Ma Lilei Jiayin's performance kept Zhang Yimou excited every day, and he opened the blind box on the set every day
Recently, many viewers have discovered one thing, we have all been "deceived" by the movie "Article 20" directed by Zhang Yimou, which is obviously a comedy reality movie, but many people think it is a pure tragedy.
Why it's said to be a comedy, just look at the cast
Following last year's Spring Festival movie "Man Jianghong" won a box office of 4.544 billion, Zhang Yimou seems to have opened up the second vein of Ren Du, perhaps because he has more joy to cooperate with comedians.
Take a closer look at the previous cast of "Man Jianghong", Shen Teng, Yue Yunpeng, Pan Binlong, Lei Jiayin and Guo Jingfei, etc., whether it is a work or a variety show, they are all serious and funny comedians.
As a result, a movie full of serious colors, making fun in the midst of suffering, came out with a different taste.
This year, director Zhang Yimou still follows the previous model, with actors paired with some comedians, and then completes this work.
In "Article 20", the protagonists have become Lei Jiayin and Ma Li this time, and when they talk about these two people, they feel full of laughter.
Not to mention Pan Binlong, Fan Wei, Qiao Shan, Xu Wenhe, as well as Jiang Shimeng and Song Muzi who came out of the comedy competition.
At first glance, it is in line with its comedy style, and Zhang Yi, a funny and unaware powerful actor, with many old actors, this lineup is very powerful at first glance.
Ma Li and Lei Jiayin supported most of the laughter of this movie, and director Zhang Yimou opened the blind box every day when he came to the scene
Many highlights of the movie are in the family of Ma Li, Lei Jiayin and Liu Yaowen, and Lei Jiayin and Ma Li have a lot of improvisational performances, and because of this, there are also many famous scenes of laughter contributed by the two.
Ma Li and Lei Jiayin are both from the Northeast, and the Northeast people themselves have strong language talents, and they have their own jokes, and because of this, the first cooperation between the two is also very tacit.
The Northeast people are full of sparks in the collision of lines, so director Zhang Yimou is more about improvising the two, and because of nature, what comes out is more real.
And the thing that the director is most excited about is the opening of the blind box of the actors' lines, so that they can improvise the words, not only Ma Lilei Jiayin, but later Zhang Yi made a cameo, Chen Minghao came, and the director also used the same way.
The other actors were a little stunned when they first came, but they didn't expect the director to let them collide on the spot, Zhang Yi's famous scene should be the scene with Ma Li at the dinner table, directly smashing the cup and smashing the mobile phone, looking at the atmosphere is very grim.
And through this movie, Ma Li also said that she saw a self she didn't know before, and she didn't expect her comedy talent to be tapped so thoroughly.
Sister-in-law "Gao Ye" plays Lei Jiayin's ex-girlfriend in the play, and when she plays against Ma Li Lei Jiayin, she is often amused by them, but she often holds back her laughter, because she can't laugh, she is still filming.
For this role,
赵丽颖
Break through your own ceiling
There are laughs and tears, although this movie is said to be a comedy movie, its plot is more close to the people, and it also picks up several events closely related to the people to interpret.
The core of comedy is tragedy, Li Maojuan's family laughed with tears, but a large part of the tragedy in the movie comes from the couple played by Zhao Liying and Pan Binlong who live on the fringes of society.
Zhao Liying plays the hearing-impaired mother Hao Xiuping in it, in order to better complete this role, Zhao Liying used some careful thinking and deliberately did not let herself hear it.
Zhao Liying herself is a person who talks less, and she specially wore earplugs on the set, just to make herself more silent.
Later, when other people on the set talked to her, they were willing to communicate in sign language, and Zhao Liying knew that she was half the battle, because she successfully brought others into her world.
Director Zhang Yimou also praised Zhao Liying's performance: "She didn't speak on the scene, and she was always looking for the state of the character." In this performance, she broke through her ceiling and was no longer the Zhao Liying of the past. ”
As Zhao Liying's husband Pan Binlong, when he saw the trailer, he realized that this movie was so fun, but when he thought about his role, it was obviously a crying scene.
Pan Binlong just appeared in a big crying scene, and then he was arrested for manslaughter, and there was also a big crying scene in the interrogation room, and later met Zhao Liying, and both of them were crying scenes.
I feel that the tragic part is concentrated in Hao Xiuping's family, and there are at least some comedy parts in other stories, and this family is pure tragedy.
Nowadays, more people go into the cinema to watch this movie, laughing with tears, some sigh for the experience of Hao Xiuping's family, and what is even more sad is that this is all adapted from a true story, in real life, this case will only be more cruel.
As director Zhang Yimou said: The story of this film contains many problems faced by thousands of families and everyone, and it is very rare to be able to make a story that resonates with all the people.
It also tells us that Article 20 of the law talks about legitimate defense, as an ordinary person, when facing some things that may cause harm to oneself, what kind of legitimate defense should be done~
