The Greatest Showman

Remember in one second [End of the God Station] Mobile phone user input address: m.xinwanben.com

The girl didn't recognize the person in front of her at all. It was Renly Hall, who had been in the limelight recently. He walked with a curly pace, learning the demeanor of a street/prostitute/girl, showing off his sexiness/sensation and walking away. .

In fact, no one would notice the man sitting cross-legged at the abandoned cruel doorway. This is an ordinary homeless person. There are countless homeless people in the streets and alleys of the Bronx. If they go under the bridge or near the garbage dump, then there are hundreds of homeless people. There will be a bonfire party at night. It doesn't look any different.

Naturally, no one would associate this filthy, scruffy man with the man the news media scrambled to cover. However, even if the nearby residents knew that this was Renly, what was important to them was not the person "Renly-Hall", but the financial interests behind the familiar name. In their opinion, Renly should be a rich man.

However, at this moment, Renly is a complete bum.

He was wearing a tattered t-shirt and a burlap coat, with open black boots over his feet, revealing socks that could not be seen inside; he wore an open fisherman's hat on his head, and his sticky hair was The gaps came out; even the face was covered with all kinds of dust, and the chin was covered with a messy beard, and the facial features were almost indistinguishable; the burlap bag at hand was stuffed with all kinds of Waste, including lamps, shoes, clothes, and books, is like a treasure bag.

Dirty, messy, sloppy, embarrassed, vicissitudes, and downcast, such a homeless person has no flaws.

Ten days ago, Renly officially ended all recording work on the album, and then he met up with Tony Kaye for a brief meeting. The filming location for "Transcendence" has been negotiated. The crew signed a two-month filming agreement with a high school. However, they must wait for the high school students to finish their final exams before filming can begin. Therefore, the crew determined the starting time. After the final exam, the filming will start immediately, and there are still two full weeks before the meeting.

When he decided to take on this work, Renly had already decided on the direction of his performance: this is a graduation test of expressive acting skills, giving him a platform to truly express what he has learned so far. , especially the basic skills learned in the academy, and the things honed in the West End and Broadway.

In the past three months, Renly has read the script of "Transcendence" more than 40 times, and the pages of the script have been turned over. He has repeatedly, seriously and carefully pondered the script every role in. It's not just Henry, including every character with and without rivals, and then communicated with screenwriter Karl Lund many times, and learned about the background of each character's birth, as well as Carl's original intention and ideas for writing the script. .

For expressive acting, reading the script is the foundation of the entire performance and the top priority.

These repeated readings and understandings gave Renly a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the source of Tony and Carl's artistic ideas. He knew that expressive acting didn't need to be experienced or incorporated, but he decided to explore the character further, albeit in a different way.

Instead of trying to figure out Henry's upbringing and life background, Renly decided to use Henry's perspective to observe the group of children mentioned in "Transcendence", the group of children who were in deep despair, and the group of children who chose to give up them. Strictly speaking, this is not actually Henry's perspective, but the perspective of Tony and Carl, or the perspective of a bystander.

Because Renly is eager to understand, what is the real despair? What is the real walking dead? Their lives went on, but they stayed where they were.

This is a completely unfamiliar field for Renly, who has lived in two lives. In the last life, he first devoted himself to studying, and then was trapped in the hospital bed. The movie entrusted his dreams and longings; I, he has always been enriching himself, music, literature, art, performance, and even sports. But from the beginning to the end, he never gave up, and never really despaired.

The difference between the two films "Anti-Cancer Me" and "Transcendence" is that both Adam and Henry face the abyss of despair, Adam tries to resist but has to give his fate to the unknown, and Henry tries to resist but finally chooses give up. This "despair" is abstract, and Renly can interpret it with expressionist performances, but he hopes to make abstraction concrete and rich.

So Renly turned into a homeless man.

It's not that you come over to experience it during the day and go back to your apartment to enjoy yourself at night; it's to really live as a homeless person. from ten days ago.

Renly thought he was someone who could endure hardship. Not to mention that the whole body was injured during the filming of "Fast and Furious 5", the confrontation with Vin Diesel is not as light as it seems on the surface; just talking about the coffin torture before the "Buried Alive" filming, both mental and physical are overdrawn. Limit, but he still insisted on gritted teeth.

But only after the real experience did he realize that he was still too naive.

In two lifetimes, Renly had never really endured hardship. In the last life, Ding Yanan's wings were enough to shelter him from the wind and rain. He could not say that he was rich, but he did not suffer from lack of food and clothing. Not to mention in this life, the life of the poor nobles was still comparable to that of the middle class, and the living conditions were even better than those of the previous life. Even better.

But in the past ten days, Renly had really been living on the streets, and it was extremely difficult to even find a roof that sheltered from the wind and rain, learning the rules of the street by taking risks.

Now Renly is clearly

I remember the first day of the homeless experience life, that night, he had no experience, he didn't know where to go to sleep, and he didn't know where to warm up. After night fell, Renly really knew that the midsummer in New York could be so cold that he shivered.

In the end, he chose Central Park, which seemed like the right choice for homeless sleeping. He found a bench, slept in his clothes, closed his eyes, and tried to summon sleep, but it was no easy task.

Because I didn't take a bath, I was lying all over my body dirty. The sticky, wet, and cold feeling made every inch of my skin uncomfortable. Even on the first day, under the psychological effect, I still felt uncomfortable. Feeling itchy all over.

And the bench in Central Park is not a bed in a five-star hotel, not to mention the rigid wooden slats, and the ventilation is good on all sides. The point is that people will pass by all the time, making all kinds of strange noises, dangerous The signal lingered, and Renly was tossing and turning, unable to close his eyes.

The whole person is in a state of high mental tension, but the worse is still behind, he just squinted, and he was first driven out by the homeless because he occupied someone else's territory, and then was chased by the police/cops and ran away In the middle of the night, I finally found a vacant seat on the bench by the roadside. I was still in shock and waited for the sunrise.

Sitting and sitting, I started to doze off before I knew it, and then I was woken up by the freeze. Looking at the endless darkness around me, I regained my energy, but then my body started to get hot and cold again, and my whole body was shivering. , Occasionally I see passersby passing by, and I must be vigilant with all my attention. I can vaguely see the drunkards cruising around the street corners, and those shadows who are poking their heads seem to be looking for a good opportunity to kill.

Such a scene reminds people of the era of Jack the Ripper.

To make matters worse, after eating nothing for an afternoon, the stomach began to protest and grunt. I was still worried about taking a bath before, but now it seems that food and clothing are the top priority.

That night, he just sat on the bench, quietly waiting for the sunrise. When the sun came out, the dangerous atmosphere receded like a tide.

But compared to the Bronx, the previous embarrassment can only be regarded as a sprinkle of water. At this moment, Renly can sit on the corner of the street calmly and observe everything here. Otherwise, it is estimated that the girl will go directly to Renly and let him taste what it is like to be a shrew.

Not only that, he also became a qualified homeless.

After waking up every morning, he has to find a place to brush his teeth, the sprinkler on the lawn in Central Park, and the toilet in the subway station, which are all good options; and then go to the relief station to get food, just some cans, handmade sandwiches, or the supermarket The food is about to expire in the store, but even so, you must be careful, otherwise you may be kicked out of the team by unruly black people, or the food will be snatched by hungry homeless.

The night is always difficult. The homeless gathering place under the bridge is a good place. There will be a bonfire, and there will be a large number of "companions", so that you won't lose your life in the middle of sleep, but the disadvantages are also obvious. Here, whoever has the bigger fist is the king. It does not mean that one can survive by adhering to the principle of "wealth is not revealed in vain". Sometimes it is just the misplacement of the sight, which may lead to disputes. Just like the strong prey and survival of the fittest in nature, it is not easy to survive here.

Of course, some people are more cunning, avoiding the supervision of patrol officers, lying in subway stations or hidden places in Central Park, they can often sleep peacefully, and even some people sleep directly in the subway as long as they can avoid the staff and get off work The previous investigation is enough, not only to keep out the wind and rain, but also to be warmer.

The perfect place is McDonald's. However, it is a prime location, it can't be too early, if there are too many customers, the clerk has to rush people; As long as it can occupy a spot at McDonald's, then the night could not be better.

If that's all, then surviving on the streets doesn't seem to be that difficult. But in the Bronx, this is just a basic survival rule. After night falls, how to avoid the area where drug/drug dealers do business, how to avoid the area where gangs deal with "private affairs", and how to avoid the sensitive area where gangs meet, This is the most important.

Because, if you are not careful, you will not be able to see the sun tomorrow.
