When Theorod returned to his little attic from work, he saw Marshall sitting in front of his house with a can of beer, and it seemed that when he was separated from Theorod that night, he bought a can of beer and sat here waiting for him.

"Sometimes, your attitude really makes me wonder if you really want to act, kid, do you know how my former guys reacted when they found out that I had a job for them? It's like Christmas is early! And every one of them is over 20. ”

Marshall poured the last sip of beer into his mouth and patted his ass to his feet.

"And you? Well, you say. ”

"Say what?" said Theorod as he opened the door.

"Don't be confused, I can see that you don't seem to be happy with your first job? You don't even know what you're going to play. Marshall smiled with a bit of a headache, shook his head, and followed him into the room, "You don't even know how hard I put into your first interview. ”

To Marshall's surprise, Theolod nodded: "I don't know about the process, but I know that you did pay a lot, maybe too much, after all, I am a seventeen-year-old child who wants a diploma without a diploma and has no experience, I know that my first interview may not be so easy, and I am ready to play tricks." But your attitude tells me that you have won a role for me, and it is definitely not a trick. ”

"That's what makes me unhappy. ”

"What?" the stern look on Theorod's face surprised Marshall, who still didn't seem to understand what the other party meant.

You know, he borrowed money everywhere to invite guests to dinner, and he begged people in a low voice and kept looking at people's faces, but he didn't act to make this child angry. He knew how great Theolod's potential was, and even somehow he had the illusion that pie was falling from the sky, and it was this kid who told him that he could continue to fight, so he wanted to try to win a role for him that could make him take fewer detours.

Marshall, who was so kind and willing to give so much but was poured cold water, was also a little unhappy, but he was not immature enough to fight with a child.

Theolod looked at the obvious unhappy look on the other party's face, and had to sigh in compromise. After being in Hollywood for so long, how could he not know what was going on here? Although Theolod was a warm man on the surface, his self-esteem was stronger than everyone else, and the protective desire derived from this self-esteem even made him unable to bear the dignity of the people he cared about being trampled on by others.

"Well, it's nothing, you're disobedient to me during the rebellious period, you're so conscientious as an agent, thank you, Marshall. Theorod's attitude changed so quickly that Marshall couldn't even react, "So, can you tell me the story of that character?"

As soon as the role was mentioned, Marshall swept away his previous depression and suddenly became energetic: "Man, if you can get this role, I'm afraid you should invite me to dinner, because this is not a small role, but a supporting actor with a certain role, the second male lead, and Richard Gere plays against him, Richard Gere, do you understand?"

Marshall said, looking at Theorod's slightly dazed eyes, and suddenly thought that he seemed to have mentioned how poor his reading experience was, and couldn't help but raise his forehead: "Okay, about your knowledge of Hollywood stars and directors, etc., I'll find time to make up for your mistakes, now you just need to know, although the movies he starred in in recent years are not very good, but he is an actor who has been nominated for the Golden Globe Award, you should always know the Golden Globe Award, right?"

He finally saw Theorod nodding his head.

"The heroine is a well-known Off-Broadway actor, Laura Linney. The name of the movie has been decided, "First Degree Fear", a thriller and suspense legal film, produced by Ryschel Entertainment, distributed by Paramount, and ready to invest 30 million US dollars. Most of the other actors and crew members of the film have also been found, but they can't seem to find a match for this male supporting role, they have invited Leonardo DiCaprio before, but he refused......"

Marshall saw that Theolod still didn't react much, so he had to add: "Well, he's a talented actor as young and beautiful as you, and his acting skills should be better than you...... After all, you've never acted in a film before. ”

"And then? You didn't get the point -- the character itself. Theorod's attitude was so calm that Marshall felt the urge to punch people. Well, in addition to his excellent acting potential, this kid is just a Hollywood layman in every way, and it is completely useless for him to foreshadow him so much that he hopes that he can pay attention to it for the sake of his co-actors.

He had to get straight to the point: "They didn't reveal much about this male partner, now I only know that the character is a child named Alan, a choir child, a nineteen-year-old deacon, who is only childish, and does not seem to be able to lift even a heavier box, but has become a suspect in the murder of the bishop, and he firmly believes that he is innocent, and the male protagonist played by Richard Gere is the child's defense lawyer." ”

"This role doesn't sound difficult, why hasn't the actor been decided?" Theolod listened and touched his chin.

"Who knows, maybe they are too demanding? In short, the filmmaker has decided to select through the audition interview. I knew the director of this film, Gregory Hoberlett, mainly because he and my uncle were college classmates. He had been directing TV series before, and this was his first film. When I learned that he was going to make this film, I handed me your CV and asked him for a favor to get you through the primary. Their age requirement for this character is 18-25 years old, but if appropriate, the 1-2 age limit can be relaxed, and you are just qualified. As for the rest of the interviews, it's up to you. ”

"Anyway......" Marshall clapped his hands, "except that the director and heroine are the first time on the big screen, this film is still quite good as your debut film, what do you think? But you don't have too much pressure, after all, there are a total of 2,100 people who have submitted resumes, so you should take it as an eye-opener." ”

Theolod looked at Marshall's expectant gaze, thought for a moment, and nodded: "Okay, I'll go for an interview the day after tomorrow." ”

The fact that such a simple role has not been decided on for a long time has intrigued Theolod, who has acted in countless films in his previous life, so he understands that sometimes, in order to keep secrets, the filmmaker can go to great length. And this role of Allen's auxiliary priest is definitely not simple.

Seeing that Theolod agreed, Marshall was naturally very happy, he really didn't have too much hope for Theorod, after all, he also heard that among the 200 people who could go to the interview, there was a small star like Matt Damon, he just wanted Theorod to show his face, accumulate experience, and lay a good foundation for the future.

Of course, just because he doesn't have hope doesn't mean he won't work hard, he even asked Theolod to take two days off, and tomorrow he will come over to help Theorod find his feelings about the play. Theorod rejected Marshall's offer, believing that a low-budget (and in his eyes low-cost) role as a supporting actor for a director's big-screen debut would not be needed.

It's not that he's too conceited, nor is it his lack of dedication to the role, it's just his self-confidence and self-cultivation as an actor, and the role he wants to get is absolutely impossible to run into the arms of others.

However, his lack of care does not mean that he disrespects the character, as a conscientious actor, Theorod took the leave of work as a dishwasher tomorrow night and a waiter during the day after tomorrow, locked himself in the attic, and studied this Allen from Marshall's words.

Judging from his experience, such a character who is tightly covered by the filmmaker will definitely surprise the audience at the end. So, this Allen's submissiveness must be just a superficial phenomenon, maybe he's acting, maybe he's a high-IQ perverted murderer, maybe he's just innocent...... Split personality, the murderer is his sub-personality.

And in either case, it seems that it can be solved with a "split personality" trial performance.

Split personality...... Theolod laughed as if he had suddenly found some fun toy.

Hey, brother, can you hear him?Theorod thought to himself, shaking his head, Forget it, it's just a prank, after all, his old buddy never seemed to really replace his body.

He amused himself, leaned back on the couch and closed his eyes, imagining that he was Alan, imagining what Eren would have done in different situations, and what his other personality or true face would be.

Different people study characters in a variety of ways, from frantically researching information to writing and drawing, to experiencing it firsthand, to sitting quietly in place like Theorod. Theorod's approach, on the other hand, depends on the character, and he usually takes this approach to get himself into the play, as is the kind of ambiguous character who knows a split personality very well.

Suddenly, Theolod opened his eyes, but the gentleness and brightness of those eyes were completely gone, replaced by winces and hesitation.

"I ...... I didn't...... Didn't kill ......" he began to mutter, almost cowering into the couch.

In the next second, he suddenly changed his face, and his original fragile and helpless suddenly turned into the fierce god of the ogre, and the coldness in his eyes could even tear people apart alive.

"Shut up, crying bitch, what's the difference between what I kill and what you kill, huh? You're like a fucking slut who doesn't cry and lick other people's asses!" Theorod lowered his voice and roared in a terrifying voice, a hideous look that contrasted sharply with the soft timidity before.

But soon, the malice on his face faded, and only a look of indifferent contemplation remained, as if he was talking to himself meaninglessly and as if reminding himself, and said softly: "No, I am only nineteen years old, I spend most of my time in church, I have evil in my heart, but this evil has not yet been completely exposed to this society, and I am still a child in essence...... Maybe it's because of the abuse I received in my childhood, maybe it's the bishop's indecency/molestation, maybe there's something else......"

"Do I have any friends?...... What friends, girlfriends, boyfriends?...... What do I like...... I don't have a high level of education...... Lack of basic legal awareness, but I think I'm innocent...... Maybe I'll have to pretend to be very innocent to confuse people......"

"Nineteen years old, high IQ...... Well, I might end up being childishly smug...... It's a way to show off and a way to get someone's attention......"

Until late at night, there were still bursts of creepy self-talk coming from Theorod's attic. If Marshall really wants to come over to play, I'm afraid he will twist Theolod into a mental hospital in the next second.
