"How dare you" Steven was immediately furious, he had put in countless efforts for this script, which was absolutely unprecedented, and Hugo was such a small actor who dared to question his professionalism and focus, which simply made Steven lose his mind, "You don't know the torment in my heart, you don't know the pain I endured, you don't know the 'fine' effort I put into this play, you don't know the impact of those real pictures on me, you don't know what that history means to me...... What are you, what right do you have to stand there and sneer at me, and what right do you have to stand in front of me and talk to me? ”

Hugo raised his hands and made a surrender gesture, he did not open his mouth to refute, nor did he confront it head-on, but just stood quietly, allowing Steven to vent all the anger in his heart.

Hugo knew that when facing his family, Steven sought warmth; When confronted with his friends, Steven seeks solace. But neither Kate Capshaw nor Robin Williams were clearly the targets of Steven's anger, as they were both friendly sources of help. But when the negative feelings are suppressed to a certain extent, they must be vented, otherwise they will only hurt themselves internally or collapse.

Hugo himself is an actor, he knows this feeling, and during the "Sleepless in Seattle" period, he wrote songs to calm his feelings; During the "Schindler's List" period, he couldn't find sustenance, and his inner torment made him almost pushed to the edge. So, Steven needed to vent, and so did he, so Mars crashed into Earth.

After Steven finished speaking, Hugo waited for a while, looked at Steven who was panting for breath, and made sure that he did not speak again, Hugo said, "So, you are the only one who suffers in your heart, you are the only one who suffers, and you are the only one with such rich mental activity?" Hugo didn't yell and still kept his composure, but he frowned, and a thick sense of mockery came out, "What are the survivors of the massacre?" Are they just decorations? Don't you see the tears left by the 'women' who broke down because of the shower, and don't you see the shame and struggle on the faces of the old people when they are asked to strip naked? ”

"You" Steven roared loudly, he stood up and strode towards Hugo with great momentum, but he was too angry to speak, and could only point at Hugo with his right index finger, and then tremble his fingers and look at Hugo angrily.

Hugo didn't flinch, but stepped forward in desperation, "What's wrong with me?" If you let me play a Nazi, am I going to enjoy it? Don't you see how much struggle and pain I have to play this role well? But I didn't complain or shout, because I knew that my pain was nothing compared to Regina, compared to Ludeger, and I hadn't personally experienced that time, what I called. Empathize, it's all, and so are yours."

Hugo's words made Steven's face suddenly turn blue, and director Roman 'Bo' Lansky had personally experienced that time, he was in Krakow when he was eight years old, and when the Nazis moved Jews from Krakow's ghetto to Prashov, he escaped, which is why the story of the "pianist" is so true.

But this is not the case with Steven, who was born in Cincinnati, USA, and grew up in a modest family, and in his early life, the worst experience was probably the divorce of his parents and the failure of his studies. Hugo's words undoubtedly stung Steven's heart. When he visited Auschwitz not long ago, Steven was only shocked, but did not "cry", for which Steven blamed himself, because he realized that he had not really experienced those hard years, which also made the "Schindler's list" weigh more and more on his shoulders.

"Let me sue you," Steven said in a breathless voice, as if he were an unstable powder compound that could be detonated at any moment, "I have the power to bring you to 'Bo' Lanlai, and I have the same ability to bring you back to Hollywood, and besides, you won't be able to find any job in the future."

"That's how you responded to me? It's like when you are halfway through filming, you choose to escape because you are in so much pain, let the whole crew worry about you, let your wife, your children, your friends worry about you, and let everyone wait for you? And now, in the face of my accusations, the response you can give me is to fire me? Hugo clenched his teeth tightly, not letting himself fall in Steven's fierce eyes, in fact, Hugo was also a little stunned at the moment, at first he just wanted to 'provoke' a little, but when all the feelings were vented, Hugo also lost his mind, couldn't stop the car, and all the irritability, fear, struggle, and pain in his heart all broke out at this moment.

In fact, Hugo, like Steven, needs to vent.

"So, you're a coward," said Hugo, in a loud voice, "and you don't dare to face those pains? Those old people who are about to lose their hair and walk fast are willing to face that cruel history directly, but you don't have the courage? That's the answer you gave me? ”

"If that's the case, then don't make this film, don't start this project" Hugo's inner turmoil was vented unscrupulously, he has now entered a state of selflessness, and it doesn't matter who the person standing in front of him is, "The real meaning of our filming is to recreate that period of history and warn future generations." I believe you know this better than anyone else, and we are the chess pieces in your hands, all working hard for this true and moving story, not only you, each of us is trying, each of us is suffering, but you choose to be a coward? It's ridiculous. ”

Hugo's words made Steven stunned like this, and his whole face turned pale in an instant, but Hugo's words were still not finished, "If you want to fire me, then ...... Then do it" Hugo's words paused slightly, but he still said it without hesitation, worried but firm, this is his choice, even if he has to face an uncertain future, "because I will not choose to be a coward"

Only then did Steven come to his senses and seriously look at the young man in front of him, as if they had only met for the first time today. Hugo's amber 'colored' eyes bloomed with incomparably firm light at this time, bursting out with unyielding courage, the soft 'lips' were only stretched into a straight line, embellished with strength and tenacity, and the soldier-like neat hairstyle at this time outlined his handsome face with the iron and strength left after bathing in the flames of war.

Steven found that he had never really known Hugo, just from the appearance of Hugo is a sunny young man, but in fact, Hugo's temperament is full of countless possibilities 'sex', not only playing the role of 'Meng' makes people tremble, but also shows his incomparable inner strength.

Thinking of this, Steven muttered twice, trying to say something, but found that the words were swirling in his throat and he couldn't say anything. Steven has been in the industry since 1971, it is already twenty-two years, he has seen all kinds of people, and he has seen people who are a hundred times tougher and stronger than Hugo, but Hugo in front of him is so convincing that Steven can't refute it, and he can only whisper in the end, "I just want to slow down...... Slowly. ”

Steven 'rubbed' his own sore temples, but after all, he didn't continue to persevere, and let out a long breath, as if he wanted to express his inner depression and entanglement, "However, you are right, the filming process of this work is a torment for everyone, I am the director and the producer, so I should shoulder this responsibility more than hiding in the house alone to heal myself." ”

Steven's words were very vague, and Hugo could only listen to one half-understood, but Hugo did not interrupt Steven, because he knew that Steven was not really confiding in him, but just trying to clear a thought. After some catharsis, Hugo gradually calmed down, and the darkness in his heart seemed to be dispersed little by little with that shout, but Hugo knew that this was only temporary, and unless the film ended filming, he would not be able to completely come out of the horn. Even so, the brief release made Hugo's tense shoulders relax a little.

The room was quiet, as if half a century had passed, and Hugo saw that Steven's agitated look had finally calmed down, and then he said, "Have you ever thought that I would come to you to 'talk'?" ”

"Nope." Steven shook his head, he thought it would be producer Catherine Kennedy athdeenienned, who had been working together since "Alien B", and the two of them had collaborated on nearly ten productions so far, making them one of the closest partners.

Hugo was not surprised by this answer, he shrugged his shoulders, "Actually, neither did I, and when Robin said this proposal, I thought he must be crazy." ”

"yes, that's a terrible idea." Steven chuckled, although it was only a little sound, and the corners of his mouth couldn't go up at all, but he still laughed.

Listening to Steven's words, Hugo couldn't help but sneer lightly, the whole thing just now is really a little unbearable, the only thing Hugo remembers now is that he yelled at Steven Spielberg, as for the specific content, it seems a little vague When people are angry, they often don't choose what they say, so that they don't remember what they said afterwards.

"I think I should leave, the crew is still waiting for you." Hugo was silent for a while, pointed in the direction of leaving, and then took a step, he and Steven were not friends, so after the two of them roared at each other, the atmosphere was quite awkward, so leaving should be a wiser choice.

Looking at the back of Hugo leaving, Steven suddenly said, "Aren't you afraid that I will really fire you?" You know, I'm really going to do that. ”
