movies, such as suspense, horror, action, science fiction, cop, magic, war, etc. Everyone has their favorite movie category. As long as you are a movie-goer, there will always be a movie Especially attract you. But among all the movie categories, comedy is probably the most acceptable genre to everyone. After all, life is so stressful, who would refuse to smile happily?
comedy also has advantages and disadvantages. Excellent comedy works can make people laugh happily, and at the same time trigger some thoughts. Bad comedy is just a mockery of some old stalks, or use exaggerated body expressions to remind you: it's time to laugh. A good comedy is inseparable from actors who are talented in acting. Comedy is not something that everyone can act funny. Sometimes a comedian's acting skills are often higher than those of other types of film actors.
In my mind, there are four people who can create their own world in the field of comedy. It is not that the performance of other actors is not funny or beautiful, but that the performance of these four people can make people feel deeply. To their own style. Today, let’s take a look at who are these four comedy geniuses? (In no particular order)
1. Chen Peisi
Chen Peisi, as a pioneering figure in the sketch world, can be said to be great.
Chen Peisi was admitted to the Bayi Film Studio actor troupe in 1973. In 1980, he collaborated with his father Chen Qiang in the movie "Look at This Family", which opened his comedy show. What really made Chen Peisi’s household name was his collaboration with Zhu Shimao. On the spring evening of 1984, he and Zhu Shimao performed the skit "Eating Noodles" for the first time, which immediately became the show with the most laughs at the Spring Festival Gala. It has become a classic on the Spring Festival Gala. It is worth mentioning that Chen Peisi still had hair at that time.
Every Spring Festival Gala thereafter, Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao will jointly launch a short show, "Film Making", "Selling Lamb Skewers", "Pepper Noodles", "Protagonists and Supporting Roles", "Police and Thieves", "Brother-in-law and Brother-in-law" , "Big Changed Living", "Space Gymnastics Trials", "The Lord and the Postman", each of the sketches became the best language program at the Spring Festival Gala that year, and also brought countless laughter and laughter to the audience. In the Spring Festival Gala, without Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao, it was like no salt in the Lunar New Year’s Eve dinner.
Chen Peisi has his own unique style of comedy performance. His sketches are very ironic, with exaggerated expressions and body movements, and the smiles in the sketches are rich and unconventional. He is particularly good at shaping the image of small people at the bottom of society. Most of his works are close to life. Reflect social phenomena. His understanding and shaping of the sketches have allowed people to get rid of the inherent impression that comedy is both "farce".
Many people think that Chen Peisi is the inventor of the skit, and he created a form of comedy performance. With his innovation, there are many later skit programs. From this point of view, Chen Peisi is indeed a great master. .
2. Zhao Benshan
If Chen Peisi invented the sketch, then Zhao Benshan is the person who carried forward the sketch.
Zhao Benshan is a master of traditional Northeast folk performances such as playing erhu, blowing suona, throwing handkerchiefs, beaters jade, singing small tunes, two-person turning caps and other traditional Northeast folk performances, and he is a master at Sanxian performance. These skills have also become important for his future development. arms.
In 1982, at the first rural small drama performance held in Liaoning, Zhao Benshan cooperated with Li Zhongtang and Cui Kai in "Three Strings". He played the blind Zhang Zhi and became famous in one fell swoop. "Sanxian" won the first prize for the performance. At that time, Zhao Benshan became the lead actor and business leader of Tieling County Opera Troupe. Although Zhao Benshan made his debut very early, what really impressed him at that time was the sketches on spring evenings and the TV series "Country Love Story", which is very local and rustic.
After Chen Peisi withdrew from the Spring Festival Gala for various reasons, the skit was suppressed for a long time by cross talk. During that period, Feng Gong and the cattle were more attractive. The skit became a reasonable but not funny show. Fan Wei's "Red Sorghum Model Team" turned out to be the first shot of the revival of the sketch on the Spring Festival Gala.
has since continued to cooperate with Fan Wei, Gao Xiumin, Song Dandan, Xiao Shenyang and others to launch sketches that make people laugh. "Happy New Year", "Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow", "Hourly Work", "Selling Crutches" trilogy, "LittleA series of works such as "Cui Says Things", "Planning", "Torchbearer", "Not Short of Money" and so on, made people reap a lot of laughter on the evening of New Year's Eve.
Zhao Benshan’s sketches are simple in style and full of Northeast local characteristics. They have a very simple Northeast peasant atmosphere in terms of character, expressiveness and language, which makes people feel real and kind.
After Zhao Benshan announced his withdrawal from the Spring Festival Gala stage, we also look forward to the emergence of new sketch geniuses who can resist the banner of the Spring Festival Gala sketch.
3. Shen Teng
Let's talk about Shen Teng who is now red. It is not an exaggeration to say that Shen Teng has a face like God's food.
Shen Teng’s looks are not handsome, nor ugly, but when you see his face, you feel full of joy and want to laugh, even if he looks at you with a serious face. While talking, you still feel like to laugh, this is his ability.
Shen Teng starred in Happy Twist’s first stage play "Want to Eat Twist Now I’ll Twist You" in 2003. He first appeared on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala on the spring evening of 2012. He performed in the image of "Hao Jian" The sketch "Today's Happiness" has since established his own seemingly humble performance style.
Shen Teng just started to make people laugh and has always been in the form of skits. On the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, he performed "Today's Happiness 2", "Whether It Helps", and "Fulfill Yourself" continuously. People felt his funny skills, but what really made him famous was the classic "Charlotte Annoyance" in 2016. I believe everyone who has seen this movie has been tortured so that their abdominal muscles are almost coming out. Right.
Since this movie, Shen Teng has been highly anticipated, because everyone has seen that a new comedy performance style is being born. Maybe this style has already been shown in the happy twist drama, but it really enters the public’s field of vision. Credit for "Charlotte Trouble". After that, Shen Teng appeared as a guest in "Ice Fist of Shame", and the appearance of just ten minutes made people very happy. After
, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" continued the "Shen-style" humorous performance style, and Shen Teng's performance once again reaped a good box office. Shen Teng now performs calmly and with ease. He always speaks lines seriously and does actions very often, but it has the effect of making you laugh. This is Shen Teng’s unique comedy. As for his performance style, he has created his own comedy genre, and he is looking forward to more of his works next.
4. Zhou Xingchi
The master of nonsensical comedy performance, the well-deserved king of comedy in the hearts of countless people, and a Chinese comedy genius full of personality charm and controversy... There are countless titles belonging to him, and he is Zhou Xingchi.
It cannot be said that the comedy performance style of nonsense was invented by Stephen Chow. Someone has performed this style of performance before him, but Stephen Chow has really sublimated this performance style to a state of refreshing the three views of human beings. Watch his performance. I can’t control my emotions at all. I am taken with you by his performance. When he makes you laugh, you will definitely laugh. Even when he touches you, you will definitely be moved. This is the scary thing about Zhou Xingchi. .
If the above three comedy performances make you laugh and break your belly, Stephen Chow’s comedy makes you laugh and cry from time to time. He is a person who can truly reveal tragedy in comedy and highlight comedy in tragedy. His acting skills need not go into too much detail. We are familiar with his works. His movies are one of the few that can be watched 10 times without feeling boring. The joy he has brought to generations is unmatched.
"Nine Grades of Sesame Officials", "Once Upon a Time", "Deer and Ding Ji" series, "Executive Officer", "Jigong", "The King of Thousand Kings 2000", "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", "A Journey to the West" "Domestic Lingling Paint", "The God of Cookery", "The King of Comedy", "Play Back to School" series... His biggest regret is that there are no more nonsensical style movies, which makes us always feel like him There are not enough works.
Zhou Xingchi is also a controversial person. Many people say that he is too impersonal and serious and rigid, but without his harsh attitude towards film works, how can we see so many classic comedies?
, as the director, Stephen Chow is no longer focusing on nonsensical styles, but instead photographs what he wants to express. Although there are mixed praises and criticisms, this is what Stephen Chow does.A director’s "Tao", he must guard his "Tao", and we must also respect his directing style. Maybe we will never see Zhou Xingchi's figure appearing in any film and television drama in the future, but the joy he brings us will never be erased.
Four masters of comedy, maybe we can only see Shen Teng’s works in the future, and the other three have rarely performed in the mountains. I sincerely hope that they can be dozens of years younger and return to the public’s attention. The pressure of this era Too big, it needs more joy and their performance, so that we can truly understand the "joy" of life.
