In the long course of history, countless talented artists and scientists are victims of mental illness, because they can often see the world that ordinary people can't see, and burst out infinite inspiration to benefit mankind. But more often, in the eyes of others, they are just a bunch of lunatics, and even people will not hesitate to smash them with stones to divide the boundaries.

John Nash was one of the victims. His talent, his wisdom, and his intelligence made him discover game theory, but it also made him suffer from schizophrenia, but he was regarded as a monster. Even the Fields Medal and the Nobel Prize have repeatedly dispelled the intention of awarding him because of John’s illness. It was not until 1994 that the Nobel Prize was delayed-and by this time John had basically recovered. Fewer relapses.

"Mental illness = madman", this misconception has dominated people’s ideological topics for a long time. This has caused countless families to endure tremendous pain, and even caused many parents to abandon their children and take the mentally ill patients one step further. One step into the abyss.

I remember that in 1975, a "flying over the lunatic asylum" was born, but the deeper meaning of this film was "the loss of freedom is true madness", and it did not make people aware of the pain and struggle of mental illness. Now, Allen has put forward a more far-reaching but more realistic and more important idea. In addition to films that pursue freedom like "Trumen's World", a story similar to John Nash is also needed to tell people the cruel reality.

Allen’s idea is correct, and Hugo is indeed one of the most suitable candidates for this project.

Hugo once suffered from schizophrenia during the filming of "Death Row". Even just thinking about the pain of tearing the soul is enough to make people shudder. If you do it again, Hugo is not sure if he is. Be able to have a strong enough mind to find your true self a second time, instead of getting lost in the endless darkness. Even more frightening is that this kind of pain still affects his life.

Although Hugo is far less painful than John Nash, John has endured the pain of schizophrenia and the strange eyes around him for more than ten years; but Hugo has enough experience to empathize, stepping in the dark The confusion, struggle, and pain in the mire manifested.

In addition, in Hugo's long career as an actor, he has challenged many different types of roles, but he has never played a real schizophrenic patient. Not long ago, Hugo completed two works of different themes and types of "Trumen's World" and "The Sixth Sense of Supernatural", and once again made progress in acting. However, even for today's Hugo, John Nash can still be regarded as a difficult challenge.

Just like Irene Enos of "Female. Devil", Hugo is not sure that he can perfectly interpret the state of John Nash. This kind of challenge is like a brand new limit, waiting for Hugo to hit and break, and truly understand the Zen state of "looking at mountains is like mountains, looking at water is like water".

Even if Allen just said a few words, Hugo had already set off a violent rainstorm in his mind. The excitement and excitement started to rush in his blood quickly, and it almost made Hugo unable to bear it, wanting Take this project immediately. This made Hugo himself feel a little funny—especially when he understood the uncertainty of the adaptation of the script from 2001 to 1998, he was so impulsive, and he became more and more black humor.

In fact, this is a very magical thing. For Hugo, he has now reached the peak of an actor, from trophy to box office, from word of mouth to popularity, and even from actor to producer, he has achieved full bloom. It's as if a person has climbed Mount Everest. After looking at the small mountains, there is a crisis of continuing to strive for goals, and it is often easy to get lost-even the highest peak of the earth has been conquered by oneself. So, what is the next step?

After "Independence Day", Hugo became a producer of "L.A. Confidential" and entered a new field. As a producer, Hugo still has many things to learn. But as an actor, logically speaking, he should not have any sense of challenge. But the facts are just the opposite. First it was "Trumen's World", then the "Sixth Sense of Supernatural", and then to John Nash now, Hugo's desire for acting is still agitated, the kind of eagerness to invest The excitement and excitement in the performance were really rare.

Coming to Hugo's current position, he can still maintain his hunger for acting, which is almost impossible. But it is precisely this hunger that has brought Hugo to the heights it is today. He is still able to remember this feeling of hunger firmly. This is Hugo’s sanity and sobriety. This is Hugo’s ability and level, as well as Hugo has reached the cause that no one else can reach.

He hopes to continue to maintain this hunger.

He wants to play John Nash, he wants to challenge the schizophrenic, he wants to tell people the true face of mental illness, and he wants to let people really stand on the stand of the mentally ill and see their world through his performance. , He wants to push his limits again to realize one after another impossible... He wants to take this project.

Although the old foxes such as Robert Iger, Shirley Lansing, and Kevin Burns know Hugo well, they always know how to use means to achieve their goals; but those who really understand Hugo do not need means and With scheming, you can easily impress Hugo. Just like Alan, just a "Vanity Fair" magazine, Hugo has already begun to boil over.

"Hugo, I hope you will play John Nash, because I know you want to bring truth to everyone." Allen has always known that Hugo is very repulsive of excessive pursuit and excessive attention, but Hugo has never forgotten Own responsibility, as a top superstar-even a unique superstar in the entire film history, Hugo has always insisted on using his influence to contribute to charity.

In the past year, the Sally Foundation has successfully helped hundreds of people; the twisted tour has promoted the rock industry, even the most stubborn, radical and extreme loyal fans have to give a thumbs up; The impact of the "Seven Deadly Sins" on the uncrowned king, the torture of the death penalty by the "Death Row", and the flogging of entertainment to death by "Trumen's World", Hugo is relying on his own power to change this society as much as possible.

Hugo is not a superman, and he has no intention of becoming a superman, but he clearly knows that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, and he is taking this responsibility. Therefore, Allen brought the story of John Nash to Hugo because he knew Hugo and because he was a friend of Hugo.

Allen has been looking at Hugo’s expression. He can see the positive emotions in the thoughtful expression, which makes Allen understand that he is achieving his goal step by step. "Hugo, I don’t just hope You starred in John Nash, and I also hope you will take this project, because I can’t find anyone in Hollywood who is more suitable for this work than you.”

"Take this project?" Hugo woke up from his thoughts, but didn't understand Alan's meaning.

"I have bought the adaptation copyright of the John Nash biographical novel "Beautiful Mind (a... written by Silvia Nasar (.nasar), but the project has not yet been approved. I know that many film companies All are interested in this project, but I hope to give it to you. You are the only candidate in my mind." Allen explained that this is the real important thing today, "I hope you will complete the adaptation of the script, and then Take up the responsibilities of a producer, from director to actor, all to you to choose, including the partner company is also up to you to choose. Of course, your role as John Nash is my only requirement."

Hugo looked at Allen in a bit of astonishment, but Allen looked at Hugo without evasiveness, her azure blue eyes calm and calm.

Hugo could read too many emotions from those eyes, which made his heart heavy, because he knew exactly how important Alan’s trust was.

Although Hugo has been the producer of the three works of "L.A. Confidential", "Perfectly Perfected" and "Sixth Sense of Supernatural", he is still relatively junior, and large-scale production companies are still unwilling to be fully qualified. Decentralization, at this point, Hugo still has a gap compared with the bigwigs such as Steven Spielberg and George Lucas. But now, Allen has handed over the entire project of John Nash's biography to Hugo, which means that the success or failure of the work is completely maintained on Hugo's shoulders.

This trust Although not the first person to eat crabs, it is definitely the first person to jump off the cliff.

Hugo wanted to open his mouth and say something to refuse, but he couldn't say it, because he really liked the project very much. When he thought of playing the role of John Nash, Hugo felt very excited; thinking of being able to use his own hands to hold John Nash. The adaptation of the legendary life into a script, Hugo felt full of emotion.

Hugo also wanted to open his mouth to say something humble, but he stopped. Because he knows that instead of being humble and polite, he should focus all his energy on the project itself and truly deliver the perfect answer; even more because he knows that Allen's trust in him is unconditional, and his modesty is just a mask of a hypocrite.

Looking at Alan’s trusting eyes, Hugo finally nodded slightly, "Man, I won’t let you down." The confidence in the understatement overflowed, making people clearly feel Hugo’s urgency. And for sure.

Allen gave a big smile, "I know you won't."

In this way, in just 20 minutes, John Nash became the next project after Hugo ended the "Sixth Sense of Supernatural". Then, what will the Hugo version of John Nash look like? Woolen cloth?
