Have you watched "Dear Child"?
Last night's CCTV premiere, in addition to the plot above, the most resonant in the discussion, one is true, too true -
"Mom, I'm afraid it's not a surveillance in my house." Some netizens said: Finally saw a family life drama that is no longer suspended.
The second is absolute: all the staff have good acting skills, too absolute!
In particular, the main actors Qin Hao and Ren Suxi, a role of husband in the play, were "scolded" all night, and one, was sympathized by the audience all night: it is too difficult for a woman to have a baby!
Looking at the ratings, the first in the country, as a rather serious family drama launched by the Central Eight, this achievement is not bad.
The so-called family has a difficult scripture, and sure enough, the national drama from life can really poke the audience's heart.
If you think that "Dear Child" is just a remake of Zhang Jiayiyu's male film version, you are very wrong.
After chasing six episodes overnight, I dare to say that the drama not only has made a substantial expansion on the basis of the original version, but also rarely in recent domestic dramas, and it is difficult to have such a high pixel like "Dear Child", which examines every inch of the texture of restoring the family, giving birth to a baby, and raising children, and presents the story of the entanglement of two families.
What it wants to show the audience is not the story of how two families save a child, but the glittering gilding of the surface of the "family" little by little.
Revealing the most real dust that has accumulated with the years below.
How black is this dark horse? Another family drama ratings word of mouth double king explosion, is it finally coming? Come, let's take a look at this "Dear Little Child".
1. Entering the drama: I haven't seen it in the national drama for a long time, such a real baby scene
Adapted from the classic domestic film "Left and Right", the original team of "The Hidden Corner", the ambition of "Dear Child" is visible to the naked eye.
Start with the big frame: one child, two families, a tangled and inexplicable joint rescue.
How do I start writing? Of course, it is necessary to have a child first.
As soon as the whole play begins, it is a fertility drama.
Pregnant in October, it is beautiful to say, but people who have really experienced it understand that this process is really not "beautiful" at all.
Ren Suxi's heroine Fang Yinuo, an ordinary family, is still in class near the fertility period, and is teaching students not to fall in love early, and in the blink of an eye, the amniotic fluid is broken.
She held the desk with one hand, so that the students did not move, while the brain was running fast, calling the husband played by Qin Hao, who was dancing lions.
As a result, she was not in a hurry, supported her waist, walked up by herself, and did not forget to explain before leaving: You learn well for me, I will go to have a child first.
But as soon as I arrived at the hospital, my stomach did not move, and the whole family could only wait in the hospital.
Next, there is a picture of a contemporary baby family -
Nervous, bad, broken, one after another.
First of all, the male owner answered a work call, she saw that her husband had something to do, said you go first,
Qin Hao pretended to refuse at first, nothing was as important as your baby, but Ren Suxi pretended to insist, so her husband pretended to be under her strong request and left the ward to get busy.
The husband's front foot just left, Ren Suxi muttered, really go!
Is the sense of reality coming?
After the man left, after handling the work, he drank beer at home alone, watched the ball game and did not want to go to the hospital, the next day, he did not wake up, there was really going to be born.
The husband received the call and rushed to the hospital, and the heroine had been sent to the delivery room.
The next scene should be the closest birth scene in the national drama in recent years to the documentary -
Even if a large group of people are around the group, but the pain of opening the bone slit contraction pain can not help anyone, can only grit their teeth to boil.
In the end, the child is born and pretends to be okay in front of the mother.
Is this the end of having a baby?
The bad thing has just begun.
In the next scene, Qin Hao's character walked into his wife's hospital room with a relaxed face, and as soon as he came in, he said, how to have a smell.
In the next shot, the person is pushed out, and a curtain is blocked, what is this for?
It turned out that pregnant women had wounds and it was inconvenient to go to the toilet, and the size could only use diapers, and some viewers said that they looked at it and immediately substituted it.
These, always still count the daily life of the baby, embarrassing, endure a can't stand it, but the next plot, can't stand it -
One second, the male protagonist also said that he would not take his child's placenta to supplement his uncle, and the next second he ignored his wife who had just given birth, and handed the placenta to the mother played by Li Qinqin. Give yourself a stew of soup for your idle brother, "big supplement". He did not forget to tell his mother not to tell his wife and father-in-law about this matter.
Angry, Qin Hao's wife Yi Nengjing couldn't help but send a Weibo to complain hahaha.
Popular science, the placenta is stored in the hospital is reasonable, in case the child has a disease, the key moment can be taken out to save lives. What if the child is sick when he is eaten? This is obviously also a foreshadowing of the main creator.
The details of the opening scene are almost all living copies of reality.
Familiar, heart-wrenching, flesh and blood. Not like a TV series, more like life.
It is also this fertility drama that makes a pair of new parents and the thinking and habits of two different families collide with each other in the story.
It also laid the groundwork for the next story development.
At this time, the two did not expect that they would go their separate ways, but they would be inseparable.
Life is like this, how fierce the flag stands. How awkward it is when it appears.
The lens is like a pair of calm gaze eyes. It is not only the two families in the play that are watched, but also the countless families outside the play who are producing.
Penetrate the sharpness of reality and thus manifest itself.
The fate of the protagonist's ups and downs begins to resonate with the public.
Some netizens said: Is this afraid to create anxiety and make people afraid of marriage and childbearing?
However, all the powerlessness, depression, and anxiety in the opening scene actually come from the three points of the presentation of reality.
What makes people anxious is not the story, but the reality.
And the moment a child is born is not the end, but the real beginning.
2, scratch the heart: If you are angry with the plot, it is because life is like this
Some netizens said: Several plots in the play are quite real, indeed it will happen in life, you can't feel exaggerated because you look angry, welcome to the real world.
What does the real world look like? The trivial things in life are exhausted.
Childbirth means all kinds of reality tests: habits, hobbies, differences in the three views, contradictions of elders, pile by pile, piece by piece, are all grasping the heart and lungs.
Heart plug one: the husband escapes. Congestion index: headache.
In the opening scene, Qin Hao is eating a roadside stall in Changsha, telling the boss to add more peppers and eat it with a lot of energy.
On the other side of the camera, Ren Suxi is hungry waiting for food, and the radio is talking about the knowledge of raising a newborn baby. When I got home, my husband brought the powder up, there was no pepper, and my wife skimmed my lips. The husband said that pregnant people can't eat chili peppers, so bear with it. Let her eat first.
Ren Sushi came up with a sentence, have you eaten?
Qin Hao listened to a flustered little look and quickly said: "No, I didn't eat it, come, accompany you to eat."
Behind a white lie, isn't it, the skillful manipulation of a married man facing his wife?
This time it's well-intentioned, but what about next time?
But this is just a warm-up, after giving birth, all kinds of chicken feathers began to explode in high density.
Heart plug two: The sister-in-law is not reliable. Congestion index: difficulty breathing.
Who would have thought that Liu Lin, the old drama bone, played a sister-in-law who was so unsuccessful this time.
When I first came, I said with a hot mouth: My former patrons, adults and children can't do without me!
Looking at Liu Lin's face, the audience originally believed, and the next second, the daughter's jaundice was too high and admitted to the hospital.
Ren Suxi returned to Xingshi to ask for guilt, and as a result, Liu Lin was aggrieved, and finally Qin Hao spoke for her.
Some viewers said that they were dizzy and wanted to beat their husbands.
The daughter was hospitalized, and the sister-in-law did not dare to ask for it, so she could only ask the elderly of the two families to take care of it. Unexpectedly, this was the beginning of the nightmare of taking the baby.
Heart plug three: the mother-in-law with the baby is not serious, the child fell. Degree of congestion: Angry and pinched.
This should be the closest moment to the suspense action movie in the play, the heroine went downstairs to find her mother-in-law, the mother-in-law took the baby, watched the mahjong, helped others draw a card, smoked and invested.
A loose hand ignored the stroller that followed the slope until someone shouted: Kids kids!
The heroine sniffed and left, or did not continue, the child fell.
When the mother saw this, she broke down and cried.
Baby is no big deal, things have passed? Wrong, this is the real drama, the contradiction between the two families that was covered up before, like high pressure, exploded.
Heart Congestion 4: Two families quarreled. Degree of cardiac congestion: hypertension.
The child fell, and the contradiction caused by the original two families was like lighting the lead and completely exploding.
From the elders to the unreliable brothers-in-law, all joined the warband and quarreled in the dark.
The audience said that it was almost like seeing their own home: the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was tense, the relationship between mother-in-law and mother-in-law was scorched, the mother-in-law was unblocked, the husband was full of gold oil, and the brother-in-law who did not tune came up to insert a bar.
It looks very anxious, but it feels like it's happening right next to you and me. The blood vessels of the high-blooded audience are about to explode.
This is the "immersive" drama, those who are really dazed, lonely, desperate, hopeful, strong in the process of parenting... They are all common.
And it is this "empathy" that can break the restrictions of region, language, age, and values, so that every audience can resonate.
There is no need for prototypes in life, because prototypes are everywhere.
The entire first six episodes, from giving birth to a child, to resigning the moon sister-in-law, mother-in-law coming, mother-in-law coming, brother-in-law coming, husband and wife feelings have become weak, husband meets a heartwarming girl, one explosive point in one episode, taking turns, the divorce of the male and female masters is already expected, even if the girls who do not appear in the male protagonist's world, the feelings have been worn out by life.
It is precisely because of this that the story touches the resonance formed in childbearing and parenting under the ice surface of chinese families: convulsions, labor pains, anxiety.
If anyone sees the flavor of a suspense thriller in it, it's because reality is.
3, acting: the director is looking for what kind of actors, ah, but also too good at acting
The ambition of the main creator is very large, how to make the ambition land? figure.
To be precise, it is the flesh and blood of the characters, which are covered with real details in the narrative framework, so that the story can be believable and perceptible. In the first six episodes, the actors' performances are a highlight.
Especially Qin Hao and Ren Suxi, their performances should present a novice couple, from the first taste of childbirth anxiety to the postpartum pain, to the hidden pain of the couple's feelings that are constantly weakening, the appearance and psychological state have great changes, and the difficulty can be imagined.
And they completely supported the audience's high expectations for the strength of the faction -
Let's start with Ren Suxi.
As soon as it comes up, the audience experiences the pain, despair and suffocation of the characters.
The story begins with a face of Ren Suxi, stubborn and energetic, but with the anxiety of a novice mother.
Touching the face, under the powder, it is clear that it is a pregnancy spot born in the heart.
Ren Suxi's expression, within a few seconds, is constantly changing: first doubt, then nervousness, then a little angry, turning to pretend that it doesn't matter, removing makeup, but does it really matter? It doesn't matter, how can you stop crying the next second?
Finally, it was time to adjust the mood, take a deep breath in the mirror, and smile stiffly, as if wearing a smile mask.
A one-man show has laid the performance quality of the whole play.
Honestly, this heroine, not flattering, even, somewhat hysterical.
Looking at no one is pleasing to the eye, having to be unreasonable, the whole person is extremely sensitive, violent temper, saying that everything is clipped with a gun and a stick, making people breathless, and even from this can understand why the husband played by Qin Hao has been running away. Wrong, of course, on the husband's side, but replace it with you, in the face of this sharp mouth that can't stop, aren't you tired?
However, it is this kind of performance that makes people shine, women's hormones will change before and after childbirth, and mental tension is a common thing, so it is more necessary to have the thoughtfulness and care of the family and walk out of this period together.
Isn't Ren Suxi playing a real novice mother?
What is particularly stunning is the crying scene where the child was thrown and she tore her heart and lungs as a mother.
In the domestic dramas with universal stylized performances, it is indeed eye-catching.
At first, instead of crying, watch, seize the time to see what the child has fallen into.
Confirmed that it was not a big problem, her eyes were drooping, her lips were slightly open, she was still in a trance, but in the trance, there was self-blame and fear.
Then, there's crying.
This performance is so realistic and natural, it is no wonder that many audience members followed the play.
In contrast, Qin Hao's role does not seem to be so prominent, but the performance of this acting school is also not simple.
What impressed me was the two dinner scenes.
One, he sneaked a person outside to eat powder, every time he chewed hard, eating too much, why is it addictive, and finally can be relieved for a little while.
The other is that the two children come to take care of their wives, eat breakfast together, and then look at him, without force, without deliberateness, the focus is entirely on other things, and the meal is all based on muscle memory.
Subconsciously gulp and swallow. The whole state of eating is complete.
Not suspended, sticking to the ground.
A face filled with exhaustion and numbness jumped out, the kind of anxious scoundrel under the pressure of a novice father facing the contradictions of two families.
In another scene where the two big children quarreled together, the camera quietly stopped on Qin Hao's face, at first, numb and expressionless, and then he quietly said: Noisy, noisy, everyone is happy.
Then, there is a cry after the collapse: the character's powerlessness in the face of contradictions and the emotional outbursts that are forced to the extreme are all interpreted into three points.
Although the audience knew that this was a failing husband, many people said that watching the scene where Qin Hao cried, they still burst into tears at the same time, because Qin Hao performed, and the kind of reality that came to the face.
What new dad hasn't been forced to the point of speechlessness by the two big kids?
The rift between the male and female protagonists that is difficult to bridge also began at this time.
In addition to the male and female protagonists, Liu Lin, Li Qinqin, Yue Hong, the performances of these old drama bones, are all solid, it can be said that the collective performance of the texture of life, each role, an action, a look, with the true taste of life, and the true feelings of each character's emotions, this kind of thing, is called fireworks.
4. Authenticity: Art comes from life, and finally another domestic family drama has done it
Judging from the synopsis of the story, although the first six episodes are constantly conflicted, the real dramatic climax has just been uncovered.
Next, a child full moon feast in love with the male protagonist of the girl's scene, let the story usher in the first big climax, next, the story should appear the male protagonist divorce, reorganize the family, the child is sick.
Doctors recommend that another child be born and use the newborn's umbilical cord blood for bone marrow matching. In that original film, the ultimate torture of family ethics will also be put on display again.
At that time, after the audience is heartbroken and anxious, the tears may come out of their eyes unexpectedly.
But the creator did not put out this core plot point prematurely, but spent a lot of space to lay out the dilemmas faced by two families facing a fertility.
To lead the audience to think: what makes a pair of new parents become the most hated appearance in each other's hearts?
How did the two families get to this point?
Is it really what some viewers say, creating anxiety? But if life itself is so, is life worrying, or is the story creating anxiety?
If the original picture of real life is to create anxiety, then it is necessary to add a beautiful filter to the story?
Instead, I think that what the story really does is to puncture the fairy tale imagination of many viewers on fertility, and tell those novice parents that childbirth is really not such a simple thing.
Such a real plot is certainly congesting, but at least let the women who are about to become mothers have some psychological preparation, but also let the audience face the unqualified husband in reality, but also let the audience put themselves in the shoes of their other half more understanding and patience.
Domestic dramas do not lack a lot of family dramas that deliberately create dog blood routines and suspend inferior quality, but the real presentation of life is not to make dog blood, because marriage and childbearing should be treated with caution.
Isn't that what real life is all about? The novice couple couldn't help but hurt each other and lick each other's wounds.
Compared with idealized romance, those utopias that harbor our beautiful fantasies about marriage and childbearing. This drama is more like a "civilian parenting history" of ordinary people.
Today there are more and more television works with the label of realism. But what is the realism we expect?
It's not just about carrying hot searches and social news. Rather, it touches on you and me, the stories of ordinary people who are doing their best in life.
In the play, there is the husband played by Qin Hao, the new mother who is unreasonable and unforgiving like Ren Suxi, and the irresponsible mother-in-law, because there are also in life.
The storyline is sometimes "suffocating", because life can never escape the moments of the heart.
Marriage and childbearing without fairy tales is the norm of life.
The two families always feel that the other owes themselves, and they are more and more tightly bound in each other's entanglement. This is also the norm.
So "Dear Child", is there only anxiety?
But in my opinion, facing up to all the difficulties in fertility, including its cruelty, is the real respect for life.
Procreation will not only bring all kinds of anxiety, contradictions, and pains that are visible to the naked eye.
It is also those invisible slow but firm breakthroughs and explorations.
We can still trust small children.
But instead of believing in fairy tales, we believe in the contradictions and challenges that we face day after day under the reality, as well as the tenacity and courage not to be outsiders.
Finally, there is another domestic drama that can shoot the sincerity of facing life directly, and in marriage and childbirth, those who are warm, painful, suffocating, entangled, and tacitly silent, all shake under the sun at once.
A new generation of young people who feel anxious may be right.
Never marry for the sake of getting married, and have children for the sake of having children. But when you have a child, you have to take on the responsibilities of all your parents.
Anxiety? Reality will only be more anxious than the story. The red dust rolled and the ground was long.
True heroism is to see through the essence of life and still love life. For a new parent, having a child is the greatest heroism in life, because from the moment you conceive in October, you are the biggest hero in your child's life.
Such a domestic family drama, come to one, I watch one, even if the gas to the blood pressure soared, it is worth it.
