Our generation grew up watching Hong Kong-made films all the way. The 1990s was an era of star making. We watched and witnessed many artists from unknown to later fame and fortune. Movies have made artists, such as Jackie Chan, Fa Ge, Andy, etc. Artists have also made movies, such as Xing Ye. Now that era has long since disappeared, but the artists created in that era are still dispelled and consumed by us.
Besides Jing Tian, her first play in the impression should be "Warring States". In the play, she cooperated with Sun Honglei, and even the first beauty in Korea made her a foil. Ordinarily, if a woman with a beautiful appearance has a little more talent, if she has a little more understanding, if she works a little bit more, then she has a relatively good chance of standing out in this industry, but she does not have the middle two, so this After a few years, she may have worked hard, but she still presents us with a vase. In the play, she plays the daughter of Team Zhong, "Miao Miao". There were two crying scenes, and it gave me the feeling that there was always a gap between her and the character she played. She couldn't put herself into the role, and it was precisely because of the lack of that sense of substitution, so although she was crying, the crying seemed dry, and the crying lacking emotional intervention was so pale.
Life is like a play, and the best actor is to fully substitute herself into the story structure and roles, such as Zhao Wei's Little Swallow in Huanzhugege, such as the proprietress Jin Xiangyu played by Maggie Cheung in Longmen Inn. There was a kind of empathy between them, and at that moment she was no longer playing that role, she was playing herself.
The whole drama revolves around Wu Jiang (played by Liu Ye) who carefully planned the death of his sister Xiaowei 5 years ago. All the witnesses who were involved in the incident were harassed to restore the real cause of his sister's death and take revenge for her. Let's talk about Liu Ye, Liu Ye's "Tough Guys" Part 1 and 2, including this "Police Story 2013", all appeared in the attitude of a quasi-tough guy, but it was only a gesture. The external posture has no inner confidence, just like a ball, it looks round and hard, but when you pinch it, it turns out to be soft. It gives people the feeling of being out of breath, and the audience will inevitably be discouraged when they look at it. In a few shots, I even saw a flash of "timidity" in his eyes. In the opponent's play, the stronger side wins firstly with aura, and no matter how tough the attitude is, it can't overwhelm the opponent. Just as the audience, when you see all this in your eyes, the feeling of powerlessness is very impressive. Crazy. It is impossible to decipher whether his "timidity" is a natural expression of lack of confidence in the role he plays, or the cowardice caused by the strong opponents in and out of the play. However, the play is like life, and Act and cherish!
Xiaowei's death is the result of many factors. Of course, the most direct reason is that she was betrayed and abandoned by the bartender (her lover) while she was pregnant. The reason why the bartender abandoned her was because of Wu Jiang (Xiaowei's lover). Brother) disagreed with him being with Xiaowei and threatened to go back to China to kill him, a life-saving move he had no choice but to do. In this way, both men are selfish. The bartender's selfishness lies in the fact that he regards his own life as more important than fighting Wujiang with Xiaowei. Another possibility of winning, so he ignores it! Wu Jiang's selfishness lies in interfering with his sister's mate choice as an elder brother! Of course, Xiaowei is even more cowardly. I was thinking, if Xiaowei did not choose to die, there might be another ending, an unexpected ending, but death brought an end to all possibilities.
What needs to be mentioned is the overthrow and shirk of the witnesses when they recalled the death of Xiaowei five years ago. In psychology, there is a so-called memory reconstruction, that is, the subject will unconsciously reprocess the memory of the events that happened at that time, and will selectively forget or downplay the information that will make the subject unforgettable and cause deep inner trauma. Information that is brisk and beneficial to you. This is also the role of hypnosis in current psychotherapy. Only in a state of deep hypnosis can psychologists guide patients to reawaken those deep wounds in their hearts. Every eyewitness in the play is refuting the former's statement, and every eyewitness's statement minimizes his responsibility. In addition to the instinctive self-protection action made in the face of Wujiang's threat, there may also be an element of memory reconstruction!
Another thing that needs to be mentioned is mutual evasion. Many people are familiar with the prisoner’s dilemma. When accomplices in the same case testify to law enforcement agencies, the most beneficial and win-win situation is to deny or deny that they did something, but in the Prisoners are under the circumstances, and each accomplice is worried that the other accomplice will betray him and damage his own interests. Under the inducement of the law enforcement agency to reduce the sentence or perform meritorious service, each person confesses to the other side, but it becomes the worst result. It can be seen that, as a psychological mechanism for self-protection, the psychology of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages may not always lead to good results when applied to group events, but can often be easily used by others. It's just that the mutual evasion of witnesses here has little effect on Wu Jiang. The so-called truth he wants is just an explanation for himself, that's all!
In the whole play, there are a few scenes that are simply a waste of time, and of course it is impossible for the director to add them in order to meet the standard broadcast time. The scene where Piru jumped off the building selling skewers at the beginning was completely unnecessary, it was just to explain the injury on the Zhong team's face, and adding such a scene was superfluous! In addition, the emotional ups and downs of the characters cannot be explained clearly. Taking Wu Jiang as an example, he learned the real cause of his sister's death until he chose to commit suicide. In addition, the storytelling is complete, so when you have nothing to relieve your boredom, you might as well watch it!
