With a "maid" look, but you have to play the "first beauty", whose aesthetic problem is wrong?
The "2023 Chinese Film and Television Night" held by the main station staged a tribute to the classics. The team, composed of famous hosts, actors and journalists, re-portrayed the newly compiled fragments of "Dream of Red Mansions".
The original intention of the tribute shows the development milestones of domestic dramas, but at the same time, it also reminds the film and television industry once again that the reshaping of "classics" is far from being as simple as copying rigid ones.
Just when the audience once again affirmed that the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions" could no longer be surpassed, the news that the film version of "Dream of Red Mansions" was about to be launched shocked everyone.
It is reported that "Dream of Red Mansions: Golden Jade Good Fortune" (hereinafter referred to as the new film version of "Dream of Red Mansions") started casting as early as 17 years, and the actors who starred in the play are still unknown new faces.
The film selected 80 people to audition in the early stage, launched a closed training period of six months, and officially started shooting in July 18, but this movie, which consumed a lot of work behind the scenes, was backlogged for 5 years before the news of the warm-up came out.
The point is that 5 years have passed, and from the perspective of casting alone, it is more difficult for this film to gain word of mouth.
Pearl jade in front, 87 version has become the ceiling
In fact, the 10th version of "Dream of Red Mansions" is already an excellent answer, and the development of all the actors in the play today can see the casting strength of this drama.
Yang Yang, who once shaped the role of Baoyu, has become an enduring strength in the flow. In the domestic entertainment where traffic changes so rapidly, Yang Yang is exporting film and television dramas every year and creating explosive hits. Last year's "You Are My Glory" is Yang Yang's another explosive hit after "A Slight Smile is Very Alluring".
In the 10th version, Jiang Mengjie, who played Lin Daiyu, and Li Qin, who portrayed Xue Baochai, are all young actors that the audience is familiar with.
But it's a pity that even such a trump card configuration does not affect the 10th version of "Dream of Red Mansions" being devalued worthless in comparison with the 87th version.
Lin Daiyu played by Chen Xiaoxu and Jia Baoyu portrayed by Ouyang Fenqiang have become ceiling-level existences, they not only have excellent acting skills, full of aura, but also in terms of appearance and temperament like the characters cut out in the original work, when interpreting the role, they have done it to let the audience go up.
The actor configuration of the new film version of "Dream of Red Mansions" is currently difficult to catch up with the 10th version, let alone the classic 87 version.
The appearance is average, the acting skills are immature, and the strength of the new film version of "Dream of Red Mansions" interprets closed-eye casting
The new film version of "Dream of Red Mansions" has been backlogged for 5 years, if the casting of this movie is really a glimpse, in 5 years, the actors in the movie should also gain a foothold in the entertainment industry. But obviously, the leading actors of the new film version of "Dream of Red Mansions" are more like their own insufficient conditions than late bloomers.
The side of shaping Jia Baoyu is still quite popular in domestic entertainment, and the "Wind Rising Neon Clothes" and "Qingping Le" he has starred in are very popular, but unfortunately his sense of existence is not strong, either there are too few scenes, or the character is too secondary.
More importantly, the actor Bian Cheng has an idol face, also handsome and handsome, Ouyang Fenqiang and Yang Yang are both hard and delicate, but Bian Cheng is more like a singing and dancing love bean on the stage, good looking is good-looking, but less of the charm of the ancients.
However, compared with Jia Baoyu's casting, the suitability of the actress and characters in the new film version of "Dream of Red Mansions" is a real disaster.
5 years ago, Guan Xiaotong was still a girl, although her appearance was exquisite, but she had the temperament of a Beijing chick. It is precisely because of this that the roles that Guan Xiaotong is good at are relatively mean and stubborn types.
Like the rebellious girl in "Mr. Good" and the big beauty Liang Shuang in "Twenty Not Confused", they are all relatively self-centered characters.
And such Guan Xiaotong and Jia Yuanchun, who was elected to the palace as a virtuous and bright Shude in the original work, are clearly two extremes.
5 years ago, Guan Xiaotong was difficult to perform a graceful and luxurious sissy aura in terms of acting skills, and her appearance was completely different from the image of the original book. Shaping Jia Yuanchun by Guan Xiaotong is obviously not a suitable choice.
And the more outrageous casting than Guan Xiaotong is to let the newcomer actor who looks like a maid shape Lin Daiyu, the soul character in "Dream of Red Mansions".
The maid plays the "first beauty", naked aesthetic degradation
In the original work, Lin Daiyu's appearance description is quite moving. Her face is timid, but she has a natural amorous attitude, her temperament is beautiful and quiet, and her tears are shining and her breath is slight. These atmospheric temperaments have nothing to do with the facial features, but have higher requirements in temperament.
As for the description of "smoke eyebrows", "affectionate", peerless appearance, rare and handsome, Shiyun's description of "Ying'er talent should be rare in the world", it proves that Lin Daiyu has the first beauty of the country, and has a beauty that makes people unable to open their eyes.
And Chen Xiaoxu, who played Lin Daiyu in the 87th version, has this sense of atmosphere in every move, so the audience regards the Lin Daiyu she created as a classic.
But Zhang Miaoyi, the actor who played Lin Daiyu in the new film version of "Dream of Red Mansions", although she is also a beauty, is a typical sweet route, which is more suitable for film and television works full of idol sense. Netizens' evaluations of the newcomer actor are also negative and unfavorable.
In Please! Don't Pet Me" in the costume drama, the heroine Yan Yiyi created by actor Zhang Miaoyi has a lively personality, eccentric, nerves and many life-filled characters.
No matter the character's character or actor Zhang Miaoyi's posture in ancient costume, it is a completely detached image. The role that looks strong in this way does not match the temperament of the sick Lin Daiyu, and the appearance conditions of actor Zhang Miaoyi herself have no memory points in the entertainment industry.
In her various stills, it is not difficult to find that Zhang Miaoyi's eyes are very large, but the presence of her nose and mouth is very weak, the entire face is slightly white, and there are no characteristics at all when styling in ancient costumes.
Especially when Zhang Miaoyi blooms a smile, her face shape and facial features even have a little more Internet celebrity, at first glance, it is at most the maid next to the heroine in the costume drama, and there is no heroine who let the audience glance into the pit.
Compared with the 87 version, perhaps Wang Miaoyi is beautiful, but she is beautiful without characteristics.
It is not difficult to see in the blurry exposure picture of the new film version of "Dream of Red Mansions" that her big face plate on the big screen is wide and wide, her facial features have lost their sense of delicacy, and the maid on her face is even worse than ordinary passers-by, and it is difficult for the audience not to doubt whose aesthetic level is wrong when choosing Wang Miaoyi to shape Lin Daiyu.
And in Wang Miaoyi's new drama "When I Fly to You", her acting level is limited to the youth campus drama of committing idiots. Sometimes even the most basic lines are vague and rhythmic.
These are not highly compatible with the role of Lin Daiyu, and there are obvious flaws, which are the parts that the audience cannot accept.
Of course, the movie has been backlogged for so long, and it is already Amitabha Buddha to be able to go online. As for the effect of the movie, although I dare not assert, I feel that it is destined to be higher than the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions".
