"Gotcha! You walk slowly. ”

took the one-yuan red ticket handed by the guest, respectfully sent the guest away, and picked up the book "The Self-cultivation of Actors" on the shoe-shine toolbox and read it again.

In the mid-fifties, actors such as Marlon Brando, James Dean and Montgomery Clift,

Together, they tacitly break the old acting methods of American cinema, and their performances are emotionally driven and explosive.

All these methods of acting were proposed decades ago, and the film performance revolution for directors and actors began to be brewed on the stage of the Russian Experimental Theater early in film history.

Early stage performances all had a distinctly illustrative performance style, in which the essence of the performance technique was thought to convey the story in a pompous symbolic performance.

And during this period, in this film garden, an actor and director named Stanislavsky proposed a revolution in this phenomenon.

In realist plays, some of the basic assumptions behind the symbolic structure of the performance:

By what do we rely on to determine that an actor's performance style or habit can most truly convey the concept,

After all, our personal way of exploring the world is very internal, quiet and often contemplative.

The challenge with this new approach to acting is to focus on the actors, to inspire them to become emotionally strengthened animals, to make them forget about acting and believe that they are the characters in the play.

The performances also began to convey off-string sounds, and the actors were encouraged to incorporate the "subconscious" into the performance.

This is one of the most important performance genres that has been handed down and laid the foundation for film and television in later generations: the experiential school.

And many film and television scholars, in order to show their respect for this innovator, they call it: Si's performance system.

In addition to the experiential school, there are also two major schools prevalent in the garden of film and television, namely: method school and expression school.

American acting teachers such as Lee Strasberg, Stella Adler, Sanford Meisner, etc.,

All of them have adopted and developed part of the Si performance system in teaching, and passed on this method of crafting acting skills to the new generation of students.

Thus a group of method actors was born, which is the origin of method school.

If you want to explain these two types of performance, the way is also very simple, such as experientialism:

When Duan Yihong was filming the movie "Xi Wei", he completely regarded himself as the murderer, so much so that after filming the murderous scene,

He cried bitterly for half an hour, on the verge of a mental breakdown, and afterwards he said that he felt that he was Xi Wei at that time, and that he had killed those children.

And the other Nicolas Cage who is far away in Hollywood (Marvel Ghost Rider, a skeleton man with a whole body on fire, the one on a motorcycle).

is also an actor who advocates experiential school, and when he played a soldier with a wounded face in the movie "Birdman",

In order to feel the pain, he extracted two teeth without anesthetic, and wrapped a bandage around his head for two weeks.

When starring in the movie "Vampire's Kiss", in order to deduce the state of madness, he directly chewed a large live cockroach.

The advantage of this system is that there is no trace of performance, everything is a sincere emotion that bursts out from the actor's heart.

The disadvantages are:

It takes an actor's extreme acting talent because it's hard to fully immerse yourself in the role and believe that everything you're performing is real.

Another disadvantage is that it is very deep and difficult to play. (Such as Jigong You Benchang, it is difficult to surpass after the late bloomer, and escapes into the empty door).

Methodological system: It is the (enhanced version) experiential school after the transformation of American film and television performance,

At the heart of the two, the difference is that methodology allows actors to replace emotions.

For example, when a straight man plays a "give", the method can imagine the opponent actor as a woman to perform.

Experientialism, on the other hand, requires the actor to find a good impression of the male in his heart, so as to amplify the performance.

(In the movie "Lan Yu", Liu Ye and Hu Jun are experiential actors, after the filming,

The director suggested that the two should not meet within a year, otherwise they would bear the consequences, because the director himself is "giving",

So I know best that this kind of emotional outburst will invade without hesitation. ）

In the United States, there are many great gods of methodism.

For example: Marlon Brando (The Godfather), Daniel Day-Lewis (New York), Robert De Niro (The Godfather 2), Jack Nicholson (The Shining).

Of these methodist gods, the craziest of them is Daniel de Lewis.

When he played a disabled person in the film "My Left Foot", he refused to play during the whole filming.

has been nested in a wheelchair, people are fed when eating, and people need to carry up and down the steps, and the angry crew members scolded.

When he starred as Lincoln in the movie "Lincoln", he asked the crew to call him "Mr. President".

Before filming the film "The Last Mohican", this thing ran away to the deserted wilderness and lived alone for several months,

He learned to fish, hunt, and eventually even built an Indian canoe with his bare hands.

For the audience, excellent methodist actors are the guarantee of the quality of the film, but for the crew, they are sometimes really unbearable.

For example, Richard Harris, who played the old headmaster in "Harry Potter 1", when filming the movie "Rebel Ship Blood",

In order to go deep into the role, he insisted on not taking a bath for a long time, and the crew members complained to the producer because of his salted fish taste.

And he only used the sentence "I am a method actor" to make the producer speechless.

Expressionism, compared with the above two genres, is relatively restrained.

The core idea of this genre is that acting is acting, and the actor should be separated from the character.

They first construct a "character image" in their hearts by specializing in scripts, and at the same time, the expressionists do not advocate subconsciously living in the situation, but "jumping out" to grasp and design.

Oscar-winning actor Uncle Phoenix once said in an interview that before he starred in "Joker", he spent several months studying the characteristics of sick laughing patients.

In the diary, digging and shaping the inner clown image in order to enter the performance state more quickly is the technique of expressionism.

After a lot of talk, there is no difference between high and low performance factions.

An actor who is at the pinnacle of any type of performance method, and an actor may also apply a variety of acting techniques when performing.

In fact, the most speechless among the actors are those two-knife players.

When I first started the machine, I was determined to be an experiential school, and I patted and found that I was not hot enough, and I planned to switch to the method school.

But in fact, he is a traffic filter with no acting skills, and in the end, the above remarks are not aimed at a certain person, please do not sit down.

……

It was getting late, and the capital had already entered the east.

The howling cold wind blew on his face, and Yu Yanqiao rode the twenty-eight bars trembling and moved forward little by little.

As I passed by the film academy, the dim incandescent lights fell on the concrete road, and a man with a scruffy beard and a leather jacket squatted in front of the academy like a homeless man, snorting a cigarette.

Whew...

Pushing the car over, Yu Yanqiao's hands were frozen and stiff, he took out the front door of the bag and scattered, lit it against the cold wind, spit out white smoke, and said:

"What are you doing here all the time?"

The man in the leather jacket took a sharp puff of his cigarette, pondered for a moment, and muttered:

"I don't know!"

"Come on, I'll go first, it's too cold!"

Yu Yanqiao stepped on the cigarette butt and rode his bicycle in the direction of the rental house.
