In February 1960, the movie "Lin Hai Snow Field" was officially launched. But it was a difficult time for three years of natural disasters. The crew's life is extremely hard, each person has less than a pound of rations per day, and the actors often can't even fill their stomachs, so under such difficult conditions, shooting this film is considered by many to be an "impossible task".

Of course, no matter how difficult the conditions are, it is difficult for the heroic film creators. The film crew tightened their belts and overcame various difficulties, and the "miscellaneous brand army" that was pieced together from east to west was built by director Liu Peiran into an "iron army" that was united and upward, daring to fight and dare to fight, creating a miracle in the history of Chinese cinema.
Wang Runsheng
During the filming of the movie, the crew members crawled and fought in the snowy northeast forest and sea snowfield, and suffered a lot. Once, Yang Zirong's actor Wang Runsheng was temporarily delayed because of the departure of the crew, and he could only enter the mountain alone, but he could not find a filming location. Without paying attention, Wang Runshen almost walked into the loose and fragile regolith forest area, thanks to a lumberjack who stopped him in time and sent him back to the camp.
Snow March
Audiences who have seen this film are impressed by many ski marches in the film. Clad in silver robes, the warriors sped forward between the snowy peaks, and the picture was extremely contagious. In order to let the actors learn this skill, the crew invited athletes from the Bayi Ski Team to train the actors' skiing skills. In order to practice skiing skills, everyone often fell blue nose and swollen face, and their bodies were injured.
In July 1960, the crew came to Beijing to shoot the interior scene, at that time, the studio was extremely hot, in order to make Yang Zirong's image real and credible, Wang Runshen still had to wear a leather jacket and hat, shooting every day, Wang Run's body was soaked with sweat, and even the first thing after filming every day was to run to take a cold shower.
Wang Run's classic appearance
The movie "Lin Hai Xueyuan" adopts the expression method of dramatic art, gives full play to the flexible characteristics of film art time and space, naturally and truly shapes Yang Zirong, Shao Jianbo, "Zashan Eagle" and other characters, changes the performance mode of "high, big and complete" of the hero in character shaping, and shapes the heroic character of Yang Zirong into a living character with flesh and blood, emotional changes and human feelings.
Stills from the movie "Lin Hai Snow Field"
Although the movie "Lin Hai Snow Field" is a completely men's play, Bai Ru, a hygienist nicknamed "Little White Pigeon" in the film, has won the love of the audience with innocence and kindness. So many viewers who have read the novel will ask why in the original "Lin Hai Snow Field", the story of Bai Ru and Shao Jianbo, the couple, is not reflected in the movie "Lin Hai Snow Field"?
In the movie "Lin Hai Snow Field", Shi Wei played Bai Ru
In the novel, the love between Shao Jianbo and Bai Ru is a bright color that warms people's hearts, but director Liu Peiran completely deleted the love scene between Shao Jianbo and "Little White Pigeon" Bai Ru, making Bai Ru an indispensable embellishment. In this regard, Liu Peiran explained: "If there is this love scene, it will interfere with and even destroy the most wonderful things. It is equivalent to a fork in the road, no beginning and no tail. ”
Shi Wei
When recalling the filming of the film, the actor Shi Wei, who played Bai Ru, explained it this way: "There is no such performance in the script, only mentioning that Bai Ru is a health officer of the squad and has no other identity. Shi Wei revealed that there was a scene in which Bai Ru sent documents to Shao Jianbo, and he wanted to shout "report" in a playful voice, but was reminded by the director that it was inappropriate. Shi Wei said: "I understand what he means, in that era, showing love was very cautious and restrained, so I acted honestly."
Movie stills
In addition to deliberately removing the emotional scene, some details of the movie "Lin Hai Snow Field" also make people wonder, how did the squad catch the small furnace maker? How did Yang Zirong learn black words? None of this is explained in the movie. Are these mistakes made by director Liu Peiran?
Directed by Liu Peiran
We can find the origin of the matter from the 1960 2nd issue of "Popular Film", one of which signed "Cedar" pointed out: "The first filming is the second episode, because the shooting of the squad skiing, the battle of Weihu Mountain and other shots must first grab the snow scenes." It seems that the "Lin Hai Snow Field" we saw is only the next episode, according to the director's plan, there should have been an upper episode. It was only due to an adjustment in the shooting schedule that the "prequel" was stranded. If there is a preparation for the previous episode, "Lin Hai Snow Field" will be more complete and leave no regrets.
