atypical hollywood life

Before Lilian passed away, she went to Broadway with Catherine, and even Catherine gave her more guidance on acting and stage skills. When she was nine years old, she could complete the theme song "Memory" of "Cat" completely and fluently. Although the voice was immature, the emotions contained in it shocked them. That kind of sad, painful but hopeful voice shouldn't come from a nine-year-old girl.

Arthur Miller has no hesitation in saying that his little granddaughter is a talent that shouldn't be wasted, and he's been aiming to bring Margaret to the big screen ever since.

Of course, he is a big player in the drama world. Those who play TV dramas look down on those who play music, and those who play movies look down on those who play TV dramas. Similarly, those who play dramas also look down on those who play movies. It depends on movies, and the audience of dramas is still too narrow to support stars.Those stars who later returned to Broadway were either to hone their acting skills, or because they were getting older and had fewer roles to play and wanted to maintain their influence. Which of the actors with beauty and acting skills had sharpened their heads and went to Hollywood squeeze?

So, why let Margaret take a detour?Wouldn't it be better to become famous directly in Hollywood?Even without Lilian's death, if Geffen came to the door, he would persuade Lilian to use Margaret to play Claudia.This opportunity is so good and so rare, why should an outsider be cheap, Geffen will not refuse this request, who is not acting? "Interview with the Vampire" is a literary film in name, but how can it be a pure literary film with Tom Cruise?At that time, with the box office and word-of-mouth, who can stop Margaret from soaring into the sky?

Ms. Louise Kent is a gentle and kind beautiful woman, with dark brown hair loosely tied on her head, light facial makeup, only eye makeup and light-colored lipstick, she looks very intellectual and elegant.

When we met, she was wearing an ankle-length skirt. The waist design of the skirt made her waistline smooth and slender, and the lines were beautiful and touching. People couldn't help but admire that this lady not only has a beautiful figure and face, but also has a good taste. The same is good, the overall clothing and makeup are very suitable for temperament, except for her slightly swaying posture and slow speed when she walks, I really can't find any faults.Andrea admired in her heart.

Yes, this girl did not leave after "Interview with the Vampire" was finished but continued to stay and become Margaret's personal assistant, helping her with some chores, including picking her up and down to Broadway and usual work matters, and used to pick up Margaret Lite's work is done by Nancy, but it is clear that school and Broadway are two different things, professional things should be handled by professional people.Of course, the salary during this time was paid by Margaret.

Compared with the big Andrea, as a person who has a very deep understanding of the human body, Margaret can easily see that there is something wrong with this lady's legs, either the knee, or the tibia, or One possibility is that she had an amputation.Reminiscent of the information she received before, Margaret determined the direction of the problem in her mind, and of course she didn't pay too much attention to it out of politeness.

"Arthur told me about you. You have great talent and learning ability. "Anne's Diary" is a stage play that does not require singing and dancing, but I think you should also know that stage plays pay more attention to the actors themselves. Infectious, so although "Anne's Diary" is not a musical, I still want to hear your voice, so that I can understand you better and make a study plan."

Louis Kent made a straightforward request. Even a stage play depends on the performance ability of a person. This is different from a movie. The lack of expressiveness can be covered up by singing and dancing skills, but the stage play requires enough emotional rendering to make the audience enter the play and hold their nerves until the end.If the quality itself is not up to standard, it will be a disaster for drama.

She herself was once a famous Broadway actor, so of course she knows what kind of talent will bring success to the theater.The appearance of the little girl in front of me can be considered top-notch, unlike most American little girls, she is more European, her temperament is much restrained, she is not childish and reckless, she has a good appearance, and the rest is the connotation, no The connotation is useless.

Ah... Margaret has a weird face and slightly opened her eyes. She really didn't expect to sing a part first. She has a general understanding of Louis Kent's thoughts and what she wants her to sing. It is definitely not the public It’s best to select some popular songs from operas, and musicals are also fine, but her favorite song fragments haven’t been released in the movie yet, so how do I sing them?scream?

Louis Kent took Margaret and Andrea out of the small reception room to the karaoke room behind.Most of her students are mixed in the drama circle and the music circle, and the studio has very complete music facilities.

Louis directly opened the wall of records, "Choose one you are good at, I heard Arthur said that your 'Memory' was done very well, don't choose this one today, it doesn't suit Annie's mood, choose an emotional explosive song Stronger ones, don't show off your skills."

Margaret nodded thoughtfully. Anne Frank is a tragic character. She needs a sense of pain that makes the audience feel the same. There is no need to choose it, except for Handel's Lasciach'iopianga. Who can meet this requirement?The tearjerker is naturally an aria, and the ability of this song "Let Me Weep" to express sadness in the aria is really a duty. Haven't you seen so many masters performing it?

"Handel's Lasciach'iopianga, thank you," Margarita began.

Louis Kent raised his eyebrows, it turned out to be this song, "Do you know Italian?"

"Understand some." When a person only has to wait for death and nothing else to do, he often has a lot of time to do some interesting things. She also devoted herself to eating those Italian movies and TV series. Do your best, and find an Italian professor to guide her.

Louis didn't speak, his fingers slid across the record wall, pulled out the record, and put it on the record player.

The stylus slowly slid across the film, and the sad music sounded. Margaret counted the beat in her heart, and then said:

"Lasciach'iopianga

mia cruda sorte,

Echesospirilalibertà!..."

Louis shuddered directly, the hairs on his body stood on end, oh, shit, this voice is so penetrating!Margaret's voice has not changed yet. Although the range is wide enough, her voice is still young and immature, but what is the emotion in this singing voice?How can a little girl have so much bitterness and hatred?

"Echesospiri,

echesospirilalibertà!

Lasciach'iopianga

mia cruda sorte,

Echesospirila..."

Margaret seems to have returned to that cold hospital bed again, her family members are holding her hand, anxious and painful, but she can only linger on the ventilator, she has to work hard to live for her family, even if death is Best relief for her...

"Ilduoloinfranga

questitorte

demieimartiri

solperpietà,

demieimartiri

solperpietà.

Echesospirilalibertà..."

After singing a song, Margaret pulled herself back from the memories to reality, and asked Louis Kent with her eyes if she satisfied her.

Louis Kent was full of disbelief. When he heard Arthur Miller say that his little granddaughter perfectly interpreted 'Memory', he thought he was putting gold on his face. A nine-year-old girl?Life has just begun, what experience can you have, and how can you sing the feelings in Lao Mao's heart?

But now she believes that this child is so gifted and expressive. If she hadn't heard it with her own ears, she really wouldn't have imagined that this soul-stirring song full of pain and shouts came from an 11-year-old girl. from the mouth.Taking away her age and experience, she can only be described as a genius.

She should go to the opera, an idea popped into Louise's head, and then he killed it. It was impossible.The possibility of this child even developing on Broadway is very slim. She has already acted in a movie. She also knows something about Lilian Miller. The little girl in front of her is likely to be nominated for an Oscar. How could she return to Broadway? What about being a young actor with no future?

After successfully getting Louis Kent's resignation, and making an appointment for class, Margaret and Andrea left.

Walking out of Louis Kent's studio, Margaret suddenly sighed. Andrea looked at her strangely, wondering why she was sighing. It's so good, the emotional rendering power is maxmax, why do I still look sad?

Margaret gave Andrea a sad look, and said a sentence in Chinese, "Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Baby." She is still too young to understand these messy intrigues.

If you want to see the basis of a person's lines, if you ask her to read two lines, it's over. Why do you have to go to such lengths to come up with a music selection?This has something to do with the line skills of the stage play, and it's not singing a musical.And the record player, when she was blind and couldn't see the CD player in the house?If you insist on using this antique machine to suppress the situation, don't you want to suppress her!

She knew about this lady's past before she came to see her.

A top student who graduated from the Juilliard School of Music, she was born in an opera family, but she herself devoted herself to Broadway.In just a few years, she went from a small supporting role on Broadway to a protagonist who can do the horizontal bar alone. Unfortunately, she was cheated to death by her alcoholic fiancé, and a car accident ruined her future.When the firefighters dragged her out of the car, her left calf was hopeless and had to be amputated, and her drunk fiancé died on the spot.The "Phantom of the Opera", which was supposed to be performed two days later, was also replaced.God bless, Christine couldn't sing and dance with half her legs even if she could fascinate Phantom and Shire, let alone she was still lying on the hospital bed at that time.This is much worse than Judi Dench losing the role of the old cat because of a broken bone in rehearsal.
