He could be so handsome when he was not Mr. Bean

The reason why I want to watch the McGray series of dramas is because I myself have a preference for such stories, like British dramas, and British accents. But more importantly because of Rowan Atkinson, because he is no longer acting in comedy, no longer Mr. Bean. Even more because I am looking forward to comedians. When I was in school, the TV series of Mr. Bean's comedies were often played in a loop, one after another, watching them while sitting in front of the TV, which made people laugh from time to time, and I was just hilarious at the time. So this image is so deep in my heart that people like me with such a strong curiosity have not wanted to understand what the actor's desire is for a long time. This is completely inconsistent with my style. It was not until later that there was news on TV that he was suffering from depression. After I watched it carefully, I realized that this actor was named Rowan Atkinson, an Englishman. Are comedians prone to depression? Do you consume your own happiness while giving others happiness? Or is everything going to be the opposite, and if you create too much happiness, you become no longer happy? So I searched it and found that he was still a schoolmaster, majoring in mechanical and electrical engineering at Oxford University, and also obtained a master's degree in mechanical and electrical engineering. A typical man in science and engineering, a science and engineering subject that gave me a headache. Real life is completely different from that in the play, and there is such a big difference. Fortunately, he defeated depression. But he is still an actor, and a real actor. When I watched the McGregor series, I had a deep understanding of this. I always think that comedians are powerful acting. But while they are performing comedies and creating all kinds of exaggerated body language and expressions, people are laughing and laughing, but they also make people almost ignore that comedy also requires acting skills. People even have a deep misunderstanding of comedy. They think that being funny can't be easier. Everyone can laugh, and anyone can act in comedy. But people are wrong. Comedy is the one that needs performance skills the most. In the drama "Da Song Ti Xing Guan", Yishui's comedians have various acting skills. Mr. Guo Da’s performance in "The Great Song Mentor" impressed me deeply. He portrayed a calm and haunting villain, Diao Guangdou, so much that I was about to crush my back teeth. Now, who would even think about his sketch that sells rice? So never underestimate comedians, they are all seemingly calm sweeping monks, hidden deep enough. Rowan Atkinson's performance in "McGray" was so vivid, it even made my eyes shine. Seeing him wearing a top hat with a pipe in his head and being silent, he will never feel that he is Mr. Bean anymore. At that moment, he was the unangered detective, looking at him. Inspector McGray couldn't laugh anymore. So even if someone complains that the plot of this series is too weak, the villain is too weak, what if the story is bad, anyway, I can’t tell with my IQ. In my eyes, what if there is no ups and downs of the plot, no gorgeous scenes, so old-fashioned and old-fashioned, this is the British drama I love, quiet and slow, a drama can be performed unhurriedly For a few years, and I just like this kind of peaceful and soothing narrative, natural and quiet performance, and the sense of security that the old and simple setting brings me. And I came to watch Rowan Atkinson perform, there is nothing wrong with it. Because he has such a strong ability to portray characters, I can sometimes ignore the plot and simply watch his performance. He interprets McGray’s maturity and stability, justice, kindness, and compassion in such an appropriate and perfect way, his deep sympathy for the victim, shelter for the innocent, his calmness when solving the case, and his calm dealings with the suspect. This in itself is just being handsome, so I have to think that he is really handsome. Again, never underestimate the comedian, he is bringing us joy with his heart, not the kind of funny that we see on the surface.

Maigret's Dead Man quotes

  • [to the man who murdered Albert Rochain and who has just described him as "a little man - a nobody"]

    Chief Inspector Jules Maigret: I want you to know that his name was Albert Rochain and that he had a wife and that they were trying to start a family. And for all his little bets and his little winnings, his life was more successful than yours, because *he* didn't end up like an animal in a cage, despised by everyone, with nothing to look forward to - except his execution.
