Best Movie Star

(There will be a chapter after twelve o'clock in the evening, to prepare for the list! Continue to ask for recommended tickets!)

The surroundings were quiet. Matthew stood in the center of the classroom, and Rachel McAdams stood two meters away from the opposite. Due to the lack of props, she made a gun gesture with her hand and pointed at Matthew's head.

David Astor's teaching is mainly practical, and it can even be said that it is aimed at the film and television industry in Hollywood.

Whether it is the previous dialogue scenes and the dead family scenes, or the kidnapping scenes that Matthew and Rachel McAdams are going to perform, they are the most common scenes in Hollywood movies or TV series.

The script that Matthew and Rachel McAdams got were not complicated. Matthew played a tough guy whose daughter was kidnapped, and Rachel McAdams was the kidnapper who threatened him.

"Hand over things!" The dimples on Rachel McAdams' face disappeared completely. The harder facial lines and the fine-tuning of the muscles made the whole face look like a vulture, especially the lips were deliberately opened to reveal two lines. The tightly clenched teeth brought out a fierceness, "Otherwise your daughter will die!"

As for his role, Matthew had thought about it just now, especially after David Astor's narration about the dialogue scene. This scene is about a tough guy and a kidnapper entangled in language, fundamentally Above all, it is a dialogue.

Therefore, he can't stand here foolishly like the dialogue in the Japanese comics.

Under normal circumstances, being kidnapped, especially being pointed at by a gun, most people will feel frightened, lose control of their emotions, and cry loudly. This is normal.

But in some scenes and some characters, this is not the case.

For example, in his current role, he is a tough guy!

What is a tough guy? Among the movies Matthew has seen, Bruce Willis in Die Hard, Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator 2, Sylvester in First Blood - Stallone, Tom Cruise of the "Mission Impossible" series, each interpreted it in their own way.

Matthew believes that such a tough guy must be very calm.

"Where did you hide her?" Matthew looked grim, "I won't give you anything until I can't see my daughter."

Just after the two lines were finished, David Astor frowned slightly, but said nothing.

"This young man named Matthew Horner has a good appearance." He has been watching the performances of the two, "but the level of acting is not complimented."

Even if he didn't need to distinguish carefully, he could see that Matthew Horner was imitating Tom Cruise, but unfortunately he only imitated the cool side of Tom Cruise, but not the other side behind the tough guy.

The performances of the two continued, but their performances were completely different.

Matthew always stared wide-eyed, puffed up his momentum, and put on a cold and tough look, but to outsiders, it was always an expression; Rachel McAdams was completely different, her acting skills may not be that good , but under the background of Matthew, he appears to be swaying freely, especially using the eyebrows, the corners of the mouth and the eyes, as well as the subtle changes in the muscles of the face, to make his expression more suitable for the atmosphere of dialogue rendering.

Everyone present could see that the performances of the two were not on the same level at all.

Even Matthew himself realized it.

Rachel McAdams looked particularly petite, but as soon as he played, the whole aura changed, and Matthew felt a word: reasonable.

Not only does this girl have a reasonable breath, her movements are reasonable, she even raises her eyebrows and curls her lips. He can't keep up with her rhythm at all. This problem is very serious. According to the requirements of the script, both characters are very tough, but his The strong one, Rachel McAdams is the slightly weaker one, but Rachel McAdams played the weak role of the kidnapper facing the super tough guy just right.

If he had to find a suitable description, Matthew thought that she was a big worker with a trowel in his hand on a construction site, and he was just a small worker who wielded a sledgehammer to cause damage, or a temporary one.

In the last half-minute of Matthew's play, he followed the rhythm of Rachel McAdams.

"stop!"

At the end of all the lines, David Astor shouted, and then came to Matthew and Rachel McAdams.

Matthew gave Rachel McAdams a slight nod.

Rachel McAdams was no longer the vulture she was before, and nodded slightly, her beautiful brows furrowed immediately, just now she was stealing the scene.

Indeed, she can't be completely blamed for this. The actor opposite her performed too ordinary, but in such a scene, she couldn't control her strength...

Rachel McAdams shook her head, knowing that her acting skills were far from good, let alone retractable.

As for the opposite actor named Matthew Horner, it's okay to play handsome and cool with his excellent appearance, and his acting skills are really not much.

"You're doing well." David Astor first said to Rachel McAdams, "What is lacking most now is a lot of long-term practice and enough performance experience."

He turned to everyone and said, "Performing is a skill, and there is only one way to improve it, and that is through constant practice. This is especially true of performing a skill related to body control, just as athletes are not born, but It's a constant practice!"

Matthew doesn't know what other people think of David Astor, but in the eyes of someone with enough social experience, what this guy teaches can be described as typical pragmatism.

Maybe there really are acting talents in this world who don't need much practice, but Matthew knows that he's not that kind of person.

Persistent practice! Matthew remembered this sentence firmly.

David-Astor continued to say to Matthew, "Your problem is obvious, the performance is inexperienced, and the performance form is simplistic and superficial."

Hearing what he said, Matthew nodded extremely seriously. He came here to find someone to guide him.

"Such a scene is either showing a cold face or a child-like stubbornness. The acting seems to be in place, but the details are ignored." David Astor continued to say to Matthew, "You acted very well just now. Grim, the problem is that it was your daughter who was kidnapped. The script wants you to portray not only a tough guy, but also a tender and good father! Only Grim..."

He shook his head, "Do you think it's appropriate?"

Matthew also shook his head, and at the same time asked actively, "Would it be better to add some worry and fear?"

"Yes." David Astor nodded first, then urged, "There is no specific quantitative standard for performance, it depends on the specific situation."

Of the fourteen people, most of them stared at David Astor attentively and listened carefully to his words. For many people who are not highly educated and have not received systematic performance learning, David Astor is very similar. a good teacher.

Afterwards, Matthew and Rachel McAdams exited the venue, and another pair of actors came in to perform.

In this acting class, Matthew was attentive from the beginning to the end, for fear of missing any useful knowledge. Compared with his talent and acting level, he may be ranked relatively low among everyone, but when it comes to the degree of concentration , no one can compare to him.

Even Rachel McAdams, who seemed very serious, was a long way off.

The morning class passed in a blink of an eye, and Matthew even felt that the time passed too fast. Unlike the others who left in a hurry, he chased out of the classroom and found David Astor, who had not gone far, and asked a self issues that are considered critical.

"Mr. Astor." He asked politely, "What is the key to being a good actor?"

Although he wants to be a Hollywood movie star, not an actor, he knows that the competition here is fierce. If his acting skills are not even basic, even if he is lucky enough to become popular, he will soon fall to the bottom. That is not what he wants. .

"Matthew, isn't it?" David Astor thought for a while and said, "I think actors should be humble, and not just superficial."

Hearing what he said, Matthew was confused and couldn't understand what it meant.

David Astor added, "Perfect acting doesn't exist. Therefore, we must always be in awe of beauty." He nodded to Matthew, "Learning to learn is a good thing, and it's rare in Hollywood. quality.”

Probably noticed that Matthew's seriousness and focus are different from others in class~www.wuxiaspot.com~ David Astor said, "Keep it up, so that when the opportunity arises, you can seize it capital."

He nodded to Matthew, turned and walked away.

Matthew scratched his head. Of course he understood what he said in the back, but he was a little confused in the previous words about humility.

He stood here and thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out. He simply walked towards the school's cafeteria. After a simple lunch, he sat and rested for a while. He came to another classroom and was ready to sign up for the school. language class.

In this classroom, Matthew saw a few familiar faces. Some of the people who took the class together in the morning also came to the language class, including Rachel McAdams, who played opposite roles.

Seeing that the seat next to Rachel McAdams was empty, Matthew walked over immediately.

"Hi, Rachel." He showed a very good personality and asked politely, "Is there anyone here?"

Seeing Matthew's sunny smile, Rachel McAdams also responded politely, "Hello, Matthew. No one, just sit down."

Matthew pulled out his chair, sat down, and asked, "What a coincidence, you also signed up for language classes."

"There's no way." Rachel McAdams said helplessly, "The agent said my accent was too heavy and had to be corrected."

Matthew laughed. "My agent said the same thing. She thought my Texas accent was too earthy."

Rachel McAdams felt the same way, "Isn't it true, my agent also thinks my Canadian accent is bad."

Having a common topic, the two gradually became familiar with each other.

At the same time, Helen Herman used her relationship with Ridley Scott to constantly communicate with the "Gladiator" crew, and got an opportunity for Matthew to actually appear in the media.
