"Cards!" Nora's voice came, and then she stood up and looked at Hugo helplessly, "Hugo, is there any problem?"

Hugo sat where he was, not speaking. Nora walked over, "Wasn't it all good just now?" Your watch is perfect, why can't it be here? The love of this whole scene is postponed, you can express it in front of you, there is no reason to get stuck here suddenly, is there any problem?"

As soon as the most important scene began, Nora was impressed with Hugo. Although Hugo had already shown a deep understanding of the diagonal 'color' in the previous two auditions, and although Hugo's 'color' performance could be seen in the previous week's shooting, when it came to the main event, Hugo's performance still made Nora's eyes shine.

Delicate, deep but without a trace, Hugo vividly interprets the heaviness of Sam's heart, the faint sadness, and the pain of 'desire' and stopping, with the slight changes in his eyebrows and eyes and the change in the emphasis of his words, which makes Nora have to applaud him. Maybe there is not much acting on the surface, but Nora knows that only when the inner mood is really in place can the table be presented so delicately and 'finely', which is the success of Hugo's acting skills.

But when he came to the second half of this scene, that is, the scene that really moved the audience and moved the 'heroine', Hugo suddenly got stuck, and he didn't look at ease in front of him at all, on the contrary, he had been intermittent and in a very struggling state, many times it was not Nora who shouted a pause, but Hugo himself took the initiative to give up, just like this shooting just now, Hugo directly suspended the interpretation of the lines, and sat in place dejectedly, so that Nora had to shout "card". It's a bad situation, but Nora doesn't know what the problem is.

Hugo looked at Nora standing in front of him, hesitated, but shook his head, "Sorry, Nora, sorry, can I rest for five minutes?"

"Do you need a cigarette?" Nora asked, thinking that Hugo was too nervous, because everyone knew the importance of the scene.

Hugo doesn't 'smoke', but he didn't have the heart to joke at this time, just shook his head, "No." I just, just need to get out and breathe. Then Hugo carefully lifted Rose, who was already asleep, from his big 'lap', and then put a cushion under Rose's head, and after making sure that Rose was not woken up by himself, he quickly left the room, pushed open the 'door' and walked to the back balcony.

The location chosen by the crew for Sam was a houseboat located next to Lake Washington, and the balcony at the back floated on the lake, and Hugo stood on the lake, and the cold wind woke him up.

Before he knew that he was going to shoot this scene, Hugo did a lot of research on the mood of the whole scene, and he speculated about Sam's life as a character - just like he had done before, don't speculate on acting, figure out the horn 'color'. And Hugo knows that the reason why Sam is so disheartened is because the person he loves the most has left this world, and he doesn't know if he will be able to meet a second one.

Love needs opportunities, people will meet countless people in their lives, but only one person can accompany them to the end of their lives, and many people will not be able to meet the right person in their lifetime. Sam once thought that his wife Maggie was the right person, and he wanted to hold Maggie's hand all the way to the point of his life, but cancer took away the love of his life, which made Sam's life fall into despair, and if it weren't for Jonah, he might have left with Maggie. Sam thinks that maybe he will have to spend the rest of his life like this, thinking about Maggie every day and no longer being tempted by someone.

Every time Hugo analyzes Sam's mental journey, he can't help but think of Uma. Of course, Hugo and Uma's relationship has not yet reached such a deep step, and the two have been officially dating for less than three months, and as Charlize said, this relationship does not seem to be deep enough to make people want to die.

But for Hugo, what he lost was not the ability to love someone, but the ability to question his trust, and he didn't know what he had done wrong in the relationship, which made Uma turn away from him. Although Hugo has told himself countless times that it was Uma who made the choice and that she chose her career instead of her relationship, every time after thinking about it, Hugo can't help but wonder if he didn't do well enough to make Uma not have enough attachment to this relationship.

In fact, most men will choose career, and most 'women' will choose love, of course, other possibilities 'sex' are not ruled out. And Uma is not the "most 'female' person" Hugo will always think, what is the reason? There may be countless kinds of 'sex', and each of them is a sharp knife that pierces Hugo's heart, which makes Hugo question this relationship and his trust in himself.

There are too many similarities between this mood and Sam, every time he enters the state Hugo's negative feelings in his heart will be irrepressibly turned out because of "Sam", but Hugo began to shrink back again, he was afraid that his inner wound would be turned out, he was afraid to express the truest emotions in his heart in front of the camera, the taste of pain made Hugo stagnant, and the shame of being red made Hugo afraid.

So, Hugo hesitated. He thought that he could devote himself to the role of Sam without substituting his own feelings, but he failed, he succeeded in the first half of the scene, but when he touched the real emotional part in the second half, Hugo failed, and the hesitation, fear and panic in his heart made it impossible for Hugo to devote himself to filming.

Hugo bowed his head in frustration and stood there at a loss.

The sound of heavy footsteps came, and Hugo raised his head like a frightened bird, and after discovering that the other party was Joseph, he calmed down a little, and turned his head to look at Lake Washington outlined by a string of lights, but the whole person's feelings were still tense.

Joseph looked at Hugo beside him, he originally thought that Hugo had completely recovered, after Hugo and Uma broke up, they completely cut off contact, Joseph once thought that there would be follow-up struggles and pain, but Hugo was interrupted by a sudden illness, and after the illness recovered, Hugo did not mention any more topics about Uma, but devoted himself to the preparation of the band. But it wasn't until today that Joseph learned that Hugo didn't recover, but hastily bandaged the wound and then discarded it, and when a certain trigger point appeared, the pain that erupted in an instant knocked Hugo down in an instant.

For emotional matters, Joseph wanted to persuade Hugo, but he didn't know how to persuade him, usually there is no problem in talking about 'female' topics between men, but emotional problems can not be calmed down in a few words.

Joseph looked at Hugo, who was frustrated and struggling, and said, "I'm sure you can do it." ”

Hugo looked up at Joseph in a panic, he couldn't see clearly in the hazy light, but he could see Joseph's confident eyes, which made Hugo unable to look at each other, and the wolf avoided his gaze.

But Joseph was not discouraged, and he continued, "Aren't you curious about why?" Joseph looked at the back of Hugo's head and didn't mind at all, "Because you can always make the impossible possible." I still remember that when you and Al played against each other, you persevered in such a difficult scene, and even made the whole crew look at you with admiration; I also remember when you worked with Jack, that scene stunned all the staff, including Rob and Jack. You have enough acting talent, and you also have a strong enough inner 'spirit', so although I don't know how to act, I believe you can find the right path. ”

Hugo looked back at Joseph, but Joseph looked away a little embarrassed, obviously this kind of inspirational words still seemed a little awkward when he said it, which made Hugo's tense feelings relax a little.

Hearing Joseph mention Jack Nicholson, Hugo remembered a conversation between himself and Jack, Hugo has always been very curious about Jack's way of acting, so he asked Jack the secret of acting. As a result, Jack laughed, "Hugo, everyone has their own way and method of acting, and this is all unique. Because everyone's life experience is different, the understanding of the horn 'color' is different, and the way of presentation is naturally different, how to combine each corner 'color' with their own special 'color' and become their own horn 'color', this is the so-called acting skills.

At that time, Hugo didn't understand very much, because a person's life is limited, how can he have experienced every character's life', for example, Hugo is now playing Sam, he has never been married or become a father, so naturally there is no way to combine his own experience with his own characteristics.

But now Hugo suddenly understands that what Jack is talking about is not real life experience, but his own experience and past understanding of every corner. For example, although Hugo has not experienced the death of his wife, he has experienced a painful breakup, he knows the sadness and struggle after the end of a relationship, if he can use this experience to understand the essence of the horn, then he can give Sam his own character, because that relationship experience is unique to him.

In fact, no matter what the role is, it is the same - he is a human being after all, or an outlier with human emotions, in short, the emotional part still comes from the human mind. Therefore, the joys, sorrows, and sorrows in his life experience have evolved into emotional changes in the horn 'color', which is the unique performance method that belongs to each actor, because first of all, the life experience of each actor is irreproducible, and the horn 'color' and performance experience experienced by the actor are also different, and the horn 'color' presented is naturally different.

Emotion, this is the most fundamental thing in every corner. What the actor shows to the audience is not his own emotions and his own life, but his own understanding of the emotions of life.

Thinking of this, Hugo's love gradually relaxed, because he realized that playing the role of Sam was not digging into his inner memories of Uma, on the contrary, it was his own emotional pain that helped him understand the role of Sam. Then, what he needs to do is not to firmly hold on to the wound in his heart and be unwilling to let go, but to savor the past experience, and then with this entanglement, pain, and silence, he walks into the corner of Sam, and expresses this real and delicate emotion in Sam's way.
