For a suspense drama fan, it seems that there are still some regrets after the summer has passed, after all, after last summer's "Hidden Corner", everyone's appetite has been suspended at once. Unexpectedly, this year, when the autumn wind first rose, I waited for Duan Yihong's new work "Double Detective".
Duan Yihong's three words seem to be the movable type sign of Chinese suspense films, this time Duan Yihong is even more pressed on the "Double Detective", not only starring himself but also serving as a producer for the first time. Unexpectedly, "Double Detective", which was watched by Duan Yihong, successfully brought the audience into the pit with its plot.
The drama "Double Detective" carries a strong personal flavor of Duan Yihong, and Zeng Meihuizi, the queen of the Golden Horse Film, was pulled to the northeast by Duan Yihong and transformed into a ranger.
The production team of "Blizzard Is Coming", which exploded in word of mouth, was also pulled to the "Double Detective" crew by Duan Yihong this time. Even the two directors of "Double Detective" are from film photography, and the cold camera language of the whole drama is full of suspense.
Duan Yihong almost used a high-quality suspense film production team to create "Double Detective", how can such a team shoot a suspense drama not good?
However, examples of cross-border failures in the film industry abound, fortunately, "Double Detective" met Duan Yihong. Duan Yihong is also fighting all the way out in the major domestic TV series, and is well versed in the rules of TV series shooting, and plays the best of the entire team to the extreme.
This time in "Double Detective", Zhang Guoqiang, Xing Jiadong and other veteran actors of "My Regiment Leader My Regiment" appeared in the play and made many "Tuan fans" double chefs ecstatic.
The performance of the actors in "Double Detective" this time is still remarkable. Duan Yihong played steadily as always, and the acting skills of the young actors were also quite surprising. The most surprising thing is actually the performance of Zeng Meihuizi. Before filming "Double Detective", everyone's influence on Zeng Meihuizi has always stayed on the sexiness.
Unexpectedly, this time, the ranger played by Zeng Meihuizi did not play at all, and the thick and wild nature were mixed together. Throughout the whole drama, Dapeng, who has been frequently praised by everyone in recent years, has become the shortest in the acting skills of all staff.
Although the performance of Dapeng, an actor who came out of the northeast, did not fall below the level of previous works in the play, it was much shallower to compete with a group of "drama bones" on the same stage.
The decaying towns of the Northeast seem to have become a hot spot for crime themes in recent years. The black past hidden under the snow is like an urban legend, attracting the curious "cat" in front of every screen. "Double Detective" also portrays the mystery of these urban legends to the fullest.
Underground gangsters, forest farms far from the city, and serial murders imitating religious methods are all tightly wrapped up in the winter in the northeast, and only under the layers of stripping away the cocoon can we find the real clues.
The relationship between the characters in the first half of "Double Detective" seems to be messy, but because the long-dissolved forest farm is finally connected. When the protagonists lead the audience through the fog and explore the truth, it is an unexpected but reasonable joy.
The play begins with two lines. Li Huiyan, played by Duan Yihong, is an ordinary policeman under the roots of the imperial city, living alone with his son, and met his son's classmates who were kidnapped on the way to work.
Unexpectedly, his colleague was accidentally injured in the pursuit of the murderer, and he who originally fought back was aroused by the missing girl's compassion, so he decided to lead the team to the twin towers thousands of miles away.
On the other hand, Zhou You, the mortician played by Dapeng, is also determined to return to his hometown in the Twin Towers to find the real culprit because his father was killed. A murder that was covered up in the Twin Towers many years ago has been unveiled.
The cleverness of the screenwriter of "Double Detective" is that he did not make up a very bizarre story, but pushed the whole story to the climax of the story through human choice. Zhou You's father Zhou Pingyuan was close friends with Wu Deshui, who had paid for the kidnapping of the little girl, and Ding Youli, who had died, but the three were found to have killed Wang Shuangli and his wife for stealing timber from the forest farm, but they did not expect that Wang Shuangli's child Wang Zhou (Bai Shizhou) witnessed everything and escaped from the fire.
For many years thereafter, he prepared for his revenge plan. He killed Ding Youli in the form of an ancient monument and went out Of Ding Youli's eyes to lead to the story of Wu Deshui finding outlaws to kidnap the girl in order to transfuse his own blood.
In the second step of Bai Shizhou's revenge, he went to Beijing to kill Zhou Pingyuan, dug out his tongue, and lured Zhou You back to his childhood hometown to track him step by step. In the end, wang shuangli and his wife and the innocent people buried in the fire of the forest farm were able to see the light of day many years later. And the surviving child of that year also became a butcher because of hatred.
The entire crew of "Double Detective" is also within the scope of its ability, and it is necessary to restore these details with the breath of life as much as possible.
From the first episode, Duan Yihong's appearance in the hutong poured spittoons and steaming breakfast, the buns and the old-fashioned bicycles that were shoved into his mouth in a hurry. The decaying twin towers, the dilapidated factory area and the Korean-style dog meat restaurant fill the whole drama with a sense of reality.
The protagonists, like the criminal investigators we come into contact with every day, do not open the perspective of God, and they will also worry about their own toilets after work.
In addition to the details on the scene, Duan Yihong and other actors have shaped the character personality more fully when performing. In the third episode, Li Huiyan almost died in the forest farm.
When he got into the local policeman's car, the sluggish eyes and the trance in the chat reflected Li Huiyan's appearance for the rest of her life and worried about her child. In the whole play, different characters have experienced changes in their mood, Li Huiyan is determined to pursue the murderer because she saw the parents of the lost girl collapsing outside the window, and when she heard the girl's "uncle" in the forest field, she tried her best to save the girl, and Bai Shizhou moved compassion for her because of a candy from the little girl.
These subtle variations of the actor are brilliant in their handling, which allows the audience to see not a illogical character, but a three-dimensional, multi-faceted person.
The drama "Double Detective" is a rare masterpiece of domestic criminal investigation suspense genre, and the scene shaping and actor performance are very worthy of praise. The details of the whole drama are handled in place, and what is brought to the audience is an immersive sense of experience that is enough to hang 99% of Chinese suspense movies.
