Chapter 1126

Frankly speaking, lanli has not thought about the next plan for the time being.

The shooting process of "gravity" is extremely hard, consuming almost all the mind and soul. The real body and mind are tired, and every day is tense and hard. Before the shooting, lanli has no chance or time to think about the future plan, and even Andy is not in a hurry to make arrangements.

Perhaps, he should have a good rest for a period of time and really let himself relax; Perhaps, he should start looking for the next suitable script project to continue the performance state and harvest of gravity; Perhaps, he should actively participate in the public relations of the award season to further establish his reputation and contacts in the industry.

Maybe he should call Paul and go surfing in Hawaii to enjoy the heat and freshness in the cold winter; Maybe he should stay in New York, stay at home, read some books, go to mount Sinai Hospital, have a cup of coffee with his friends and have a good time.

But lanli didn't really think about it.

Today, "gravity" just finished, the Cohen brothers have appeared in the photography base, and given the most perfect and most appropriate choice.

"Drunken ballad" is originally the work that Lan Li is most eager to play in. On the basis of the integration of personal experience and role story, it will go a step further than "gravity". This is undoubtedly the best choice to further polish his acting skills.

In particular, after stripping off the technical shooting problems of the latter and the shackles of light box and computer special effects, all the weight of the plot falls on the actors, and the challenge of performance will return to the traditional track; Of course, it's also the "when shall we go back to New York" of Langley's career Lanli's eyes fell on Ethan and asked with a smile, "tomorrow or the day after tomorrow? If it is today, it should be a little too hasty. "

Joel and Ethan didn't react and exchanged their eyes. Then, they both looked at lanli again. The light in the bottom of their eyes was unbelievable. Joel asked first, "lanli, do you mean..."

Lan Li nodded and confirmed, "thank you for the invitation. It's my honor to join the cast of 'drunken folk songs'. Just now, you said the name of the hero is Levine Davis? "

Joel opened his mouth wide, nodded and rubbed his hands. He was smiling and excited, but he couldn't make a sound. He just couldn't restrain his excitement.

Ethan also clenched his fist heavily. "Welcome, warm welcome. Well... I mean, welcome to the cast. " As a producer, Ethan calmed down quickly. "First of all, our requirement is that all the singing in the film must be performed live, and studio recording is not allowed. Of course, we will record a studio album later."

Sure enough, it's the Cohen brothers. They live in the system, but they still have their own personality. Lanli just nodded his head and agreed to cooperate. There was no sign in black and white. He couldn't wait to raise many demands. He didn't worry about too many demands, which scared the actors away.

Besides, it was Ethan, not Joel, who spoke at this time.

However, it is obvious that Langley and the Cohen brothers are the same kind of people. They agreed to the performance invitation one second before and entered a professional state the next.

"Is there a mother belt now?" After the recording of Don Quixote, Langley also had a preliminary understanding of the music industry, not completely blind. Although he loved the original soundtrack of the film and listened to it many times in his last life, Langley did not forget that he knew nothing about the film songs in this life.

"Yes, we can provide it at any time, and your comments are welcome. We all know that you are an excellent folk singer. To be honest, we even thought about leaving the whole album to you for production, but obviously... Your schedule is too hard to make an appointment. We can only give up this infatuation. " With that, Ethan couldn't help laughing, feeling very happy.

This time, the Cohen brothers came to Surrey with the idea of putting all their eggs in one basket.

Because of Joel's recalcitrance, he has offended many agents and actors in order to choose the role, and things have become difficult. Among them, there are also many actors from the innovative artists agency, and the progress of the project is slowing down with many difficulties; What's more, lanli has just finished shooting a work, and now he must be physically and mentally exhausted. They are not sure whether lanli is willing to join another crew seamlessly.

This trip is full of variables.

Now, Lan Li nodded his head and agreed to join the club, which is a huge surprise! Rao is Ethan mature steady, at this time also unavoidably overjoyed.

"Second, we need to make some changes in the shape. Ha, it's incredible. I think no one has ever been critical of your appearance. " Ethan joked easily, too.

Blue Li slightly picked pick eyebrow tail, said with a smile, "believe me, this aspect of pickiness is far more than imagined." After all, Langley was too young.

Ethan immediately responded, dumbfounded, nodded and shrugged, "sorry, but now we have to join the ranks, we need to challenge some more decadent style, more embarrassed style." After Ethan finished, he chuckled, "charm is a very important thing, but Levine Davis needs more decadent sexy."

It's about age, but it's not just about age, it's more about the role of Levine.

So far, Lan Li has played many roles, such as young college students in crazy love, blue collar driver in buried alive, tough man in tomorrow's edge, gloomy teacher in detached, but he never showed his sexy side, and he is still the kind of decadent and vicissitudes of sexuality.

It's really a challenge.

Levine Davis is a jerk. For many people, he is a self-centered, paranoid and arrogant jerk; But this asshole must have a unique charm, a charm that people can't hate.

Different from the change and growth of the characters in "tomorrow's edge", Levine is always a jerk from "drunken folk" to the end. People's attitude towards Levine is very mixed, mixed with pity, sympathy, helplessness, but also mixed with admiration, admiration and pity, not only hate, not just like, but also a complex emotion that can not be rejected.

So, how to present an asshole that can't be disgusted by the audience is very important for the actor.

This also means that Langley has to challenge a role that he has never tried in his career. Moreover, it has nothing to do with acting skills, but more to grasp the temperament of a role. That's exactly why Langley loved Levine Davis played by Oscar Issac. Now, it's Langley's turn to meet such a challenge.

"Decadent sexy?" Blue Li's eyebrows gently raised, and then pursed the corners of his mouth. "You mean, like Ryan Gosling?"

Roy and Nathan, who are standing next to him, supplement the picture that Langley said. In "blue Valentine's Day", Ryan really shows decadent sexuality, which seems to be similar. But after bringing his own story, he can't help shaking his head. Joel interjects, "no, what we need is Langley hall style feeling."

Lan Li didn't answer, but nodded meaningfully, as if he was trying to figure it out in his mind.

Ethan continued, "and are you allergic to cats?"

In the story of "drunken folk", there is a cat, which has profound meaning. It is called Ulysses.

Ulysses has two sources of classical allusions. One is the ancient Greek mythology, which is always wandering and struggling, and has become a hero, but experienced many vicissitudes; One is the masterpiece of Irish writer James Joyce, which is regarded as one of the greatest novels in the 20th century. It shows the epic of the two nations in one day, but it is also a long journey of self-identity.

In a sense, this cat named Ulysses is actually a projection of Levine's life, symbolizing a cycle of life. Through this cat, the images of Levine and Ulysses reflect each other, which interprets the true meaning of the era, the character and the story in Cohen brothers' works——

After all, they are just looking for themselves.

He gave up some insistence, gave up some life, gave up some belief, and compromised to life step by step. At the last moment, after giving up his dream and freedom, he gave up himself, became a microcosm of the mediocrity of society, and completely lost his sense of existence.

So, in the movie, this cat named Ulysses is actually a story. It depends on whether the audience can taste the meaning.
