A few days ago, the family life drama "Dear Child" starring Qin Hao and Ren Suxi was broadcast on CCTV, and the two leading actors are acting strengths, plus this is a realistic theme, so Mr. Eight still has great expectations to chase it.
The first two episodes did not disappoint, whether it is the picture, the plot or the acting skills of the actors, they deserve to be praised.
Qin Hao and Ren Suxi play new parents. The opening shot is Ren Suxi removing makeup from the mirror, the whole scene does not have a line, but through the melasma on her face and the ultra-realistic pregnant belly, through the whole emotional change that she wants to cry at first but holds back for the sake of the child, barely smiling at the mirror, you can feel that this is a mother who sacrificed a lot for the child.
On this scene, few actresses in the internal entertainment can act so realistically, in one go, the true feelings are revealed, it is simply textbook acting.
In the first two episodes, Ren Suxi contributed several other acting scenes.
The tension before the heroine gives birth, the strength when giving birth, the weakness after giving birth, in Ren Suxi's state of being close to su yan, it is simply not too real, mr. eight have a feeling of immersive movie watching.
After giving birth, the child entered the hospital because the jaundice value exceeded the standard, and the heroine was originally complaining about the postpartum trivia when chatting with her girlfriend, but she choked up when she said it. In this scene, the director did not close up the tears on Ren Suxi's face, but from the choking in her lines, it can be felt that the heroine is really wronged.
The husband played by Qin Hao was not bad at the beginning, and the wife did whatever he wanted, but he belonged to the type of kicking and moving, and he was not very concerned about his wife and children. The most excessive thing is that on the night of his wife's birth, he actually chose to drink beer and watch ball games at home, missing the opportunity to accompany his wife into the delivery room.
The wife gets up to breastfeed at night and is very attentive to the children's eating and drinking, but the husband is very tired because he works during the day, and he only cares about sleeping at night. This is inevitably reminiscent of the real-life example of "widowed parenting", but in the play, this is not a matter of principle after all, if the husband is willing to change, he will not be able to take the step of divorce.
On the other hand, although the mother-in-law of the heroine is conservative in her thinking and feels that the placenta is supplemented, she lets the eldest son secretly take the daughter-in-law's placenta and intends to cook it for the younger son to eat. She is not bad, and the degree of strangeness is within a reasonable range.
The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law have a dispute, but also because the two generations are inconsistent in terms of living habits, parenting concepts, values, etc., and they are more realistic.
There is also a scene, the postpartum heroine is relatively weak, when she wants to drink water, no one except her mother understands her needs in time, and the mother-in-law, uncle and friends who come to visit all pay attention to the child, which is also a common thing in life.
Therefore, when watching the first two episodes, in the countless bullet screens discussing the plot, from time to time you can see some netizens lament that the plot is too real, as if they are spying on their lives.
But the further you look back, the more bloody the plot of "Dear Child" becomes.
First of all, after giving birth, the female protagonist fell into panic because of the sister-in-law's resignation, and the male protagonist entrusted his mother to take care of her, and the mother-in-law war began. Although the parenting problems in life are trivial, there is really no need to discuss two episodes of "can the mother-in-law smoke in front of the child" in a TV series, and each scene is quarreling, either the husband and wife quarrel, or the mother and son.
Smoking is not nothing, this mother-in-law in the granddaughter when watching others play mahjong, a careless did not pay attention to let the stroller slide down the slope, causing the granddaughter to fall to the ground, this is good, the heroine's mother also joined the quarrel camp, the family quarreled again. At the end of the quarrel, the heroine's mother also lived with the little two, and the contradictions in the family became more and more.
What's more, this strange mother-in-law also has a strange little son, a kind of mother who is still a mother treasure boy at an age, and who loses the ability to take care of herself when her mother is not at home. In order to escalate the contradictions of the family, the screenwriter forced this waste man to stay in the male and female masters' houses every day to let his mother take care of him on the grounds that he did not want to eat takeaway every day. Such a person, can other family members not complain?
Characters like the waste man are actually written by the screenwriter in order to stimulate the audience's emotions, no matter how lazy he is, his mother and brother tolerate him infinitely, which can be said to be meaningless except to make the audience angry.
The contradiction caused by the family under the same roof can no longer satisfy the screenwriter's desire to arouse the audience's scolding heart, so he sacrifices the "classic" plot that the audience has seen countless times - the male protagonist cheats. The crew also took this as a promotional point, afraid that the audience would not know that the show had a cheating plot.
The male protagonist has frequent contact with a female customer because of his work relationship, and the two eat street snacks together and press the road, and finally drink and have sex, and have a relationship.
The director and screenwriter know too well how to stimulate the audience, on the one hand, the child has a fever, the heroine and the mother are anxious to feed the child medicine, how to call the male protagonist's phone is not listened; on the other hand, the little three confessed to the male protagonist, want to be with him, the male protagonist refuses.
This female client is not a simple little three, she not only took intimate photos of her and the male protagonist privately, but also went to the 100-day feast of the daughter of the family to make trouble.
Seeing this, Mr. Eight was tired.
In society, there is not no widowed parenting, husband cheating, strange mother-in-law, and mother-in-law, but all kinds of phenomena are concentrated in one family, which is obviously the screenwriter spilling dog blood in order to stimulate the audience's emotions.
A realistic family drama should not only shoot the negative side of life. When a family welcomes the arrival of a new life, is there no warm moment?
The director and screenwriter made the whole play look less gray, and did not forget to add elements of idol drama.
After the male protagonist divorced the female protagonist, he immediately met love, and a young girl fell in love with him at first sight. The young girl is played by The9 member Xie Keyin, who is 19 years older than Qin Hao. In fact, looking at the poster, the two are already a bit like father and daughter, and watching them play a couple really can't move.
So I want to ask the screenwriter, such a role is so popular with young girls, is it to figure him out?
On the other hand, the heroine also has a good man who has been guarding her side, played by Nie Yuan.
In fact, "Dear Child" is adapted from the 2008 movie "Left and Right", the movie is about a divorced couple in order to save their daughter with leukemia through entanglements and choices, but a 2-hour movie expanded into a 34-episode TV series, must add a lot of original plot. But a good family drama, now has become four different, when talking about the trivial matters of new parenting, adding the clichéd mother-in-law contradiction, in order to follow the current also added cheating, small three and other elements, is completely in the pile of hot spots, can be called "hot search drama".
It is no wonder that the state media made such a comment after the broadcast of this drama: Such realistic film and television dramas have been sparing no effort to push the "accidents" and special cases in reality to the audience, so that they will not hesitate to let the protagonists divorce, unemployment and even "forced" widowhood, in addition to earning the audience's tears and sighs, can it really have a deeper role?
