Once Upon a Time In Hollywood

Chapter 26 begins (recommendation ticket requested)

Coming to New Year's Day again, Roland, who had washed up, looked at himself in the mirror, and unceremoniously picked up the hair dryer.

Since today is his last audition, he should naturally dress up a bit more maturely.

When he appeared handsomely in front of James with his shiny back hair and luminous leather shoes, the little guy who was still troubled turned into a bumpkin who had never seen luminous cooking, and his eyes were almost covered by him. stared out.

"Roland, did you have an appointment today?" James looked strange, and secretly poked Roland with his elbow.

"Who is it? Why don't I know!"

For six hundred days in a row, the waking up breath that lingered in her body every day disappeared, replaced by winking curiosity.

America does not have the concept of puppy love at all, because in their educational textbooks for elementary and middle school students, "dating" (dating) and "falling love" (falling love) are two different concepts: "dating" is the beginning of the relationship between men and women , learning to get along with the opposite sex, going out one-on-one is called dating, and going out with a whole group is also called dating. Dating may involve intimate behavior, but dating does not have a marriage commitment. It can only be called when the main purpose is marriage. For "love".

Feeling the knowing gaze cast by James, Roland left the time loop. Roland was in a good mood and decided to tease him.

"Don't you know?" Roland feigned surprise, "Of course it's her!"

"Her?" James beeped in bewilderment, and his double chin trembled following his tone, "Who is she?"

"She is her! Thanks to the fact that we are still brothers, you don't even know about this?"

Looking at Roland, who was the villain who first complained, James felt that a mouthful of old phlegm was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't cough it out or swallow it; and just as he was racking his brains and thinking hard, trying to retrieve the list of the opposite **** he knew, and thus When I got a satisfactory answer, I suddenly stopped and came...

Roland ignored James, who had fallen into the search black hole, and ran directly to the entrance of the yard, and took the newspaper.

And when his brother handed the newspaper to David six hundred and one times, the husband and wife who were preparing for the meal were already stunned. Sister Sen also looked at him a few more times.

Seeing Roland in formal attire, the four of them had doubts in their hearts. As they asked questions, James, who learned the truth, immediately rolled his eyes, first slammed Roland on the shoulder, and then opened the door. After talking about himself, he dissed Roland crazily, saying that he had cheated his feelings.

At James’ ‘You lied to me about going on a date! ’, ‘Didn’t you tell me last month that you don’t want to act? ’, ‘I didn’t expect you to prepare secretly! ’ After a series of sloppy words, the Olsen couple were successfully led astray by their son, but they simply ignored it. They didn’t seem to have disclosed to the children the specific audition time of Roland.

"Since you are ready, shall we go directly there later?"

Facing David's probing inquiry, Roland naturally would not refuse.

Maybe it was because he was happy, but it was more like he wanted to perform well during the audition. Roland ate surprisingly little this morning, and a bowl of muesli could satisfy his hunger. As for the green milkshake and scrambled eggs?

He stuffed it all into James' chattering mouth...

When he walked steadily into the audition hall with his number plate, his adult attire immediately attracted the attention of eight eyes; the two casting directors looked at Roland in surprise, while relying on Chris Columbus, who was on the seat, adjusted his sitting posture, and swept Roland back and forth with obscure eyes.

"Your name is Roland Allen?"

"Please briefly introduce yourself."

Similar to the more than one hundred audition experiences before, when Roland did not declare his family background, all the questions were raised by the two casting directors. Chris Columbus and John Hughes would only sit Listen quietly.

However, what was different from before was that when the casting director asked what Roland's hobbies and specialties were, he directly asked the other party for a guitar, "I have learned the guitar for more than a year, so this should be considered my specialty." ?”

"Since I learned guitar, I have only practiced two songs, one is "Come and get your love" by the Red Bones, because it is my wake-up alarm, and the other is "Changes" by David Bowie, because I Love his lyrics; 'Come and get your love' doesn't fit here, so I'll give you guys 'Changes' instead."

With the appearance of the name David Bowie, John Hughes, who was browsing his resume with his chin resting on one hand and eyes drooping, suddenly raised his head, and when Roland plucked the strings, presenting the familiar music In front of him, this man, who had experienced too many beatings from society, already clasped his hands, and his chin rested on the back of his hands naturally.

Why does John Hughes like the song "Changes"?

Even when he was in a loop, Roland never asked Director Zemeckis about this issue.

Not only that, after learning that the song was John Hughes' favorite, Roland never came to Fox again, talking nonsense, full of benevolence and morality, to test the other party's thoughts.

because-

no need.

The lyrics of "Changes" have already written everything.

"timemaychangeme (time may change me

"butican′ttracetime (but I can't trace it

When Roland sang these two lyrics in a child's voice, John Hughes, who was sitting behind the audition table, frowned.

In the pupils under the lens, there is a light of nostalgia.

These two lyrics are actually a true portrayal of John Hughes.

Time, like running water, can make him successful, and it can also wash him down extremely slickly.

Back then, John Hughes entered Hollywood with a dream, but the capital game was not so fun.

While time gave him fame and fortune, it also smoothed his edges and corners, making him gradually forget his original intention.

He didn't want to change, but he had to.

At the end of the song, Roland didn't care if the other four had any questions to ask. Holding the guitar, he stared straight at John Hughes, his red eyes showed sadness, and the big teardrops flowed down the road. The corners of the eyes slid down one after another.

"After my parents passed away, this song helped me get over my grief."

"At that time, I didn't know how to face others. I just wanted to stay at home quietly, hoping that everything around me was a false dream. I felt that my parents hadn't passed away, and they would come back after all."

"but…"

"Uncle David and Aunt Canetti, who adopted me, didn't think so."

“They want me to be happy.”

“They want me to accept this and make a difference.”

"Can-"

"I didn't understand their thoughts at the time. I didn't understand why they insisted on forcing me to do something I didn't want to face until Uncle David played this song for me."

“When I finished listening to this song, I found that I fell in love with it completely.”

"Because I understand, Uncle David understands me."

"He didn't want to tamper with my world simply and rudely. He asked me to make changes to make my life better."

Roland, start acting...
