Looking at the photo above, I couldn't help but nod my head.
Not just any professional villain can play a villain.
For example, the villain in "Sowon" cannot be an evil-looking actor who appears to be a villain at first glance.
Because children are not fools, it is natural to judge people by their appearance.
Moreover, the effect will be greatly reduced, so this villain cannot give people the impression that he is a villain at first glance. At least when he first appears, the child is deceived and must be consistent with reality and logic.
And Zhuo Yixiong obviously understood this, so on the list of suitable candidates selected for Li Yi, none of these actors were the type who were born with evil looks.
Another point, I have noted it, is the kind of actor who does not have children at home, or whose children have grown up.
Relatively speaking, this type of actor doesn't have that much worry.
Li Yi prefers one of the actors named Zhao Chunhua.
Chunhua is a professional villain in the true sense, but what is interesting is that he does not look like a villain. On the contrary, judging from the photos, Zhao Chunhua actually has a very ordinary face.
But this is a real professional villain. He has been acting in movies for more than 20 years, but he has never been a positive character in any of his movies.
Originally, Li Yi thought that this time, he still needed to pay a visit, but after Zhao Chunhua received the invitation, he directly agreed.
Of course, auditions are still required.
Soon Zhuo Yixiong made an appointment with Zhao Chunhua to audition.
"Teacher Zhao, if you have any concerns about this character, you can raise them directly." Li Yi took a shot first.
"To be honest, I did have some concerns at the beginning. After all, although I have played many villains, this is the first time I have encountered such a 'demon' character." Zhao Chunhua spoke slowly and gave people a sense of humor.
He doesn't feel like a villain at all.
"However, I am an actor. It is an honor for me, Director Li, that you are willing to give me the opportunity to act in your play. However, I am worried that I will not be able to perform well in this role... After all, even if it is a role like this,
I don’t dare to get involved in the drama either..." Zhao Chunhua said with a bitter smile.
Li Yi nodded. Indeed, there are some characters that actors can play, and they can even find similar prototype characters to communicate with and learn from.
However, the actions of the character Zhao Shun in the movie can be said to make both humans and gods angry.
Emotionally, it is difficult for people to be willing to contact such people. Of course, this refers to normal people.
"Come and act this part!" Li Yi took out a script and handed it to Zhao Chunhua.
In fact, in the film, the criminals did not appear many times, and they pretended to be innocent every time. Only when they met Suyuan's father did they truly show what it means to be worse than a beast!
And this scene is also the one that best highlights his "evil" side in the entire film.
Zhao Chunhua took the script and started reading it.
After a long time, he took a deep breath and said, "I can do it!"
He said calmly: "Because I can't remember it at all, and I'm feeling panicked."
Then he frowned slightly: "Yeah, I can't remember things when I drink. I can't remember, but it forces me to think about it, and my head hurts!"
"If I really did that, I would be damned..."
"Are people who do this kind of thing to children still human? They are worse than pigs and dogs!"
Then he raised his head and looked at Li Yi and the others: "Are you here to reconcile?"
"If we can reconcile, I would be very willing..."
"..."
To be honest, Li Yi and Zhuo Yixiong felt creepy when they looked at Zhao Chunhua's calm expression.
Especially when he said: "Speak with respect. Who does she look like with her clever look? Now she looks like her father."
"If you are smart, think carefully. How long do you think I can stay here? I will get out one day!"
He raised his eyebrows, still looking extremely calm.
But this makes people feel even more horrified.
"Teacher Zhao, you are really creepy!" Li Yi couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Huh..." Zhao Chunhua let out a long breath.
Then he shook his head and said: "Director Li, to be honest, the most difficult part of this role is that I am afraid that I will fall into the role..."
"That's terrible!" Zhao Chunhua shook his head and said.
"Don't worry, Teacher Zhao, your role in this movie won't have too many scenes..."
After the villain role is decided.
The main actors of the crew are ready.
This kind of movie needs to arouse the emotions of the actors, so the best way to shoot is to shoot in the order of the content of the movie.
Fortunately, it may be a problem for others, but for Li Yi, he has always shot like this.
The difficult part of the movie "Sowon" is the emotional fluctuations.
It should be gradually followed by the content of the movie.
At the same time, Suyuan's scene was the most difficult to film. After all, the impact on the children had to be taken into consideration.
In other aspects, it is much easier than many movies.
There are actually not many scenes involved.
This is also a characteristic of realistic-themed movies.
The biggest problem with this type of movie is the change of emotions at each node.
For example, the emotional changes of each character at these points are before and after Suyuan's accident, the initial trial, the process, and the final judgment, etc.
This movie is similar to "The Gift of Room 7" to some extent.
However, "Gift from Room No. 7" will also have some comedy elements interspersed with it, but "Sowon" does not.
The perspective of "Sowon" is different from other reality-themed movies.
This movie only briefly touches on plots such as the trial, and focuses more on how to heal Suyuan's psychological trauma.
The parents in the movie, Suyuan's childhood sweetheart, Fatty and her friends, uncles, aunts, and psychologists all know how sinful things like this are, and they all want to do their best to make this lovely girl get better.
What it tells from beginning to end is just the reaction of those around an underage girl after she is sexually (harmoniously) assaulted, and how the little girl herself changes in the face of such a life tragedy!
The breaking point of the story focuses on Suyuan's father.
Therefore, in this scene, Chen Wen has a lot of scenes, and he also needs to show the most acting skills.
Chen Wen had already begun preparations.
He deliberately visited several families who had experienced it.
The reason is that he hopes to be able to control his role as a father.
This role is more challenging than "The Pursuit of Happiness".
"Sowon" did not hold a press conference with much fanfare.
Instead, it was launched on Hong Kong Island in a low-key manner.
