What do you think of Zhang Fengyi s White Deer Plain ?

Zhang Fengyi played the patriarch of Bailu Village, with a high position and prestige. The movie only retains a main line of Bai Jiaxuan as a leader of Confucian culture, treating Changgong Lu San's family with benevolence and righteousness, treating Lu Zilin leniently, strictly disciplining Bai Xiaowen, and ruthlessly suppressing Tian Xiao'e. I think this drama is played by Zhang Fengyi very well, very well, I like to watch it very much.

I haven't read the original work, but the works that have won the Mao Dun Literature Award must be good, and I have seen the history of suffering that some people have commented on as a nation. Judging from the film presented by director and screenwriter Wang Quanan, it is also epic. Bailuyuan is like a microcosm of the great countryside of China in that era.

For film adaptation, this kind of epic work is difficult to control, and it can be felt that Wang Quanan tried to restore more of the essence of the original work in the two-and-a-half-hour film adaptation, characters, conflicts, layouts, and even the portrayal of multiple details, seeing the small in the small, this kind of serious attitude is commendable, but it is too full.

At the end of the movie, Lu Zilin drove a car and shouted revolution like 26 years ago, the Japanese plane blew up the stage, the city wall and the wheat field, blew up the wealth of Bailuyuan, and tore the spiritual foundation of this land, Bai Jiaxuan looked around blankly in the fog of gunpowder, shouting the name of Lu Zilin who witnessed the wind and rain of Bailuyuan together, the new turmoil is unstoppable, the old order has collapsed, but it is still the aging Bai Jiaxuan who is still maintained, can the ancient Bailuyuan be reborn in the ruin? Bai Jiaxuan and Lu Zilin, the rivals who fight each other with hidden knives in cotton, make people ponder for a while.

The film can probably be divided into two parts, the first half epitomizes social turmoil and regime change, the unchanging ancient land of Bailuyuan and the township party usher in a wave of people in power, the old stage is like a stage of history, and the township party below accepts rounds of plunder with an almost numb expression, including food, feelings and dignity. Interspersed with some foreshadowing of later conflicts. The second half mainly focuses on the conflict between etiquette, feelings, and morality.

So when you watch a movie, you will feel two different rhythms before and after.

The 150-minute version I watched on Kuaibo may be the version I watched, but it was cut too much, and I always felt that the film was very messy, and there were too few and too few attractive places to attract people. Because I watched the original work first, it was so exciting, every chapter is a classic, the imagined picture echoed in my mind for a long time, plus the various reports I watched before the movie was released, so I had great expectations for the film, Zhang Fengyi, Tian Xiao'e, and Heiwa, and I felt that it should be a very wonderful film, but the result was very disappointing.

The only thing in the film that makes me feel a little excited is that at 26 minutes, there is a Qin dialect that feels really flavorful, and the rest is really bad For example, the scene where Lu San kills Tian Xiao'e is actually a very important part in the original book, because this picture deeply affected Lu San's later life Tian Xiao'e turned his head and called his "Dad" before he died, and it was often played back in his mind, haunting him that he couldn't let go, and even the physical strength and energy tortured by Tian Xiao'e's unjust soul possession were exhausted People also became demented, but in the film It's just a simple sight that Lu San killed Tian Xiao'e Everything seems to have happened peacefully, and then, there is no then...

I haven't read the original book, but watching the movie, I can still feel Wang Quanan's all-round efforts, and the rhythm of the camera and character language is suppressed very plain and slow, but for the two-and-a-half-hour movie time, a historical microcosm spanning nearly 30 years, it needs to be more refined and controlled.

If it weren't for the fact that I watched ** before, I really don't know what the movie is about, what era the director wants to say, the jump is too fast There is no good connection, the scene is big enough, wide enough, but it is not enough to have scenes, you have to have content to have content that people can understand, it is a good movie.

At least the image is very close to the original work, and Zhang Jiayi's waist is too powerful.
