I still remember that in 17 years, the little brother shared with everyone in the tweet with a sense of truth about the "Dream of the Red Chamber" starring a group of small drama bones.
Looking at Sister Bao and Daiyu again, you will still be amazed
At that time, I was very emotional: "Under the dilemma of so many acting schools gradually aging and the newcomers being powerless to succeed, we saw the hope of future national dramas."
A flash of 2 years has passed, and I did not expect that the flag was still standing steadily.
Thanks to these little drama bones, this summer has brought another amazing work -
Journey to the West by the Naïve Faction
This drama, like the Xiaoxiao Bone series, comes from the Pan Liping team. Under the director's immortal casting, these little pot friends are too spirited.
True in the master-apprentice quartet. The Buddhist Monk (Duan Zhiwen), who is covered in Buddha light, is extremely similar to the Yaxiu described in the book.
Rin Wei Wei is more elegant and elegant, and the Buddhist clothes can be tailored;
The glow is brilliant and full of dry, and the colors are condensed into the universe.
The image of the Great Sage (Ge Yide) is also not playful, faithfully restoring the hairy-faced Lei Gongzui monk Yazi.
Yellow-haired golden hoops, golden-eyed fire eyes;
Hairy face thunder mouth, Shuo cheek farewell Saturn.
Eight Precepts (Wan Junyi) and Sha Monk (Dong Jiachen), two young actors, also played the role of one greedy, one humble.
In fact, the 86 version of Journey to the West is also remembered by those beautiful people with various styles and beautiful faces, and they are also one-to-one reproductions in the naïve version.
Like the seven fairies dancing at the banquet, each with a beautiful appearance, these roles are simply the dream of every girl when she was a child.
Chang'e's sister (Played by Chen Shuyi), who appeared in the C position in the dance, is delicate and cute, and exudes a fairy spirit.
There is also the Princess of the Treasure Elephant Kingdom (Played by Deng Linyang), who was abducted by the Yellow Robe Monster, and there is a sadness that cannot be hidden in her eyebrows.
The famous villain Bai BoneJing (Played by Yan Shuyi), the snake and scorpion temperament is very prominent, but the performance of Xiao Pengyou brings a little cuteness.
And the lotus boy Xiao Nezha (Meng Zhixu), who may not appear here in the beautiful girl, but the milk sound is really cute to foul.
Like "Dream of the Red Chamber", these small actors feel a bit of the old version of the charm as soon as they appear, and the acting skills are remarkable.
For example, we all know that the Great Sage has 72 changes, and it is easy to change into a body, but it is difficult to perform Goku's cleverness of scratching his ears and scratching his cheeks and turning his eyes.
The following is sent two gifs, you can see that the small actors are handled very well, and there is no sense of violation of the connection.
The casting is reliable and the acting skills are online, which only shows that this "Naïve Pie Journey to the West" is qualified.
What really makes me want to call for it is —
Reliable adaptation.
In recent years, there have been few remakes of Journey to the West, because everyone is too impressed with the 86 version, and as a childhood memory, the friends can be said to be backwards and backwards of the plot.
This classic work is really insurmountable.
However, watching "Journey to the West" when I was a child will also leave some questions: Tang Monks are too cowardly, always right and wrong, why can they be Taoist monks? Is Goku dead set on protecting Tang Monk, just because he is afraid of tightening the curse?
Perhaps these questions also confuse the screenwriter, this time "Naïve Pie Journey to the West" on the basis of the 86 version, combined with the original book adapted, so that all of these become reasonable.
In particular, the clash of ideas between Tang Monk and Goku.
In this version, the tang monk's previous life was the second disciple of the Buddha, the "Golden Cicada", who devoted himself to the Buddha.
The first meeting with the Great Sage was at the time of the great disturbance in the Heavenly Palace, and he helped the Jade Emperor to subdue the demon monkey. The two fight evenly matched and admired each other.
After that, we all know that the Great Sage was still crushed by the Buddha at the foot of the Five Finger Mountain.
However, just as the Five Finger Mountain was sealed, the golden cicada appeared and knocked down the Buddha, leaving a glimmer of life for the Great Sage.
Why did he do that?
Because of the fact that the Great Saint made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, the Buddha's heart of the Golden Cicada was shaken.
Soon, the Buddha discovered this and demoted him to the netherworld.
The Buddha's words at that time also pointed out where the weaknesses in the personality of the Tang monks came from.
On this trip to learn the scriptures, I will rob you of your courage and make you cowardly, and I will rob you of your eyes and make you ignorant.
Before the Netherworld, the golden cicada went to see Goku who was crushed under the mountain, brought him the spirit peach of Huaguo Mountain, and gave him a tree of peach blossoms.
In the past hundred years, there have actually been many people who have visited Goku, but all the people who come to see him want to know that he "admits his mistakes".
Only the golden cicada asked him, "You don't regret it later."
Why?
Because in the golden cicada, in addition to divinity, there is also a rebellious humanity.
Like you, I am the golden cicada of heaven and earth.
I devoted myself to the Buddha, so that my mind would be free of distractions.
But the Buddha said, I didn't really have enlightenment, and my mind was confused.
The Buddha sent me down to all kinds of robberies.
After that, karmic obstacles, let's each rely on creation.
Hundreds of years passed, and the tenth incarnation of the Golden Cicada became a Tang monk, a flesh and blood body in the form of mood and anger.
Unlike the Tang monks we have seen, this one is not only a complete crying bag, but also encourages and encourages himself to "never return the true scriptures when he is tired of crying."
At this point in the plot, it is still our familiar recipe, Tang Monk unveiled the seal in the Five Finger Mountain, released Wukong, and the two of them went all the way to the Quicksand River.
We all know that the nine skeletons on the sand monk's neck are actually the souls of the first nine worlds of the golden cicada.
But in this version, the nine skeletons not only hid the soul, but also awakened the memory of the golden cicada in Tang Monk's body.
The three disciples all recognized it at this moment, and it turned out that Tang Monk was the former Golden Cicada Elder.
The performance here is very good, and the golden cicada and the Tang monk are distinguished at once
Unfortunately, after successfully crossing the Quicksand River, the golden cicada never appeared again.
In this way, the four masters and apprentices walked all the way to the White Tiger Ridge, which is the place where the famous incident "Three Dozen White Bone Essences" occurred.
Like the original version, Tang Monk's personality belongs to the kind of sweeping the floor and fearing the life of the ants. He didn't argue with demons, only saw Goku injuring three people in a row. With such a mind, how do you become a monk?
And Goku thinks that he is obviously descending a demon, but he is not understood by the master.
But unlike the previous version, this time Goku's confusion not only came from the conflict with Tang Monk's concept, but also because he had been recognized.
When the humanity in the heart of the Golden Cicada saved Goku, he thought that if the Golden Cicada Elder was here, he would not chant a spell to blame him.
But now, the mortal Tang Monk was constantly torturing Goku, tightening his incantations.
When Goku rolled in pain, he seemed to see the golden cicada in a trance, so he pleaded——
Golden Cicada, you come out, you tell Master, it's his mistake.
But when he was about to grab the golden cicada's hand, he felt the cold Zen staff.
Because the devout divinity in Tang Monk's heart overwhelmed everything.
But a monkey, even if it is a Great Sage of Qi Tian, what kind of human nature does he understand? He will only be wronged.
I make the broken six leaves even the liver and lungs for you, exhaust the three hairs and seven holes of the heart, penetrate the ancient cave, enter the deep forest, catch the devil and catch the monster, how much is a scroll of scripture worth?
Not to repay your kindness, why should I be so bitter.
The two people could not convince each other, so they simply slapped and scattered.
As a result, the most tear-inducing master-apprentice bid farewell in the whole play appeared.
Master is kind to me, even though he refuses to accept my worship, but I cannot but worship. After that, the mountains and rivers were long, and we never saw each other again.
In my opinion, this adaptation of "addition" can get high marks.
The weakness of the Tang monks has a reasonable explanation, because the Buddha has robbed him of his courage and eyesight. At the same time, the logic of why Goku is dead set on protecting Tang Monk is perfectly self-consistent.
And the intolerance, hesitation and tears in his heart when Tang Monk broke off his relationship with Wukong also dissipated some of my resentment of Tang Monk's too cruel heart when I watched the drama many years ago.
Not only that, the director also made some subtractions to the script, after all, this is a children's version of "Journey to the West".
Therefore, the daughter-in-law stolen by the Eight Precepts of Gao Laozhuang became the second sister who had helped him. The love between Hundred Flowers and Kui Timber Wolf was also changed to pity.
It can be seen that compared with the previous dramas in the small drama bone series, this time's "Innocent Pie Journey to the West" did not continue to take the route of reproduction play, but tried to adapt.
At the same time, the small drama bones also began to break through the original ecological acting skills and upgrade their skills. For example, in order to let the lead actor Ge Yide play Sun Wukong well, the production team specially arranged for him to learn monkey drama with the national first-class actor Liang Chunlei.
Not only did I learn the form, but the sound was also very similar, and the original voice of Goku being a small actor in the play was a bit shocking to me.
We once said that children should have children's sub-children, and it is rare to be able to imitate the like.
But these children are not complacent about their imitation in place.
Since you are called a small drama bone, a small actor, you don't have to be perfunctory in age. It's really working hard to take on the name of an actor.
Now, their efforts have borne fruit.
Please also some adults, cheer up.
