Because I believe in Zhang Yimou, I will watch all Zhang Yimou’s movies.
On the second day of the Spring Festival, I chose " Article 20 ". Before watching the film, I learned that this film is a story about the creation of "Article 20" of the popular science criminal law.
However, after watching it, I realized that Zhang Yimou is really attentive, because if you pay enough attention, you will find that there are Easter eggs from "Article 20" both inside and outside the play.
Some of these Easter eggs are linked to the Spring Festival Gala, some are reflected in reality, some are about actors, and some are about directors.
The most important thing is that you can see from the details of these easter eggs that the director put a lot of thought into filming "Article 20" and giving the audience the best experience.
I found 6 in total, let’s start with the first one.
01 Ma Li First love breaks the dimensional wall
Shen Teng Ma Li performed a sketch on the Spring Festival Gala called "The House Is Not Cold".
At that time, "Article 20" had just been released on the big screen.
I don’t know if you have noticed, but in the sketch, Shen Teng, who has a crush on Ma Li and buys baby products in her live broadcast room, is named "Li Kui".
If you watch "Article 20" carefully, you will find that Li Maojuan, played by Ma Li, has a first love named "Li Kui".
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or a deliberate arrangement. This is definitely an Easter egg.
Especially when they heard the name "Li Kui", everyone laughed.
02 "Asking for an explanation"
In "Article 20", Zhang Guisheng, played by Yang Haoyu, has been petitioning tirelessly for the purpose of "asking for an explanation."
Audiences who are familiar with Zhang Yimou will probably smile knowingly when they hear the words "asking for explanation".
here is not only a colloquial expression of the bus's courageous crime, but also Zhang Yimou's callback to one of his own works, which is " Qiu Ju's Lawsuit ".
After so many years, Qiu Ju has become Zhang Guisheng’s “asking for an explanation”.
But what remains unchanged is Zhang Yimou’s continuous discussion of legal principles, human feelings and human nature.
Zhang Yimou is still the same Zhang Yimou and has never changed.
03 Hao Xiuping is not "dumb"
In the original script, Hao Xiuping is not actually hearing-impaired. The reason why
became hearing-impaired was suggested by Zhao Liying .
Zhao Liying, who plays Hao Xiuping, when she saw the script, her first reaction was that since her daughter Juanjuan is hearing-impaired, her mother should also be hearing-impaired.
Later, after investigation by the crew, it was found that this was indeed the case in social reality, so in the feature film, Hao Xiuping became a deaf-mute.
Zhang Yimou said that Zhao Liying’s proposal was very good, thus completing the change to the character setting.
04Reality is linked to
There are three cases in "Article 20", namely, campus bully acted bravely, bus driver acted bravely, Wang Yongqiang defended and was prosecuted.
These three cases, in fact, there are many cases in reality.
In a recent hot search, there was an example of a boy from a school in Beijing who stepped forward when he saw a female classmate being bullied on campus, but was dismissed by the school.
There are countless cases in society where bus drivers acted bravely.
For example, Zhang Jingren who bravely catches the thief, Wei Qiang who seizes the knife to save people,
and Wang Zongcheng who rushes to the rescue, etc.
Wang Yongqiang’s defensive case is also the most controversial case. The first thing that comes to our mind should be the case of Kunshan Brother Long being killed.
When the so-called Brother Long was committing murder in the street, Yu Haiming grabbed a knife and killed him. Although Yu Haiming was later criminally detained, the case was classified as self-defense, and Yu Haiming became a well-known face in this case. model.
It is precisely because there are so many factual cases as a basis that "Article 20" shows the confidence of ordinary people to face such judicial issues.
05 "Three provisions, three cases"
Everyone knows that the movie is related to Article 20 of the "Criminal Law", but Zhang Yimou also added Easter eggs about "Article 20" in the plot of the movie.
Article 20 of the Criminal Law has three paragraphs in total. The first paragraph stipulates the situation of ordinary legitimate defense, the second paragraph stipulates the situation of excessive defense, and the third paragraph stipulates the situation of special defense.
In the movie, there are exactly three cases mentioned. The three cases and the three regulations are implicitly consistent. This is also the tribute of "Article 20" to "Article 20".
06Learn a Language
Everyone knows that the hearing-impaired Hao Xiuping is played by Zhao Liying in the film.
In fact, Zhao Liying paid a lot for the role of Hao Xiuping. In the early days of
, she had been learning sign language and communication at the homes of hearing-impaired people. She would watch and learn while watching other people's daily lives.
When entering the set, Zhao Liying will put on earplugs and experience the inner world of the hearing-impaired.
In the end, Zhao Liying could even communicate with the hearing-impaired without any barriers and translate her lines.
During interviews after filming, Zhao Liying would unconsciously use sign language when speaking. Sign language has become a habit for her.
can put in such efforts, no wonder Zhang Yimou praised Zhao Liying: She gave me a big surprise.
Only after learning about these Easter eggs did I realize how thoughtful "Article 20" can be.
This kind of intention is based on respecting the ordinary audience and respecting the works.
The cases, laws and storylines in "Article 20" are like happening around us. After reading them, they will be of great help to our actions and even our lives.
