"Chasing the Dragon 2" still smashed.
originally had "Chasing the Dragon 1" and then "Wushuang", which gave us a new hope for Hong Kong movies.
Looking at it now, I am afraid that "Chasing the Dragon 2" represents the true level of today's Hong Kong movies.
"Chasing the Dragon 2"
Actually, if we put "Chasing the Dragon 1" and "Wushuang" in the glorious era of Hong Kong movies, we will find that these two films are just general works.
is just the familiar taste that makes many people raise their hands.
Many people commented that "Chasing the Dragon 2" has nothing to do with acting. But as far as I can see, this is just an illusion that has been set off by a thin plot.
"Chasing the Dragon 2"
Seeking truth from facts, "Chasing the Dragon 2" can be called a star-studded internet movie.
The sinking of Hong Kong movies is not a matter of ten or eight years. Everyone was concerned before; is there any day when Hong Kong films will revive?
Looking at it now, the real practical question is: Where is the bottom to sink?
"Chasing the Dragon 2"
In Dou Wentao's talk show "A Book of the Road 2", there is a recording background in Hong Kong. The guest invited is Carina Lau.
Carina Lau talked about such a topic in the program. Back then, Chow Yun-fat, Tony Leung, Andy Lau entered the Hong Kong film scene after short-term training in the wireless training class.
Andy Lau, Louis Koo
and Dou Wentao asked Carina Lau that the glorious Hong Kong movie stars did not receive professional training such as mainland actors. Why do they and the entire Hong Kong film industry have such high achievements?
According to Carina Lau’s answer, they are learning while shooting, improving their acting skills in practice.
Zhou Yunfa, Tony Leung
And the next question, Dou Wentao could not bear to ask: So why are Hong Kong actors not working now?
Indeed, so far there is still no serious university in Hong Kong with a major in acting. There is no such thing as Chinese opera and Beijing Film, the Whampoa Military Academy in the entertainment industry. The younger generation of Hong Kong artists still came from training courses.
But this time and then also.
Leung Ka-fai
The mainland film and television industry in those days was nothing compared to Hong Kong. The works produced each year are not as small as TVB.
The young actors in Hong Kong, although they have never learned performance theory and do not have much acting skills, can stand on the giant wheel of the entire film and television industry and go down unstoppable.
is now 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi. In contrast to the explosive growth of the mainland's film and television industry, Hong Kong's entertainment industry has been far behind.
"Chasing the Dragon 2"
take a look at the current students of the Chinese Opera and Beijing Film Performance Department. From the beginning of the freshman year, they have entered the crew, run the dragon and participated in the performance. There are even young stars who have become famous.
not only has professional training, but also has the blessing of powerful resources. The comparison between mainland and Hong Kong actors has long been judged. In fact,
is not just about actors. Hong Kong's directors, screenwriters, props, and stage management are all partisans who are renunciations. Compared with the regular army in the mainland, it is not on the same level at all.
"Chasing the Dragon 2"
For decades, the Hong Kong film industry has not improved at all in terms of personnel level, professional ability, and financial strength. But it also lost one of the most important advantages: cultural influence.
remember that when TVB dramas were rampant in the mainland, the audiences were envious of the costumes, conversational temperament and lifestyle of the characters in the drama.
"Infernal Affairs" Tony Leung and Andy Lau
In that era, Hong Kong film and television dramas represented the forefront of fashion trends. It is a cultural pioneer who can only stand up to the mountain, unattainable and difficult to imitate.
The entire mainland is in a kind of worship and look up to Hong Kong and Taiwan. Speaking in Taiwanese accent, long hair, bell-bottom pants, and sunglasses are the rituals of urban youth.
"The True Colors of Heroes" Chow Yun-fat
is the most interesting thing is that to describe something trendy and fashionable, the word "Hong Kong" is used. For example: "You have a good hairstyle." With such a strong cultural influence, Hong Kong films can naturally sweep the mainland and even radiate the entire Southeast Asia.
And these glorious years are gone foreverBack.
