The fifty-seventh episode of the characters who can't be played

Peng Yichen didn't push back, and walked to the open space on the side of the box.

The body leaned forward slightly, the hands were naturally crossed forward, the shoulders were slightly shaken, the waist and back suddenly shrank down by half an inch, and the originally straight and sunny temperament suddenly became low and obscene.

He took a few trembling steps, pinching his nose with his hand and blowing his nose. Then he pretended to wipe it a few times on his body and continued to walk slowly.

After the performance, everyone in the audience fell silent, and no one knew what to say about Peng Yichen's performance.

It's a very simple action, no lines, no plot, and even no expression on his face, but everyone can see that this is an ordinary low-level old man who can be seen all over China.

When Peng Yichen performed, he completely changed his body shape, but on the surface, he didn't seem to have any tension, and he was in a very relaxed state, which made people feel extremely natural when they looked at it.

But in every detail of his actions, he is showing the unique personal characteristics of this old man.

A trembling step indicates that his legs and feet are not good;

Walking with his head down, not daring to look at the road ahead, shows that he is cautious and submissive;

The action of blowing the nose is particularly forceful, indicating that it is the old rhinitis that has been committed for many years;

Wiping off his nose shows that his personal cultivation and quality are low, and his living state is poor after all.

"Well, it's really very different from the way we perform......"

Several old actors were talking to each other, and they found that Peng Yichen's performance was indeed not the same way as Huaxia now.

Although the movements of the performance are almost hot, the relaxed and natural state is very attractive.

"Oh, that's right. ”

Zhao Jianguo pondered carefully for a while, and probably understood Peng Yichen's performance method.

He also stood up, walked to Peng Yichen's side, and said with a smile: "Look, how about I act like this?"

As he spoke, he closed his eyes and opened them suddenly, and in an instant all the muscles on his face wrinkled together, and his face looked very stiff.

A face that doesn't look too old makes people look old and feel old.

He also trembled and walked forward, but his speed was faster than Peng Yichen, and every time he took a step forward, his face twitched, as if he was enduring this great pain.

After taking a few steps, he stopped, his head raised slightly, as if he was about to sneeze, but he couldn't. Let the onlookers feel sorry for him.

In the end, the sneeze still didn't come out, and I rubbed my nose vigorously with my hands, but it was still not enjoyable, so I simply blew my nose with my hands.

After blowing his nose, he also took a closer look at the things on his hands, and then wiped the snot on his hands with a lot of strength.

After the performance, everyone couldn't help but applaud.

"Okay, that's a great show. ”

"But why, I feel like this is more like an elderly version of Teacher Zhao?"

The discussion of the actors below hit the nail on the head.

Is Zhao Jianguo's performance good?

Of course, it's good, he has more detailed movements, his expressions and body are more closely linked, and every rhythm in the performance process is wonderful.

But he still can't get rid of the inherent problem of drama actors, that is, the actor's personal shaping of the role overrides the role itself.

To put it bluntly, Peng Yichen plays an old man anywhere in China, and Zhao Jianguo plays what Zhao Jianguo looks like when he is old, and his personal charm overwhelms the characters performed.

The so-called expressionism requires actors to recreate the role and control the performance of the character with their own will.

This type of performance is very suitable for dramas and stage plays, and it is also very suitable for actors with great personal charm.

Because both of them hope to attract the audience's attention at the first moment of the performance, and after hooking the audience's attention with their own charm, they can then use their own performances to bring the audience into the identity of the characters in the plot.

It's a pity that film is the most realistic fictional art, and expressionism and film are inherently compatible.

On earth, the reason why Embodiment and Method are ultimately more influential than Expressionism is because Embodiment and Method are the most suitable for film.

And film is an art form with the strongest communication efficiency.

So many people on the planet have heard of Stani Flavsky, the founder of Experientialism, but a few people know what Expressionism is.

But in Lanxing, the actors have no systematic theories to support the experiential and methodological schools, and they all rely on their own figurative understanding.

The performance effect of ordinary actors here is, of course, not as natural as that of actors who have been trained by professional experience and methodology like Peng Yichen.

But this does not mean that Expressionism is weaker than Experientialism and Methodism.

No matter what kind of performance, as long as you can go to the extreme, you can reach the peak of performance. And the real top actors are actually a mixture of expressionism, experience, and methodology.

Zhao Jianguo was addicted to playing, and pulled Peng Yichen to perform several characters in a row.

Workers, white-collar workers, teachers, farmers.

The performance of the two people is natural and vivid, and the other is full of charm.

Although Peng Yichen's skills are definitely not comparable to Zhao Jianguo, his performance is amazing enough.

You must know that he is only 21 years old, and he is still a child at all.

After playing five or six various characters.

Zhao Jianguo also enjoyed acting, and proposed that the two of them finish playing the last character and end this acting competition.

He chose to play a neurotic murderer this time.

Fierce eyes, explosive power to choose people at any time, and be alert to all the surrounding turmoil at any time.

Zhao Jianguo completely gave his style to this murderer, which is a must.

Peng Yichen came up and tried to perform a few times, his looks, movements, and expressions were all very good, but he always didn't feel that this was a murderer without humanity.

acted back and forth, and in the eyes of everyone at the scene, he didn't want to be a neurotic murderer at all, but just like an ordinary person who accidentally broke the law and killed someone.

After trying a few times and still didn't work, Peng Yichen stopped acting, waved his hand, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I haven't done this kung fu yet, so I won't be ugly." Or Mr. Zhao is more powerful. ”

With that, he walked back to the table, unwilling to try again.

"You can't act, it's not because you haven't done kung fu, it's because of psychological problems. Zhao Jianguo also sat in his position, looked at Peng Yichen and said.

"How?"

Peng Yichen spent most of his last life playing tricks, and the roles he can play are relatively simple. Even if he plays a negative role, he is the kind of stupid and rough black type, and rarely plays this kind of role with a dark heart.

Zhao Jianguo said with a smile: "Because you have a very strong sense of justice in your heart, you dare not face the dark side of your heart." ”

"Wine and wealth, laziness and gambling, everyone has a dark side. ”

Zhao Jianguo explained while drinking.

"For example, if you are asked to play a desperate coward, but you never look down on this kind of coward in your heart, and never think that you will be desperate, how can you act like that?"

"But everyone has setbacks, there will be times when you are timid, desperate and cowardly thoughts, maybe only exist in your mind for a moment. But as long as you seriously seek out and face the negative and dark emotions in your heart, you can still guide yourself to perform. ”

I don't know if the older generation of actors are good teachers, Zhao Jianguo can't stop as soon as he says it.

"As a human being, you need to restrain your negative emotions. But acting, not life, you have to convince yourself to give up resistance in order to let go of yourself and show these things. The so-called dark side is actually not terrible, as long as you can control your negative emotions, your acting skills will be greatly improved, otherwise you can only stay at the current level forever. ”

Peng Yichen didn't seem to understand it, what Zhao Jianguo said was no longer the scope of acting on the surface.

It's a question of how an actor can improve the depth of his performance through the accumulation of psychology, behavior, sociology, etc., in order to create a character.

"Then when you are a great man like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, will you also use these negative emotions?" Peng Yichen asked suspiciously.

Of course, no character can have only one side, because everyone has a variety of desires, and Emperor Wu of Han is a great king, but at the same time he has character flaws such as possessiveness, suspicion, and fickleness. Only when his light and dark aspects are shown through performance can you be considered a foothold. ”

"How to grasp the balance between darkness and light, and finely grasp the light side of the character a little more, or a little more dark side, is a compulsory course for top actors. ”

Zhao Jianguo seemed to be tired of talking, slowed down for a moment, patted Peng Yichen's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Chenzi, you have great potential, you can look down on you." In the future, you can ask me any questions about the performance, and I will pay you as much as I want. ”

"Thank you, thank you, Mr. Zhao. Peng Yichen thanked again and again.

Zhao Jianguo deliberately gave him a chance to show his acting skills in front of the crew, how could he not see that he was still so concerned about the improvement of his acting skills.

This made Peng Yichen's heart warm.

There may be many unspoken rules and dark sides in the film industry, but there are also many filmmakers like Zhao Jianguo and Wu Tianliang who are really good at movies and support the continuous growth of newcomers.

It is precisely because of the existence of these filmmakers that Chinese films are thriving and prosperous.

As for Zhao Jianguo's excavation and grasp of the light and dark aspects of the characters, Peng Yichen woke up at once, and there was an actor in his previous life who excavated and performed the dark side of the characters the most profoundly.

He only starred in five films in his lifetime, but each one was a classic, he taught Hollywood academics how to interpret the dark side of characters with his stunning performances, and he was Merrill Streep's beloved, a great actor - John Keisel.
