Chapter 44 044
Hugo's performance was so wonderful, so wonderful that the on-site staff couldn't help but admire it, not only because the worst actor of the new Golden Raspberry Award broke out with amazing energy, showing everyone a good show. With the classic repertoire of Rou Kegang, but also because of Hugo's wonderful acting skills, the audience was astonished.
In this scene, Al's performance is also a pinnacle. It completely released the inner pain and entanglement of the lieutenant colonel, so it is not as deep as the inner entanglement of the previous scenes, but it is the type of drama that Al is best at. Make the most of his strengths. In the face of such Al, Hugo was not afraid, and vividly deduced Charlie's psychological transformation when facing the lieutenant colonel. Standing on an equal footing and completing the reversal, this series of psychological changes was perfectly displayed by Hugo in just four minutes.
I have to say that Hugo and Al's confrontation just now was absolutely stunned.
In addition, Hugo's interpretation of Charlie is so delicate and so real, the fear of death, the fragility of the lieutenant colonel, and the worries of the future are clearly visible in those amber eyes, and the slightly trembling lips are even more visible. It is to reveal the inner youth and fear, but the sonorous force and firmness in the words burst out infinite sparks. This extreme contradiction is integrated into this four-minute performance, which brings the integrity of Charlie's character. , goodness, weakness, principle, and beauty are fully presented.
This time Hugo's performance can not only see the youthful and impulsiveness of young people, but also can see the talent and old way of being an actor, which is really admirable.
Facing the absolute acting school like Al, Hugo gave uncompromising and wonderful acting skills in this scene. The two actors showed their enthusiasm incisively and vividly, endowed the characters with infinite vitality, and made the spark of this scene like fireworks. Just as proudly blooming.
Martin's face full of joy directly expressed his true thoughts. Al, who had exhausted his physical strength during the performance, looked at Hugo with relief. In the scene just now, Al also tried his best to release himself. It was the first time that Al had this feeling after the filming of "Scent of a Woman": the pleasure of meeting his opponents allowed Al to let go of his hands and feet and threw himself into the performance. Hugo's talent was verified in the scene just now.
The staff who were questioning Hugo's abilities five minutes ago now closed their mouths, and they had to rub their chins to avoid being too surprised and irreparably dislocated. Hugo's performance is so wonderful, wonderfully unreasonable, wonderfully flawless, wonderfully shocking.
Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Actor? What is that? It's just an award to entertain the public. Hugo's brilliant performance like Pianhong is real. Even if three consecutive works have failed before, Hugo still uses his own strength to prove it at this moment. The success of "Dead Poets Society" and all the works before it is not a flash in the pan at all, and Hugo's acting talent is still very dazzling.
Hugo in front of him defeated all the doubts of the on-site staff with practical actions, and they were willing to believe that when the movie was released, there would be many people who would be shocked, including the reporter Nicholas who just visited the crew not long ago.
The staff who complained about Hugo just now are now a little embarrassed and ashamed of their gossip. From the eyes they exchanged with each other, they can see "amazing", and quietly they seem to have formed a relationship. Alliance, because they remembered that the media and audiences are not optimistic about Hugo now, as long as they think that they will experience the situation they have just now when "Scent of a Woman" is released in the future. , surprise, jaw-dropping, this kind of confusion is really mixed, thinking of this, the joy in the hearts of these staff can't be restrained.
But Hugo didn't have time to pay attention to the people and things around him at this time. He was seriously savoring the essence of the scene just now.
Just now, Hugo entered an excellent performance state, just like the epiphany in the Xianxia novel, suddenly entering a realm, and then perfectly exerting his own strength, even reaching a level of strength that he could not peep at ordinary times. Hugo is trying to reminisce about that feeling, and only if he fully understands it can his acting really take it to the next level.
It's a pity that Hugo seems to have caught something, but he can't feel it clearly. Al's sentence "Don't think about acting, think about the character" kept circling in his head. At the last moment, this sentence was vividly shining in his brain, but at this moment Hugo was thinking hard: what should the so-called character be like? Grasp the essence.
Every character has a story, which is inevitable. A director who has a strong overall view can even tell a lot of settings to a passerby, so that the whole story has endless possibilities. However, how to sum up a bright spot from a character's life, then combine it with himself, and then show it through acting skills, it is not so simple.
After Hugo came out of the state of epiphany just now, it seemed that he was infinitely close to the answer, but there was still a layer of window paper left. This made Hugo feel unbearable. He knew that after piercing the window paper, his understanding of acting could be further improved, so that he could become a real actor from a pure imitation state, but he couldn't pierce it. This kind of feeling It's really good and bad.
However, Hugo was relieved quickly. He realized that this was the first time he had realized after becoming an actor for five years, and it was achieved in less than a month after he passed through. This is really a joy. Congrats. If there is no crossing, there will be no chance to "smell the fragrance and know a woman", and there will be no chance to play opposite Al Pacino, then Hugo may continue to be trapped in the level of imitators and lost. Now that Hugo has gotten his first glimpse into acting, it's something to celebrate, so there's no need to get frustrated.
Of course, the reason why Hugo was relieved so quickly was also because Martin did not give Hugo much time to reflect. Although the shooting of the scene just now went very smoothly, Martin still had to make up a lot of shots. Before this scene was mainly shot of Charlie, Al has always been by the side to help with the scene, and now it is the first to complete all the scenes of Charlie's scene, and then the scene of the lieutenant colonel will be shot, which is Hugo's turn. Played for Al.
Today's task remains daunting.
Although the shooting was very difficult, Hugo, who had found the feeling, was obviously able to grasp the situation, so the shooting was no longer the stumbling situation at the beginning of today. Moreover, Hugo has been constantly pondering the state after entering the film during the filming process. The opportunity to play against Al is not very often, and the opportunity to film such a difficult and explosive scene is not very often. Hugo still thinks Take good chances.
The crew continued filming from morning to night. Finally, Martin finally called to stop work, but Hugo had no plans to end it. He followed behind Al and Martin, obviously a non-smoker, but insisted on following. The two went to the balcony to chat. Originally, some of the staff planned to ask Hugo to have dinner together, but when they saw Hugo perseveringly asked Al all kinds of questions, they knew that Hugo was unwilling to give up the great opportunity to study, and they could only sigh. Hugo's diligence, and then packed up the equipment and left the luxury suite.
Joseph looked at Hugo like this and said that he was not surprised that it was definitely fake, but with the foreshadowing of the previous period, it was not so difficult for him to accept it. In any case, Hugo's change is a good thing. If Hugo is willing to put in enough sweat, Joseph believes that with his talent, he will definitely be able to create a world of his own in the field of actors, and as Hugo's agent Man, the task on his shoulders also gradually increased.
In the past year, Hugo has been in a state of decadence due to the drag of the "Hudson Eagle", coupled with the continuous bad encounters, so even Joseph is habitually lazy. . But Joseph knew that things were different now, and he had to be proactive in paving the way for Hugo.
After that, the crew of "Smell the Scent and Know a Woman" stayed in New York for three more days, then Long Island, and then the main force moved to Boston. After filming there, they finally arrived in New Jersey, where the preparatory school for the film will be filmed. part. In the preparatory school, Hugo's Charlie becomes the protagonist, and he will play the main role, but this is not a difficult thing for Hugo, who has experienced the test of the previous four weeks.
It is worth mentioning that the actor who played the important role of George in the movie was actually Philip - Seymour - Hoffman (Philip. Seymour. Hoffman). Philippe is the same age as Hugo. He is an actor who graduated from a major and graduated from New York University (New. York. University) with a major in drama, but he did not appear on the big screen until this year. The third work, and all of them are supporting roles.
However, Philip's future acting career has gradually grown into a Hollywood backbone, "The. Talented. Mr. Ripley", "Magnolia", "Mission Impossible 3" and other works are all in the works. You can see his figure. Of course, what really made him famous is "Capote", the work that made him the best actor in the Oscars. This actor can be called a character actor. Their own feelings about real life are integrated into the characters, so that the characters show complex and changeable characteristics.
But Philip, who is just fledgling now, does not have such excellent acting skills. He is a little impetuous, full of youthful liveliness and youthfulness, and his acting skills are even a little greasy, but Hugo has noticed a different kind of fun: looking at the future. It's really interesting to see a successful actor looking young when he just debuted, and it's no less fun than performing against Al.
