In 2015, the much-anticipated chivalrous drama "Flower Thousand Bones" began broadcasting, with a peak of 1.4 billion discussions on Weibo on its first night.
With the deepening of the plot, the play became more and more popular, and then quickly became popular all over the country and became a phenomenon-level drama certified by CCTV. The lead actor soared into the sky with this play, even the palace bell, sugar treasure dolls and other surrounding areas are sold out.
Nine years later, the movie of the same name went online, but it was completely different from the prosperous times of the drama version, with poor box office and reputation, and even the gentle six princesses could not help commenting publicly: it was too bad.
The length of the film is limited, it is difficult to build a magnificent structure in less than 100 minutes, the story is not full enough, and even some plots appear very stiff.
This is one aspect of the film's failure, but the more serious bug of the film is that the casting does not match. Comparing the characters of the drama version and the film version, you will find that the most failed casting is not Baizi painting, but the pros and cons have chosen the opposite.
01. Hua Qiangu: Zhao Liying (27) VS Chen Duling (27)
Before acting in "A Thousand bones of Flowers", Zhao Liying was already a little famous, holding the costume drama "Legend of Lu Zhen" and now the occasional "Shanshan coming" was also a little popular.
But at this time, she is not the top class. At that time, the inventory of "85 Flowers" did not take her to play, but it was "A Thousand bones of Flowers" that sent her to the front line, allowing her to nominate the Golden Eagle and Magnolia for Best Actress, which was officially recognized by the mainstream awards.
Hua Qiangu is the last demon god. Before she knew her life background, she had always been a naive, romantic, lively girl with a group of lovely friends and master Baizi paintings that she admired and admired.
Such a sweet role was perfect for 27-year-old Zhao Liying at that time.
Her face was full of collagen, her big eyes were full of spiritual energy, and she smiled sweetly. She had a kind of heartlessness and innocence, which was especially infectious.
Many years later, I still remember her buttoning her face and innocently saying to the white painting, "Master, look, the bones are hungry and thin."
There are also people who dig a radish in the ground, pluck it and start biting it, their cheeks are bulging and their eyes are shining.
After being forced to blacken, she became cruel on the surface, but in fact she still kept the bottom line and remained pure and good all the time.
The makeup is very gaudy and a little shocking at first glance, but she acts out the contrast between before and after by her acting skills.
She is not a member of the class, but her acting skills are always in performance. in fact, the role of silly Bai Tian is not easy to play, but she has a natural expression and does not stare and skip her mouth inexplicably, so she plays Sweet Mei into a ceiling.
Talking about the understanding of the character outside the play, she said that Hua Qiangu is a very naive and simple person, surrounded by a lot of friends who love her, piling up very strong feelings, so when one day these feelings are broken, despair is naturally formed.
For the same question, Chen Turin, who plays the role of Flower Thousand bones in the film version, answered this when asked.
She said that Hua Qiangu's growth experience moved her very much. She had some inferiority complex on her body and was often treated with tinted glasses, but she was brave enough not to be defined by others, which proved that she was also worthy of being loved.
Obviously, Zhao Liying read the original work, but also understood the mental process of the character's growth, from scratch, a little harvest of family affection, friendship, love, and instantly from something to nothing, the heart naturally collapsed.
While Chen Duling seems to take another script, without understanding the tragic core of the character, there is naturally no way to sympathize with the character.
So, you see, after she was blackened, she still showed off a little bit in her eyes, but the bones were forced to blacken.
In addition, Chen Turin's temperament is pure, even a little cold. It has nothing to do with the words lovely, lively and young girl, so it is not impossible for her to act in a white painting, pretending to be free and easy to play a thousand bones of flowers is a little less meaningful.
And she is too thin and dry, as soon as she makes an expression, there are blue plates flying around her neck and the vicissitudes of life beyond age.
02. Baizi painting: Huo Jianhua (35) VS Li Chengbin (33)
At the beginning of the preparation of the play version "A Thousand bones of Flowers", producer Tang Lijun thought a lot about Baizi painting.
Seeing that many netizens recommended Huo Jianhua, she finally locked Huo Jianhua as the candidate for Baizi painting.
But at that time, Huo Jianhua was already tired of acting in costume dramas. He was afraid that he would not be able to surpass Xu Changqing, who was "Xianjian". He was afraid that the heavy character would make him tired of filming.
When his staff read the novel and told him the story, he found that it was different from the bright and hot love he had played before. Baizi painting was an immortal whose heart was tied to life, and he was extremely restrained from love.
So he decided to give it a try, and as a result it became the fashion of the year.
Of course, there were still a lot of complaints at first. after all, there were a thousand white paintings in the hearts of a thousand book fans, and Huo Jianhua did have some hip-pulling, leather-clinging fake headgear, and the thick, unelegant clothes all lowered his appearance to some extent.
Fortunately, his own temperament of abstinence fits very well with the person who painted Baizi. If he is used to modeling, he will naturally be able to get his handsome style.
And the sense of morality with Xiao Gu is also very good, you know, taboo is the best link in master-apprentice love, which is more moving than those who eat easily.
Li Chengbin and Huo Jianhua, who play the film version of Baizi painting, are fellow villagers from Wan Wan. They have previously starred in plays such as "July and Ansheng", "Shanghai Women's Picture Book" and "Agni military Academy". Almost all of them are one man and two men, but they are not well-known.
In the interview, he calmly accepted the role of Baizi painting under great pressure, because Huo Jianhua was like a "Hua Shen" in his heart.
He said that he wanted to move forward to the goal of "Huasen" and made some different interpretations when acting in Baizi painting. But it can only be said that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, courage does not mean strength.
The characters he portrays are thick in shape and lack of immortal style bones.
Although actors are not encouraged to reduce their weight to paper people, it is certainly not good for fairy TV series to think about immortals.
In the film "plum painting" is very strong, the director also gives the audience "extra meals", shot a lot of topless scenes, the picture is very hot eyes.
Looking at his front photo, his eyebrows flew into the sideburns and his eyes were murderous. This was not the cold and reserved Shangxian who guarded the ordinary life. It was clearly the single Spring and Autumn period that would be washed in blood the next second.
03. Other supporting roles are reversed, and their appearance and temperament are contrary to their roles.
The male lead looks like a villain, and other roles are chosen to be inconsistent with others.
The actor who killed the fields is Mao Zijun. Mao Zijun is a handsome actor who has been lukewarm all the time. Many people are angry for his lack of popularity. According to the appearance conditions, he can completely control the Baizi painting.
Maybe he didn't have enough space, so the director refused to let him perform with ready-made white paintings, but let him play in the fields. As a result, his weird makeup turned a handsome guy into a "kill a thousand knives".
In terms of appearance, Mao Zijun is higher, but the degree of completion of this role is higher.
Ma Ke is still far from the indisputable beauty, and when he first met Xiao Gu, he claimed to be the first beauty in the six worlds, but that set of beautiful shapes, light yellow and green gowns, meticulous hair and gorgeous make-up, coupled with his tall stature, looked thin and handsome.
Ma Kejun is four years younger than Mao Zijun, and now he sells chicken claws in the studio every day. Instead of grabbing Mao Zijun to play a role that he is completely unsuitable for, the director might as well find the original actor like Moyan and Yiyujun.
Of course, killing the elder sister is not the only supporting role that doesn't taste right. Xu Mu Chan's neon sky is also a mismatch between face and personality.
This girl has a small round face with a sweet smile and a soft and cute temperament. there is nothing wrong with her sweet makeup to perform thousands of bones and sugar treasures.
The director let her play Ni Man Sky, not only that, but also added skills to Ni Man Sky, making her kill her sister.
The director mainly plays an anti-bone, does not follow the routine to play cards, sugar treasure, light water these supporting roles are also more shocked than the audience.
Tang Bao, played by Lai Meiyun, is shaped like a child in Tianshan, and the actor acts like a silly nun. is a bug about to cut off half his eyebrows? With a frown, all the facial features got together, bitter and bitter.
In the interview outside the play, her modern costume is also cute. I don't know why the stylist killed her in the play.
There was also light water whose posture, figure and face value had not been tested on the big screen. Love beans outside the play, ugly in the play to a new height. She didn't know whether to say that she wasn't suitable for ancient clothes or that the stylist was too cunning. Her hairstyle was almost hairless.
Through the feedback from netizens, it is not difficult to find that the biggest problem with the play is that it has chosen the wrong roles, most of which have been rectified.
Director Zhang Chaoli is the newcomer who is in charge of the film for the first time. I don't know whether the fixed role is capital intervention or his own choice. In short, if the actor's face is not set to the person, and there is no solid script as the support, it is inevitable to hit the street. In 2024, the audience is not so hungry and can not eat everything.
