1824.Chapter 1824 1824
Russell is not a rookie who has just entered the industry, he has starred in many works in Australia before coming to Hollywood, he not only has acting talent, but also knows how to keep learning, and more importantly, the rich life experience from childhood to adulthood has made him very smart, and he is also very spiritual in the process of acting.
So, when Russell heard Hugo's words, he fell into thought.
In fact, before today, Russell's performance has always been commendable, but he has recently entered a misunderstanding, plus he has a worship mentality for Hugo, and it is naturally difficult to let go of his hands and feet when playing against Hugo. What Russell needs is relaxation, and focus, to get back to his previous state, and that's enough.
Hugo thought for a moment and spoke again, "Russell, I need your attention. We all know what the hell is going on in this scene, I slept with your woman, if you are a man, come out with some guts, there is no reason to justify, the facts have become established facts, unless you feel like a coward, then I naturally don't mind. ”
Hugo's words are unhurried, calm and powerful, little by little to awaken the anger in Russell's heart, leaving aside the details of the performance, putting aside the spirit of study, showing the most real reaction in the body.
Although this scene is a rivalry between Hugo and Russell, the real initiative is actually in Russell's hands - just like Hugo's previous rivalry with Kevin.
Bud falls in love with Lynn, and Lynn falls in love, but Ed has a heart for Lynn, jealousy, love, and desire. At the same time, it is also a temptation deliberately shown by Lynn under the threat of the mastermind behind the scenes. Confused, so Ed and Lynn had a night of dew. Water. Marriage. Of course, all of this was recorded in photographs by the people behind the scenes. Later, the mastermind skillfully leaked the photo to Bud, so Bud, who was furious, first found Lynn to confront him, and then found Ed, who had just discovered the true face of the mastermind.
On the one hand, Ed hopes to work with Bud to uncover the true face of the mastermind behind the scenes, and he also realizes that Lynn is a trap; But on the other hand, Bud didn't want to listen to Ed's explanation at all, so he came up and countered violence with violence, and began to beat Ed frantically, and Ed, who was a weak scholar, was almost powerless in the face of Bud's violence.
In fact, the difficulty of filming this scene is very difficult.
Bud is in charge of the violence, but after the inner confusion and impulses are fully released, he gradually begins to realize the truth of the problem, and the transformation after the mixed tastes needs to be shown; Ed tried to control it, but he couldn't find a respite in the storm, and most importantly, the fear and excitement of discovering the truth swept over him, and countless chaotic thoughts almost suffocated him.
And all of this happened in the course of a violent beating.
Therefore, before filming, under the leadership of the action director, Hugo and Russell rehearsed six times successively to ensure that the two people would not make mistakes in their positioning and alignment, and they also had a clear understanding of the position of the camera lens. At the same time, Curtis also left the two actors with enough time to brew their emotions before the performance.
But it turned out to be a series of errors, Russell was never able to get into the groove, and he couldn't really throw a fist at Hugo, which made the shooting extremely difficult.
In the movie, there are scenes such as real beatings and real slaps, which are always the most difficult to film. If the actor is too heavy, it may cause the relationship between friends and cooperative relations to become awkward in reality; The actor is too light, and the effect shown by the camera cannot be realistically presented. How to master the scale is a difficult challenge for the actors.
Russell, who was standing in front of Hugo, got rid of his thoughts at this time, and looked at Hugo with some astonishment, and the anger in the depths of his eyes was quietly rolling. Hugo knew that Russell had enough power to break out, but he couldn't control it accurately at this time, so he needed to channel this conflict correctly.
Hugo's mind turned, his expression regained his composure, and his tone was slightly suppressed, "So, you're a waste and don't know anything except waving your fists." Do you think you're righteous when your partner is a piece of garbage who killed himself and killed a good citizen who had no intention of resisting in order to protect his non-existent reputation? Do you think you are noble? No, you're just a pawn, and I think you know better than I do deep down. ”
Hugo spoke at a pace that was not hurried or slow, without much additional emotion, just a little bit of mockery, and his facial expression was always calm, with a cold and high attitude. This is Ed, not Hugo. This is the relationship between Ed and Budd, which is why Bud has always disliked Ed - and even hates Ed, he feels that Ed has always been too high-minded and arrogant, and their most cherished friendship and comrade-in-arms are nothing more than an exchange of interests in Ed's eyes, and Ed is not even as good as the slick Jack.
Hugo is guiding Russell into the Bard state, he doesn't deliberately mention the name, blurs the line between reality and drama, and substitutes Russell into the state with his own state.
"Now, I slept with your woman again, how do you feel? You can imagine that picture. I did it on purpose, I know she's your woman, but I don't mind at all. These words were not Ed's style, but Bud's style in mind. There are many reasons why Ed and Lynn have a relationship, and it is difficult to explain them. But in Bard's mind, this is clearly not the case. Therefore, Hugo is going to create the Ed in Bud's mind at this time. Hugo leaned forward slightly, and this sense of oppression came to his face, and he helped his gold-rimmed glasses, and said word by word, "Why? Because, she ...... It is...... A...... Prostitute. Female ......"
"Shut up! Shut up! Russell's big fist swung straight up, raised high, and stopped above Hugo's head, but at the last moment it stopped the car. Russell's eyes were bloodshot, and the anger that swam on the verge of losing control was eating away at his sanity, but he kept it under control.
Hugo raised his head and looked at Russell's fist, breathed a sigh of relief, and then resumed his tone and said, "Russell, I need you to release this anger, everything is serious, as soon as my eyes are closed, this scene is over, don't continue to toss." I mean really, you really beat me, beat me hard. After Hugo said this, three lines appeared on his forehead, why did he feel as if he was a masochist?
But Hugo still controlled this thought very well, and continued, "The anger in my heart is completely released, and I use your method to perform, this is the right way." After Hugo finished speaking, he looked at Russell's eyes carefully, and he could still faintly see the struggles and contradictions of Russell's self-control, which were still not fully released.
Hugo thought about it, Russell has been studying and learning by himself for the past few days, and his thoughts must be relatively chaotic, and it is not easy to suddenly ask him to return to his original track like this. Russell needed an opportunity. "Russell, wouldn't it be better if I punched you directly?"
Russell couldn't help but be stunned, looked carefully, but found that Hugo's eyes did not mean to joke, and said with complete sincerity, "Maybe." Russell spoke, then gritted his teeth tightly, "Okay, no problem, you try to punch me, and I'll ......"
"Bang!" Before Russell could finish his words, Hugo suddenly burst into his right fist and slammed it into Russell's cheek. Russell was caught off guard, the whole person stumbled and hit the closet next to him, the muffled sound of the fist and the subsequent chaotic sound stunned everyone in the audience, almost no one expected such a scene, and thought that Hugo and Russell had clashed, and everyone flocked to it in an instant.
But Hugo walked towards Russell with his fist, grabbed Russell's collar, gritted his teeth and said, "Do you need me to punch you again?" ”
Russell squeezed a word out of his tightly closed teeth, "No." Then he pushed Hugo away hard, and the huge force smashed directly on Hugo's chest, making Hugo push back two steps, and Russell himself stood up directly, staring at Hugo viciously, his eyes full of anger.
Hugo turned to look at everyone and made a gesture of movement, "Now it's time to start a new attempt." ”
Everyone was stunned, and finally looked at Curtis, Curtis waved his hand, and the entire crew quickly returned to their positions and re-entered the shooting.
Ed sat in the archive room to check the information, he discovered the secret of a mastermind, and at the same time connected all the cases in the past period, at this time the door of the archive room was opened. Ed looked up, it was Bud, "You're just in time, come and take a look at this." ”
Bud was silent, but the anger in his eyes burned like flames, and he walked to his desk one step at a time, silent, like a bloody messenger from hell. He raised his left hand and showed Ed a picture of Ed and Lynn making out, and the calmness of his facial expression only made his anger even more terrifying.
Ed looked up and saw the picture, he couldn't help but breathe, his pupils suddenly widened, first panicked, then worried, then understood, but then fear swept over, "Wait." Ed stood up, all the mixed emotions rushing in, causing his lips to lose moisture and become dry.
But without waiting for Ed to continue to explain, a wave of air whistled by, and then Bud's fist slammed into his left cheek, and the ferocious impact suddenly invaded, he only felt as if his entire cheek was about to fall apart, and he could even feel the impact of his teeth beginning to move, and then his whole body flew out, and hit the file box by the window, only to feel dizzy, and the whole world began to spin, but before he could refocus, A strong black shadow slammed into it like a Mars that was enough to crush the Earth.
