Tom is not a performing genius, but he is very diligent. This is Tom's virtue; it is also the reason why Lance has confidence in Tom. 8 Novels`

Tom was chosen as a breakthrough point, not only because Michael Mann's version of "killing with a knife" was played by Tom, but also because Tom's star aura could win more negotiation space for Lance, but also because Tom's diligence, hard work and persistence allowed Lance to take advantage of Tom's desire for the Little Golden Man and truly gain a place in the awards season competition.

After the filming of the scene just now, Lance couldn't help but nodded slightly deep in his heart.

Objectively speaking, is Tom's performance perfect? ​​Is it comparable to geniuses like Daniel Day Lewis and Sean Penn? Of course not. After careful observation, you can still notice the traces of "idol" in Tom's performance. For example, when he curled the corners of his mouth, the curve seemed to be measured with a tape measure, showing Tom's charm intact; for example, after he lowered his head, his expression was too stiff, as if he was taking a hard photo of the magazine cover, more like posing, but the posture and expression did not tell the story... These are still details that cannot be erased in Tom's performance habits.

However, Tom gave the character Vincent a kind of indescribable charm in his performance just now - not a positive or negative meaning, but a kind of black humor. If Lance's performance fully demonstrates the coldness and decisiveness, then Tom's performance has a weird feeling of irony comedy, with a smile that always seems to be a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes are cold. This strong contrast reveals a strong effect under the reflection of the light; at the same time, Tom's speech rhythm and tone are not as tough as Lance. On the contrary, it also has a lingering chic-habitual charm, but this contrasts with the atmosphere that is tight to the extreme in the car, creating a cold humor that the plot itself does not have.

Perhaps, Tom's performance is still imperfect, but Lance can make full use of it and after integrating into the plot, he makes his performance full and abundant, and Tom also gives Vincent a completely different vitality.

Performance is a very personal thing. There are a thousand Hamlets per person, and each actor will give the performance its own imprint. Even in a vase, there are various styles, and actors and characters cannot be talked about. This is exactly what Lance likes most about performance. Many people like to experience different lives and different experiences during the performance, but what Lance likes is that the same scene bursts out with different charms under the interpretation of different actors. Or the same actor discovers his own different hearts when performing different scenes.

Tom was standing next to him and felt a little nervous. The feeling of ups and downs made him feel a little uncomfortable. The last time he felt this way was when he cooperated with Stanley Kubrick.

Looking at the performance on the monitor, Tom bit the inside of his lip and thought about it over and over again that he seemed to be restraining his smile. His eyes seemed too bright when he smiled, and his performance rhythm seemed to be too fast... How did Lance perform just now? Why did the memory in his mind start to become blurred?

"Oh..." Tom couldn't help but feel a little annoyed and wailed deep in his heart. His hands wrapped around his chest couldn't help but clenched into fists.

"Very good." Lance's voice came from the side. Tom couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He knew that he was going to shoot again. His performance was still not good enough. He nodded and said, "Okay!" But after saying it, he saw Lance turned around and shouting to Albert, "Prepare for the next scene." This made Tom stand in place a little stunned.

After waiting for a while, Tom's head came to his senses. He thought for a while, walked up and patted Lance's arm. "Are you sure this scene was fine just now? I think there are still some problems with the details."

Lance raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, but then he saw Tom's nervous expression and understood, "The greatest part of Tom's performance is that every performance is different, and no performance can be called perfect." After saying that, Lance smiled, "This one has passed just now, I said." He patted Tom's shoulder. Then he turned around and prepared for the next scene.

Tom carefully savored it, the smile on the corner of his mouth curled gently, and it couldn't help but bloomed. But then he immediately put away his smile and let out a long breath. The lines of his shoulders tensed up again, because he knew that this was just a scene, and there was still a long way to go before the filming of the entire movie was completed.

"No, no need to find extras anymore. We'll shoot here, remove the barrier belt of the crew, let pedestrians come in, and shoot in secret, and the effect will be better." Lance explained to Albert, "By the way, go and ask about the arrangements of the lighting team. The lighting in these shops on the roadside needs to be adjusted accordingly. You can go over and negotiate with the store quickly."

In this scene, Max's taxi was stopped by the traffic police because of the windshield being smashed and parked on the side of the road for review. Therefore, the lights on the side of the road need to be adjusted, and the preparation work is relatively cumbersome. This is the time to test Albert.

But Albert didn't feel it was cumbersome at all, so he turned around and became busy.

Watching Albert leave, Hayden walked over and whispered in Lance's ear, "Even if he was filming the 'Magnolia', Tom was not so nervous." Hayden is the second photographer of "Magnolia". Maybe Tom doesn't know him, but he will naturally not forget Tom.

Lance looked back and saw Tom sitting next to him and began to read the script again, but he was not proud of himself. He just patted Hayden on the shoulder and said meaningfully, "Trade, everything is just a transaction."

Don't look at Tom's mercy now, as if he's really convinced. But Lance knows that if the quality of the finished product is not satisfactory, or if he has not been able to make a difference in the awards season, even if Tom doesn't settle the score with him, Terence will not let it go easily.

Tom bowed his head because of what he promised, not because of his personality charm.

But at least it is certain that Lance won a phased victory in this hard battle tonight. In the next period of time, he can complete the shooting of "killing with a knife" according to his own ideas, which is good news.

This is true. After Tom gradually got into the best, the crew gradually got on track. Kate Beckinsale, Mark Ruffalo, Javier Baden and other actors were all assigned to each other, which allowed Lance to devote all his energy to the filming of the movie - ensuring that the narrative rhythm of "killing with a knife" can be tighter.

Michael Fassbender is a very hardworking new actor. He arrives at the crew as soon as possible almost every day, and then leaves with everyone when the crew finishes work, regardless of whether he has his scenes. At first, people thought Michael was just to please the crew staff and hoped to win more performance opportunities in the future, but later it became clear that Michael was to watch the shooting of every scene.

Albert found this really interesting. After asking him why he did this, he got an unexpected answer, "I am learning performance from Mr. Strello." Even Albert couldn't understand it, because Lance could not be regarded as a "master". As a director, only two works were released. As an actor, this is the first work. So why did Michael choose this?

Michael himself couldn't say anything, but simply felt that "I can learn a lot."

After Lance knew about this, he just smiled and didn't take it seriously. But Michael became a beautiful scenery for the crew. Later, Kate and Mark joined Michael one after another. Every scene would squat on the scene, observe all the shooting details, and then surrounded the monitor and listened to the discussion between Lance and Tom. These people seemed to be unable to shake off their tails, followed closely behind Lance, which also became a joke for the crew members.

"I know where Lance is when I see Michael."

This became an interesting talk for the crew of "Borrowing a Knife to Kill". At first, Lance felt that this was very disturbing. He felt that he was followed wherever he went. He scolded Michael several times, but it had little effect. Later, Lance found that they did not follow everywhere, mainly for performances. As long as he started talking about the show, they would appear, so Lance let it go. Anyway, this would also allow Michael and others to grow up quickly, which would be beneficial or harmless for the next shooting.

Unconsciously, Lance regained his work in his previous life - an acting teacher. This illusion did not make Lance feel nervous, but instead felt a little relaxed. In the days before he revealed the truth in his previous life, he simply chased his dreams and ran wildly. That innocent and pure life brought the most happiness. People are always like this. As they grow up, life becomes more and more complex, and happiness becomes more and more complicated, and happiness can never be found again; but in the end, they forget whether it is life or yourself.

In the blink of an eye, it has been two weeks since the "Borrowing a Knife" started, but the shooting progress is still slightly lower than expected. The main reason is that Lance is too picky and has put forward high requirements for lighting, performance, and camera movement. Fortunately, after the destruction of the running-in period, the crew has now been on track, and the entire crew has begun to mention it. If the shooting is at this pace, there is no problem to complete the shooting within the contract period.

"Have you heard it? Diorama Film has become the biggest hit in this year's awards season." A small piece of stone was thrown into the calm lake where "killing with a knife" and ripples rippled.
