Chapter 64: Two Theories
As an ordinary movie fan, I really don't like Wang Jiawei, at most I appreciate it, appreciate his movies, and appreciate his artistic talent.
As a director, Wang Jiawei is undoubtedly successful, the director should bear the greatest responsibility for the quality of a movie, and the actor is just a pawn under the director.
But as a human being, Lao Wang probably failed!
Don't say anything else, let's talk about Guan Shuyi, she is the heroine of "Happy Spring", but when cutting the film, Wang Jiawei felt that it was not to his liking, so he simply cut all the scenes of Guan Shuyi...
Nothing left, cut it all!
Hehe, in 1997, Guan Shuyi accompanied Wang Jiawei to spend countless boring days and nights in Buenos Aires, but she was deprived of the title of heroine, and the scenes were also deleted...
It's the same with the vegetable buying wife, the crew of "East Evil and West Poison" has a vegetable buying wife, but as a result, her roles have all been deleted...
Andy Lau, "The True Story of A Fei" filmed in the Kowloon Walled City for three months, and every day he had to act in a place full of mice, Andy was very afraid of mice, jumping around every day to avoid mice, and later "The True Story of A Fei" was released, and all the scenes filmed in the Kowloon Walled City were cut...
Zhang Guorong, during the filming of "Happy Spring", his brother was infected with amoebic virus and almost died in Argentina, and at the same time expressed his willingness to prepare for the 97 concert several times, Wang Jiawei ignored it, by the way, it was originally scheduled that the male number one was his brother, but as a result, a lot of his scenes were cut, and Liang Chaowei became the male number one...
Ask these actors, do you want to kill him?
"It seems that you are also in your early forties, and in the past forty years, there have always been some things that you don't want to mention again, or some people you don't want to see again, and some people have been sorry for you, maybe you thought about killing them, but you don't dare. Ha, or maybe you don't think it's worth it, but it's easy to kill someone. I have a friend, his martial arts are very good, but life has been a bit difficult lately, as long as you give him a little silver tael, he will definitely be able to help you kill that person, you just think about it. ”
This line is probably a true portrayal of Wang Jiawei by many people!
Everyone knows that Director Wang doesn't have a script, in fact, every time Director Wang starts filming, he will have a small note for the actors, write words like "in the house, flirt", and then watch the actors play.
Director Wang said that only Liang Chaowei could understand his keywords, so Liang read Director Wang's note on the set, and then explained it to the other actors...
However, "2046" didn't work, because after three months of filming, Liang Chaowei didn't know what he was playing...
Takuya Kimura is even more confused...
When he was filming at RB, the first thing he did was to analyze the script, and then he could grasp the image of the character, enter the role, and then interpret it accurately...
"2046" has no script!
Forget it, the key Wang Jiawei can't explain what he wants to shoot, every time Kimura asks him how he should act, he says, 'Whatever', and when it's time to shoot, he keeps NG!
He has been in Shanghai for half a year, and Neon's work has been squeezed into a mountain...
"It's not that I don't give a schedule, the three-month schedule I said at the beginning is now half a year, I have a job, and I can't accompany you to spend this time!"
Kimura and his agent approached Chen Hye-jung, the producer of "2046", hoping to urge...
Hehe, think too much.
A few years ago, Wang Jiawei was a hooligan, and there were still people in charge, but now, I think too much!
Most of the actors who work with him have a trembling M mentality: Master, you play me, you play me, I'm good at it, I'm here for this, I can only go out and brag if you play me.
What do you think, "In the Mood for Love", Zhang Manyu filmed for fifteen months, and directly lost her husband - fifteen months, who can stand it?
Chen Huizhong flickered: "If you think so, "2046" has already received an invitation to next year's Cannes Film Festival, and when the time comes..."
"I have artistic pursuits, but I also have to eat!"
“… Wang Jiawei has always been like this when making movies, if you can't accept it, you shouldn't have auditioned in the first place. Peace, if you come, you should rest!"
“…”
Rest your horse nose...
Takuya Kimura didn't come to China to hide debts, he came to film!
He simply left the crew with his agent, and joined the Japanese drama "Good Luck" by the way!! 》…
……
Xing Zhigang left...
Or rather, the script told him to fuck off.
He went out with Rong Lan, and then met Cuihua who was holding the child, and then he was dumped...
'He is finally gone, taking away the last ambiguity in my heart...'
After the shooting, Chen Dong should also say goodbye...
Before leaving, he finally couldn't help asking: "Director, can I ask a question about the script?"
"You say. ”
"Does Xing Zhigang's character line have any effect?"
Yang Fan smiled and didn't answer directly, but said something that Chen Dong had never heard: "Dong Zai, you are a very good actor, and I probably know that you received Stanislavsky's film theory education, so when you are filming, you are used to bringing in roles, but there is more than one way to act, and there is more than one way to shoot movies, sometimes it is important to understand the script, but sometimes, the script is not so important!"
"Let me ask you a question, do you think that actors should not add too much personal creation, and just act according to the script?"
Chen Dong replied honestly: "Of course, the role of an actor is to highlight the role, and he must reduce his personal characteristics and serve the role..."
"Then let me tell you, the superstars of Hong Kong movies, they are filming scripts to serve them, and Hollywood is the same!"
Yang Fan studied acting in the United States in the early years, worked as a special actor in Hollywood for four years, and then returned to Hong Kong, started to do distribution, lost a lot, changed careers to become a photographer, and has a good relationship with many big names...
“… I'm not there yet..."
"So, you have to get used to it, every director has his own way. ”
……
Chen Dong is a very typical experiential school, and the acting education of the film school boils down to a few words: 'really listen, really see, and really feel', you have to bring yourself into the role!
Say an experiential boss, Sun Honglei!
The more famous story is that once in a drama, there was a scene to express the emotions of "an ordinary American family, when they suddenly have money one day, and the husband knows that the money is obtained by his wife selling her body", Sun Honglei really regarded himself as this husband, and as a result, he had a heart attack for this scene.
In those years, his plays were full of tension.
"Conquest", "Blade 1937"...
Performance, either can show strong dramatic tension or top actors, but what is more difficult is that when you need to relax, you can still be able to retract and release freely, and lift weights lightly.
Later, Sun Honglei met "Latent" and really promoted to the top actor...
Then do you say that Sun Honglei used an experiential approach when he played "Latent"?
I'm afraid of horror, isn't it?
However, director Yang Fan's sentence 'movies, sometimes the script is not so important'...
Seems to be hinting at something...
