The classroom fell into silence.

Sammy firmly covered his mouth, took a peek at Betty, then raised his eyes and looked at Lan Li carefully, only to find that Lan Li hadn't raised his head at all, as if he hadn't noticed the sound in the classroom at all. Even her appearance was off the radar, still reading the books in front of her intently.

This made Sammy feel a little relieved, but then she felt a little bit lost. She has not greeted Lan Li so far, but she is still not sure. At this moment, she spoke rashly and disturbed Lan Li’s work status. is it suitable. So, Sammy turned his head to look at Betty, and cast his gaze to ask for help. Unfortunately, Betty kept his head down and his chin tightly against her chest. Only the light from the line of sight floated wildly. The rest of the reaction is not willing to give more.

Sammy slumped her shoulders in annoyance and dropped her head heavily, looking like a puppet doll with a broken wire. The vivid body language fully explained her disappointment at the moment. Little resentful eyes floated towards Betty, pouting, frowning, and sighing. The rich and varied expressions are really wonderful.

"If you are boring, you can start to read the script." There is always a murmur in the classroom, not to be noisy, there is always a turbulent airflow fluctuating, this kind of sound is actually more annoying than the noise, as if it is breathing The rhythm was interrupted.

If he was engrossed in the script reading, then Lan Li would not notice at all, but after the script reading temporarily reached one paragraph, the whole restlessness and confusion became particularly obvious. So Lan Li simply raised his head and looked at the two girls in front of him, and couldn't help laughing.

Sami’s body is full of fresh vitality, which seems to be inconsistent with the tone of the whole movie, but in fact it is just the opposite. That kind of quirky spirit is the most special shining point on Erica, and it’s a bit mischievous. , Somewhat cynical, even somewhat naive and romantic, this fifteen-year-old girl’s traits form a powerful sense of contradiction with the degeneration of the prostitutes, and then bring shocks. She is seeking Henry’s salvation, but at the same time she also saves Henry. .

Betty exuded a special temperament, with a trace of curiosity in her timidity, a trace of vitality in her sorrow, and a trace of urgency in her introversion. In this role, the main thread of the film’s gradual change, the child who grew up in the filth, breeds faint hope, longing to be able to break out of this quagmire, she found it in Henry, but this The ray of hope was gradually and gradually disappearing, and finally he chose a decisive way to bid farewell.

The script of "detachment" is a typical way of writing stage drama, and the relationship between the characters is profound.

Sarah, who is also a teacher, is a conscientious educator. She tried to save these children, but she couldn't find a way. The heavy pressure almost crushed her; more importantly, she She was also longing for redemption, she hoped to be able to take out this hell, if she could, she would choose to leave, leave far away. She thought Henry would be the key.

In fact, deep in Sarah's heart, the fire of hope has been extinguished. She has no hope for these children, but more thinking that she can escape and escape far away. In essence, she is dark, desperate, and painful. So, when she saw Meredith leaping into Henry's arms, her first thought was negative. Maybe, from the beginning, she didn't believe that Henry would be the key.

Erica and Meredith are two teenagers. Erica is climbing up from the bottom of the dark valley, always looking for an exit from the light, and walking proactively; Meredith is falling from the abyss of despair. , Never really believed that he could be redeemed, the glimmer of hope in his hand, like fine sand, gradually disappeared. Both people kept their hopes on Henry, but they came to different endings.

Just from the selection of these three roles, it can be seen that Tony has chosen the natural actors all in one, hoping that their temperament can bring out the characteristics of the role, instead of trying hard to perform, and staying as much as possible. Give more space to the lens language.

But the accident happened to Lan Li. If according to the trajectory of the previous life, Tony chose Adrian Brody, this is also a true performance, although Adrian's performance skills are beyond doubt. This choice is beyond reproach, but from the perspective of the finished product, the whole work is immersed in a sad and desperate mood. It has not been able to go further, nor can it enrich the levels. It stays in place and revolves, which restricts the possibility of a better film. .

In a well-regulated performance, Lan Li is confident that he can meet Tony’s standards, and once again dedicate an Adrian-style performance. However, Lan Li is not only satisfied with this. The "transcendence" of Lan Li's version can be more blue than blue. It will depend on his performance.

Lan Li has read the script countless times over and over again, but today's reading has a whole new perspective, and he gradually began to conceive performance in his mind—not the role but the performance. This is a typical difference between the Expressionist and the Methodist. Of course, it does not mean that the Expressionist should not consider the role. The basis of performance is always the role, but the interpretation and analysis after in-depth analysis are completely different.

Maybe, he should start to practice the script, not alone behind closed doors. So he stopped reading, noticed the trivial noise in his ear, and saw two young girls.

"What?" Sammy's eyes rounded, as if he didn't understand Lan Li's words. Betty, who was sitting next to him, was even more dazed, and his eyes moved back and forth between Lanly and Sammy in a panic.

Lan Li did not speak, but erected the script in his hand and gestured.

Sammy leaned to the front of the desk, squinted her eyes and looked at it seriously. Then she realized that it was not a book but a script. She nodded suddenly, but did not take the next step. Then Lan Li shook the script slightly, and Sammy nodded vigorously again, like a doll shaking his head. He hurriedly took out the script from his bag, and then straightened his waist like a good student, staring. With big eyes and a bright smile, he waited for Lan Li's instructions.

Betty's movements were a little slower, but she also took out the script immediately, her vision was full of anxiety and panic, she didn't know what she should do at all.

Lan Li didn't mind, and explained it friendly, "Script practice. Open the script, choose your own lines, and confront the opponent actors, invest in the state of performance, find the right rhythm and emotion, and also find it. Before the official shooting, the performance of each other guessed a more accurate rhythm."

Script practice is a very academic basic training, and it is a very important preparation before the theater stage performance. Of course, the main reason is that there is no room for fault tolerance in live stage performances. Practice, practice, and practice again, this is the only way to polish the performance.

But in actual shooting, let alone Hollywood, even in Europe, script practice is becoming less and less. More often, the actor still studies on his own, and then completes the break-in through the formal rehearsal before shooting. However, for new actors without any performance experience, script practice is the best way to find the rhythm of the performance.

Sammy nodded suddenly, lowered his head and opened the script, looked for it seriously, then stopped, and looked at Lan Li again, "Uh, how do I start? Should I just start reading the lines?"

Lan Li nodded and gave an encouraging look, and then Sammy spoke directly, without any timidity or hesitation, the attitude that the newborn calf was not afraid of tigers made people's eyes bright.

"Why are you following me? Huh?" Sammy's first line didn't seem to fluctuate. Don't talk about the performance. You can even hear the smile in her voice, her voice trembling slightly, unable to hide her excitement and tension. . After reading, Sammy raised his head and looked at Lan Li, with uncertain hesitation in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, Lan Li did not provoke him. He went on naturally, "I don't. It's late, you should go home and go, madam." The gentle voice was slightly suppressed, as if suppressing some emotions. , A faint trembling leaked from the ending sound, but the dark tide was surging under the calm surface.

Sammy couldn't help but was stunned, and the lines were cut off like this. She did not expect that Lan Li was so smoothly received, she did not even read the script, and said accurate lines without any hesitation; she also did not expect that Lan Li’s performance was so special. In contrast, her emotions just now were just wrong. Yes, it is obvious that two people are on different levels and cannot form a dialogue.

Vaguely, Sammy somewhat understood the meaning of script exercises, "Is there any trick to this?"

"Read it~www.novelhall.com~Read it aloud." Lan Li said without hiding himself, "You need to know what you are talking about. Lines, this is meaningful, even if it is a hello chat, in the movie script ——I mean, in a good script, this is hidden meaning. The actors are not the repeaters of the lines. These lines must come from the heart. Therefore, you need to know clearly what you say, why you say it, say it like this What was it like when

Putting aside everything else, the line skills are the basic qualities of an actor, but unfortunately, most actors in Hollywood now do not have this quality. In other words, they disdain such literacy, and the script does not provide the corresponding soil.

Sammy nodded thoughtfully, and his vague expression was not clear whether he understood it or not. Then you could hear, Betty, who was sitting next to him, began to chant in a low voice, but the voice was too vague and could not be heard at all.

Lan Li said, "If you plan to read it by yourself, let go of your voice and repeat it; if you plan to participate in the collaboration, you definitely need me to be able to hear the lines." In that indifferent tone With a slight smile, Betty couldn't help but chuckle.
