The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)

Chapter 93 Barcelona

When people talk about Spain, they always involuntarily think of words like passion, sunshine, olive oil, bullfighter, flamenco and carnival, and they seem to enjoy the comfort and beauty of vacation every day; and Barcelona is located on the Mediterranean coast. It is also known as the jewel of the Iberian Peninsula, attracting attention from all over the world.

In addition to sunny beaches and eye-catching beauties, this city has a world-renowned football club, a beautiful view of Mediterranean beaches, and Gaudí, the most ingenious building in the history of architecture. “The Sagrada Familia is still one of the most famous architectural wonders in the world.

Compared with the tourist-like Las Ramblas, Renly has always had a soft spot for the Gothic Quarter. It was originally an ancient Roman fortress village, named after many ancient Gothic buildings. Walking in this area, every building seems to tell its story, every street seems to be carved with traces of history, and the beating heart of the city can be touched by fingertips.

Everyone can find a way of their own, to feel Barcelona, ​​and then find a reason to stay.

The night falls slowly, and the summer heat remains in the air for a long time, but the moment that belongs to people has just begun. Department stores, clothing stores, etc. have closed, but the crowds on the streets are gradually increasing. The taverns and coffee houses are very lively. Even the Plaza Catalunya is full of people, laughing and talking in the streets. The alleys were tumbling, as if after a long day of sleep, the city had finally woken up.

Someone once joked that a day in Spain starts at nine o’clock in the evening. Lan Li deeply agreed with this.

“The day belongs to the tourists, and the night belongs to the Spaniards, right?” Lan Li looked at the excitement of the small street in front of him, took the sangria in his hand, and tasted the sour and sweetness. With the taste of alcohol.

However, in the small alleys that allow one car to pass, there are a dozen bars, and each bar is already full of customers at this time, even the steps at the door are no exception. Some people simply hold a bottle of beer, and Friends stood in front of the store and chatted freely, as if they didn’t care if they could find a place to stay.

The sky is full of stars reflected in the halo of brilliant and hazy street lights, and the tide is surging.

Rodrigue looked at the blue gift in front of him, the tapas in his hand could not be put in his mouth for a long time, hesitated, and finally put it back on the plate, “Yes, Spaniards always like nights, but mysterious but mysterious. Without losing the heat, people can’t help but want to take off the mask and reveal their true appearance.”

“This is the reason why Spanish beauties are always unique.” Lan Li’s smile slowly fell on the light curve of the corner of his mouth, and his cheeks were covered with a layer of alcohol, adding a touch of laziness.

Rodriguez opened his mouth, then closed it, then opened his mouth again, but closed it again. After repeating this several times, he finally did not hold back, “Lan Li, are you serious?”

“About what?” Lan Li raised his eyes and asked with a smile, “About beautiful women? Of course, I couldn’t be more serious.”

Rodriguez couldn’t change his breath, “I mean, you are going to lie in the coffin all day, are you serious?”

Just now Lanly asked in a serious manner how Rodrigued found the funeral home in Barcelona. He said that before the “Buried Alive” officially started shooting, he needed to make a field visit and plan to discuss with the funeral home and let him be nailed to death. Lie in the coffin all night. Rodrigue didn’t feel it at first, but after hearing it, the more he heard, the more he heard, he only felt that his jaw was about to be dislocated, but as the person involved, Lan Li was talking about the night in Spain! Rodrigue felt a little breathless.

“Of course.” Lan Li replied lightly. “If I were still in New York, I would go to the cemetery and lie down for a night. You know, bury the coffin under the ground and cover it with a thin layer of soil. On the first floor, no one wants to suffocate, would they?” Lan Li himself chuckled slightly, “However, now I am in Barcelona, ​​and my Spanish level is only average, I don’t want accidents. So, let’s forget about the cemetery. ”

Rodriguez looked at Lan Li with a grimace expression on his wrist, and couldn’t help pulling at his neckline, only to find that he was wearing a round-neck T-shirt tonight, and he didn’t strangle his neck at all, but why did he feel that his head was hypoxia?

“Renly, are you sure?” Rodriguez’s brain was in a mess. He knew that Renly was an excellent actor. This was the reason why he gave up Ryan Reynolds, but… but he didn’t think about it. Lan Li was so bold, even crazy.

Lan Li put down the Sangria in his hand and asked in a joking tone, “Rodrigo, have you ever had that kind of experience? You feel that you can’t breathe when you enter a narrow space, such as an elevator. , Or the bathroom. You know that this is a non-dangerous place, but deep in your heart, you are constantly roaring and shouting, wanting to escape desperately?”

Rodriguez felt dry and dry. The red wine-stained lips shone with a coquettish red luster, as if a vampire had just finished his meal. The dangerous dark breath made him swallow a mouthful of saliva and his heart was fast. The ground jumped, hitting the eardrum hard, and banging. “…” He couldn’t answer, he could only shook his head in denial.

“Neither did I.” Lanly’s lips were drawn into an elegant arc. “Look, when talking about soldiers on paper, we can understand this phenomenon. This is called claustrophobia. From a psychological perspective, it seems that all the reasons are the same. The head is right. But when you really fall into this kind of fear, all theories are useless, because the person involved has no way to control himself. The same is true for Paul in the’buried alive’.”

As Lan Li analyzed, Paul’s role is divided into two levels. If it only meets Ryan’s standards, Lan Li can now enter the performance. He has absolute confidence and can do better than Ryan; but if he wants to further enhance the quality of the performance, he must experience that kind of experience. Despair, the feeling of death with his hands pinched on his throat and slowly tightening, the feeling of being trapped in a square inch no matter how hard he struggles.

This kind of subtle and terminal difference is actually difficult to express in simple words. Even professional film critics and acting teachers may not be able to express it in words, but in the process of watching the movie, the delicate feeling of breaking through the constraints of the big screen , The movie-watching experience brought to the audience is completely different, and it can even be said to be a world of difference.

Expressionism and Methodism actually represent two understandings of people’s performance. The former represents the traditional academy viewpoint. They firmly believe that the so-called actors must be able to perform different roles. They can show through the methods, techniques and rhythm of acting. With different roles and different connotations, the boundary between reality and drama is very clear. They can enter and play at any time. Performance and personal life are two separate parts. Performance is a skill that is constantly honed, and the true power should be “one person with a thousand faces”.

The latter represents the new trend of the new era. They believe that playing a role must be integrated into it, blurring the boundary between reality and drama, or even crazy, abandoning all the constraints of skills, and truly let the power of the soul burst out the true meaning of performance. . Generally speaking, as long as an actor plays a role well, this is success. It is very likely that once he enters the play, he will never be able to play again. After a peak, there will be no wonderful performances, but it does not matter because he gives The life of that character, even if it is the only one.

Lanli is now trying to combine the two performance methods, to make the expressionist a little bit out of track and add more shock; at the same time, he puts some constraints on the methodist to make sure that the emotional performance can accurately outline the role.

Renly was not the first to try such an attempt. Al-Pacino also began to try after entering the final stage of his acting career. However, the effect is hardly satisfactory, because the core ideas of the two performance methods are Contradictory conflicts, one pays attention to control, the other pays attention to loss of control, the other pays attention to sober and the other pays attention to loss. Even Al, the performance is not satisfactory. The way of holding back and restraining his feet instead makes him lose his previous sharpness and texture, which is disappointing.

In addition to Al, there are many actors who have tried, hoping to break the shackles, UU reading www. Uukānshu.com became the first person to make history, but unfortunately, it was still a theoretical perfection until the rebirth of Lan Li.

Lan Li is not a genius, and the creation of history is too far away. He is not even sure whether his acting talent really exists, he just wants to explore his own style on the road of acting.

During the “Pacific War”, he spent most of the time in performances with expressionistic acting skills. There was only one scene. In the ninth episode, he witnessed the cry of a baby and embraced the death of a woman. For the first time, he really felt The struggle, pain, confusion and sadness deep in Jin’s heart are a collapse of faith. The heart is broken, but the outside is calm as water.

If given the opportunity, he would be very willing to talk to real Eugene Sledge. What he is even more curious is how Eugene came out in this way, how to return to the normal track of life, or Eugene never really Walked out.

In that scene, the combination of Expressionism and Methodism is very vague, as if a flash of inspiration, fleeting. The only thing that is certain is that Lan Li does feel the difference in performance. The balance node between loss of control and control is real. Therefore, this also strengthened his determination to continue trying!

“Buried alive” is such an opportunity; truly experiencing the emotion that Paul is about to be buried alive is the first step.

Rodriguez felt that his brain was a little overwhelming, “Len Li, I know you want to give a wonderful performance, which is what I hope. But… but this is just a movie with an investment of less than three million, you It’s only one hundred thousand dollars, God, it’s not worth that much.”

Lanli smiled heartily, “Man, so, are you suggesting that you want to raise my salary?”
