In China, there is such an actor.
Since appearing in the audience's field of vision, he seems to be the actor who "can't be named but the play is very good".
He is Duan Yihong.
Everyone grinds from small fresh meat to old drama bones, but Duan Yihong seems to have never been a little fresh meat.
Rough, spicy, and wild, although the characters he portrays are different, they all have an unbeatable ruthlessness.
But Pumpkin-kun wants to share with you today one of the most cowardly characters created by Duan Yihong.
However, this role is the highlight of Duan Yihong's career.
This video is-
Blizzard is coming
This is Duan Yihong's second win for the Best Actor Award at the 30th Tokyo International Film Festival after winning the Best Actor Award at the Shanghai International Film Festival for the role of Haru Igu in "Scorching Sun", becoming the first double-A actor in Chinese mainland.
Some people say that this is like the Chinese version of "Memories of Murder".
Like, not like.
The continuous rainy weather, the turbulent social background, and the panicked ** case are all the same.
Song Kanghao in "Memories of Murder" and Duan Yihong in "Blizzard is Coming" have both looked at the audience from the big screen, the former questions about human nature, and the latter questions about the times, which may be the biggest difference between the two films.
This is where the director is powerful, although it is the distance between human nature and the truth, but director Dong Yue has found his own way out.
In 1997, a small city in Hunan. The rain kept falling as if it would never stop.
The weather forecast says that a once-in-a-century blizzard is about to hit the local area, and just when everyone is panicking, there are several brutal serial murders...
In the four murder cases, the victims were all women, and they were all ** killed and then dumped in the wilderness.
All of a sudden, people panicked, and they felt unprecedented pressure.
This case attracted the attention of Yu Guowei (played by Duan Yihong), an officer of the factory security section.
In the factory, Yu Guowei is called - Yu Shentang.
He is shrewd and capable, and the thieves in the factory have just been rated as a model worker, which sounds very reliable.
This case has nothing to do with him, and he wants to investigate the truth not only because of his passion for the case, but also because of a potential selfishness.
At that time, at the time of the reform of the country's economic system, a large number of state-owned enterprises have transformed or stopped production. For those who were Xi to collective production at that time, being laid off meant being broken up.
This trend has gradually blown to Yu Guowei's factory.
The security department is not effective, and it is a matter of time before it is laid off, but if Yu Shen solves this serial murder case, the result will be different, and he may be transferred to the public security bureau to become a real policeman.
With such a thought, Yu Guowei became entangled with this murderer ......
He put down the work at hand and took his apprentice Xiao Liu to squat at the scene of the crime day and night.
With years of experience as a detective, he feels that people like to go back to the places where they are proud.
However, the suspect did not wait, but found a bunch of keys at the scene of the crime, and he printed out the ** of the keys and pasted them on the bulletin board of the factory.
Because he suspects that the suspect is likely to be a worker in the factory, he is extremely confident in his eyesight, believing that if ** sees this notice, he must be flustered, and he will not be able to escape his eyes.
No one expected that after two days of squatting, Yu Guowei really found a suspect. When he wanted to ask him something, the man ran away, and it was clear that this man had a ghost.
This is the most exciting scene in the film, like a labyrinth-like factory, a train car, ** suddenly appears and disappears suddenly, a metaphor for an unknown fear, pounce at any time, and the rainy weather will also present the dangerous excitement on the road to the chase to the fullest.
But how can it be so easy to catch?
The apprentice Xiao Liu was unfortunately electrocuted during the arrest, and he was almost strangled to death with a chain, and in the end, ** disappeared on the road outside the steel mill.
The sudden accident and the wave of layoffs constantly hit Yu Guowei, and the obsession with solving the case made him finally fall into madness, and he even did not hesitate to use his lover Yanzi (played by Jiang Yiyan) as bait to catch the real murderer, so as to fall deeper and deeper, and embarked on a ...... of no return
Can Yu Guowei catch the real murderer?Entering the walls of "within the system" as desired?
As the best work directed by Dong Yue, it is sincere, qualified, and satisfying. He accurately recreated the atmosphere of the industrial city in southern China in the 90s of the last century, not knowing when it would be clear, and waiting for all the workers was a snowstorm that was uncertain when it would come.
As another masterpiece of the actor, he is very breakthrough, the timidity in the early stage, the enthusiasm in the middle stage, and the dazedness in the later stage, Duan Yihong used his acting skills to make us experience the oppression of that era.
There is a scene at the beginning. The police asked Yu Guowei what his name was.
Duan Yihong: Yu Guowei, redundant Yu.
One name outlines the soul of the whole **, a little person who has been "forgotten" by the collective era.
He is conceited and inferior, ridiculous and pathetic, he desperately "chases the murderer", and wants to arrest the ** before the blizzard comes, how is it not a metaphor for struggling to catch up with the trend of the times, he tried his best, but he didn't want to be broken up by the times.
But in the whole environment, the fate of the individual seems very small, let alone him
Yu Guowei, who fell into the abyss of solving the case, Yanzi who strayed into the dust and was still used, and ......, an old criminal policeman who wanted to be relieved and returned to the fieldEveryone in it was unconsciously coerced by the great era, and a lifetime tragedy was caused by accident.
After watching the movie, many people may only sigh: This may be fate, no matter how hysterical you shout, you can't change your fate after all.
In addition to accepting reality and compromising with the big times, we should also see something.
For the hidden wounds of that generation, the pain that could not be shouted, and the enthusiasm that could not be vented in the depths of our hearts, that is what we should pay attention to the most.
