"What? Paramecium? Hell!" Christopher was also angry at Renly's accusation. He spoke in a panic and blurted out his swear words, "You are the first guy to accuse me of paramecium! Damn it! Are you sure you are watching my movie? My script?"

Facing Christopher in front of him, Lan Li still looked slow. When quarreling, such posture and expression really made the other party more angry and he was already jumping. The other party still looked calm and composed, which was so annoying!

"If I hadn't watched your movies, nor read your scripts, and now I could understand all your core ideas clearly, then, this is not paramecium, what is it?" If there was a course that "annoying people will not deserve your life" in college, Renli's grade points should be very outstanding.

At this time, Lan Li was still sitting calmly on the chair, putting his right leg on his left knee, neatly dressed, mellow coffee, and a smile, and even a trace of sweat was not seen on his forehead.

But Christopher looked embarrassed and was excited. His big back hairstyle had already hanged down in disarray, and his sweat was soaked in the tennis shirt. His armpits and back were filled with large dark colors.

"You...you are just arguing!" Christopher was also a little bit exhausted. He was not a personality that was good at debate. It can be seen from the debut work of "following". What's more, there are not many actors in Hollywood who dare to make such a decision to yell at Christopher.

But Christopher still did not give up, "I'm not saying that I'm giving up philosophical thinking, but thinking that there is no need to deepen it! That's just too much burden!"

"It's too cumbersome, or can't be done?" Lan Li's rebuttal hit Christopher hard like an arrow. "Stanley Kubrick did not put a lot of lines in the '2001 Space Odyssey'. On the contrary, he deliberately streamlined the lines, but passed on philosophical thinking through the editing and connection of the pictures. It won't be too cumbersome, nor do you need to be too cumbersome, because the construction process of these pictures is the process of philosophical thinking!"

"How to build (how)?" Christopher replied straight. When he was extremely excited and impulsive, his thinking ability would also be affected.

"I don't know." Lan Li's answer was also straightforward, "I'm not a director, how do I know?"

"But you are not a screenwriter, why is the discussion so enthusiastic just now?" Christopher also showed his unyielding and relentless side.

Lanley shrugged, "Why can't we use the form of flashbacks of memories? For example, Murphy was running in front of me repeatedly, or Murphy was wearing red rain boots and stomping on water, or Murphy was seriously holding a pencil to draw. I mean, it was a small detail, but it became the most important concern."

"For Murphy, she could take another way. When she met a book, or saw a middle-aged man's action, or a familiar scene that she encountered at work, or a small movement Cooper made in the five-dimensional space was truly imprinted in her mind, and she couldn't help but think of her father again. And so on."

"Murphy is different from Cooper. Cooper is trapped in space. He can only flash back by memory. But Murphy is still on Earth, and her life can still be full of hints and associations. Even Cooper's actions in the five-dimensional space can cause a butterfly effect."

"Through these two different montage connections, the maintenance and bonding of family affection are presented. More importantly, emphasizing the dislocation of time Cooper's memory is always Murphy's childhood scene, but Murphy has grown up. In Murphy's eyes, what she sees is the image sent back by her father from space."

"What I mean is that without affecting the rhythm of the plot and without affecting the commercial attributes of the movie, after magnifying the power of time to the extreme, the performances of the two actors deepen the emotional maintenance. As for how to make up and think about it, what kind of spiritual refraction does those pictures reveal, this is the director's job."

Lan Li's speaking speed is not fast, and he always maintains a special rhythm, clear organization and clear layers.

This time, Christopher did not interrupt, but listened carefully, pondered the feasibility, and then further pondered the composition of the picture.

Objectively speaking, picture composition is not Christopher's strength, but strong imagination, spatial deconstruction and temporal linearity are the ones. In this regard, Canadian director Dennis Villeneuve has the potential to be in greatness.

In the "Scorched Earth City" in 2010, Dennis's camera temperament has been revealed. This year, he and Jack Gyllenhaal have collaborated on two works, "Anti-Enemy" and "Prisoner", to the next level; after that, the three works, "Border Killer", "Arrival" and "Blade Runner 2049", have even stepped one step by step, moving quickly towards the master's path.

However, Dennis's shortcomings are also very obvious: rhythm control. For the sake of the poetic and core explanation of the picture, he often has to sacrifice his narrative rhythm, which runs through all his works, and it has become a shackle for his more achievements in business. This is precisely Christopher's advantage.

As people say, it is already very difficult to just explore the limits at the commercial level or artistic level. Not every director can find the key to that creation; let alone find a balance between business and art, this is an eternal problem.

Lanli is an actor who is responsible for telling his understanding and opinions, but all this is limited to paper talk. In the actual combat stage, he is a complete rookie, and the director's work is definitely not as simple as he imagined. Now seeing Christopher fall into thinking, Lanli does not disturb him.

Christopher's expression was very wonderful, sometimes excited and sometimes sluggish, sometimes excited and sometimes confused, even if he was a solo show alone, he looked endlessly happy.

But in the end, Christopher still breathed a long sigh, "No, this doesn't work. Do you know how difficult it is to build a lens image? It's not just the depth of field and composition. Every character, every accessory, and every detail have meaning. This is a very, very huge project. If you just simply stuff those memories into it roughly, then the entire theme core may become cumbersome."

"When we were filming the Inception space, we had spent countless efforts to conceive the totem after everyone entered the dream and all the scenes in the dream. In fact, Jonathan and I originally wanted to set the dream scenes more meaningful, but this required taking into account psychology, philosophy, history, culture, etc., and it was not that easy."

"I remember after the movie came out, some critics said that the entire movie of Inception was based on a fantasy, but as a director, he still relied too much on text and could not extend the meaning of the shot. I scolded the critic in front of Emma. I was shooting a commercial movie, not Shakespeare."

"But...I understand now. What you mean is that through some screen content settings, there is no need to change the script or too much burden. I convey the director's thoughts through the camera. This is what it means, right?"

As he spoke, Christopher looked up at Renly and cast his inquiring eyes.

Lanli deliberately made a "sudden enlightenment" look, "Oh, are you talking to me? Because you just looked like you were talking to yourself..." Christopher rolled his eyes speechlessly, and Lanli didn't continue to joke, "Yes, that's what I mean. I know, this is a very difficult, very complex and very profound subject, but... Mr. Nolan."

"Chris."

"…Chris," Renli paused, and the guest nodded and changed his name.

“I always think that the reason you took over the Interstellar project is to be able to explore more in the movies and pursue more in the director’s arts level.

I always believe that the reason why movies are called director's art is not the script or the actors, and even the story must be second-hand. The picture and shot are the most important, such as scheduling, composition, editing, setting, etc., which are the most artistic director."

Facing Renley's words, Christopher did not criticize or affirm, but chuckled, "According to your opinion, Michael Bay is also an excellent director?"

"I personally still like the 'Brave Island' and 'Transformers'." Lan Li gave a positive reply.

Christopher thought about it seriously, but found that he had no way to refute it. People can complain that Michael Bay is still a three-pronged approach, but he cannot deny that he is still the first-class in the industry in terms of camera scheduling and blasting scenes.

So Christopher burst into laughter and agreed with his head. He finally understood why industry insiders always emphasized that "Lanli is an idea-worthy actor."

Lan Li's interpretation of performance, character, core, etc. is indeed unique; more importantly, Lan Li has his own profound analysis of the relationship between the character and the plot, which is irreplaceable for the integrity of the film work. In the process of cooperation between directors and actors, different sparks can often be created.

Christopher even believes that even if Renly and James Cameron emphasize visual effects and weaken the actor's collaboration, he can interpret his own traits.

Just like "Fast and Furious 5".

"If you were to play Cooper, would you have any special ideas?" Christopher mentioned this for the first time today.
