Chapter 1070 Interweaving of fiction and reality
There is no doubt that the focus of this scene is entirely on Christen.
Kristen tried to be more restrained, trying to avoid handling things like a bloody soap opera, with surprises, and trying to avoid bluffing like a youth campus love movie.
The script discussion before the start of filming has already told Kristen a cruel truth:
Sony Columbia hopes that Mary-Jane is a vase and plays the vase role honestly, with no arc or performance. unimportant.
Kristen knew this, and she hadn't forgotten it, but that didn't mean she allowed her performance to smell... of plastic.
Especially in front of Anson.
Because Kristen knows how successful Anson's performance in "Spider-Man" is. The role of Peter Parker can capture the hearts of the general public, and it is inseparable from Anson's fresh and simple performance. Kristen does not want I looked too cheap in front of Anson's performance.
Unfortunately, it’s not easy.
On the contrary, Sam hopes that the effect will be more dramatic and a little more exaggerated, because this kind of soap opera quality is exactly what Sony Columbia is pursuing——
Since the first part of the series is close to the campus of youth, the second part of the series should continue this texture and even capture the preferences of young people like "The Graduate".
This also pushed Kristen into an awkward position, where it was difficult to grasp the right balance. She had to find a balance between her own persistence and the director's requirements.
So, I hit the wall again and again, and got stuck again and again, but the details were still wrong after all.
Frustration is inevitable.
Now, the opportunity presented itself again, Kristen secretly told herself: You can do it! Be sure to believe in yourself!
Then, he turned to look in the direction of the monitor and raised his hand to indicate that he was ready.
The rustling and restlessness in the theater all quieted down, and it entered shooting mode.
The lights are focused on the stage, and there are no lights in the auditorium. However, in order to ensure that Kristen can handle the line of sight, the auditorium cannot be completely dark. A floor lamp is left where Peter Parker should appear for convenience. Kristen successfully found the exact spot where the performance broke out.
Kristen closed her eyes, immersed herself in the character, carefully explored the emotional context of the character, and sorted it out bit by bit.
“Start shooting!”
In my ears, there was the sound of typing.
But Kristen was not in a hurry to speak her lines. When filming "Warm and Inner Light", Kristen learned an important habit from Kate Winslet and Anson:
Establish a performance framework.
Don’t just follow your feelings, but be clear about the character’s status, in this scene, the direction of the emotional context, the changes in the character relationship, etc., and finally find a framework to release the energy bit by bit. Come out, and then allow yourself to lose control in the frame and give yourself to the feeling.
This scene is not that difficult. She can see the context and framework, so she just needs to be patient and clear her mind.
One second, two seconds -
She was ready.
Opening her eyes, she looked at her co-star, the co-star in the stage play, with a look that indicated she was ready.
On the stage.
A man stood, turned to face the woman sitting at the afternoon tea table, and said eloquently, "Actually, I'm not a bad person, so don't think of me as a bad person."
The woman looked at the man with a smile on her face and said, "If you are not, then you are deceiving us. This behavior is inexcusable."
"I hope you are not a double-faced person. Bad, in fact, I am very kind at heart, so this is too hypocritical..."
The woman smiled skillfully and with ease. Her eyes inadvertently swept across the audience seats, and she easily captured that person in each face - —
Anson Wood.
Kristen was stunned, completely stunned, her mind went blank, she had forgotten all the performances and roles, and even lost the ability to react.
transfixed.
The conversation in her ears continued, "Of course, I used to be a little bad." However, Kristen didn't hear it at all. Her ears automatically blocked all surrounding sounds, and she fell into the rabbit hole and entered the completely different world. In a different world.
Anson? Why is Anson here? When did Anson arrive on set?
Wait a minute, or is this your own illusion?
But, how should she face Anson? Although Sony Columbia ultimately failed to replace the actor, Anson kept his job; but has Jake Gyllenhaal contacted Anson? If so, did they say it was open? If not, what should her posture be?
Honestly, I couldn't tell the difference between those busy and complicated thoughts. They surged up one after another, and the taste of joy mixed with bitterness spread on the tip of my tongue.
Kristen didn’t even have time to think about the performance or the role, nor did she have the time to worry about the filming. She just froze and stayed in place.
For one second, for such a short second, time and space all pressed the pause button, and it seemed that everything else was no longer important.
Then.
Kristen saw the smile on Anson's lips rising, and said silently, "Hey."
Gently, sunnyly, brightly, lighting up a ray of dawn in the endless night, falling On top of Kristen's heart.
Those upsets and random thoughts seem to no longer matter at this moment.
A smile quietly crept up the corners of Kristen's mouth, slowly blooming, and she also said silently, "Hey."
——"I Very happy.”
someone shouted.
On the side of the stage, someone shouted in a low voice, but the problem is that the sound effect of the theater is very good. If this person wants Kristen to hear his words, it means that the audience in the front row of the theater can also heard.
Huh? Wait, who is shouting? What's going on?
The atmosphere is slightly subtle.
At this time, you can see that Anson raised his eyebrows slightly and signaled with his eyes.
Kristen slowed down for a moment, watching Anson's expression. With a sudden inspiration, she pulled away from the impact of her thoughts and subconsciously looked around:
Who am I, where am I, what am I doing do what?
——"I'm very happy."
On the side stage, the voice was reminding her word by word, catching Christen's eyes and looking over.
Kristen saw the stage manager standing on the side stage with pleading written on his face. He looked at her with extremely sad eyes and encouraged her to continue.
However, Kristen was a little confused.
Who is she, Kristen Dunst or Mary Jane?
The fourth wall between performance and reality, film and life completely disappears.
When Kristen saw Anson, and when Mary-Jane saw Peter, two completely different but familiar scenes merged together, seamlessly completing the connection, joy and tension, anxiety and joy. The contradictory emotions rolled into a ball, surging in his chest like a hurricane.
So, what’s going on now?
She is Mary-Jane and she is Kristen.
So, how should she respond?
True and false, false and false, false and true, all intertwined.
Subconsciously, Kristen looked in the direction of the monitor for help. Should they NG?
The sight just drifted away, and then shrank back. She has wasted enough time here today, if she continues to delay...
Before Kristen realized it, her eyes fell on Anson again.
So, what now?
