The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)
Chapter 1302: Down life
His name is Levine Davis.
He is a lonely and unknown folk singer. With the help of his friend Professor Grofiennes’ home, he spent a night curled up on the sand. Amidst boredom, his only interest is to open the black on the bookshelf of his friend. The vinyl record was placed on the phonograph and started to play; when I left, the big yellow cat in my friend's house sneaked out in the blink of an eye because the door was not closed in time.
Panicking, he tried to chase the big yellow cat; but just as the backpack and guitar were put down, the sound of the automatic locking of the door rang behind him, and his movements immediately stiffened in place, and he realized that, I don't have a key.
He picked up the big yellow cat that hadn't gone far. He tried to entrust the apartment manager who was in charge of managing the elevator, but the other party refused his request on the grounds that "I need to run the elevator"; then he used the public phone downstairs. He dialed the phone in Professor Grofiens’s office, but was unable to contact the other party. In desperation, he could only hug the big yellow cat and the guitar case, and hurriedly got on the subway among the busy crowd. Walking through the underground of New York, heading towards Greenwich Village.
A little bit of inattention, the big yellow cat slipped away from his hands again. He had to catch up quickly among the crowd in an embarrassed manner. The only luck was that the subway car was closed, and he finally caught this again. Active guy; he rushed to another friend’s house, but they were not at home. He could only ask the tenant on the first floor to allow him to borrow the fire escape and enter the friend’s house. Then he left the big yellow cat, and A saucer of milk was left.
This is a montage that tells of Levine's first official appearance.
The melodious and moving choices continue to whirl in the ears, which are perfectly combined with the lens, the story, and the atmosphere. It seems that even the lyrics and musical notes have become a part of the movie. Emily always feels that the singing is very familiar and full After a few shots, she remembered now--
Levine's vinyl record on the bookshelf of Professor Grofiens is called "Timlin and Davis". It is a duo folk performance group. On the cover photo, it is Levy. Enhe another strange face, it looks like it should be... Marcus Mamford from the Blessed Sons band in real life.
The camera gave a close-up reminder, but it flashed by and disappeared quickly.
Looking back now, Emily suddenly realized that the soundtrack and the story are two things that are linked to each other. The flowing shots and melody are intertwined with each other, depicting New York in the sixties, retro, chaotic, and hurried. But crowded, lonely and indifferent, slowly permeated the atmosphere of the whole movie.
So, what information was revealed in the first ten minutes of footage that she missed?
Emily straightened her waist quietly, and her intense interest began to roll over. This work should be worth chewing over and over again. The first time the movie is not over, she has already begun to look forward to the in-depth study of the second time; however, it is not the time yet. The most important thing is to concentrate and invest in the movie.
Levine visited his record company.
Once, Levine Davis and Mike Timlin were a duo performing group, they were not well-known; now, Levine Davis is a solo singer, he is still not well-known. The sales of the new album "Cincinnati" were unsatisfactory. He couldn't get the advance payment for the new album, but he couldn't get the royalties from the previous album. Winter was here, and he didn't even have a jacket.
The record company owner expressed his pity and sympathy, and kindly gifted his winter jacket to Levine, but Levine didn’t buy it at all. He generously expressed that it was a fake sympathy from the other party, but it was just a performance. That's all, this seriously hurt the goodwill of the record company owner.
The audience in the Lumiere Hall made low breathing sounds, seeming to disagree with Levine's approach.
Immediately, the ups and downs turned.
The record company boss yelled and told Levine to get out; Levienne froze a little, without any hesitation, got up obediently and prepared to go away, and at the same time was preparing to take away his jacket; the record company owner was immediately reluctant and seized He bought his coat, and finally gave Levine forty dollars in exchange.
The audience was stunned.
Emily chuckles and chuckles. This is the cold humor of the Coen brothers-or black-bellied humor, which can always inadvertently and unexpectedly create an effect that makes people laugh and laugh.
Levine returned to the homes of good friends Jim and Jane.
He was greeted by Jane, full of anger, and Troy Nelson, who was sitting relaxed on a rocking chair holding a big yellow cat.
Regarding Levine’s self-assertion of leaving the big yellow cat behind, Jane expressed strong anger, aggressively and constantly targeting Levine; she said that she and Jim had agreed that Troy would sleep in their sand tonight. Top-Troy is an active soldier and a folk singer. He will perform at the Gaslamp Cafe tonight, so Levine cannot stay unless Levine is willing to sleep in the sand.
Levine tried to explain the situation, but Jane never gave him a clear gap; Levine was concerned about Troy's performance, and there was a trace of indescribable confusion in his eyes.
Jane's impatience, Troy's free and easy, and Levine's waves/turbulence formed a sharp contrast. They smashed left and right in a narrow space, and the huge amount of information between the sheets was vented, and then Jane picked it up angrily. While venting his dissatisfaction toward Levine, he wrote a line of the note paper, and then handed the note paper to Levine.
"I am pregnant."
This was the message on the sticky note, and the small smile at the corner of Levine's mouth instantly solidified, and he blurted out, "What the hell?"
Jane looked at Levine quietly, raised her eyebrows lightly, her sharp and pointed eyes penetrated the screen and looked straight into the eyes of every audience.
Emily quietly widened her eyes, not because the plot was too **** and clichéd, but because the character image and the relationship between the characters were outlined bit by bit in the flowing narrative, she couldn't help but want Applause for the Coen brothers, that kind of natural fluidity, while answering questions while laying the groundwork foreshadowing, while also ensuring the progress of the story, making watching movies a pleasure.
The next scene is undoubtedly Emily's personal favorite part.
After the post-it note incident, Troy boarded the stage of the Gaslight Café for a performance. Levine and Jane, who were sitting down the stage, were separated from each other by a position. Then Jane’s husband Jim arrived at the café. Seated vacant seats.
Levine frowned and asked Jim about the performance?
Jim said "excellent", but Levine shook his head repeatedly, expressing his dissatisfaction and rejection, while their discussion attracted protests from other audiences. This means...the audience and Jim's position are consistent, and Levine is the only one who doesn't fit in the audience.
Jane left in a irritable mood, ready to have a drink at the bar.
Watching Jane's back, Levine lowered his voice and considered the sentence, hoping that Jim could borrow some money from himself, "I will pay it back soon, in conjunction with the last loan. A girl I know, gave a little The problem needs to be solved."
"Here again?" This was Jim's first reaction.
Levine quickly explained, "It's not the same." In Jim's surprised eyes, Levine quickly added, "Don't tell Jane."
"If I don't tell Jane, I can't get the money." Jim replied helplessly. Levine shook his head repeatedly, indicating that he would think of other ways.
"Fuck!" This was not from the voice in the movie, but from the voice of a girl behind Emily, who yelled in a low voice, without disturbing the mood of other viewers, but Emily couldn't help but chuckle. Get up, but that's not all.
Standing on the stage, Troy finished his performance, and then said, "There is a special audience in the audience today. Maybe he can come out and help me a little bit."
Levine seemed to recall the admiration and admiration that Troy had expressed to him in Jim and Jane's home in the afternoon. With a helpless and boring expression of disgust, he gently shook his head to express his rejection~lightnovelpub.net~ I didn't bring my guitar. "
"Ladies and gentlemen, let us welcome Jim and Jane!" Troy's voice came out.
All the audience in the Lumiere Hall laughed collectively, especially when they saw Levine’s paused expression, disappointment and loneliness slowly permeated through the eyebrows, which became more meaningful. But the real finishing touch comes from the next shot:
Levine joined the audience and applauded to express welcome, but his gaze quietly stared at that piece of the stage, there was a slight pause, maybe only a second, and then his eyes were lowered, covering the fleeting moment of his eyes. Light. He picked up the cigarette on the table.
A look and a movement, the emotions revealed by body language, filled the camera.
The brisk and melodious, moving and fresh melody flows slowly, which is different from Levine's sadness and loneliness, bitterness and sorrow, the graceful musical notes reveal a grace and warmth, a song of "500 miles", leading All the audience carefully savored the taste of homesickness.
Quietly, Levine sat quietly on the spot, letting the curling cigarette burn on his fingertips, his gaze fell on Jane motionlessly, staring at the petite figure in the spotlight, his eyes soothing. Slowly and gently, you can even catch a faint light flowing slowly in the depths of the eyes, full of tenderness and affection.
Unexpectedly, Emily's eyes became wet. She saw Levine converge her sharp edges and spikes bit by bit, showing the deepest softness in her heart.
He loves her.
She hummed softly, "Unclothed, penniless, Lord, I can't just go home like this."
