Superstar

Chapter 10: Premonition of failure

   Hugo must admit that Elizabeth's teasing is too obvious. If the other party is a young girl, it is a beautiful thing, but it turns out that there is a housewife who can be her own mother in front of her, which is not so beautiful. Hugo watched Elizabeth's peacock blue eyeshadow flashing in his realization, only feeling weak.

   Elizabeth slipped across Hugo's abdominal muscles with her thinly callused finger pads, which had such a sharp tone. Hugo was shocked by the emotion, he only felt a light goose bump floating on his abdomen. This made Hugo a little flustered. He hadn't encountered such a situation before, and naturally didn't know how to deal with it. In an emergency, this solution flashed through Hugo's mind, and finally he decided to advance instead.

Hugo raised his right hand, held the palm of Elizabeth gently rubbing on his abdominal muscles, moved it slightly away from his body, and then buckled Elizabeth lightly with the fingertips of his index finger and his nails. There was still a warm smile on the palm of her face, an electric current made Elizabeth's muscles involuntarily stiffen, and then she retracted her palm.

This time it was Elizabeth’s turn to be taken aback, but her face did not show up. Instead, she cast a look at Hugo. If a beautiful woman made this expression, it would be very charming, but unfortunately Elizabeth was not suitable, especially the peacock blue eyeshadow made the image of Susan Boyle (Susan Boyle) in Hugo's head constantly flicker. This makes the scene look a lot awkward.

   Elizabeth whispered to Hugo, "Sure enough, you are familiar with the road, are you teasing me?"

   Light car familiar road? What does this mean? Hugo didn't think deeply, but chuckled slightly, the clear and sunny smile at the corner of his mouth fully bloomed, and Elizabeth's heartbeat, which was originally jumping for joy, was even more irregular. "I thought this was an audition. Part of it."

   Hugo's magnanimous words made Elizabeth stunned, and then she saw Hugo look at Jon, who had been sitting next to the theater, "Is that right, Jon?"

Jon heard Hugo's call and couldn't help but coughed a little embarrassingly. As the representative of the actors' union, he witnessed the whole process just now. Although everything happened in the dark just now, nothing can be seen on the bright side. Come, but Jon has been rolling in this industry for so long, naturally knowing that this is actually the rule of the face, so he has no need to stop it. But the rules are the rules, and Jon's position is indeed more subtle when Hugo is so blatantly pierced.

   Jon quickly closed his gaze back, dropped Elizabeth, and said solemnly, "Can the audition begin?"

   Elizabeth also reacted at this time, and took a deep look at Hugo, scanning his sturdy physique up and down, and the eyes of Chi Guoguo made Hugo feel very uncomfortable. This time Elizabeth quickly retracted her eyes, and the corners of her mouth formed an arc, "Next, you try to read this line."

Hugo knew that the main event was about to begin. He sorted out the thoughts in his head, looked at the script handed over by Elizabeth, took the script with his right hand, and put it on the table again, and then he was in Joe En and Elizabeth lowered their heads in stunned eyes, and buttoned their shirts one by one.

Seeing Hugo’s regular actions, Jon was obviously suffocating a smile and holding back. He had never thought that Hugo was a person with such a sense of humor, especially with the passage of Elizabeth. According to the rules, now Hugo buttoning his shirt button is even more joyful, but Jon's smile immediately narrowed a lot at the thought of the woman's order. And Elizabeth's eyes still had unconcealable astonishment-or she didn't want to hide it at all, just looking at Hugo's gaze was a little more playful.

   In fact, for Hugo, open his shirt. chest. dew. Reading the lines breastly, this makes him feel like he is in a play, either take off his clothes or button up the buttons. It is more appropriate to choose one. Hugo just watched the scene instructed by Elizabeth. After thinking about the content, he finally decided to button up the buttons more appropriately.

   After finishing his shirt, Hugo picked up the script again, and first looked up and down the script with his eyes. Hugo is not an actor born in a class. He is completely self-taught because of his interest. He doesn't know what acting method is. He just follows classic characters in classic movies and tries to figure out acting skills by imitation. He hasn't "learned" acting for five years. I know if I have learned a famous one or not, anyway, I don't need acting skills for a long set and supporting roles.

   For the first official audition today, Hugo did not know how he should respond, and finally decided to imitate his predecessors. Hugo has never seen "Lover on the River", but he has seen "The Years of Love". Brad’s roles in these two works are similar. Today, Hugo is trying to imitate Brad’s role in "The Love of Love". The performance method in "Years and Years". Using Brad's performance seems to fight against the real Brad Pitt, which is the root cause of Hugo's lack of confidence today. But no matter what, you always know after you try it. Besides, Hugo doesn't copy it completely. Even if it is the same role and the same method of acting, the effects of different actors will not be the same.

Although not from a major, Hugo also knows the importance of understanding lines, because he found that many actors have special rhythms and intonations when playing roles. To be precise, everyone has different characteristics when speaking. The characteristics of speaking to the role are more effective for the interpretation of the role.

After reading the lines in detail, Hugo adjusted his breathing, and then said, "Nevertheless, Paul and I have received as much fishing training as the theology." Hugo's voice was already very mellow. , There is a little melancholy in the warmth and kindness, as if it is velvet, which makes people intoxicated. At this time, Hugo deliberately slowed down and softened the speed of his speech, so that the line said this line has a kind of deep-rooted rhythm.

"As a member of the Presbyterian Church, my father believes that human nature is evil, and only by acting according to God's will can he regain his strength and beauty." This line is a complete sentence composed of three clauses. Hugo slows down his breath. After coming down, this made the whole sentence not rushed, but added some understanding of the wise man, which made the words meaningful, "For him, salmon is the same as eternal salvation, it is the grace of God. This grace comes from art, and art is hard-won."

   Hugo is actually a musician, so he has a special rhythm in his mastery of rhythm when he reads his lines. A line full of wisdom is presented in a sonnet, and the effect is unexpectedly wonderful. It can be said that Hugo has his own understanding of the lines and tried his best to combine the roles with the lines. If this line is performed with the shirt open, it will be very funny. Hugo took the content of the line into consideration, and then buttoned the shirt. It seems that it is obviously a wise choice.

   After the line was over, Hugo still felt a little bit unfinished. The line left him too little room for expression. He had just entered the state and the line was over. But even so, Hugo is still very satisfied. He enjoys the process of the performance very much. Before today, Hugo’s most lines in the performance were of this weight, but today he got it in the audition. The opportunity to perform with a heavy weight is truly a wonderful thing.

After the line performance was over, Hugo looked at Elizabeth expectantly. He was still very satisfied with his performance just now, but he didn’t know what it would be like in the eyes of others. In addition to the lines, there are Her expressions, eyes, movements, and the whole performance must be left to Elizabeth to judge.

Although Jon sitting next to him is only the representative agent of the Screen Actors Guild, he has seen countless audition occasions. Hugo’s audition performance is absolutely amazing, even if it is still a bit rough, but Hugo’s grasp of the rhythm of the lines, The control of the character's emotions can clearly see his talents. The three terrible films of "Hudson's Eagle", "Deadly Moment", and "Detective Raiders" did not completely deplete his talents.

You know, before these three works, Hugo relied on his acting talent to become famous, not to mention the outstanding performance in the "Death Poetry Society" that made him famous, but after that, Hugo's work selection There was a serious deviation, which led to the successive "favors" of the Golden Raspberry Award.

   In fact, this is a good thing. After polishing and precipitation, Hugo can still become an excellent actor, instead of relying only on the vase in the skin. However, Jon knew that the decision of the audition was not in his own hands, and his understanding of the situation was not optimistic. Jon couldn't help but look at Elizabeth.

   Elizabeth's expression seemed very calm, without too much special look, but in fact, she still appreciated Hugo's performance just now in her heart. Although Hugo just won the Golden Raspberry Award for the Worst Actor Award last night, not to mention the two years and three nominations of the Golden Raspberry Award, but Elizabeth will not forget the rain. Guo's famous work "Death Poetry Society".

In the "Death Poetry Society", Hugo performed the role of Neil Perry vividly, with expression, eyes, body, lines...all aspects have reached the height of integration, compared with the male protagonist Robin Williams (Robin. Williams) is not inferior, and in that year's awards season, Hugo did not get any nomination for best supporting actor, this incident caused dissatisfaction with the entire critics.

   The performance just now reminded Elizabeth of Hugo's performance in the "Death Poetry Society", and once again saw Hugo's amazing talent for attracting countless people's attention. However, it is a pity that many things were doomed before Hugo participated in the audition, and Elizabeth had no plans to change.

   "Hugo, do you have any special opinions about this script?" Elizabeth lived up to Hugo's ardent hope and did not intend to comment on his performance, but changed the subject.

   Hugo didn't know how the Hollywood audition program worked, but Elizabeth didn't say anything to her performance, and deliberately changed the subject, which is obviously abnormal. Hugo once again turned his attention to the script in his hands. The line just now was not the line of the second son Paul in "Dahe Love", but the line of the eldest son Newman. This kind of thing did not happen when Hugo participated in a supporting role interview before. Rare, but it is obviously worth noting in the protagonist interview.

   Could it be that an accident happened before his audition started, or even doomed to fail? This is too strange!
