In the performing arts, there is a kind of master who is praised as "drama throwing face". This is not to say that they winked or put on a smelly face in front of the camera, but to describe what they acted like. Changing the play is like changing a face, and the shadow of the previous character can not be found at all. This magical transformation is the highest praise for the acting skills of actors.
However, there were experts and there were also beginners. There is a class of actors who, no matter what script they receive, act as if they are "copies" of themselves. When the audience saw it, hey, isn't this still that who? How did you go from one movie to another?
These actors, ah, are not saying that their acting skills are so bad. They may be distinctive in some roles and popular with the audience. But the problem is, they seem to be trapped by their own image, and they can't jump out.
Interestingly, although these "replica" actors make the audience a little aesthetic fatigue, but the film is a lot. It seems that what's going on in show business is really elusive.
Jin Dong: the "eternal" spokesman of the workplace elite
It is said that in the big dye vat of the entertainment industry, everyone is like a colorful fish, each with his own elegant demeanor. Jin Dong, like a goldfish with an elegant posture, can attract the attention of a large wave of fans no matter where he is.
In those days, Jin Dong was a handsome young man with a tall figure and a handsome face. He was simply a walking hormone. His performance in the play is also commendable, from the supporting role all the way through, and finally sat on the throne of the protagonist.
In 2015, a "camouflage" made Jin Dong a complete hit. He plays the role of "Ming Lou", dressed in a suit and handsome back, is simply a model of the elite in the workplace. Since then, Jin Dong seems to have been "trapped" by this role, and no matter what he plays, he cannot escape this image.
"Ode to Joy,""The First Half of My Life,""Elite Lawyer"... When you see Jin Dong in these dramas, do you have a feeling of "deja vu"? Yes, he is like a never-ending spokesman for the elite in the workplace, no matter in which drama, he is the successful man in a sharp suit and a shiny back.
By 2023, Jin Dong still did not escape this "spell" in the new drama "in spite of the Wind." Although Tang Dust, played by him, has changed from a big boss to a middle-aged man overnight, after making a comeback, he is still the familiar recipe-suit, back, business talk, public relations. As long as the shape is changed and the mouth moves, all the problems can be solved easily.
To tell you the truth, this kind of "formulaic" acting skills will really get tired of watching too much. The audience also wants to see more possibilities for Jin Dong, rather than being trapped in the framework of the workplace elite forever.
In fact, Jin Dong also tried to make a transition, such as playing Lin Chen in Nirvana in Fire. But unfortunately, as soon as the shape came out, it was complained to pieces by the audience. Maybe he was hurt so deeply that Jin Dong never tried a similar role again.
Huang Lei: from screen idol to variety chef, where is the road to acting?
Back then, Huang Lei was popular in the entertainment industry, and his debut was the pinnacle. Having made a movie and played Xu Zhimo, with elegant medium-long hair and a handsome face, he is simply Prince Charming in the hearts of young girls. At that time, Huang Lei was in his prime and had a bright future.
However, the pig-killing knife of years did not let him go. Huang Lei, a middle-aged man, has gradually put on weight, and has become the "fat uncle" from the hero of the idol drama at that time. However, this did not affect his status in the entertainment industry, but allowed him to find a new way out-variety.
Take his daughter to participate in "where are you going to Dad 2", Huang Lei's "good father" image is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Then he took part in the extreme Challenge and became a shrewd and cunning "old fox". Then to "yearning for Life", he is the embodiment of the superb culinary skills of "Huang Xiaochu", let the audience see his versatility.
Variety makes Huang Lei famous, please climb to another tall building, but it also brings trouble to his acting skills. In plays such as "Little Joy" and "Little parting", Huang Lei's characters are good men who are "at home", considerate to their wives and close to their children. This role setting confused the audience and felt that everything he played was the same-as if he were acting as he was.
When he arrived at the TV series "County Party Committee Courtyard", Huang Lei's acting problems were finally exposed. He plays the county party secretary Lu Qingshan, the only way to show helplessness is to frown and pretend to be deep. This superficial performance made the audience see at a glance that he had no understanding of grass-roots life and was acting entirely on the basis of feeling.
As a result, the bullet screen and comment area became the hardest hit areas for netizens to complain about Huang Lei's acting skills. From acting to variety shows, Huang Lei's acting path seems to be getting more and more biased. But then again, who hasn't had a trough yet? The key is to see if we can adjust the direction in time and get back to the beginning.
From "national wife" to "national mother-in-law", how does Zhang Kaili's acting career get narrower and narrower?
On the big stage of entertainment circle, some people are in their prime as soon as they go out, while others find their own position through vicissitudes. Kelly Zhang, a former drama actress, rose to fame with her TV series Desire. Her acting career has been ups and downs, full of controversy and twists.
Back then, when Zhang Kaili was in the coal mine art troupe, she probably never dreamed that she would be popular all over the country because of a TV series. At that time, she was wearing an apron, interpreting the life of ordinary people on the stage.
And it is this simple and unadorned that brightens the eyes of Zheng Xiaolong, the director of "longing", and makes her the heroine. After the play was broadcast on television, it quickly became popular all over the country. As a result, Zhang Kaili won the Golden Eagle Award for best actress and became the "national wife" in the hearts of the audience.
However, time flies, and time flies. With the growth of age, Zhang Kaili's role has also changed. She gradually changed from "national wife" to "national mother-in-law".
At first, the audience was quite comfortable with the change. after all, actors need to constantly try new roles to challenge themselves. But as she played more and more mother-like roles, the audience began to experience aesthetic fatigue.
Why did this happen? It turns out that almost all of Zhang Kaili's plays are modern urban dramas, and her roles in the plays are the same, either the mother of the man or the mother of the woman. And her acting style has become more and more stylized, staring, frowning and shouting when she is angry. This kind of performance makes the audience more and more bored.
What makes the audience even more dissatisfied is that Zhang Kaili always creates her own "performing artist" in front of the media. When filming "the World", the director proposed to centralize her parts for the convenience of actors and filming. But this proposal was decisively rejected by Zhang Kaili, who insisted on shooting in the order of the script.
So, in the course of filming, she went to Changchun nine times. This was supposed to be the job of an actress, but with the popularity of "the World", the media praised Kelly's "dedication" one after another. This made many viewers feel dissatisfied, thinking that she was just hyping herself.
In an interview, when Zhang Kaili is asked relevant questions by a reporter, she always answers with the attitude of "old drama bone". She stressed that as a writer and artist, she should settle down to create, work in a down-to-earth manner, and not just think about making quick money.
There was nothing wrong with the passage itself, but it was ironic when it came out of her mouth. Because in the more than 30 years since her debut, she won the most valuable acting award at that time. After so many years, her acting skills have declined rather than improved. Can this also be called "meticulous work"?
Liu Tao: from the rookie on the screen to the "professional household of strong women", the acting school still repeats itself.
In those days, Liu Tao was like a fresh wind blowing into our field of vision. At that time, she was Hu Xingzi, the smart and capable wife of the third family in the TV series "Foreign wife Local Lang". The white red face smiles like the spring sunshine, which makes people like it as soon as they look at it.
Before long, Liu Tao was transformed into a Burmese princess in "returning Pearl III: heaven and Earth". The gorgeous turn really brightened people's eyes, as if to see the infinite possibilities on her.
In the following days, Liu Tao seems to have turned on screen brushing mode, and she is seen in one TV series after another. Bai Suzhen in the Legend of the White Snake is so beautiful that people can't help but want to cheer for her.
At that time, Liu Tao was like a clear stream in the performing arts circle. His acting skills were naturally unaffected, and his roles were changeable and not repeated. But what about the last few years? It felt like she was trapped in her own "strong woman" mode and couldn't get out.
Since Ode to Joy, Liu Tao has become the spokesman of Andy, a returnee with high intelligence. She was really amazing at that time-the charm of mature women was interpreted incisively and vividly by her. But from now on? It feels like Liu Tao has fallen into Andy's circle and can't get out.
In every show, she has the same hairstyle and costume-a capable workplace outfit with black high heels has become her standard. The eyes of people are going blind! What kind of show is this?
What is even more unbearable is that Liu Tao's acting skills are also beginning to decline. Either he was shouting at the top of his voice as if he were working too hard, or a paralyzed face was expressionless. People really want to ask her: Liu Tao, what's the matter with you? Is this still the smart you you used to be?
Jiang Shuying: from the bright eyes of "Youth" to the insipid acting skills, how does the Goddess of Resources break the game?
When the TV series "to our lost Youth" was all the rage, Nguyen, played by Jiang Shuying, was like a touch of bright color in spring, unforgettable. The white face and the soft temperament of the water village in the south of the Yangtze River seem to bring the audience back to the green campus time.
Ruan Guan's character seemed strong and calm on the outside, but the twists and turns on the emotional road made people sweat for this girl. Even when she died unexpectedly, many viewers felt deeply reluctant for her.
It is with this role that Jiang Shuying won many awards such as Best New Actor Award at the 8th Asian Film Awards. In the days that followed, her acting career was at its peak, resources rolled in, and opportunities for collaboration with many acting actors came in succession.
However, just when everyone was expecting more surprises from the sparse film of Jiang, the problem quietly emerged. Audiences found that in any play, Jiang Shuying's expression was as similar as copy-and-paste, and his acting skills seemed to fall into a fixed pattern.
That kind of coy, can not let go of acting skills, and often appear empty eyes, people seem to be watching an advanced AI face-changing show.
What is even more regrettable is that in the opposite play with those acting actors, Jiang Shuying often seems inadequate, and sometimes even difficult to catch each other's on-the-spot performance. After this situation has happened many times, people can't help but question her acting skills.
But even so, Jiang Shuying's film and television resources are still enviable. This may be because she is well-connected in the circle, or it may be because she has a unique charm that other actors do not have.
But in any case, for an actor, no matter how good the resources are only temporary, what really gives him a foothold in the show business is his excellent professional skills and enterprising spirit.
Liu Mintao: From "Big Sister" to "Drama Mix", Acting Rollover Leads to Hot Discussion
On the stage of the entertainment industry, actors rotate like lanterns, each taking the lead for several years. However, Liu Mintao, the actress who once won the audience with her steady acting skills, has recently encountered the "Waterloo" of acting skills.
Back in those days, Der Spiegel in the camouflage was graceful and elegant. Liu Mintao interpreted the role to such an extent that viewers affectionately called her "Big Sister" on Weibo.
Subsequently, the static concubine in Nirvana in Fire made her more popular, and the image of the low-key, patient and gentle concubine was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
However, the good times did not last long. Liu Mintao's performance at a party completely subverted her image in the audience. The song "Red High heels" was supposed to be a charming song, but it was performed by her with white eyes and affected voice. Netizens joked: "Sister, what's the matter with you?"
Perhaps having tasted the sweetness of "Flying self", Liu Mintao became more and more daring in his follow-up film and television works. In "the Home of Life", she plays the role of a mother who is supposed to be strong and wise, but she winks, noises and sharpens her eyes, and she gets rid of an "old woman" in the market. And in "Youth", she is a should be unfathomable, not angry female president interpretation of the eyebrow, slightly tipsy, let people look at the "hot eyes".
This hard acting made audiences who had liked Liu Mintao because of their acting skills expressed disappointment. One netizen commented: "I used to think you were a powerful actor, but now it seems that you are just a 'drama punk'."
The competition in the entertainment industry is indeed fierce, and the age problem also makes the acting path of some actors become narrower and narrower. But that doesn't mean you can treat your acting at will. After all, the audience's eyes are discerning. If he goes on like this, he will only play himself, Liu Mintao is afraid he will completely lose the love and support of the audience.
