Superstar

Chapter 976: Throw away the crutches

\"&   Hugo is thinking about Jessie. Although this is a character he created, what comes to mind at this time is not himself, but a completely different figure.

Jesse should be 27 years old this year. Like him, he was born in 1967. However, not long after graduating from university, he was temporarily out of work, or he just resigned and fired his boss not long ago. He is full of life. confused. He decided to travel to Europe with his girlfriend for a while, which is one of them. Maybe it's not a gap year, it's just a few months, it's just a journey, at least he needs a little time.

But after Jesse and his girlfriend came to Madrid, they found out that his girlfriend seemed to be reluctant to follow him at all. Because she had a "new friend", Jessie bought a ticket back from Vienna. , But because there was still a period of time before takeoff, he bought another European train pass and started his journey in Europe. There was no purpose, no direction, and no destination. He wandered around the European continent at will. I don’t know. How long did it take, two weeks or three weeks, his ticket to return to China will expire tomorrow, which makes him have to leave and get on the train bound for Vienna: tomorrow his plane home will take off in Vienna .

Jessie has an imperfect but stable family. The parents are married because of this. They can't be said to be love or happiness. They just make do with their lives. Jessie also has an older sister. He accidentally learned that he was actually unpopular because his father didn't want the child, but at the insistence of his mother, he was born.

This cognition changed his outlook on life, values, and world outlook. He began to learn to see the world as an outsider, because he was an uninvited guest who came to this world. He was like a time traveler parading in the world, watching Others live a boring or exciting or sad life, trying to find the meaning and purpose of their continued life.

This kind of Jesse is a little confused, just like most young people-or most normal people, there is no one, just acting. Birth, school, work, marriage, childbirth... everything is done step by step, and has no special meaning, but the whole society works like this, and they live like this. They are rushing for their livelihoods every day, but apart from earning money and living, they can't find any meaning to stimulate the heart.

It's just that Jesse is different from everyone else, he wants to find a meaning, he wants to find the meaning of his appearance in this world. Maybe this is too philosophical, but he wants to inquire about it, even if he doesn't know how to find it, and how to find it.

Therefore, Jesse is somewhat casual and unruly. He is positive and optimistic. He always has a casual smile on his face, with a little bit of ruffianity, but full of the innocence of childhood. You can always see in those clear eyes. A clean smile like a child. But if you look carefully, you can see the traces of years between the contemplative eyebrows, which are different from the maturity and wisdom of age.

He is a boy and a man. This mixed temperament was revealed from the talk, and it attracted Selena, and this night was born.

Is this Jesse ordinary? He is very ordinary. In the hippie era, you can see countless such young people. Perhaps Jesse’s thoughts also carry the hippie style. He likes rock, but he is not necessarily crazy about it. He likes literature, but not just Just look at serious novels.

But this kind of Jesse is extraordinary. He can look at his birth and his family optimistically. He can uninhibitedly abandon all wanderings in Europe and take things as hell. He can think philosophically about many life issues, but he can look at it innocently. In this world, his inner courage to break the shackles of reality is not sharp and unassuming, but there is a kind of stubbornness hidden in the depths.

It can be said that Jesse is a part of Hugo, but a completely different individual.

Jesse’s family is more like a collection of two families before and after Hugo’s journey. There are not so many disturbances, but it is not so simple. Jesse’s parents finally chose to divorce and break up peacefully, which made both children loose. Take a breath, but now they will still keep in touch with each other. Family is special to Jesse. The good memories still occupy most of it, but it makes him question love.

Jesse is casual and free. He doesn't. Maybe he doesn't know what he wants, but he knows exactly what he wants. Hugo is different. Rock and roll has always been his dream. He is like a stupid Icarus, running tirelessly towards the sun, even if he can't get close to the sun for a lifetime, or when he gets close to the sun, he will become ashes. He still ran all the way without giving up. Therefore, Hugo is confused, but he will not lose his way.

Jesse is interested in philosophy and literature, but Hugo is more interested in psychology. Jesse would recklessly strike up a conversation with a strange woman. After only talking for ten minutes, he would boldly invite the other person to get off the car in Vienna, but this is something Hugo would not do.

So, how should such a character be presented?

Perhaps, he should wear a casual T-shirt with jeans. It is very likely that the T-shirt is still a bit worn, and then he is holding a plaid shirt or work jacket in his hand, and he is carrying a suitcase with a few clothes in it. Just walk around in this way; maybe, he has an untrimmed beard, looks a little sloppy, and his messy hair is not taken care of seriously; maybe, when he speaks, his eyes are shining with sincere light, and every word is It comes from the heart; perhaps, when he listens to others, he always looks directly at each other, and his devotion and concentration can be clearly seen in those clear eyes; perhaps, he will inadvertently show confusion or fragility , The emptiness and emptiness of the eyes contained uncertainty about the future...

In fact, a character like Jesse should be more of a temperament that radiates from the inside out. His views, his thoughts, and his soul are his most attractive part, although he has a handsome face, which makes Selena was willing to talk to him the first time, but it was the soul under the skin that he really attracted Selena.

Therefore, in the process of performance, Hugo obviously should not pay too much attention to details, nor should he think too much about acting. Instead, he should fully understand the light of thought reflected in the lines, and express this point of view in his way, and the role will be natural. Shaped up.

This is also the most difficult part of playing such an ordinary role. Maybe others can't see that you are working hard, but in fact, you have already devoted yourself to the role.

Hugo clearly remembered that whether it was Judy Qi's eyes in "Filo Mena", even if he didn't say a word, but just looked at the camera quietly, those thousands of words could be felt between his brows. Obtained; or Bruce Dunn's stubborn back in "Nebraska", a lonely and desolate figure who is always unwilling to give up, coupled with the vague words, the image of the father is outlined in this way.

Looking at such a scene, many viewers will wonder: Are you acting? But in fact, the actor has already presented the "drama". That kind of delicate sculpture almost consumes all the actor's energy, because he must be completely integrated with the character.

Hugo decided to give it a go, throw away his crutches, and interpret this ordinary but extraordinary Jesse in his own way.

"I remember childhood... it was like a magical time," Jesse said seriously, sitting in a chair, as if accompanied by words, he had returned to his childhood, his eyes full of profound, "Really." Jesse whispered to strengthen his certainty, then he moved his gaze away from Selena and looked into the distance outside the window. Looking at the receding scenery, he slowly said, "Remember my mother first Once I told me about death. My Zeng Zhuan passed away. Our family went to a funeral in Florida when I was only three years old - or three and a half years old..."

The words Jesse recalled were not very coherent. He was sketching out the situation bit by bit along with his own memories, "Anyway, when I was playing in the backyard, then my sister taught me how to take the hose for watering the flowers..." Jesse slowed down, looked at Selena seriously, and then gestured with her hands, as if there really was a water pipe in her hand, "Just pinch like this..."

Jesse paused, as if waiting for the water pipe to spray out, then he raised his eyebrows slightly and said excitedly to Selena, "The sprayed water mist will form a rainbow in the sun," he still used The right hand painted the appearance of a rainbow, and the clean smile at the corner of his mouth was outlined in this way, and then he twisted his body in excitement, shaking his hands, as if he was a three-year-old child at this time, making a rainbow with a hose. "So I did this." He kept shaking his hands, but suddenly stopped, his smile kept a touch of sunshine on his mouth~www.readwn.com~At this time, through the mist...I, look. Arrived the great grandmother. "

Having said that, Jessie looked at Selena again, but there was no sadness on his face, but a slight smile, just like a child with pure joy and joy, "She just stood there, Smile at me," and then smiles poured from the bottom of my heart into my eyes, blooming proudly like spring flowers. This childlike smile is so simple and clean, as if the sky was lit up in an instant, allowing all views to bloom. The person smiled involuntarily, "I was stunned for a long time and looked at her. Finally, I let go of the nozzle, you know?"

Jessie's hands were also released along with the sound, and the smile on his face faded, "Then threw down the pipe, and she just disappeared like this..." Then, he spoke faster again, really The exciting part is over, and the next part is just irrelevant. "So I ran back to the house and told my parents that they let me sit down, and then scolded me. You will never see it again after the person is dead. They, that's just my illusion..." He still had that impatient, speechless expression on his face, clearly expressing his true feelings for these words.

After a quick talk, his tone became more serious and his smile showed again, "But I know what I saw and I am happy for it. I will never see a similar situation again in the future, but I don't know. That made me understand a little bit that things in the world are so unexplainable, including death.".
