"Pacific War", this work is a brother chapter of "Band of Brothers", but the focus angle is slightly different.

"Band of Brothers" focuses on the cruelty of war, and shows the revolutionary/life-changing friendship between soldiers and the ups and downs of World War II through the experience of a company soldier. The theme of "I'm not a hero, I'm fighting side by side with heroes" is even more exciting.

"War in the Pacific", on the other hand, focuses on the effects of the war, and the series is based on the memoirs of Eugene and Robert Leckie, with three characters in series, Eugene-B-Slegde, John-Basilone, and Robert Leckie. The main line of the war revolves around three people, showing the impact of all aspects of their lives in all aspects, aiming to show the profound impact of World War II on each individual individual, each individual family, and even the entire state of society.

Lan Li is about to play Eugene, who carries the core soul and sublimation thoughts of the whole series.

In his previous life, Lan Li had watched the "Pacific War" and was deeply impressed by Eugene. It's a very interesting and complex character.

He was originally a helpless teenager, who was unable to exercise vigorously because of heart disease, but gradually grew into a soldier with blood on his hands and even a little irritable on the battlefield. When he first stepped onto the battlefield, he would vomit when he saw the corpses, vomiting until the bile was overturned, but then he watched his comrades die one after another, and the struggle and difficulties of survival began to distort his beliefs, and humanity disappeared little by little - even when he saw a crying baby, his first reaction was to be people/flesh/bombs, not to protect the weak.

He had firmly believed that this war was the only way to protect his homeland from invasion, but on the battlefield he realized that even the enemies were living beings, and they had their own families and their own beliefs to protect. How did they fight not to defend their homeland, but to kill each other? It made him question his beliefs -- if God loves every people, then why would he allow war to exist? If God is willing to bear the punishment of sin for everyone, then why is he with blood on his hands, not of his own will?

The annihilation of humanity and the collapse of faith turned Eugene's world upside down. He was lucky to survive, but he hated himself like this, because his braver and stronger comrades were forever buried on the battlefield, while he survived with cowardice and cowardice, and he didn't even know how he got back to his homeland, that confusion, that pain, that struggle, was rooted in Eugene's blood.

He returned to his homeland, and he persevered to the end of the war on all fours, but he did not know how to continue his life. Eugene, not Eugene anymore.

In the whole set of episodes, Eugene is the most complete, fullest, and richest character, which can almost be said to condense all the ambitions of the "Pacific War", but in just ten episodes, it shows the grandeur of life. Even compared to "Band of Brothers", the depth and height of Eugene's character is far ahead, and it can be shot into a movie.

Of course, this also means that the performance is far more difficult than you think.

Joseph Mezero, a child actor, is the actor of Eugene in the previous life, and he has a fragile temperament like Bambi, which gives Eugene a special touch, and the dazedness, hesitation and despair in his eyes fit well with the style of the whole series. However, Joseph's performance is a little monotonous, without layers and depth, and he is not able to show the delicate changes, which invisibly weakens the core idea of the series, especially in the second half, the kind of grandeur from falling apart to the silence of the heart like ashes is almost completely not expressed, which is a major blow to the hard work of the main creative team.

After the broadcast of "Pacific War", the professional reputation is still highly praised, but the audience's response is not as good as that of "Band of Brothers".

There are many reasons for this, the first is that Zhuyu has high expectations in the past, and the audience's standards have been raised to a new level, and it is inevitable that they will be compared in all aspects; the second is the shift in the intention of the series, which has led to a change in focus and a weakening of the chemistry of the war scenes; and third, the issue of the reference object of the adaptation must also be taken into account, "Band of Brothers" is based on a novel, while "Pacific War" is based on two different memoirs, which has a certain impact on coherence, especially in the first half.

Last but not least, Joseph was not able to interpret enough depth to allow Eugene to support the soul of the entire series, resulting in the sublimation of the second half of the series coming to an abrupt end, lacking the summary baptism of "Band of Brothers".

The audience is subjective, and the gap between the two works is enough to make them dissatisfied, and the critics are objective, giving enough affirmation in terms of the framework of the series, the quality of the scenes, and the core of the ideology.

Now that the role of Eugene has been taken over by Lan Lilly, what will happen to his performance? Will he be able to meet expectations? Will he be able to surpass Joseph's performance? Can he rely on the power of performance to present the ideas of the main creative team? Can he light up the soul of the entire work of "Pacific War"?

The overall quality of the work is not something that can be changed by an actor, not to mention that Lan Li is still a rookie actor without any acting experience, but the quality and strength of the performance are the responsibility of the actor, and he is fully responsible. It's not an easy task, strictly speaking, it's a difficult one.

Lan Li's blood was rushing rapidly, and the excitement and stimulation brought by adrenaline penetrated into the muscles, and it was difficult to contain the joy of jubilation.

Becoming an actor is his biggest dream and persistence since he was reborn, but everything before this is just on paper, even after experiencing those fragmentary performances in London's West End and Off-Broadway, he doesn't know if he is talented enough to become a good actor, whether he is capable enough to constantly challenge his acting skills, not to mention the huge pressure from his family, which is so heavy that he can't breathe.

Now, the opportunity has finally arrived! And it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Lan Li not only did not feel embarrassed by the difficult challenge, but was extremely excited because of the difficulty of the task. Although this is only his first official performance, he is already gearing up and jumping on the bandwagon.

Relive again, he is not here to look forward and be timid, he wants to really let go of his hands and feet, and continue to sprint to the limit wantonly to see how much light his life can bloom. Born like the splendor of summer flowers, and died like the quiet beauty of autumn leaves, he wanted to follow in the footsteps of Tagore to explore this journey.

After the excitement boiled and surging, Lan Li gradually calmed down. If he wants to complete the challenge, he can't just talk about it, and it is precisely because of the severity of the challenge that he needs to pay more attention. Perhaps, tomorrow he should go to the New York Public Library and learn about the background materials of the World War II period.

For most actors, acting is just acting, relying on instinct/ability and skill to present it, which is enough. However, the ten years of watching movies in the last life, as well as the study experience at Cambridge University and the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in this life, made Lan Li understand that acting is based on the role, and only by fully understanding the background knowledge and life experience, the kind of performance temperament that exudes from the inside out will give the character a vivid reality.

Just as the English aristocracy insisted on learning high art and reading paper books, the inner temperament is difficult to describe in words, but it is often the key to determining the essential difference.

I thought I would toss and turn because I was too excited, but I didn't expect that after my head hit the pillow, I quickly fell asleep. Because Lan Li knew better than anyone that he had been waiting for this day all his life, he had already prepared for it, and now the only thing he needed to do was to recharge his energy and then get ready to go.

The early morning in New York is always particularly noisy, with the deafening roar of car engines, the noisy human voices filling the entire building, and the wailing of the struggle/moaning of the water pipes, which is full of vigor but a hint of impetuousness.

He slept comfortably until half past ten, and if it weren't for the fact that he had plans for today, he would have liked to continue to lie in bed and sleep until he was old. Today, Lan Li plans to go to the New York branch of the Screen Actors Guild of America to inquire about the next itinerary of the "Pacific War" and understand the specific situation, and then go to the library to consult the materials. Lan Li didn't know how the TV drama crew and movie crew worked, and how the actors' preparations were carried out, as a novice, he could only rely on his own understanding and prepare as much as possible before entering the crew.

After washing up, he opened the refrigerator and looked up and down, but he didn't find much food, and then he remembered that he hadn't been to the supermarket in a while, and now it seems that Chris has forgotten about it. I rummaged through it, picked up an apple, stuffed it in my mouth, closed the refrigerator door and prepared to leave.

"Wait. Chris opened the door, T-shirt in hand, and scrambled to put on his shoes, "Wait, are you going to the Screen Actors Guild now? ”

Lan Li raised his eyebrows, revealing a puzzled look, and Chris explained casually, "I'll go over and see what the situation is." ”

Lan Li didn't think much about it, it seemed that Chris had been bored at home for two months, and he probably couldn't wait, so he beckoned and said neatly, "Keep up." ”

Chris put on his shoes and strode all the way to catch up, and then he saw the apple in Lan Li's hand, "...... This is the apple I bought, right? I'm going to get one too. ”

"This is the last one. Lan Li said calmly, and by the way, he took a big bite on the ruddy apple, and the crisp sound was particularly crisp.

Chris stood next to him, his head full of black lines.
