Recently, a Hong Kong media broke the news that "The King of Comedy 2" has already started filming in the Mainland. Seeing this news title, Xiao Susu was overjoyed. "The King of Comedy" can be said to be a movie that only belongs to Stephen Chow, and this time "The King of Comedy" The filming of "The King of Comedy 2" means that... Zhou Xingchi... is going to come back to play? !
Xiao Susu opened the news with 10,000 expectations, "Zhou Xingchi did not appear as the male lead in "The King of Comedy 2", but served as the producer of the film..."
There is a little disappointment. It seems that the "King of Comedy" in Xiao Susu's mind still hasn't appeared.
Pack up your mood, although Stephen Chow is only a producer in "The King of Comedy 2", Xiao Susu believes that he will definitely treat this film with the same professional attitude as he treats his "actor" status. I believe this film will definitely live up to the expectations of fans. Welcome to Suning Studios to watch "The King of Comedy 2"!
Since you can't see Zhou Xingchi as an "actor" in "The King of Comedy 2", that's all, let's review "The King of Comedy".
What is comedy? What is a comedian?
There is an explanation in the magazine "Watching Movies": "All observations, doubts, reflections, struggles, resentments, and injustices are put behind the scenes, and a conclusion suitable for all ages is settled. This is comedy; something heavy and painful Climbing up on the face, leaving wrinkles, ravines, and stubble, and then turning around and smoothing everything with an invulnerable expression, this is a comedian." Combining the plot of "The King of Comedy" and the hardships in Stephen Chow's acting career, It seems that this detailed and specific "explanation" was customized for "The King of Comedy" and Stephen Chow.
Briefly talk about this "King of Comedy".
"Dream still has to be, in case it comes true."
Yin Tianqiu, the male protagonist of the movie, is a low-level runner, but he has his own clear goal in life - to become an actor. However, the road to becoming an actor is difficult, and he is often attacked and insulted by others. He always chooses to laugh at himself to resolve this embarrassment.
At the beginning of the film, he faced the sea and shouted "hard work, struggle!" to cheer himself up; on the set, he got into trouble and wanted to pick up a box lunch before leaving, but was humiliated by the uncle of the field manager, who threw the box lunch in his hand into one. He took it and threw it to the dog to eat, and shouted abusively: Shit, you are a piece of shit, life is cheaper than an ant...; When Du Juaner informed his role that he was being replaced, he asked himself in a very funny way what to play Role? How many lines of dialogue there are, and then repeatedly and earnestly repeating dialogues such as "ah" and "oh", trying to integrate feelings into it and make his performance more exciting; after helping the police officer solve the case, the first sentence asked: " Am I doing well?".
There are countless such plots. Zhou Xingchi used this film to tell the history of his struggle. In fact, it is not the history of struggle in your life now or in the future. Yin Tianqiu in the movie can be unlucky, down and out, and unlucky, but he will never be without dignity. It is through the nonsensical behavior of a grass-roots character like Yin Tianqiu in "The King of Comedy" that Zhou Xingchi shows that little people still have dreams and continue to struggle for them. No matter how lonely or looked down upon at the beginning, after hard work, you will eventually get a happy ending, which gives confidence to many people who grew up in the grass-roots class, and arouses the blood and hope in the hearts of many unwilling to be mediocre.
"Meet her at the most deplorable age."
In the movie, the emotional development of Yin Tianqiu and Liu Piaopiao begins with a nonsensical way of laughing. The two have a long talk after getting to know each other. The tragic story of Fluffy's first love also understands why she is a dancer.
After the relationship between the two has further developed, there is the most heartwarming dialogue:
"Where are you going?"
"go home."
"and then?"
"Go to work."
"Is it okay not to go to work?"
"Are you going to support me if you don't work?"
Yin Tianqiu hesitated for a while, Liu Piaopiao continued to walk forward, and Yin Tianqiu stopped her.
"Hey."
"what happened again?"
"I'll take care of you!"
"Take care of yourself first, fool."
At the end of the film, Liu Piaopiao and Yin Tianqiu sat side by side by the sea looking at the sea. It was dark and the sea was dark.
Liu Piao Piao sighed, "It's so dark, I can't see anything."
Yin Tianqiu: "No, it will be beautiful when it's dawn."
Yes, this is the optimistic Yin Tianqiu, the night will come, but the light of the day will always drive away the darkness, and love is probably the same.
Stephen Chow chose the lines without disguising the most direct emotional expression, directly hitting the depths of people's hearts. Yin Tianqiu met a person who most wanted to take care of his life when he was most incapable. The phrase "I support you" has moved many people to tears. Yin Tianqiu and Liu Piaopiao have also become a classic couple on the screen, and love is more moving in a nonsensical way of expression.
"In comedy, we talk about reality and talk about the past."
"The King of Comedy" is Zhou Xingchi's semi-autobiographical work. In the film, Zhou Xingchi portrayed Yin Tianqiu, an extra actor who loves acting but has always been disliked. I have to say that this is likely to be the director's personal experience.
Before Stephen Chow became famous, his unique acting skills were ridiculed and questioned in various ways. He went to the crew to play tricks every day. Even if his aunt ordered him to be expelled, he still did not give up looking for a small role; he opened Stan every day. Niravsky's "The Self-Cultivation of Actors"; he would patiently tell the person who called him a "dead man" every time: "Actually, I am an actor."
There is a plot in the movie: Yin Tianqiu lost the chance to play the leading role. He clings to the script, which is all the carrier of dreams. It was a kind of loss that could no longer be concealed with calm, "You better go!" The crew finally said this sentence.
I don't know how many times Zhou Xingchi has encountered such setbacks in the real struggle. That helpless expression of loss made me feel that my heart was hollowed out.
The cruel reality also came to Liu Piaopiao. Seeing Yin Tianqiu with her idol Du Juan'er, and hearing Du Juan'er's words of care and concern for Yin Tianqiu, she seemed to understand something, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised. , affecting the new injury on his face because of his stubbornness. She thought maybe this was the reality, maybe she shouldn't have dreamed! Facing the car that was driving away, she said in a self-deprecating and disappointed manner: "That's it!" This sentence was so calm, but it carried a lot of pain and depression.
"The King of Comedy" is just about the bitter lives of two little people, but it is so touching. Maybe it's because life itself is a tragedy, but it turns into a comedy when we watch it, but we don't even know it.
