The 87th edition of "Dream of the Red Chamber" and the 10th edition of "Dream of the Red Chamber" were both filmed in three years, but the achievements were worlds apart. The 87th edition of "Dream of the Red Chamber" is a recognized classic, more than 30 years later, it is still enduring, and the 10th edition of "Dream of the Red Chamber" has been criticized by everyone. Li Shaohong once said: "Everyone is a remake of a famous book, there is no comparison, we just make the famous book "Dream of the Red Chamber" more plump. ”
Whether it is from the script actors or costume props, the details of the 87 version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" are perfect, satisfying all people's imagination of the original work, which is incomparable to the new version of "Dream of the Red Chamber". Let's say that the scene of "Bao Dai's first meeting", not to mention the scene, lens, actors, costumes, etc., just look at the eyes of Dai Yu when she first sees Bao Yu, Chen Xiaoxu and Jiang Mengjie's interpretation is completely different.
The 87 version of Dai Yu first saw Bao Yu, is timid, there is a kind of shyness of a little daughter, the eyes are subtle and introverted, very in line with the identity of the ancient woman, and the new version of Dai Yu saw Bao Yu, although there is also a bowed head and shy action, the eyes are directly looking, there is no half subtlety and shyness.
The contrast between the two is obvious, this is not a simple eye problem, there is a deep meaning behind it. Women in the ancient feudal family, in the environment of male superiority and female inferiority, are very conservative in their thinking, and their eyes are shy, timid, and introverted, while modern girls advocate equality between men and women, their personalities fly wantonly, their eyes are bold, and they are exposed.
Therefore, the eyes of the actors and the ancient women's low eyebrows and pleasing eyes are very different, the 87 version of the "Dream of the Red Chamber" crew makeup artist Yang Shuyun, on the crew of all the actresses above the ears are braided up a small braid to hang up, so that there is a gentle, introverted shyness of the ancient women, the kind of timidity, meekness and softness in the eyes, looking particularly comfortable.
The new version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" has not considered this problem at all, all the actors in the play are bold and direct,and they all laugh, and even the most basic "laughter without teeth" of ancient women has not been considered, let alone other details. Therefore, the new version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" and the 87 version have a difference between cloud and mud, and cannot be compared at all.
