Superstar

"In my opinion, Charlie is an upright and kind-hearted young man. He is just a student in a preparatory school. He looks forward to entering an Ivy League school such as Harvard and Yale to start his life. He is elegant, gentle, Vigorous and ignorant at the same time, this is an age when he is exploring the world. He has some of his own ideas, but he is not firm enough. This is an age that is fluctuating. His outlook on life, values, and world outlook are being finalized. process."

At this moment, Hugo stood in front of the four people and talked freely. There was no tension before entering the conference room. It was not because he was no longer nervous, but because sufficient preparation gave him enough confidence in this issue. He can express his opinions eloquently.

　　 Hugo like this has an indescribable charm, vigorous, confident, warm but humble and gentle. In the eyes of Allen and others, they involuntarily listened carefully to Hugo’s remarks, and as a screenwriter, Bo Goodman’s understanding of the role was naturally more profound, and there was still nothing in his calm eyes. Any look, but only he himself knows that he is listening carefully, but his ears are sensitive.

"Such a young man does not seem to have too many bright spots on the surface. Maybe he is one of countless students who do nothing. If he is thrown into the crowd, he can't be found. But at the same time, I don't want to deny him. His excellence is not only outstanding in his studies, but also because of his inner kindness, which is also his most outstanding place."

Hugo confided all his understanding of Charlie's character in his head in one breath. After speaking, the tension was unknowingly thrown behind his head, "I want to show the kindness of a person within 30 seconds. Quality? I don’t know if it counts to cross the road with an old man. Other than that, I can’t do anything. If it’s the role of Lieutenant Colonel Slade, it’s possible.”

　　 Allen was amused by Hugo's last teasing, "Would you like to try a line from Lieutenant Colonel Slade? It looks like you are already prepared."

"Oh, no, no." Hugo waved his hand quickly, and took out the slightly broken script on his hand, and fell in the eyes of the four people in front of him. Hugo couldn't help but smiled awkwardly, and put the script again. Behind him, "I don't think I can perform better than Pacino. To be precise, I don't think I can manage the role of Lieutenant Colonel Slade."

　　 "Because of age?"

　　 "Not only is my age, my current acting skills are not enough." After Hugo finished speaking, he showed a sincere smile.

　　 "Why, don't you think you are a person with excellent acting skills?" It was director Martin who spoke. His expression now seems a lot lighter, and he can even see a smile in his eyes. However, Hugo devoted himself to the questions of the audition without realizing it.

　　 "No, I don't think so." Hugo answered directly without hesitation.

"Don't you know that if an actor does not have confidence in himself, it is difficult to convince others, even standing in front of the camera will become very difficult." Martin lowered his head and glanced at Hugo's resume. It is necessary to record the trajectory of Hugo after his debut in the "little restaurant". This work has become a mark of Hugo, allowing Martin to make accurate judgments.

"An actor needs to be confident, but at the same time an actor must have a full understanding of himself. I am not a person with outstanding acting skills, otherwise the headlines of recent newspapers will not see me, right?" The Golden Raspberry Award is the worst at this time Instead, the actor award has become a cover for Hugo, concealing the fact that his soul has traveled through. Although Hugo had been an actor for five years before that, he had never received formal acting learning at all, and all relied on watching movies and learning from those actors. Our interpretation of the role. "But I am willing to learn because I have enough talent, and I am willing to pay the corresponding sweat."

　　 Acting skills are not practiced in a day, even for people with talent. Hugo may not be strong enough now, but it does not mean that Hugo will still be weak a year later.

Hearing Hugo’s answer, Martin didn’t say anything, his eyes remained on Hugo’s resume, and the screenwriter Bo, who had been sitting next to him, said nothing at this moment, “Then I can know that you are Charlie. Did you prepare for the role audition?"

　　 "In fact, I did prepare a line for the audition." Hugo's words caused the four people in front of him to focus on himself again, which made him a little nervous. Hugo took a deep breath and asked, "Can I?"

　　 Allen nodded and gave permission.

　　 Hugo knows that this is the moment for him to show off his strength. He must show all the strength he currently possesses. The scene that Hugo prepared for the audition was the first time that Charlie entered the cabin to see Lieutenant Colonel Slade. It was very brief, but it focused on Charlie's first encounter with the grumpy Lieutenant Colonel as a student. Flustered and green.

　　 "Sir?" Hugo patted his palms as a knock on the door. After speaking, Hugo looked around, and suddenly realized: Joseph did not follow up. God, he is really slow to react, and he has only realized this until now. If Joseph is not there, then who will help him play the game? Hugo couldn't help being annoyed by his confusion, presumably Joseph hadn't been allowed to enter the meeting room, and he didn't realize it.

Just as Hugo hesitated whether to play the two roles alone, Bo's voice suddenly rang when the play continued, "Don't call me sir!" Bo is sixty years old this year, and his voice quality is as good as Al's. -Pacino still has a lot of similarities. Although the voice is a bit rigid and has no acting skills, it is just a match, which is enough for Hugo.

Hugo breathed a sigh of relief, a little nervous and a little stammered, and said, "I, I'm sorry." Hugo's gaze crossed the heads of the four judges, deliberately staggered the focus, and watched the chaotic shooting behind him. Eyes fluttered around unconsciously because of tension, "I mean'sir', sir."

　　 "Oh, you made an idiot, didn't you?"

Such blunt words made Hugo suddenly become restless. He looked back at the door and seemed to want to leave here. He wiped the sweat from his palms on both sides of his pants nervously, "No, sir...then, Uh, this..." Hugo wanted to find someone for help, because he couldn't find an accurate vocabulary to call him, but there was no one else around him. He looked at the blogger who was helping him with the scene in a panic. -Goodman, "Uh, lieutenant, yes, sir, middle..."

　　 "Lieutenant Colonel! I have never been downgraded to the fourth rank after twenty-six years of service."

　　 Hugo's gaze dropped involuntarily, revealing dazedness and helplessness, and slightly pursed his dry lips, standing jerkily in place, at a loss.

"Come in, idiot!" Bo didn't know where Hugo's performance ended, so he continued to read the lines, but Hugo raised his head and said with a slightly shy smile, "My performance is over." Hugo felt that the short performance was indeed a little too short.

　　 Different from the last audition for "Dahe Love", Hugo had a hearty feeling of pleasure after performing the lines. After performing this seemingly simple part today, Hugo seemed to have some vague experience.

　　 Acting skills are more than just making facial expressions and reading lines. If there is no way to combine the emotion of the lines with the facial expressions and communicate them together, then the image presented will only be a facial paralysis. The reason why acting can make the characters come alive is because the actors give the characters vivid media such as lines, expressions, and body to outline the characters.

　　 In fact, Hugo has always known this. Watching so many classic movies is not a piece of work, but it has not been until today that Hugo has truly realized this in his performances.

For example, in the scene just now, although it seemed to be just a few simple lines, it showed the honesty and kindness of Charlie, including the fact that he did not dare to fight back when he faced the strength of Lieutenant Colonel Slade. Softness, as well as the nervousness he generated over and over again about his mistakes, even had the idea of ​​running away, but because of his sense of responsibility, he chose to continue to stand in place, and then continue to make mistakes.

　　 This scene is the simplest way to present Charlie’s personality. This is also the reason why Hugo chose to audition for this scene on the spot. Tension, jerky, panic and other emotions have always existed during the audition process, and it would not be so difficult for Hugo to enter the situation. Judging from his performance just now, it is very good.

"This scene is only 30 seconds before and after, so why don't you show it at the beginning?" Although I have to admit that Hugo's performance was very good just now, Alan was not too excited, but forced himself to calm down. Down, continue to throw out the problem.

"Because I don’t want you to treat me as an idiot, but just come here and just come here and make a mess. I hope you know that I have done serious research on this character and found out the most suitable performance for Charlie’s personality. I hope you know my Work hard." Yu Guoguo told the truth, and straightforwardly frankly expressed his thoughts.

　　 The difficulty of this scene is actually not high. If Hugo would perform this scene as soon as he came up, he would be kicked out in less than a minute. Allen and others regarded it as lazy and lack of sincerity. But now after Hugo has expounded all his ideas, he will interpret this play again, and accurately grasp the character of Charlie, and this play has achieved the effect of adding points.

　　 "Then have you ever thought that before you perform this scene, we will let you leave." Alan was not so foolish, and still asked reluctantly.

Hugo couldn't help showing a shy smile, but his eyes were still clear and firm to look at the four people in front of him, "No, in fact, I originally prepared another scene, which is about three minutes long, but after coming in, it was too nervous. You only gave me thirty seconds again, which made me a little nervous. I thought it would be impossible to read the lines with the script, so...in the end I just had a clever idea, and then we were here."
