In recent months, viewers have been exposed to a variety of bizarre episodes. In the costume idol drama "Heavy Purple", Yang Chaoyue's eyes are not focused, his facial expression looks very stiff as soon as he appears, and the acting skills of other actors are only at the level of elementary school students, resulting in extremely embarrassing scenes.
The costume detective drama "Nine Heavens Cold and Warm Night" is claimed, but the quality of the case is really commendable, and it all depends on the popularity of the male and female protagonists, but it has failed to get enough attention.
"Summer Flower" is Yan Chengxu's work, although it has become a hot search topic many times, but in fact, the plot rhythm is slow and abnormal, and the overall presentation is a kind of **video tape. The male protagonist is 21 years older than the female protagonist, and the generation gap is obvious when the two are partnered together, which is really uncomfortable.
The new drama "Love Around the Corner" starring Jiang Wenli is on the air, the plot is full of elements of dog-blood cohabitation, and it has encountered bad reviews on Douban one after another, and the audience feels very uncomfortable with the embarrassing age difference in the play.
The biggest selling point of "Love Around the Corner" is the casting, Jiang Wenli has a good reputation as a veteran actress, but it is undeniable that she is over 56 years old, to put it bluntly, under normal circumstances, people of this age may have become grandmothers.
Jiang Wenli doesn't care about this problem, and plays an urban female white-collar worker in the new drama, and her short hair looks particularly mature. Her outfit also reveals a mature and stable temperament, as if she always shows her sophisticated demeanor in taking photos with a scarf held high, and it seems that she has surpassed the age limit of acting in romance dramas.
Even if Jiang Wenli doesn't make too exaggerated expressions, she can clearly see the nasolabial folds and fine lines on her face, and these marks are particularly conspicuous. Despite proper care, these facial imperfections will gradually appear as she ages, reminding her that she has entered middle and old age.
Jiang Wenli cooperated with the male protagonist Ming Dao in the play, and Ming Dao was 13 years younger than her, which means that the age difference between the two is huge. In addition, Mingdao himself has a tough appearance, so he looks younger.
Mingdao's acting skills are too exaggerated, his expression is varied when he eats chicken legs, squinting his eyes and raising his eyebrows to pretend to enjoy it, although it is intended to enhance the sense of joy, but it is really a bit excessive and makes people feel very uncomfortable.
The scene of the two in the same frame is even more worrying. Jiang Wenli doesn't seem to have a clue about this, she always behaves weak and helpless in front of the male protagonist, and it is even a little difficult to stand up straight. In contrast, the male protagonist likes to show off his figure, and the two open the door to take delivery together, which is simply a deadly picture. Such a scene makes people immediately feel the deep love between mother and child.
This old pair of men and women will cause a sensation no matter where they are, and what is even more amazing is some of the interactions between them. For example, when the two of them faced each other for the first time, the male protagonist walked out of the bathroom shirtless and caught the female protagonist who was about to fall in time.
The male protagonist looked surprised, so frightened that wrinkles appeared, and the female protagonist also stared at each other with wide eyes, but stared straight at each other, this scene can be called eye-catching.
This turmoil has not subsided, and it is not only the male protagonist who is obsessed with the female protagonist, but also the male protagonist's friends. Zhang Kai, who plays this role, is 36 years old, and he fell in love with Jiang Wenli at first sight in the play, staring at her intently, everyone should calm down.
In addition to the age difference between the male and female protagonists, the heroine's mother is also involved in the plot. The role of this mother is played by the old drama bone Zhu Yin, who is 64 years old. Therefore, Jiang Wenli wants to call mom to an actress who is 8 years older than herself, will this scene make people laugh?
Over the years, Zhu Yin has been active in film and television dramas, and the audience can see her performance in works such as "Little Shede" and "Golden Years". She has always played the role of the leading character, so the audience's impression of her is also more associated with the image of the elderly.
However, the roles played by Zhu Yin are usually the elders of Ni Ni and Yang Zi, and the age gap is basically around 30 years old, which highlights the differences between the characters more obviously.
Jiang Wenli is 8 years younger than Zhu Yin, she mainly starred in period dramas and dramas, and shaped many classic works. Therefore, the image in the audience's mind is more inclined to the old artist, so there is actually not much difference between her and Zhu Yin.
These two are obviously the same age, and Zhu Yin was directly promoted to mother, so I didn't know who had the upper hand for a while. In the play, Zhu Yin also has to help her so-called daughter solve the dispute with her in-law's family, her fluffy short hair and sloppy short sleeves actually look a little old-fashioned, mainly because of her distress for her daughter and resentment towards outsiders, and her emotional expression is very good.
When the audience watched Zhu Yin's performance, they were willing to believe that she was playing a loving mother, but they were unwilling to think that her daughter was Jiang Wenli, which was unbelievable.
Jiang Wenli's appearance in the play is really indescribable, once she ties that little silk scarf around her neck, she really can't tell that she is not at the level of a grandmother. It feels like she and the girl should be holding a scarf high for a photo together, or holding hands to square dance.
In recent years, we have often seen young people openly admit that they are older than their parents, such as in "Lady's Law", Liu Zhibing is 13 years older, but her aunt calls her father, and she herself calls the actress 12 years older than herself her mother with vicissitudes. It's also remarkable to be able to perform a drama brilliantly in such a situation.
Qin Lan called him a father by Liu Jun, who was 7 years older than herself in "Heirloom", although one played an irresponsible father and the other liked to play a girl, but when they appeared in front of the camera at the same time, there was no obvious sense of generation gap, but it was a bit like a boss and a little lover, and it seemed unnecessary to play hard.
Du Heqian is over half a hundred years old in "Punishment" and is at the age of playing the role of an elder, but her face bears the traces and wrinkles of time, making it difficult to judge who is in worse condition. When she directly called 62-year-old Li Qiang "Dad", she could feel embarrassment even through the screen.
In "Going to a Windy Place", 31-year-old Wu Qian and 41-year-old Hao Wenting play mother-daughter roles, although they don't have many rival scenes, but fortunately, this also avoids the audience's sense of disobedience.
The plot of "Love Around the Corner" is clichéd, full of clichés and bloody episodes, and it is difficult to retain the hearts of the audience. Although Jiang Wenli should be the biggest attraction of the show, the character has a huge contrast with herself, and the audience can't resonate. Even if you have excellent acting skills, it is difficult to make up for this vicissitudes and exhaustion.
In the play, not only two actors fell in love with Jiang Wenli, but even a male actor directly called Zhu Yin his mother. This bizarre plot makes people want to smash the TV. It seems that the mainland entertainment industry really can't find suitable actors to star in dramas. What do you think of the look and feel of this show?
