2171 Nonsense

"......" lame man, silent.

"......" man with a big tongue, silent.

"......" Eggs, silence.

The whole topic has become more and more ridiculous, and the situation of opening one's eyes and talking nonsense has become out of control, so what should we do next? Shouldn't the director stop filming? Will Oggs just let them continue to talk nonsense? How will this scene end?

Whisshaw was struggling to hold back his laughter now, he had to lower his eyelids, avoid the eyes and expressions of John and Lan Li, and most importantly hide his eyes, otherwise he would be on the verge of laughing at any time: God, what did he do wrong, and why did he test him so much?

The only person on the scene who was calm and calm should be David - or Lan Li.

David closed his mouth slightly, calmly shifted his gaze, and looked around the scene for a week, smashing his mouth, the dazed and confused gaze was still wandering out, as if none of the emotions just now had happened, is this heartless or innocent?

David looked around complacently, then retracted his gaze and landed on the cocktail in front of him, and without warning, he was distracted again, his focus and focus distracted, as if he were studying how the color of the cocktail was made, and then said abruptly, "There was a new person moving in yesterday." ”

There was no foreshadowing, no transition, and even no cohesion, so he jumped from one topic to another, too jerky and too stiff, so that people were full of question marks, and they couldn't help but raise their eyes and look at David, but David still didn't wake up with his eyes, "Did you see it?"

"Yes, I saw it. The answer was the big-tongued man, and the lame man was stunned as he sat next to him—wait, what about all that nonsense? there was no follow-up? there was no tail?

David looked at the lame man and said with a sincere face, "I feel as if I see a lame woman." ”

The lame man straightened his spine slightly, trying to pull himself together, but then he drooped down again, and the mood fell together in a particularly palpable way—it seemed a little strange at first, but it was not strange to follow the conversation that followed," she just sprained her ankle. The lame man showed a regretful expression and pursed the corners of his lips, "In a few days, she will be back to normal." ”

"Oh. What a pity. David said regretfully, but the words did not have much regret, and the calm tone said words that did not have any color at all - it actually bred a little robotic sense of déjà vu.

Then, the big-tongued man sitting next to him didn't speak, just kept nodding his head slightly, and after a long time, he said slowly, "It's a pity, it's true." ”

Silent.

Or silence.

According to the shooting plan, the siren should sound in the hotel at this time, indicating that the time for the hunt is coming, interrupting the conversation of the three people, but there seems to be a problem with the props team, and the siren does not sound on time, which creates silence;

The embarrassment in the silence deliberately broke the narrative rhythm and created contrasts, and the previous conversations began to regurgitate, and the mockery and banter released invisibly were slowly spreading, not to mention, the three of them performed in a somewhat different way.

The lame man quieted down, holding his cocktail, his eyes lowered and he didn't know what he was thinking, and the man with the big tongue was pure in a daze, his "confused" expression did not have any superfluous emotions, as if his thoughts had been put on wings, and he was so distracted.

As for David, his eyes were slightly stunned, but the rest of his eyes were moving slowly and quietly, because the speed of movement was too slow, it was almost impossible to distinguish, but the subtle changes could still convey emotions, and people couldn't help but guess: what he was observing and thinking, obviously he didn't seem to be thinking about anything, but his eyes were completely different from the man with a big tongue.

It was also silent, but the emotions that were slowly surging between the three men were rubbing sparks.

"Have you ever met a woman with a big tongue before?" and without warning—and again—David spoke again to break the silence and throw out an inexplicable topic.

The big-tongued man woke up like a dream, "Huh?" blurted out a question, raising his gaze to look at David, "No, no. But I don't think that's the problem. ”

What's the problem?

The big-tongued man didn't continue, but asked rhetorically, "What about you?"

“…… No. The word on his mouth was no, but in fact, the confusion in his eyes was "I don't know", and David's words and deeds conveyed more content.

"Beep!"

The siren finally came belatedly and very abruptly, startling everyone present, and Ogles immediately shouted "card" to interrupt the shooting.

Because the siren sounded too suddenly, the scene was a little frightened, so that everyone temporarily forgot the scene just now, and after the frightened calves, they slowly came back to their senses, and the absurd joy came to their faces, and then the corners of the mouths of the staff on the scene couldn't help but rise slightly.

Where does the joy come from?

In fact, it is very simple, it is to talk nonsense in a serious way, and to say those absurd and even horrible things in a scientific tone, which creates a black humor of ridicule and banter, but Ogles goes a step further: why do they perform like this?

In the first half, Lan Li analyzes the matter of "human beings transforming into animals" from a scientific point of view, and rises to the level of soul and reincarnation, which is obviously complaining about the absurdity of the story background created by Eugels, depriving individuals of their right to exist, and then treating life as an object that can be manipulated at will - in other words, that is, a few people play God to decide the life and death and freedom of the majority, does this story sound familiar?

A hint: World War II.

Originally, David and the three were just serious discussions, and Auggs's intention was to derive people's reflections on the background of the story through this discussion, but the depth did not reach such a level; now, guided by "David's" bit of nonsense, black humor has added more layers.

In the second half, Lan Li extends the target from the lame man to the man with the big tongue, which, in Ogels's view, is actually a move to add to the snake.

Ogles wanted to convey the idea that in the context of the film, those who are flawed are considered inferior, even if they are sick or disabled or obese, and then they are ostracized, and the lame man can only be paired with the lame woman.

It's obviously a very, very cold-blooded and terrifying notion.

It was enough to lift the lame man with a little bit, but if it was to be directed further to the man with the big tongue, it would seem to be too forceful, as if the whole idea was forced to be stuffed into the audience—Odds didn't like it, but Lan Li's performance in the second half was very interesting.

John Reilly says that his biggest problem may not be a big tongue, suggesting that he has something else wrong, and then throws the problem in reverse to Lan Li, whether it is intentional or unintentional, and the focus is on Lan Li's reaction: words and deeds.

What does this mean?

This means that David doesn't know what he's looking for, and if he's looking for a partner, then he's supposed to be looking for a homebody like himself like "a lame man VS a lame woman", but if it's looking for love, shouldn't it be a heart-to-heart seal that breaks prejudice and shackles? Or maybe David can't define love completely clearly - after all, in the context of the story, love has been reduced to a formula.

That is, math problems.

Mathematics is rational, and love is emotional, these are two completely different things, but now they are limited by rigid rules, so David is confused.

From the first scene, David's confusion and sluggishness run through all of Lan Li's performances, which also gives the characters more texture - why is it confused? What characteristics does sluggishness represent? How much did the past story and the social system affect David?

These questions can be slowly extended as the story progresses, and then the breadth, depth, and breadth of the story can be invisibly increased - just for those who are willing to think and think deeply.

From such an angle, the contradiction created by Lan Li's eyes and words can be called a stroke of genius, which instantly lit up the whole scene.

Now, Eggs is in a dilemma: what should he do? He likes some parts and hates others, so what should he choose?

Oulgels is looking at the whole scene, and the more he thinks about it, the more excited he is - he likes Lan Li's performance, although he doesn't want to admit it, but the fact is that Lan Li gives the character more possibilities, some positive and some negative, but at least he can explore more possibilities through Lan Li's performance, which is also the highest goal that the "Lobster" movie hopes to achieve.

Lan Li is helping him make it happen.

But the rest of the staff outside of Ogles were laughing maniacally, especially Whisshaw.

Poor Ben Whisshaw hugged his stomach, couldn't make any sound, burst into laughter silently, his abdominal muscles were so stiff that he began to feel a dull pain, he looked at Lan Li and John who were indifferent in front of him, and shook his head again and again, "...... You guys...... Not kind. "Two people join forces to pit him!

Lan Li and John, who were the culprits, were indifferent, and even exchanged glances, their faces were full of calmness, and Lan Li said calmly, "We're just doing our job." ”

"Is this nonsense?" Whisshaw wiped his moist eyes, his facial muscles stiffened because he was laughing too happily, and it was really hard to hold back a smile during the performance, please save the child.

In the face of Whisshaw's accusation, John and Lan Li exchanged glances, and then both smiled, John said lightly, "I can't deny it. ”

Actually...... Whishaw was stunned.
