Huang Bo, who was almost driven crazy by Cao Baoping, returned to the peak of his acting skills with "Wading through the Sea of Anger".
There have been many films released in theaters recently, but the most popular and discussed movie is "Wading Through the Sea of Anger" starring Huang Bo and Zhou Xun. This movie, which is criticized by all the members, is worthy of the last chapter of Cao Baoping's "Burning Heart Series", with extremely impactful pictures, extremely crazy characters, revenge madness, and fierce emotional collisions, just like the "fish rain" that fell from the sky, chaotic, dark, desperate, and crazy.
The whole movie begins with the angry revenge of a grassroots single father. Lao Jin, who relied on going out to sea to fish to earn money to support his daughter Nana and himself, and for his daughter to study in Japan, suddenly suffered the biggest blow in his life - Nana died and was stabbed 17 times!
Which father can stand this!
Lao Jin, a tough guy fisherman who was born in the military, is naturally even more desperate and angry. In order to find the murderer suspect and Nana's boyfriend Li Miaomiao, Lao Jin didn't even bother to attend his daughter's funeral, so he embarked on the road of revenge with full of anger.
In the process of looking for Li Miaomiao, Lao Jin, a tough father, met an equally strong mother - Li Miaomiao's mother Jing Lan.
In stark contrast to Lao Jin, a small person at the bottom, is Jing Lan, a woman from the upper class. This woman looks elegant and polite, and has a decent upbringing, but what is revealed in her bones is contempt for Lao Jin, arrogance and indifference to all rules and regulations, her son's bastard behavior, and even illegal and criminal behavior.
As a result, a tough father who is eager for revenge and angry starts a crazy and fierce confrontation with a strong mother who thinks she can control the overall situation.
Actors Huang Bo and Zhou Xun also gave everyone a wonderful performance of the year full of incisive tension, so that the audience couldn't help but follow the characters and stories and immerse themselves in it.
At the same time, another crazy criticism story between two young people is also staged in another time and space.
Jin Lina, who is extremely lacking in love, has a pleasing personality, desire to control and masochistic tendencies, and Li Miaomiao, a sociopathic boy with a natural evil child gene, cruel and cold-blooded, and likes to enjoy perverted torture, met and fell in love and killed each other, and finally, in order to prove her love for him to Li Miaomiao, Jin Lina stabbed herself 17 times.
Li Miaomiao fled in fright when Jin Lina stabbed her first (crazy criticism shocked even more crazy criticism), Jin Lina stabbed herself 17 times, and hid in the hotel's narrow closet, just like when her father went to sea when she was afraid at home alone, she hid in the closet.
The sunflowers that Jin Lina drew with her bloody fingers on the cupboard before her death are an indictment of her lack of love in life, and also a call for the blood of her parents' affection that she has lacked since childhood.
The story of a crazy father avenging his daughter turns into a bloody indictment of the harm to his original family.
Such a large turn, some viewers said that they were very shocked and touched by their hearts, and some viewers said that the transition was too big and difficult to accept.
But no matter how you look at and think about the theme of this movie, the audience who has watched "Wading in the Sea of Anger" will be stimulated by the sharp and heart-burning style of the film without exception, and shocked by the actors' extremely "crazy" performances, especially the performances and confrontations of actor Huang Bo and actress Zhou Xun, which can be called hearty, allowing the audience to witness a wonderful plot picture that can be called "the best confrontation scene of the year".
Good guy, worthy of Cao Baoping! With such a director who pursues the ultimate film art, he can force out the ultimate acting skills of the actor and actress!
A few days ago, when Huang Bo was a guest on Tencent News and asked about the interview with "Wading through the Angry Sea", he talked about the experience of cooperation with the director of the film, Cao Baoping.
Huang Bo said that they all called the director "Cao Baocrazy" because Director Cao was "extremely greedy and greedy" for his works.
As the screenwriter and director of the film, Cao Baoping already had an inner framework and setting for the work before filming, but he still wanted to "ask for more" from the actors, hoping to force the actors to the extreme, so that they could collide with more wonderful acting skills and sparks.
Huang Bo talked about an incident that was on the hot search during the filming. It's just that "he vomited the director." ”
When filming the fishing boat scene, director Cao Baoping was the most seasick person in the entire crew, but he still vomited while standing next to the camera to watch the guidance. When Huang Bo finished the performance and came over to ask the director how he was filming, the director was seasick and couldn't help but vomit on the spot, so there was a hot search "Huang Bo threw up the director".
As a tens of billions of actors, Huang Bo has dedicated many wonderful screen characters to the public.
Many people's initial impression of Huang Bo may have started with the grassroots character "Black Skin" in "Crazy Stone".
But in fact, as early as 2000 before "Crazy Stone", Huang Bo had an excellent performance in his screen debut "Get in the car, let's go".
In 2009, Huang Bo starred in the movie "Bullfighting", which can be said to be the "masterpiece" of Huang Bo's performance history, and then in the movie "Killing", Huang Bo contributed wonderful acting skills.
But in recent years, many viewers feel that Huang Bo's acting skills have become somewhat patterned and stagnant, and his performances in the movie "Mozart in Outer Space" and the TV series "The Right Way to Open Your Life" have not caused any splashes, and even the audience complained that "I have been in my comfort zone for a long time".
When an actor has mastered the routines of acting and has reached the peak of acting, how should he take the next road of acting?
In the interview, Huang Bo also euphemistically talked about this issue. He said, indeed, for some helpless reasons over the years, I have had to take on some roles that have not made any breakthroughs, and I am familiar with acting, without freshness, breakthrough and keenness. Naturally, with such a character, the audience does not have any passion and freshness when they look at it.
Huang Bo said that of course, actors want to encounter particularly challenging fresh works and meet powerful directors who can "force" themselves, so as to stimulate the potential of actors and activate their endocrine and hormones.
Indeed it is. Middle-aged powerful actors like Huang Bo , Zhou Xun , as well as Zu Feng , Yan Ni, they have no shortage of acting skills, they do not lack the spirit of working hard for their roles, what they lack is good movies and good roles that can allow them to give full play to their acting skills and even play the energy they don't even know.
The audience has complained that there have been fewer and fewer good movies and good TV series in recent years, on the contrary, there are more and more standard templated empty works manufactured by industrial assembly lines, so many actors with acting skills, especially middle-aged actors, have really been wasted.
They can't find a vibrant role, so they can only take on some roles that are either painless or embarrassing and funny, or they are wronged in those exaggerated and floating urban dramas, playing the role of a father or mother, or even the role of grandparents. These roles don't need to use acting skills, for them, it's tantamount to killing chickens with a knife.
Fortunately, there are also sharp and thoughtful works like "Wading in the Sea of Anger", which can give the participating actors the opportunity to show their acting skills to the fullest.
This year, Huang Bo has participated in 4 movies, the hip-hop coach in "Warm", Jiang Ziya in "Fengshen Part 1", the chicken baby father in "Learning Dad", and the revenge father in "Wading through the Sea of Wrath".
It can be seen that Huang Bo's role types in each film are different, but whether it is Ding Lei, the head of the hip-hop dance troupe in "Warm", Jiang Ziya in "Fengshen", and the chicken-blooded father in "Dad", they have not departed from Huang Bo's performance comfort zone, nor have they departed from Huang Bo's most familiar performance element - the comedy factor.
But "Wading Through the Sea of Anger" once again made everyone see the stubbornness, strength, and stubbornness of Huang Bo who was a representative of the grassroots little people back then, and there was more sadness and despair, and the grassroots Huang Bo, who had vitality in the past, is back!
Today's actors, both idols and powerful actors, Huang Bo smiled and said that he was a "physical force". From "Crazy Stone" to "Crazy Racing", "Bullfighting", "Killing" and then to this "Wading through the Angry Sea", Huang Bo has been trying his best and running hard.
As the saying goes, good actors and good works are mutually beneficial. Film and television dramas that can allow actors to leave their familiar performance comfort zone and "run" can allow actors to rediscover their acting potential and regain their vitality and vitality.
Fighting on the boat, chasing on the subway, running on the roof, jumping off the building, and fighting madly in the dim rain of fish, Huang Bo, who is already middle-aged, seems to have transformed into a "Kung Fu Jackie Chan" in "Angry Sea", and fought hard for the role.
What is more laborious than these physically exhausting performances is actually the emotional scenes in the film. Lao Jin in the film is a complex character, facing complex situations and torture, how to peel off Lao Jin's complex emotions layer by layer and successfully interpret them will test Huang Bo's acting skills.
Not only Huang Bo is like this, but Zhou Xun in "Angry Sea" is also a good actor who has been delayed. Everyone says that Zhou Xun is an actor with aura, and Huang Bo also praised his friend Zhou Xun for being a particularly emotional actor, saying that Zhou Xun belongs to a good actor who gives her different stimulation and she will give you different reactions.
Huang Bo smiled and said, don't look at Zhou Xun's delicate appearance, her small body has a lot of energy.
Indeed, Zhou Xun in "Angry Sea" is petite and elegant in appearance, but in fact, he is very strong, courageous and strategic, and he is a she-wolf, a crazy she-wolf.
There was a hot search on the Internet before, saying that Zhou Xun asked Huang Bo to "drag me away like a garbage bag".
Originally, the scene was Huang Bo taking Zhou Xun out of the sea, but Zhou Xun thought that she was the mother of Huang Bo's enemy, and Lao Jin played by Huang Bo was a rough character, and it was more realistic and accurate to "drag her out" than to hold her out, so he took the initiative to ask Huang Bo to drag her out of the sea.
"Wading in the Sea of Wrath" is a film with many flaws, but at least, it achieves a sharp, unique and thought-provoking style, and such a script and film also fully mobilize the subjective initiative of the actors.
I hope that there will be more film and television works with personality and thinking, and there will be more, which can be imperfect, but at least it can make the actors "come alive", so that the audience can be touched and think after watching it.
