Tom is not an acting genius, but he is very industrious, which is Tom's virtue; At the same time, it is also the reason why Lance has confidence in Tom.

Tom was chosen as the breakthrough in the first place, not only because Michael Mann's version of "Murder by a Knife" was starred by Tom, not only because Tom's star aura can win more negotiation space for Lance, but also because of Tom's diligence, hard work and persistence, so that Lance can take advantage of Tom's desire for a golden man, and can also really occupy a place in the awards season competition.

After the filming of this scene just now, Lance couldn't help but nod lightly in his heart.

Objectively speaking, is Tom's performance perfect, enough to rival the likes of Daniel Day-Lewis and Sean Penn? Of course not. After careful observation, you can still detect the traces of "idols" in Tom's performance, for example, when he hooks the corners of his mouth, the curvature seems to be measured with a tape measure, showing Tom's charm completely; For example, after he lowered his head, his expression was too stiff, as if he was taking a hard photo of a magazine cover, more like a pose, but there was no story in the pose and expression...... These are still indelible details of Tom's acting habits.

However, Tom has given Vincent's character an indescribable charm in his performance just now - not a positive or negative connotation, but a kind of black humor. If Lance's performance shows ruthlessness and decisiveness to the fullest, then Tom's performance has a strange sense of ironic comedy, with a vague smile on the corner of his mouth, but the bottom of his eyes is cold, and this strong contrast reveals a strong effect under the reflection of the lights; At the same time, Tom's rhythm and tone of voice were not as tough as Lance's, but rather had a lingering chic—habitual charm that contrasted with the extremely tense atmosphere in the carriage. produces a kind of dry humor that the plot itself does not have.

Perhaps, Tom's performance is still not perfect, but Lance can make the most of it. After integrating into the plot, his performance became full and full. And Tom also gave Vincent a very different kind of life.

Acting is a very personal matter, there are a thousand Hamlets in a person, and each actor will give the performance his own brand, even if it is a vase, it is also a thousand forms, and the actor and the role cannot be separated and talked about independently. This is Lance's favorite part of acting, many people like to experience different lives and different experiences during the performance, but what Lance likes is that the same scene bursts out with different charms under the interpretation of different actors. Or maybe the same actor excavates his different hearts when performing different scenes.

Tom stood next to him, feeling a little nervous, and the feeling of apprehension made him really uncomfortable. The last time he felt this way was when he was working with Stanley Kubrick.

Looking at the performance on the monitor, Tom bit the inside of his lip and pondered over and over again, it seems that he should restrain his smile a little more, his eyes seem to be too bright when he laughs, and the rhythm of his performance seems to be too rushed...... How did Lance perform just now? Why are memories starting to blur in my head?

"Oh......" Tom couldn't help but be a little annoyed, and wailed inwardly. The hands coiled in front of his chest clenched into fists.

"Good." Lance's voice came from the side, and Tom couldn't help but exhale softly, and he knew he was going to shoot again. His performance was still not good enough, and he nodded and said "Good!" But after he said that, he saw that Lance had turned to Albert and shouted, "Get ready for the next scene." This made Tom stand there in a daze.

After waiting for a while, Tom's head reacted, he thought for a moment, stepped forward and patted Lance's arm, "Are you sure this scene is okay just now?" I think there are still some problems with the details. ”

Lance raised an eyebrow in surprise, but then saw Tom's nervous expression. And I got it," Tom. The great part of the show is that every show is different. And no performance can be called perfect. After saying that, Lance smiled, "This is already over, I said it." He patted Tom on the shoulder, and then turned to get ready for the next scene.

Tom thought about it carefully, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was slightly hooked, and he couldn't help but bloom greatly, but then he immediately put away his smile, let out a long breath, and his shoulders tensed again, because he knew that this was just a scene, and there was still a long way to go before the whole movie was completed.

"No, no need to find extras, we will shoot here, remove the barrier belt of the crew, let pedestrians come in, and shoot covertly, the effect will be better." Lance explained to Albert, "By the way, you go and ask about the arrangement of the lighting group, the lights of these stores on the side of the road need to be adjusted accordingly, you hurry up and negotiate with the store." ”

In this scene, Max's taxi was stopped by the traffic police because the windshield was smashed, and it was parked on the side of the road for review. Therefore, the lights on the side of the road need to be adjusted, and the preparation is more cumbersome, and this is the time to test Albert.

Albert didn't find it cumbersome at all, and simply turned around and got busy.

Watching Albert leave, Hayden walked over and whispered in Lance's ear, "Even when 'Magnolia' was filmed, Tom wasn't so nervous. Hayden is the second photographer of "Magnolia", and maybe Tom doesn't know him, but he naturally doesn't forget Tom.

Lance looked back and saw that Tom was sitting next to him again and began to read the script, but he didn't get carried away, just patted Hayden on the shoulder and said meaningfully, "Deals, all are just deals." ”

Don't look at Tom now at Lance's mercy, as if he's really convinced. But Lance knew that if the quality of the finished product was not satisfactory, or if it didn't make a difference during the awards season, even if Tom didn't settle accounts with him, Terrance wouldn't let go.

Tom bows his head because of what he promised, not because of his charisma.

But at least it is certain that in tonight's hard battle, Lance has won a phased victory, and in the next period of time, he can complete the shooting of "killing people with a knife" according to his own ideas, which is good news.

It is true that after Tom got better, the crew gradually got on track. Actors such as Kate Beckinsale, Mark Ruffalo, and Javier Bardem were very cooperative, which allowed Lance to pour all his energy into the filming of the film - to ensure that the narrative rhythm of "killing with a knife" could be tightened.

Michael Fassbender is a very hard-working up-and-coming actor, who arrives at the set almost every day and waits until the crew is finished before leaving with everyone, with or without his role. At first, people thought that Michael was just trying to curry favor with the crew and hope to win more acting opportunities in the future, but later it turned out that Michael was there to watch the filming of every scene.

Albert found this interesting, and when he asked him why, he received a surprising answer, "I'm learning acting from Mr. Strello." Even Albert couldn't understand it, because Lance couldn't be considered a "master" at all, and as a director, there were only two works, and as an actor, this was the first work, so why did Michael choose this way?

Michael himself couldn't say why, he just thought "I can learn a lot".

When Lance found out about this, he just laughed it off and didn't take it to heart. But Michael became a beautiful scenery for the crew, and later Kate and Mark also joined Michael's ranks, squatting on the scene in every scene, observing all the details of the shooting, and then blocking behind the monitor, listening to Lance and Tom's discussion. These people are like tails that can't be shaken off, firmly following behind Lance, which has also become a joke among the crew.

"When you see Michael, you know where Lance is."

This became a joke from the crew of "Killing with a Knife", and at first Lance found it very disturbing, feeling that he was being followed everywhere he went, and reprimanded Michael several times, but with little success; Later, Lance found out that they didn't follow everywhere, mainly for acting, as long as he started to talk, they would appear, so Lance let it go. Anyway, in this way, it can also allow Michael and others to grow up quickly, which is beneficial and harmless for the next shooting.

Unconsciously, Lance returned to his previous job as an acting teacher, and this illusion did not make Lance feel nervous, but a little relaxed. In the last life, before he discovered the truth, he simply chased his dreams and ran wildly, and that innocent and pure life brought the most happiness. People are always like this, as they grow up, life becomes more and more complicated, happiness becomes more and more complicated, and the happiness of childhood can no longer be found; It's just that in the end, I forgot whether my life was complicated or I was complicated.

In the blink of an eye, it has been more than two weeks since the start of "Killing with a Knife", but the shooting progress is still slightly lower than expected, mainly because Lance is too nitpicky, and has put forward super high requirements for lighting, performance, and camera positioning, fortunately, after the destruction of the run-in period, the crew is now on track, and the entire crew has begun to speed up.

"Did you hear that? Diorama Pictures has become the biggest hit this year's awards season. A small pebble was thrown into the undisturbed lake of "borrowing a knife to kill", and there were ripples in a circle. (To be continued.) )
