98. Verse 98: Don't do things that don't come to fruition
After Xin Ran finished speaking, of course he knew that it was wrong to say this, but he was still a little happy, and unconsciously shook from side to side, waiting for his reaction.
However, this kind of film inevitably has some intimate scenes, and the following picture really makes people blush and heartbeat. Besides, even if you can not blush, you have to pretend in front of Shen Su. He put his hand on his eyes, "Ahem...... How can you ...... like this?"
"It's all men, what is there to reveal. Shen Su continued to eat popcorn calmly, "Besides, don't you think this one who plays Wei Erlun looks really sorry? ”
"But...... That's pretty much the case with the archetypal characters! It's because of the contrast, otherwise why would Verlaine be so fanatical about Rimbaud!"
"Look. ”
Shen Su pointed to the screen with a smile, and the middle-aged poet Verlaine repeatedly asked the beautiful young man Rimbaud for confirmation: "I have never loved anyone as much as I love you...... Tell me, do you love me, answer me, it's important to me. ”
Rimbaud was noncommittal: "You know I like you very much. So...... Do you love me?"
Verlaine nodded softly and weakly, "Love you." ”
Then Rimbaud stared at him and ordered, "Put your hands on the table...... Palm up. ”
Verlaine obediently put his palm up, even though he knew what he might be doing.
Rimbaud said as he ran the knife over Verlaine's hand, then plunged the knife into the palm of the hand.
The young and beautiful poet, with his morbid sensitivity, vulnerability, suspicion and lack of self-confidence, may want to imprint his own existence and physical pain deeply into the soul of the other person, so that the other person will never forget himself.
Shen Su lowered his head, "Even so, is it okay? Don't you think he's cruel?"
Xin Ran knew that Rimbaud, the pioneer of the Beat and the originator of surrealism, was still one of the most striking geniuses of the nineteenth century, even though he had only been writing poetry for five years. Such people often have a scorching, intense soul, and there is nowhere to put it. So they hurt others and themselves, and the closer they get to them, the deeper they are hurt, almost inevitably. What's more, it's still such a beautiful person.
Maybe it's because beautiful people are easy to be spoiled, or because beauty is really too fragile, so beautiful people often have a cruel side, and the more beautiful they are, the more cruel they are. Because if you don't, like Rimbaud, if you share this beauty with others at will, it will quickly wither. So, when the two are combined, the destructive power is almost destructive.
The light in the cinema was dim, and Xin Ran's line of sight went on and off with the screen, looking at Shen Su hanging his head, which was a perfect side line. Do you think you are not cruel?! Xin Ran suddenly wanted to grab his hands and press him to the back of the chair, kiss him hard, and see if he could still be so calm and indifferent. However, if you do this, you will be beaten to death......
"However, they were very beautiful before, at least they had, those beautiful moments......"
At the end of the story, when Rimbaud stands on the docks, crying to his departed lover and begging him to come back, his beautiful face has such a sad expression.
Leaving Verlaine, Rimbaud traveled all over Europe, and after a short period of more than a decade, he died of hunger and cold. Although he abandoned and deeply hurt Verlaine, and when he was with Verlaine for a short time, it was only out of need for material support and the opportunity for Verlaine to propelle him into the literary world, and he may not even really love him at all.
But in Verlaine's heart, he actually preferred to believe that the young man had always loved him helplessly. He just doesn't know how to be gentle with people, how to love someone better. The marks he carved in the palms and hearts of his hands, like the tumors that the two of them were born in the same knees, will be difficult to heal for a lifetime, let alone erase its traces.
This kind of love is a kind of demagoguery, and it is also a kind of poison, and there is no cure. It was his drunken dreams that he would not wake up, his joyful sorrows, wounds that he would never heal. It is also the hope that he understands that there is no tomorrow, and that he will despair after all, but will always hold on to it.
In Verlaine's dream, Rimbaud was the same pale boy, smiling at him while never ceaseless to walk forward. That eternally youthful and beautiful boy is the greatest glory and sin of his life.
The most poignant, the encounter.
Eventually, the teenager said I had found it. His voice whispered in the wind, "At the junction of the sea and the sky, is the sun." ”
He looked back, a smile spread in the warm and bright sun, "That's eternity." ”
The subtitles at the end of the film slowly flashed out, and Shen Su said in a deep voice: "Yes, it used to be beautiful, but the ending is not good, or rather, there is no ending at all." ”
"What does that matter?!" Xin Ran's eyes widened, "Beauty, it's the most lethal thing. Isn't this ending normal?!"
Shen Su raised his head and looked at him intently, "I always feel that if there is no result, don't do it." ”
Xin Ran stood up unconsciously, unable to face Shen Su's gaze, and instead frowned and stared at the big screen unconsciously. For a long time, until there was no one else in the whole hall but them, he said, "Let's go." ”
Because he was leaving, Xin Ran didn't obsess about being clean or unclean, and Shen Su ate all kinds of snacks on the food street. Maybe it's because of the completion of a job, or for some other reason, Shen Su seems to have put down a big stone in his heart, and he is very happy, all steamed buns and pork, acorn tofu, glutinous rice sausages, and hand-sprinkled lamb chops. As for why both of them only need one portion? He tried it first, and if he thought it was delicious, he would eat it himself, and if it was not delicious, he would push it to Xin Ran......
Whether it was delicious or not, Xin Ran would silently accompany him to eat a little, but rarely spoke.
Shen Su had almost eaten, and suddenly remembered something, "Xin Ran, can you take care of Rabbit Bao for me first? I will come back to film after a while." Stray cats are usually very timid because they have the experience of being abandoned, and they are not suitable for moving around, which will scare them and may get sick. ”
Thinking of the kind of creature that sheds its hair and keeps barking, Xin Ran subconsciously blurted out, "Ah?!I've never had cats, I don't know how to take care of them, don't raise you to death again." And...... I have a sensitive nose and am not very good at raising mammals. ”
The former sentence may be true, the latter sentence is obviously a pretext, and it starts again. He didn't expect to be rejected, let alone be rejected like this. Shen Su lowered his eyelashes, "Well, then I'll take it back to Shencheng." ”
"Uh...... Shall I try it first?"
Shen Su smiled and said, "No need, the crew is finished, you are so busy, I shouldn't trouble you." ”
His smile and tone showed a hint of politeness and detachment, Xin Ran was a little panicked, thinking that he was angry, and then felt annoyed, why don't you help him raise a cat?!
But Xin Ran answered the phone, looked at the phone again, and immediately became happy, "Hey, hey, hey, don't leave first, tomorrow the heavens will send you to visit the class, and the director said that if you are free, you will stay for a long time! I didn't hear Zhao Xiaojing just called, and I left a text message asking me to tell you not to leave!"
Shen Su paused, "Who do you say is coming?"
"Aoao, just that hard-tasting screenwriter!"
"What do you mean, damned?"
"Haha, don't you think that falling in love under her hands is like being punished by God? Look, one of the three pairs in the play has a good result? Don't they all have to be misunderstood, and when they are untied, they will all hang up, and our six-person group, except for you and Moke, will almost be wiped out!"
"Then don't give people nicknames indiscriminately, and they are called so ugly. ”
Are you talking to that girl? Next time, change to a more ruthless one! Xin Ran's eyebrows were twisted, but he said, "Okay." Then don't you go yet!"
"What's the matter after all the filming, why do you want to stay?"
"Shen Su, just stay for another day......"
Xin Ran pulled a little of Shen Su's sleeve and couldn't help shaking, looking at him pitifully, Liuhai hung down to cover his eyes, and pouted, like a little boy.
"Hey......" Shen Su sighed helplessly, feeling that it was becoming more and more difficult for him to refuse. When you are serious, there seems to be a special aura that makes you want to listen to him. When he was childish, he was cute and pitiful, and he couldn't bear to refuse, otherwise it would be as if he had hurt him. "Okay. ”
Xin Ran sent him back to the dormitory, walked to the door, Shen Su said, "Then I'll go back first......"
"Hey!" Xin Ran stretched out his hand to block the door, "You are not allowed to follow...... I'll sneak away tomorrow!"
"Got it, you're so annoying!"
The next morning, Shen Su not only did not leave, but also sat on the sidelines dutifully to help Xin Ran take things and hand over his mobile phone. Xin Ran came back from filming a few scenes, and stretched out his hand to Shen Su very casually, and Shen Su gave him a bottle of mineral water.
Xin Ran took two sips proudly, only to find that not far behind Shen Su stood a young girl with a long black straight and beige dress, looking at him angrily. Xin Ran frowned, then pulled down his face and pouted back, "Who is that, new assistant, why haven't I heard you say it?!"
Shen Su turned his head suspiciously, and said with a smile: "You don't recognize it?" ”
"Ah?!" Xin Ran was stunned for a moment, he had become a living person, what about the glasses, and what about the sack pieces?!
Then I saw the girl grabbing Zhao Xiaojing who came over, gritting her teeth, "He used me Su as an assistant!"
Seeing Zhao Xiaojing, Xin Ran glanced back again to be sure that this was indeed Zhang Ge.
"Xin Ran......" Zhao Xiaojing walked over with a slightly red face, "Can you come over here for a while, I have something to tell you." ”
Xin Ran tilted his head to look at her and said with a smile: "What, you also want to confess?"
Although he was laughing casually, Xin Ran still walked over.
"No, it's not!" Zhao Xiaojing's face turned even redder, and she stumbled and said, "Although, although I know that I shouldn't, I still want to ask you for something." The theme of our next issue is friends, can you please have an exclusive interview with Mr. Yao Yuan?"
Xin Ran chuckled, his face sank, and he brought two points of mockery, "Since you know, you shouldn't say it." Do you know you well? Make an appointment with me directly and ask your editor-in-chief to find an agent!"
