TVB smeared?
TVB, who used to grow up with us, seems to have not had any hot and beautiful dramas for a long time.
But tvb is naturally still filming, although the level is not as good as before, but there are still good shots, but now everyone has more and more choices, it is inevitable that it is difficult to reproduce the glory of the past.
In 2017, tvb and iQiyi collaborated on a film called "Blind Lawyer", also known as "Stepping on the Boundary", which tells the story of the blind lawyer Wen Shenxia and his three small partners uphold justice for disadvantaged groups. The number of episodes is not long. Although the second half is unfinished, the foundation of the TVB professional drama is still there, and the most commendable thing is the focus of this drama.
At first, you might find it strange that the case that this lawyer took was either crossing the street and running through a red light or being a poisoned dog. It seemed to be a trivial matter in daily life. Indeed, the things that are taken seriously by the Hong Kong courts in these dramas are simply uncommon in the Mainland. Who has crossed the road without breaking a red light? Which community has no cats, cats and dogs poisoned by rat poison?
, but normal does not mean normal.
It is wrong to run a red light; no matter how small an animal is, it is a life, and it should not be poisoned.
Of course, the point of this play is not here. Looking at it, you will find that as a "blind man", most of the cases received by Wen Shenxia come from vulnerable groups.
For example, as a normal person, have you ever thought about how blind people cross the road? How do they distinguish between intersections and traffic lights? What should I do if I can’t hear the sound of the traffic lights in the downtown streets?
In the poisoned dog case, the suspect was a mentally handicapped person with an IQ of only 10 years. Everyone saw him bury the poisoned dog and thought that he was the murderer. They never considered that he would not justify himself. problem. It was the blind man who felt that he was a kind and good boy from the contact with him, and he firmly believed that he would not poison dogs, and found the real murderer.
is also in this plot, I learned that dogs can eat blueberries, but not grapes.
There is also a very small case of someone who works as a cook in a bar where the underworld gathers and looks like a vulgar person. He carried a dozen knives bought from the mall and walked on the road in the middle of the night. He was considered to have hurt others. . The Blind Man defended him and pointed out that everyone always likes to judge people by their appearance.
The point of judging people based on their appearance has always been reflected in subsequent plots. For example, the beautiful and generous judge Li Jiaxin was speculated as a “service industry practitioner” by the male second in the bar, but she broke the world in court. Stick to justice.
The male protagonist is blind, and the four protagonists gathered around him. He is a lawyer, and the female protagonist has a triad background. The second male is a private detective, and the second female is a judge. Therefore, various forces are all alive in solving the case. .
The cases they come into contact with are often very controversial and topical, and the way they seek solutions often wanders on the edge, so they have the name "stepping on the boundary". One of the most instructive cases in the
play is that when the physical artist Wei Lizhen performed performance art, she was humiliated. She kicked that person and was accused of injuring others.
This is a topic that is repeatedly mentioned every summer. Girls wear less clothes and show their arms and thighs. Does it mean that men can touch it?
is obviously not possible. At any time and on any occasion, even if the girl is naked, as long as it does not affect the social order, as long as she does not agree with her, no one else has the right to do anything to her. Wei Lizhen in
is exactly like this. In the public, she was performing the art in her mind naked. Maybe many people can't understand this so-called art, and even think that it is very vulgar, but not understanding does not mean disrespect. As Li Jiaxin said in court, the judge has no way to define what is art. Everyone may have their own understanding of art, and even if they don’t understand the art presented by others, they should maintain the most basic respect.
But some people, obviously they see adultery, but they beatThe banner of "teaching her" vented one's desires. In fact, people like
can be seen everywhere, wearing a hypocritical mask full of benevolence and morality, and even upsetting them. When they encounter them, they should be exposed severely, rather than shrinking and appeasing.
Another very meaningful case is about deaf parents and children. In terms of parents' care for their children, Hong Kong is closer to European and American countries, and has made very strict legal requirements. If guardianship fails, it will be prosecuted immediately, and in serious cases will be deprived of guardianship. This case tells us that children are not private property that parents can arbitrarily dispose of. Once they decide to become parents, whether through their own childbearing or adoption of other people's children, it means that they are responsible for them.
There is another case involving transgender people and same wives. There is a person with gender cognitive impairment. The ID card shows that he is male, but medically recognizes that he is a woman. She always dresses up as a female and wants to save money for sex reassignment surgery. One time a woman fell, she helped her up and rubbed her broken tail vertebrae. Later, when the woman found out she was a man, she accused her of disguising herself as a woman, and finally filed a lawsuit because she realized that she was discriminating and prejudiced. Withdrawal of the lawsuit is the end.
does a lot of time and many things, what really affects us is the psychology rather than the physiology, but I also understand that woman very well, that is, if I know that a person is physically male and mentally female, I will show respect when it has nothing to do with me, but if It is the people around me. In daily life, no matter how hard you work, it is really difficult to really regard him as a complete woman, who doesn't mind physical contact or anything.
This is indeed a problem.
In addition to these very enlightening cases, the characters in the play are also very interesting. For example, because the eyes cannot see, he treats anyone and everything with his heart, but he sees more clearly. The heroine Sister Dian does not look good. Everyone, including Sister Dian herself, knows that, but the blind man thinks she is the most beautiful, because the beauty of the soul is the most important. The most wonderful thing about
is of course the "cohabitation life" between the male lead and the male second, which is so passionate! And this combination is easily reminiscent of Holmes and Watson.
Of course, this drama also has a very big flaw, that is, some places are too morally kidnapped. The heroine of
is a sympathetic white lotus. She can always trust and sympathize with the seemingly weak easily even without asking the reason. The judge ruled that if she does not follow her heart a little, she will anger the judge for having no conscience, male The second is a white lotus with impulsive personality. The two are invincible together. For example, they obviously don’t want to be a witness in court, but they insist on moral kidnapping to force people to appear in court; for example, the blind man was abandoned by his father when he was young, and his father is old and no one can support him. , The two of them came to morally kidnap the blind man again to force others to help. Although
is not perfect, the selection and perspective of the show are really commendable, and the settings of those cases are very inspiring. I very much hope that the TV series in the Mainland will not be limited to various kinds of Mary Su, but to dig out and pay more attention to people and things that are often overlooked by us, so as to truly use the influence of TV series with positive energy.
