Except for minor changes and more localized joke topic settings, the new version basically follows the framework of the previous work, but the director has made considerable changes in the determination of the comedy style. Such changes are first reflected in the funeral issues and the attitude towards the deceased, which is clearly visible after the film throws out the first baggage. Originally, the funeral was enough to get a glimpse of Lao Ying Lao Mei's innocence. The biggest difference between the funeral and other gatherings may be that the former needs to wear a black suit, while the latter has no concerns in this regard. After learning about the funeral spoiler planned by the two "black brothers" of the Waynes brothers in "Screaming and Screaming", it is not difficult to understand why the US version of "Funeral" can't wait to laugh at the dead from the beginning. point. In contrast, the English version of "cold" got the most notable performance here. The relatively restrained performance of the actors, the slightly serious overall atmosphere, the clean editing, and the sense of stability brought by the camera placement are all in line with General attitude towards death. Later, an unexpected plot was used to break the original quiet pattern, but the laughter was quickly gathered and returned to calm all at once. British humor seems to have a layer of film while smiling cutely, and a smile is enough, there is no need to grin and laugh. Switching to the US version, the black buddies have already opened their voices and chattered endlessly.
Just as why the "Shrek" series needed Eddie Murphy to voice the noisy "Asses", the black comedian's kung fu mostly focused on the speed of memorizing lines and the intensity of FXXK. Therefore, the disadvantage of gathering too many black actors is that the performance mode is too urging, and the four carriages that helplessly lead the laughter are all black buddies who have been beaten up. Fortunately, the choreographer chose a black and white collocation, focusing on body movements, and the burden of pretending to be a silly "aphrodisiac naked man" fell on the white actor. However, this buddy also made people dare not compliment, extremely overly contrived, and turned the epilepsy into a mental retardation. The advantage of the British version in this regard is that, in the sudden change of the plot and the uncontrollable situation that brings comedic effects, the collective performance of the actors can also bring joy, which is not felt in the new version.
There is another difference between the new and old editions, that is, the classes they correspond to are not the same. Although the scale of the old version is not low, it still has a gentleman's style and is closer to the middle class. The new version of the gentleman style is refined into the taste of the market, and the turbulent undercurrent of the original family members is transformed into a flamboyant intrigue. More bitter, more stingy, more mean, more lustful, and more straightforward. Where the film is adapted to be more flavorful.
With the original version of jewels and jade in front, the only meaningful thing in the new version is to provide an opportunity for new and old people from the black group to gather. The film is just like the family portrait shown on the poster. Compared with the British version of the poster, it is gloomy and not With a sensual sneer, the American poster is more like a poster for a party. It's good to be on time, not to be too forceful.
