Surrey, located only 30 minutes' drive southeast of London, is a quiet town. The winding Thames River quietly runs through the whole town. It is comfortable and peaceful, comfortable and beautiful. The University of Surrey located here is even more so in England. The 100-year-old famous school, the bustling Xin Xin students have brought a touch of vitality and youth to the local life.

However, compared with other parts of the British Isles, which are either beautiful or magnificent, Surrey has a more intense life and a rural atmosphere that is unique to the suburbs. This is a town suitable for settled life, but for tourists on vacation and travel, the attraction seems to be less graceful.

Standing beside the reeds on the country road, you can see the rural residential houses stacked with dark red brick walls slowly spreading out, the messy bushes, damp soil and dilapidated shacks, outline the chaos of lack of order, overhead. The dark clouds on the large tracts completely blocked the sun, and it made all the scenery in the line of sight bleak, and the hurried footsteps did not want to stop at all.

But Renly's footsteps stopped, standing on the trail, earnestly admiring the scene of life in front of him.

The old man who was in the garden, with his back hunched, was intently trimming the lilac hedge, and the sound of the scissors clacked with a special rhythm in the wind.

The postman delivering the mail on a bicycle, with a bright smile on his face, warmly greeted the residents standing on the balcony on the second floor.

There is also an old grandmother in a long floral dress standing at the intersection, carefully looking at the empty intersection, looking for an opportunity to cross the intersection.

...

There are no special images or pictures, it is full of rich life atmosphere, even a little trivial, but it makes the mood settle down slowly, and a faint warmth floats in my heart.

"What are you looking at?" Nathan probed left and right curiously, stood beside him, followed Renly's line of sight, but found nothing. The question marks on his head were not only unanswered, but even more puzzled.

A smile formed on the corner of Renly's mouth, and he said with a chuckle, "That's all, a corner of the town."

Nathan frowned slightly, not knowing why: Is there anything special in this corner of the town? I've been standing here for at least three minutes, looking more like I'm admiring a masterpiece.

"The eccentricities of artists are always unpredictable, so don't guess." A voice with a chuckle came from behind, without turning his head, but Nathan turned his head directly, and then saw the oncoming Rooney-Mara.

Today's Rooney, dressed in a light outfit, a white shirt and sky blue jeans, paired with a pair of white canvas shoes, and finally a smoky gray jacket, with long dark hair casually tied into a ponytail. Any superfluous embellishments and dresses are simple and elegant, but they reveal a Nordic coldness that makes her eyes fall on the corner of her mouth involuntarily.

Nathan couldn't help blinking, and the unresolved question marks above his head added more: When did Rooney appear? Why didn't he hear any engine noise, did Rooney come on foot? Also, what did Rooney's words mean? Was he talking to, or was it Renly?

While thinking and hesitating, Nathan saw Rooney blinking with a smile, revealing a playful look, and in an instant, the coldness quietly faded away, as if a shimmer of light could be seen brightening little by little , revealing a touch of warmth.

Rooney stopped beside her, did not speak immediately, but cast her gaze forward and joined Renly's ranks, quietly admiring the quiet rural scene in front of her.

The surging tranquility between the two inexplicably calmed Nathan's urgency and irritability. Countless questions were still unanswered, but he was no longer in a hurry to seek answers. Then, Nathan also joined them, watching the scene in front of them, but still didn't know why, ignorant.

"It's been a long time, right? I guess, you will definitely miss all this." Rooney opened her mouth to break the silence, and her cold voice revealed a shallow smile.

"Ha." Ren Li chuckled, then shook his head from side to side, not denying, but noncommittal.

It has been ten months before and after, and for more than ten months, I have stayed in the confines of the city, from Berlin to Los Angeles, to London, and finally New York. Since 2012, I have been here all the time. Running back and forth between several cities, working one after the other, without touching the ground, it is impossible to stop.

Now, after a long absence, I finally left the city limits again and came to the countryside. The large buildings and bustling people in my sight have all disappeared, and even the noise and chirping in my ears have completely disappeared. The tranquility makes people want to immerse themselves in it and wander slowly.

Of course, so did the crew.

The stage and the crew are two completely different ways of performing. After further polishing the acting skills on the stage, Renly is now gearing up and can't wait to return to the crew, standing in front of the camera lens, and re-entering the world of performance. , to test his gains over the past six months.

So, standing on the country lane, Renly stopped, letting the tense heartstrings loosen little by little.

Rooney understood, really understood how Renly felt inside.

Just like last year's Oscars, Rooney almost fled Los Angeles for Seattle. In the architectural space of Seattle, she can still feel the dull and

Depressed suffocation, if it wasn't for chatting with Renly on the bench, Rooney would choose to go to the city park and disappear into the large swath of green.

"Are you sure your nerves won't be too tense? You just finished your Broadway show just a week ago. I thought you'd rest for a while," Rooney said again.

"Yes, I regret it." Renly admitted readily, which made Rooney's mouth smile involuntarily. "But it's worth it, this work is worth it." Then he added, "In fact, after the last show on Broadway, I just couldn't put the script down and really start diving into a whole new world."

"Uh..." Nathan said hesitantly, "After the show, didn't you go surfing in Hawaii?"

Nathan's exposure on the spot made Rooney chuckle, but Renly didn't show any embarrassment and said calmly, "I mean between surfing."

After the Broadway show, Renly bought a ticket for the next day and headed straight to Hawaii, where he stayed for seven days, relaxing and surfing. Otherwise, as Rooney said, the itinerary from Broadway to the "Gravity" crew would be too intensive, and Renly would be overwhelmed.

"Are you sure this skin color is suitable for being an astronaut?" Rooney looked Renly up and down and joked.

But Renly said calmly, "There is no rule that astronauts can't like surfing." Seeing the playful smile in Rooney's eyes, she knew that she couldn't continue talking nonsense. The state of the skin after working for a long time is really not comparable to that during surfing. "Well, if the director needs to, I will paint my skin white."

That helpless expression made Rooney laugh happily, but she didn't continue to entangle, "But I must admit, this is a very special script. To be honest, I don't have much clue now, I don't even know. How did I get this role."

"Didn't you just join a brand new crew when we communicated via email before?" The previous question, now finally had the opportunity to ask face-to-face.

Rooney turned her head and stared at it with wide eyes, "That was two and a half months ago. Soderbergh's filming progressed very fast, and it was finished in less than a month." Enough space, joined the "Gravity" crew, and collaborated for the first time.

For a while, Renly realized that while Rooney was working on Broadway, Rooney's work was in full swing. Obviously, he just made a mistake of carving a boat and seeking a sword. It seems that his head has not been completely tense.

"Maybe, starting today, I should get back into the habit of thinking." Renly mocked himself, Rooney and Nathan both laughed, "So, after studying the script, what is your conclusion? "

"The thinking space left by the script itself is actually limited, and the real performance space comes from the director." Without a pause, Rooney immediately expressed her opinion, "So, before the official start of filming, the creative team needs to Have a good conversation. What's your idea for the character?"

As Renly and Rooney say, "Gravity" is a very special script. Not only because of the large number of one-man shows, but also because of the large amount of blank space in it, the actors' performances are used to complete the exploration and deepening of the core ideas, which means that the actors must fully understand the director's creative intentions and the background behind the composition of the picture. deep meaning.

Furthermore, the actor must also have sufficient knowledge of the character. What happened to the character's past led to the thinking and struggle within the time frame of the movie; how did the character's psychological state fit with the story situation, which led to thinking under the situation; and, the source of the character was What, moves the whole story forward.

Before the official performance, the actor must have a clear understanding of the entire story and the entire role, and have accurate control of the entire film and the director's conception. Only in this way can the work be carried out smoothly.

Now, Renly and Rooney are having a discussion, and it's only their first day on set, and they haven't even officially entered the set.
