Spacey's question made Theron stunned for a moment, "Is there a difference?" ”

"Of course there is, top stars, they don't necessarily need to be able to act, but they will definitely be stars. They have exposure, they have fans, they can scream and cheer everywhere they go, they have a lot of attention, they have a lot of money, and the media is full of news about them, from them making movies and singing songs to whether they wear tops when they walk around their homes - that's what celebrities are. And many of the top actors are big stars, but there are also some more miserable, who can only play some bald, killer, ** and other roles - for example, I am a top actor, but for those big stars, I can only express jealousy, oh, jealousy madness. ”

Spacey's self-deprecating boasting and exaggerated movements swept away Theron's depression, and in the laughter, she also saw Spacey's serious eyes, and she knew that the question was not a joke, but a very serious one.

She didn't know why Spacey was asking the question, but Spacey's question was clearly meaningful.

"Charlie, inaccurate positioning of oneself is the enemy of one's success. You have all kinds of troubles right now because you don't have an accurate position for yourself. You have to know what kind of person you want to be. Do you want to be a big star? Then, you should pay more attention to shaping your own image: find yourself a little more lace news, participate in more public events, pay attention to fashion trends in your clothing taste, and which famous people your boyfriend should look for, and cooperate to improve each other's reputation...... That way, you're a star. ”

"Can I be a star?"

"Why not? You have the most important thing to be a star. You've got beauty, you've got fashion, you've got a boyfriend – you can have it right away, if you want it. Spacey's words made Theron laugh, and those words were a joke, but they were true. Theron is young, beautiful, and fashionable, these things don't mean much to an actor, but they are very important to a star.

"If you want to become a star, it's not that difficult, your conditions can be easily met." Spacey continued, "But do you want to live like this yourself? ”

Spacey's question made Theron stunned for a while, she didn't know what to say, when she came to Hollywood, she was aiming for the fame and life of stars, but when she took various acting classes and learned acting skills, she also began to want to be a good actor.

All this time, Theron had something he hadn't said to anyone. She may not like being an actor as much as she imagined, but since she has chosen this industry, this is what she has been working towards.

To be a star or an actor? In Theron's opinion, there is no hesitation: both, of course. Others' love and respect for others, why can't you want them all? Give up something? Abandoning the word has never been Theron's favorite.

Just, what is Spacey talking about?

"I can guess some of your intentions: the life of an actor is not quite the same as you imagined, you feel aggrieved and uncomfortable. Then I can tell you: if you want to be a star, then your acting skills are already okay. All you need to do is work hard to finish the film, and then you can leave. Find a PR to do an interview with you, get in a magazine, shoot a color page, and then shoot every year to keep up the appearance rate - your career will be good for at least 10 years. In the future, all you have to do is change boyfriends every day, have parties, and you can make a lot of money. ”

"But as an actor, you have to have good enough acting skills. Acting skills are honed, not created out of thin air, as an actor, you have to sharpen yourself. Spacey looked at Theron's expression and knew he was not wrong, "I understand your thoughts. Many actors are like this: they think that what they get is what they take for granted, and if the director refuses to give them more, they will be dissatisfied. The shots, the interviews, the media, the magazines, the onlookers, the staff who serve you, it's easy to give the illusion that you've succeeded – but is it a successful actor or a successful star? They didn't tell the difference. You have to know that the hype of stars is your ability, but your acting skills can only be improved by the director's continuous sharpening, have you thought about these carefully? ”

Theron's distress, Spacey can see clearly: he has been an actor for more than 20 years, and he has already seen a lot of small problems encountered by actors when they first debuted. Theron is a strong and intelligent person, but she also encounters all kinds of small problems, and when she encounters problems, she will be confused, and she will do the wrong thing at the instigation of someone with a heart, which is not uncommon.

"I know that everything I have now was given to me by Mr. Levy." Theron couldn't help but speak.

"But you're still not satisfied. I know what you're thinking: you think this is the second film you've made, it's the second film Nicholas has made, and in the audition, he chose you over anybody else, and you think he appreciates you enough, so you decide that he should be more tolerant of you, better for you. ”

"I'm not ......" Theron had only said half a sentence before she could no longer speak—she could not have said it again, her mind had already been seen through by the other party.

If this was someone else's movie, wouldn't Theron be so fidgety? If it was a movie shot by someone else, would you grit your teeth and insist and absolutely refuse to admit defeat? If it's a movie shot by someone else, why are you dissatisfied with getting the role of a heroine, and you are still dissatisfied with the director?

Definitely not - Theron knows very well how rare it is to have an opportunity in Hollywood, and to have such an opportunity, even if he does his best, he will work hard.

But why is he so dissatisfied with Levy? Is it really because he has higher requirements for Levy, as Spacey said?

Maybe that's really the case. From the first time I met him to the present, he has been saying that he has very high expectations for himself. He said that he would become a good actor, a top actor, but when filming, he refused to give himself even a chance to be tolerant, he obviously acted hard, but he never cared - if such a thing was done by another director, Theron could grit his teeth and get through, but this is the first director in Hollywood to show enough favor to her, and he really treats himself, which makes it difficult for Theron to accept.

They should have been Quentin and Uma Thurman, Woody Allen and Diane Keaton, Hitchcock like the blondes, who should have been his muse, who appreciated himself and who had always worked hard for his films.

But Levi's attitude, but he always seemed to be dissatisfied with her. It made Theron feel a lot of the time that, perhaps, in Levy's eyes, she was just an ordinary small character who could be replaced at any time, which made her very hurt and the most difficult to let go.

People always crave more things that don't belong to them - Theron thinks that the director will value herself, but now she only uses herself, and this is the source of her dissatisfaction.

This kind of psychology can be forgiven when it is secretly lurking, but once it is put in front of it, it seems a little too ridiculous: when did Levy say that she must be his queen actor? My own thoughts are just my own careful thoughts.

However, if these careful thoughts were true, how good would it be......

"Charlie, you should understand that Nicholas is strict with you, not because he doesn't like you, but because he wants you to be a better actor - a good actor can make a good movie, and he is responsible for the movie and for your career." Seeing that Theron regretted it a little, Spacey continued.

"But can I be an actor?" After a while, Theron spoke again, "Do you think I can do it?" ”

"Charlie, you have this potential." This time, unlike the half-joking with a smile just now, Spacey spoke very seriously, "You are very invested in this movie, and it is the attitude that an actor should have." You also have your own talent, you dare to try different ways to perform, and you dare to add your own interpretation when performing, which is very good. You have what it takes to be a good actor, don't doubt yourself. You're only 22 years old, and you're already the heroine of a movie with an investment of more than 10 million, if you don't have talent, will Nicholas choose you? When I was 22 years old, I acted in a drama for the first time, and your talent is much stronger than mine. ”

Theron smiled bitterly, of course she could hear it, and Spacey was really relieved to her, "But you must have never encountered a situation like mine, and you couldn't raise your head when you were scolded by the director." ”

"I've been acting for 30 years, don't feel that my acting career is full of success, how can such a monotonous and boring life run through 30 years." Spacey shook his head, "It's just that I have the biggest difference from you, you know what?" ”

Theron shook his head.

"When the director finished scolding me, I would take the initiative to go to the director, find a way to make him angry, and then take the initiative to tell him what my understanding of the role is, try to communicate with him, understand where my shortcomings are, and then try to show the effect he wants according to the director. In every movie, the director has the connotation that he wants to express, and if you want to perform well enough, you must understand the director's ideas. You have talent, you need someone to guide it out. ”

"Can the director help me?"

"As a director, if you don't even have the ability to help actors, what kind of director is it?" Spacey laughed, he knew he had led Theron in the right direction, "Nicholas can help you, trust me, you can't go for him." ”
