Liu Sanjie is a figure in The folklore of the Zhuang ethnic group in China. In 1961, the movie "Liu Sanjie", based on the legend of Liu Sanjie, was put on the screen by the long film studio and was warmly sought after by several generations of audiences.
The beauty of the story, the beauty of the characters, the beauty of the landscape, and the beauty of the music of this movie will be remembered by almost all the audiences who have seen it. Some movie fans, one person has watched more than forty times, which shows how obsessed they are with it.
And Huang Wanqiu, who played Liu Sanjie in the film, also became a hit because of this film, becoming a big star who was red to purple, and the idols and goddesses in the hearts of generations, and the personal growth trajectory also changed. Therefore, all her life, she is very grateful for the good luck brought by the movie "Liu Sanjie" to herself.
But you know what? The original heroine candidate for the movie "Liu Sanjie" was not Huang Wanqiu, but there were three candidates. One is Fu Jinhua of the Guangxi Color Tune Theater Troupe, one is Yin Xi of the Guangxi Gui Opera Troupe, and the other is Huang Xiaoman of the Guangxi Repertory Theatre.
Among these three people, everyone is more optimistic about Fu Jinhua, who has become famous for playing Liu Sanjie in Guangxi, so she specially made a sample film for her.
Huang Wanqiu, who was only 17 years old at the time, was only the actor of Zhoumei.
However, after the audition, some people felt that Fu Jinhua's mouth was too big and not very good on the screen, so it was recommended to change people. At this time, someone proposed to find Yang Likun, who had just finished acting in "Five Golden Flowers" and became popular. However, Guangxi said that "Liu Sanjie" is a fine product in Guangxi, so the actor should still be looking for it in Guangxi. In this way, Huang Wanqiu, who was originally scheduled to play Zhoumei, entered the eyes of the main creative staff because she was young and beautiful, and there was the Huang Wanqiu version of Liu Sanjie that we saw.
Fu Jinhua served as most of Liu Sanjie's backing vocals.
Although this incident was arranged by the film crew, for Fu Jinhua, the blow was still not small. Especially after the release of the movie "Liu Sanjie", Huang Wanqiu, who was originally unknown, became a blockbuster and soared into the sky, becoming a big star in the spotlight. The audience that knows Fu Jinhua is very limited.
However, Fu Jinhua was still strong, but because of the problem of personal image, he missed the opportunity to become a big red. I think anyone, when encountering such a situation, will be a little unconvinced, right?
Moreover, now we look at Fu Jinhua's photo, and her image is not unpretty. Of course, compared with Huang Wanqiu, there are some changes in temperament.
I think in Fu Jinhua's heart, there must be a wish, that is, in his lifetime, he can play Liu Sanjie on the screen once.
This wish was finally fulfilled in 1978 when she was 40 years old.
Thus, there is this version of "Liu Sanjie" that we are talking about today. In order to distinguish it from the 1961 version starring Huang Wanqiu, we call this version of "Liu Sanjie" the color tone version.
In fact, this version of "Liu Sanjie" does move Guangxi color drama from the stage to the screen, similar to opera films.
So compared to the 1961 feature film version, it was stylistically different.
First of all, the two films have a difference in story.
Although it tells the legend of Liu Sanjie, what is different from the 1961 version of "Liu Sanjie" is that the color tone version of "Liu Sanjie", on the basis of retaining the classic bridge sections such as the three sisters fighting Mo Rich Lord, the third sister and the acid Xiucai song, has also added many additional characters and storylines.
For example, in this version of "Liu Sanjie", her brother has been with her sister since he appeared. And in the play they also have an extra grandmother. And Brother Ah Niu is not the son of an old fisherman, but a handsome and brave hunter boy in the village, named Li Xiaoniu.
In this version, the scene where the rich man Mo Huairen threatens the third sister to marry him has been added.
They first asked the matchmaker to come to the door to propose to them, and promised gold and silver treasures, but they were sternly refused by the third sister and The little calf and others. Then he blackmailed the third sister and the villagers by asking for rent and asking for land. In order to save everyone, the third sister agreed to the request for song put forward by the rich lord Mo, and through her clever brain and moving singing voice, she won the song contest with the three acid Xiucai.
However, Mo Huairen rebelled, and even colluded with the government to strictly prohibit the singing of mountain songs again, and wanted to murder Liu Sanjie. With the help of the villagers, Liu Sanjie fooled Mo Huairen with the Ecstasy Array, causing Mo Huairen to be ugly.
In the end, Liu Sanjie and Li Xiaoniu bid farewell to the villagers and went to other places to pass on songs.
To be honest, the biggest highlight of this movie is the original color tone singing voice, and the other is the starring Fu Jinhua.
Here, we may wish to give you a popular science about what is a color drama?
Commonly known as tones, color tune dramas, color lanterns, which are local traditional dramas in Guangxi, and belong to one of the national intangible cultural heritage.
Color tones first evolved from folk songs, dances and raps into "pairs of sub-tones". Originally, Guilin, Liuzhou and Yishan were the main circulation areas, and continued to spread outward.
After the founding of New China, color tones have developed rapidly. In 1955, the Guangxi Literary and Art Cadre School opened a color adjustment training class and trained a large number of outstanding young actors, of which Fu Jinhua was one of the best.
In 1959, the Liuzhou Color Tune Theater Troupe choreographed and performed the color tune drama "Liu Sanjie", which was warmly welcomed by the audience and contributed to the improvement of the color tone art.
In 2006, the color tune was approved by the State Council of the People's Republic of China to be included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage list, and the heritage number is IV.-76.
The film "Liu Sanjie", filmed in 1978, showed us the unique charm of Guangxi color drama.
And the heroine's actor Fu Jinhua finally realized his wish to play Liu Sanjie on the screen.
It's just the effect, not particularly ideal.
Fu Jinhua's performance is very skillful and there are no problems. The key issue is still the external image.
At this time, Fu Jinhua, who is middle-aged, is not not unpretty, but a person who is nearly 40 years old, and it is indeed a little embarrassing to play a little girl again.
So the Liu Sanjie we see in this movie always feels that something is missing.
And what is interesting is that the 1961 version of "Liu Sanjie" was sung by Fu Jinhua to Huang Wanqiu, and this time Fu Jinhua played Liu Sanjie, and there were other actors to sing for her.
However, it is worth mentioning that several supporting actors in this version of "Liu Sanjie" have a very impressive impression on me, such as the actor who plays the matchmaker, there are not many scenes, but the performance is humorous and funny, and it is quite local, so it is very brilliant.
Other characters, such as Li Xiaoniu's actor, the old fisherman's actor, grandma's actor, Mo Huairen's actor, Mo Butler's actor, etc., also have good performances.
It's just that it's a stage movie, so there aren't many audiences who have seen it. There are even many friends who have not heard of this version of "Liu Sanjie", right?
And in the past years, the play "Liu Sanjie" must have been deeply rooted in everyone's mind, right? In everyone's memory, which bridge section and which singing is the most memorable? Welcome to interact with more friends through the message area.
