In the past, "Flowers" single-handedly raised the audience's aesthetic threshold, and then "My Altay" once again made the audience visually shocked.
Only then did the audience know that after the end of "Flowers", Ma Yili, who had been precipitated for a long time, brought a high-quality work in front of everyone, and the beginning was Wang Bang!
Stunning framing
If "Flowers" makes the drunken gold fans of old Shanghai dreamy, then "My Altay" shows the unadorned ecological nature to the fullest.
Just looking at the stills, you have to be drunk by this beautiful scenery. I have to say that the recent audience "ate too well." ”
What kind of TV series can become the first high-quality work in China to be shortlisted for the Best Long Series at the Cannes International Film Festival with just eight episodes?
And it also caused a violent sensation in the TV drama circle, not only is it expected to be broadcast in the prime time of the central one, but it is also predicted that "it will be a miracle in the TV drama circle"?
"My Altay" is an adaptation of Li Juan's essay of the same name, and although it is only a short eight episodes and is called a "mini-TV series", its quality is in no way inferior to any TV series, and even comparable to high-level movies.
Just from some clips, we can see how hard the crew worked, the long-haired man was running on a fierce horse on the grassland, and behind him was the endless mountains.
The whip in his hand is his signal to advance, and in this vast world, he is like an eagle growing in this grassland, galloping freely in his territory.
These shots were all taken in Altay, Xinjiang, and Xinjiang under the lens aesthetics made the audience feel the magnificent beauty of the original ecology. This pure natural scenery without any embellishment comes to the face, and the whole picture is a pleasure to watch.
Just by looking at the few fragments, we can feel the fluttering clouds, the cold wind, and the rustling of leaves, telling the story of what happened in this land.
A powerful cast
This drama tells the story of Li Wenxiu, a Han girl who grew up in Altay, who has no choice but to turn around and return to her hometown after repeatedly hitting a wall in a big city.
But as everyone knows, fate has written a new chapter for her in her former home.
The hard-working and simple mother, the handsome and wanton teenager, and the healing scenery make this simple story glow with a different appeal.
And the starring role of this drama also interprets the sentence "the drama is popular before it is broadcast", and before the show started, it brought continuous high popularity.
First of all, Ma Yili, after the explosion of "Flowers", let the audience see her strength again. As a middle-aged queen, she also cherishes her feathers very much.
This can be seen from the perspective of Ma Yili's selection of scripts, whether it is "Flowers" or "My Altay", they are all first-class good scripts.
In "My Altay", she plays the heroine's mother, with a dark face, obvious wrinkles, and the obvious plateau red, as if to prove to the audience: what a hard-working and simple mother this is.
Many actresses not only have idol baggage in terms of playing ugly, but also blindly pick roles and compete for positions.
But in Ma Yili, you can't see this, just this still, it has been proved that a good actor has no role limitations.
As a powerful actor, Ma Yili also contributed a lot of highlight shots in this drama, making us feel how selfless and great mother's love is.
and our male protagonist Ba Tai, a man as free as an eagle, lives wantonly in this grassland.
As the absolute leading actor in this drama, the director is also very picky about the actor selection requirements of "Ba Tai".
Because the background is Xinjiang, he requires the actor not to have too much urban sense of oil and powder, and he also requires the actor to be tall and mighty, with pure natural wildness.
Judging from a variety of factors, Yu Shi is simply the chosen son.
After the filming of "Fengshen" ended, Yu Shi's strong wild vitality was still maintained, which coincided with Ba Tai's sense of fate.
And Yu Shi himself not only looks very suitable, but also speaks a pure Kazakh language, which is a surprise for the director.
At the premiere of the Beijing Film Festival, Yu Shi's appearance also caused quite a stir.
is different from the feminine beauty of other male actors, the male hormonal aura that cannot be concealed on Yu Shi's body is the best weapon to win women.
Although he is a rookie actor, Yu Shi's acting skills, whether in "Fengshen" or "My Altay", are very natural, and there is no trace of deliberate performance.
In addition to Ma Yili and Yu Shi, there is also the heroine, who is played by Zhou Yiyi.
Although in the entertainment industry, Zhou is still a rookie actor and has no masterpieces, but this smart girl has the innocent and brave characteristics of the heroine.
She is like an unpolluted little white flower that grows up in love.
Although she embarked on a journey to the big city with a dream, after experiencing the test of the big city, she found that in fact, her heart may be more suitable for her hometown.
This land that she once frantically wanted to escape, when she was frustrated, she gave a warm embrace tolerantly.
Although he is an unknown little actor, Zhou is still very malleable, and he has his own characteristics with every smile and smile.
In addition to the starring role, there is also Jiang Qiming, who has been popular recently, and he also appeared in this drama! How many scenes has this brother filmed behind our back?
I have to say that Jiang Qiming's vision of choosing scripts is even more vicious than Ma Yili. In "The Long Season", his dumb handsome guy doesn't talk much, and in "My Altay", he once again plays a ruffian and silly businessman.
and the recently hit "Harbin 1944", in which he also got out of the circle with his ruthlessness, which made the audience hate itchy.
In Jiang Qiming, we can't see any shadow of the character, he is himself standing there, but when he is put into the shooting, it becomes the character itself.
Although the 31-year-old Jiang Qiming is not a rookie actor, he must have a promising future with his acting skills.
epilogue
All in all, "My Altay" is like jade carved with heart, and it is not on the same level as other TV series produced on the assembly line.
And this time it has also received a lot of recognition in foreign media, which has undoubtedly brought it more heat.
But let's wait and see whether this national-themed TV series can eventually become a benchmark in the TV drama circle!
