puff.
puff.
puff.
The sound of Renly’s strong heartbeat came from his ears, making the whole world quiet. It seemed that his head and heart were all filled with that kind of throbbing throbbing, and thousands of butterflies fluttered their wings in their lower abdomens at the same time. , that joy and happiness make everything around him darken.
“Such a surprise, you should do less of it in the future.” Rooney said in a low voice.
Renly was slightly surprised, “Huh?”
“Because this is so happy and beautiful, I’m worried that I’ll start to become dependent and never let go.” Rooney’s voice had a faint smile, but that The loneliness behind this smile made Renly feel the same, he knew, he understood, he knew that he felt the same way as she did.
Rooney said quietly, without complaining or anger, but calm and calm after getting used to it, “When I was a child, I always liked to follow behind my mother, no matter where she went, I would follow her, because she was She is so perfect, I am imitating every detail of her body step by step, I hope to be a woman like her. But the funny thing is that when I grow up and look back on my childhood, I can’t tell whether I am greedy for my mother. I still want to be a woman like my mother and win my father’s attention.”
“Suddenly, I realized that I was actually just my mother’s Barbie doll, and she wanted me to be like a lifeless doll, studying talent and going to college, and then I could pack it. Dress up and marry other families.”
“Of course, she didn’t say that outright, but she always told me that the greatest value of a woman in a family like ours is to bring benefits to the family. It’s the twenty-first century. Now, we can completely choose our own reason, and the family will not force us; but once we choose our own path, it means that there is no use value, and they will not continue to invest.”
“She is calm, because she has accepted her fate, and she has accepted the shackles. Kate is not willing, she wants to stand in the limelight and win more attention; I am not willing, but I am not sure, what am I Was it a simple but hard truth to escape the shackles, or was it because I really liked acting. I don’t know, I’m not sure, I was just… just running away.”
“All the way to Telluride. ”
She met him.
“I’m used to facing all problems by myself over the years. So, don’t be too good to me, don’t make me dependent, I’m worried that I may never go back, I can’t be independent, I can’t Accept yourself alone. Just a little bit, a little bit every now and then, just like now.”
Rooney couldn’t help herself,
She hugged Ren Li tightly with both hands, her body trembled slightly because she was too hard, the surging emotion made her eyes turn slightly red, she noticed Ren Li’s gaze, hot and hot. It landed lightly on her cheek, she was a little embarrassed.
She had to bury her cheeks a little deeper, “Sorry, my period, I must be like a lunatic now.” Rooney didn’t know what was wrong with her. The mellow woody aroma on Renly’s body made her heart unbearable. She shivered slightly, and then her emotions completely burst like this.
The corners of Renly’s mouth rose slightly, and he didn’t say anything, just a kiss on the top of Rooney’s head.
Quietly enjoying a moment of comfort and warmth, and when Rooney’s body calmed down a little, and her mood seemed to return to her usual calm, Renly said softly, “Let’s slow down a bit, take your time, okay? It’s like two hedgehogs are approaching each other, let’s slow down a bit, slow down a bit, don’t rush. Okay?”
Rooney said so.
Isn’t that the case with Renly?
Rooney took a deep breath and chuckled softly, “Yeah”, she responded, and her tense emotions gradually relaxed completely, “I like the smell on your body.”
“Don’t get used to it, Otherwise, I would have to travel twelve hours to visit the class every time.” Renly joked.
Rooney understood immediately, and she couldn’t help laughing, “You mean, this is the smell of sweat? It’s really stinky, how could the smell of sweat be this?”
Rooney raised her head and supported Renly with her chin. Her chest, her eyes met, and the rays of light from the depths of her pupils were intertwined and reflected together, and she could see each other’s faces, and then she saw Renly’s eyebrows raised slightly, “Why, you don’t like the smell of my sweat. Why do I feel that you are completely in love now, you are so in love, you can’t leave me at all, sigh, I’m going to Los Angeles to shoot in the afternoon, what are you going to do?”
“It turns out that the famous Renly also So narcissistic, tsk tsk tsk.” Rooney wrinkled her nose and complained mischievously.
Renly’s face was calm, “Every actor must be narcissistic, this is my famous saying, haven’t you heard it?”
Rooney couldn’t help laughing happily.
Renly lowered his head and placed a light kiss on Rooney’s nose, “It’s getting ready, the staff downstairs should be ready.”
“Ah! Right!” Patting his cheek, “No wonder history always says that beauty delays state affairs. Now I finally understand what that means.”
After speaking, Rooney took the script and left the room in a hurry, trotting downstairs. Going down, Rooney’s brisk laughter could be heard amid the creaking sound of the stairs and planks. It seemed that the whole world had brightened up, and even the corners of Renly’s mouth rose.
After waiting for a while, Renly also left the room, but instead of going straight downstairs, he circled around the second floor, as if he was looking for something, and then found his target in the kitchen on the first floor:
Director Todd Hay ince.
In order to conceal the real purpose of his visit to the class, Renly had already had a draft on his chest and knocked on the door lightly, attracting the attention of Todd who was drinking coffee. Renly showed a polite smile, as if he had come to visit the class specially today. , and then the first thing is to visit the director in general.
“Good morning, Director, I’m Renly Hall.” Renly stretched out his right hand and greeted Todd.
Todd was obviously a little stunned, with a cloudy expression on his face, he didn’t know what was going on at all, “…Renly?” His voice was full of confusion, “You, how did you get here?” Todd Holding Renly’s right hand, his expression was more of surprise – because he and Renly really have nothing to do with each other, and Todd is a director who is very good at capturing femininity, but his training on male actors is a little bit obvious. Not enough.
“I made a special trip to visit, I hope it didn’t disrupt your shooting plans.” Renly said with a smile, “Kate and Rooney are both good friends. Back then, the script of ‘Carol’ came to Sisyphus Films. When I was a professional, I made a special trip to recommend Rooney to play, I think she is very suitable for this role.”
The content of the words are all true, but the key parts are concealed, and the whole open and honest performance has cut off all suspicions.
At this point, Todd was slow to react: Renly is one of the founders of Sisyphus Pictures and one of the nominal producers of “Carol”.
It’s just that Renly didn’t intervene in his work from start to finish, respecting his creative freedom so much that he forgot about it.
“Of course, of course!” Todd then reacted, “Kate and Rooney are the perfect actors.” He was still a little reserved, not because of Renly’s reputation, but because he was not very good at all. Love this kind of polite greeting.
Although Todd is 53 years old this year, he still has the youthful air of a refined scholar. His shirt is paired with jeans and sneakers. Even if he is in the university library, there is no sense of disobedience. It is reminiscent of young people with a young mind Professor; and the middle-class elite temperament exuding from the inside out also reveals a good family education and knowledge.
“I’ve watched ‘I’m Not There’, it’s very bold and very pioneering, although I don’t like it personally, but the whole form and structure is very interesting.” Renly took the initiative to mention Todd’s work, showing the industry insider professional, trying to ease the atmosphere.
Sure enough, Todd visibly relaxed a little, “Sorry, I haven’t seen your work and can’t say the same thing. But what exactly do you mean when you say avant-garde photography? I don’t think the ‘I’m not there’ experiment What a novel and outstanding temperament.” The
straight and honest words made Renly laugh: This should be the first person after EGOT who said to Renly that he had never watched his works, “The shooting method is not for the time being. Saying six actors to play the same role was a very bold choice in itself.”
“I Wasn’t There” was a Bob Dylan biopic, and Todd chose six actors to play Bob Dylan. Lun’s experiences in different eras, including actors of different types such as blacks and women, can be described as very special.
Among the actresses is Cate Blanchett.
“I think that the six actors represent different aspects of Bob Dylan, and different expressions of different moods at different stages. The core of the whole film is not the story, but a temperament of this folk master. UU Reading www .sonicmtl.com For me, you are trying to capture his varied, contradictory yet unified temperament, which is a very bold and pioneering attempt.” Renly also frankly expressed his true thoughts.
Todd immediately showed a meaningful expression, and it was clear that Renly was not being polite, but had actually watched the film and thought about it.
“But you don’t like that movie.” Todd again gave an unexpected response.
“Ha.” Renly couldn’t help laughing. “Indeed, I don’t like it. I don’t think my personal needs are important to the director.”
Todd nodded affirmatively, “It doesn’t really matter, but I I still hope to learn more about it. Because it is rare to hear these sincere opinions, I am always willing to open my ears.”
“Even when shooting the image projected by the mirror, I still used the front and back techniques simply and rudely. This kind of stubbornness is definitely not something ordinary people can have, director, are you sure you are willing to open your ears?” Renly pierced Todd’s remarks mercilessly.
