When the feet enter the door, the clock on the wall has already passed midnight, and the moonlight is pouring down through the corner glass window, which makes the whole space cool like silver frost; But the desk lamp in the corner lights up, and the lemon yellow halo supports a small corner. In the cold and open space, it breeds some warmth, weak but tough, and stubbornly dispels the silver brilliance around.

It's Rooney who's reading.

Rooney, who finished her backpacking in Europe, also returned to New York, but she still lives in her apartment and only occasionally comes here.

Lan Li didn't make a sound to break the silence in the room. Instead, he went to the French window and sat cross legged in front of the window. He let his muscles relax slowly. He watched the lights in front of him quietly. They reflected with the lights on the street and the stars on the sky. There was peace in the noise.

"Do you need a glass of hot milk?" Noticing Langley's tiredness, Rooney put her books aside and went to the kitchen.

"Well." Blue Li answered in a low voice.

In the distance, Rooney's voice came from the kitchen, "is the recording not going well?"

"... the recording work is quite smooth, with some bumps and disputes, but on the whole, it is still on track. To be honest, I enjoy it a little bit. " The corner of lanli's mouth relaxed, "there is no need to think, just immersed in it, just like drifting, let the melody lead the brain."

"So that's why you've always been less enthusiastic about the studio and the stage." Rooney raised her voice to reply that the kitchen is a little far away, and the indoor space is a little empty, which makes Rooney and lanli cry across the hill, and even can hear faint echoes. But those distances are not strange. On the contrary, the two people's dialogue and communication can fill up the whole space, and make the irritability calm down.

Occasionally, you can hear the sound of opening the refrigerator, closing the refrigerator, opening the microwave oven and closing the microwave oven.

"Well, are you a little used to it now? Show more of yourself? " Rooney then asked——

Lan Li didn't like to open himself too much on the stage, which was contrary to the hereditary noble education, and also contrary to Lan Li's protection of personal privacy.

"Well. A little bit. " But I'm not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing. You know, in my mother's words, I am being assimilated by Hollywood; But in Matthew's words, I'm becoming real. I'm not sure. It's too strange. "

"I think it's a good thing." Rooney replied that even without looking back, she could feel the rising radian of her mouth. "It's not because of showing yourself, but because it triggered your thinking, which means that you are growing and changing, and that life can still move you. That's the truth, not to say that we're living like walking dead, without expectation or fear. That's terrible. "

Lanli's eyebrows gently raised, which is another kind of interpretation - deep in his heart, he can also understand, but in the long period of tiredness, his mind began to become slack and lazy, at the same time, it also became narrow, and then those things that he could understand were hidden.

At this time, hearing the explanation from Rooney, I was in a little mood.

"David finch came to the studio today." Lan Li said on his own initiative.

"I know David called me after you finished talking." LUNI came over with two cups of milk on a tray, and then sat down cross legged beside lanli. Her eyes were shining brightly. She took up a cup of milk herself, warmed her palm, and then looked straight ahead to enjoy the best night scene in the world. Her words were still a little relaxed and cheerful, "don't you wonder what he said?"

"No, I'm not curious. I can guess that not all of them are good words." Lan Li turned to look at Rooney's side face, and then also took up a glass of milk, "when we talk face to face, the atmosphere is not very good, accidentally startled passers-by, the scene was a little out of control."

Listening to Langley's serious description, Rooney chuckled. "Fortunately, you're a gentleman, or David will be in danger."

Then Rooney went on, "he said you're going to read the play? You can hear that. He's very happy. "

"But I'm not sure I'm doing the right thing." Lan Li held the milk in both hands and felt the light temperature carefully, letting the muscles stretch out.

"What do you say?" Asked Rooney.

Lanli thought about it seriously. "He treats the script and the characters with an uncertain attitude. You know, every character in the story is a real existence. Whether the actor interprets it seriously and takes it seriously will eventually be presented from the picture. The actor needs to give the character enough respect. "

"But I'm always in a state of neglect. If I can't devote myself to the role, it's disrespect for the role and the script. I don't think it's fair. Maybe I should give the script to other actors, who will value and cherish the role more than me. "

Although lanli is in a low state now, his due respect and dedication have not changed. He hopes he can maintain enough professionalism.

"Maybe you should look at it from a different angle: your fear, your worry, including your withdrawal and burnout, just shows that you care. Otherwise, you can take over a role at will, or you can directly agree to David. Even if the performance quality is not perfect, no one will blame you. After all, You haven't encountered any bottleneck so far. Many people are rolling their eyes. "

The funny tone made Lan Li laugh.

"Well, you can stay in this state, really read the script, look at the characters, see if you can connect and resonate, and then make a decision. You should know that choice and decision are always in your hands, and no one can force you to do anything. "

Rooney is not sure if her interpretation is correct - after all, the problem, level and depth that Langley is facing is a matter of another level; What's more, the problem of artistic creation is more often a contest between oneself and oneself, and no one else can help.

But Rooney expressed her views and supported them.

Langley held the milk cup and was silent for a moment. "Do you think this script is suitable for me, too?"

This is a strange question. Even in the face of Andy, Langley seldom asks others for their opinions on the script, but now is a special period.

Rooney didn't answer directly, "remember when you came back to the west end? Leave the movie temporarily, calm down to polish yourself, and find your own rhythm again. I think the same is true of TV series. Different forms of presentation put forward different requirements for the way of performance. "

"In a relatively long period of time, TV plays need to show the changes and growth of the characters step by step, and then complement the core of the story. Of course, what we're talking about here is a limited series. If it's a long-lived series with five seasons and ten seasons, then it's another story. "

Rooney's tone is always relaxed, and the light warmth softens the indoor atmosphere.

"Remember your performance in the Pacific War? Eugene's growth and transformation are absolutely eye-catching, making countless people like this role; And this time the project, also have the opportunity to let you carefully slowly ponder the role, gradually let the role become full and rich

That's the end of the conversation, and then Rooney quiets down, leaving enough space for Langley to think.

In fact, Rooney and David expressed similar opinions

In the work of "soul Hunter", lanli is able to return to nature and start from scratch. Like a baby learning to walk, he rubs the characters bit by bit, stands in front of the camera in the most natural and purest state, and then slowly integrates into the characters to awaken his inner passion and enthusiasm.

Lan Li's worry is that he can't find the state, instead, he loses the purity and sincerity of the role itself.

But Rooney's point of view coincides with lanli's weakness: return to the original heart.

At the beginning, he returned to the west end of London, focused on breaking the basic skills of performance, and then found the driving force again. Four years have passed in a flash, and the traces of those time and years have become vicissitudes. He really needs to wash away the lead China's return.

Maybe, TV series are the right choice.

"Do you know what was the first thing I did when I entered the Pacific War?" The memory wakes up again, and the corner of lanli's mouth relaxes.

"Know Lamy?" Rooney turned to look at him, but did not ask why or what he thought, so she followed him. She also knew Lamy Marek, though she was not so familiar with him.

Lan Li chuckled, "no, it's not. The first thing we do is to get our own rank and uniform, and then call each other according to the characters in the play; At that time, Lamy and I had already known each other during the audition, so we naturally gathered together. It was always good to meet a familiar face in such a huge drama group. Lamy had played in many dramas and movies at that time, but his personality was never publicized, so he didn't make any waves in the drama group. "

Then, Lan Li talked about the stories of the first day of the cast, the conflict with the cast, the practice after changing boots, and the collective corpse after the end

With that, Lan Li's expression brightened up, and even began to make constant gestures to match his story, sending out joy all over his body.

In fact, those memories that were thought to be gradually indifferent never disappeared, just like the vast stars in the sky, quietly blooming its glory, and then guiding Lan Li to find the starting point of everything again, as well as the green and hazy, warm and joyful heart.

Rooney listened attentively, asked a few questions from time to time, or expressed her opinion, and naturally began to laugh.

Two people so cross legged sitting in front of the French window, if children in general, all night long talk.
