Speaking of period dramas, one of the more popular ones recently is "South and North". Although it just ended not long ago, the lingering warmth has not dissipated. This story tells the story of two generations of railway policemen, the old and the new, passing on from generation to generation. It also reflects the changes of the times and the changing social landscape. In the play, the relationships and experiences of several leading actors are also depressing. Among them, the most disappointing one is Yao Yuling, played by Jiang Yan. Her relationship road is particularly bumpy. Although it is sweet, it does not have a good ending in the end. .
In the past two years, period dramas have frequently appeared in the industry. The previous "人世" not only received great ratings, but also maintained a high reputation of 8.4. It can be seen that good dramas are still popular.
After "South to North", Recently, another period drama is coming. The drama is called " Footprints". The drama focuses on a Western-style house. This forest house is dozens of years old. The changes in life over the years reflect the changes in the current era, the humanistic spirit, and the changing social outlook.
"Footprints" mainly tells the story of a Western-style house in the French Concession in Shanghai in the last century, which was originally occupied by a family named Lin. In the early 1930s, the Lin family was in crisis. Lin Siyun, the daughter of the Lin family, experienced Lin's father becoming ill and being deprived of her inheritance by her brother. After many twists and turns, Lin Siyun turned the bungalow into an obstetrics and gynecology hospital. Lin Siyun's fate has also changed with the times, ushering in a new society.
In the early 1950s, Linzhai became a clothing factory, a public-private partnership. By the 1990s, Lin's house had been turned into a commercial residence. A wedding was supposed to be held here the next day, but the bride and groom ran away due to corruption, and her best friend was also implicated, causing her to be laid off. She and her fiancé went from an iron rice bowl to Forced to go to sea, his fate changed...
It can be said that this forest house has spanned decades of changes in time and personnel, and it is also a microcosm of the changes of the times.
In this drama, Lin Gengxin plays the male lead. It can be said that Lin Gengxin "retired" during the highlight moment. " Chu Qiao Chuan " was a big hit, but Lin Gengxin did not continue filming while the iron was hot. On the contrary, it has made a comeback in the past two years, with one work after another. However, judging from the previous two urban dramas, the quality is not very good. One is "The Bargain Queen", with a score of 2.9, which can be called the king of bad movies in 2021. Another movie has a slightly better reputation. "Call Me Director" has a reputation of 6.5 points, and the quality is pretty decent. However, I think Lin Gengxin is really not suitable to play the role of the boss. He is not domineering enough and makes people look a bit put off.
This time Lin Gengxin challenges the period drama, which is quite interesting. After all, he has always been strong when faced with strong situations. When he met good actors such as Zhao Liying , he was still able to produce a good drama, and his acting skills were pretty good.
Currently, the candidates for the lead female role in the show are Bai Baihe . Similar to Lin Gengxin, Bai Baihe also went through a period of "retirement". He has also filmed many dramas in the past few years. However, Bai Baihe's resources are so good. He has previously cooperated with Xiao Zhan and to film a "" movie. "The Sun Belongs to Me " has a pretty good reputation, with a score of 7.2 at present, and Bai Baihe's acting skills are still there.
In addition, this drama also has Liu Yijun and joining the cast. As soon as I see Liu Yijun, I know that the quality of this drama is stable. It is not an exaggeration to say that Liu Yijun can single-handedly improve the quality of the entire film. After debuting for many years, Liu Yijun is the top actor in the industry. Liu Yijun has contributed outstanding acting skills in previous films such as "Ice Rain and Fire" and "Mature Years". Personally, I think Liu Yijun can handle the ratings of a drama even if he is the male lead.
Currently, "Footprints" is expected to start filming in April. Will you follow this period drama with a good lineup?
