As soon as Joseph turned around, he saw Hugo standing at the door of the car, and Hugo was dressed as a police officer at this time. inspect the uniform, the clothes are ironed neatly, not even a trace of wrinkles; The hair is neatly groomed, and even the hair on the sideburns is combed perfectly. The whole body looked perfect, as if there was not a single blemish in sight.

Hugo is still the same Hugo, almost can't find too much difference, although the pair of gold wire glasses is not quite like Hugo's usual style, but it is not conspicuous, only feel that every detail of the overall shape is so "Hugo", but all the details are integrated but not Hugo. This may be the feeling that Hugo looks closest to himself in the movie after "before sunrise", but the actual effect is the opposite, the man in front of him looks almost completely different from Hugo, so strange.

At this time, a large group of people were bustling at the door of the RV, and the scene was very lively, including many reporters. Hearing the sound of the car door opening, everyone turned around, and then saw Hugo at the door.

Nicholas McLaan looked at Hugo in front of him and had a very strange feeling, he felt that Hugo looked very small and thin now, especially in that uniform, he looked even more ...... Weak and can't help but laugh and cry.

At this time, the corners of Hugo's mouth outlined a polite and kind smile, a shallow arc, a gentleman's etiquette, everything was so accurate, as if it had been carefully arranged. But Nicholas saw it in his eyes, but there was an indescribable rejection, and he felt ...... felt that there was a smell of hypocrisy, and people couldn't help but want to frown, and when they turned around, they wanted to complain to their colleagues. However, this hypocrisy is not too obvious, but there is a faint unpleasant atmosphere, and the atmosphere of rigid, stubborn, and hypocritical false pedants flutters like nothing.

That's what I felt at first impression. Some people's first impression, even if they don't say anything, just gives people a sense of intimacy; Some people meet for the first time everything is perfect, gentlemen are polite, advance and retreat, but the sense of distance and hypocrisy lingers; Some people just need to meet each other to be disgusting, maybe it's a word, maybe it's a dress, maybe it's just a look.

Of course, it is true that first impressions can be deceiving, but many times, first impressions often determine the attitude and content of subsequent interactions and acquaintances. It's not so easy to change your first impression.

Hugo's first impression is mostly gentle, sunny and gentlemanly, which also leads many people to underestimate Hugo - especially the uncrowned kings, so they are repeatedly deflated by Hugo's hands. But today, Hugo is just a stop ahead, and that "first impression" is very bad, not only repulsive, but even indescribable disgust.

This actually makes no sense, because Hugo was standing at the door of the RV, without speaking or moving, and that first impression really shouldn't have such a huge deviation.

If someone pays close attention at this time, they will find that more than half of the crowd standing around the RV are frowning slightly, otherwise they are smashing their mouths, and the original enthusiastic attitude has shown signs of cooling down. The other half of the people who were not so careful or had more nerves were still noisy, and even began to stir because of Hugo's appearance.

Joseph naturally also observed the changes in Hugo, and he knew that Hugo had already substituted himself into the role, but after experiencing the "death row walk" - there were too few parts of the "Independence Day" to test his acting skills - this was the first time that Hugo really devoted himself to a role, and Joseph was still a little worried.

So, Joseph looked at Hugo with some nervousness, curious about his next move.

But then, Hugo lowered his head, straightened his shirt that he didn't need to tidy up at all, coughed lightly twice, and when he raised his head again, the smile on the corner of his mouth was gently outlined, looked at Joseph, and asked, "Joe, I shouldn't be late yet, right?" ”

Hugo is back.

Joseph could clearly feel that this was Hugo, which he was familiar with, which made Joseph breathe a sigh of relief, "No, there are still two minutes." ”

Hugo raised an eyebrow and said in a bit of a panic, "Oh no, I'm going to be late." Then he walked down quickly, looking left and right, but not knowing what he was looking at, Joseph followed closely, "On your left." Joseph knew that Hugo was looking for a location for the first scene.

Hugo came to his senses, and then walked briskly, followed by Joseph. At the same time, a large number of people came back to their senses and followed closely behind Hugo, and all kinds of voices came, "Hugo, what were you doing in the RV just now", "Did you just have friction with the crew?" "How are you feeling right now......

Nicholas didn't follow, but froze in place, thinking carefully, "Was I dazzled just now?" Because he only felt that Hugo had become different, but in the blink of an eye, Hugo returned to his original state, as if the "first impression" just now was just his illusion.

However, Nicholas looked left and right, and found that seven or eight people were left in place, and everyone's expressions were full of doubt, and even James Rattle still had a look on his face that he had seen a ghost. Nicholas knew, not his own delusions.

"Acting!" This idea suddenly crashed into Nicholas's mind, and everything was explained in an instant, Hugo who had just come out of the RV was obviously not the real Hugo, but a character in "L.A. Confidential". Hugo was in the RV just now, just figuring out the role.

Although Nicholas has heard many professionals lament the excellence of Hugo's acting skills, not only "death row walk", but also in previous works, Hugo's aura and talent in film works have repeatedly amazed; But it's only today that Nicholas really feels it: because he saw it firsthand!

More often than not, they just see the finished film, see the actor inject soul into a character in the movie, but it's hard for them, as the audience, to see the effort that the actor puts into the acting process. But just now, he saw the subtle but deep soul changes, to be precise, he couldn't even see the specific performance changes and traces, but Hugo's whole person brought a completely different feeling, which was simply amazing. Nicholas had no idea that Hugo's control of the performance had become so delicate and precise.

Nicholas just wants to scream with excitement! After realizing what he had just witnessed, Nicholas rushed forward excitedly, just wanting to ask for proof of his thoughts, and while running, he turned back to greet James and the others who were still stunned in place, "Quick, follow up!" Don't miss out! ”

James and the others didn't know what Nicholas meant, but they still followed with a look at each other.

After experiencing the "Death Row Walk", Hugo's acting skills have indeed entered a whole new world, which is a very interesting process. The most basic thing for an actor is to enter and exit the play, how to quickly enter the performance state, and how to distinguish between reality and performance, which is the basic skill of any actor.

In the first stage, Hugo can easily enter and exit the play, leaving the best performance state for the camera, and even being able to bring the actors who perform in the same scene into the state together; After entering the second stage, Hugo became deeper and deeper into the play, began to ponder the details of controlling his performance, and truly entered the palace of methodist performance; In the third stage, Hugo tried to control the accuracy of the performance, and at the moment of entering the soul, he used the most accurate performance to convey the most realistic reaction, which was Hugo's initial attempt to integrate methodological acting and expressive acting.

The pinnacle of the third stage is "Death Row Prisoner Walk", in this movie, Hugo is almost completely out of control, there is no way to play after entering the play, the whole person is completely lost in the character, and even loses himself. The whole performance also reached the height of soul and character integration.

From the point of view of performance, Hugo is undoubtedly a success, as shown by the recognition of film critics and the affirmation of many awards; But from the actor's point of view, Hugo is a failure, because he can enter the play, but there is no way to play.

The British academic acting system has always advocated a theory, the so-called actor, it is impossible to play only one role, in the actor's career needs to play a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand different roles, this is the actor's own job, but also the actor's skill base.

This theory should be interpreted in such a way that an actor cannot only play one role in his life, otherwise he cannot be called an actor, but can only be called a "professional imitator of a certain role".

For example, the most famous Nicolas Cage, the work "Away from the Las Vegas" made him climb to the peak of his career, and his portrayal of Ben Sanderson has almost become a screen classic, but Nicholas's "facial paralysis acting" method has been applied to almost every one of his movies, and it looks like Ben Sanderson appeared in different movies. This is undoubtedly a failure for the actors, which is why critics have criticized Nicholas a lot.

It's a good thing that the actor is so involved in the play that he can't extricate himself, because the actor injects soul into the character, but if he has been like this all the time and never knows how to play, then the actor can't be regarded as a really good actor, just a professional for that particular role.

Therefore, an actor must not only be able to enter the play, but also be able to play, and be able to control the role, rather than being controlled by the role.

In the later stages of "Death Row Walk", Hugo was gradually able to re-act and control the rhythm of the performance in his own hands. Now, after opening the door to a new world, Hugo has entered the so-called fourth stage, "looking at the mountain or the mountain, and the water is still the water", allowing himself to enter the role state anytime and anywhere, re-separating performance and life anytime and anywhere, and returning to reality.

Therefore, the performance just now can only be regarded as a small test. Hugo could feel that excitement deeply, and it was good to be back on set.
