Rainy Film and Television / Give you a different film and television interpretation
Zhou Xingchi Xingye's personal profile, I will introduce it more than ever, as a symbolic character of Chinese films, nearly 40 years since the film, enduring and deeply influential generations. His nonsensical comedy style quietly changed the way post-80s and post-90s people spoke. It is also his superb acting skills that are once in a century, which makes more people in the industry marvel.
Although there are wonderful interpretations in the movie, the huge contrast between the inside and outside of the play makes people's real understanding of him intricate. Some people praised him as a genius, and some people said he was a tyrant. At the age of 58, full of white hair but still alone, once had a sincere love placed in front of him, he did not cherish, until after the loss of regret Is not urgent. If God gives him another chance to do it again, he says, "I don't want to work so hard." Perhaps, after experiencing it, he knew what was most important.
As the foundation of Stephen Chow's nonsense comedy, "A Comic Book Breaks the End of the World" opens a door that cannot be closed for 30 years for Chow Xingchi's interpretation career, and with this movie, there is the "Gamble Saint" in the back, and there is a star.
It is often said that three years old looks eighty. After watching this movie again 30 years later, I found that the plot setting and performance method in this movie almost covered Zhou Xingchi's life outside the drama in and out of the play for 30 years, and he understood Zhou Xingchi after reading it.
In 1990, "A Comic Book Breaks the World" made Stephen Chow's comedy style familiar to everyone. Even the definition of "Xiao Qiang" appeared for the first time in the movie. A serious talk of boring nonsense, always at the most serious time, suddenly change the rhythm and become so unorthodox.
Disturb your normal movie-watching ideas, making your heart mutter: What is this thing? How did you shoot it? But good to like.
In this movie, Zhou Xingchi's comedy performance is almost experienced in the later movies, the difference is that compared to the later works after the big hit, in this movie, Zhou Xingchi did not exaggerate the funny performance, but only used his rich facial expression changes and strong language humor performance ability to make the moviegoers smile.
It is said that Stephen Chow's films are comedies, but Stephen Chow always thinks that he is making tragedies. When I was a child, watching Stephen Chow's movies, after watching them, they all laughed, and when they grew up, they could laugh and cry when they watched Stephen Chow's movies.
This tone has been laid in "A Comic Book Breaks the World", which is a Chow-chi-esque comedy, but the final tragic ending of the movie is always selectively forgotten when everyone talks about Chow's comedy. It may be that the final tragic ending of this movie is too direct, so that later in Stephen Chow's films, the performance of "sadness" is always so obscure that the viewers can understand it on their own.
From the film decades of Stephen Chow, as the number one person in Hong Kong films, there are countless excellent works that have contributed in the entire acting career, but there is only one film emperor with weight---- 2002's "Kung Fu Football", which makes people who once likeD Chow Xingchi unacceptable, and some people think that the film emperor has one a year, but Chow Xingchi is a genius who will have one in a hundred years.
The selective neglect of acting may be that the academic school has not given affirmation to the way nonsense comedy is performed. This can also be seen in "A Comic Book Breaks the World", in this movie, Stephen Chow offers almost textbook performance clips.
1, when they are planted with bribes, their best friends do not trust themselves, and when they pull out their guns, they are considered to be shooting, that kind of loneliness and helplessness from being wronged at the beginning, to being disheartened, Zhou Xingchi's performance is impeccable
2, when seeing a good friend injured to death, Zhou Xingchi's handling is equally wonderful
But it is not these shots that are remembered by more people as a whole.
In the movie, Zhou Xingchi likes ann, but because his good friend likes it and silently hides in his heart, in the end, when his friend died, he also decided to leave the jianghu, but his love for ann has not been spoken.
Whether it is the later "Journey to the West" or the real Zixia Fairy, that love in Zhou Xingchi's heart, a position that will always be retained, but did not fill the position with that person, has become an unspeakable feeling
In the end, Xingzai left, and Zhou Xingchi was slowly retreating into the background, and it was difficult to see him again in the movie.
From 1990 to 2020, a full 30 years have passed, and Stephen Chow has given almost all of his time to the movie
When he had white hair and asked others with trepidation if he had a chance, I would like to say: The opportunity has only begun.
