Best Actor

    "I just told my assistant to get on the phone with my favorite client, and you came..." A man in a light gray suit and a pink shirt walking down the street of Times Square , holding the phone while walking and talking.

    Although she was wearing sunglasses, her frivolous face was still very conspicuous, and she even whistled when she passed by a blonde: "Hey, big beauty."

    Of course, he still didn't forget to talk to the client over the phone: "This is great, we are looking for time to help you host the premiere party. But now there is a small problem, this With two other premieres and a fundraiser, all the venues are booked, if we change the date..."

    Before the words were finished, there was already scolding, but the man didn't care, obviously these scenes have been experienced a lot: "Hey, you have to be reasonable, don't you? Hello? Hello? , the signal is not very clear..."

    Then, he hung up the phone, not caring at all, it seems that this kind of trick is often played.

    "Cut!" The director stopped at this time, but it was not the reason for NG.

    "Very good, Sean, keep the current state, let's come back from another angle." Schumacher encouraged.

    Hearing this, Sean couldn't help but cheer up a little, and he was a little nervous, anyway, he had prepared for more than a month, and the script has been recited so well that if he can't open it well Head, that would be a bit of a failure. Fortunately, from the beginning to the present, the dozen or so shots have basically performed well, and there are very few NGs. Those that were shot repeatedly were the director's request.

    However, as the filming continued, the pressure on him would only get heavier and heavier. Schumacher did not shoot like a normal movie, but let the camera follow the development of the script. In general movies, when all the shots of a scene are completed, they will move to the next scene, but most of the scenes in the movie "Sniper Phone Booth" are in one place, and other scenes are basically Not much, so both the director and the producer chose to follow the script.

      , there will definitely be many viewers who are curious." Zach revealed such a message in only a few words.

      Although this place is not prosperous, there are traffic and people everywhere, and it is impossible to keep it secret, so reporters were haunted outside the set on the first day.

    This is also the reason why Frederick is happy. After a few months, Sean's name and his works finally appeared in the media again, although in the third and fourth editions, And the content is also somewhat vague, but finally there is news in front of the public. Some news is better than no news, and with the filming of "Sniper Phone Booth", there will always be media follow-up attention, so Sean, as the male protagonist, must appear in the newspapers many times.

    Thinking about it this way, it was more cost-effective to take over this movie at first.

      Even the progress of "My Big Greek Wedding", which has been following, has been thrown to Galen - doesn't he want to open a restaurant? Then take this opportunity to hone yourself.

    "Cut, you're pushing too hard, Sean."

    "No, give me more fear! Implicit and restrained fear!"

    "You should do this, then do this again, you are an actor, don't always let me show you!"

    Schumacher is a very capable director, and has worked with Nicolas Cage, George Clooney, Val Kilmer and other big names, and is very good at training actors. He can always find Sean's problems at the first time, but give him as much room to play as possible, just like the above sentence: You are an actor, and I am always asked to demonstrate to you.

    Although when he is in a bad mood, a simple scene needs to be shot back and forth more than ten times, but Sean doesn't care, he likes this feeling very much. This is exactly what he has been pursuing since starring in "Death Illusion", which can not only allow him to give full play, but at the same time have a director who is good at controlling him to hold him back and prevent him from randomly bumping into it.

    And the way the film was shot also gave him a lot of convenience, and he could gradually experience the feelings of the characters, from being cynical at the beginning, to being trapped in a phone booth by a perverted killer, to asking for help in every possible way To no avail, in the end, I had to cry in front of the eyes of the public, and my mind fluctuated greatly.

    For an actor, what kind of role is more suitable for practicing acting? Once Sean was completely immersed in the role, the whole person seemed to float up, as if it did not exist in the body. But the body is still moving, and the lines have not stopped, as if he is split, looking at himself from a higher level, quite a kind of Beth Brecht advocated, integrated into the character and then detached Get out and keep your distance to control it.

    Such a situation occurred only once in the week after filming started. The plot at that time was that after the sniper threatened the male lead, he called his little lover Pan again, worried that the male lead would be exposed. Immediately, he was a little anxious and flustered, but at the same time he was suppressed and could not fully express himself, so his tone softened even more, which further fueled the opponent's arrogance.

    In the three or four shots before this, Sean didn't find the feeling that he had been filming bumpily. Although the director didn't say anything, his face was a bit ugly after all. So after spending several minutes brewing, Sean, who went into battle again, unexpectedly achieved this inexplicable feeling, and the effect displayed also made Schumacher stretch his brows.

    However, when he asked the director for advice and wanted to consolidate this feeling, he was unexpectedly rejected.

    "I can't help you with this, Sean, you need to experience this yourself," Schumacher said, "I very much agree with what your teacher said, acting is easy to say It is easy to say that it is complicated and complicated. This is an empirical science. Everyone is different, so everyone has a different experience of the same thing. In many cases, being good at observation and summarization is more important than talent. Very good, Sean, frankly speaking, although I agree with you to play the male lead, I still have some doubts in my heart, your excellent performance dispelled my doubts, I hope you can continue."

    Well, it is true, being good at observation and summarizing is the way for actors to improve. The reason why actors from academy are on average higher than halfway actors is the most important The reason is that after systematic study, they know how to observe and summarize efficiently.

     Therefore, many people who are interested in joining the acting career, as well as actors with some minor achievements from the informal system, will go to the performance training class to receive a certain degree of training - of course, not all actors will do this Do, many people feel that it doesn't matter to go the idol route - as long as you master the methods, the pace of progress will naturally be much greater.

    Therefore, Sean, who quickly mastered it after accepting John Harrington's private direction, did not go to any acting training classes to join in the fun, but chose to play more challenging Sex role to hone himself, so he followed the invitation of "Death Illusion", and then took a fancy to the male protagonist of "Sniper Phone Booth".

    Actually, director Schumacher is quite good in private, maybe a **** of his age has more or less his own pride and restraint, just like Ian McKellen in "The Lord of the Rings" , Usually when we talk, if there is no explanation, I can't feel the difference between him and the heterosexual.

    So in addition to asking questions, Sean also chatted with him on a lot of topics, such as about his works.

    "In fact, "Batman and Robin" as a whole is still quite satisfactory, as a popcorn movie is fully qualified, there are big stars, there are ups and downs in the plot, dazzling technology and ... also It's a fierce fight. But the problem is that at that time, Batman's potential has been explored, and the audience is tired of seeing this superhero on the screen. Everything has become a routine, just like the original Superman.

      Not your failure, but the failure of the entire series. ' Sean said after saying that the Batman franchise was considered the worst.

    "But Batman Forever is really good, in every way, and I remember some of my friends who watched it five or six times, and others who were very obsessed with Nicole Key Where's Durman." He then laughed again.

    Schumacher directed two Batman movies for Warner in the 1990s, "Batman Forever" in 1995 and "Batman and Robin" in 1997. Production, the former invested 100 million, with Fang Kilmer, Nicole Kidman, Tommy Lee Jones and Jim Carrey; the latter invested 120 million, George Clooney, Uma Thurman, Arnold Schwarzenegger—Schwarzenegger also played the villain for the first time—but it ended up being the exact opposite.

    The former received unanimous acclaim and was even called by many the most polished installment in the Batman franchise, with critics giving it many accolades. The latter has become the worst reputation of the entire series, which not only greatly affected the box office, but even starring George Clooney has publicly admitted that taking on the role of Batman was a wrong decision.

    Two works with completely different evaluations are from the same director. It would be strange if Schumacher was not depressed.

    "Anyway, I won't take on superhero movies in the future." Schumacher said, although the shadow of failure has passed for three years, he still seems a little happy to hear Sean's comments. .
