Tom picked up the teacup and paused a little, looked up at Lance, "Yes, he called me to tell me some basic situations. 8 Novel `But my agent said that the script has not yet been released, and you are still being revised." This is also the direct reason why Tom met Lance today. After saying that, Tom slowly leaned towards the back of the chair, crossed his legs, and took the initiative in the conversation in his hands.

"This is a difficult task, isn't it?" Tom's words actually asked Lance to take the initiative to introduce the summary of the script and the situation of the character. At least Tom needs to have more information about the script in depth before Tom can make a judgment. However, Lance did not follow Tom's words, but just sighed without any pain, which made Tom's move to leaning against the back of the chair pause for a moment, and then he heard Lance continue, "What information did Brad tell you?"

Lance is trying to understand everything and get the initiative back little by little.

"Nothing." Tom shrugged and said lightly, "except that you are the director of the movie and that the script is under your charge..." Tom paused, raised his eyes and looked at Lance, "and then you might be playing opposite me and give me a huge surprise. There is nothing else."

Lance was amused by Tom's calm tone, "We all have objections to this, but we can find a common ground."

Brad still couldn't convince Lance.

The actor is indeed a dream that Lance cannot give up. In his last life, when he arrived in New York, the first thing he did was to attend an audition on Broadway outside the West - and at that time he did not even determine where he lived that night. The actor's dream was Li Jin's obsession; the director's dream was Strello's obsession; the movie's dream was the common obsession between them. But in the face of the hatred of Diorama Film, dreams were just cheap sweet words, and Lance would not be shaken easily.

What's more, "killing with a knife" does not seem to be the most suitable choice.`

First, Paramount's invitation seemed more like a joke. Brad Gray was just talking casually on a whim. Lance didn't believe that the other party fell in love with him just because he saw his resume at the Royal Academy of Drama Arts. Even if Brad wanted to create a cast similar to "night visit to vampires", Hollywood had more choices than Lance. Conversely, if he played as a vase, the value of acting was not that great for Lance.

More importantly, Tom Cruise is the most important thing at the moment. If "killing someone with a knife" wants to impress Tom, then Lance must make him believe that this is indeed a work that has the hope of winning the Oscars, or even a work that wins the Little Golden Man. Therefore, the actors in the rival scenes naturally cannot be taken lightly. Tom must be able to make a better move without losing the lead. The actor "Lancelot Strello" is not convincing. In the overall plan, Tom is the top priority at present, and this is the choice that suits interests. As for his own dream, he can give up.

Of course, the unfinished script is also a core issue. "Borrowing a knife to kill" is an important work in Chaos Pictures' next exhibition, and Lance will never allow any accidents. Therefore, in the face of Brad's insistence, Lance did not nod.

However, the focus today is not Lance. He does not intend to keep the topic around him, so Lance takes it over in the way of playing Tai Chi, and then says, "But Brad didn't tell you. This character is tailored for you, and the goal is Oscar Little Golden Man."

When I heard the first half, Tom was very calm because with his current position - every character who came to him was tailored for him; when I heard the second half, Tom smiled, "Dear, someone told you that Hollywood is a very small area, but also a big world?"

潜台词就是:不知天高地厚.8小说`

"Tom, if everyone told you now. Hey, you will never be able to win the Oscars, how would you react? Thinking that what they are saying is the facts, your acting career will stop here, and you will never be able to get an Oscar? Or go back to mocking and use your actual actions to prove your strength. Tell me, in your acting career, how many challenges, how many troughs, how many doubts have you faced, and then you stood up again?"

Lance's words were both slow and slow, but powerful, full of strong confidence and firmness. Tom did not interrupt him, but after Lance finished speaking, Tom calmly took a sip of the black tea in the cup, as if enjoying the fragrance of black tea. "Lance, the provocation has no effect on me. To be honest, you are not Martin Scorsese, why do you think your work can win an Oscar-like acting skills? "

Although "City of God" shines with Oscars, it has not been awarded the acting award. Of course, the main reason is that the protagonist of this movie is the City of God, not any character; there is no need to say more about "the day after tomorrow", pure commercial popcorn movies must have been not awarded the acting.

Many people can't see Lance's ability to tune/teach acting skills.

In fact, real acting professionals can taste some signs from "City of God". Lance faces a group of children with no acting experience - many of them are illiterate at all, let alone reading scripts or observing the camera. But under Lance's tune/teaching, they have dedicated real and sharp performances, and this skill is not something that anyone can achieve.

显然,汤姆也没有看出来.

Objectively speaking, Tom's talent is really not about acting, and so is Brad Pitt. Leonardo DiCaprio is talented, but he fell into a bottleneck early on and was unable to get out of his own shackles. He kept stalking in place and pursued the Little Golden Man for many years, but he often lacked a little luck - why? Because every time someone will perform more excitingly than him.

But Lance naturally would not say it directly. He took out a document from his briefcase and placed it on the coffee table in front of Tom. "Because I wrote a character that is both difficult and profound, I hope you can truly analyze, understand, in-depth, and interpret the role. Of course, this requires huge work and our cooperation. The focus is never on me, but on how much potential you have, how much potential you can exert, and how much effort you are willing to put in."

Lance still used the provocation method, but this time Tom did not refute, but looked at Lance seriously, trying to find more information from Lance's eyes. Lance was not in a hurry, but just sat calmly on the sand and calmly met Tom's gaze, neither humble nor arrogant, nor retreating.

This reminded Tom of the joke between the two people on Oscar Night. "If you want, you can also stand on that stage."

这,仅仅只是玩笑话吗?

As a member of the top of the Hollywood pyramid, Tom can almost say that he has everything, but he has never been able to truly get rid of the shadow of the "varnish". He tried to prove himself with his strength, and he tried to make more breakthroughs in his acting skills. In fact, as early as 1989, he relied on "Born on July 4th" to win the Oscar nomination for Best Actor, and then won two Oscar nominations for "Mr. Sweetheart" and "Magnolia". However, no one has ever truly affirmed his strength.

This is unfair to Tom, but this is Hollywood. People only see the critics' harshness on actresses. It seems that actresses are always frozen in the position of "vase"; but in fact, in terms of performance, the critics are often tolerant of actresses. It seems that a vase can win applause with a slightly good performance, but the critics are extremely strict with male actors. Every year, it is difficult to make it to be successful in the Oscars' final battle for the Oscars.

Tom was always looking for his first Oscar Little Golden Man, but the cruel reality is that it was extremely difficult for him to get a nomination, from "eye-opening" to "Vanilla Sky" to "The Last Samurai". In fact, his performance in these works was good, and he also received nominations in many film critic associations, but in the end they all fell before the Oscar nomination threshold.

那么,兰斯会是他的下一次机会吗?

Tom looked at Lance in front of him carefully. To be honest, Lance didn't have much capital to convince him, right? "City of God" is just the only proof. In Hollywood, Lance is a completely newcomer rookie; but Lance's unwavering eyes and calm attitude changed the doubts in Tom's mind - from questioning Lance to curiosity about the script.

Tom hesitated for a moment, put the teacup on the table, bent down and picked up the script on the table, and then flipped through it. But to his surprise, this was not a script, but... a story, a story of a man named Vincent, which began with, "Vincent, whose original name was Vince-Rever, was born in Minnesota in 1962. The day when Vincent was born was a sunny day, and the bright sunshine filled the breath of the forest..."

This is actually a small biography! Tom couldn't help but look up and glanced at Lance. He obviously didn't understand what the story was going on. Could it be that "killing someone with a knife" is a biography movie? But judging from the information he got from his agent, it was a thriller crime movie. Did Lance bring the file wrong?

However, Lance seemed to have not noticed Tom's eyes at all, slowly leaned towards the back of the chair, picked up his black tea cup, and slowly began to taste the leisurely afternoon tea, calm and comfortable; Tom paused, and found that Lance had no intention of answering his doubts at all. His confident posture made him stunned. After turning his head twice, he lowered his head again and continued to read the stories in his hand.

The control of initiative seems to have changed quietly.
