Putting aside the plot, from the perspective of the actors' acting skills, Mr. Tao may barely pass, and Michelle is almost close to full marks. (Objective, fair and non-preconceived audiences should think so) I believe that President Tao could not wait to act in a TV series before completely escaping from the unique "traits" of the US team. As a result, he was suspected of being hanged in front of Downton's cousin.
In fact, I am an ordinary person who is not qualified to judge the acting skills of the actors at will, after all, it is also the result of labor. But after I watched the entire play, I felt that Mr. Tao’s trilogy of performances consisted of drooping eyes, frowned brows, and a fierce look in his eyes. This almost runs through the entire image of the father, and the confrontation with the son is almost... seldom shows the relationship between father and son, it is difficult to feel that they are a father and son, and it is good to say that they are brothers (haha may be related to Mr. Tao who is not a parent yet. ?) In fact, my son has tried his best to cooperate with Mr. Tao, but Mr. Tao always acts like a police note, and there are no subtle emotional changes in some key scenes.
I have to say, I feel that this time Chris Evans completely regarded the performance as an experience, acting as a fictitious hero for a long time. This time to play a real hero, the span is of course large, but Mr. Tao should really hone his acting skills. After all, at least acting is no longer about laughing like the US team when you are happy, frowning like the US team when you are down, and gritting your teeth like the US team when you are angry. The audience's attention is no longer limited to cool special effects. Especially this time I'm acting in a TV series, still the main character. The key is that Andy is such a complicated character, which is difficult to reflect in Mr. Tao. When I watch it, I always feel a little awkward and uncomfortable. I feel that Leonardo should be made. Just come and act.
On the other hand, Michelle, this time I really hope she won a Golden Globe Award. After looking at it, I really think she played well (I don’t know if it’s against Mr. Tao). She basically performs the role of mother perfectly, no matter it’s communication. , Quarrels, court sessions, crying, subtle expressions, three-dimensional images, and some subtle movements are in place. It may not be so demanding compared to Downton’s acting requirements, but we can clearly feel that her acting skills have crushed Mr. Tao. I have nominated for the Golden Globes so many times, I really can't figure out no more.
To sum up, Michelle is an actor of Downton. Downton is known as the most difficult TV show in the world. The requirements for acting are extremely high. Michelle is qualified for these dramas, and I really feel that she owes her a Golden Globe Award. But after all, Mr. Tao is acting in commercial dramas, and his acting skills are not very demanding. Now Scarlett Johansson’s acting skills are pretty good, so Mr. Tao should have learned a lot from Michel, and the US team is also working hard before breaking through. The image of solidification, even if the road to TV series is obstructed and long, but I still give him a big praise? In addition, I personally think that the role of Jacob is also a proper potential stock.
Since I watched the play after reading the novel first, many scenes in the play aroused ripples in my heart, and the emotional collision of the actors was performed vividly. I see many viewers have doubts or dissatisfaction with the ending, and some think that a sequel will be made. I personally write scripts in my spare time. My little sense of writing over the years is that deliberately leaving blank space is not to deceive the audience, not to ignore emotional needs, but to artisticize and deepen the 8-episode TV series, and improve it to one Higher and broader. What do you mean? It’s not the author’s ultimate goal to study Jacob’s murder. The truth is that he used this event as a carrier, just like a foreign gene used a plasmid as a carrier to implant different people. Under understanding and reflection. The whole tragedy reflects complex and unsolvable issues such as family issues, campus issues, social issues, and even morals and ethics. Back to the end, Michel stepped on the accelerator, not absolutely, as some friends said, it was cowardice, fragility, and escape. If you have read the novel, you can understand and feel Michelle's delicacy more deeply. Her suicidal ending may not be her own, but the author used her to end the story. This is very wise, very clever, and it seems unexpected and reasonable to have Michelle as a mother do it all. I personally speculate that there should not be a sequel, otherwise it will lose its original meaning. Unless you want to dig deeper, but this seems pale and weak.
So I personally think that what the author wants to convey is not a simple suspenseful reasoning thought about murder, not to study whether Jacob murdered, but why he became a suspect, why the US team and Michelle defended him. I'm not a parent yet, and I can't really appreciate that feeling from the text or TV series, but I actually feel that a family that belongs to you is really worth your life to defend, explore, and love. Don't kidnap morality with love, don't destroy trust with suspicion, don't replace reason with your own wrong sensibility. The so-called parent-child play is mutual understanding and mutual reconciliation. The US team and Michelle used to work hard to defend their son, and our audience also asked to work harder to defend their faith, defend their dreams, and defend their love.
