Chapter 790 Miscellaneous Clues
In his previous life, Anson remembered reading a report about the behind-the-scenes staff recalling Kate’s working methods.
The report stated that Kate knows that she is not a gifted actor. She believes that hard work can make up for weakness. Therefore, before every work, she will devote herself wholeheartedly to character research, study the script, study the characters, study the dialogue, and outline the characters. The edges, context and performance framework of the character, and then understand and digest the character in your own way.
Finally, put your own stamp on the character.
Perhaps, Kate did not live in a role for six months like Daniel Day-Lewis and was completely immersed in the role and could not extricate herself. She still carried the research style of a good British academic student; but There's no doubt that her passion for acting is another cut.
When she entered the crew, she knew what she was doing and how she should do it.
For actors, this is very rare.
Especially after experiencing the glory of "Titanic", it is even more rare for Kate to still be able to return to her role and work as an actress down to earth.
So, Kate has her own way of performing.
If it is an ordinary script, it is incomplete if it is not complete, because the story line, character settings, etc. are already there, and the impact is not obvious.
But this is the script of Charlie Kaufman, "Puppet Life" and "Adapted Screenplay". Even if you hold it in your hand, even if you read it over and over again, it is still in the fog. It may not be able to solve the problem at all after reading it three or five times. Further reading and understanding; not to mention an incomplete script?
An incomplete script is like a waste product in your hand, with a mess of timelines and story lines that makes it impossible to start.
At this time, Anson realized that this was a problem -
He knew that Charlie Kaufman had never been able to complete the script, so the film needed to be shot with the script unfinished. ; But because he has past life memories, he knows the complete blueprint of the entire movie, and also knows the development of the characters and the story, which does not affect his interpretation and interpretation of the characters.
However, Kate is not.
What's more, Kate's preparation process for the role was originally different, so she naturally faced more gaps that needed to be filled and questions that needed to be answered.
No wonder!
No wonder Kate is always immersed in her own thoughts. She has no intention or energy to socialize. Her brain, overwhelmed by question marks and blank spaces, cannot function normally. Her posture is obviously different from usual. Everything in front of her is also... There is a reasonable explanation.
After a little nervousness and anxiety, Anson found his calmness -
In this way, he felt more at ease.
Anson also showed his professional attitude and returned to his work as an actor, "So, you didn't understand the script?"
Subconsciously, Kate was on guard. She thought Anson was going to ridicule and attack her, but a moment later After a pause, he raised his head and looked at Anson. His eyes were full of sincerity and frankness, which was completely different from what he had imagined.
Taking a deep breath, Kate nodded and admitted, "Yes, I didn't fully understand."
"I mean, is this the first time we've met or the second time we've met? Meeting?”
Anson blinked, “Our first time”
"Ha. Ha. Very funny." Kate was expressionless and laughed dryly twice, not smiling at all. "You know what I mean, Joel and Clementine."
After a pause, Kate waved her hands, "I'm sorry. I must look crazy and irrational now, meeting for the first time without a formal greeting, and then standing on a train platform going crazy. God, even I can't stand it. Myself. Maybe we should forget about work for a while."
Anson put his hands behind his back and leaned forward slightly, "Are you sure?"
Kate bit her lower lip slightly at this time. You could see the playful look in Anson's eyes. She thought about it seriously, then raised her chin and started to fight back, "How do I know you have the answer?" "Hey, you are just a big boy with limited acting experience. You You may not know as much about the script and the characters as I do.”
Anson did not answer immediately, but pondered, "Then why are you still here? Why are we still discussing this issue? Maybe you should ask the director, or directly ask the screenwriter, instead of provoking me here and waiting for me to speak. "
"I didn't know that you also read "Sun Tzu's Art of War""
Kate tilted her head slightly, "I should be surprised that you actually know 'Sun Tzu's Art of War'."
"Haha, each other." Anson laughed heartily.
A smile finally appeared on Kate's cheek, "I heard."
Anson:?
Kate, "Because of your persistence, I got this role."
Anson waved his hands repeatedly, "There may be some misunderstandings here. I am not qualified to fight for you. You But Kate Winslet."
Kate shrugged lightly, "I know. Even if I am Kate Winslet, I still can't compete for the role in "Titanic". Thanks to James Cameron and Leonardo DiCaprio; in terms of performance, I should be classified as an idol now.”
“Obviously I am Kate Winslet. , but I am in a position where I am neither up nor down, nor forward nor backward. It seems that I already have some status, but in fact I have nothing.”
"So, it is precisely because of this that you are willing to vouch for me and win this role that I really, really, really like, and I need to thank you."
Kate, you are a smart person. It was then, it is now, and it will be the same in the future.
So, in Hollywood, which eats people but never spits out their bones, maybe Kate has never been a top star in the pyramid, nor has she ever entered the 20 million club; but she has always been an indispensable existence in Hollywood, until Twenty years later, he still has his own place in Hollywood.
Kate noticed that Anson was about to speak, and this time she stopped Anson with her eyes.
"Having said that, since you won the role for me, it means that you are looking forward to this cooperation as much as I am. Therefore, I believe you should not be unprepared."
< br>
Everyone says that Anson is a vase, but Kate doesn't think so. Just like Leonardo, prejudice is often blinded by appearance, so that the soul under the skin is ignored.
In the eyes of others, Kate is already superior, while Anson is a rising star. Their positions are completely incomparable, but Kate has no such idea.
What resume, what seniority, what age, all are just clouds. In Hollywood, old-timers who cling only to their qualifications will eventually be eliminated as fools.
So, when working with Anson, Kate had no airs at all and never meant to look down on Anson.
In fact, on the contrary, Kate still has some expectations——
Handsome guy, who doesn't like him?
Hollywood allows men to like young and beautiful actresses, so why doesn’t it allow women to like young and handsome actors?
Sure enough, it lived up to expectations.
In the first encounter, Kate was already impressed by Anson; and it was a joy to watch.
Kate raised her chin slightly and looked at Anson carefully, "So, you know the answer? Did you understand the script? Or did Charlie discuss the complete idea with you?"
