The Greatest Showman

Remember in one second [End of the God Station] Mobile phone user input address: m.xinwanben.com

The streets of Los Angeles always seem to be very wide. There are no high-rise buildings around. It seems that the whole world has opened up. The bright sunshine fills every corner with impunity. With a layer of warm creamy yellow, even passers-by who are in a hurry seem to feel comfortable.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm late." Derek Doremus wiped the sweat from his forehead, with a big smile on his face, pulled out the chair next to him, and sat down on Renly's right hand." When did you get here? Shouldn't it be a long wait? I'm really sorry, I know, based on New York time, I've been blacklisted, right?"

Drake's speaking rhythm is always unhurried and slow, and the ups and downs of his tone are very stable, even if he is out of breath, but the content of his words is always lively and playful, and even playful ridicule, plus Mengmeng. The contrast between his curly and chubby figure is very stark, but in just a few sentences, his image is outlined.

"It's okay, you're just in time in Los Angeles. You're a lot earlier in Barcelona time." Renly's answer made Drake giggle sullenly, the laughter echoing in his chest. .

Today is the day when the entire crew of "Crazy in Love" officially meets. It is not only an occasion to introduce and get to know each other, but also an occasion to determine the tone of the work and the style of the characters.

After signing the contract the day before yesterday, Renly got the script, finished the whole script seriously, and settled his own thoughts, so on occasions like today, actors and directors can communicate and exchange opinions and understandings with each other. , to determine a direction for the next shooting work, so as to avoid the need to spend time arguing after entering the shooting-for independent film crews, once the film starts, each link will cost money, and the cost of film alone is enough.

This small detail can be seen, compared to Rodrigo-Cortez, Drake's experience in directing feature films is much richer.

Renly arrived twenty-five minutes earlier than the scheduled time, and had only been seated for less than ten minutes before Drake showed up—he wasn't late.

It was late September, but it was still a hot summer day in Los Angeles. Drake was sweating profusely, and he hurriedly summoned the waiter, ordered an ice-cold Coke, and when he turned around, he saw Renly's staring eyes. I couldn't help looking left and right, and my eyes widened, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with my instrument?"

Renly shook his head with a smile, he was actually watching Drake. Because the script of "Crazy in Love" was written based on his personal experience, although it is said that Jacob in the story is not his own incarnation, he can still see some shadows more or less, so he is trying to learn from Drake confirmed his own understanding of Jacob.

"No, just in the script just now, a little curious." Renly changed the subject calmly.

Drake didn't suspect him, his eyes fell on the script in Renly's hands, and his expression couldn't help but get excited, "How is it? What do you think? What's the problem?"

"What I'm curious about is why you fell in love with her in the first place—I mean, your ex-wife." Renly moved his black tea to the side, put the script on the table, and had a serious conversation, "Could it be Is it because of that little poem? Or is it because someone took the initiative to confess to you, and the heart started pounding involuntarily?"

Renly's light-hearted remark made Drake laugh happily.

In the script of "Crazy in Love", there is not much weight given to the details of two people falling in love. Anna fell in love with Jacob, and then wrote a little poem and put it on the windshield of Jacob's car On the glass, after Jacob got married, they asked Anna out; the two of them made some simple jokes, and later Anna showed Jacob the other poems she had written, and she had a wonderful day, just like this fell in love.

There are only two scenes shown in the script. The scene is a tentative exchange between two people in a cafe, and the scene is at Anna's house at night, and the two exchange poems in their notebooks.

As Renly said, the time span of the entire script is very long. The director cannot show the spiritual exchange and spark collision of two people falling in love like "Before Sunrise" and "Before Sunset". Fragments of life are then presented through the performances of actors.

"Love Crazy" in the previous life, the performances of Anton Eugene and Felicity Jones failed to show these details, just like countless Hollywood romantic movies, relying on the spark of love at first sight to explain.

However, the lack of details makes the audience lose their sympathy, and the lack of progressive understanding of the scorching hot and melting love between Jacob and Anna, not to mention the alienation of the two people, which also makes the story stay on the surface. : Two young people who fell in love because of passion, drifted apart because of distance. In turn, it affects the film's in-depth understanding of the essence of love.

Now, Renly is trying to understand the story beyond the script, the message that only the actors know and then convey to the audience through the performance. These unseen contents and unreadable details are not only the foundation of the actors' performance, but also the foundation of the sublimation of the story. He had to start from scratch, delete all the movie clips about the past in his mind, and rebuild the character.

"I guess, there should be all of them." Drake said hesitantly, then rubbed his cheeks with both hands, and let out a low voice of annoyance, "It's been too long, it's been too long, the memory is now blurred ." He put down his hands and looked at Renly, "Do you have to understand this?"

Ren Li pursed his lips and picked up his coffee.

Coffee, take a sip. Although he didn't speak, the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Drake slumped his shoulders, lowered his head to think seriously, then took a deep breath before looking up at Renly again, "You know, I used to be a stuffy otaku—of course, I am now. I chose a very remote major, for girls, no one likes it; and I am not very good at talking, and I don't know how to make girls laugh. So, when a girl suddenly confessed to me, I must Admit it, I'm ecstatic."

Drake fell into memory, and after being silent for a while, the smile on the corner of his mouth rose, and he could even see the look of happiness between his brows. Renly couldn't help but guess that even though Drake was divorced, deep down, they should still love each other. The years have passed, but the light and warmth of the memories have not been washed away.

"I'm a little nervous and a little excited. But most importantly, I like her writing." Drake leaned forward to meet Renly's gaze, his eyes glowing with excitement, as if returning When I received the love letter for the first time, "She...she is really a very talented girl. Her poems have a delicate touch. I like them very much. By the way, her words are very beautiful."

Trapped in memories, the smile on Drake's face became a little more disappointed.

Renly couldn't help but start to think about the turbulent loss in his heart after Drake chased his ex-wife to London; after returning to Los Angeles, on what occasion did he meet a new person before, when the other party moved in. How mixed his mind was when he arrived at his studio. They obviously still love each other, but they are pushed forward by the torrent of life. The helplessness and powerlessness are sighing.

"Do you remember why you two broke up?" Renly suddenly remembered the question and brought it up.

As Renly expected, Drake's eyes were blank, and he didn't speak for a long time. This is life, the mind is vast and even Guangyu, thunder rang in the silent place, two people who clearly loved each other chose to break up, two people who clearly hated chose to hold hands, and suddenly returned, but the trivial memory deep in the memory can no longer be recognized Clearly, even Drake himself didn't know how they ended up.

This is precisely the most profound connotation of the movie "Crazy Love", which belongs to the true meaning of life.

"It's been so many years since we left, what do you remember most about her now?" Renly followed Drake's expression and asked another question.

Drake's eyes fluctuated gently, seeming to be caught in memory, and then the corners of his mouth became gentle, "Her eyes. You know, she has beautiful eyes, as if full of stars." Simple The words are the most beautiful love words in the world, but I think of the regrettable ending of the two people, which adds to the sigh.

"Hey, I'm not late, right?" A panting voice burst in suddenly, the turbulent breathing was a little flustered, and the messy silk floated to the lips due to the strong wind, she couldn't help raising her hand to push the silk away, that The pair of bright eyes entered the line of sight, and the flow of light between Gu Pan outlined the silky pliable perseverance.

With just a glimpse, Renly understood why Drake had chosen her to play Anna.

"Sorry, I went to the second floor. If it wasn't for the waiter who came to ask me what I wanted for lunch, I wouldn't have realized it. I was just wondering if I remembered the time wrong." Silky shy, her slightly flushed cheeks forced her to bite her lower lip lightly to hide her panic and shyness. She turned her head and stretched out her right hand towards Renly, "Felicity Jones!"

Under the resolute eyes, there is still a little sloppy, that kind of girl's tenderness and a little helpless. "Renly-Hall!" Renly took Felicity's right hand and introduced himself amicably.

"Here? Is it here?" A cheerful and clear girl's voice sounded immediately, and then I saw... a thin and tall golden boy strode over, and his footsteps stopped beside Felicity. He came down and nodded politely to Drake, "Director, long time no see."

Then, between the two of them, another head popped up on her toes. She looked left and right, and just as she was about to say hello, she blurted out a shocked voice, "...Why are you here?"
