Chapter 902 Laughing constantly
“Wait, wait.” The audience roared with laughter and sarcasm at Jie, and Jie had to raise his hands in a blocking gesture, “I’m not an actor, understand? I’m not an actor. ”
“But you are my friend. You have never visited the crew.” Lance said something abruptly, and Jie was at a loss for words immediately, and the audience applauded and laughed in unison.
Jay spread his hands and made a helpless gesture, “Africa is a bit too far away for me.” Jay retracted his chin and squinted at Lance, “You can’t blame me, you know, I need to go across the entire North America, and then across the entire Atlantic Ocean, buddy, you and I have not reached that level of friendship.” This counterattack immediately made the audience burst into laughter.
Lance didn’t panic, and nodded slightly, “My next film will be shot in Burbank.” Originally, people thought that Lance was going to refute the topic of “friendship”, but he unexpectedly said this In a word, Jie’s expression became very interesting now.
Jie ignored Lance directly, and looked at Charlize with a probing expression on his face, “What do you think is the cooperation in the crew?” Although there was no other words, this expression plus a word, directly Let the laughter rang out again, but Jie looked at Charlize firmly and gestured with his eyes.
Charlize didn’t procrastinate any more, and said proactively, “Lance is a director who pays close attention to the details of the performance, especially I can feel that in the absence of lines, he hopes that the actors can understand the facial expressions through body language.” to convey the whole emotion.”
“It’s like a stage actor.” Michael added next to him.
Charlize nodded, “That’s right, just like stage actors, but there are many differences, because we need to do a lot of sculpting on the details. In this movie, if you observe carefully, you will find that Lance uses Lots of close-ups of the eyes, and we barely had a lot of lines…”
“Yes, yes.” Jie Lian nodded repeatedly, “In the absence of lines, the emotions of the characters are very clear, as if they were conveyed through the big screen.”
“So often in every scene, Lance will repeatedly and repeatedly find fault there.” Charlize said halfway, then fell silent, quietly looked at Lance, but found that Lance Sitting there calmly, as if he didn’t care at all, but Michael’s voice came over, “But it must be admitted that Lance can always capture the essence of the performance, what we show during the performance , and what is captured in the camera, there always seem to be subtle differences, and this is definitely a rare learning opportunity.”
“Michael, I already know what you mean. Now is not the time to praise me, haven’t you noticed that the audience has no reaction?” Lance’s direct words made Michael stunned, and Charlize and Jay stunned. , even the audience paused for half a beat, and then roared with laughter.
“Lance, Lance…” Jie had to call out several times in a row before drawing the audience’s attention back and finally taking the initiative, “How did you come up with the idea of shooting such a work? I was Said, this is not an ordinary work, in fact, this is not an ordinary work.”
Jie’s special adjective drew laughter from the audience, and Lance also laughed, “This is my purpose.” Lance met Jie’s curious gaze, nodded and said, “Yes, When I first conceived this work, I thought about whether I should shoot a unique work. It’s like… It’s like putting the audience directly into a big iron ball, pushing it down from the top of the Himalayas, and then The whole person began to turn upside down inside,” Lance nodded indiscriminately, up and down, left and right, up and down, left and right, the vivid description made the scene burst into laughter, “You have no time and space to react, you can only be passive accept all the turmoil until the end of the film.”
Jie patted the table and laughed, nodding repeatedly in agreement, “Yes, yes.”
“But after the movie is over, after all the ups and downs have calmed down, you will start to slowly reflect on what happened just now?” The question mark face is so vivid that it can’t stop laughing, “After savoring carefully, You will find that after the adrenaline rush, there are still many things worth thinking about.”
Jie wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes—he laughed too hard, “I have to admit, you succeeded. Also, your description is too accurate, are you sure you don’t plan to act in a comedy?”
Lance spread his hands, “I thought you’d be satisfied seeing me here.” The subtext is that he’s not often funny elsewhere. This sentence once again made Jie take the lead in applauding, sending applause to Lance.
“Actually, as you said, that’s how I watched the movie.” Jay returned to the topic again, “At first, I felt like I was pinned to a chair, and I couldn’t even move my fingers. , I could only stare at the big screen dumbfounded, the powerful impact was like a rocket ‘swish’ passing by in front of my eyes.” The laughter that hadn’t completely calmed down at the scene sounded again, “But, after the movie is over , After returning home, after quietly reminiscing, you will find that this movie is wonderful. I must admit that Charlize’s character left a deep impression on me.” Immediately, whistles and screams were set off, which made Charlize was quite uncomfortable, but she still smiled and nodded to the audience to express her gratitude.
“Lance, it is estimated that few directors have the courage to truly break people’s stereotypes of female roles, put aside gender differences, and shoot a story about two fighters.” Jie marveled, and took the initiative again There was applause, “Charlize, am I right? There is no spark of love between your character and Lance’s character, they are just pure fighting partners.”
Generally speaking, this topic is a little sensitive, and other programs are bound to be unwilling to discuss it in depth. After all, the entire entertainment industry is still male supremacy and white supremacy. This is an indelible factor hidden in the blood of the industry under the cover of eliminating racial discrimination . But today, Jay boldly talked about it on “The Tonight Show”. This courage is really commendable.
“Yes, I must say, the reason why Lance is a great director…” Charlize just said the beginning, the applause and cheers cut in, and Charlize showed a big smile, “Yes, The reason why Lance is great is not only because he dared to break through himself and shoot a work that shocked everyone, but also because he dared to break through the shackles and discuss topics that others dare not touch on.”
“Presumably many European directors are rolling their eyes at this time, but…” Lance raised his hands and made a modest expression, as if to say, “I accept your compliments.” Even Charlize couldn’t hold back, and burst out laughing, and the scene fell into a sea of laughter.
Smiling slightly, Charlize went on to say, “You know, when we are in an endless chase, we can’t stop, because once we stop, we may die. Under such circumstances, if we It’s just ridiculous to stop and talk about love.”
“But that’s the most exciting part of this movie, isn’t it?” Jay said, “When you see two fighters fighting side by side, from the beginning of the confrontation to the end of the last handing over to each other’s back, that kind of spirit Relying on and complementing each other, this is an existence beyond ordinary emotions.”
Lance noticed Jie’s gaze, and he nodded, “The friendship accumulated during the war is different, just like the ‘Band of Brothers’.”
“This is also what I am most curious about.” Jie said, “Through the work ‘Band of Brothers’, we can feel that wars are often the domain of men, and it seems that there is no living space for women. Even if there is , maybe just nurses, prostitutes, or civilians.”
Lance did not answer Jay’s question directly, but brought up a digression~www.readmtl.com~ In Stanley Kubrick’s “Paths of Glory”, the last scene of the movie left a deep impression on me Impression, in the moment of continuous war, a captured German woman was caught on the stage and asked to sing in front of the French soldiers. Everyone was laughing and mocking her, and she timidly sang the folk songs of her hometown. “The simple few words made the scene quiet immediately, and it was rare for Lance not to show his humor. He said seriously, “The amazing thing is that when she started to sing, all the soldiers fell silent. No insult. Because in war, everyone is equal and every life is precious. This is also what I want to express, the so-called gender differences, of course, I cannot deny that there are indeed differences between us…” Lance glanced at Charlize who was sitting next to him, and the meaningful gaze immediately made people I couldn’t help laughing, but the laughter didn’t break out after all, “But I have worked with many great women, and I clearly understand that we are not necessarily better than them, and they are not necessarily better than us. We are all equal. It’s just a different way to deal with the difficulties encountered, that’s all. So, I conceived the core of the story of “Fury Road” and created the character of Furiosa and many other female characters. I thought, if after the film was released, it could sting the sore feet of some machismo, that would be a victory for me. ”
In the last sentence, Langston immediately returned to his humorous nature, and Jie immediately raised his hands, “It’s not me, he’s definitely not talking about me.” Applause, of course, and laughter. (To be continued.)
