A few days ago, the online movie "The Origin of the Journey to the West" produced by the classic IP "Journey to the West" was released on Tencent Video. With a good cast, there is also a good reputation compared to other films in the same series.
Of course, I believe that many viewers learned that "The Origin of the Journey to the West" is completely derived from a respectable old artist - "Wu Mengda" teacher, because it is Wu Mengda's posthumous work, many people are holding the feelings and trying it out mentality to watch this movie.
"Wu Mengda" seems to have become the brand of an era, and many of the films he has participated in have given the young people of that era unlimited memories and sorrows.
"Bao Youwei" in "Nine Pin Sesame Officials"; Ming Feng, the "golden right foot" in "Shaolin Football"; Su Qi'er "father" in "Wu Zhuangyuan Su Qi'er"...
As an artist, perhaps the highest achievement in the public's mind is not the popular hot list for many years; winning awards with high gold content; his own wealth and tens of millions of dollars...
It is the role he plays, which can withstand the erosion of time, withstand the test of time, and the value contained in it will stay a few years later, and still allow future generations to have gains...
The many roles played by Teacher Wu Mengda have really done this. For example, Ming Feng, the "golden right foot" who was once a unique scenery in "Shaolin Soccer", has been extremely poor for decades after his leg is broken, and can only rely on the condescending handouts of his former opponents to stay in the football field where he has been glorified.
A scene in the film: The lame MingFeng is full of flattery to the former opponent, and now the big boss is flattering, but even so, he has become the opponent of the superior, and he has long stopped taking his crippled old dog in his eyes, but instead carelessly tears open the scar that is gradually numbing in the heart of the now fallen man, telling him the more cruel truth.
At this time, Uncle Da's expression changed from the most primitive anger to the sad sense of powerlessness, helpless and suppressed the "laughter" mixed with various emotions. Whether this picture was then or now, there is a great sense of shock and impact on the audience.
It is no exaggeration to say that Uncle Da really brought this "golden right foot" Mingfeng from the screen to the audience's eyes, and the classic scene presented by this role immediately became a scene that many viewers would involuntarily think of when they fell into absolute anger but could not do anything.
Uncle Da has achieved it a long time ago, and many artists may not be able to touch the achievements in their lifetime.
In this "Origin of the Journey to the West" filmed by Uncle Da before his death, he played the adoptive father of the supreme treasure.
Among them, many of the pictures presented by Uncle Da also made many viewers laugh in tears, just like: at the beginning, the richest man in the village held an event "As long as who grabs the flower ball, he can be his son-in-law, and the most important thing is the dowry" Uncle Da hurriedly let the Supreme Treasure grab the ball, but when the Supreme Treasure was unwilling, Uncle Da directly revealed the real purpose of "You can't give it to me!" ”
Rich comedy skills, and that face printed in the depths of many people's minds... It seems to bring the audience back to the peak era of his and Star Ye's "you sing and I appear".
Not only that, the tragic transformation for Uncle Da, it was also a hand-to-hand: when the Supreme Treasure had decided to test whether he was a Qi Tian Dasheng or not, and he was already in love with Zixia, he also had to follow Zixia's footsteps!
In that scene, Uncle Da turned his back to the kneeling supreme treasure, the expression on his face, mixed feelings, micro-expressions are continuous - the reluctance to raise children for more than ten years, the real letting go of the wishes in the child's heart... Everything that should be presented is placed on a wrinkled face, and the emotional impact of it spills out directly from the screen.
I didn't expect to see this movie because of Wu Mengda, but I saw a different emotional understanding between supreme treasure and Zixia.
