The domestic drama market has the widest audience, and the theme that can best grasp the audience is——
Period drama.
That's right, whether it is a young audience who is keen on idol dramas or countless old drama fans, and no matter what a small branch, as long as it touches the edge of the era, it can always get extremely high ratings or discussion booms.
In business, there are "Chicken Feathers Fly to the Sky" through five levels and six to get the grand prize, and "Great Rivers" has two successive word-of-mouth explosions.
Revolutionary theme, "Age of Awakening" was sealed in World War I, the family drama "Golden Wedding" is often new, and even realism is supported by "The World".
Pick and choose, there's always a dish for you.
However, this year, period dramas are always a little bit less interesting, the summer file is about to end, is this year like this?
Don't worry, CCTV has shot again -
"The Glory of Fathers" was officially announced and will meet the audience on CCTV's set of prime time tomorrow night, and will be broadcast exclusively on the whole network of Goose Factory.
The last hesitation of this summer vacation, it can be seen that CCTV has released a trump card, in the end, can it add another fierce general to the good drama of the era -
The show is about to begin.
In period dramas, the audience's most concerned is always the production team. This kind of theme is not like other works, no matter how good the actor must also have a good book support, whether it is details or setting, lens language must have life experience, as well as an experienced team.
And the reason why "Glory of the Fathers" is so valued is also related to its very strong production team.
Director Kang Honglei should not need to say more, although "Soldier Assault", "My Regiment Commander My Regiment" and "The Burning Years of Passion" are mainly military, the rich atmosphere of the era exuded by them is also one of the reasons why people feel very deep.
Besides, Director Kang's shaping of group portraits and sharply ridiculed language art is absolutely unique in the entire drama circle, and it is really perfect to match the theme of the era.
And Zhao Dongling's screenwriter, far from it, "Police Honor" and "Happiness to Ten Thousand Homes" two dramas can be invincible.
These two styles are indeed very similar, and the pursuit of depicting life in warmth and peace, "Glory of Fathers" is difficult not to be popular.
"The Glory of Fathers" focuses on the forestry of the northeast, rarely showing the decline of forestry in the late 90s to the public.
With Gu Changshan (Guo Tao) and his family as the protagonists, it is mixed with the living conditions of the team members. When the ecological and environmental problems become increasingly severe and forestry begins to "reduce production, restrict logging, and lay off jobs," these little people at the bottom face the problem of "going out" and "staying."
It is clear that this mountain forest has become the target of everyone because of felling——
"When I took you into the forest, chopping and sawing, watching one tree after another fall, I did not leave blessings for future generations."
But isn't the mission of forestry workers to cut down trees, can't go up mountains, can't cut down trees? After working for half a life, it became a joke overnight.
What's the difference between this and "waste"?
What I once believed, do I want to stay and stick to now——
Some people guard the old forest, watching the bustle of people coming and going, and some people rushing for fate to leave this small place with no future early.
Stay, have a family, have a dream, but you can't see a way to live.
Going out, wandering, stumbling and also not seeing the light of the road of life, how to choose is a word "difficult".
Although the name is the glory of "fathers", this drama also vividly shows the thinking methods and life choices of the two generations of fathers and children.
It seems to be innovation and traditional PK, but in fact, it is the struggle of small people in the development of the wave of the times, each generation is facing different choices and dilemmas, don't say, it's really a little looking forward to it!
Remember the period drama "Parental Love" that made the audience miss it for 9 years and was invincible. Now that Guo Tao and Liu Lin are working together again, the plot is more profound and realistic, and may really surpass "Parental Love".
1. Guo Tao
I dare say that there are really few middle-aged male stars who are more suitable for acting in period dramas than Guo Tao.
Whether it is a soldier who has been on the battlefield, a peasant who backs the mountains, or a conscientious forestry worker, Guo Tao's uncarved simplicity from the inside out is definitely not played by others.
In "The Glory of Fathers", Guo Tao plays the head of the family, Gu Changshan, who is also a very powerful little head in the work team.
Through a few previews, I really saw the characteristics of my father's generation of northeasterners in Gu Changshan——
To save face, be kind and righteous, and even swallow it in the stomach so that the brother can break his teeth.
Guo Tao played Gu Changshan's purity to the extreme, and he was in the state of a worker, especially his unkempt hairstyle and dark face, which instantly entered the play.
2. Liu Lin
49-year-old Liu Lin has really lived a clear stream of internal entertainment, and I have never seen any middle-generation actress who can have no image baggage like her.
I thought that Teckwah in "Parental Love" was the limit, but I didn't expect it to be just a small beginning.
"Do You Know If It Should Be Green Fat Red Thin" is a clever big lady, when everyone breaks their heads to rush out of the team playing "mother", Liu Lin can even form a CP with 60-year-old Fan Wei in "The Long Season".
This time, Liu Lin and Guo Tao became two couples in the play, and as soon as they appeared, the image of a woman who worked hard and experienced the vicissitudes of life but was tolerant and kind was about to come out.
There are not many scenes between the two people in the short film, but Liu Lin's only two shots almost tell all the bitterness and complaints of his wife marrying Gu Changshan.
3. Zhang Wanyi
It is worthy of being from Nortel's graduation class, and when everyone is fighting a "traffic" war, Zhang Wanyi is looking for another way.
From the famous scene of "The Age of Awakening", to the silly apprentice who fell in love with the master in "Children of the Qiao Family", to the summer blockbuster "Sauvignon Blanc", Zhang Wanyi's sense of existence in the play is actually not so high every time, but it can make the audience impressed.
This time, he played Chen Xingjie, who was adopted by Gu Changshan, and there were not many shots in the trailer, but the sadness of the death of his loved ones and the difficulty of choosing fate at a fork in his life were extremely well acted.
I don't know what kind of sparks will collide with Guo Tao and Liu Lin.
In addition, there are Zhang Yue, the actor of Lin Youyou in "Thirty Only", Zhou Fang, the actor of "Big River 2", and the male advocate Kaitai of "Zeng Boy" who joined strongly.
epilogue
It is more surprising that in recent years, film and television dramas about the northeast have emerged one after another, such as the word-of-mouth "The World", "The Long Season", and the hit "Burning Winter" and so on.
And "The Glory of Fathers" takes Northeast forestry as the theme, which may cause the memories of many audiences in Northeast China, and also let each region see a different eastern province.
Director Kang Honglei has not shown his skills for too long, and the "Zhang Fuqing" unit that previously cooperated with Guo Tao in "Merit" received rave reviews, but the splash of "Father's Steppe Mother's River" on CCTV, which is also on star CCTV, is not big.
"Life is like a tree, the seasons are impermanent."
The new drama sees the big from the small, portrays an era with a family, and uses "trees" as a metaphor for life, which shows that Director Kang really exerts his strength.
This time, whether he can return to his peak and watch "The Glory of His Fathers"!
-END-
Are you looking forward to this show?
