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

Early in the morning, there was a large crowd in the high school where the "Transcendence" crew was located. For those big crews, this is less than one-tenth of the small scale; but for independent small crews, it looks mighty, like a vast ocean.

However, although the crowd was large, it was not noisy at all. To be more precise, the entire crew seemed a little lost and a little sad. Because today is the day when the "Transcendence" crew is finished, there is still the last scene left to shoot. After the filming is over, it will be announced that the filming of the entire movie is complete, and everyone is inevitably a little reluctant to part.

During the filming, everyone complained a lot, especially when they met Tony and Renly, a big madman and a little madman, the work process was really miserable, except for the scene of the bus, which was shot in record time. In addition to the seventy-one reshoots, there were many scenes that were reshot over and over again, and there were at least ten scenes that were reshot more than 30 times.

According to the crew, this "detached" film is enough to cut out a half "American past". For reference, the director's cut of "Once Upon a Time in America" ​​is two hundred and twenty-nine minutes, nearly four hours. No one knows how long Tony is going to cut a movie, and even the screenwriter Carl Lund himself complained, "I can be sure that this movie was made with the intention of driving the audience out of the cinema."

But when it really came to an end, everyone began to feel inseparable. The main reason is only one: Renly Hall.

To be honest, Renly is not a person who is well-rounded and well-rounded. He is unfamiliar with most of the crew, and has not even spoken to him; but Renly is a dedicated and devoted actor. It's like watching a play in a Broadway theater.

The difference is that when watching Broadway, the audience is just amazed and dumbfounded, while when watching Renly filming, the process, level and depth of the performance are shown in detail in front of everyone. On the one hand, it allows people to deeply feel the difference in performance power, and truly distinguish excellent actors from ordinary performances; the difference.

Tony is a movie nerd. In order to shoot the work "Transcendence" well, the selection of the entire crew also has strict requirements in terms of professional quality. You can see it by looking at the cast and crew. All of these people have artistic background and know good and bad. Although they have a high vision and a good temper, they all know what they are doing.

The shooting process is really hard. It took nearly seven weeks to shoot an independent film, which is not inferior to those commercial blockbusters; but it is really enjoyable, so that people can truly feel the suffering and happiness of artistic creation.

It was rumored in the "Me Against Cancer" that Renly was so devoted to filming that his health had a problem, and he regretted missing the Oscars, and everyone would still believe it. Now that I have experienced it myself, I understand what is going on. Along with this, many people became interested in the "anti-cancer me".

It is about to be finished now, and the regret and loss in my heart will inevitably start to appear, and my mouth is full of bitterness but I don't know how to describe it.

Jeremy Marks had a smile on his face, and the hard torment was finally coming to an end. Feeling the low pressure of the crew, he couldn't help comforting, "It's a good thing to end. If you want to self-abuse, there will be cooperation next time. Opportunity." But even Jeremy's words of comfort were weak, his smile seemed heavy and weak, and the feeling of emptiness in his heart could not be described in words.

Was it the same in student days? When I was in school, I always missed the vacation, but after the real vacation, I missed the time of class. Even if he knew it was ridiculous, he still couldn't control it.

Thinking about it now, Jeremy's smirk at Renly's cold eyebrows at the beginning, the world is impermanent, and life is full of surprises.

"Good morning!"

"Good morning, Sir!"

There was a burst of greetings in his ears, and without looking back, Jeremy knew that it was Renly who had arrived on the set.

Because Renly played a teacher in the movie, the students called them "sir". The actors who played the students this time were all ordinary people with no acting experience, all of them were high school students. Gradually, They were also used to this title, and they shouted it in and out of the play. Over time, even the crew began to call Renly that.

Not even director Tony was treated that way.

Turning around, Jeremy saw Renly with a relaxed smile on his face. His gentle and bookish air made people feel particularly comfortable. He took the initiative to step forward and greeted, "Good morning. Are you ready? The crew It's all in place, now it's time for the actors to play."

Ren Li smiled and nodded, "No problem, we can start directly." After speaking, Ren Li walked straight towards the classroom.

In the final scene of the whole movie, Tony chooses one of Henry's lessons.

Before that, Henry had determined that he would end his substitute teaching career at this school and go to another school. The students were reluctant to part with it. They could all feel that among so many teachers, Henry was the only one. A teacher who really cared about them, but now, that teacher is leaving too. There is still no hope in life.

And this class was the last class after Meredith committed suicide and before the end of the semester. The atmosphere in the whole class was very depressed. Henry looked at Meri.

Diss had a heavy heart in the empty space. Here, he read a poem by Edgar Allan Poe, which was the one that Renly and Tony had chosen when they auditioned for "The Fall of Usher".

The film will end in this poem. But this scene is undoubtedly very difficult. All the emotions are suppressed under the water and hidden in the poetry. It requires the actors to have a profound interpretation of the lines, emotions, director's intentions, and students. However, Tony has absolute trust in Renly, so he chose this difficult scene as the finalization, and the other scenes have been filmed in advance.

After entering the classroom, Renly saw that the students and actors were already sitting in their seats, ready to shoot one by one, and he waved, "Good morning."

"Good morning, sir," said the students in a sparse, ragged voice.

This made Renly chuckle, "Why are you so listless? Shouldn't you be happy? Such a long ordeal is finally over, we don't have to continue to suffer any more, and then it's a holiday... Oh, I I forgot, school starts in a week, right? Are you regretting it because the summer vacation is coming to an end?"

The students looked at each other, but no one spoke. After waiting for a while, a black student raised his hand, and after getting Renly's approval, he said, "Sir, I think it's going to be parting, I'm very sorry. You say, do we have a chance to meet in the future? ?"

"Yeah, sir. Can we leave the Bronx, you say? I'd like to continue my studies, but I don't know if I'll be able to continue after school starts this year."

"Sir, I want to be an actor, do you think it's possible?"

"Sir, is reading really useful?"

...

The chattering words came and went one after another, which made Ren Li slightly stunned. For him, this is a performance work, but it is also a life experience; for these students, it is a dream, a beautiful and happy dream, after today, they will wake up and return to reality In life.

Out of the corner of his eye, Renly saw Sammy and Betty. Their scenes had all been filmed, but they still came to the crew today. The two stood at the back door of the classroom and looked at Renly in confusion.

At this moment, Renly really felt the weight on his shoulders, just like Tony filming the movie "Transcendence". If they just reach out to help poor individuals, their personal strength is limited after all. They need the attention of the society and the support of more authoritative people. Only by truly changing the concept of education and the situation of the community can we help to more people.

Renly didn't really do anything but insist on being a dedicated actor. How could he be able to win the trust of these children; how could he be able to guide them in the direction of life? It was only today that Renly understood for the first time what the social responsibility of a public figure was.

Renly put down his satchel, walked to the front of the podium, considered his thoughts, and said, "Trust me, reading is the only way to change your life. You can go far away, you can now Just find a job, you can choose to give up or compromise.”

"There are no answers in life, everyone will go their own way. Be an actor, why not? Be a photographer or an artist, of course; be a blue-collar worker, or a homeless person, there is nothing to be ashamed of. "Renly stood in front of the podium and deeply felt the responsibility of teachers and parents. For these confused children, teachers and parents are their only support. "Everyone has their own choice. Can reading make money? Can reading make you full? The answer is no, but reading allows you to have these choices. The choice is not necessarily the right one, but at least you have the opportunity to choose.”

"Will we ever meet again in the future? Maybe, maybe not. But at least we should try." Renly said with a smile, but his heart was heavy.

All the children applauded and looked at Renly with hopeful eyes, which made Renly a little embarrassed. He suppressed his emotions, showed a big smile, raised his right hand and pressed it down, "I'm not a teacher, I'm just an actor. In the eyes of many people, an actor is not a good role model."

This joke successfully made everyone laugh. Betty, who was standing at the back of the classroom, raised her hand to wipe the tears from her cheeks and burst into laughter.
