Chapter 649 Scene 649 A perfect match for talent
In the camera, Holmes and Watson meet for the first time.
"Afghanistan, or Iraq?" When Watson, who was looking for a roommate, entered Holmes' lab, Holmes asked him.
"What did you say?" The audience was as confused as Watson.
"I asked if you had been to Afghanistan or Iraq."
"Excuse me, Afghan, how do you know?"
"What do you think of the violin?"
"Excuse me, what did you say?"
"I play the violin when I'm thinking about a problem, and sometimes I don't say a word for days on end, would you mind? Future roommates should know each other about the worst-case scenario. ”
"Who told you about roommates?"
"I mentioned it, I told Mike in the morning that it must be difficult for a man of my kind to find a roommate, and just after lunch, he brought an old friend who also served in the military in Afghanistan, and it is not difficult to deduce that I have a good house in the heart of London, and we should be able to pay the rent, and see you there at seven o'clock tomorrow night."
The audience, like Watson, was confused by Sherlock Holmes's neurotic self-talk.
"That's it? We've just met, are we going to go to see the property together? We don't know each other at all, we don't know where to meet you, we don't even know what your name is? Watson said with some dissatisfaction.
Benny's Sherlock Holmes stares at him suddenly, a slow, peculiar pause, and then a series of lines that sound like a storm:
"I know that you are a military doctor, you have just returned from retirement from Afghanistan due to injury, and your brother is worried about you, but you refuse to ask him for help, because you don't like him, maybe because the other party is an alcoholic, and more likely because he recently abandoned his wife, and I also know that your counselor thinks that your lameness is a physical and mental illness, and I also think he is very right...... That should be pretty much the same, don't you think? ”
Simon Terry couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this scene, he was completely conquered by this line, and said "wow" in his heart, he had seen many great performances, but he had never seen such an impactful line performance as Sherlock Holmes.
This guy reads very quickly, but the words are clear and penetrating, which is unique among all the actors he has seen, and the most important thing is that he says it so fast as lightning, but even an old man like him understands all the details? How is this done?
"How many seconds did it take him?" Simon Terry turned his head and opened his mouth wide to look at Fred and asked, Fred just sneered disdainfully, "Why is your mental rhythm clock still so bad?" Can't you hear that? ”
"71 words, 14.5 seconds." Charlie replied with a gentle smile on the side, in fact, when they were watching the dailies, why wasn't this expression.
"How is that possible?" Simon Terry's first instinct was that Charlie was talking about it.
"It's 71 words, 14.5 seconds." Fred snorted heavily and glanced at Simon Terry with contempt.
"Oh my God...... How did Benedict Cumberbatch do this? I could hear every word clearly, and there was a clear emotion conveyed in it. Simon Terry was surprised to realize that Fred's old stubbornness wouldn't lie to him.
In fact, speeding up the speed of the lines to the limit, for top British actors, it is not difficult in terms of pronunciation skills, and even those younger generation of rap singers can easily do it, but usually these speeds are fast, as long as it exceeds 5 wonders, people's thinking will be scattered and blurred, and it is easy to start to hear the pronunciation of words clearly, which is the natural reaction of everyone, and Benedict Cumberbatch's lines, he Simon Terry can hear them clearly?
"It's not just Benny's ability, it's Martin's performance." Charlie smiled and pointed to the TV screen and explained;
"You look carefully at the plot behind, whenever Benny temporarily makes his explosive lines, the camera will often cut to a close-up of Martin's face, he uses the delicate expression of his face to attract your attention, so that you can't help but focus, and at the same time, Benny's penetrating voice also strengthens the expressiveness of the explosive lines, the two of them have completely different acting talents, but they are seamlessly added together, the perfect performance of this bridge, the two actors discovered by Director Li are a 'talent match' in performance."
"You mean...... Are they a 'natural match'? Li Xiaole actually discovered a pair of actors with a 'talented match'? Simon Terry's eyes widened in disbelief.
The so-called "gifted and perfectly matched" actor means that although two actors have their own characteristics, they are ordinary when put together, but once they are performed together, the two acting traits are mixed, and they will produce amazing charm and achieve an exponential expressive effect, and in the entire history of Hollywood, there are only a handful of duos who are recognized as having this quality.
There are Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan in "Sleepless in Seattle", "Electronic Love Letters" and "The Man Who Jumped the Volcano": Al Pacino and Robert De Niro in "The Godfather" and "The Fuse", and Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet in "Titanic".
When these 'talented partners' actors get together, they often perform at a high level, because the acting talents of the two can perfectly complement their shortcomings in expressiveness.
It can be seen and touched in this kind of 'talent match' in the actor combination, and ordinary people can't see which two actors have this complementary talent with each other, and they are usually discovered by chance together.
For example, Hong Kong TVB will put all the actors and actresses in their different dramas to break up and combine, and keep trying to find that Zheng Shaoqiu and Zhao Yazhi, Huang Rihua and Weng Meiling, these two pairs of "talent are a perfect match".
And the only ones who can rely on their keen artistic sense to find the characteristic fit between different actors are those top directors.
When James Cameron filmed "Titanic", he first established the heroine Kate Winslet, and has been undecided about the role of Jack, and almost all the first-line young actors at that time have dreamed of the role of Jack for a long time, even including Tom Cruise, who was in full swing back then.
But when James Cameron saw Leonardo DiCaprio, who was thin and didn't look like the actor at all, he instantly determined that this immature actor was Kate Winslet's perfect match.
As a result, these two actors, who couldn't beat at all and whose acting skills were not top-notch, performed the most touching love story in film history, and swept $1.8 billion at the box office
So when Simon Terry heard that Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman were a 'perfect match', his heart was also extremely shocked, but he still didn't believe it, he wondered if the old guy Charlie and Fred were too old and looked away, so he began to stare more intently at the TV screen.
And what happened in the next episode completely proves this fact.
Benedict Cumberbatch, with the cooperation of Martin Freeman, began to unleash Sherlock's amazing talent.
He compressed the reasoning and deduction method that originally took 3 minutes into dozens of seconds with that explosive voice, and the performance was so wonderful that the audience didn't need to use their brains at all, because by the time your brain was running, the legendary detective had already finished the reasoning in a storm, and got a truth that seemed to be made up!
At the same time, the footage is edited faster, the details are zoomed in, and the translucent floating text annotations are like those thought processes that emerge in that smart mind. Li Xiaole, a talented director, is simply in the **** audience with Sherlock Holmes!
What's even more helpless is that you are obviously ****, but you can't hate this high-IQ, mean bastard, because Martin Freeman next to him used his gentle performance to turn this bastard's shortcomings into advantages, so that Sherlock Holmes showed his talents in the open, and at the same time, he also showed that inappropriate sense of joy, which made you unconsciously like this bastard with a long face.
On the screen, the lonely Watson sighed slightly after listening to the reasoning of the equally lonely Sherlock Holmes: "This is really ...... It's amazing. ”
"Do you really think so?"
"Of course...... It's amazing, it's extraordinary,"
"Ordinary people don't say that?"
"What do they say?"
"Get out." Holmes laughed self-deprecatingly, and Watson couldn't help but laugh after him.
These two guys, who were lonely and strange at first, began to unconsciously develop a subtle chemical reaction, which made people think that they were interesting and real, everyone longed to be understood and appreciated, but everyone was disgusted with their own shortcomings at the same time.
I may be gloomy, I may be unpleasant, distant from the crowd and fragile at heart, while you may be neurotic, you may be mean-spoken, sharp-eyed and never leave room for others, even a freak in the eyes of others.
Each of us is the same, we have our own quirks and uniqueness, but we don't want to change ourselves and cater to the world, and when we are independent of the world and feel extremely lonely in our hearts, you will find that there are always a few people in the world, they will stand on your side, unconditionally identify with you, appreciate you, even if they sometimes ridicule you in their mouths, but support you in their hearts.
That's what true friends are.
And only in front of real friends, those shortcomings will also become the advantages in the eyes of the other party, although they will laugh at you in their mouths, but never find fault with you in their hearts, that is a kind of understanding each other, and respect and appreciate each other, the most ordinary, but also the most rare emotion, this is the real friend
