It may be hard to believe it, but the truth is that movie sets look more or less stupid, not specifically those scenes that can only be perfected by computer special effects in later stages, even ordinary performance scenes-

One or more actors are surrounded by the entire camera crew, entering the state of another character, showing the story of another world, immersed in their own emotions such as joy, sadness, joy, pain, etc., and fully presenting the state of the story.

But the point is that all the crew members are in a real-world environment, haunted by cameras, tracks, microphones, and other filming equipment, which also forces them to detach themselves from the world of the script, and clearly understand that this is a "performance", or that it is a false state, which naturally creates a gap between reality and illusion.

The bigger the drop, the more stupid it feels, especially for popcorn visual effects blockbusters where you have to perform in front of the air, and that's exactly what it feels like when the crew is watching the filming process.

It's like the movie "Truman's World": everyone knows that all this is false, except for Truman. This creates a sense of disparity, a sense of God's perspective that can often lead to a unique sense of stupidity at the beginning.

This is the general reaction of normal people, and it is also the normal reaction that every ordinary worker who enters the Hollywood film industry must overcome:

They have to convince themselves to stay focused, or maybe they get used to it, otherwise the work on the set will not work.

But Chen Zihao and Melanie are not professionals, they are just the occasional cameo melon-eating crowd, standing in the crowd of a bunch of staff at this time, surrounded by countless shooting equipment, the whole atmosphere is emphasizing: this is the shooting scene, this is fake!

It feels like an inferior version of the magic revealed, not only is there no mystery at all, but the truth is thrown out in a clumsy way, and there is no gimmick or texture in the revelation, which makes people can't bear to look at it directly.

Under such circumstances, seeing that Lan Li and Bryce were still seriously performing sad and heavy expressions, Melanie really couldn't help but burst into laughter: it's really stupid!

She didn't mean it, she really didn't mean it - she knew it was a movie set, everyone was working hard, definitely not kidding, but the humble picture in front of her was really hard to keep focusing, and she felt like her willpower had reached its limit.

However, all the staff at the scene were staring with bated breath and a focused expression, which made Melanie a little isolated, and she could only look for Chen Zihao for help.

Raising her head, Melanie saw that Chen Zihao's eyes also showed a look of surprise and surprise, and a shallow smile was already on the corner of her mouth, which made Melanie immediately cheerful, and pushed her elbow against Chen Zihao's arm, holding back her smile, and said silently with her eyes: This scene is really funny!

Chen Zihao also nodded in agreement, but unlike Melanie, he didn't want to miss the opportunity to watch Lan Li's performance at such a close distance, although the scene was indeed very funny, his attention still stayed on Lan Li's body, exploring and searching for it on the monitor screen - he didn't know what he was looking for, but subconsciously felt that this should be the right thing to do.

Through the photographer's lens, Chen Zihao's attention gradually focused on Lan Li's eyes and expressions, and those simple and even absurd scenes became taken for granted, because all his senses were focused on Lan Li's body, and things gradually began to become subtle.

"Look!" Chen Zihao didn't say anything, but raised his chin, gestured to the eyes on the monitor screen, and then remained quiet.

Melanie still couldn't get rid of the smile in her mind, but she also knew that the opportunity was rare, so she still turned her eyes to the TV screen, and then she heard Chen Zihao's voice come low again, "Look." ”

What to see?

Melanie's eyes still didn't leave the monitor screen, but all her attention was focused on the wrist faucet set, she was really too scene-stealing to get rid of it, and then looked at the sadness that Lan Li and Bryce revealed, and that kind of joy made her never be able to enter the play-

It's as if Lan Li is holding a rubber hood and grieving. That's not sadness, that's neurosis.

But with Chen Zihao's voice, Melanie gradually noticed: noticed those details, because all the focus of the whole picture was focused on Lan Li and Bryce, and she couldn't ignore those details, so she naturally entered the field of vision.

His right hand lightly and gently touched the long neck of the brachiosaurus, and the careful movement seemed to be worried that his touch would alarm the injured creatures, and even his eyes softened, and the focused and devoted gaze fell on its body gently, revealing a trace of grief and heaviness, and then it was fleeting, hiding all the pain, and the eyebrows became resolute again, but still did not dare to increase the movement, lest he disturb its rest.

Yes, Melanie still can't ignore the lethality of the rubber hood, but she can capture the real emotion in those eyes and that face.

Even if it was a rag doll, even if it was a rubber hood, his emotions were real. Just as many people can't understand that dogs or cats are family, there are also people who can't understand that their toys are part of their memories, no matter what the carrier is, but it is certain that the weight of that true feeling is the same and enough to move everyone.

It's like "Air Doll Love", where Ryan Gosling's character treats an air doll as his lover, not because he's crazy, but because he uses his own methods to face the world. I don't understand, but it doesn't mean that I have the qualifications to ridicule or despise.

Melanie's smile stayed at the corner of her mouth, and finally slowly disappeared, her gaze could not take off Lan Li's face, that calm face hid all emotions, there was no grief or sadness, only the heaviness that was faintly revealed, but the gentle movements of his hands told too much.

He gently soothed the brachiosaurus's injuries like this, as if he used the warmth of his palm to alleviate the pain of those wounds, his lowered eyes couldn't capture the emotions in his eyes, but the faint struggle between his eyebrows couldn't help but make people start to worry-

In the face of pain and life and death, his almost numb forbearance revealed the softness in his heart, and only the soul that had truly experienced life and death could read the lightness after the heaviness to the extreme, and even a breath was worried about becoming harmful.

Melanie's chest was slightly stuffy, not too obvious and not too painful, but she always wanted to exhale that turbid breath, and then a faint sadness lingered in her fingertips, and that sincere and heavy emotion broke the absurdity of the scene, and gently fell on Melanie's shoulder.

As a layman, standing outside the crew, wandering outside the performance, Melanie didn't understand what was going on at all, but she was able to capture the most sincere and sincere emotions, through the camera, breaking the shackles, ignoring the crew, and just like that, it was transmitted to her chest, and then there was a slight bitterness on the tip of her tongue:

It's not the power of cinema, it's the power of acting.

Only when you really look at it up close can you understand the purity and power of that power, and only then can you understand the fatal attraction of that power.

Owen gently stroked/touched the long neck of the brachiosaurus, turned his head slightly sideways to look at the eyes of the brachiosaurus, did not speak, and did not have any expression, just silently used his movements and body temperature to make the brachiosaurus feel a trace of warmth, but the pain of the brachiosaurus was transmitted without reservation, which made Owen's upper body slightly closer, and said softly, "It's about to end." It's okay, it's going to be over. ”

The whispers were almost inaudible, but they captured the fragility of the bruises all over the body.

It's almost over.

It's not a consolation, it's a relief, and that's because Owen knows better than anyone that the torment of pain is far more terrible than death, and that the pain of dying is enough to tear the soul apart, as is the case with any living being, so the best consolation at the last moment is not "it's okay", not "everything will be fine", but "it's about to end".

Behind the simple single sentence, there is too much heaviness revealed.

Claire also stepped out of the passenger seat, full of confusion and doubt, her eyes fell first on the Brachiosaurus, and then on Owen - she could feel Owen's suppressed emotions beneath the surface, not turbulent, just heavy, such a scene was really, really too familiar, but she never really felt it, and then her eyes fell on the dying Brachiosaurus again.

She could feel the connection between Owen and Brachiosaurus, but she couldn't say why, she could only approach carefully step by step, lest her recklessness break the balance here, and then she saw the tenderness in Owen's eyes, gently caressing/touching Brachiosaurus's head and neck, that gentle hand movement was like caring for a newborn baby, and the holy light in the depths of her eyes was extremely focused, and she was concentrating on escorting Brachiosaurus on its last journey.

Claire seemed to understand something.
