Chapter 1112: Appearance
There is no doubt that Anson is clever.
There is no aggressiveness, no argumentation, and no momentum. The whole process maintains a calm and dialogue attitude, quietly destroying the opponent, and quietly gaining the upper hand.
When Reese is backed into a difficult corner, she is completely unaware of Anson's ability to turn the tables as she also discovers a blind spot -
Correct, if she doesn't want to She was working with Anson but was reluctant to give up the project, so she followed Anson all the way and expected what would happen?
Could it be that deep in her heart, she already had the answer?
Now, what should we do?
If it were an ordinary person, everything would be in chaos at this time; but Reese was not.
Not only that, but after a slight confusion, Reese stood firm and grabbed a key from the mess of thoughts. She realized that she was completely involved in Anson's rhythm.
How did Anson do it?
Does this mean that Anson is definitely not just the vase he looks like?
When Reese complains that people are biased because of her work and her appearance, is she also biased because of Anson's work and Anson's appearance?
So, is she becoming the kind of person she hates the most, and is she imposing treatment on Anson that she is unwilling to bear?
Reese calmed down, her thoughts were raging, and she decided to take back the initiative first.
“You’ve been carrying your guitar, why? To get into character?”
In the past few days, Anson has been carrying the guitar on his back, going in and out, back and forth. No matter where he goes, the guitar will never leave his side.
To be honest, Reese was a little scornful and looked down upon such an action——
Because it was just a superficial act, just showing off to look cool, and it could not touch Johnny Cash at all. nature.
Going to the supermarket, to the restaurant, to the bathroom, even Johnny Cash would not run around with his guitar, but Anson carried the guitar awkwardly, as if he was completely integrated with the guitar.
Such a move is too deliberate, too artificial, but ineffective.
To sum it up: a show.
When the paparazzi photographed Anson, and when passers-by saw Anson, they marveled at how much effort Anson had put into fitting into the character; however, in fact, when it comes to actually standing in front of the camera, if you can’t act, you can’t. When it comes to acting, you won’t suddenly transform into a god of music and acting just because you held a guitar for three months.
Such superficial skills, the more empty the bottle, the more enthusiastic it is.
Reese knew this when she was studying. There is a type of students who carry books wherever they go, as if books are the best friends in the world, but in fact they just lie down If you sleep on books, your head will be empty, and you will always be at the bottom of the exam.
And in Hollywood, it’s everywhere.
Therefore, Reese never cared.
But now, Reese is a little shaken. Judging from Anson's intelligence, he should disdain such superficial skills, because it is too clumsy and too superficial.
But why?
Following Reese's line of sight, Anson looked down at his guitar and smiled, "Yes. To experience the role."
Reese:...
Dislocated jaw.
Anson actually admitted it? Just admit it so easily?
Is this stupidity and ignorance, or is it wisdom and foolishness?
For a moment, Reese was confused and even forgot how to speak. The thoughts in her mind blurted out, "But why? Why use such a rough method?"
Anson Noticing Reese's "aggressiveness," she was trying to take the initiative; but this time, Anson wasn't going to interrupt Reese.
"Simple may mean rough; it may also mean intuitive."
"In the 1950s and 1960s, the music equipment at that time was not complete and advanced." "Many times, singers used Just go on stage and perform with a guitar. If you are lucky, you will have a microphone; if you are not lucky, the microphone and speakers may become obstacles to the performance."
"So, the singer. Our most important partner is our guitar."
"Country, rock and roll."
Anson still seemed unhurried. He and Reese stood in the supermarket parking lot, bathing in the sunshine, chatting like old friends.
Occasionally, some figures pass by, but they don't even bother to look at them for a moment. Everyone is busy with their own lives and has no time to pay attention to the two figures in the parking lot.
“In that era, there were countless people who used music to change their lives, use music to create art, and use music to make sounds, so Woodstock was born later.”
“People believe that, He can use music to change society and change the world. "
"So, there are too many singers who have music dreams; but due to lack of publicity means, countless dreams can only sleep in the ice and snow. "
"They don't even have a rental house. They can only move around in different friends' houses and go around in different bars, trying to find performance opportunities."
"Once the opportunity comes, they need to perform at any time. Perform at any time.”
“The guitar is their only support and a tool for survival.”
“No matter where you go, carrying a guitar means opportunity and hope. Hope; but if not, even if the opportunity arises, I will not be able to seize it. "
"You ask me why I carry my guitar around like a fool anytime and anywhere. "
“Because I’m trying to find the feeling I had half a century ago in 2003, because I’m trying to understand what music means to their lives, because I’m trying to feel how they carried all their dreams and lives on their backs and wandered around. Status.”
For everything, I still need to thank Anson’s personal favorite movie-
“The Ballad of Drunken Country”.
In this movie, the directors Coen brothers depict a world of losers, struggling to hold on to a ray of dream in the hot winter. New York in the 1960s gave birth to countless great people. The singers also drowned out countless talented and living souls.
It is difficult to truly feel their situation and atmosphere at that time if we only recall that era through pictures and words, but we can still feel the struggle and ending flowing deep in our souls through the movie screen.
In real life, Johnny Cash was successful, unparalleled success; but Johnny still lost himself in the whirlpool of fame and fortune.
Nowadays, it is somewhat similar to the 1960s. Rock and roll is also disappearing, while pop and dance music are booming. The music market is languishing, but pop superstars continue to rise. Anson is trying to feel the pulse of the times——< br>
It’s not just about playing Johnny Cash. This is a step further than imitating Johnny Cash. It’s about feeling the collision between Johnny Cash and the entire era, and feeling the kind of life under the magnificent era. state.
Performance should not be just a poor imitation.
If you cannot understand the atmosphere and power conveyed by that era, then the actor is destined to be unable to recreate Johnny Cash's state in that era.
So, even when heading to the supermarket, the guitar was of no use at all, but Anson still showed up with it on his back.
It’s like a show.
