costume drama scene is finally heating up!
originally Zhao Liying , Lin Gengxin starred in " and Feng Xing " which laid the foundation for this year's costume dramas, but the subsequent dramas were obviously unsatisfactory and it was really difficult to meet expectations.
But the launch of " Celebrating More Than Years 2" will reverse this trend, not only because the first season has received good word-of-mouth reviews, but the second season will also be a high-quality drama based on the trailer.
There is also "Legend of the Tibetan Sea" that whetted the audience's appetite with just one poster. You don't need to watch the drama to know that this time Xiao Zhan has completed his transformation, transformed from a costume idol, and opened up the ancient costume conspiracy. A whole new way to play.
The theme of ancient costume fairy tales will be released again in "Fox Fairy Little Matchmaker: Red Moon" starring Yang Mi . Although Yang Mi was ridiculed by the spy war drama not long ago, the ancient costume market is her ruling area, and Yang Mi will definitely not It will disappoint everyone.
However, the most popular works are ancient costume suspense. "The Code of Along the River During the Qingming Festival" starring Zhang Songwen, Bai Baihe is a work based on the real historical era.
From the perspective of a small person, we look at the changes of the times, including the cracking of cases and the exposure of hypocrisy, good and evil.
The key is that this drama uses "Along the River During Qingming Festival" as the carrier, which is really refreshing.
1, hide suspense, life and characters in ancient paintings.
There is such a dialogue in the trailer: "People from 1000 years later, can they know from your words that we are a family of five, and they will also know our story. "
"Hide your stories in the paintings. Only the common people can make this painting go down in history and be immortal for thousands of years."
This dialogue comes from the protagonist Zhao Buyu (played by Zhang Songwen) in "The Code of Along the River During the Qingming Festival". ) and Zhang Zeduan (played by An), the author of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival".
For the audience, one is a real person in history, and the other is fictional, but they are connected together because of the painting "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", and the sense of reality suddenly comes.
At the same time, this dialogue also brings out the characteristics of this drama. "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" is an ancient painting that hides suspense, life and characters, and "The Code of Along the River During the Qingming Festival" is to hide the ancient paintings. The 824 characters in the painting have been restored.
The play not only shows the ordinary fireworks life of small people, but also has a suspenseful plot surrounding a case, and the most indispensable part of completing these is the various characters.
The background of the story is during the Xuanhe period of the Northern Song Dynasty. It focuses on a family of five in Bianliang City. Her husband, Zhao Buyou, was the lowest-level clerk in Dali Temple. He only wanted to live an ordinary life, but His wife Wen Yue (played by Bai Baihe) only wants to buy a house and land.
The drama brings the audience into the drama through this noisy daily life, taking everyone back to the prosperous Bianliang City and the simple but lively small family.
But the change came from an accident. Zhao Buyu's family was involved in the sensational Meizhou ship case. As the cases were solved one after another, the family each showed their talents and started to solve the endless problems while solving the case. A wonderful journey of family issues and individual growth.
Therefore, "The Code of Along the River During the Qingming Festival" can be regarded as both a suspense drama and a thrilling but realistic life drama.
It can be said that this drama makes "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" really come alive, and every character seems to have come alive.
2, Zhang Songwen + Bai Baihe, the whole cast is so eye-catching.
The cast is also a highlight of this drama, but judging from the stills and trailers, the actors have changed a lot.
I am used to Zhang Songwen's appearance in modern dramas, but suddenly I feel a little uncomfortable when I see him in ancient costume. However, it is precisely because this kind of appearance is rare that Zhang Songwen looks a little fat after being photographed.
This makes it understandable why actors in costume dramas are trying their best to lose weight. It is obviously to put on costumes that can easily make people look bloated, so that they can have a better visual impression and avoid being complained about being greasy.
However, the role played by Zhang Songwen this time does not require him to have the appearance and temperament of an ancient costume. He plays a low-level person, and he is also a good man who loves his wife and takes care of his family. His somewhat round body makes him appear happier. fat.
Putting Bai Baihe and Zhang Songwen together, it looks much more pleasing to the eye. Previously, when Bai Baihe and Xiao Zhan partnered in " The Sun is with Me ", although it was a sister-brother relationship, the young Xiao Zhan seemed to be the most popular one. The young Bai Baihe looks like an old man.
However, being paired with an actor of a similar age highlights Bai Baihe's advantages, reducing her sense of age and making her look much younger.
Since Bai Baihe doesn't have many opportunities to appear in costume dramas, dressing up in this kind of costume has the effect of giving people a glimpse. Even in plain clothes, you can feel the charm of classical beauty in her body.
In addition, this drama also has Zhang Songwen’s good friends, Yi Yiwei, Lin Jiachuan and other actors to help out. There are a lot of talented actors, and all of them can guarantee the acting level of the whole drama.
But what amazes me the most is Zhang Xinyu, the third female lead in this drama. The character Zhang Qiniang she plays in the drama looks graceful and luxurious in ancient costume. Just her dress and bright makeup make her look extraordinary.
Zhang Xinyu's facial features are very majestic, and she is a beauty with a strong face. After wearing such heavy makeup, she looks even more refined. Although the silver basin-like hair accessory on the top of her head is a bit eye-catching, Zhang Xinyu is still beautiful.
The clothing styles of the Song Dynasty were relatively restrained and not as sexy and open as those of the Tang Dynasty. Although Zhang Xinyu’s costumes in the play are not explicit, coupled with her charming silky eyes and charming posture, it still makes people feel I feel sexy and enchanting.
Just by looking at her appearance, you can tell that the role played by Zhang Xinyu is not simple. Her expression sometimes seems to be smiling but not smiling, which makes people confused. She is obviously not a beauty vase.
Zhang Xinyu has appeared in many costume dramas before. Regardless of whether she is the heroine or not, her costume appearance can outshine all the other girls. It is not a problem at all to portray a stunning beauty. Therefore, in "The Code of Along the River During the Qingming Festival", she is stunning The whole audience was naturally indifferent.
As she gets older, Zhang Xinyu's condition has not gotten worse, but she has actually looked better than before. For a character who is full of wealth and aristocratic air, she does not seem to be old-fashioned in her performance. smell.
This also makes people feel worried for Bai Baihe, who plays the heroine in the play. Although her costume is not bad, she is a bit timid next to Zhang Xinyu. The only advantage is that she has more scenes and is easier to play. It left a deep impression on everyone.
So, are you looking forward to Zhang Songwen's new drama? Did the third female lead played by Zhang Xinyu surprise you?
