The TV series "Parents' Love" has been on the air for nine years, but its wonderful performance is still unforgettable, and no one can surpass it.
However, as the show returns on stage, the situation becomes more and more complicated.
Dong Jie, Li Guangjie and other first-line actors worked hard to accurately restore their roles, but they were never able to achieve the outstanding performance of their predecessors Mei Ting and Guo Tao.
The stage and the screen have their own unique features, and the classics are even more difficult to reproduce.
The complexity of An Jie's role is extremely prominent, and the actor needs to be carefully polished in terms of external image and inner world in order to interpret it perfectly.
Dong Jie and Mei Ting played this role in the stage play and TV series respectively, but they ended up leaving a completely different impression on the audience.
Dong Jie is known for her cold appearance, but once she ties her hair into a double ponytail and puts on her school uniform, the original stunning will disappear without a trace.
Mei Ting, as a middle-aged actress, still exudes a youthful and energetic temperament, so that the audience has no sense of disobedience at all.
This is due to the difference in the appearance of the two. Dong Jie has a thin face and is easy to show a sense of indifference, while Mei Ting is slightly plump, which can better bring out the girl's sense of youth.
In addition, in terms of acting, there are also significant differences between the two in this regard. There is no doubt that Dong Jie's acting talent is outstanding, and she is able to capture the changes in the character's emotions brilliantly.
Her style is more restrained, which is somewhat inconsistent with the outgoing and arrogant girl character An Jie.
Mei Ting skillfully handled a large number of details to make An Jie closer to life and fuller. She is very apt about the shame of making mistakes, the yearning for love, and the wisdom of growing up.
In terms of shaping the inner depth of the characters, Dong Jie seems to pay more attention to language expression, and not enough attention to the changes in An Jie's inner world.
For this reason, her performance seems a bit stiff and does not penetrate into the depths of the character's heart, leaving a superficial impression on the audience.
Mei Ting successfully expressed An Jie's inner journey from arrogance to maturity with subtle eyes and tone changes, which touched the hearts of the audience even more.
In general, Dong Jie and Mei Ting have both shown advantages in their respective areas of expertise, but in terms of the complex character An Jie, Mei Ting's performance is obviously better.
She skillfully integrates the external image and inner emotions organically, so that this character is vividly displayed in front of the audience.
It also gives us the lesson that actors should focus on framing characters from multiple perspectives, both on the outside and on the inside. Only by truly cultivating both inside and outside can we deduce a three-dimensional and full role.
Li Guangjie and Guo Tao have played the role of Jiang Defu in stage plays and TV series respectively.
The two are very different in appearance and performance, which leads to a very different visual experience for the audience.
Li Guangjie has outstanding appearance, tall figure, clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, giving people the feeling of a rich child.
Jiang Defu, who was born in the countryside and has a low level of education, has formed a strong contrast with it.
Li Guangjie's whole person exudes an aristocratic atmosphere, not at all like a peasant who works the land.
The environment and set of the stage play are quite simple, and the performance of the actors is required to highlight the characters.
However, due to Li Guangjie's conditions, it is destined that it is difficult for him to portray the temperament of Jiang Defu, a rural man.
The scene setting of An Jie and Li Guangjie at first sight is not very coherent, which puts forward extremely difficult requirements for Li Guangjie's performance.
In comparison, Guo Tao's conditions are more in line with Jiang Defu's setting. His appearance is ordinary, and he does not give people an overly strong sense of external contrast.
His calm and heavy personality is very suitable for the role of Jiang Defu. In the context of the well-crafted TV series, Guo Tao's image naturally shows the simple and hard-working temperament of rural men.
When Mei Ting stands with a delicate and quiet person, the contrast between the two is very significant, which is also more conducive to the audience's acceptance of the relationship between the two.
The audience was deeply moved by Guo Tao's portrayal of Jiang Defu's straightforward and honest character, which was very vivid.
Although the screenwriter was not optimistic about Guo Tao playing the leading role at first, he greatly appreciated his performance and thought that it was difficult to find a more suitable candidate than Guo Tao to play Jiang Defu.
The audience's perception of the same character can vary greatly depending on the performance of different actors, which fully proves the importance of an actor's talent and appearance in character building.
This also means that the same role can show richer and more diverse connotations under the interpretation of different actors, thus bringing a new vision of interpretation to the audience.
A great performer can use his or her qualities and performance skills to break through the audience's stereotypes and dig deeper into the character's full potential.
As an actor, this is also the highest level. We hope to see more actors bring new interpretations of familiar characters through their efforts, bringing a refreshing feeling to the audience.
The role of Jiang Yafei plays a very important role in the original book, TV series and drama adaptation.
She is a typical post-80s rebellious girl with a flamboyant personality, outspoken, and a complicated relationship with her parents.
The portrayal of this character puts high demands on the actors, and Yafei's personality must be shown through various details such as expressions and tones.
Zhang Lingxin played this role in the TV series ** Sedi.
She vividly presents the image of an energetic and rebellious young girl, and at the same time handles the relationship with Mei Ting's mother An Jie very appropriately.
When Zhang Lingxin and Yafei were quarreling, Zhang Lingxin's eyes and tone changes vividly expressed Yafei's inner disobedience and rebellion, which happened to fit the environment in which she grew up in an artistic family.
On the contrary, Lou Yixiao's performance in the drama version is surprising.
The issue of makeup is the primary consideration, Lou Yixiao's face obviously has traces of silicone filling, coupled with wearing inferior wigs, which directly causes her to stand with Dong Jie without the feeling of a mother and daughter.
Lou Yixiao also has problems with acting, her facial expression is single, and it is difficult to show the complexity and changeability of Yafei's inner world. Coupled with the limitations of stage effects, her acting skills cannot be comparable to Zhang Lingxin.
Therefore, through this contrast, we can clearly see that the choice of actors is crucial for the work.
Different actors' interpretations of the same story and character can have very different effects.
A superb performance can give a character a lifelike charm, and an actor's inappropriate choices can also lead to the failure of the entire production.
Although TV dramas and stage plays are unique in their own way, we should not compare them with preconceived notions.
The key is to appreciate the unique charm of each art form.
Looking forward to the birth of more outstanding works, whether it is a TV series or a stage play. Who can say that it is impossible for a new work to surpass the classics?
Let's be open-minded and discover the brilliance of each work.
