Chapter 451: Old and Nowhere to Turn
Mark patted Javier on the shoulder and said, "Old Jia, you have become a god, and you are the only one who will be the Oscar next year." ”
Javier smiled: "It's all up to the director's guidance." ”
Mark said: "I don't have anything to teach you, it's all about my personal performance. He said to Blake, "I'm the real killer, why aren't you afraid of me." ”
Blake said: "What is there to be afraid of you pervert, at most you will be on me once, are you still willing to kill me?"
Mark said: "Of course I am reluctant, anyway, you don't have a boyfriend now, I can meet your needs." ”
Blake laughed, "I want to take a boy by the hand and go around the street, is that you?"
"We can book a restaurant and have a nice dinner," Mark said. ”
Blake said, "By the way, call Mason." ”
Mark said, "What's the point of calling this guy Mason? I'm sure he's got half as many girlfriends as I do." ”
Blake said, "Do you men only think with your lower body?"
Mark said: "If this is the case, why should you hide your desires? ”
"You're more annoying than you used to be," Blake said. ”
"That's the way men are, and as power and wealth grow, lust begins to grow," Mark said. ”
"What would you do if someone did this to Kayla?" Blake said. ”
Mark laughed dryly: "There is no comparison between this. ”
"To you, I'm just your collection, right?"
Mark said: "Life and work have been so hard, why should you live a limited life?"
Blake said, "Have you ever thought about my feelings?"
Mark said: "We are the first love, but I am a pervert in your mind, I will be sad, the woman I have had, in fact, is below average, I am a serious person about feelings." ”
Blake said: "Are you comparing Hugh Hefner to Trump?"
Mark said: "You have a prejudice against me, but in my mind, you are my first love, the most memorable first love, whether it is ugly when you wear braces, or now you are all kinds of charms, you will always be my first love." ”
Blake said: "I know your hypocrisy, but to hear you say that, I am happy in my heart. ”
Mark said, "Remember the first good thing we did in your room?" Mark took the opportunity to touch Blake's soft hand.
Blake suddenly opened his hand and said, "This is sexual harassment!"
Mark said: "You have become very boring, incomprehensible, I am most impressed by the fact that you pulled me into the room in front of Mason, you were a stunner at that time." ”
Blake said, "How should I act in a play for a while?"
Mark said: "Isn't it written in the script? I always encourage actors to improvise, every good actor has his own talent and way of acting, and I will not stifle the talent of actors." ”
Blake said, "Why don't you say you're lazy?"
Mark said: "I will only teach those little dragon sets and group actors, if I spend millions of actors to teach, it is not worth it." ”
"If you invite Tom Cruise and Harry Berry, there's no problem with that," Blake said. "These two are well-known and like to add drama to themselves, but often the director is not enough, and they will be pressed.
Mark said, "I'm in charge of my territory. ”
Blake said, "You really don't have any advice?"
Mark said: "It's very important to enter the play, Carly's husband is dead, the old lady is dead, she is very sad, but she doesn't want to die yet, in this case, when she meets a killer, of course she is helpless in her heart, she knows that she is in danger, but she doesn't want to give up hope." ”
Blake asked, "Did this Carly get killed?"
"It's an open-ended ending, let the audience imagine for themselves," Mark said. ”
Blake said: "She shouldn't be dead, right? Anton asked her to guess the coin, and she guessed correctly, so Anton, who was depressed, obeyed the traffic rules and hit the car, which is more in line with the theme of everything that has nothing to follow." ”
Mark said, "Act 126:" Anton pushed the door and left Carly's house, he looked at the leather shoes on the fallen leaves, and walked away silently. "Why did he look at leather shoes, it can be understood that he was a cleanliness addict to see if it was stained with Carly's blood. ”
Blake said: "God is mysterious, front and back shields, who can understand it?"
Mark said: "If you don't understand it, this is art, and I admire Woody Allen the most." ”
Blake said: "He's really a respected master of art films, when did you admire him? ”
Mark said: "What I admire is that he never lacks a beautiful female partner, and he can marry a wife who is thirty years younger than himself. ”
Blake was speechless.
Mark said proudly, "Yes, I still have a lot to learn from this master." ”
Blake gave him a middle finger up.
With Mark's guidance, Blake has been in the play a lot, at least the emotions are in place, of course, Mark also asked Javier to take it away, don't just care about having a good time, too much aura will hurt the newcomer.
But Blake's quality is not wrong, after all, to win the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress, you must have two hits, Anton and Carly This conversation is a bit ridiculous, he came to kill to fulfill his promise.
When he realizes that killing a completely harmless person is unconvincing, he asks Carly to flip a coin.
His sentence "The coin is the same way I came here!" sounds simple and funny, but if you chew it carefully, you will find that it is very flavorful and philosophical, and has the finishing touch, without this sentence, Anton is just a killer who is no different from an ordinary killer, but with this sentence, he becomes a killer with faith and style, a product of this wild and rankless land.
Javier found the flavor in it, and he praised it for comparison, and his understanding of this made him have a deeper understanding of the script, and when he played the role of Anton, he had a taste of form and spirit.
In terms of shooting, Mark did not use those fancy techniques, as much as possible to shoot realistically, a western shot is slow and empty, the characters in the lens move in an orderly manner, in the endless empty desert, under the scorching sun, this person is moving forward unhurriedly.
The picture is full of desolation, there is no excessive language, and there is no background music, only the action moves little by little in the shot. The slow-paced treatment is not sensational, but it gives the audience a sense of desolation and vicissitudes to the greatest extent, when there are two broken cars and a number of corpses in the film, the pace of the film is still slow, this slowness has no visual impact, but brings people the deepest horror.
Wally's shooting technique is very simple, using a documentary style similar to a documentary, in the era of impetuous commercial films flooding the screen, this kind of calm and classic lens and shooting technique is really commendable, omitting all embellishments, reflecting the mind, strength, values, rules and other things that reflect the hearts of the characters very well, therefore, the whole film at first glance is a flight, chase, killing, in fact, the inner sin and the desolation of the western United States are reflected long and impermeable, making people's hearts breathless.
Since the background of the film is around 1980, when the drug trade on the U.S.-Mexico border began to run rampant, Mark set the background color of the film to a yellowed main color, which added a sense of nostalgia and vicissitudes to the film. The slow-paced processing also increases the psychological activity of the characters.
In addition, although it belongs to the category of western films, the film is also full of killing and blood, but there are no gunfights and duel shots in the film, nor are there any sound effects and dense gunshots, Mark always follows the actions of the characters in the processing of the story, in a quiet environment, "bang", followed by fallen corpses and spreading blood.
The killer wears that seemingly funny hairstyle, walking on the road of slaughter like a ghost, every time he slaughters a person, the killer will always slowly make some strange movements, and it is this seemingly casual slow-paced processing method that allows the audience to read the killer's heart, and similarly, the slow-paced processing method allows the different inner worlds of each character in the film to be displayed in front of the audience one by one, so that the audience feels terrifying, thrilling and has such an indescribable feeling at the same time.
In terms of character creation, extreme humanity is evident in the details
There are three main characters portrayed in this film, the killer Anton, the veteran Morse and the old policeman Ed, three people, three personalities, these three extremely personal characters are the most commendable part of this film, and Mark's special attention to detail in the film also adds a lot to the character image.
For example, the villain killer Anton in this film, Anton seems to be just a slaughtering machine in the film, but the performance of his detailed actions allows the audience to peek into a corner of his inner world. Anton doesn't seem to be chasing money and lust, he just stubbornly follows the principles of his inner world, which leads him to slaughter one innocent person after another.
Mark focuses on Anton's unexpected actions before and after the murder, Anton seems to represent evil, indifference, and old rules in the film, but Anton is not a cold machine without humanity, and certain details are handled to show the audience his human side.
In the film, Anton is ruthless and sophisticated in the slaughter of the Mexican gang, but in front of a Mexican begging for mercy in the bathroom, Anton silently pulls up the curtain in front of the bathroom and shoots the Mexican through the curtain; , Anton unexpectedly took out a coin and decided the life and death of the boss by tossing heads and tails for the boss to choose, and it was this coin toss that gave the boss a chance to continue to survive.
In addition, after Morse died, Anton chased after Morse's wife's residence, and although he agreed with the woman's statement that the whole incident had nothing to do with the woman, Anton still stubbornly wanted to kill the woman, just because Morse chose a choice that Anton thought should not be made. Anton didn't have any expression every time he killed someone, and during his long slaughter, there was never any horror or nervousness on his face, only calmness and composure could be seen.
Among the people he met, there were only two people who were not killed by him, one was the grocery store owner who chose coins, and the other was the young man who kindly helped Anton after his car accident.
Javier understands this, so he can play this role with ease, like a fish in water.
