In the past year, domestic good dramas have ushered in a "blowout".
Excellent main theme works, emerging in an endless stream, "The Age of Awakening", "Armageddon", "Ideals Shine on China", "Meritorious Achievements"... It's dizzying.
Some unknown treasure actors, with their accurate playing of historical figures, entered the audience's sight and reinterpreted the craft of "acting".
In addition, the period drama also ushered in the outbreak, "Mountains and Seas", "Great Rivers and Rivers 2", "Human World"...
Our understanding of the "history of reform" in China is constantly enriched in these dramas, and the criteria for judging good actors have also been subverted again and again after the broadcast of these dramas.
The splash of Reiza, The Song Yunhui of Wang Kai, the Zheng Juan of Yin Tao, the Zhou Bingyi of Xin Baiqing... More famous than the role is a group of powerful actors, completely to the front of the stage, with their own professional ability to convince and love the audience.
Looking back on many good dramas in the past year, Pigo selected one of the "8 actors with the best acting skills" and ranked a name, this ranking does not look at fame, only looks at the actor's performance in the play.
Below, let's start with the 8th place, one by one, and see their performances, where is the good?
Eighth place, Hu Jun (Played Xu Xiao in "The Sword In the Snow")
Hu Jun was assigned to Beijing Renyi just after graduation, and now at the age of 54, he is already a national first-class actor.
There are many classic roles that Hu Jun has recognized, and the audience is most familiar with Qiao Feng in "Tianlong Eight Parts".
The tough guy and wild atmosphere on his body are well integrated with the role of Qiao Feng, and even Jin Yong praises it, which is his favorite version.
18 years after "Tianlong Eight Parts", Hu Jun once again starred in the martial arts drama "Sword Line in the Snow", although he failed to save the sparse reputation of this drama, but the Starling King Xu Xiao played by him is still the most "amazing" role in the whole drama.
Before this, Hu Jun had just harvested the tears of countless audiences with the role of Lei Dad in "Changjin Lake".
Although the characters in "The Knife In the Snow" are fictional costumes, in terms of shaping, Hu Jun's performance method is the same as That of Lei Dad, that is, "contrast".
A look in the opening scene interprets cold-blooded, tough guys and murderous spirits.
With this armor, it looks like a lord who eats people and does not spit bones.
However, in the later plot, Hu Jun's Xu Xiao instead bears most of the laughter of this play, such as being beaten by his son on the scene.
In the plot of power, Hu Jun let this role shine with bottomless planning and agility.
In episode 18, Xu Xiao and Zaifu Zhang Julu directly clash, and Zhang Julu, in order to provoke Xu Xiao, wants to cut down a tree in honor of the princess.
Look at the change in Hu Jun's eyes, from the general murderous spirit, to the mental calculation, and then to the final relief.
Three close-ups, not a single line, interpret the earth-shaking changes in Xu Xiao's heart.
This kind of emotional tension outside the lens is brought about by Hu Jun's acting skills. If there is no Xu Xiao of Hu Jun, the score of "Sword Line in the Snow" is estimated to be lower than it is now.
Seventh place, Wang Zhifei (Gao Mingyuan in "Sweeping Black Storm")
57-year-old Wang Zhifei, although he is not popular, is a rare old drama bone that has requirements for his own drama.
Since his debut, Wang Zhifei has always adhered to the principle of only taking 3 to 4 plays a year, and carefully interpreting each role, whether the role is the protagonist or a supporting role.
In the early years, Wang Zhifei was handsome and handsome with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and played a decent character in military dramas, and even played commander-in-chief Zhu De in "Gutian Junhao".
With the increase of age and life experience, today's Wang Zhifei is biased towards some scheming and rough characters, such as Shang Martin in "Great Qin Empire" and Gao Xiang in "East Palace".
Looking at Wang Zhifei's appearance and eyes, he is the kind of boss-level figure who controls everything behind the scenes, and in "Sweeping Black Storm", he shows this characteristic to the fullest.
Gao Mingyuan, played by him in "Sweeping The Black Storm", is the biggest behind-the-scenes black hand in the whole play, not only cold-blooded, but also always has an unfathomable sense of mystery.
Let's look at a scene, Wang Zhifei in the play, and Sun Honglei "full of gunpowder" opponent play, the two face each other, Sun Honglei talked about the process, Wang Zhifei almost did not do any expression, when listening to Sun Honglei finished speaking, he gently shy, the audience can feel the critical point where his emotions are about to erupt, like the tranquility before the storm.
And that threatening smile with contempt, sarcasm, indomitable and a little playful is the classic moment he left behind throughout the play.
Sixth place, Wang Lei ("Gongxun" as Li Yannian)
Wang Lei is also from Beijing Renyi, is also a national first-class actor, or a member of the Chinese Dramatists Association, with multiple positions.
In terms of acting skills, Wang Lei has never been vain.
In the past year, there have been several war films on the theme of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the most brilliant of which is probably "Nengwen Nengwu Li Yannian" in "Meritorious Service."
In terms of the significance of film and television works, the "Li Yannian Unit" clearly explains the question of what role political work cadres play in the army that many war films have never explained.
The reason why this problem can be explained transparently is because Of li Yannian, played by Wang Lei.
In the play, before the great war, someone became a deserter, and Wang Lei, as an instructor, did ideological work for the whole company.
Looking at the progression of the four eyes, the first is a didactic teaching.
The second is to push oneself and others with feelings;
The third, which has completely brought emotions into it, said that the warriors all began to move, and some even had tears in their eyes.
This expression on the last battlefield was Pigo's most memorable moment.
Can catch the big close-up of the face, in the scene of the large lines, can express the emotions of the characters to this extent, Wang Lei's acting skills are worthy of recognition, selected as one of the best performances in the past year, everyone expects.
Fifth place, Liu Yijun (He Yong in "Sweeping Black Storm", Zhang Cheng in "Beginning")
Relying on dramas such as "The Pretender" and "Great Prospects", Liu Yijun, who played the famous villain, has become a police professional in the past year, not only playing the police Officer He Yong in "Sweeping The Black Storm", but also playing the police officer Zhang Cheng in the popular network drama "Beginning".
Below, we will take a look at the details and skills of Liu Yijun's acting skills from the shaping of these two policemen.
He Yong, the leader of the task force in "Sweeping The Gangs", is a person who is jealous and hateful, in other words, he is an absolutely decent person.
Therefore, when Liu Yijun saw his old classmate Li Chengyang (played by Sun Honglei), he disdainfully gave him a blank eye, but during interrogation, he "stared like a brass bell".
In "The Beginning", it is different, although he also plays a policeman, but this time he does not have absolute determination and self-confidence, and even falls into self-doubt again and again.
When he appeared, the gentle and soft whispering of Li Shiqing (played by Zhao Jinmai) lying on the hospital bed formed a strong contrast with He Yong.
When thinking, what is in his eyes is not the certainty of He Yong, but the belief and doubt.
When he heard something like "dream in a dream", he unconsciously had a cheek-hugging body movement, which meant that his suspicions were a little more.
Listening to Li Shiqing's description of his experience, Zhang Cheng, who did not believe it, had a slight action of swallowing saliva.
He was also afraid that this was rarely shown in the image of the police.
It is precisely because of this shaping in the front that in the later episodes, Zhang Cheng's growth can be traced, which also paves the way for his final sacrifice.
No matter from which point of view, an actor like Liu Yijun is a proper treasure.
Fourth place, Wang Jinsong ("Armageddon" as Chiang Kai-shek, "Ideal Shines on China" as the old squad leader)
Frankly speaking, in the past year, Wang Jinsong has two performances, which are the most admirable.
The first paragraph is Chiang Kai-shek, played by him in "Armageddon".
As a recognizable actor, in fact, Wang Jinsong is not the best candidate to play Chiang Kai-shek, because he does not look like him and has no experience in playing a "historical special figure".
But Wang Jinsong still left a deep impression on Pi Ge with his superb acting skills.
In particular, he showed Chiang Kai-shek, the "big man" at that time, those delicate presentations of careful thoughts, such as the chongqing negotiations, the airport pick-up halfway regret,
Another example is to meet the venue and make the last appearance of the venue, let everyone welcome themselves, and even hate a can of Hunan spicy because they hate Chairman Mao.
He organically combined Chiang Kai-shek's personality traits as a politician," such as ambition, careful eyes, and acuteness, so that Chiang Kai-shek's character was "alive" from the stereotypical impression of history.
And turning his head, he played a red army elder Qian who sacrificed himself to save people in "Ideal Shines in China".
You'd be amazed at how an actor could play two completely opposite roles at almost the same time, so mellow and so natural.
In old money, you can't see the slightest breath of Chairman Jiang, but instead a monumental image of a soldier who loves soldiers like sons and sacrifices himself for others.
When filming this play, Wang Jinsong was also really lying in the snow, buried by the snow.
In fact, in the end, no matter how amazing acting skills, dedication is the basic background of actors.
The reason why Wang Jinsong can achieve such a state of performance is inseparable from his love and respect for the cause of acting.
Third place, Lei Jiayin ("The World" as Zhou Bingkun)
Lei Jiayin's Zhou Bingkun is recognized as one of the best performances in recent times.
Pi Ge has analyzed Lei Jiayin's performance many times before, especially in several scenes where he and his father Zhou Zhigang clashed, Lei Jiayin's performance was really eye-catching.
This time, we look at the two different games.
The first scene is a scene when Zhou Bingkun sees his vegetative mother and wakes up.
Under the role of Lei Jiayin, the usual Zhou Bingkun always shrugged his eyebrows and hung a sad face, as if everyone owed him.
In this scene, Lei Jiayin interprets the 3 progressive levels of acting skills, which makes people stunned -
When Zhou Bingkun found that his mother woke up, he did not smile or be moved at the first time, but was surprised.
The eyeballs stared at the boss and cried out to Mom.
Why? Time passed so long, the mother suddenly woke up, of course, he had to first confirm, and even confirm whether it was a dream.
After that, it was confirmed that it was not a dream, and it was also confirmed that his mother was awake, and the corners of his eyes were filled with love.
Immediately after, the mother slept for two and a half years of sentimentality, and the difficulty of herself and her wife surged into her heart, and she began to move, and even choked.
A series of performances, natural and casual, reasonable, emotionally delicate, rich and in place.
The second scene is a confession scene with Zheng Juan.
This kind of dodging of green eyes makes the embarrassing state of "unnatural" natural and smooth.
In the confrontation with Yin Tao, the eyes of the two are full of that thick but unexpressible love for various reasons.
The latter confession is the embodiment of Lei Jiayin's line skills, and such a stuttering-looking passage has actually been practiced many times.
Smooth lines are often easy to say, but it is not easy to say such incoherent but accurately expressing affection.
All in all, Quare Jiayin's interpretation of Zhou Bingkun's "孬, instigation, and embarrassment" this time is not exaggerated.
Second place, Wang Zhiwen ("Rebel" as Gu Shenyan)
Wang Zhiwen's performances are often accompanied by a unique personal charm.
In "The Rebel," he played Gu Shenyan, a communist lurking within the Kuomintang.
This role has the characteristics of both good and evil in appearance, and in the performance of the details of this role, Wang Zhiwen can be described as whiplash.
Below, we talk about a one-man show of Wang Zhiwen in the play -
In episode 25, Gu Shenyan's old comrade-in-arms Lao Ji died, and he came to the park alone and sat on the bench that used to connect with Lao Ji.
Seeing Gu Shenyan, who was accustomed to parting from life and death, he had no special feelings about sacrifice for a long time, but when his comrades died, he was still afraid to lose.
Turning his head to find that on the bench, there was no longer a familiar figure of Old Ji, and he seemed to have just accepted this fact.
Squeezing his eyes hard, in fact, this is his efforts to keep the tears from flowing, he is feeling sorry for his old comrades, but as an undercover, he needs to always maintain emotional restraint and vigilance.
Tears still flowed out, and he rubbed his eyes hard with his hands, revealing one eye, squinting around.
It's a professional habit, he has to pretend to squint, but also to observe whether there are suspicious people around him.
This performance is only a moment, not even less than a minute, but it is this short performance that presents the emotional tension of the life and death of the comrade-in-arms and the harsh environment of undercover work.
Some people say that Wang Zhiwen's eye bags can be acted, and this design and blank space for subtle body movements is indeed only controlled by old drama bones like Wang Zhiwen.
First prize, Xin Baiqing ("The World" as Zhou Bingyi)
Chen Kaige commented on Xin Baiqing's acting skills after filming "The Legend of the Demon Cat": eat deeply and vomit less.
This evaluation is very high, not only affirming Xin Baiqing's Li Bai, but also affirming that he is a real "drama bone".
Limited to the role, Zhou Bingyi, played by Xin Baiqing in "The World of Man", only began to explode acting in the second half of the whole play.
One of the scenes that Pi Ge was most impressed by was a scene in which Zhou Bingyi and his wife Hao Dongmei talked about divorce near the end of "The World of Man".
Hao Dongmei sent something to Zhou Bingyi, during which he sneered and talked about divorce.
When she deliberately teased and handed her gaze to Zhou Bingyi, you saw Xin Baiqing's eyes.
Dodging, weak-mindedness, and indecisive moves are almost like two people, zhou Bingyi, who should be in a high-powered position as the "secretary of the municipal party committee".
In the subsequent affectionate confession, Zhou Bingyi finally decided to have a showdown with his wife and threw the diagnosis report of stomach cancer to Hao Dongmei.
Then turned his head, eyes not knowing where to stare, thoughtful.
Looking closely, Xin Baiqing grew a breath, accompanied by a swallowing action, which represented a relief, Zhou Bingyi finally let go of the psychological burden.
This detail requires life experience, and the audience who has quarreled with the lover should be very clear about this process, and the two will not stare at each other no matter where they are staring.
This is an action that belongs only to the husband of the family, Zhou Bingyi.
After his wife's attitude improved slightly, Xin Baiqing's expression also stretched a lot in an instant.
Looking at his wife who was crying and drooling, Zhou Bingyi had another bowed head and swallowed, as the secretary of the municipal party committee, but also as a man, he could not show emotions at will, and he must also be strong.
We can understand this interpretation as swallowing tears into the stomach.
You see, in the whole play, Hao Dongmei, played by Sui Junbo, performed very openly, the emotions were very strong, there was hysteria of crying and shouting, and Xin Baiqing did not have extra lines from beginning to end, just a few micro-actions, the husband's heart was complicated and relieved, and the performance was vivid to the end.
This is "eat deeply and vomit less."
A few years later, when people talked about "The World of Man", Zhou Bingyihui, like Li Bai, became the representative role of Xin Baiqing.
Well, this is the "8 actors with the best acting skills" in Pigo's mind in the past year.
However, it is still that sentence, the acting of the matter, there are both objective parts and subjective parts, both related to personal drama viewing experience, but also related to everyone's life experience.
This year, in everyone's mind, there are those amazing good actors, you may wish to leave a message in the comment area to discuss.
