Lan Li knew what Seth was talking about in this movie, "I Fight Cancer (50/50)". Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

To be precise, the translated name of this movie is actually not accurate, it should be called "five five open", or "half the chance".

When the name of the movie was originally formulated, "I have cancer" was chosen, but later because the title had negative words such as cancer, which did not match the style and tone of the movie, it was changed to "live with it", and finally evolved into the name at the time of release, "50/50".

Therefore, the translation of the name "I am fighting cancer" actually goes against the intention of the crew itself. However, this still does not affect Lan Li's liking of this movie.

As Seth said, the film focuses on cancer from a special perspective, and since the story is adapted by the screenwriter from his own real experiences, the script is extraordinarily realistic and extraordinarily detailed.

Although cancer is no longer a terminal disease under the current medical conditions, it is still one of the most difficult diseases to cure.

Just as in the face of difficulties, in the face of choices, in the face of death, everyone has the right to choose their own attitude, anger, sadness, pain, struggle, despair. And the male protagonist of "I Fight Cancer", Adam, he chose to be strong and optimistic.

Adam is not a robot, he also has his own emotions. He will be dazed, he will be angry, he will be depressed, he will be sad, he will be vulnerable, and he will also face the threat of death in the face of the blow of cancer. It's just that he chose to be brave.

In his last life, when Lan Li watched this movie for the first time, he hated it.

Because, at least Adam still has the opportunity to fight, and he has been deprived of the right to fight, because Adam reflects all his shortcomings, cowardice, timidity, fear, hesitation, because Adam is finally cured, like a fairy tale, he has overcome cancer, but he is still trapped in the hospital bed.

And because he knew better than anyone how precious Adam's courage was and how incredible Adam's strength was, but he couldn't do it himself.

The film projects too many personal emotions, and it is not an easy task to look at it objectively.

Later, after a long time, Lan Li finally mustered up the courage again and watched this movie. This time, he was deeply in love with it. Because, he saw hope, but also saw life.

Life is always full of tribulations, cancer is just one of them, many times, people do not have the right to choose the form of tribulation, but at least, people have the right to choose their own posture and their own way of life.

Fate is an interesting thing.

Lan Li expressed regret for missing the "evil boss" and missing the opportunity to participate in a comedy movie, which also became an opportunity for Andy to agree to Seth's request for an emergency, and then he found the opportunity to perform comedy again in another way, and it was a project tailored for him.

Even Andy, even Seth, even Lan Li himself, couldn't have expected this scene to come.

Seth was only halfway through the introduction, and Lan Li had already reacted, and he knew that "I who fought cancer" came to him in this reincarnation way.

In this movie, Lan Li saw too many shadows of déjà vu, he saw himself, he saw Heather and the children at Mount Sinai Hospital, and he also saw the motivation to support him to keep going, it was family, love, and friendship. James McAvoy actively missed it, Joseph Gordon Levitt passively missed it, but Lan Li definitely didn't miss it.

In this script, Adam reflects Will Riesel's shadow, but in Lan Li's eyes, Adam reflects himself. To be more precise, Lan Li is going to play the role of himself in the previous life, Chu Jiashu.

Seth's babbling voice was still heard in his ears, but Lan Li's emotions were immersed in his own world, and he couldn't help but start to fluctuate.

Somewhat excited, because it was a return to himself, and he, like Will, had the opportunity to share his story with the audience, and a little nervous because he was going to expose himself in front of the camera, his former self.

Some were expecting because he would go to the extreme on the path of methodist acting, which was in tandem with the "detached" expressists, and some was apprehensive because he was worried that he was confusing the difference between Adam, Chu Jiashu, Will and Lan Li.

The emotions were so turbulent that my fingertips couldn't help but tremble slightly. Lan Li sat up straight, found a box of cigarettes under the coffee table, took out one, held it to the corner of his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and still didn't light it after all, but just let the faint smell of tobacco entangle around his fingertips, and the whole person settled down a little.

"Seth, I have a question. You're telling a story, but you don't tell much about the characters. I'm just not sure, what kind of character is this?"

Lan Li forced himself to calm down and said half-jokingly.

Seth was caught off guard by this question, as a screenwriter, his talent was recognized, but as an actor, he only had comedy talent and lacked the depth of acting. So, Seth really didn't know how to answer for a moment, "Well, I'm not sure, but maybe you can meet Will." ”

Under the crisis, Seth can only come up with such a strategy.

But after saying it, Seth also realized that this sentence was not appropriate, and quickly added and explained, "I mean, this is a very special character, although Will has cast a lot of his own shadow on the character, but he has done artistic processing and created a new character, and this part will be handed over to you, and you will give the character vitality." ”

Seth's brains were finally connected, "Give it to an actor like you." You know, it's up to you to set the tone of the whole movie, I'm just in charge of being funny on the side, and the steering wheel, accelerator and brakes are all under your control. We hope it's a hopeful story, but how you play it out will depend on how you perform it!"

I have to say that Seth's quickness is really good, and he forced the topic back, didn't say anything, but secretly pursued Lan Li, which made Lan Li smile.

Lan Li knew the character of Adam better than anyone.

Adam had his own grief and struggles, but a touch of grief never really prevailed, let alone broke him. Beneath the strong and optimistic exterior, sensitive and fragile, delicate and warm, bright and powerful, that kind of perseverance and perseverance, throughout the whole process, has become the greatest motivation for his rebirth.

As Seth said, Adam sets the tone of the entire film, and he is the soul who deserves it.

For Adam, Lan Li can be said to know everything well, and even he is worried that he is too clear that he confuses the difference between Adam and Chu Jiashu, and crosses the line between Chu Jiashu and Lan Li, and then can't extricate himself, and then destroys the tone and rhythm of the movie itself, causing a disaster.

It's himself, but it's not him.

This is a new challenge, a challenge to compete with oneself, a challenge that is not inferior to "detachment", but completely different.

Seth waited for a while, didn't hear Lan Li's answer, and couldn't help but start to feel worried, and hurriedly said, "Lan Li, I'm serious. The whole crew was looking forward to you, and I know that we missed you in the preparation stage and chose other actors, which led to the current situation, and now it sounds like all the words are like quibbles. But the truth is, I really, really, really hope that you can star in this production. ”

Without rhetoric, Seth's words became simple, but the sincerity between the words was not discounted in the slightest.

The corners of Lan Li's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, "Okay, I'm willing to act." ”

Lan Li was sure that he would not refuse the proposal.

Even if he knows that the box office performance of this film is destined to be difficult to make a breakthrough, at most it will achieve a box office of about 30 million in North America like "500 Days with Sammo"; even if he knows that it is difficult for the film to go further in the awards season prospects, it is estimated that it will show its face at the Golden Globe Awards; even if he knows, the topical effect of this movie cannot be compared to "buried alive" or "love is crazy".

However, he still will not refuse.

“…… Uh, good?" Since Lan Li agreed so quickly, and so neatly, Seth choked up and frowned, and his first reaction was that Lan Li was joking, "Are you sure? You don't need to think about it again? You know, there are five days before the crew starts filming, and you can at least have, uh, I'm not sure, forty-eight hours? Seventy-two hours? Think again." ”

Lan Li understood that he still had time and space to think, but he didn't need to.

"Do you need me to think about it again?" Lan Li said with a smile and a rhetorical question.

"No, no, no. Seston's panic, "Of course not!" Seth quickly emphasized, "Very good, you agreed to star! Very good, everything is fine! I'll call your agent right now to discuss the contract." We're going to shoot this in Seattle, when can you come over?"

Seth took a big breath, his whole face wrinkled, and he shook his head, "No, no, I'll discuss this information with your agent." All you need to do is, get some rest, yes, get some rest! We're going to do it! You're going to be in this production! It's good, it's perfect! It's great!"

As he spoke, Seth couldn't help but scream, "Jesus Christ, I really can't believe it, you really agreed to act! You're my superhero. ”

The excitement that could not be concealed was also infected by Lan Li through the phone, and the smile on the corner of his mouth also rose.

The significance of this movie to Seth is extraordinary, and Seth's excitement and joy at the moment is understandable. You can feel it, and the friendship between him and Will is indeed touching.

Seth screamed for a while before gasping for air, "I'm sorry...... Phew, sorry, there's one more thing I forgot to tell you, and I hope you won't regret your decision when you hear it. ”
