The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 1367 Pulling Left and Right
Vivian. Vanity Fair. June Carter. Life.

Johnny was full of doubts. He didn't understand the reason and couldn't see the whole picture. He was trapped. Everything seemed to be finally on the right track, and his career and life were entering a new chapter, but why did he feel that he was bound up, getting tighter and tighter, and he could hardly breathe?

Confused and puzzled.

Then Johnny exploded.

During a show, Johnny deliberately interrupted the performance and invited June Carter to perform on stage with him.

Even though he knew that June Carter didn't like it, he also knew that with June Carter's dedication and professionalism, she would not refuse even if she didn't like it.

So, under the influence of alcohol and drugs, Johnny's mind was a mess and things went off track.

He incited the audience, kidnapped June Carter, and forced June Carter to perform on stage with him and sing love songs; he even directed the vulgar culture of the show towards June Carter and made some inappropriate jokes.

This completely infuriated June Carter.

The performance did not end smoothly.

Backstage, June Carter berated Johnny, which pushed Johnny further into the abyss of darkness. He had just entered the world of fame and fortune and had not even had time to climb to the top before he lost himself in the colorful splendor.

This collaborative performance, which was neither smooth nor perfect, is what "Walking with the Song" is preparing to film today.

On the one hand, the two actors need to complete their performances and show the undercurrent of tug-of-war and confrontation between the two characters.

On the one hand, the two actors need to complete the live performance, not just singing, but also need to integrate the deviation between appearance and essence into the music.

Just from the description, we can tell that this poses a severe test to the expressiveness and interpretative power of singing, making music a part of the performance. Even professional singers may not be able to do this job; and now, two amateur singers need to complete such a difficult live singing while taking into account the interpretation of the roles.

difficult!
Reese has her own pressures and difficulties, and Anson has his own problems and issues.

During this period, the two actors have been communicating, talking and arguing with each other, in this way helping each other get into the role and situation.

However, the preliminary preparations are just talk on paper. Entering into actual combat is a completely different test. Not only the actors, but the entire crew can deeply feel this pressure.

A little bit of excitement, a little bit of tension, different emotions intertwined together.

Although the crew members have been avoiding interfering with Anson's work, the topic surrounding "The Warmth of the Heart" has more or less reached Anson's ears.

"Anson performed very well this time. We should also look forward to it here."

"I didn't notice it before, I thought it was just a vase, but it's different now."

“In fact, we could tell from the first scene of our crew that Anson is an actor with ideas, and this movie also proves this.”

"I can't believe it, I actually like the character of Joel very much this time. He was supposed to be a wimp, but Anson made him very charming."

"Don't worry, I think Anson is fine. It's Reese who might need to worry."

Praise, expectation, trust.

Anson had never expected that this day would come so soon, and that his acting skills would be so recognized and carry such huge expectations.

This is a good thing.

After all, people are finally looking forward to Anson's performance as an actor.

But at the same time, it’s also a bad thing.

The pressure from everywhere began to accumulate, and during this period, Anson suffered from unprecedented insomnia.

Even when working with Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks, Anson did not suffer from insomnia, but this time, Anson really faced the problem of insomnia on the set. On the surface, Anson half-jokingly said that it was just right, and the insomnia state perfectly matched Johnny's state, seamlessly connected.

In fact, the real situation is not that simple. Long-term insomnia can easily lead to a breakdown of concentration, making it impossible to stay focused when shooting.

Maybe, it's just a moment of distraction, but the movie camera will not miss it, and the actor will be out of character.

It is precisely because of this that Anson has been studying the role and the performance. After careful consideration, he chose to use a simple and rough way to get himself into the state last night:
Character possession.

However, now, his whole head was dizzy and he couldn't even feel the soreness in his muscles. His vision, hearing, touch, etc. had all become dull. Anson was not sure whether this was a good idea.

"...Anson?"

Lucas noticed, he didn't know much about acting but he was worried about Anson's condition.

Anson took a deep breath and waved his hand, "I'm fine."

Lucas didn't believe it, "Are you sure?"

Anson's mouth twitched slightly, but he couldn't lift it up. "It's too late to be uncertain. There's no way to regret it now."

Lucas, "Why not? If you're not in good shape, we can stop for a day, take a good rest, and recharge our batteries, and start again tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Anson raised his head and looked at Lucas with an expression that seemed like a smile.

Lucas was not worried. He said calmly, "This is my company, this is my project, I can do whatever I want. If anyone wants to gossip, they can leave at any time. I don't mind Hollywood saying that I am a tyrant."

Anson: "Haha."

He burst into laughter, but Anson managed to stand up. "It has nothing to do with them, but with me. I am learning how to perform. This is a process. I have to try it myself to know what is right and what is suitable. I am ready."

Lucas looked at Anson carefully and found a hint of stubbornness in those tired and sloppy brows, which made Lucas sigh softly.

The youngest son of the Wood family was the most stubborn and arrogant, with a mischievous and lawless character. When he was a child, he often caused strong protests from neighbors and school teachers, but the Wood couple always stood on the side of their child.

Not to mention that the Wood family has a tough and flamboyant eldest son.

Lucas knew that if Anson made up his mind, no one could change him, but he still said, "Anson, you don't have to compromise. No matter what happens, just do it. I'm here anyway, even in Hollywood."

Anson was immediately happy, "Don't worry, no one can make me feel wronged now."

Lucas let out a light breath and said nothing more, but he looked at Anson carefully and couldn't help but look at him twice more, his brows furrowed, his eyes full of weirdness.

Anson looked down at himself, "What's wrong?"

Lucas looked disgusted. "Aren't you going to change your clothes? Go take a shower and get ready. God, I thought you fell asleep lying at the door of the bathroom on your way to take a shower. You look so..."

Lucas declined to comment.

Anson blinked. "Is it bad?"

Lucas nodded relentlessly, "Very."

Anson grinned and said, "That's right, this means I succeeded. Okay, I'll go to the crew with this look."

Lucas: ???
