When watching "The First Incense" in the cinema, many clips of Mang Mama wanted to laugh out loud.
Qiao Jijie advised Ge Weilong to stay away from Qiao Qiqiao, saying that he was a bit gloomy and a little bit of a, and the next second he was punched in the face by Peng Yuyan wearing a sleeveless vest pulled by a camel Xiangzi and carrying a stack of champagne glasses.
Peng Yuyan's bronze dark skin and strong and powerful arms all showed that he was not the girl in Qiao Jijie's mouth.
So the whole scene changed its taste, and suddenly gave people a sense that Qiao Jijie was not kindly advising, but felt that Ge Weilong was not worthy of his brother, and deliberately said that Ge Qiqiao's bad words wanted Ge Weilong to break his mind.
On the first night that Ge Weilong came to his aunt's house with his luggage, in the original work, Ge Weilong said that he had only come after eating, but in the movie, Ma Sichun looked up slightly mischievously and said that he had not eaten.
Looking at the roasted Mai Ma Si Chun who had never eaten, his eyes lit up, and there was a plate of stir-fried vegetables, a bowl of porridge, and a large cup of juice waiting to dry next to him.
I really want to rush into the movie to shake Ma Sichun, don't eat, the director can't watch it! In the original work, tomorrow's aunt looked at your clothes and said, "Your legs are too thin" were deleted!
Although I knew before watching the movie that the two lead actors did not stick to the role, I knew how far the two people and the characters were when watching the movie.
Everyone in the movie thinks that Peng Yuyan is too beautiful to eat soft rice, even Peng Yuyan himself said that he can't support himself, if you want to evaluate an award with your eyes open and talk nonsense, no one can compete with "The First Burning Incense" for the first place, and the money he earns by pulling a rickshaw should be more than that earned by Mang Mama's writing.
Ma Sichun only when wearing pajamas, Mang Mama will not worry that she will burst the clothes, every shot that crosses the curve of the body, is full as if pleading: please slow down when exhaling, slow down again!
There is a scene of a rainy day when the little girl gives her an umbrella, the back of the two people photographed by the camera, the thin body of the little girl and the strong arms of Ma Sichun form a strong contrast, which makes people wonder why Ma Sichun became a famous social flower, is not the aesthetic of Hong Kong at that time and the Same as the Tang Dynasty.
(It's this outfit)
It is undeniable that after such a Georgie Joe and Ge Weilong meet, they are destined to produce a fierce spark, and both people exude a sense of thickness of life and the rustic atmosphere of sunshine wheat.
When watching the movie, Mama Mang tried her best to find the reason why Yu Feihong let Ma Sichun help her hang a man, and finally wanted to come and go, and she could only think that Yu Feihong was too lazy.
In the original work, it is described that the aunt "the beauty is old, but the eyes are not old", but Yu Feihong, in addition to the wrinkles in the corners of the eyes, has a minimal sense of decay about the old woman.
And if you want to come to Ma Sichun, you don't need to spend much effort, you just need to use the name of the party to call the man to the small white building to play, and the rest of the aunt will do it herself.
After talking about the appearance, let's talk about the acting skills of the actors.
If the actor wants to laugh because of the appearance does not match, then the actor's acting skills are a bit restless.
Peng Yuyan, because of his heavy appearance, although he tried his best, he could only perform the prodigal son of the love scene in the flower, and he could not play the unintentional coolness of Georgie Qiao like a plaster cast.
But Ma Sichun is different, she directly gave up the Ge Weilong in everyone's eyes and acted into another person.
Ge Weilong is a girl who is willing to fall for material things, but Ma Sichun is more like being forced into prostitution because of love.
Once Jiang Sida asked her why she wanted to die Zhang Ailing's heroine, she said, "No matter who I am willing to try, even if I don't act well, I can work hard"!
Listen, this is like asking why you like to eat apples, you answer: No matter what fruit, I can't finish eating it, take more time to eat.
When the actor's understanding of a role is only me to work hard, then all she shows is excessive force, excessive force regardless of the occasion, equal excessive force.
All the scenes that need to show emotional release, whether it is the quieter way she compromises to make money for her aunt, or she asks Georgie Qiao why she has not changed her nature after marriage, Ma Sichun uses her standard set of pure smile pain acting skills.
Look, I'm going to play!
Ma Sichun, you are very enjoyable in acting, but we are very embarrassed to watch it in the cinema!
There are no levels, no transitions, and no grooming.
However, even so, to say that the biggest failure of the film is the casting and Ma Sichun's acting skills, Mama Mang still does not agree.
The biggest difference between the film and the original book is not the actors, but the structure of the whole film.
Even if they change to a suitable actor who can perform the flavor of the original, they can still only perform one romance film.
After all, screenwriter Wang Anyi in an interview with Southern Weekend has shown that director Xu Anhua wants to shoot love this time.
Although Xu Anhua and Wang Anyi copied many lines, they also turned some psychological activities into lines in the movie, and in addition to the second half of the hour, the content and narrative order of the entire film were basically the same as the original work.
But their deconstruction and re-filling in of some plots has led to a complete subversion of the theme of the story.
For example, the sentence "What is the difference between this and buying a pleasing person in the Changsantang" should have been a self-talk of Ge Weilong when she first lived in her aunt's house, and her saying it could show that Ge Weilong was actually sober from the beginning.
However, in the movie, it has become a complaint that Makes a mockery of Ge Weilong, which has no meaning except to repeat Ge Weilong's future tasks.
And when Ge Weilong was sick, he remembered what he subconsciously felt reliable.
In her house, the black iron bed on which she and her sister slept, the mattress on the bed, white floor, red wicker; the old dresser of boxwood; the peach-style porcelain jar that was red in the sun, filled with talk; the beauty moon card nailed to the wall, on the arm of the beautiful woman, the mother added the numbers of the tailor, the head line, the tofu paste, the aunt and the third aunt with a pencil...
This is a period of Ge Weilong's inner struggle with material desires, a process of her repeated thinking.
But the movie uses this paragraph on the flirtation between Ge Weilong and Ge Qiqiqiao, and Ge Weilong suddenly talks about his home very abruptly, and Georgie Qiao also replied with a sentence of "Let your sister leave, that black iron bed we sleep", the kind of desire that should have been deeper immediately became low-level.
Not to mention that after Ge Weilong received the diamond bracelet given by Situ Xie, there was a psychological depiction of the movie that was directly skipped, which led to the urgent questioning of Georgie Jo if he could get married, just like he didn't want to marry a rich old man just for the sake of his lover.
The movie basically deletes the part of Ge Weilong's inner heart in the original work, puts the focus on love, and agrees that Ge Weilong is sacrificing for love.
Without the core of human nature, the movie is a bit like a running account.
Who is responsible for the deviation of the theme of the film?
Wang Anyi said that the script was made like this because she had to obey the director, and she knew that there was an exchange of interests in the story, and she also told the director.
But the specific composition of how the film is the director's creation, has nothing to do with her, she has completed the director's requirements.
It's hard not to say that there is a suspicion of throwing the pot.
Wang Anyi not only dumped the director, but also dumped the actor, saying that Ge Weilong's complexity was that Ma Sichun did not perform.
Ma Sichun is going to scold people, I can only "play beyond normal", the script is not written how do I act?
Now I think that the reading feeling of the "First Incense" written by Ma Sichun should be the reading feeling of the script.
However, director Xu Anhua definitely has to bear the main responsibility, from the time she said that she wanted a love film, she was wrong.
She doesn't seem to understand Zhang Ailing, let alone Zhang Ailing's characters, which can be seen from the half hour when the movie continues.
Ge Weilong and Ge Qiqiao are still in the honeymoon period, Situ Xie wants Ge Weilong to accompany him to Shanghai, Qiao Qiqiao changed his previous indifference, in order not to let Ge Weilong go to bed and lie on his stomach. (This paragraph is quite like the big brother of the woman who prostituted the little brother)
Georgie Joe's handsomeness was there at this time, but it was obviously inconsistent with the original character.
It is as if Georgie Qiao was "touched" by Ge Weilong's love, developed true feelings and wanted to put them into action.
There are even awkward but possessive lines like "I'm your man."
Maybe this is a warm ending, the effort will always be rewarded, how warm!
But this in itself is already at odds with the cruel aesthetics expressed by Zhang Ailing.
Zhang Ailing's small white building is like a tomb, "if the white house of the Liang family has changed into a grave, it may not be surprising", just like her story and people.
But Xu Anhua's small white building is covered by lush green and full of life, just like her movie.
If Zhang Ailing's novel is a fleas on the brocade, then Xu Anhua will crush the fleas one by one and take the brocade out to bask in the sun.
Xu Anhua is not to make Zhang Ailing's novel into a love film, he is only willing to accept the love part inside, after all, this part is still somewhat beautiful, and she also strives to make the end of Be more warm.
So at the end of the film, Ge Weilong shouted: "I love you, you have no conscience", to tell the truth, after Mama Mang came out of the theater, she still felt this sentence echoing in her ears...
At the same time, she wants to cater to the audience, wants the box office, and almost finds an actor to be the heroine.
The director has bad motives, and the other big players don't seem to have a decent attitude.
For example, Wang Anyi's task-based writing of the script was completed in less than a month.
Wada Emi said that according to the temperament of the actor to design clothes, this is no different from directly saying not to read novels, and in the eyes of stylists, Ma Sichun has to wear like middle-aged and elderly women, peng Yuyan wears like low-level hard work?
Even the clothes in the cupboard that Ge Weilong saw for the first time were not so brilliant.
Music this time Mang Ma did not taste anything special, wrote that this is remembered to be Sakamoto Ryuichi made, but it may also be that Mang Ma herself is not sensitive to music.
Of course, the movie is not completely unworthy of watching.
Du Kefeng's photography still has to be exaggerated, and the humid and warm breath comes through his lens, which is both ambiguous and delicate.
If you want to see a romance movie, it is also okay, after all, the lineup is so strong, it must be much better than the average love movie.
The rest, I won't say.
