From Flower Vase to Film Emperor in Hollywood

Jake Gyllenhaal's reason told him that he should turn around and leave, that he should be under the car and not in it, and that he didn't want to watch the filming of this scene.

However, his emotions took over, his feet were firmly planted on the spot, and he even held his breath and widened his eyes, for fear of missing any detail.

Such a simple scene, but the emotional context took continuous sharp turns, and the amount of information was obviously overloaded. It was like swallowing a jujube whole, impossible to digest, which was a severe test for the actors, the audience, and the crew.

However, the two actors relied on delicate and rich performances to unravel the tangled mess, sort it out clearly, and truly allow the audience to feel the moment of excitement, igniting a chemical reaction.

Kristen performed brilliantly, showing a sense of layering that shouldn't appear in commercial films, from self-blame to confusion to elation, then turning to curiosity, gradually palpitating, and finally moved. The intricate emotional context was clearly visible, successfully allowing the audience to follow her on this roller coaster.

And Anson?

Perfect.

His frankness and timidity, his strength and vulnerability, his affection and shyness, completely gave Peter Parker a fresh and vivid soul, truly showing the audience the unique temperament of this Spider-Man.

In fact, from the perspective of acting difficulty, Anson's segment was not as complex, chaotic, or profound as Kristen's. This confession was relatively simple, but why couldn't everyone's eyes, including Kristen's, leave Anson?

Eyes.

Anson's eyes brought a unique texture to Peter Parker, not only showing the cautious and contradictory mentality, but also showing the sincerity and vulnerability behind the frank confession, successfully guiding Kristen to complete a difficult performance and fully enter the scene.

Throughout the entire scene, eyes simply could not leave Anson.

At that moment, Anson was the absolute focus, making it impossible to look away.

It wasn't until the filming ended that Jake finally remembered that he needed to breathe, panting heavily, his eyes filled with eager light, excited and亢奋, every cell in his body screaming.

However, the whole place was silent.

Jake was full of elation but received no response, so he couldn't help but turn his head to look around:

"Family", "Isn't it wonderful?", "Shouldn't you be cheering?", "Isn't it good?", "Are you seeing the same thing as me?"… …

On those surprised and shocked faces, Jake finally found the expression he was expecting. Between face to face, the blood began to boil.

Clap. Clap clap clap.

Applause, sparsely sounded, but after eye contact, it became more and more intense, smiles rising, accompanied by a lot of whistles and cheers.

It was very lively.

Sam was about to leave the monitor and go forward to discuss some details with the two actors, when he saw a figure rushing out ahead of him.

Sam: ???

Kristen was a little dazed. She was still immersed in the emotions of the performance, her heart surging, her thoughts running wild, and she couldn't recover for a while.

Kristen was a little shy and a little flustered. She was so deeply immersed in the scene that it was difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion. This was the first time ever, and she had no experience at all.

Then, Kristen saw Jake coming towards her.

Oh no!

Subconsciously, Kristen avoided eye contact, concealing her embarrassment.

Although they hadn't done anything intimate just now, and this was filming, actors' professional qualities should allow them to distinguish between work and life, and more importantly, she and Jake had nothing at all; but her wildly beating heart made Kristen also a little confused.

She didn't want to face Jake, at least not in this state.

She needed to sort herself out.

Taking two deep breaths in a row, she regained her composure and hurriedly looked up, and then Kristen saw Jake open his arms and rush towards… Anson's embrace like a sheepdog pouncing on its owner, hugging him tightly.

Kristen: … …

"Dude, well done!"

"Wow, I mean, excellent, really excellent."

"Have you continued to take advanced courses since then? Compared to when we last met, you've simply been reborn. I'm not saying it wasn't good last time, but today was amazing."

"Really, amazing!"

"How did you do it? At that moment, the character completely possessed you."

Admiring, one sentence after another, Jake didn't hold back his praise at all.

"So, have you been secretly in love with her for a lifetime but never dared to speak up, and then used this opportunity to express your feelings in someone else's name?"

"A secret confession?"

"Hoo hoo, hoo hoo hoo, finally bold for once, really excellent performance."

Although Jake hadn't read the script and didn't know the ins and outs of the story, in this scene just now, Anson's performance contained all the key information, and Jake accurately interpreted the psychological state.

Anson was also caught off guard.

He showed a smile, "It's Peter Parker confessing to Mary Jane, it's Peter." He quietly reminded Jake not to misunderstand.

Then, Anson gently patted Jake on the back and kindly reminded him, "Kristen also contributed an excellent performance. We completed this scene together."

Anson gave Jake a look: Don't forget that you changed your mind and came to visit the set today, not to watch the performance, but for—

Jake finally noticed Anson's gaze and followed the clues to find Kristen's existence, but for a moment, he was still immersed in the play and couldn't regain his senses, looking at Kristen with a face full of admiration.

"Yes, yes, yes, I like your performance."

"I mean, not as much as I like Anson's, but I still like it very much."

Anson: … …

Kristen's smile froze at the corner of her mouth, "Thank you."

Jake was completely immersed in the excitement of discussing acting skills and didn't notice Kristen's abnormality. He was still talking non-stop, "I like your handling of the eyes. I can see the emotional changes, but the expression…"

Anson couldn't bear to look at this scene, miserable, it was too miserable.

Anson watched the smile on Kristen's mouth gradually stiffen, and couldn't help but mourn for Jake: God, who will stop this fool?

Cough cough.

Before Anson could save the situation, a coughing sound came from the side, and all the words that Jake hadn't had time to say were cut off. Following the sound, he looked over and then saw the "Sloth Lightning Emoji" director.

"Director, I… I'm sorry…" A polite child, Jake immediately apologized.

Sam's expression still didn't change, "It's okay, we're all as excited as you are."

Jake, "Hehe."

Sam saw that Jake didn't react, so he had to directly state the situation in front of him, "Jake, you are very welcome to visit the set, but now, can you give me and the actors some space? We need to discuss some work."

Jake suddenly understood, raised two thumbs up, "Of course, no problem. Good luck to you. Oh, God, I really love this job."

With a turn, Jake hopped out, even giving the crew members a wave of high-fives, the whole scene was lively.

Just like a beagle that hasn't been walked for three days.

Sam withdrew his gaze, and then, Anson immediately explained, "Director, Jake isn't usually like this, I swear."
