Chapter 191 My Hope, I Love You So Much

The movie is only halfway through, but Roger Ebert is already convinced that this time Sarah's performance has even surpassed her previous role as Katharine Hepburn in "The Aviator", not because of the large number of roles, but because of Sarah A breakthrough in the performance itself - every actor's acting skills have their own characteristics, and Sarah's performance is more introverted like herself, she is good at handling delicate emotional scenes, but in her roles since her debut, There are few hysterical and crazy scenes. Even in "Requiem for a Dream", the drug-addicted lady, the cadenza is also dealing with struggling inner scenes. This is Sarah's strength and her weakness.

She is like a quiet lake, which can reflect all kinds of human conditions in the calm, but she can't push the turbulent waves of the big wave, at least the madness of the tsunami crossing is something Sarah has never tried in the past few years, so The colleagues in the circle can more or less guess that this part is Sarah's weakness, whether she can accept it or not...

It is precisely because of this that Sarah in "Hope" surprised everyone. The murder scene completely shocked many film critics. How could Sarah "failure" like this?It seems that the little girl's ambition to take over the role of "Hope" is indeed not small, to break through her acting skills, broaden her range of dramas, and hit awards... It is estimated that after tonight, there should be a large number of film reviews and public relations drafts sent out!

While the film critics were amazed and sighed in their hearts, they also looked forward to how the story would develop next. The first female serial killer in the United States could not kill only one person. When will the real contradiction and climax of the story break out?How will Sarah deal with the next serial killings?The movie is called "Hope", so now the protagonist who is flying away with his beloved girl, has his wish come true?

With the money of the murdered prostitute in hand, and with her beloved girl in her arms, Irene on the big screen seemed to be reborn, as happy as if she owned the whole world.She began to look forward to more, that she could live a different life again, her body language was open and closed, and even her flying hair showed her happy mood at the moment: "I'm going to find a job, I'm going to dress clean, I'm going to have a decent job...a house, a car...we'll all have these things, sounds, isn't it nice?"

At least, under Sarah's interpretation, movie viewers can't help but start to look forward to-maybe?If they are lucky enough to escape the police, if Irene repents from being a prostitute.Sounds like a great new development to look forward to, and there's always hope in life, isn't it?

The woman who has always been dressed in sloppy and loose clothes finally changed her face and put on a neat suit. The color tone of the picture has become brighter, and the woman sitting in the bright office can't help but make people's eyes shine.A person's mental outlook can really affect her beauty and ugliness. For example, now, looking at the shining eyes on the big screen, the originally ugly and vicissitudes of life seem to be more pleasing to the eye, and even remind people of "vigorous", "Hope" and other words, because at this time she looks like a college student who has just walked out of campus, full of longing for this society, eager to try, and she even behaved a little cute during the interview process, not because she looks cute, but She is so cute, innocent and cute—she has nothing, no looks, no education, no work experience, and she even has unbearable vulgarity in her speech and behavior, but she thinks that as long as she works hard enough and keeps a smiling face, the other party can hire her? !

As a result, it is inevitable to run into walls one after another. Being despised, rejected, and driven out impatiently, the happy time is so short, and the beautiful hopes are shattered by repeated failures. When she returned to her residence, she still had to face her beloved. The girl complained hungry: "Why don't you prostitute? Why don't you continue to prostitute?" Even though she was rejected by recruiters countless times, she still wanted to persevere, but when faced with the girl's questioning, Her strength was finally defeated.

Why?because……

The question made Irene speechless. The terrible night she had been avoiding, she could no longer escape under the aggressive reprimand of the girl.The moment she told the truth, she couldn't hide the fear in her eyes. It turned out that even after so long, she still couldn't get rid of the fear of that night, and she... killed someone!

Like the graph, upbeat sentiment hit bottom again.While the movie viewers sighed, they were relieved that they should have thought of it long ago. How could it be so easy to reinvent themselves and say goodbye to the past?What's more, this woman has a life on her back!However, looking at the woman who was at a loss in the quagmire of the murder case on the big screen, the viewers felt a little sympathetic. After all, what she killed was a sadist who deserved what she deserved. She was also the victim of that night, right?Can excessive self-defense be punished lightly?

Maybe, but when she picks up the gun again, there will be no turning back on this road.

The woman stood next to the road again. This was a one-man show. The moviegoers followed her along the side of the road, stepped forward a few times but hesitated and retracted their steps. They had made countless gestures of hitchhiking at this moment. But she couldn't reach out no matter what—she didn't want to, she didn't want to go to prostitution again, let alone kill again, but for money, so that the girl she loved no longer showed disappointment, she tried to find a job but found that She is useless, she actually has nothing else but to sleep with men.Cars sped past one after another, and the lights shone on her face flickering, just like her inner struggle at the moment.

Amidst the sighs of countless people in the screening hall, she finally got into a man's car, and her whole body was tense when she was sitting in the co-pilot, because she had already rejected prostitution from the bottom of her heart. So she has done it countless times, but now she acts as if she has just entered the industry, acting clumsy and clumsy.

If there is a fast-forward button in the theater, I believe that many moviegoers would like to press the fast-forward button hard, because they already have a bad feeling-the man who is about to enjoy a perfect night has erratic eyes and is obviously fighting between heaven and man woman.The gunshots sounded as expected, and the "bang bang bang" in the silent night killed not only another client, but also Irene's bottom line. She changed, completely changed, from The first passive killing, and the second active shooting, even after killing that person, he can still watch the corpse quietly light a cigarette.Even after the third and fourth time, she began to take killing for granted.

Making money by prostitution?Or kill the object of prostitution?She actively chose the latter.People look down on prostitutes, but as a prostitute, she hates prostitutes even more. These men may have girlfriends, wives and children, but they still can't help but want to have sex on the road. What is there to sympathize with such a man?So Irene felt less and less guilty, her eyes became more and more indifferent, and her shooting movements became more and more sophisticated. She just killed someone one second, and she can hug the girl she loves the next second. At the bar, triumphantly throwing out those banknotes from the pockets of the dead!

But it’s also a smile, but at this time Irene’s happiness is like a heat shield, unable to infect the viewers in front of the big screen.Ordinary moviegoers will only interpret it as the influence of the movie's plot, because moviegoers subjectively cannot identify with a murderer who kills actively.But keen film critics can capture the nuances of Sarah's performance. There are many kinds of happiness and happiness, and smiles can vary widely. It is an actor's ability to integrate this subtle change into the performance, and Sarah The happiness she performed at this time has long been different from the first time, and there is always a hint of uneasiness hidden in her smile, because how could there be no change before and after the murder?And this change depends on acting to visualize it!

Sarah's performance is very vivid. As Irene plays the role of Irene, she regards life more and more as nothing, and even enjoys posing in front of the mirror. When she poses for shooting, the viewers feel more and more heartbroken when they see her smile. The more blocked it was, it was as if a big rock was weighing heavily on it, and such suppressed emotions finally reached their peak when she killed a kind and innocent old man who even tried to persuade her to change her ways.

At that moment, Irene's hand holding the gun was trembling. When she kills, she always kills disgusting prostitutes, but this time the gun is aimed at an innocent old man!Her conscience was whipped, but the old man happened to see her gun, making everything irreparable, and he had to kill her to silence her!

"Oh, God, my wife, and my daughter...she just got pregnant, and I haven't waited to see the baby born..." the old man begged tremblingly.

His words made Irene feel more and more guilty. She didn't even have the courage to look directly at the old man's face, but even if the old man was asked to kneel on the ground with his back to her, she still couldn't pull the trigger. She is a human being, and she also has a conscience and a bottom line Yes, she didn't even have the courage to listen to the old man's prayer. At this moment, she almost broke down and shouted nervously, "Shut up! I tell you to shut up!"

The hand holding the gun trembled more and more. If you didn't look at the postures of the two people, you might even think that the person who was about to be shot was Irene, because the expression on her face was so painful that it was even worse than the old man kneeling on the ground. And panic.Amid the old man's prayers, she shook her head and cried "I'm sorry" while still pulling the trigger. The old man's body fell in response, and then Irene who knelt down and dropped the gun.

Depressed emotions spread throughout the auditorium, and broke out amidst the particularly ear-splitting gunshots in the silent night.It's over, it's really over!After killing the innocent old man, Irene became a criminal through and through, unable to redeem the criminal that even she despised.Her eyes were dim, like burnt ashes. When she saw the wanted portrait in the newspaper, she even let out a long sigh of relief, as if to say: "Finally...finally..."

"I don't know, I don't know if I can forgive myself..." The heartstrings that have been tense for a long time, the guilt of killing an innocent old man just now, the reluctance to send the beloved girl away, the panic about the future trial, everything All came to her mind, she curled up in the corner, trying to smoke a cigarette to relieve her anxiety and panic, but the hand holding the match trembled uncontrollably, and she couldn't even light a cigarette.She was crying, like a trapped animal that had been driven to a dead end and reached its end, she was also repenting, she was also afraid, and she would be at a loss.

"I wish we had a chance, I mean, I hope, you can come back here in the future... Let's go further and start over..." She hugged the girl at the station, and she knew it might be the two of them For the last hug, she murmured, that hope was so elusive, even she herself knew that the possibility of realizing it was very slim, "I really hope, I really hope, there is still a chance..."

She was drunk, and when she sent the girl away, she became a muddy mess, and when she hoped to meet again with the girl, she sat in the courtroom in handcuffs, and her beloved girl sat in the witness seat and testified against her... …

This is probably the cruelest thing in the world, right?

When you're stuck in a deep pit and still struggling to climb up to survive, your one, true, and loved one shovels the suffocating dirt down and covers your face... when you hang On the cliff, holding a branch in your hand and crumbling, the person you regard as the most precious in the world, who has always been cared for and loved in your hand, personally broke the only gap that carried your hope and life, and fell to the bottom of the valley, forever... …

And the most stupid love in the world is probably just like Irene, even if she is abandoned by her lover, she still continues to love without hesitation, continue to love as much as she can, right?

The picture is blurred as if it is a memory, and the scene of the courtroom and the memory appear alternately.Irene looked at the witness stand, but remembered the phone call not long ago...

"Where's the money I gave you? Where's the money?" When Irene asked the girl this question, viewers could see that there was still a glimmer of hope in the eyes of the woman on the big screen. She had already guessed it, but She still hopes that her lover will not abandon her.

However, her girl asked her in a blank tone on the phone: "What money? What are you talking about? I can't understand! Lin, what did you do? Those policemen always come to me, I'm so scared ..."

The last glimmer of hope in her eyes was completely extinguished, and Irene, who was dressed in a prison uniform, squeezed the receiver and closed her eyes. Her girl was obviously pretending to be stupid, but she still felt distressed when she heard her lover cry.At this moment, she knew that what she lost was not only her freedom, but also her love, the girl she cherished the most, her only one!

The picture returned to the court again, the girl in the witness stand stretched out her hand, pointing her finger at Irene, impartial...

And Irene still nodded her head slightly, trying to bend her mouth upwards, she wanted to show the girl a last smile, she greedily looked at the girl she loved, watched her pointing her finger straight at her, watched her finally leave Court - "I love you and I don't want to lose you...yes I did all that...I love you with my heart and all my soul so I will never let you suffer and make you afraid of."

"Honey, yes, I did it, I did it, I did it, I did it alone...I'll admit it to the police, you don't know..."

Listening to the choked and nostalgic final confession, the picture shows Irene walking down a long corridor that seems to have no end under the guard of two prison guards. The energy seems to have light, like the last touch of whiteness when death comes, And like the only hope in the dark.But where is the real hope? How can a person who has been sentenced to death have such a thing as hope?In the voiceover, with obvious disdain and sneer, it sounded when Irene stepped into the end of the white light: "People always tell me that this life is full of hope...hope? Heh...that kind of thing..."

The story of the famous first female serial killer in the United States, the name is so appalling, and the crimes committed are so heinous, but behind the gunshots, there is such a woman standing.You can't say she's innocent, but you can't completely hate her either. Everyone is a fish struggling in life. Some people may be lucky to have hope, and some people may not be lucky enough to meet in this life... I hope this thing ...

The name of the movie is "Hope", but the protagonist completely gave up hope in the end with a sneer, because there is only one story about despair from beginning to end.

"I knew it would be a very depressing movie. Sarah is so disgusting. It's not enough to make a "Boys Don't Cry"? It made me feel so uncomfortable again." Many movie fans sitting in the screening hall whispered Whispering, it seems that they are dissatisfied with Sarah, but they are more of a sigh for the prototype character Irene. If it is not for Sarah's movie, they will never pay attention to Irene.If it weren't for Sarah's movie, they would never sympathize with such a murderer. Even after reading the newspaper, they still only think that Irene deserves the death penalty for this murder. However, movies have such magical powers, no, It is Sarah's performance that gives the movie such magic. She brings Irene to life, and she also brings to life both her love and despair.

"I heard that you visited Irene in person in prison before filming this movie?" Roger Ebert seemed to be still immersed in the story of the killer, with a dazed expression on his face. He wondered whether Sarah In the movie, Irene's character was deliberately beautified, "You know, the character you played is really hard to hate, at least I feel a little bit of pity in my heart at the moment... But, after all, art Different from life, right?"

"But art comes from life." Sarah smiled and gave such a short answer. 80.00% or even [-]% of the stories in the movie are completely real people, which she can guarantee.And did she beautify Irene on purpose?Probably a little bit!For the film, for art, and for Irene, she chose to tell the story to everyone in this way.She fulfilled her promise to Erin, "Hope" will be a good movie, more people will see it, and Erin and her story will be known by many, many, many people.

As for Sarah's original intention of making this movie, a late graduation answer sheet handed over to Katharine Hepburn, I wonder if the old man in heaven is satisfied?Listening to the congratulations and admiration of many film critics around her, Sarah slightly curled her lips. She shouldn't have disappointed Catherine, right?Remember how Catherine commented after watching "Boys Don't Cry"?The old man just gave Sarah a meaningful smile...

"What? You haven't received the draft from Sarah's public relations team either? Is that guy Dawn on strike? It stands to reason that all public relations methods should have been rolled out long before the film's premiere!" A well-known entertainment website asked. The editor-in-chief is communicating with colleagues from another company.

"Isn't the movie "Hope" going to win awards this year?" A staff member of the New York Film Critics Association murmured in a low voice.

"Or is it because of the public relations troubles of "Gangs of New York" that Sarah's team is so timid? This is too nonsense. Sarah's performance is definitely eligible for the award. If she misses the award because of this, Sarah will still Don't strangle Dawn to death?" A public relations person in the circle muttered gloatingly.

"But why did I hear that...ahem...it's Sarah's decision not to publicize?" This time, it was a colleague who had some personal friendship with Dawn.

"How is it possible? No public relations? Is that girl crazy?" Which star in Hollywood would take the initiative not to use public relations?

"It seems to be... an agreement between Sarah and Ms. Katharine Hepburn!" Although it was just a rumor.

"Ms. Katharine Hepburn? Then...it's really possible..." Who doesn't know that Katharine Hepburn is famous for doing her own way and being indifferent to fame and fortune!

"Hey, it's a pity that it's a good movie. For a promise with a dead person, I missed a great chance to win an award. Is it worth it?" Obviously not worth it!

However, without public relations, would those film critics give her low marks on purpose?Is it really impossible to win an award without PR?
