Movie Master

After Kate avoided her gaze, she saw the other person who was about to turn around and leave. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in her head, and she raised her voice and asked, Sir. She stopped the other person's footsteps, and then Kate paused, as if waiting Looking at the self-introduction of the other party, but the man just stood there with a cold face, without any emotional ups and downs. Kate could only bite the bullet and asked, What kind of project audition place are we here?

Percy slowly looked at the other three men standing beside him, and finally fell on Kate. The woman in front of her had long black hair combed into a high ponytail, showing her thin and heroic hair. Wearing a sapphire blue business suit on his face, the knight-like heroism and handsomeness are further highlighted. The bookish look between the brows softens the facial features, and the classical temperament that diffuses like smoke is unforgettable.

Even in Hollywood, where there are so many beauties, she has to admit that she is outstanding.

Her question was very clever, avoiding the embarrassing politeness, but she was able to get useful information, and at the same time, she was able to cover up the faux pas just now and show her kindness. Killing three birds with one stone is obviously not the vase it looks like. However, Percy didn't buy it, his expression still didn't change much, he just said in a cold voice, Empty shell project.

Such an answer immediately stunned several people, not knowing how to respond, and then Percy said, Maybe you should call the agent to confirm, then turned and left.

Kate looked at the indifferent and cold back, and opened her mouth, but the rest of the words were still stuck in her throat, and she didn't say it. It was obvious that they were rude, and she had nothing to say about the other party's attitude. Taking a deep breath, Kate turned her head to look at her partners, Have you seen Cole?

Jeremy nodded, When I came over, Cole was waiting outside. But he only stayed for a while, and he was called in before he had time to say anything. Jeremy also seemed a little Uneasy, he has not been an actor for a long time, and there are very few acting opportunities, every audition makes him very nervous, today's completely clueless audition makes his speech a little vague, Now Mark is auditioning inside.

Mark? Jason looked over in bewilderment.

Mark-Ruffalo, Neal explained from the sidelines, by the way, you haven't met him, Cole signed him last year, and then he was busy. A When he comes out, you can get to know each other.

Kate frowned in confusion, Mark is here too? Then what kind of work is this? I really have no idea!

Mark was born in independent film. He first entered the music academy to study, and then joined the theater troupe, engaged in drama performances. Mark has been in the underground theater troupe in Los Angeles for many years. He has worked in various positions such as actor, screenwriter, director and producer, but he never got the opportunity, so that he worked as a bartender for nearly nine years to make ends meet. Just as he was contemplating giving up acting, he landed a starring role in Kenneth-Lonergan's You Can Count on Me, and became such an overnight success that some local California film critics compared him to the early Marlon Brando for comparison.

However, after You Can Trust Me, Mark still couldn't get better works, and his career didn't make more breakthroughs. He even started acting in I Want to Fly to the Sky, Girls Dream Thirty and other chicks Movie. The career has entered a stage of stalemate. Cole signed Mark last year because he took a fancy to Mark's solid performance skills and multi-faceted talents, hoping to make a breakthrough.

If these few people gather together, it looks like an action commercial movie, then the appearance of Mark makes people puzzled.

In fact, Cole and Mark did not understand the situation at this time. They looked at Lance who was sitting on the chair and flipping through the materials anxiously, and the silence was oppressive and suffocating.

Lance filtered the information submitted by Cole, and immediately understood Cole's misunderstanding. He didn't really understand the core idea of ​​the work Murder with a Borrowing Knife, and still regarded this work as a commercial crime work. , so most of the actors introduced are of the same type-have a certain ability for action scenes, and at the same time, the performance will not be too bad. This also confirmed Cole's previous statement: he really didn't understand the script.

However, Lance was quite surprised that Mark would appear in today's audition lineup. Although many people knew Mark because of the role of the most successful Hulk in the Marvel series of films, Lance knew that Mark His acting skills are also quite solid, as evidenced by his two Oscar nominations for Best Supporting Actor.

After looking through the information, Lance found that Mark was from a theater troupe, which is obviously a positive signal. For Murder with a Borrowing Knife, what is needed is this kind of actor with solid basic skills. This type of actor has a very deep comprehension and absorption of the script. Maybe there is no scene where the acting skills explode, but they can show the role through the acting skills strength.

Mark adjusted his position anxiously. He was nervous not because of Lance sitting opposite, but because of the silent and oppressive atmosphere.

He has worked hard in Hollywood for ten years. Even after the success of You Can Trust Me, four years have passed in a blink of an eye. He has participated in 800 or 1000 auditions. He also participated in Wind Whispers The super-large audition that thousands of people participated in, so such a small scene naturally wouldn't make him flustered.

But Mark disagrees with Cole's choice. The reason why he changed his agent was that he didn't want to appear in those bad and vulgar commercial movies anymore, but wanted to appear in some real art movies to polish his acting skills.

But today's Murder with a Borrowing Knife seems to be another commercial film, and the director is still a fledgling newcomer-he likes independent directors, and he also knows City of God; but he also knows that Lance He has successfully transformed, and he is another person who clings to Hollywood power. Mark has no objection to this, because everyone in Hollywood is like this, and he is no exception. It's just that Mark simply doesn't want to appear in commercial movies anymore-he doesn't think Lance and Tom's partner can put any test on acting skills .

Therefore, facing this silent atmosphere at this time, Mark seemed a little irritable, and he even considered standing up and turning around to leave. Recalling the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind that Cole took over for him last year, he forced himself to take a deep breath and squeeze out the last bit of patience like squeezing toothpaste.

This is a crime scene, on a street. Lance's voice rang out without warning, startling Mark, and quickly gathered the focus, only to find that Lance raised his head and looked over, that The bright eyes like Wang Dahai are calm, but deep and boundless, hiding countless mysterious rays of light, There is only a lot of broken glass on the ground, and the windows on the fourth floor of the building next to it have been broken, and some blood can be vaguely seen, but except Other than that, there's nothing left.

Mark felt himself distracted, and he forced himself to pay full attention. There was no pause in Lance's words, The room on the fourth floor is the temporary residence of a drug dealer. Four months ago, he became your informant and had something to do with a big case involving Felix. Contact, but only a small character. When you arrive at the scene, he has disappeared, and there is no other sign of fighting except for the broken door lock. Good, you can start.

Mark froze for a moment, feeling that his brain was a mess, What to start? By the time he realized it, he had already asked this sentence.

Lance turned his head to look at Cole, pursed the corners of his mouth, and a smile flickered in his eyes, which made Cole a little embarrassed. Not to mention Lance, even Cole noticed Mark's distraction. But Lance immediately looked at Mark again, It's up to you to decide, you're a policeman, and you're trying to figure out what happened.

Mark felt that his brain was a bit overwhelmed. He is an actor, he is not a policeman, but now he is asked to handle the case as a policeman. What kind of audition is this?

So, what happened? Lance said casually after waiting for a while.

Mark took a deep look at Lance, then clenched his teeth and closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and stroked his hair with his right hand in annoyance, I don't know, I'm trying to figure it out too. I have an appointment with him tonight , but he didn't show up, after he came here, he left this for me. Mark's tone seemed a little irritable, and there was some confusion in it.

How long have you been working with him? Lance raised his eyebrows, said absently, and then looked down at the information in his hand, as if he didn't care about the audition at all.

Uh... four months. Mark only felt a fire burning in his chest, and Lance's carelessness made him feel very uncomfortable. In fact, in most of the audition scenes, the people who are responsible for the scenes are the staff. They are only responsible for reading the lines, not performing. It is not surprising that Lance is in a state, but Mark feels that he has no way to calm down. It's just too distracting.

Mark turned his head, took a deep breath, and then forced himself to continue the audition, He is connected to a major case, and I think there must be something wrong with it.

Lance still didn't look up, pursed the corners of his mouth, his brows were full of indifference, Those big cases will eventually be attributed to the FBI, and have nothing to do with us, why do you care so much?

What I care about is that this is our job, this is our jurisdiction, and he is my informant. Now that he is dead, if I don't investigate, who can you count on! Mark said heartily All the anger in my heart was vented through the performance, and those eyes were flickering with horror.

Is there a crime here? Lance looked up, with a casual and lazy look on the corner of his mouth, Murder? What about your body? I only saw a bunch of glass.

Mark only felt that his brain seemed to be blocked in an instant, and he was speechless at all. The irritable emotion was boiling in his chest, but he couldn't vent it. Looking at Lance's expression that deserved to be beaten, he just wanted to be ruthless. Teach him a lesson!
