In some film and television dramas, the accidental performance of the actor without intentionally inserting willows has not destroyed the texture of the film, but has become a stroke of god, achieving an insurmountable classic in the history of film and television.
01 "Sweet Honey"
Maggie Cheung cries
In the movie "Sweet Honey", the leopard brother played by Zeng Zhiwei was accidentally shot, and the leopard brother's wife Li Qiao (Maggie Cheung) went to identify the body, and this laughter with tears in the shot made the audience in front of the screen break their hearts.
At first, I couldn't believe that my husband had passed away, the memories of seeing the Mickey Mouse tattoo on the back of the corpse instantly swelled up (first laughing), and the grief and tears after recognizing the facts, Maggie Cheung's performance can be described as a textbook performance.
This shot was originally Maggie Cheung laughing after seeing Mickey Mouse's tattoo, and then began to cry. Director Chen Kexin put this "laughing field" clip into it when editing, and this has become the most touching place in the film.
02"Graduate"
Dustin Hoffman & Catherine Rose's dazedness
At the end of the movie "Graduate", Hoffman successfully grabbed the kiss, the two ran on the bus, excitedly looking at each other, the movie was supposed to end in the smiles of the two, but the end became the smile of the two people gradually faded, showing a blank expression.
Originally, the film was to end in a smile, but the director did not shout to stop, the actors could only continue to act, but they did not know how to perform, so the face showed a confused expression, and this just reflected the theme of the film, it was retained.
03 "Infernal Affairs"
Liang Chaowei Huang Qiusheng dialogue
There is a scene in the movie "Infernal Affairs" in which Huang Zhicheng (Huang Qiusheng) meets Chen Yongren (Liang Chaowei), Huang Zhicheng asks Chen Yongren to escape from the rooftop, and Chen Yongren turns away.
Huang Zhicheng: Hello!
Chen Yongren looked back blankly: Huh?
Huang Zhicheng: Nothing
That sentence of "Hello" is Huang Qiusheng blurted out, not all of the script, and Liang Chaowei's dazed return is also a real reaction.
Ten minutes later, Huang Zhicheng fell from the roof and died in front of Chen Yongren's eyes, and the inexplicable dialogue also reflected the fate of the characters.
In addition, there is also an improvisational performance of the actor in this film, Huang Zhicheng's meeting with Chen Yongren on the rooftop, Chen Yongren's dialogue:
Obviously, three years later, three years later, three years later
Three years later and three years later
Almost ten years, boss
Two "three years later and three years later" were improvised by Liang Chaowei during his performance, but in just a dozen words, he exhausted the heartache of being an undercover agent for this decade.
04 92 Edition of "Happy Things at Home"
Zhang Guorong sorted out the towels
Chang Sao, played by Zhang Guorong in the film, is a bit feminine, and the cousin aunt played by Mao Shunjun is a pair of joyful enemies.
At that time, the script originally did not sort out the towel shot, and when the brother saw that the towel was crooked, he went to sort out the towel, hung it up and clapped his hands, improvising the performance.
This set of small actions "girly" attribute is very expressive, very close to the character of the film, so it has been retained.
05 Pulp Fiction
John Travolta & Uma Thurman danced to a twist
The classic episode of the "awkward dance without a word" is entirely an improvisational performance, and at first the actors and they dance according to the requirements of director Quentin Tarantino, but the effect is not satisfactory.
Later, the director let them improvise, so there was this relaxed and lazy, cool film and television classic dance clip that did not follow the stage.
Many later films have paid tribute to and imitated this segment.
06 "True Lies"
Jamie Lee Curtis danced
Jamie Lee Curtis danced and fell to the floor by accident, and Schwarzenegger immediately lowered his legs to help, only to have Curtis immediately climb up and slide into the camera.
This clip just shows Curtis's amateurism and nervousness, and adds humor to the film, as well as Schwarzenegger's action of getting up and sitting down quickly, which reflects his care for his wife and the quickness of his reaction when he almost reveals his identity, which is in line with the dual identity of his husband and agent, so director James Cameron decided to use this paragraph.
07 "Roman Holiday"
Gregory Pike and Audrey Hepburn
There is a scene in "Roman Holiday" where the hero and heroine come to the stone sculpture of the Mouth of Truth, and Pike puts his hand into the stone sculpture, and then pretends to be cut off by a mysterious thing, frightening Hepburn. When Pike pulled his hand out intact, Hepburn awoke from his panic and astonishment and threw himself into his arms.
This segment is an improvisation by Gregory Pike, and the director didn't know that Pike was planning to do it. At that time, no one knew what was behind the stone sculpture, Hepburn really thought that Pike's hand was broken inside, and quickly hugged him and pulled him out, so there was this scene.
08 "Journey to the West"
Shu Qi Huang Bo awkward dance
When filming this scene, Huang Bo thought that the director was not filming, boldly joking with Shu Qi, the two people giggled and danced awkwardly, and as a result, there was no shouting card at that time, and Xingye felt that this section was not reduced, but achieved a classic.
There is also a section in the film that is also an impromptu performance, and the empty boy's squirrel repeats like a repeating machine: "Why didn't you say it earlier!" ”
In fact, it was because the aunt forgot the words, and the star master did not shout to stop, she had to keep repeating.
Luo Zhixiang was also very witty, so he followed suit, first staring at her, suggesting that she shut up, and then coughing to hide his embarrassment, and this shot was also retained.
09 Titanic
Little Plum said the wrong line
Jack wants to paint Rose, and when Rose undresses, Little Plum sees Winslet undress and says the wrong line without calming down:
"Lie down on the bed, no, on the couch."
The original script was written as "Lie on the couch", maybe Xiao Lizi was too young and nervous at that time (it is difficult not to be moved in the face of such a beautiful Rose)
However, Xiao Lizi still realized that he said the wrong line and changed his mouth instantly.
But Cameron felt that this slip of the tongue was very real and in line with Jack's mentality at the time, so he did not reshoot it and kept it.
10 "The Night the Comet Came"
Full-length improvisation
This movie is not a shot, but the whole movie is improvised!
In the film, the dialogue between the actors is very daily, and even the dialogue is a bit chaotic, and the actors seem to be robbing each other of each other.
Because the actors do not know what the theme of the movie is, who the protagonist is, in addition to knowing who they are and what relationship they have with each other, they do not have any specific settings and lines of the characters, and they do not even know each other before filming.
The director would give the actor a note every night, which would only write the tasks of the night and some specific action goals, and the actor would improvise according to the content given by the director.
This work of impromptu performance of all members, with a high score of 8.5 on Douban, is a very good brain-burning movie.
Because there are many classics of improvisational performance achievements, which ones have you seen? Share it in the comments section.
