Renly really, really enjoyed working on "The Lobster."

On the one hand, this comedy film allows Renly to try to interpret humor in a serious way of performing, and change the temperament of the entire performance through changes in the rhythm of eyes, tone and movements. This is really a very wonderful and very interesting thing. ; On the other hand, the script and the story itself have the possibility of in-depth exploration, which also makes the characters have more longitude and latitude, and the combination of performance and plot can collide with more sparks, which is why Renly has always been passionate about performance. part.

All in all, Renly can really enjoy it.

Thanks to the wonderful performance of the actors, the shooting progress of "The Lobster" was very smooth, at least the hotel scene before entering the forest was smooth sailing.

The smooth shooting schedule allowed the cast and crew to finish get off work on time, and then... participate in the crew's scrabble game, or relax, or discuss the role and script with Oggs, and build for the second half of the forest scene. For more information, complete the scriptwriting.

Tonight, after filming and dinner, Renly, Whishaw, and John left the hotel, and the group drove to the small town of Sneem, because according to the feedback from the staff, it was the only restaurant in the town. There's a buster-keaton special in theaters tonight.

Buster Keaton is a slightly less familiar name to the average movie buff or amateur moviegoer; but to the veteran movie buff, it's one of the greatest comedians of all time: On Charlie Choo The battle between Belling and Buster Keaton over who was the greatest comedian of the mime era never ceased.

Slightly different from Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton is known as a "cold joker". He was born in a family of jugglers. He was influenced by juggling and burlesque since he was a child, and gradually transformed into a A creative performing artist, his performances have their own unique charm -

Playing a role is always expressionless, even in scenes of panic or fear or admiration, he is still solemn and awe-inspiring, but he is able to create a visual image that fits his inner emotional state through his body language. emotions and emotions are conveyed to the audience.

It is true that Charlie Chaplin is a master of comedy of a generation, but Buster Keaton's historical status is no less, "The General", "Sherlock Holmes II", "Seven Chances", "Hospitality" The works are all classics worthy of being recorded in history. It is a pity that this comedy master has never been able to get rid of the problem of alcoholism. The golden period of his career lasted only about six years, and then his artistic creation ability plummeted due to alcohol problems. Coupled with the rapid rise of sound films, This also accelerated the fall of the comedy king, and was drowned in the bright starlight of Hollywood.

To this day, Buster Keaton is nowhere near as famous as Charlie Chaplin among young moviegoers. But in fact, from an artistic point of view, Keaton at his peak is not only not inferior to Chaplin, but may even be better than Chaplin. "The General" is at the forefront of many authoritative comedy lists.

It was a huge surprise to learn that a movie theater in the small town of Sneem was willing to show the Buster-Keaton special.

Not only because he's a comedy master, but because he's a master of the "sneak comedian" who is best at conveying absurd humour through body language with a dead face, no doubt, this. For the actors who are filming "The Lobster", it is undoubtedly a rare learning opportunity - reviewing the past and learning new things, maybe combining their roles, they can get other inspirations in the process of watching the movie.

So Renly decided to go to the town cinema to watch a movie after a day's work, accompanied by Whishaw and John.

It is a little surprising that in the crew, three people with completely different personalities, styles, and characteristics became good friends unexpectedly, just like David, the lame man and the big tongue man formed a small team in the movie. , the three actors are always gathered together to talk and laugh.

John's humor, Whishaw's delicacy and Renly's wit, all in a wonderful harmony, facilitated tonight's outing together.

Dubbed "Men's Night Date" by Olivia.

"...I've watched 'The Photographer' but it's just clips, I've seen it accidentally on a TV channel before, the short clips are over quickly, and to be honest, that wasn't Keaton's peak either, I'm now It can be said that the conflict between Keaton and MGM can already be seen at that time; but I have to admit that Keaton's body language is really excellent, and improvisation is undoubtedly the source of his talent." Renly told the story from his memory.

Whishaw then agreed, "Unfortunately, MGM didn't think so, so they 'killed' Keaton."

John had other opinions, "It's not so much MGM that killed Keaton, it's the set system that killed traditional live comedy."

"As if the superhero movies of the assembly line killed the creative inspiration of traditional popcorn movies?" Renly's response made both Whishaw and John laugh.

Looking back at history from a contemporary perspective, Buster Keaton’s most peak and most glorious six years were from 1923 to 1928. At that time, all his works were independently produced by small film companies, but he handed over the distribution rights to MGM. That's all, it also retains his improvisation ability and on-site flexibility, and his artistic talent is freely released

He has created twelve works during this period, each of which is a masterpiece, and each of which has achieved success.

In 1928, because of a series of special events, Buster finally decided to officially sign with MGM and became an exclusive artist under MGM.

Although Buster's first work with MGM, "The Photographer" is still a classic, but he lost his control over the film and the technical team to support him, which made Buster begin to enter the studio in the fixed routine. As MGM's first action comedy star, the studio crew was completely blank. They didn't even know how to use props. Especially after entering a sound movie, the studio's stricter control over the production process also constrained the Buster's hands and feet.

Baster could not improvise directly without a script as before, and could only use the script to shoot according to the requirements of the photo studio; also because of the specifications of the studio - the use of time, the use of budget, etc., Bast was unable to carefully sculpt his own works, and even more so. The inability to design movements at will, and stunt doubles must be used to ensure the shooting progress, which also makes Baster's creative vitality and rhythm decline significantly.

Of course, Buster's alcoholism and the onslaught of the sound-movie era accelerated this process; the assembly line of the studio system, which ensured the quantity of films, and the bottom line of film quality, stifled the vitality of artistic creators.

Similar tragedies have occurred in every era, even now.

Renly and his party arrived at the movie theater, joking with each other, and then saw an old and dilapidated traditional movie theater, as if walking into a "Cinema Paradise", which is different from those large chain movie theaters that have formed an entertainment center. Such traditional cinemas are purer and simpler, carrying the beauty of childhood memories.

Among the three, the happiest and most excited is John - compared to Whishaw, who is 34 years old, and Renly, who is 25 years old, John, who is 49 years old this year, has been like this since he was a child. In the movie theater, I felt the charm of light and shadow of film, and those good memories rushed to my head, "The traditional movie theaters in Los Angeles are almost unable to support them. I sighed with them a while ago about the end of the era, but I never thought that Saw it here."

John walked briskly into the cinema. There was only one screening hall in the entire cinema, and only one movie could be shown at each time slot, which also meant that all the audiences waiting in the hall were ready to watch the same movie. All the neighbors in the small town knew each other, and the atmosphere of kindness and familiarity immediately came to my face.

"I remember the movie theaters have their own brochures, I'll go check them out." John jumped and moved sideways, unable to suppress his excitement, just like a crab walking, and then he remembered something, and raised his voice again at Renly. The voice said, "Can you ask about the continuous play tonight? Can we watch two in a row? I have a hunch that tonight will be very interesting."

Before Renly could answer, John nearly tripped himself and stumbled to his feet.

Renly and Whishaw both laughed, Renly patted Whishaw on the shoulder, "You go look at him, I'll buy a movie ticket. Do you need popcorn or Coke?"

"No. My dinner hasn't been digested." Whishaw didn't refuse, showing a helpless expression, and ran towards John quickly.

Renly turned around and walked towards the ticket counter, smiled politely at the conductor in the counter, stopped in front of the counter, raised his head and looked at the schedule above, "Oh...'Little one. "Steamboat Bill", this is a surprise, I thought it was only the classics that everyone knows, but I didn't expect to meet a special gift tonight, is this my lucky day? Please give me three tickets, thanks."

The teenager standing in the counter saw Renly's bright smile in front of him: no hat, no sunglasses, no makeup, no cover at all, so he stood in front of him calmly, the teenager couldn't help swallowing two mouthfuls of saliva. The throat still feels very dry.

"Um...uh...hey, Renly!" The boy summoned his courage and greeted him with a smile that was even uglier than crying. "Welcome to Snim. Did you make a special trip to watch the movie?"

"Yeah, who could miss the Buster-Keaton special?" Renly laughed lightly, clearly in a good mood.
