is pretty streamlined. Looking at the records of Hong Gu, from 1987 to 1988, 18 films were made, and and made 20 films in two years, and the output was amazing. In this highly productive atmosphere, the characters seem to be tailor-made for Chow Yun-fat and Zhong Chuhong , a handsome prodigal son who emphasizes loyalty, a beautiful and pitiful female ghost, and the two people's screen images of the same period are highly overlapped. Audiences can connect seamlessly. People and ghosts have different paths, this is a poignant love tragedy, and the two people are already skilled in acting together, so that the sense of CP is declining. There is an element of habitual "acting" in the relationship between couples, from anxiety to admiration to deep affection, and even disregarding life and death for each other's happiness.
, after all, an average of one movie will be completed in a month, all of which are short and smooth, and the pursuit of box office progress has two blossoms. Wang Jing, who once made seven films a year, ridiculed Xu Zheng for being slow in filming in "Tucao Conference", saying that if he was filming at his speed in the golden age of the year, he would not have to make up to play Zhu Bajie - directly by the producer Made into a pig's head.
Compared with Fa Ge's mediocre appearance, Hong Gu has gradually become more mature and charming in the creation of the role of "weak woman". Most of the characters starting from "Men and Women" appeared as women who were angry and aggrieved. In the 1980s, the "mainland girls" seemed to have become ghosts in the world, and they lived secretly in Hong Kong and were invisible. And the image is the kind of unseen, timid and rustic appearance. In
" Ghost Bride ", the impoverished female ghost in her lifetime accidentally saw the old clothes left by Fa Ge's ex-girlfriend. Seeing what Aunt Hong was so excited to try on, I thought to myself, I'm afraid it's not another link showing the gap between the rich and the poor and the actress' "vase" showing her flesh. This is almost the standard of Hong Kong films in the 1980s - one is Versailles, which invisibly revealed the economic disparity between Hong Kong and the mainland, and the other is to use a bridge to achieve "transformation".
The timid and timid little village girl has transformed into a charming and charming city beauty. With the previous shooting methods, the camera may also start from a voyeuristic perspective, slowly swinging from the woman's legs to the chest, accompanied by the girl's shy expectation, "Does it look good?", a strong male stare. What's more surprising about
is that this routine did not appear under the scrutiny of men, but appeared in another kind of man in the most embarrassing scene. When Brother Fa was beaten with a bruised face, and was embarrassed by his ex-girlfriend and cheater, Hong Gu, who was dressed in a trendy Hong Kong style, quietly appeared and followed suit. . Bright, cute, relieved and not out of balance.
is much smarter under the usual pattern of "seeing clothes - changing clothes - men's eyes brighten and nod in approval". It also seems that this female ghost is very avant-garde. Although she could not even be called Xiaojiabiyu in her lifetime, she has courage and wisdom. Lonely ghost wanders the most prosperous downtown Tsim Sha Tsui. This little girl neither loses nor loses.
Of course, the most desolate character in the whole film should be Brother Fa's cousin, the old Taoist nun of Maoshan who is over forty years old and all alone. With sharp and capable hair, and aggressive aura in front of others, but sighing in sorrow when there is no one there, there is a little woman's weak and courting heart. Facing his cousin in vain, he is willing to be the scenery of others under the bridge. In order to achieve the wish of the female ghost, he climbed on her body and walked on earth. Wearing sexy clothes that you would never normally wear, you can finally date your cousin with your own body. The extremely conservative man-in-law puts on a navel-baring outfit and turns into a pretty girl, pulling her lover to show off her love. The scene is funny enough. The core of
comedy is tragedy, this kind of person is not in the soul, the joy and sorrow of the close and the far away, worry about the gain and loss, the detachment, the five flavors are mixed. When the ghost took off temporarily to try on clothes, and the cousin found out that the character was no longer in search of the female ghost, the unconcealed joy and sudden loss on the cousin's face came together. According to the camera, the two of them are getting farther and farther away. In a few seconds, there was not much ink, but with one blow, Sima Qingshan stabbed the heart of the spectator. (Ye Dexian was nominated for the Best Supporting Actress at the Film Awards for this film, acting as ,Singing, playing, and having both shapes, it can be said to be the biggest bright spot in the whole film)
- everyone has a story, but who wants to be a supporting role?
Cost-effectively, this ghost bride makes a pretty bad exchange. Not only has the ending not changed at all, she still has to become the ghost husband's bride, and has more debts (they were sold at the beginning, and now there are ghost debts, and she has to give up). Master Mao Shan's old life is gone, and he has a 13-year longevity for Brother Fa, a lifetime of thoughts, and a lifetime of resentment from his cousin. In a sense, the ex-girlfriend's death and transformation into a ghost has something to do with her. With Brother Fa's habit of raking his ears, the woman had nowhere to go, and it was really possible to beg him to take over as a father. Alas, I can't explain it with one sentence, I'm not happy to be a human being, and it's meaningless to live. All things in the world, crazy men and women, a love word is the most confusing.
