Chapter 599: Performance realm

ads_wz_txt;

Revival 599 performance level is really a situation that Hugo has never encountered before in his career. The performance is very smooth and the picture presented is also perfect, but the whole performance process lacks a little chemical reaction, which makes people quite embarrassed. .

In fact, if you just show Hugo’s performance on the big screen, this is not a problem. At least it is a safety card and passes the pass, but the problem is that no one wants to “pass the pass”—at least for acting skills. No one who pursues it wants this.

Hugo understands what Quentin and Samuel mean. This spark is very mysterious, but it is actually very simple. It is a power in the depths of the soul. Just like when Hugo is playing the role of Amon Goss, his eyes can have a terrifying power, as deep as a black hole, which can absorb all the vitality around him; Hugo is playing Sam -The same is true in Baldwin's time. There are some subtle changes in the eyes and corners of the mouth when smiling. Sometimes the audience can't even notice the subtle processing, but the overall effect on the screen is completely different.

The spark that bursts out during the performance is that the actor and the character find resonance. It may be the overlap of the actor and the character’s experience, the actor’s in-depth understanding of the character’s experience, or the actor’s understanding of the character’s personality. Inspiration may also be the product of two actors driving each other when acting in a rivalry.

But the problem is that Vincent’s role does not have such an entry point, and his characteristics are not obvious-or it can be said that Hugo's digging of the role is not deep enough, which makes Hugo's performance adequate. , But also plain.

"So, do you remember our previous views on the role of Vincent?" Quentin looked at Hugo who fell silent and said.

Hugo nodded slightly, "Of course. Some are wise but a bit nervous, some are serious but a little humorous, some are impatient but able to calm down the characters, combing their shiny backs, suits and leather shoes. Like an elegant gentleman of the golden age, but doing cruel and cold-blooded things."

"Yes, that's it!" It was this conversation that made Quentin firm up on Hugo's determination. He patted Hugo **** the shoulder, "Give me a performance like this! Please, Hugo, that's it. It's the first scene of the boot, don't let me down."

Facing Quentin’s words, Hugo smiled helplessly, put both sides on his shoulders, palms facing up, and then pressed up and down, expressing that he was under a lot of pressure. This action made Quentin suddenly laugh. stand up.

After the filming started again, Hugo really relaxed a bit, but Quentin felt that Hugo was too relaxed, and the performance was a bit greasy and exaggerated, which did not match the black humor style; the fourth time I started filming, Hugo was stuck. On the line; the fifth time, the performance still seemed overly restrained... I can clearly feel that Hugo’s hands are tied, and there is still no way to play the level of the whole game, and it is getting worse and worse. This is not good news for the "Pulp Fiction" crew.

After ng eight times in a row, Hugo took the initiative to call "card". He got out of the car and apologized to the crew again and again, "Quentin, I need twenty minutes." Quentin didn't have much. What you say, nodding to agree.

Samora stood there a little at a loss. He hadn’t encountered this situation before, and he didn’t know what to do. In the end, Stacey came over and patted him on the shoulder, "Let Hugo be quiet, the actor needs to think. Space, he will call you if he needs it."

Since today’s shooting location is on the street, it is difficult for Hugo to find a completely quiet place. He did not go far, so he found a relatively clean place on the corner of the street, sat down directly, and violently Rubbing his face, trying to calm himself down.

In fact, before that, Hugo analyzed the character of Vincent, but he was always unable to grasp the essence of the character of Vincent, which made Hugo assume the attitude of a headless fly during the performance. .

However, what are the characteristics of Vincent? Could it be said that Hugo can only perform roles with outstanding characteristics and personalities? This possibility made Hugo a little panic. Because Hugo doesn't want to be the kind of actor who can only play distinctive roles, he hopes to reach a deeper realm.

What is the highest state of acting? It can definitely be said that the benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees the wisdom. A thousand readers make a thousand Hamlet. Similarly, a thousand actors have a thousand performances and a thousand film critics. There are just a thousand kinds of acting skills to appreciate.

Some people think that the vivid restoration of historical real figures makes the audience mistakenly believe that the actors are possessed by historical figures. This is acting. For example, the iron maiden Margaret played by Meryl Streep. ), Helen Mirren played Queen Elizabeth II (queen...), Daniel Day Lewis played Abraham Lincoln (abraham.). Amon Goss played by Hugo Lancaster also belongs to this category. Because of the realistic character, it has triggered a wide range of discussions and even led to rumors of beautifying Nazis.

Some people think that showing the personality of the virtual character vividly and clearly conveying the authenticity of the story outside the screen is acting. For example, Heath Ledger’s clown in "Batman: The Dark Knight" Robert De Niro played Travis in "Taxi Driver" and Jack Nicholson played McMurphy in "Flying Over the Cuckoo's Asylum".

Others think that the details of ordinary characters are outlined, so that the characters on the screen are infinitely close to life, just like the characters that will appear on the way home and the neighbor next door, so that the audience cannot distinguish the difference between the movie and the life. This is acting. For example, Dustin Hoffman played Ted Kramer in "The Cramers", Kevin Spacey played Leicester in "American Beauty", and Bill Murray ( .Murray) as Bob in "Lost in Tokyo (.in..

In the past, Hugo’s understanding of acting skills is the simplest "what to act like what", but after becoming an actor, Hugo knows that if the actor only focuses on "what is acting like what", Then maybe he won't be able to make a breakthrough in his life.

Indeed, acting like what is a very high state, but no matter how high the state is, it is always "imitating", but the object of imitation may be a real historical character, a fictional character in a novel, or it may be Hugo relied on his own advantage to imitate the original role played by...In this way, even if Hugo can finally reach the realm of "what is acting like what", he will always be just an imitator.

An excellent actor, in fact, "what is acting like what" can only be said to be the foundation. To achieve excellence, you must have such a level, but this is not enough. A truly great actor must not only act like what, but also inject his own understanding of the role into it. In short, it is to turn this role into his own. It can only be Hugo’s Amon Goss. Changing to any other actor will not work. Hugo’s own characteristics will be deeply imprinted on the character; he can even use his own experience to interpret the character, interpret and dig out more in-depth things about the character, and let the character "Live", this is the real success.

Although Hugo has only starred in four movies so far, but each time he bears a different challenge, Hugo began to seek his own breakthrough from a simple imitation, and now he is in a very vague state: he is trying to find himself and himself At the intersection between the roles of the script, he is looking for his own understanding of the role; at the same time, he is trying to integrate himself into the role, trying to interpret the role of his own characteristics.

But obviously, this is not an easy task. Hugo in "Sleepless in Seattle" and "Schindler's List" are all trying, but so far, the characters in the script have always occupied the main part, rain If after the "Schindler's List" was completed, there was no way to get out of the role, that's why-Amon Goss had begun to erode his brain.

Therefore, Hugo knew that it was not easy for him to make a breakthrough, which is why Hugo chose "Pulp Fiction" after repeated consideration.

Strictly speaking, the "challenge difficulty" of Vincent's role in "Pulp Fiction" is indeed not as good as that of any previous role played by Hugo, and it is also inferior to "Shawshank's Redemption". This is also director Kun The inevitable result of Ting's strong style. But in fact, the challenge that Vincent's role brings to Hugo is indeed completely different. This allows Hugo to analyze the role and understand the performance from a different perspective. Maybe, this will have different gains. Obviously, Hugo felt this kind of impact in the first scene of the boot.

The role of Vincent can obviously be summarized into the category of "ordinary person", just like an ordinary **** who can be seen everywhere in life. He does not have many characteristics, unlike the works of "Godfather" and "Good Guy". The individual gang members, even compared to Jules’s signature "Bible" segment, Vincent lacks such a shining point.

This can be seen from the discussion of "Pulp Fiction" among fans in the future~www.wuxiaspot.com~ When people mention the characters in this movie, they may mention the "Bible" every time they kill someone. Jules might mention the neurotic but bewildered Mia, or the bewildered boxer Butch, but few people would mention the actor Vincent. Even if they mention it, most of them are. Just remember Vincent and Mia's famous dance that goes down in history.

Therefore, Vincent is a character without outstanding characteristics.

Hugo believes that if he can perform Vincent's "down-to-earth" role like Dustin Hoffman, Kevin Spacey and others, then his understanding of acting skills can also be achieved. The breakthrough is not to be eaten by the character like "Schindler's List", but to let himself eat the character and present a Hugo version of the character.

But obviously, Hugo did not succeed. He suffered a huge setback in the first performance at the start of the boot. This can even be said to be the biggest setback he has encountered since crossing!
