The Gathering at South Station is a stylized film, and stylized films make their way to the big screen, a test for both the director and the audience. This change forces the director to choose between expression and pandering, and it is also testing the audience's tolerance for the film's themes and expressions. Anyway, I think it is good to be able to see the South and the Earth in the cinema, the window to the audience has become larger, and the next step is screening.
At the party at the South Station, whether Hu Ge performed well or not is just a personal opinion, not a breakthrough as I imagined, very ordinary. He acted very hard, and he didn't use too much force. I felt his sincerity, but I really couldn't read the story of this character. I think he is so handsome. Sometimes being handsome is not necessarily a good thing. Whenever I see his face, the word "handsome" always pops up. When I finish my sigh, the inner drama is over. A small leader of a car-stealing gang who abandoned his wife and children, accidentally killed the police and was running for his life. He didn't see the sun for several days without eating. No one could believe that he was very nervous. He should not have such a face. In fact, in this movie, even Wan Qian is too beautiful, only Zeng Meihuizi convinced me that she is really a familiar swimmer. This made me think, are handsome guys destined to have no way to break through, they have to find characters that fit their image to play. You see, Liao Fan, I think what he plays is what he does. I can feel the urgency of the transformation of young and middle-aged actors. I watched Hu Ge on the live broadcast a few days ago and saw the scars on his brows, and I was still a little distressed. He is not a person who has never experienced wind and waves. It should be almost the same when looking at the mountains and waters. People should not only label him as a handsome guy. But what can I do, he is really handsome. Look at Xiao Lizi and Gu Tianle, when it is so hard to get a prize, I feel that they really want to be recognized by others beyond their appearance. So what, those who win awards are always a public face that anyone can play. With such a stylized director as Diao Yinan, if your face is not enough to tell a story, your figure will be as thin as a piece of paper. Hu Ge's performance did not support this character's demands. His behavior seemed to be very stream-of-consciousness. I never knew what he wanted to do. In the end, it was better not to shake the burden.
I feel that many people have the same first impression after watching the movie, that is: Director, what do you think? I really don't know what the director wants to say. The male protagonist, for a while, is like a hidden master of the world, and for a while like a drowning dog who can't be saved. I don't know what we can gain by following his line of sight. The director is actually very romantic. He catches prisoners in the zoo, bj's on the boat at night, and kills with umbrellas. He is full of style and talented. But the overall feeling is a bit like a nameless person who wants to express everything, the suffering of life, the bitterness of the bottom layer, and the fluctuation of human nature, but inexplicably stopped abruptly. There are also some scenes that are too slow, although it is to express the atmosphere of swords and swords, it still makes people want to yawn.
