 Jedi Reversal
When Steven looked up again, he tried to take two sips of beer from his beer glass, but found that his right hand was trembling slightly, which was so incredible that he had to hold his right hand with his left hand to keep the beer from spilling. After two large sips of beer in a row, Steven felt the sound of his heart pounding in his head - which meant that he had finally recovered from his almost comatose stupor, but he still needed to calm down in his state of shock.
Steven raised his eyes slightly and looked at the exhausted Hugo in front of him, although a large part of the reason why Steven was surprised just now was because of Hugo's completely different image, one moment he was still a sunny boy, and the next moment he was a murderer, this huge gap made Steven, who was not psychologically prepared, suffered a huge impact, so he was so out of shape;
Hugo's performance is short, and there are no lines and no action, but the content is too rich to describe in words. From the very beginning, the eyes are ferocious and cold, but there is a kind of cat and mouse banter and cruelty; The smile that followed was like waving the death scythe in his hand, heralding death; But then the scythe did not fall, but was occupied by kindness and sympathy, and the softness that came from the heart made people almost see the dawn of survival, and even produced the illusion that the other party would forgive them; But the next moment, the scythe pierced his heart without warning.
It is hard to imagine that such an intricate love is actually revealed through Guò's eyes, and Hugo exudes a lazy and dark 'sexual' temperament all over his body, like a red 'colored' poppy 'flower', knowing that it is a bottomless abyss, but still pounce on it regardless of qiē, like a moth to a fire.
This kind of delicate and subtle performance, even the most flowery rhetoric, seems superfluous, and only after watching this performance can the audience savor it.
Steven couldn't help but recall Green's promise when he recommended Hugo to him, "I think Hugo is capable enough to play any role, and he will never let you down, absolutely!" At this moment, Steven suddenly began to feel as if his old friend had really done something remarkable.
Compared with Steven's shock, Hugo was slowly savoring the taste of the performance just now, in fact, he seemed to be under great pressure, with a flash of inspiration, and completed the performance just now in an instant. If he was given a second chance, Hugo was sure that he would not be able to replicate the performance he had just performed, so Hugo had to think about how it felt to have just performed.
In fact, Hugo didn't think too much about the performance just now, because he didn't have enough time, so he started more from the emotion of the role of "Mon" and "Goss", and then integrated into the situation to perform, what he just imagined was that A'mon' looked at the love of his heart, Helen, and the inner definition of Helen's horn "color" kept pulling back and forth between the Jews and his beloved 'daughter', so that the love in A'mon's heart was like a tsunami constantly tumbling.
This reminded Hugo of the performance of "Sleepless in Seattle", which was too deep into the play, he also entered the emotional situation, and then abandoned the formal framework of the performance, and substituted the whole person into the horn 'color', the immersive feeling is like a fairy flying out of the sky, and the horn 'color' is possessed in an instant.
Of course, Hugo knew that the "pondering the horn 'color'" mentioned by Alyi Pacino before was still applicable, and he should be on the basis of pondering the horn 'color', and then start from the emotion of the horn 'color', put some details aside for the time being, and pay more attention to the aspect of the horn 'color' emotion and 'sex' personality.
It's just, is there any trick to this? His own experience is limited, and it is impossible for him to have such a deep understanding of every corner of 'color', as if it is more difficult for him to experience the emotions of A'meng now. What I felt just now should be the feeling of love and hate for a 'woman', or the feeling of emotion and reason, which is much more reliable.
In this way, the smile that he 'revealed' at the last moment seems to be a bit more drawn, because this smile is even more of a kind of bloodthirsty cruelty, but it deviates from the previous track of emotional setting, and it is a conflict between Ah Meng's emotion and 'sexual' personality setting, which destroys the performance of the whole performance.
Thinking of this, Hugo couldn't help but clench his fists in annoyance, his acting skills really still need to be constantly polished, just a fifteen-second look, if he really plays the role of Ah 'Meng', there must be a long way to go
"So, that's your performance?" Steven interrupted Hugo's thoughts.
Hugo let out a long breath and temporarily suppressed the mischievous thoughts in his mind, "Yes, that's my performance. Hugo didn't explain too much, because there were only so many key words Steven gave, and he did his best. Moreover, Hugo performed according to the preset performance of the role of "Mon" in "Schindler's List", if Steven was not looking for an actor for this role, then the performance just now would be in vain.
However, Hugo did not regret it, and the fifteen-second performance also benefited Hugo himself a lot.
"Well, it looks really 'outstanding', and I think I can probably understand what Greene meant." Steven nodded slightly, "That's right, the project I'm currently working on is called 'Schindler's List', which is based on a true story during World War II, a German named Oskar Schindler, who protected more than 1,200 Jews from being killed by the Nazis during the war. I'm currently looking for an actor who can play one of the Nazi officers, and that's what I'm here for today. ”
Knowing that his presupposition was correct, Hugo still inevitably felt some 'waves' in his heart, but he didn't express it, but still recalled: Is his performance just now really good enough?
"First of all, I have a question I want to ask, are you Jewish?" Steven asked, "You know, this movie is very important to me...... Steven has always been ridiculed as Hollywood's No. 1 Jew, and he and Woody and Allen have always been very proud of their Jewishness.
Hugo was not surprised at all, and nodded, "My mother is half Jewish. Hugo learned this from his father, and as to whether the Jewish blood came from his maternal grandfather or maternal grandmother - the Jews were counted according to the mother's race, according to which Hugo's maternal grandmother should have been Jewish.
"Well, that's great, I hope your family won't object to you starring in this film, you know, because this character is a Nazi officer who is constantly persecuting Jews." Steven leaned forward at this time, holding the beer glass in his hand, the expression on his face was not as casual as before, and the expression hidden behind the white 'colored' beard was full of strictness and seriousness, which made the atmosphere in the booth settle down in an instant.
Hugo also noticed the change in Steven, but he still hoped that he wouldn't think too much about it, and still calmly replied, "Of course not, it's just a movie corner." In fact, I think they'll be happy to be a part of this movie. ”
Steven nodded slightly, "You need to gain 'weight', at least twenty pounds (nine kilograms), a happy Nazi officer can't be too 'lean', let alone the Jews in the concentration camps to compare." Hugo nodded his head to show that he understood, and many times image is an important supplement to acting.
"Then we had to leave for the shoot on location in Poland and stay at least three months, so it was going to be hard work and we couldn't attend the Oscars." Speaking of this, Steven paused and glanced at Hugo meaningfully, obviously hinting at Hugo: "Smelling the fragrance and knowing the 'woman'" and "Yihai Xiongfeng" are both Oscar hot 'doors', which is a very important stage for Hugo to show himself, if he misses it, this will definitely make many people beat their chests.
In particular, Hugo's current situation is very bad, and Oscar is obviously a star-studded platform, which is beneficial and harmless; Hugo, on the other hand, is now giving up the opportunity to attend the Oscars for a film with an uncertain future. This can be said to be a dilemma.
Hugo was stunned, his first reaction was not to consider the Oscars at all, all his attention was on the tense audition just now, and now when Steven mentioned it, he thought of this annual event. But in fact, this is not a difficult choice for Hugo, the Oscars are held every year, but the opportunity to participate in such a masterpiece as "Schindler's List" is not often available.
"I'm not going to worry about the Oscars, I'm not going to be an integral part of the awards ceremony, and an awards ceremony isn't going to be an important stopover for my career as an actor." Hugo did not use the words "flowers" and "messy" for many days to express his determination to appear in "Schindler's List", but used an irony to express his true thoughts.
In this regard, Steven 'revealed' a big smile and expressed his inner approval. In fact, it takes courage for any actor to miss the Oscars and choose a new work with an uncertain future, but Hugo's performance is impressive.
"One million is the best proposal I can give because we only have a budget of $20 million." Steven said crisply, with no intention of beating around the bush at all, "And, I tell you, in my opinion, this is a work that is doomed to fail, and I am just trying to fulfill a dream." This is the second time Steven has mentioned this sentence today, and "doomed" can be seen in the huge pressure in his own heart, which makes Hugo feel heavy in his heart
"Well, I've said all that's to be said. I want to ask, would you like to be a part of this crew?"
