Best Actor

    "I have to drink something first..." In a dark room with a bright red color, a bright light shining from the wall, the whole room is slightly blue, and the upper body is naked. The man muttered to himself.

    In front of him was a neat row of milk bottles, no matter the size of the package, or the milk in it, it was exactly the same.

    The man stared at the milk bottles with red eyes and continued muttering to himself: "Wait a minute, if the milk has spoiled...the milk is already spoiled, I should not pick up the milk with my right hand... "

    Dazed, irritable, and fearful expressions alternately appeared on his face, his body trembled slightly, and he seemed to be engaged in a fierce battle deep in his heart. He wanted to cheer up, but he couldn't. Coupled with the clear, red scar on the upper body, this anxious and intense feeling of unease spread freely, and anyone who saw it couldn't help but want to keep his arm and rub it twice.

    "Cut!" Scorsese called out from the director's chair, "Take a five-minute break and do it again."

    The people around sighed with relief. The annoying arrangement in the studio, coupled with the actors' performances full of negative emotions but surprisingly contagious, made them all a little impatient. Scorsese's letting them rest was also considered. However, when people started to move and the buzzing sounded, Sean, the male protagonist, was still standing there motionless, and his shoulders were obviously heaving up and down.

    "Sean? Are you okay, Sean?" An assistant discovered this first, and asked aloud, causing many people to look over there.

    Sean, who was standing there topless, stretched out his hand and grabbed it in the air. He didn't know if he meant it was okay, or if he was telling them to leave him alone.

    Several people look at me and look at you, but they don't know what to do, even the assistant who should have sent the towel over there. This situation quickly alarmed Scorsese. He told the cameraman after calling stop. He didn't notice Sean's appearance at all. It wasn't until the assistant spoke up that he realized the problem.

    "What's the matter?" Scorsese raised his eyebrows when he saw Sean standing there. As an experienced director, he roughly guessed what happened.

    "Call him in the past, but be careful," he said to the assistant holding the towel.

      what happened. After the assistant approached, he carefully reached out and grabbed Sean's shoulder and shook it slightly. The latter then waved his hand and mumbled, "I'm fine."

    The assistant and the people who heard him breathed a sigh of relief, then put the towel on his shoulder: "Rest now, Sean, let's come back later."

    Sean waved his hands, raised his head a little, and looked irritable: "It's okay, I'm right here, let me be quiet for a while."

    "This..." The assistant looked around in embarrassment, "Let's go there, they will come over and rearrange the drama."

    "I said it! Let me be quiet here for a while!" Sean roared suddenly, his red eyes staring at each other fiercely, as if he was going to eat people.

    The startled assistant involuntarily took two steps back, not knowing what to do for a while, and all the people around looked over with astonished eyes.

    Fortunately, after a few seconds, Sean suddenly shook his head vigorously, covered his face and rubbed it hard, then apologized to him: "I'm sorry, I just...sorry..."

    "Are you all right, Sean?" Scorsese came over at this time.

    "I'm fine, Martin, I'm fine," he repeated, "I'm just a little stressed...so I lost my way..."

    "Really?" Scorsese looked at Sean very seriously, "I think you should take a break, just as today's shooting is almost done, and I still want the rest To make adjustments, you can go back first - don't you have something to deal with?"

    "No no no, Martin," Sean shook his head like a rattle, "I think it's in good shape, we've been filming for several days, Martin, despite a lot of problems, But there is also a lot of gains, why don't you complete this part of the scene in one go? You know, if I don't hurry up now, it will be difficult for me to grasp the essence of this role!"

    But, having said that, the fatigue between his brows is very obvious, but his expression is very stubborn.

     Scorsese looked at him with a complicated look, then reached out and patted his shoulder: "I know you work hard, Sean, you did give me a lot of surprises, just Because you performed so well, that's why I wanted to shoot this scene in advance. However, you must also understand that you can only create your character more perfectly if you save yourself. Your current situation is very bad, and I have no idea. I said this under cover, so I ordered to go back to rest!"

    I have to say, as an experienced and well-known director, Scorsese is very good at persuasion. He can see what kind of state Sean is in and what causes him In this way, I use "only rest can create a more perfect character" as the reason for persuasion, rather than "it's just a character, it's not worth doing this".

    To be honest, he actually had some regrets in his heart. Sean did give him a lot of surprises. I won’t go into the details of Playboy. The details of the patients with the disease are so wonderful that even he felt that Hughes should have been like that when he was sick. If Scorsese had some DiCaprio in the beginning, he could have felt the same way, but after seeing Sean's rich, but knowing enough expression, he found that his previous decision was very correct. .

    In this case, he made the decision to advance Hughes's most tormenting inner drama.

    The general content is that after the end of World War II, Pan American Airlines wanted to completely monopolize international air routes, so it made a big fuss about the transport aircraft that Hughes Airlines failed to deliver to the military, and wanted to attack Hughes in one fell swoop collapse.

    At this time, Hughes's cleanliness and obsessive-compulsive disorder have become more and more serious, especially when he has a problem with flying the plane, and he fell down and survived, so he didn't like it very much. appear in public.

    But the senator, who had something to do with Tripp, initiated an investigative committee and asked Hughes to be consulted in person, which was unacceptable to Hughes.

    Therefore, the huge pressure and insecurity made him lock himself in the company's cabin, no one was seen, stripped naked, and suffered from the fear and suffering from the heart.

    Such a one-man show does not have too many lines. The key to the performance is the actors' expressions and body language. Generally speaking, although it is a little troublesome, as long as experienced actors are competent, but if you want to perform well and show the essence of it, it will be difficult.

    In Scorsese's view, DiCaprio is not bad, but he has a problem that is not easy to correct, that is, he always likes to show character anxiety with frown. It's okay to use this method once or twice, but always, not only will it be criticized, but it will also affect the interpretation of the character.

    But Sean's birth surprised Scorsese, because of his performance in details, he left many first-class actors behind, and many details have The finishing touch.

    What Scorsese didn't know was that Sean liked to delve into details from the beginning, and always liked to set a lot of details for the characters that were not used. Minghella also warned him at the beginning, too indulge Details will only make the image of the character shattered, and there must be targeted design details.

    It is also because of Mingella's teaching that Sean slowly changed his acting style, and then in the continuous playing of different roles, he understood how to design the details to be just right.

    In addition to this, Sean also worked very hard. I didn’t say anything about the filming of the short film at his own expense. He had read the Hughes information from Scorsese many times. He could memorize a few passages, and imitated his voice according to the recordings left by Hughes. In the end, he could hardly hear his original accent.

    This dedication to work alone is enough to make people compliment, not to mention the natural integration from **** to obsessive-compulsive disorder, and the explosion of this one-man show now.

    De Niro was like this when he starred in "Raging Bull", so Scorsese began to love talents, even if he wanted to take advantage of Sean's anxiety At the critical point, he completed this scene completely, so as not to find such a state in the future, but considering the pressure he was under, he finally gave up.

    In the past ten years, although Scorsese has met many young people who are willing to work hard or have good talent, but there are very few young people who are talented and willing to give everything for the role .

    So he decisively stopped filming - it was almost the end of the day anyway - and tried to persuade him to rest as much as possible, if Sean used up his energy and talent for this role, it would be too much loss, Such an actor will definitely stand on the Oscar stage with brilliance, but Oscar may not necessarily like his movies, even if he once sent De Niro to the throne of best actor.

    When he rests, he may adjust his state and better interpret the feeling of being there. Scorsese thought so comfortably.

    If Sean could appreciate the painstaking effort of the other party, he might be very grateful, but at the moment he is still struggling in the role, still in anxiety, so he doesn't know anything. But instinctively, he still knew that Scorsese's words were correct, so he hesitated and slowly walked to his position, and when he finally sat down with the support of his assistant, his expression became calmer. After sitting down, it is impossible to return to the studio for a while and continue, so it is more or less the time to come out.

    However, this is not enough, so when Sanders, who is no longer his assistant, but came to the studio for some business, appeared in front of him, Sean's first sentence Yes: "Is there marijuana?"
