Superstar

Chapter 1193: Burned out

Hugo doesn't know the situation of Endeavour's elite brokerage company. He must focus on his current job.

That day, Leonardo stayed in the squad for a little half an hour before leaving unconsciously. However, after Leonardo left, the "Seven Deadly Sins" crew did not immediately restart filming. Hugo walked to the side by himself, letting his thoughts settle down. The discussion with Leonardo just now gave Hugo some inspiration. The most important thing is that Hugo has more of his own understanding of the role of Anonymous, and he needs to sort out his ideas.

But Hugo found that this time it seemed not so easy.

Prior to this, Hugo had encountered difficulties in acting several times before and after, but he handled it very well. He quickly entered the state, grasped the key points, and made breakthroughs, starting from "smelting fragrance and knowing women" to " Before sunrise", it can almost be said to be invincible and invincible.

But this time, Hugo knew what he should improve, but found that his brain was in chaos. It was very difficult for him to find an accurate direction. This feeling was terrible.

In fact, there is no problem with Hugo’s foothold in his performance. Just look at his first scene of the "Seven Deadly Sins". Hugo completed the task exceptionally well, which proves that Hugo’s analysis of Anonymous is Right, Hugo's way of acting is also correct. But why did Hugo be restrained after entering the role state?

When Hugo tried to give the Anonymous character more content, when Hugo tried to inject more vitality into the Anonymous with more subtle changes, he was a little powerless and even disrupted his performance rhythm, so that he fell into confusion. Is Hugo's method wrong, or Hugo's idea is simply unnecessary, or is Hugo's ambition not in line with his current ability?

Hugo tried to clarify a line of thought, but found that there was confusion in his mind. To be precise, there was no spark. Leonardo’s words, Hugo’s own understanding, past performance experience, and the previous construction of Anonymous, all stay in Hugo’s mind perfectly, but when Hugo tries to combine these things, they collide with sparks. , But there is no inspiration at all, the brain is empty like a sleeping Arctic Ocean.

This gave Hugo a sense of frustration. He could clearly feel that he was working in the right direction, but he didn't know how to use his strength.

In fact, for many people, Hugo's attempt is unnecessary. Because Hugo’s current methodological performances have been successful, "Schindler's List" won him the best supporting actor statuette, and "Pulp Fiction" received a Cannes actor and an Oscar nomination, both It shows that Hugo's acting skills are now recognized by everyone. So, since there is already a set of viable performance methods, why change?

Al Pacino, Dustin Hoffman, Jack Nicholson, and Robert De Niro are all typical representatives of the method school, and in fact, they have always adhered to their own performance methods and achieved After success, he hardly changed his performance method.

This is almost a natural proposition: Since this method has been successful, why bother to change it?

Unless this approach encounters a bottleneck or inevitably goes downhill, and is forced to make a change, that is another matter. But obviously this does not apply to Hugo's current state.

But Hugo didn’t think so. He was not an actor from an academic background. His knowledge of performance was more pieced together. He learned some academic system knowledge from Charlize Theron. I learned the actual performance experience from the old drama bones such as Al and Jack, and realized the charm of performance from hundreds of thousands of movie-watching experiences, and finally summarized my own performance method through my own continuous attempts and continuous efforts. .

Although the current method is effective, Hugo knows that he still has many shortcomings. He is eager to absorb more, but he is eager to go further. Even if the current performance is partially successful, it does not mean that he is a success. Actors. Therefore, Hugo has always been eager to make progress and breakthroughs in acting.

The role of Anonymous in "Seven Deadly Sins" seemed to open the door for Hugo to the next stage. In the first scene, he even touched the threshold, which made him even more unwilling to miss it.

Thinking of this, Hugo was a bit unwilling to pound the hard marble of the balcony, and the slight sharp tingling sensation from his palm made Hugo's brows slightly frowned. Suddenly, a gleam of light flashed in Hugo's mind: He couldn't find the right power point and couldn't sort out his thoughts. Could it be because he had too many thoughts?

On the one hand, Hugo was thinking about the empiricism of method-based acting, and on the other hand, he pondered the expressionist’s precise requirements for basic skills and emotional expression. The connection between the roles is also misjudged.

Is there such a possibility: These have formed the basis of his performance, and they have become obstacles to his further breakthrough!

So, what if he zeroed out all his thoughts and started from scratch? Overthrow all my own empiricism and all self-understanding, return to the essence of the role, put aside performance methods and acting methods, re-dismantle the complicated ideas, treat them as brand-new materials, and build my own from the basics bit by bit. Thinking system, what about this?

"Fate proves it repeats, when the explosion appears in the sky. What I need is what I cannot find in this world. And you stand there, waiting for me to understand all this: we build the world, and then It is completely destroyed; we build the world, and then burn it to death (burn.it.). Can’t wait to burn it to dust."

The old will not go, and the new will not come. In many cases, to build a brand new world, the old order must first be overthrown. This is inevitable. The raging electronic piano sound mixed with the mighty drums played in Hugo’s mind, just like a revelation from the sky, igniting all the chaotic thoughts in Hugo’s mind, and the darkness faded bit by bit, gradually showing The buried light came.

It's easy to say, but in fact it is not an easy task. Hugo has been honing his acting skills from scratch. Although it has only been three years since "smelling a woman", it actually includes all the experiences he and Lancaster have experienced in the previous 25 years. Comprehension and feelings, the complexities of life and the charm of performance are combined, and countless precipitations have ushered in the continuous explosion of the past three years.

But now, Hugo has to personally remove from his mind the performance methods he has learned for a long time, and rebuild from the most basic expressions of joy, anger, sorrow, and joy, relearning the understanding and understanding of the role, and relearning to use it correctly. It’s a very difficult and painful process to correctly interpret the true emotions of the character in the way of expressing emotions, which is almost equal to self-denial.

It's like... It's like tearing open the wound with your own hands, witnessing the burst of blood, but still can only clenched his teeth.

"Blood and dust are stacked together, as the rising flames climb into the clouds. I want to repair all this, but I can't stop tearing it apart. And you stand there, standing in the flames of fire, and I am in Waiting there, waiting for you to understand: We built the world, and then completely destroyed it; we built the world, and then burned it to death. I can’t wait to burn it to dust."

The violent melody notes are like punches hitting Hugo's mind one after another, making him lose all the ability to resist. He can only stand stiff and exhausted in the burning flames, letting himself be. His thoughts were burned out and turned into a mass of ashes.

The barren grassland destroyed by the fire was lifeless, but in the silence, a ray of sunlight slowly lit up, supporting the endless darkness with a faint light.

Who is Anonymous? Just an anonymous person. The thoughts in Hugo’s mind about the role of Anonymous began to pop up little by little in his empty mind. At first it was just a trickle, then it began to become a gurgling stream, and then it became a billowing river. In the end, it turned into a Pentium Waterfall, and rumblingly played a crazy melody in Hugo's mind, causing all the cells in Hugo's body to start roaring.

Hugo turned all the mixed thoughts in his heart into rap, using the most brutal, direct and simple way, leaving the melody aside and fetters, restoring the purest form of the lyrics, and shouting loudly.

"You give me a definite answer. You lift me up high, and I will believe the lies you tell. I am a soldier, and you are a king. When I lower my head and kiss your ring, I am not prepared to stab me. , You don’t have the right to own the crown anymore. I assisted you to ascend the summit, but you let me down. When you stumble in front of your horse, I will take action and fan the flames when you are burned."

Hugo knows that experience can be the source of motivation for continuous progress, but one day empiricism will become a hindrance to his further development. Then, at this time, he must learn to abandon it ~www.readwn.com~ and use a brand new one. Look at the problem from a perspective.

When the melody and thought overlapped, Hugo's mood began to recover again, and the tens of thousands of thoughts in his mind all collided together. The water splashing under the sun reflected the dazzling light, about Leon Nardo's words, about his thinking about Anonymous, about his excavation of acting... all kinds of thoughts began to bloom with the original sparks little by little, making Hugo's eyebrows mixed with gloom little by little. The dots dissipated and disappeared, as if they were burned to the ground.

"And you are there, waiting for a showdown with me: We built all this just to destroy it completely, we built all this just to burn it to death, we can’t wait to get it Burn it to dust. So when you fail, I will wait for an opportunity. When you get into trouble, I will fan the wind to help burn it. We can’t wait to burn it to dust."

The creation of this song "burn.it." is not difficult, the whole process is done in one go, but Hugo knows that his thinking on acting is only just starting now, when he put all the previous After all his understanding and experience were burned, a brand new door with acting skills burst into light before his eyes. At this moment, he was standing in front of the door, and he could touch the door by raising his hand, and he could even feel it behind the door. In the magical world, all he needs to do is... raise his hand, push it hard, push it away!
