"Preach in the text." --Tang Tears"
The star-studded Hong Kong film scene.
Which actors steal the scene?
It is estimated that Liang Jiahui will be the first to recommend, from the walking posture and aura to the wrinkles, eyes and mustache, he will use everything he has to compete with his opponents.
He should be followed by Zhang Jiahui, "Jesus can't keep him, I said." ”
The third place may be Stephen Chow. In the land of comedy, he belongs to the state of standing there and being full of drama, such as "King of a Thousand Kings 2000".
There is also Jacky Cheung and Wu Zhenyu, whose performances are always a little ingenious.
Just a handful of palms.
So which actors don't steal the scene?
The first nature is Zhou Runfa, Dun Hou is calm and calm, and his jianghu righteousness has affected many people, and so has the drama road.
The second is Liang Chaowei, whose performance is meticulous and occasionally aggressive but not prominent.
The third is Aaron Kwok, who is unusually focused on the character and is highly consistent with the plot.
In addition, there are double Liu, Liu Qingyun and Andy Lau, which also belong to the non-aggressive type.
It's also a palm-and-hold number.
First of all, let's look at the encounter of the actors who "steal the scene".
In 2005, the movie "Dragon City Years".
The story of the big guy "Big D" and the little bastard "Airplane".
They met in a boat, and two pairs of small eyes sparkled. Big D said "Laughing at what? If you have to eat, you can eat it. Then he threw a ceramic spoon over, and the plane really smashed the spoon and stuttered it, during which the two small eyes continued to stare at each other, and finally Big D was forced to hit the round field, and then found his own steps.
On this scene alone, it feels like the plane wins big D, after all, maybe the big D in the script can't take the plane.
At this time, Liang Jiahui's reputation is extremely high, and Zhang Jiahui is still in the process of finding his own way to play, and the characters in the film are also exactly in line with each other.
With this play, Zhang Jiahui officially opened his "fighting fierce" drama road.
This movie is Du Qifeng's classic masterpiece.
Other situations, such as Stephen Chow meeting Jacky Cheung as "The Best Son-in-Law", Jacky Cheung meeting Leung Ka Fai as "East into The West", Chow Xing Chi meeting Cheung Fai in "The King of a Thousand Kings 2000", and Zhang Jiahui meeting Jacky Cheung as "Equator", but these four films are lackluster.
There shouldn't be much to miss.
Therefore, the actors who snatched the scene met, and the ceiling work or Du Qifeng's movie "Dragon City Years" was written.
And the cast of "not stealing the scene" is full of points.
In 1989, Gao Jin was framed for amnesia and met DaoZi, so there was "God of Gamblers", a film that created a wave of gambling films, and it was almost Wang Jing's only classic work.
Yuan Haoyun, a bursting criminal police officer, met undercover detective Jiang Lang, which was Wu Yusen's "Hot Hand Detective" in 1992, and its bridge section was borrowed by "Infernal Affairs" ten years later.
In 1998, the black police officer Ah Shen and the killer Yao Dong wrestled, one restless, the other did not move like a mountain, the galaxy image of "Dark Flower" is really a skill, especially the sweat towel in Ah Shen's hand has a soul.
Ah Hua, who only has four lives left, wants to find someone to play a cat and mouse game, he picked the negotiation expert He Shangsheng, this is the 1999 movie "Dark War", and it is a galaxy image, the movie is interspersed with romantic love, but also has the sad meaning of fate, it is indeed a masterpiece.
In 2002, the above-mentioned Infernal Affairs came, three years after talking, three years after three years, three years after three years, almost ten years, boss, police officer Chen Yongren was expelled from the police academy and became a small, Liu Jianming was sent to the police academy to become a policeman, derived from the structure of Changing Face, another level of identity exchange, endless torture and the cycle of fate.
Wu Fusheng, a counterfeit money criminal of the Gentleman of The Humble, and Li Wen, a cowardly and uncreative painter, have joined forces to create a number of earth-shattering cases and sold counterfeit money to the world, but all this is nothing more than Li Wen's cloud-turning hand, from Zhuang Wenqiang's 2018 movie "Peerless".
There is no doubt that these six films are classics.
There is also a case where two kinds of actors are staggered.
In 1987, "Prison Storm" was released, Zhong Tianzheng and Lu Jiayao, the story of righteousness and evil in the jianghu, in the face of the absolute aura, any technique is useless.
Ah Xing, who has special functions, wants to worship the god of gambling as a teacher, but must pass the level of Chen Daozai, the apprentice of the god of gambling, and finally the two cooperate to defeat the bad guy Hussein, and at the end of the film, the god of gambling gets off the scene, the aura is terrible, this is the 1990 Wang Jing movie "Gambler".
In 1991, Wang Jing's old trick was repeated, and another nonsensical spoof drama began, Gu Jing against Che Wenjie, the title of the film "The Whole Trick Expert".
Where should the father of the lecture and the son of the quick success stand? With a crossing to achieve the reconciliation of father and son, in 1993 Chen Kexin and Li Zhiyi co-directed the film "New Difficult Brothers and Difficult Brothers".
In 1994, Peng Qihua directed a nonsense gambling film called "The Dragon Gambles on the Victory of the Sacred Banner", a spoof.
Zhou Chaoxian, who has both forbearance, arrogance and perversion, and Fang Guohui, a cadre of the Justice Bureau of Investigation, although justice will win, but this is a solo dance and carnival of Zhou Chaoxian, the 1997 Ma Dangxiong film "Black Gold".
In 2000, Chen Jiashang made an action blockbuster, a fledgling young man, with a calm and steady police officer, a wonderful fight but a lackluster story.
Hong Ren is related to the left hand, brotherhood and the upsurge of the jianghu, the story is quite tortuous, deliberately confusing the cause and effect of the narrative, and it is also slightly similar to the "Dragon on the Edge" a few years ago, which is "Jianghu" written by Du Zhilang and directed by Huang Jingfu.
In 2012, a high-level battle within the police force appeared on the big screen for the first time, and the lips and swords of Liu Jiehui and Li Wenbin can be included in the film history classics, and the new director's first work "Cold War".
There are also 2013's "Complicity" and "Anti-Drug".
In terms of film quality, "Cold War" can be described as a ceiling, followed by "Black Gold" and "Prison Storm".
From the case study of the above three actor groups, you may try to draw conclusions.
When the cast is mainly created by those actors who "steal the scene", the possibility of the film becoming a classic is low, and it needs to have the director's strong pressure and balance.
And the actors who "steal the scene" and "don't steal the scene" meet, and the probability of producing classic works begins to increase.
If the actor who is completely "not stealing the scene" participates, the probability of contributing classic works increases geometrically.
And then push back to the upcoming four big-budget Hong Kong films.
For example, "When the Wind Rises Again" led by Aaron Kwok and Liang Chaowei, "Goldfinger" starring Liang Chaowei and Andy Lau, and "Sweeping Drugs 3" starring Aaron Kwok and Liu Qingyun, as well as "Wind Forest Volcano" created by Liang Jiahui and Liu Qingyun, in terms of probability, the possibility of the first three becoming classics may be greater than the last one.
But this is only a possibility, not a necessity.
And the style and way of acting, the promotion or influence on the film must exist.
The conclusion may be a joke.
Or in a word.
It can also be extended to more works to observe and verify.
It's fun.
