The disaster sci-fi film "Snowpiercer", directed by Feng Junhao and starring US Team Evans, must be familiar to everyone. This comic book movie released in 2013 caused a lot of discussion in that year. The background of the apocalypse and the ugliness of human nature , The naked display of class solidification, coupled with the rolling train, this film has all the conditions for a fire. Sure enough, he won a number of awards in that year, and the open ending made everyone look forward to the second part. The second part did not come, but the drama version of "Snowpiercer" was on the screen first. The structure and main line of the story are the same as the movie version. The first episode that has been released so far has a good look and feel. After all, Feng Junhao is also in charge of Supervisor role. Next, I will update the episodes of this manga, film and TV drama every week. When necessary, I will add some technical analysis and plot comments. Friends who like the story of the "perpetual motion" train in this frozen world are welcome. subscription. Let's start the first episode: First the weather changed.
Some friends may know that the original story of the Snowpiercer is a French comic, which won a certain comic festival award as early as 1986. The first episode of the drama version introduced the background of the Snowpiercer story by means of animation: First of all The climate has changed, and the war has warmed the world. At first, it may be the extinction of a species. In the end, it becomes closely related to everyone. Therefore, in order to reverse climate change, human beings launched some kind of biochemical missiles into the atmosphere, but instead froze the world. , Entrepreneur Wilford foresaw the doomsday, he built the ark train in advance, the rich hid in these 1001 carriages, just like the movie "2012", and the surviving poor, they wanted to survive, Reality shines in. After bloody struggles, the poor who successfully entered the train became the people at the back of the train. This is the Snowpiercer, and the story begins.
With brisk steps and a calm demeanor, our heroine appears,
Melanie, played by Jennifer Connelly, is a member of the train management department and an announcer on the train. Do you still remember the glimpse of the Oscar-winning actress in the epic "Once Upon a Time in America", it's a female character One of the most amazing appearances.
Now the wrinkles are creeping up the beauty's cheeks, but the elegant temperament still adds a lot to the show. The camera was handed back to the back compartment. It has been more than 6 and a half years since the train started, and the oppression has become more and more serious. The people at the back of the car are already furious, and the revolution is about to break out. When the "food" is distributed, the hero appears, by David Digg Stacey, the American actor and rapper. He was well received for his performance in the Broadway musical "Hamilton". As for the film and television industry, his works are not many. He can be regarded as the role of Evans of the US team, the leader of the tail man, but in preparation for a revolution At the meeting, the male protagonist advocated a conservative strategy and waited patiently for opportunities. He was questioned by the radicals, and the big guys felt that they would have no chance if they didn't rush at this time! The male protagonist had no choice but to shout out a slogan together! The back of the car is wholehearted! The decisive battle was imminent, and the thunder before the storm sounded from the rear of the car. The camera switches to the front carriage of the rich man. Unlike the movie, the extravagant life of the rich man in the front car is shown in advance, as if all this is not a secret worth hiding.
While talking and laughing, we got a message that there was violence in the third-class compartment. Back at the back of the car, the soldiers were ready to go. At this time, the arrival of the management team broke everyone's plan. I still prefer the movie version of the image of this character here. Sister Fur announced a notice to transfer the male protagonist to the front car. A struggle was useless, the male protagonist was taken away, and the battle did not start. After the male protagonist was dealt with, he was taken to a sunny carriage by a small minecart in the belly of the train. The gate chief came forward and directly served delicious food and drink. This was a request from the male protagonist, but how could the male protagonist be easily tempted? The so-called poverty cannot be moved! then! Well, understandable... The head of the brakes opened his mouth. It turned out that the male protagonist was a homicide detective in the old world. There was a murder in the third-class carriage. The deceased was named Sean. He worked in the Ministry of Agriculture. Proving that he did not betray the man in the back of the car, he didn't want to take the case, so he was beaten up. At this time, the female protagonist appeared, apologized for the rudeness of her colleagues, and lobbied the male protagonist again, and told that there was a similar murder case two years ago. It seems that they arrested the wrong person to serve their sentence in the "drawer". Before that, the doctor was taking care of another Asian girl. Considering the plot in the movie, this should be a foreshadowing, this girl will be the main figure.
Then the female lead gave the male lead an official offer. After solving the case, she appointed you as a train police detective and transferred to the third-class carriage. Then the brake chief took the male lead to meet the suspects. One of them was the male lead's wife in the old world. It was also what she told the authorities that his ex-husband was a police detective and wanted him to clear himself and his companions from suspicion. Lord, drag her to the train, so he doesn't want to suffer in the back of the car, so don't judge me, it's fine. The screen cuts back to the rear of the car, and the male protagonist is not seen to return for a long time. Other leaders at the rear of the car begin to suspect the male protagonist. At the same time, the male protagonist and the female protagonist start a new round of negotiations in a crop compartment.
The male protagonist insisted on fighting for the rights of the people in the back of the car before agreeing to investigate the case, while the female protagonist expressed the concept of balance and said that you need strawberries more than we need you. It happened that day was also the spiritual leader of the car, Don hector, ah no, old Ivan's 84th birthday, but in a peaceful music, Ivan committed suicide. The black screen changes, and the person in front of the car is harvesting delicious seafood ingredients in a carriage that resembles an aquarium. What a great irony.
The death of old Ivan became the fuse of the revolution. Compared with the grand general attack in the movie, the resistance war in the play is simpler and rougher. What people want is more well-equipped security, the failure of the revolution is a foregone conclusion, the male protagonist went to let his companions surrender in the drawer to serve his sentence, waiting for a more mature time, and promised to accept the investigation, let the female protagonist open the door, and both sides retreat. One step, the conflict ends. After a rough day, the hostess went back to her room after get off work and came to the engine cab after changing clothes? And the conversation with the man on the chair actually showed that this beautiful staff member of the management department was actually Wilford himself? ! She has the train. At the end of the first episode, the train continues to roll forward, so the plot mode of "Snowpiercer" + "CSI" has surfaced. While solving the case, how to restart the dual main line of the revolution step by step It is expected to develop in parallel like a double track. I feel that the first episode has already given too much to the bottom. The shock in the movie is lost every time a carriage is advanced. I am a little worried about the wonderfulness of the plot after that. But the drama version can't do it. If you want to know what will happen next, we will see you in the next episode. By the way, the political correctness of this wave of male protagonists turning into black people and bosses turning into women is really okay...
