Chapter 650 Scene 650 A Man's Friendship
As time passed, the discerning British audience in front of the TV gradually became completely conquered by the pair, and they began to forget the image of Sherlock Holmes and Watson left by the other 75 pairs of actors in their minds, and the strange guys in front of Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman who teased each other were the real Sherlock Holmes and Watson.
Such a man with curly hair, tall and thin, a long face, wearing a trench coat, who can see through everything, and is called a freak by everyone, yes, he is Sherlock Holmes himself~~~~
In the bar, the originally noisy Sherlock Holmes fans were quiet, staring at the TV screen, sometimes laughing, sometimes fascinated by Benny's long list of lines, most of whom were completely addicted to it, except for a few die-hard people who were still scolding and complaining that they couldn't understand it.
Watson, who was lame because of his inner obstacles, followed Sherlock Holmes through the streets of London, looking for the prisoner, and after recovering his lost heart, after evading the tracking of the police, Watson panted and sighed with great joy:
"It's ridiculous, it's the most ridiculous thing I've ever done."
"You're a soldier who invaded Afghanistan." Sherlock Holmes, who also collapsed, laughed, Watson didn't know why, although he felt stupid, but he couldn't help but laugh happily, the subtle and relaxed pleasure made people smile.
And at the end, Watson shoots the killer who threatens Sherlock Holmes in the dark, and asks him afterwards, "You don't really want to swallow that pill." ”
"Of course not, it's just a matter of delay, I know you're coming." Sherlock Holmes, who escaped death, seriously denied it.
"No, you don't know." Watson looked at him with interest and smiled as if he had seen through him: "You are obviously enjoying it, you risked your life just to prove that you are smart, right?" ”
"Why did I do that?" Holmes squinted.
"Because you're an idiot." Watson smiled appreciatively.
When the camera shifts to Sherlock Holmes's caustic face, the eccentric genius finally reveals a heartfelt smile of pleasure...... It's like Watson looking at him with a smile on his face...... Simple and enjoyable.
Charlie, who was in the apartment, couldn't help but shake Fred's hand when he saw this, and both of them couldn't help but smile at each other, and their minds came to mind the simple time when the two of them were young and rehearsing together, when they were able to do all kinds of absurd things without scruples, without purpose or profit, but they enjoyed it, and it was the best time of their lives.
Simon Terry on the side felt a sense of inexplicable loneliness welling up from the bottom of his heart, the Sherlock Holmes fans in the bar were also drinking the wine in their hands, reminiscing about their childhood playmates, and the bus stop stopped to watch the big screen on the commercial building, those busy white-collar workers who had just gotten off work, couldn't help but show a smile, thinking about old friends who had not been in touch for a long time......
I don't know when we have fewer and fewer friends around us, those playmates who mingled every day when we were young have gradually become estranged, and those brothers who used to sleep on the top bunk in college have also disappeared into the vast sea of people......
Look at the people around you who interact every day, but now there are only those indifferent colleagues, drinking and meat friends who only appear when eating and singing, and lovers who urge you to keep moving forward every day but don't know your inner thoughts......
When we become mature, we seem to do everything for a certain purpose, get married to have children, work to make money, drink with people to get a contract, we seem to be just numb to run towards one goal after another.
When we talk to other people, we only measure the depth of our friendship according to the amount of interest, and the only topics we talk about are cold words like house, job, and stocks.
And are we really happy? I still remember when we were children chasing football on the grass, sweating wantonly, forming an orchestra in college to sing loudly, staying up all night in the Internet café, playing CS excitedly, we didn't chase any interests at that time, we were just doing those meaningless things, and we were also able to be happy easily......
We used to think that those happiness were because of football, music, games...... But when I look back, we have forgotten those specific things, and all we remember are those green faces, laughing with us, crying with us, and crazy with us......
We lose our purest happiness because we lose our friend, the friend who doesn't want to profit from us at all, but just does the seemingly ridiculous things together, crying and laughing together.
Looking at the relaxed and cheerful atmosphere between Watson and Sherlock Holmes on the screen, everyone remembers that they have had similar moments, deep friendships that have faded away.
The people who sat in front of the TV and watched "Sherlock" unconsciously felt something other than the detective story in the light-hearted and happy plot.
Middle-aged people in their thirties and forties began to look for the old phone book in the drawer, and young people in their 20s began to look for information about their former table mates in the online alumni directory.
Is Sherlock a cliché Sherlock Holmes story? Yes, but not only, what the young Sherlock Holmes and Watson brought to the audience was not only a story of a high-IQ detective with a mobile phone, packaged by modern technology, but also a high-IQ detective with a mobile phone.
While the women were simply moved by the unique charm and temperament exuded by Sherlock Holmes and Watson, the men felt more of the friendship they missed so much in the story.
"Lee is really well shot, it's the best Sherlock Holmes and Watson I've ever seen." Charlie couldn't help but stand up excitedly, looked back at Fred and said in a trembling voice: "Fred, we succeeded, we can keep the council this time~~"
"Well......" Fred, who has been in a state of high tension, did not relax until he watched the entire first episode and made sure that there were no broadcast mistakes, and took a deep breath and said, this time there is no problem, Li Xiaole's modification in the last version is far better than the previous one, this is not an unconventional commercial drama, this is the perfect retention of the inner essence of Sherlock Holmes, the best adaptation of the story~~
Simon Terry looked at the end of the first episode of "Sherlock" in a daze, looked at Fred and Charlie, who were holding hands with each other and smiling, stood up with a lost face, and left the apartment without even saying hello.
Walking on the road, he kept recalling various scenes in "Sherlock" in his mind, and he suddenly realized that he had made a serious mistake, that Li Xiaole was not the same as Weinstein at all, he was definitely not a businessman who simply wanted to come to the UK to make a fortune, or open the British market.
Rather, he respects the local British theater culture from the bottom of his heart, and is a truly sentimental artist, although he wraps Sherlock Holmes in a modern coat, but in his bones he retains the true core of this novel, a core of human nature that has been ignored by everyone for a long time - friendship.
This is something that no American director can do, and in the drizzle, he turned his head to look at the old Gothic apartment, and unconsciously said to himself, "Fred...... Well done. ”
At the same time, Li Xiaole, who was sitting in the office, had just finished watching this episode of "Sherlock" and immediately received a call from Benedict Cumberbatch.
"Li, I think my smile time in the last shot is too short, and the rhythm is longer, do you think I should smile more when I say my lines, I still think my eyes are too fierce, and ~~ I feel that the body language is still weaker, and the person who plays the violin, the gesture should be more public......"
Benedict Cumberbatch's voice was nervous, excited, restless, agitated, as if all sorts of emotions were converging, and he himself had no idea what he was talking about.
"Benny, calm down, you say slow down, there is no Martin to help you now, I can't hear your fast lines clearly, take a deep breath, take a deep breath~~" Li Xiaole smiled into the phone.
"Whew......" Benny took a few deep breaths on the other end before he finally calmed down, but then an indescribable feeling came to his heart, his nose was sour, and he choked on his phone:
"Lee~~~ I succeeded...... I succeeded...... 'Modern Deduction' website, all of which were comments praising me...... Just now my agent told me that the advertising manager of Bedave personally called and wanted me to endorse their trench coat...... Now my father ...... My father was dancing in the kitchen, and I had never seen him so happy...... He was on the phone and told everyone he knew that I played Sherlock Holmes and his son played Sherlock Holmes...... He's proud of me~~"
Before that, although Benedict Cumberbatch did not show it, he was already physically and mentally exhausted, and after announcing that he would play Sherlock Holmes, he became the laughing stock of the whole of England, and the media ridiculed him every day, and Oscar-winning actor Heath Ledger actually gave him a supporting role as a third-rate actor?
Whether it's his father, his friends, and everyone who knows him, they all think he's crazy to take on this role.
And now after this episode is broadcast, he feels that the whole person is relieved, not only from the suffocating pressure of public opinion, but also from the career of an unliterate actor for more than ten years~ But after tonight~~ Everyone will understand that he finally succeeded~~~ He Benedict Cumberbatch is the best Sherlock Holmes in history~~~~!!
