[US Entertainment] Actor

Aaron Eckhart, one of the representatives of hard-core actors in Hollywood, is not well-known, but has a strong reputation in the film industry.Eckhart is just 39 years old this year. He has a tough and handsome appearance, but he made his debut with independent films, and he is also familiar with various types of roles.

Nolan invited Eckhart to play "Two-Face" because of his qualities. Aaron Eckhart has a gentle and bookish personality, but he can also control crazy characters. , Nolan's version of "Double-Faced Man" is really good. Aaron Eckhart's performance has been recognized by many people in the industry, and his career has risen to a higher level.

The last one was Heath Ledger standing there quietly with only a shy smile on his face.

"Hello, Ebert." Heath Ledger stretched out his right hand, but he didn't want Ebert to take a step faster, passed his hand, turned to lean on his shoulder and gave him a big hug, "Hello, 'clown'."

Judging from Heath Ledger's reaction, he was obviously taken aback by Ebert's sudden enthusiasm. After Ebert let go of him, he still had that expression of astonishment, and his body was slightly agitated. Stiff, lest Ebert suddenly attack and give him a more enthusiastic hug.

"Ebert Dawson...how is it different from what the media described?"

Heath Ledger looked puzzled.After agreeing to take the role of "Joker", he deliberately made some understanding of the other actors of the "Batman: The Dark Knight" crew, and the actor Albert Dawson is the object of his focus.

The 27-year-old Oscar winner, to be precise, Ebert was only 26 years old when he won the Oscar winner. In Heath Ledger's view, an actor who has achieved such great achievements at a young age should be full of pride. Ebert himself makes very few public appearances, and he doesn't often attend events that have nothing to do with the film, so not many people know his true character except the people around him and the actors who worked with him.

But no matter how he guessed, Heath Ledger did not expect that the character of this newly promoted actor would be so strange...but unexpectedly easy to get along with.

"Has he always been like this?" Heath Ledger asked the well-connected photographer beside him after he straightened his hair that was squeezed into a mess by Ebert.

"Ebert has been easy going, Heath, you'll like him."

Heath Ledger rubbed his swollen forehead and said with a low smile, "Maybe."

After starring in the biopic "I'm Not There", Heath Ledger felt that his mental state was in a bad situation. All day long insomnia, exhaustion, alcohol and working all night could not save him. He could only Pin your hopes on drugs.To make matters worse, Michelle is having conflicts with him. They used to love each other so much, they talked about everything, and they had the crystallization of their love, Matilda. The rift in the marriage cannot even be saved.

It is still daytime, and Heath Ledger felt that the sun was extremely dazzling. He tried to close his eyes slowly, hoping that the warm sunlight would make him feel sleepy. It would be better to get another bed so that he could sleep well while lying down. Get a good night's sleep. For people with chronic insomnia, getting a good night's sleep is more important than earning $100 million.

"You should have read the script many times." Gary Oldman put on his glasses, "It's really hard to imagine that this is a sequel to a commercial masterpiece. The ending is too unexpected. Rachel will die, which symbolizes With the righteous prosecutor becoming a 'two-faced man', Batman can only become a knight walking in the dark, and no one is the real winner, except the Joker."

"Maybe." Ebert was not in a daze. He was recalling the state of Heath Ledger just now. In his memory, Heath Ledger seemed to have passed away before "The Dark Knight" was released. So judging from the time, maybe at this moment he is in the double torment of spirit and body.

Ebert sighed silently.

Gary Oldman asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"

Ebert shook his head: "Nothing."

His thoughts wandered a bit.In his previous life, the biggest speculation about the cause of Heath Ledger's death was that he suffered from depression, and under normal circumstances, actors who suffer from depression or have a tendency to depression are not suitable for the excavation of "Joker" As a character with human nature and complicated thoughts, "Joker" has indeed gained countless affirmations for Heath Ledger. He is called the most outstanding "Joker" in history, and his death has become a regret in the hearts of countless movie fans and filmmakers. .

Therefore, rather than saying that "Joker" made Heath Ledger, it is better to say that Heath Ledger gave all the light left in his life to this character.After the death of Heath Ledger, countless filmmakers are also imagining how bright his future will be if he can survive. Oscar may have one more young actor, and he is even used to be tied with River Phoenix .

Ebert has always been confident in his acting skills, but he has always admitted that Heath Ledger is definitely the best actor of his age in Hollywood.A mediocre actor tends to get close to the role and act like what he plays, but an excellent actor can always dig out a different potential in the role and perform the deepest taste of the role. Heath Ledger is just such an actor.In all previous interpretations of the "Joker", the "Joker" is a face-made character, a villain, a villain who seems to have a problem with his mind, but Heath Ledger has discovered a different "Joker" ", it was his interpretation that made this character vibrant and charming, and became the most successful villain in the history of superhero movies.

If he only regards the "clown" as an ordinary character, he can perform it in a face-like manner, but he doesn't. He really thinks this character is very attractive, and even if he is facing great depression and pain, Even if the character's spiritual world broke him down, he did his best to play it well.

Even Ebert believes that Heath Ledger may have chosen to commit suicide precisely because he is a good actor.

A good actor will face the situation of entering the film many times in his film career. Ebert was also in a very bad mental state because of the filming of "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", but he recovered quickly after walking out , and he never had this kind of mental sinking experience in his subsequent filming.

He came out, so he won his first actor, and he can face every role with ease.

But obviously, Heath Ledger didn't come out.

Daniel Day Lewis is a typical experiential actor. Every time he plays a role, he will play the role from head to toe until he becomes obsessed. He even maintains the habit of that role for a long time. After playing a role, it takes him a long time to get out of that crazy state.It's a sad and hurtful way of acting, but the success that Daniel Day-Lewis has achieved is also enviable.In Ebert's previous life, he was the only actor who had won the best actor Oscar three times. In the extremely competitive department of best actor, such an achievement was unprecedented.

Silently glanced at Heath Ledger who was standing not far from him, Ebert moved his neck slightly, and finally went to study the script in silence.

The script of the second part is completely different from the first one.

In the first film, Nolan was still under pressure and constraints from Warner. Although the film incorporated Nolan's style, it still had the temperament of an American superhero blockbuster.But in the second part, the successive appearances of "Joker" and "Two-faced Man", and Batman's transformation from light to darkness, all of these factors reflect Nolan's ambition and his expectation to make "The Dark Knight" a classic. desire.

Although the British director is usually silent and doesn't like yelling on the set, his control over the script and crew is absolutely top-notch.

This is the difference between a good director and a mediocre director.Excellent directors can always complete the shaping of the film frame without making a fuss, and even the best actors are just puppets in their hands. In fact, if Heath Ledger hadn't shaped the role of "Joker" so profoundly, "The Dark Knight" will not be rated as a classic by many fans, but just imagine, Nolan's genius creativity combined with Heath Ledger's soul-shaking acting skills, the combined effect of the two is absolutely explosive .

What's more, now we have to add an Ebert.

Ebert thinks that Heath Ledger's performance is excellent, but he has no intention of serving as a background board. After all, this movie is a movie with Batman as the main character. If he is bleak by Heath Ledger If so, then I am afraid that he will also live up to the Oscar trophy awarded to him by the judges not long ago.

That night, just as Ebert took a shower and changed into his pajamas, Leonardo called.Ebert rushed to the bedroom with his pajamas in his arms, turned on the hands-free button of the phone, and put on his pajamas slowly.

Leonardo almost choked on his first words: "Ebert, you are really happy in my absence."

Ebert's head was full of paste: "???"

"You and Heath Ledger hugged for 1 minute, or you took the initiative, do you know how long 1 minute is? 60 seconds! If you hug me now, I think 60 seconds is a very long time, just hug It's very tiring to hold your arms. But you hugged him for 1 minute when you first met... Oh, you playboy, you heartless man, when we two first fell in love, when did you hug me for more than 1 minute? minute?"

"Wait... You said 1 minute, 60 seconds?"

"Ah."

Ebert feels that he is more wronged than Dou E. What is the concept of 60 seconds? It is enough for Ebert to listen to the prelude of a song. It is true that he hugged Heath Ledger, but the time will never exceed Six seconds, he is a man of integrity, except for Leonardo, no one will hold him for so long and kiss him for so long, okay?
