Resurrection 395 performance intention.

Hugo's first reaction when he saw the "Shawshank's Redemption" script was: 1994 is coming, and the second reaction immediately after the enthusiasm is: Why does this script find himself?

There are two main characters in the story "Shawshank's Redemption", one black and one white. The actor Andy is played by Tim Robbins (.), while the supporting actor Red is played by the old man. Play bone Morgan Freeman (maan) provokes the heavy burden. Of course, because of the importance of **** in the story of the role of Reid, many people call it a double-protagonist movie.

Tim can actually be regarded as a Tom Hanks type of actor. He looks loyal and sincere, and his acting skills are diligent and solid. There is no scandal or negative news in his'private' life. The relationship with Susan Sarandon (susmn) is even more Hollywood. A legendary story. This type of actor is like Superman to the United States. Americans need such a righteous and upright actor to provoke the leader, but unfortunately, Tim meets Tom Hanks, and Hanks becomes a whole The most famous American hero, "Tom", has become the spokesperson of Hollywood for 20 years, but Tim's career as an actor has been a little worse.

The role of Andy in "Shawshank's Redemption" also fits Tim's image very well, being honest, gentle, forbearing, elegant, and restrained, so Tim does fit the image very well. Recall that Hugo himself, because "Schindler's List" is still in post-production, and has not met with the public, the current screen image of Hugo is actually the same, and it has a natural fit with Andy.

Hugo’s temperament is sunny and handsome, so it’s no wonder that Frank De Labont will take the initiative to appoint Hugo, hoping that he will play this role.

In fact, in the preparation process of "Shawshank's Redemption", although Columbia Pictures paid attention to this plan, it did not pay too much attention to it. Although the rate of adaptation of Stephen King's works is very high, except for "The Shining", all Did not achieve great success, and the success of "The Shining" was attributed to the great Stanley Kubrick. Obviously, Frank De Labont was not Stanley.

Therefore, Columbia Pictures only gave a budget of 25 million U.S. dollars. The prerequisite is that the role of Reid is the first choice for Morgan. Freeman has a large part of the budget for Morgan's salary. Then, Frank was struggling with the choice of actor. This is the fundamental reason why Tim was able to stand out in the end. At present, Tim can only be regarded as a second-line to first-line actor in Hollywood. He starred in the "super player" last year. Won a series of actor nominations, proving his strength.

However, compared to Tim, Hugo’s advantage is that he is younger and his acting skills are as “great”, but the box office is more appealing, but the salary has only just increased, and it will not be too high. Within control. It makes sense for Frank to be the first to fancy Hugo.

The thoughts in his mind reacted at once, and Hugo then began to think: Do you want to act in this script?

The best work in movie history, of course, this is Hugo’s first thought, just like the idea that popped up in his mind when he heard "Schindler's List". This is a kind of movie "fan". Psychology, let yourself become a part of these classic masterpieces, it is a kind of surging emotions. Many industry practitioners entered the film because of this emotion. Later, the famous ghost director Quentin Tarantino (quemththn0) This is the case, relying on his crazy love of movies, he grew from a video rental shop clerk to a world-renowned top director, relying on this fanaticism for paying homage to classics.

But soon, Hugo calmed down. After experiencing "Schindler's List", after experiencing the previous "sugar-coated traps" and "Desperate End", Hugo knew very well that in the movie In the long history, there are countless excellent works, and he cannot appear in every classic masterpiece. In Hollywood, the actor's performance depends on fate. You cannot lose yourself because "Shawshank's Redemption" is an excellent work. In order to be measured, he should still be measured from an objective perspective, otherwise, he will never be able to mature in this position as an actor.

First of all, Hugo knew that he was still not ready to appear in the work again. The exhaustion after "Schindler's List" was still not relieved, and his whole thoughts were still immersed in A'mon' Goss. In this role, otherwise he would not open it after so long after receiving the script, because deep in his heart he is still not ready to star in a new work, if he barely starred in "Shawshank's Redemption" , Maybe he is not only incapable of playing this role, but he will ruin this classic masterpiece.

Furthermore, actors should not only focus on the script and the work themselves, but also focus on the role of "color", whether they are competent for this role, and whether this role "color" can bring new ideas. The challenge, the resonance between himself and the role of the character, this is the core factor in the actor's choice of script.

So, what about the role of Andy?

In fact, in the story of "Shawshank’s Redemption", what really casts the classics is Andy’s desire for freedom and the indelible hope, but in Andy’s role itself, whether it is the depth of the role, The thickness, or the space left by the director to play the role, is very limited. Of course, it’s not that Andy’s role doesn’t test acting. In fact, this role’s role is very difficult.

Andy’s introverted, refined, and upright look is out of place in the entire prison. From the moment he enters the prison, his psychological changes are very subtle, from a banker to a murderer, and from heaven to hell. , The whole prison greeted him with a dark hell. During this process, Andy's heart has been suffering; then, Andy sought the opportunity and began to realize his self-worth in the prison gradually, playing the last of his dark life. A little light; but when Andy learned that it was not himself who killed his wife and her lover, but someone else, Andy's inner struggle and pain were the greatest torment.

Andy’s psychological changes are very delicate. He didn’t perform it publicly. Most of the time, it was just subtle changes in the eyes, corners of the mouth, hand movements, and walking posture. This deep entanglement and contradiction in his heart made the actors in When trying to make Andy's role three-dimensional, it was full of countless difficulties and challenges, and the performance space left by director Frank to the actors was very limited, which increased the difficulty several times.

Relatively speaking, Rhett’s character "color" is equally delicate, but the inner changes of the character "color" are relatively less complicated. Frank leaves more performance space for the actors, so behind the control of the rise and fall , Which makes it easier to see the actor's performance skills in the role of Rhett.

This is also the case in history. Morgan played Rhett and won the Oscar nomination for best actor-best actor instead of best supporting actor, it can be said to be the pinnacle of robbery; while Tim played Andy, but Did not get the Oscar nomination.

In fact, Tim’s performance is very glamorous. He has a very accurate grasp of Andy’s changes in heart. At the same time, he shows his delicate and restrained acting skills, which is the finishing touch to the movie. More importantly, In the match with Morgan, Tim did not fall behind, and this made Shawshank’s salvation.

Therefore, Tim did not win the Oscar nomination, and is also known as a big unsuccessful Oscar case. This unsettled case was not until 2004, ten years later, when Tim was compensated with the film "Mystic River (. , The Golden Man who won the Oscar for best supporting actor in one breath.

For Hugo, the role of Andy is still challenging. He is somewhat similar to the role of “scenting the fragrance and knowing the female”, but the inner changes are more intense and complicated, and the gap is greater. It is even more vivid, and Andy is the leading actor in the movie, so the expression space is naturally broader. However, compared to "Yihai Xiongfeng" or "Schindler's List", Andy's "color" is still lacking in explosive power, and not long ago Hugo starred in "Sleepless in Seattle". Although Andy's character'color' is darker and more complicated, his strength is still lacking.

However, Hugo believes that if you give Andy more space for the character, it may not be too long. It may only be the details of a few shots, but it will take only a minute or two, but it will be able to make peace. Dee’s character “color” is more vividly and concretely outlined, leaving more performance space for the actors, and at the same time making Andy more three-dimensional, and most importantly, making the whole story smoother.

Therefore, Hugo was a little moved by Andy's role, but he was not too positive. Hugo felt that he should sit down with the director Frank to have a face-to-face ‘talk’, and the two sides would ‘exchange’ their opinions before making a decision.

After thinking about it, Hugo made a decision. This also made Hugo a sigh of relief. He did grow a lot in a year. If it was six months ago, that is, before the Golden Globe event, Hugo would definitely I can’t wait to take over this script. After all, this is an invitation from Frank to Hugo. A classic work like "The Shawshank’s Redemption" is naturally not to be missed; but now, he can look at it more maturely and calmly. These opportunities ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ also signify that he is making continuous progress on the road to becoming a professional actor.

Of course, if it can appear as the leading actor in "Shawshank's Redemption", this is bound to be another huge improvement for Hugo, and Hugo also has a faint expectation for this.

Therefore, Hugo immediately called Joseph and expressed his wishes.

"You mean you want to have an interview with Frank." Joseph confirmed again.

"Yes, I think it's better to have a face-to-face'communication'." Hugo emphasized, "I will go to the east coast next. There is no problem with the big cities along the way. Please check with him and see. Chicago or New York, or somewhere else, let's meet directly and talk about it in detail."

"Okay, I will confirm the time and place with them, and wait for my news." Joseph did not say much, and simply agreed.
