214 Father
I don't know who was the first to applaud, I don't know who shouted the first "bravo", but Theorod sat in place and calmed down, just kept a humble smile and nodded slightly to thank the crowd who kept clapping. This article is written by: The starter Ted gave him a heartfelt thumbs up, but Theolod gestured back to him for encouragement and recognition.
He also seemed to see Christina Jung herself in the crowd, who had a role in the show, and Ted had made it clear to her after filming that if she wanted to stay or work part-time, he would definitely welcome it. The young director knew that Cristina still had some residual feelings for her father, although she didn't admit it and didn't want to go to prison to see him.
But if she hadn't forgiven her father in her heart, she wouldn't have agreed to play a role in her father's biopic so easily, but she was still a little guilty. Ted is not an expert in emotional disputes, nor is he a great man, he just hopes that Miss Jung can learn about George Jung that she has never known before through this movie, and as for what she will think after understanding, whether the gap between father and daughter can be repaired, it is not something he can control.
At this moment, the ordinary woman who looked a little like George Jung himself, saw Theorod's gentle gaze with a little bit of George's shadow looking over, and immediately wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes in embarrassment, and regardless of whether her rude movements wiped her makeup, she turned around and looked away, avoiding Theorod's gaze.
However, the big star, who was surrounded by everyone, bypassed his assistant at this moment, walked directly in front of her, and said to her in his incomparably pampering and soft voice that she had heard countless times, only to Christina Jung's little actor during the performance: "How are you doing these few days on the set?"
Christina wanted to tell him to get out of the way, but she couldn't, whether it was because the other party was an actor she liked, or because of the other party's "fatherly" tone at this moment, she could only turn her head and reply in a muffled voice: "It's good, you can see my idol perform every day, and the part-time salary is not low, I am very happy." โ
"Oh, that's good, actually, when Ted first talked to me about it, I wasn't quite sure you'd stay. Theolod said with a smile, handing her a tissue by the way, "Although you said you joined the crew because of me, but, you know, my role makes me a little embarrassed to approach you." โ
Thinking that the "George" in front of her was talking to "Christina" in this tone, Christina Jung felt irritated in her heart, and even her tone was not very good: "So what, I said that I was just here to chase stars, as for what you are playing about my......"
The atmosphere between the two suddenly became awkward.
"I'm sorry......" Christina also knew that her tone was a little rushed just now, and the object of this tantrum was still her idol, she couldn't help but apologize in annoyance, but she didn't want to give in too much, she wasn't stupid, of course she understood the director's intention to keep her.
"Don't think about it, Theo, I'm just crying for your show. She muttered that his father had indeed left her grandfather a tape, and she didn't quite know what it was, but she knew that what Theorod had just performed was his own beautification, and maybe a sentence or two was the bastard's exact words, but so what?
He swore with his own daughter's life that he would definitely come back and take her to Los Angeles, and he missed the appointment.
"Yes, if I can impress George Jung's daughter, then I've succeeded. You know, that's what Mr. Jung has always wanted to say, and he asked me to say hello to you, he misses you, Miss Jung. โ
โโฆโฆ Enough, don't talk in that tone anymore, you're just playing my father, and you're not my real father, you don't understand anything!" Christina couldn't help but raise her voice, Theolod was too genius, he played George Rongde so similar that she couldn't even think of him as her own idol, and even she didn't know where her temper came from in the face of such a polite gentleman.
When she spoke, many people around her heard it, and they all looked over here, including director Ted who also noticed the abnormality here. Being stared at like this by everyone, Christina also realized that she was too loud just now, but now is not the time to regret it, she can only stubbornly purse her lips, ready to turn around and leave.
Theolod's sigh, which was stained with her father's smell, sounded behind her: "That's right, you're right, I'm not your father, I'm just an actor who strives to interpret the role perfectly in every performance." โ
Theolod glanced at the staff members around him, and was swept by his oppressive gaze, and everyone couldn't help but shudder, and quickly withdrew their lively eyes and pretended to be busy.
"I'm sorry, Miss Jung, but I've bothered you with my strictness of myself, and maybe there are times when it's hard for me to really get out of the role, especially since you're Mr. Jung's daughter, 'my' daughter. Theolod rubbed his forehead and sighed, "But that's why I want to tell you that you're wrong, and I'm not ignorant of nothing." โ
"Acting is an art, and there are indeed a lot of glorification factors in filming a work, maybe in your eyes, I'm just a stranger who has been over-glorified and bleached, but I hope you can believe that your favorite idol is not a guy who plays an illusion. I used to talk to Mr. Jung in prison for a while, not for a long time, but I kept observing him, and I was able to memorize the script word for word, not because I had a good memory, but because I always thought of myself as George Jung. โ
"Aside from the artistic component, deep down, as George Jung, I can understand a father's feelings for his daughter, and I don't want such sincere feelings to be treated as a performance by you. But I am not your father, and I don't want to be mistaken by you, not only to insult the real George Jung in prison, but also to offend you, to tarnish the image of your father who still lives in your heart. โ
"I don't have a ...... in my heart at all" Christina wanted to quibble, but looking at the smile on the corner of Theolod's mouth and looking at his deep gaze, she couldn't say anything quibble, and finally could only grit her teeth and say, "What do you want to say?"
"I have an idea, the adult version of Christina Jung in the last scene, do you dare to try it?" In Christina's eyes, the smiling idol at the moment is like a fox with bad intentions, "After you try it, you will know what I want to say, there are some things that the onlooker will never experience." โ
Christina, who was induced by the old fox, finally gave the answer of trying and trying, so much so that Ted, who had been observing the two, was confused by the meaningful smile on his face when he saw Theolod walking back. And when he suggested that George could meet an adult Christina in prison and that Christina herself could play it instead of playing it, the confusion on his face was even greater.
"Don't really think of her as your daughter, she's older than you. Ted didn't know whether to admonish or joke.
Although judging from his actual age, Theolod still has a lot to do as her father, but he can't say it, he just shakes his head: "Of course I know that." โ
"Then what happened to you letting her play your daughter in the end?"
"Then why would you agree?"
Ted was dumbfounded by his question, so he ignored him, but looked at Christina, who was listening to the assistant director's lecture on the other side, and heard the assistant director say to her, "Just talk to him as if he were your father", and he noticed that Christina's face flashed with unnaturalness.
Christina has no acting training, and the role still has a few lines, and I don't know if she can succeed, if not, it's better to change back to a role. Ted didn't know what to do, after all, it seemed that Christina was more than a little estranged from her father, and it seemed that she was still having an unpleasant relationship with her idol.
However, it didn't take long for Ted to realize that his worries were unwarranted, and he underestimated George's place in Christina's heart, as well as Theolod's acting influence.
Looking at the "father" in front of him who had been made a lot older by makeup technology, and watching the surprise, love, sadness, pampering and other emotions in his eyes mixed together, and finally converging into a thick and indissolvable tenderness, Christina found that her throat seemed to be blocked by a stone, and the pain was so bad that her eyes were moist.
"You're back, little sweetie. This sentence seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and the familiar name could not be more familiar, so that the tears in Christina's eyes could not help dripping at all.
She had a little fantasizing about what she would say if she saw George after all these years. Maybe she'll scold, maybe she'll sneer, maybe she'll just ignore him and turn around and leave...... But she never imagined that she would cry like a child into George's arms, choked up and speechless, and that her father would greet her like parents who greeted their children as if they were coming home from school.
He's been waiting, he's been waiting for her.
"The little sweetheart of the beginning is now slim, and I ......" George's hoarse voice with a slight trilling voice sounded like a sigh in Christina's ears, and he looked at his dirty hands stained with mud from prison work, and wiped them several times before gently, as if afraid of shattering a beautiful dream, he carefully hugged his daughter, but still afraid that his hands would touch her white dress.
"And I, nothing. โ
Christina, who had a sore throat, could only shake her head and struggled to say, "No, it's not......"
"You're my best achievement, my baby sweetheart......" Hearing his daughter's hoarse voice, George hugged her almost with joy, but his hands still didn't touch her as if he was afraid of getting her dirty, "You are the most precious treasure of my life, I hold on to you, Christina, I hold on to you, I love you......"
Hearing the word "hold on", Ted's heart suddenly struck, and he suddenly thought of Theorod's five-minute monologue scene before, where he had said that he couldn't catch anything. At this moment, he swore so much, and even repeatedly emphasized with a hint of fear that he was holding on to his daughter, but ......
His hands never "grabbed" her.
At that moment, Ted felt a wordless sadness, especially when George asked Christina to walk with him, and Christina took the initiative to grab his hand, his look of surprise and joy, and he thought that after watching this last scene, he would probably be beaten to death by the angry and heartbroken audience-
"George...... George!It's time to go back!" the stern and cold voice of the prison guard brought back George's consciousness.
He stood dumbfounded in the middle of the vast empty meadow, and he was the only one on the lawn fenced by iron nets. He looked at his right hand, which was still holding hands, it was empty, there was nothing, the so-called father-daughter reunion, the so-called forgiveness, the so-called visit, in fact, were just his wishful thinking.
He couldn't grasp anything.
George laughed self-deprecatingly, at that moment, the loneliness and despair in his eyes almost made everyone's hearts pinch up, and they couldn't even breathe smoothly, they looked at the back of the elderly George holding his arms tightly and walking back silently, and suddenly felt that this ending, although it was real, was too cruel, after all, the tone of the movie at the beginning was quite relaxed and cheerful.
Although Theorod's performance earned him tears again, but Ted, who was panicked at the moment, was very excited, he just shouted "cut" and was about to rush over to give the child a bear hug, a figure rushed into Theorod's arms one step ahead of him and hugged him tightly, he looked at it and smiled again.
It's Christina. As early as when she saw the despair and pain on the face of George, that is, Theorod, she couldn't help but want to rush over and hug each other, she wanted to tell him that her daughter had not abandoned him, and his Christina was still the only one in his life, and now that the filming was over, she couldn't help it even more, and rushed over to hug each other without thinking about it, hugging her "father" like when she was a child, and the other party also gently patted her back like she did when she was a child.
"Miss Jung, Mr. Jung is still waiting for you. After a long time, Christina suddenly heard the familiar and unfamiliar voice, she instantly woke up, realized what she had done, she immediately let go of Theorod, her face flushed, and she was red directly to the base of her neck.
And the others on the set just smiled at her with encouragement and comfort, and applauded softly.
"Sorry, and ...... Thank you...... It's true. Christina said embarrassedly Theorod.
I apologize for her previous attitude towards him, and thank him for making her realize her father's feelings for her and for him. She thought that maybe after the movie was finished, she should go to prison and see her father, she didn't want him to live in this suffocating fantasy forever.
She loved her father. 166 Reading Network
