Some netizens hope that we will tell you about Xie Tian.
So today, Yaqing will come to talk to everyone about seven things about Xie Tian.
From this, hopefully, we can get to know a more authentic Xie Tian.
When it comes to Xie Tian's personality, if you want to use a few keywords to describe, it is optimistic, cheerful, and not "pretending". He loves to play pranks and will "have fun" all his life. I think, because of this, he has made many fun movies, such as "Little Bell", "Icing on the Cake", "Sweet Career", "Seven Bottles of Sesame Officer" and so on, which are endlessly evocative.
Xie Tian was born on June 18, 1914 (May 25 of the lunar calendar), and his original name was Xie Hongkun. His father's name was Xie Shangting, a native of Panyu, Guangdong, who came to Tianjin because of his work and worked in the locomotive section of the Beijing-Tianjin Railway. Xie Shangting likes to play "Cantonese music" and likes to paint, which have had a great impact on Xie Tian. Xie Tian's mother is named Shen Ling, although she can't read a few characters, she loves to watch dramas and movies. Therefore, Xie Tian's initial artistic enlightenment actually came from his parents.
For a time, Xie Shangting was a colleague with Hu Die's father. Both of them are Cantonese nationals, so they are quite close. Xie Tianda loved to go to Hu Die's house to play when he was young, and he was very familiar with Hu Die's sister Hu Shan and cousin Hu Yepei. Because of this relationship, when Xie Tian later came to shanghai to develop in the literary and art circles, Hu Die, who had become a big star, gave him direct help. It was also under the recommendation of Hu Die that Xie Tian had the opportunity to make a movie.
Who is Jaberin? "Jaborin" is Chaplin.
Xie Tian followed his mother to the cinema to watch movies since he was a child. At that time, I watched many comedies performed by Chaplin, and adults and children loved to watch them. Xie Tian's mother, Shen Ling, was from Tianjin, so she always referred to Chaplin as "Jaberin".
What Xie Tian's mother did not expect was that since Xie Tian had seen the movie of "Jia Bolin", she couldn't stop wanting it. As long as there is a movie of "Jaberin" released, he clamors to see it. Although Xie Tian's family is not poor, a large group of adults and children in the family are tight enough to live on the salary of their father alone. But even if the days are difficult, Shen Ling always finds a way to fulfill her son's wishes.
At that time, Shen Ling would often go to the vegetable market to help people process casings, and her hands became red and swollen due to long-term soaking in alkaline water. But once she received her salary, she took Xie Tian to the cinema to see "Jaberin". So much so that Xie Tian can familiarize every action and line of "Jaberin".
Xie Tian likes to perform, and his teacher is "Jaberin". But the person he was most grateful for in his life was his mother.
Who is Chen Tianguo?
Chen Tianguo was Qin Yi's first husband. He and Xie Tian were classmates in the same class when they were in elementary school. Neither of them loves to learn, their grades are not good, and they are both notoriously naughty kings. But this did not affect them in any way that they grew up to become quite famous film actors.
The so-called things are clustered in groups, people are divided into groups, Xie Tian and Chen Tianguo are quite able to play together, and the feelings are still very good. Chen Tianguo later went to Shanghai as an actor first, and he also urged Xie Tian to go to Shanghai and join his Lion Roar Drama Club. Chen Tianguo wrote in a letter to Xie Tian: For your arrival, I have already created public opinion in the Lion Roar Drama Club.
It was at the instigation of Chen Tianguo that 18-year-old Xie Tian came to Shanghai and entered the Lion Roar Drama Club, becoming a professional actor ever since. Here, he was able to stand out with his ingenuity. A new star of drama is rising on the beach.
At the end of 1937, Xie Tian came to Chongqing with the "Shanghai Filmmaker Travel Drama Society" and performed at the Cathay Cinema (later renamed the Peace Cinema). One of the most popular plays he performed in Chongqing at that time was "Twenty-Four Hours in Chongqing".
This play was written by his Tianjin compatriot Shen Fu. It tells the story of the family of an ordinary building in Chongqing before the Pearl Harbor incident. The male protagonist in the play is named KangTai, a positive and optimistic young man with a sense of justice. Shen Fu thought that this role had to be played by Xie Tian, but Xie Tian had a bit of a drum in his heart.
Why?
Because in the same play, there are also many famous big stars, such as Tao Jin, Shen Yang, Shi Yu, etc., any of them, the fame is greater than Xie Tian, and they are also the guarantee of the box office. Therefore, Xie Tian was very worried about not acting well, and smashed the brand of the drama club.
However, everyone cheered him up and helped him analyze the characters together, and finally the role of Contai was successfully established on the stage. At that time, the drama "Chongqing Twenty-Four Hours" was very popular in the escort, and almost all adults and children had seen it. Therefore, Xie Tian was very red at that time, walking on the street, and was often recognized as "Kangtai".
Coincidentally, later in Beiping, there was a beautiful teenager named Liu Bingzhang, who also became famous for playing KangTai in the school rehearsal drama "Chongqing Twenty-Four Hours", so after he officially started his career, he changed his name to Kangtai. Yes, he is the actor who became famous for playing Zhou Changxi in "Cross the River Reconnaissance" and Lu Jiachuan in "Song of Youth".
After Xie Tian became popular for starring in "Twenty-Four Hours of Chongqing", he successively starred in two dramas created by Shen Fu, "Jin Yu Man Tang" and "Rhapsody of Little People", and became famous for a time. By this time, he had developed his own performance style, relaxed, witty, humorous, and quite comedic.
At about the same time, there were many talented and ambitious good actors active in the Chongqing performing arts industry, such as Huang Zongjiang, Lan Ma, Shen Yang, etc. They have also successfully portrayed several comedy characters in dramas such as "Drama Spring and Autumn" and "Black Character Twenty-Eight", which are welcomed by the audience. These four people are very good, often get together, and they all love to joke. Once, Lan Ma said that Bai Yang, Shu Xiuwen, Zhang Ruifang, and Qin Yi were the "four famous dans of drama", and our brothers were the "four famous ugliness".
In this way, this title does not go away.
After the founding of New China, Xie Tian became an actor in the North Film Studio, and has created many flesh-and-blood and lifelike characters on the screen, such as Zhang Jinlong in "The Legend of the New Children's Heroes", Ma Jinlong in "Six Doors", Meng Changyou in "Infinite Potential", boss Lin in "Lin Family Shop", etc., whether it is a villain or a positive angle, it has been recognized by the audience.
In particular, Deputy Zhang in the opera film "Honghu Red Guards" was praised by the audience as one of the most memorable characters in the film.
Especially the scene that covered Han Ying's escape, the action of throwing the military hat, I don't know how many people were infected. This shot is also well shot and impressive.
But Xie Tian thought that his performance was a bit "too much".
"Honghu Red Guards" is an excellent opera created by Hubei Opera House, jointly put on the screen by Beijing Film Studio and Wuhan Film Studio, and co-directed by Xie Tian, Chen Fangqian and Xu Feng. The main actors in the play are basically played by actors from Hubei Opera House, while secondary roles can be considered by actors from The North Film Studio. Once the leader of the Wu Film Studio said, Xie Tian, you are an actor, you must play a role in it.
Xie Tian wanted to resign, but he couldn't stand the cooperation party being too enthusiastic, so he chose a supporting role Zhang Adjutant Who did not sing part and did not even have a few lines.
Unexpectedly, in just a few scenes, Xie Tian's performance made the role of Deputy Zhang shine.
In particular, the scene before the sacrifice of Deputy Zhang gave us a particularly strong visual impact. However, Xie Tian thought that he did not grasp the fire when dealing with this scene, and was a little too deliberate to show that this underground party member was not afraid of danger and regarded death as a homecoming, and the "acting" component was more. He said it might be better if it was collected again.
For a while, Xie Tian had an extra nickname, called "Iron Rooster"? The people around him, when they saw him, called him like this, and after shouting, they covered their mouths and smiled.
It was the summer of 1966, and a movement had begun. As a "stinky star in the 30s", Xie Tian naturally became the object of criticism.
Once, a leader organized a large group of people to specifically criticize Xie Tian. They asked Xie Tian to explain the problem, but Xie Tian didn't say anything, because he really didn't have anything to say.
Therefore, this leader said angrily: Xie Tian, you "iron rooster", you are really a dime. If you don't give it honestly, we will use boiling water to water you.
After the head finished speaking, the crowd next to him also shouted in unison: Xie Tian, Iron Rooster, Xie Tian, Iron Rooster! Xie Tian, do you admit that you are an iron rooster?
Xie Tian said: I am an "iron rooster", I don't even have hair, what else do you take boiling water to pour?
As soon as his voice dropped, there was laughter next to him.
The head also did not know how to answer the call for a while, so he asked Xie Tian to "get out of the egg".
Xie Tian is also happy to "get out of the egg", because once you get out of the egg, you can go home and rest.
But what he did not expect was that the nickname "Iron Rooster" was spread from then on. For a long time, as soon as the children saw him, they shouted: Xie Tian, iron rooster. He didn't make a fuss either, but only smiled and replied: You see, the iron rooster has hair or no hair?
Yes, this is the real Xie Tian, no matter how difficult the day, can be bitter, can make people laugh out loud.
Speaking of which, there are many more stories about Xie Tian, so let's continue to tell them next time.
But I don't know in your hearts, what kind of actor Xie Tian is? What kind of characters? Welcome to communicate with more netizens through the message area.
