Chapter 330 330 Actor Value

After adjustment, Hugo finally finished filming the scene, but after the deputy director called "Card", Hugo still stood there blankly without coming back to his senses. His whole spirit is now tense to the extreme. This situation is worse than "Seattle Night Not Sleeping". Not only is it too deep into the scene, but Hugo's conscience in his heart is constantly tormenting his psychology. It is like two big hands tearing Hugo's soul hard, making his complete personality be forced to be divided into two parts, angels and demons.

The competition between the two personalities is so real, just like a real conversation between Hugo and Amon. On the one hand, Amon said coldly with a smile, "What a wonderful picture, this is the treatment that these inferior nations should bear"; on the other hand, Hugo said firmly, "All this is wrong, all this is unforgivable. But... all this is just the filming work of the movie."

Because Hugo's thinking about the role of Amon Gos was too well done, Hugo could make Regina, Ludger and other survivors who had experienced the disaster personally mistakenly think that they saw the real Amon when they saw Hugo, and shivered uncontrollably. This is a good thing for the movie. But on the other hand, Hugo was too deeply involved in the role and could not extricate himself. The remaining reason in his heart kept shouting, trying to wake Hugo up, but the effect was too weak.

This emotional pull made Hugo feel that his soul was howling. No wonder it is said that split personality can easily cause bad consequences. Now Hugo is experiencing the pain of the soul being torn apart, which makes him feel in pain.

At this time, a figure appeared in Hugo's sight. Hugo only felt a shadow in front of him, and subconsciously took a half step back. Only then did he see clearly the person in front of him. Regina, wearing a coat. Regina's face was filled with a kind smile and said, "Hugo, this is not your fault, nor what you think."

Seeing Regina reaching out his old right hand to him, Hugo raised his right hand and reached to the buttstock at his waist without thinking. When Hugo's right hand held the leather of the buttstock, he realized that he had gone astray. His conditioned reflex just now was to shoot Regina, and this feeling defeated Hugo in an instant.

Regina couldn't help but stop, and stopped in mid-air. He looked at the coldness flashing through Hugo's amber eyes, and his body shivered directly. The man standing in front of him seemed to be the demonic Amon, but Regina soon recovered because he saw Hugo's right hand stopped like this, and then Hugo's eyes were occupied by a wave of invading fragility, which made Regina feel at ease.

His right hand stretched out again, but stopped over Hugo's shoulders. Regina looked at the Nazi uniform on Hugo. Perhaps to others, this was just a piece of clothing and had no representation. But only those who had truly experienced that dark years would know how profound the harm this uniform had caused to them.

Regina's right hand stopped in mid-air, affecting Hugo's tired and confused eyes, and whispered, "Hugo, you're just completing your work." After saying that, he hesitated for a while, and his right hand finally landed on Hugo's shoulder, patted it twice before turning around and leaving.

Regina's slap was so light, as if she was stroking the dust on his shoulders, but it was as heavy as a pound of pounds in Hugo's heart, which made Hugo's heart, which had been trapped in confusion and contradiction, finally revealed a ray of light. Looking at Regina's thin back turning and leaving, Hugo's heart was filled with storm, and the slight sensation of rational voice became louder and louder, and became more and more determined, "This is your job, and it is also the value of your being an actor!"

Hugo closed his eyes hard and savored the bloody feeling of dancing wildly on his heart. Perhaps, this is the charm of the performance, presenting the real or fictional characters written by the screenwriter in his own way, becoming part of the movie, presenting them in artistic ways, and completing the director's inner emotions.

This kind of performance that makes oneself unable to distinguish between reality and drama is not just a job, but also an artistic form of expression. Perhaps, this is what Hugo has always pursued, whether it is music or performance, and uses these carriers to express his inner emotions in real and vividly, thus resonating with people.

Half a century later, many young people do not remember or even know the turmoil and chaos of the war years. The evil deeds made by the Nazis against the Jews have been recorded in history, but they were once again denied by the neo-Nazis because of the collapse of the Berlin Wall. Hugo is not a great man or superman, he is just an actor, but he can become a part of the story of "Schindler's List" and use his own ability to reproduce the tip of the iceberg of the Holocaust during World War II, allowing those anti-Semitic elements to recall the Nazi image with their hands covered in Jewish blood! This is the value of Hugo as an actor.

So, from this perspective, Hugo is a very competent and dedicated actor who has done his job well.

In fact, it is not just "Schindler's list". This is true for every character in "Smelling the fragrance and knowing women", "Yihai Heroes", and "Seattle Night", because each character is a real image constructed by the screenwriter's pen, and they all embody the true emotions of a certain group of people. The transformation, breakthrough and progress completed by Hugo in the movie may awaken their inner touch, thereby obtaining emotional catharsis, and even changes in life. Even if it is just a little change, or a pleasant catharsis, then this is Hugo's success as an actor.

Of course, this is also the value and charm of the movie. It presents the various ideas, thoughts and memories of people in life with artistic techniques. It may be real history, fictional fantasy, emotional sustenance, or joy. People seek spiritual joy from movies, maybe a heartless laugh, maybe a thrilling adventure, maybe a creepy fear, maybe a heart-wrenching love, or maybe a life with endless aftertaste. If a movie does not even have the ability to curse and complain, let alone enjoy it, then this movie is a real failure. Otherwise, even a spoof movie that is worthy of making people complain or make a smile, it has its audience.

A lot of mixed thoughts surged in Hugo's mind, but it gradually made Hugo's consciousness clearer, and the shadow of Amon Goss slowly faded, which made Hugo completely emerge from the filming of the movie. It turned out that getting into the role and getting out of the movie is not easy. A truly outstanding actor must not only be able to perfectly present the essence of the character, but also be able to distinguish the movie from life. Otherwise, the complex disputes in the movie story will only make the actor's life fragmented.

And Hugo, obviously, is still a long way from a truly outstanding actor now.

"Are you okay?" Joseph has been paying attention to Hugo. He could clearly feel the pressure on Hugo's shoulders that is comparable to the Alps. For Hugo, this movie is not only an unprecedented challenge in terms of character difficulty, but also an unimaginable heavy emotional weight.

After the deputy director called "Card", Joseph wanted to go forward and ask about Hugo's situation, but after seeing Regina step forward, Joseph's pace couldn't help but slow down.

Seeing the familiar figure, this down-to-earth trust slowed down Hugo's heartbeat a little. He adjusted his breathing and waved his hand to Joseph, "I'm fine." Joseph could clearly see the tired look between Hugo's eyebrows, and Hugo always lowered his eyes, making people unable to see the emotions in his eyes. Joseph knew that this meant that Hugo had not completely walked out of Amon's state.

"You should take a break." Joseph persuaded him.

This time, Hugo did not refute, but nodded slightly and walked quickly towards the lounge. Joseph stood there and thought for a while. He was not sure whether he should let Hugo be alone and quiet or talk with Hugo to distract him. However, before Joseph made the decision, the staff next to him made the decision on behalf of Joseph, "Hugo, your phone number." This made both Hugo and Joseph stop.

Since the crew of "Schindler's List" stayed in Poland and was an almost closed filming team, and Hugo was preparing for the role in the past and afterwards, it could be said that he had completely cut off contact with the outside world. If Joseph had not kept in touch with Carl and understood the situation in Los Angeles, Hugo would almost think he had entered another space.

So, when a phone call came to the crew to look for Hugo, Hugo was quite surprised. Before Hugo asked questions, the staff took the lead in answering, "The phone call from Los Angeles is Robin Williams."

Hugo should naturally be familiar with this name. They worked together on the "Death Poetry Club", but to be honest, Hugo and Robin had almost no private connection. After all, the age difference between the two was sixteen years old and they were not considered friends. So, Hugo looked at the staff in surprise, "Look for me? Not Steven?"

Robin and Steven Spielberg are very good friends. They had previously worked together to film "Captain Iron Hook" and had a very close relationship. After Hugo joined the crew, Robin once called Hugo and brought greetings and sent blessings. But more often, Robin still called Steven to enlighten Steven's entangled and gloomy mood. But unexpectedly, Robin actually called himself on his own initiative today.

The staff smiled and shrugged, "I think you are the only one Hugo in the crew."

Faced with such a joke, Hugo did not smile, but looked back at Joseph. After receiving a reply from Joseph, Hugo took the step and answered the phone.
