"What? What the hell is going on?"

Seth was full of question marks, and he felt a little out of step as he watched Lan Li and Will walk into the room. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Lan Li is really too maverick, from the first moment of today's appearance, Seth felt that common sense had been broken many times, and he couldn't understand Lan Li's every move at all.

Yes, he can understand Lan Li's thoughts and concepts that he wants to communicate with the screenwriter, but why are the two of them communicating alone? And then leave the other rival actors aside, what is this? Shouldn't the first thing an actor do when he enters the crew be to cultivate a tacit understanding with his rival actors?

Judging from the number of rival scenes, he and Lan Li have the most cooperation, and it is not a simple matter for the two of them to interpret the tacit understanding behind that kind of friendship.

Judging from the chemistry of the rivalry, the cooperation between Anna and Lan Li is the most difficult, Anna will play the role of a psychiatrist and communicate with Adam, which is a little embarrassing and a little warm.

Judging from the degree of disparity in the rivalry, Bryce is the one who Lan Li needs to communicate with, because she will play Adam's girlfriend - who later betrayed Adam, and the two chose to break up. The relationship between the couple is a very important part of the branch.

In other words, the whole movie is based on Lan Li as the core character, and then radiates a circle, and every link is closely related to Lan Li, but now, Lan Li has left everyone else aside, communicated with Will, and even refused to let other actors join it, which is really weird!

Seth turned to Anna, Bryce, and the others, and cast inquiring looks, but everyone looked confused and couldn't answer. Seth glared at Bryce as if to say, "Shouldn't you be his girlfriend? This refers to the characters in the play.

Bryce spread her hands and looked at Seth speechlessly: how could she possibly know?

If you think about it carefully, from the time of telephone communication, Lan Li did not play his cards according to common sense - otherwise, how could any reasonable person be willing to be ordered to star in such a low-budget independent work, and also shave his head, when the Oscars are about to be held.

Thinking of this, Seth was comforted a little.

Nathan walked out, then closed the door of the room, blocking everyone's probing view, turned around, and found himself in the center of attention, which made him tremble, "Huh...... I went to the bathroom. "Thirty-six strategies, go is the best policy.

Lan Li looked at the room, simple and elegant, the original wood furniture, no superfluous decoration, simple and simple, the bed/top is a cool blue color, you can see some work supplies on the table, neatly arranged.

"Is this the same style as your own home?" Lan Li asked.

"Well, it's pretty much the same. Will nodded in affirmation, but then thought of something, adding, "But none of these things are mine, they are all repurchased." ”

Lan Li smiled dumbly and sat down at his desk, only to see Will still standing stiffly not far from the entrance. In comparison, Lan Li is more like the host, and Will is the guest.

From this small detail alone, it can be seen that Will is not a personality who is good at socializing, and he is also relatively slow to heat. Even in the brief contact just now, the two of them had a good conversation, but it was more due to the atmosphere of the scene, and Seth was also there, which was helpful.

"You may be seated. Lan Li kindly extended the invitation, "Before I officially read the script, I want to talk to you about the script, or, more accurately, I want to talk to you about yourself." ”

Will paused slightly as he sat down, revealing a puzzled look.

Lan Li had to explain, "Seth told me that this script is based on your own experience. Will nodded in confirmation, "I believe that those details and plots of the script will be extremely realistic, and the whole process of facing cancer will be truly presented." But what I'm more curious about is what kind of person you were before I learned I had cancer. ”

The main line and core of the entire script of "I Fight Cancer" fall on the theme of "treating cancer", and all the branches and plots revolve around it.

This is the advantage of the script, but it is also the disadvantage of the script.

The advantage lies in authenticity and delicacy. From the moment I learned about the cancer, to the calm acceptance, to the treatment, and a series of mood changes after that, the state description of each plot is extremely realistic, without the slightest dramatization, and it completely presents Will's mental journey. It can be said that this is a script that can easily move the audience and awaken resonance.

The downside is the limitations of the character. Because all the focus is on cancer, and the impact of cancer on life is also actively shown, there is not much room for the script to create characters. Each character in the script is only set up basically, and each character extracts a more distinctive point in the character, and then carries it forward, relatively speaking, the role is relatively simple.

From a screenwriter and director's point of view, this has no impact. Because the dramatic tension of the work is enough, plus this is still a comedy work, adding some witty and humorous jokes, there is not much space left in a 100-minute movie, and a relatively concise script has a plus effect on the completion of the work.

This was the case with the "cancer-fighting me" in my previous life. The overall quality of the work is good, but for the actors, this is not good news, because the space left for the actors to play is very limited.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt's performance was really good, and several explosive scenes showed tension, which also earned him a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor in a Musical Comedy. But none of those scenes had anything to do with the characters themselves, but with cancer.

To put it simply, the audience sees the emotional ups and downs of a person facing cancer, and even loses control, but they can't see Adam himself, and this "person" can be replaced by anyone.

This also means that when an actor is performing, he lacks a foothold, and the performance can be wonderful, but in the end it is just a mirage and a castle in the air, and the role cannot withstand scrutiny.

Joseph's performance in "Fighting Cancer" has many commendable highlights, but from the standpoint of performance, in fact, his performance is not much different from the previous "500 Days with Shamo", it can almost be said that two similar characters have been copied and pasted into different works, the difference is only that the things encountered by the two characters are different-

Or it can be said that the same person experienced the story of a breakup and filmed "500 Days with Shamo", and then suffered from cancer and filmed "Me Fighting Cancer".

But Lan Li is not Joseph, and his way of acting and interpreting is completely different from Joseph. Lan Li does not plan to replicate Joseph's performance, let alone the performance of "500 Days with Sammo".

Lan Li clearly knows that different people and different personalities will have different treatments in the face of cancer, and the difference in performance under such emergencies is precisely the embodiment of the edges and corners of the personality.

Whether it is method performance or expressionist performance, it is very important to have a deep understanding of the character.

However, relatively speaking, the methodists will pay more attention. Because the expressionists focus more on the accuracy of acting, while the methodists pay more attention to the experience of the characters, it can be understood that the former focuses on themselves, and the latter focuses on the characters - such descriptions are somewhat generalized, but in the general direction, there is indeed such a tendency.

Although Will doesn't describe much in the script, he used himself as a blueprint when he wrote it. Therefore, if he wants to dig deeper into the character and give the entire gorgeous sky pavilion a stable foundation, he must understand Will more deeply.

It was Adam who had cancer, not Chu Jiashu who had cancer, and Lan Li who had cancer. It's Will Riesel's Adam.

"Me?" Will couldn't help laughing, this question was really a bit surprising, making him a little flustered, "I'm just a very ordinary person, without any characteristics. I'm standing right in front of your eyes right now, and you should be able to see it clearly. ”

Lan Li chuckled, "Will, relax, I'm not a psychiatrist, and I'm not your date, I just want to exchange scripts with you." The teasing words made Will relax a little, "I mean, if it's a character who doesn't have any features, then he can't be the protagonist of the script, can he? ”

Will was stunned, he could understand what Lan Li meant, but when he thought about it, he didn't conceive the character when he wrote the script "Me Who Fights Cancer". Because, all the plots come from personal experience, and after the secondary creation of the brain, the pen is like a god, and it is naturally written...... Wait a minute.

Thinking of this, Will only realized Lan Li's true meaning at this time. But what does he have to say? He doesn't know what he has to say? Is there anything worth paying attention to as the protagonist of a movie? And what is the character of his Adam?

Will was suddenly at a loss, because there was not much written about this in the script, and on the whole, Adam was a peaceful person who insisted on not giving up in the face of difficult situations and always remained positive and optimistic......

Will suddenly realizes that Adam is indeed a character without edges. With such an ordinary character as the male lead, is anyone willing to go into the cinema to watch it?

This made Will stunned - although he was a screenwriter and had been writing scripts, he had always been active in TV dramas and broadcasting, and "I Fought Cancer" was just his first film script. Will's self-confidence began to plummet.

Lan Li didn't know that in just a few seconds, Will's mind was already full of life, and he further explained, "I mean, what you like to do, except for writing. ”
