Chapter 262: Coming as promised
Sun's death has sparked widespread discussion.
The famous film critic Tang Wan wrote an article "On the Death of Sun Desheng".
In the seventh episode, director Xu Qian spent nearly half an episode describing the four head-to-head encounters between the cavalry company and the Japanese cavalry battalion. ”
"For the first time, in the face of the Japanese cavalry battalion of hundreds of people, the whole company set up a formation, dozens of war horses lined up, and each soldier rode on the horse with a sword, and the momentum was violent. The battlefield is flying sand and rocks, dead trees and scorching sun, and there is a slaughter. At this time, the company commander Sun Desheng erected the saber, made a charge, raised his confidence, and issued a military order: "Cavalry company, attack!" As soon as the words fell, the cavalry soldiers shouted to kill the enemy, and the hundred horses neighed in unison, and the whole company rode forward, raising a burst of yellow sand. At the same time, the Japanese also raised their swords and moved forward to engage the cavalry company in short combat. People and horses neighed, swords and swords, and more than half of the cavalry companies of the independent regiment died in one round. ”
The second time, the rest of the men turned their horses' heads and rearranged their formation, and the company commander raised his saber and gave the military order: "Cavalry company, attack." The whole company rode forward. At the same time, the Japanese troops also moved forward to engage the cavalry company in close combat. People and horses neighed, swords and swords shadowed, and there were only a few people left in the cavalry company of the independent regiment in the second round. ”
"The third time, the remaining seven or eight people faced the number of hundreds of Japanese cavalry soldiers, still did not flinch, everyone still set up a formation, in fact, at this time such a few people can no longer form a formation, the company commander raised his saber, pointed forward, and shouted "Cavalry company, attack!" The whole company rode forward. At the same time, the Japanese troops also moved forward to engage the cavalry company in close combat. In this encounter, all the officers and men except the company commander were killed, and the company commander had one arm cut off. ”
"The fourth time, and the climax, was that when all the people around him were killed and one of his arms was cut off, Sun Desheng himself represented an entire cavalry company. The camera swept from behind the company commander to the Japanese army, and the contrast in numbers was extremely strong, and he directly said the sentence "Although there are tens of millions of people, I will go". Then the camera focuses on the company commander's horse, whose hooves begin to tread the sand and rattle with a tense sword. ”
At this time, the captain Sun Desheng raised his saber, faced the enemy of hundreds of people, and when he was alone, he issued a military order to the whole company: "Cavalry company, attack!" Before the shouts fell, the background theme music sounded, and the company commander rode his horse forward, while the entire battalion of the Japanese army also attacked, mighty. The two armies met and were cut down with a single sword, and the company commander was killed. After that, there were only company commanders' horses on the battlefield. ”
Such a tragic and shocking footage has never been seen in previous domestic TV dramas. In addition to the director's feelings, it is very important that he has a keen sense of art and strength. ”
In the early stage, he used a lot of pen and ink to describe Li Yunlong's cherishment of the cavalry company, and then during a back attack, he originally gave the order for the whole army to attack, but when the cavalry company ran and said that it was also ready to attack, he disagreed, and quarreled with Sun Desheng, and later used the cavalry as an infantry and lined up in all troops, and finally allowed it to participate in the battle on the condition of it. After the battle, Li Yunlong and Sun Desheng had a dialogue, saying that your cavalry company was the last to charge, and ran to the front, Sun Desheng said very arrogantly that this is the cavalry company, and then Li Yunlong asked about the casualties, and now there are a few dead and wounded, and said, "The cavalry company is a baby, I feel distressed." ”
Through these preliminary descriptions, the director completed the foreshadowing of the impression of the cavalry company to the audience: precious, strong combat effectiveness, refusal to admit defeat, hard bones, etc., what appeared in front of the audience was a vivid character, so at this time, the cavalry company represented by Sun Desheng was no longer an abstract combat unit, but a person who could be seen and touched. And all this is to pave the way for the sacrifice of the last cavalry company. It should be said that this method of storytelling is due to the meticulous thinking of the director. ”
And after the foreshadowing is finished, it is time to take it out and use it. I privately think that Sun Desheng's last round of charge is the best interpretation of the spirit of Liangjian. Let's take a look at what Li Yunlong mentioned many times about the spirit of the bright sword: "In the face of a strong opponent, knowing that you are invincible, you must resolutely show your sword." And the final lens language application is extremely beautiful:
"By comparing the company commander alone with the entire cavalry battalion, it shows that the opponent is strong and invincible. Sun Desheng broke a hand, knowing that he was invincible, but he did not surrender. Then the saber is raised, representing the bright sword. This is the completion of the theme sublimation. ”
"It can be said that the director's skill is really not something that can be replaced by using the acting skills of good actors or sophisticated props. The acting skills of every regular actor in this play, the design of every action and the lighting of every shot, are telling you stories in their own way. This kind of seriousness, I think is the fundamental reason why the TV series Bright Sword is still better than all anti-Japanese war dramas although the funds are not enough to create perfect props or backgrounds. Seriously, he won. ”
Finally, I added that after Sun Desheng fell in the last encounter, the story was not over, and the Japanese army leader asked for a thick burial of the cavalry company. In addition to showing that our fighting spirit has won the respect of the opponent, it also shows that the Japanese army is no longer the pig-like image in the previous TV dramas. Only by respecting the fact that the opponent is strong can the martyrs who fought bloody battles get the respect they deserve. ”
Tang Wan's comment was appreciated by many people.
Because this comment can be said to be penetrating, reasonable, and well-founded, and all the advantages of "Bright Sword" hidden in the dark are said, this is the real film critic.
"Now when I think about this section of the cavalry company, I still feel like I'm going to cry. ”
"It's really shocking! I was watching it, and I wanted to cry when I talked to my classmates the next day. I just watched the episode of Li Yunlong commanding to take Ping'an County tonight, and I couldn't help myself crying... Hey, the people who shed their blood and sacrificed their lives for the peace of our country should really be remembered! I just hope that China will become strong and that people can look down on it in all aspects! No more being bullied! No more wars!"
"I feel like I see the spirit of the army. ”
"Actually, I feel that one of the highlights of Liangjian is that it is not like ordinary anti-Japanese dramas, which meaninglessly belittle the Japanese. This not only did not affect the highlighting of the heroic spirit of the soldiers, but was respectable and valuable because of its authenticity. This is very evident at the end of this clip. ”
A few simple lines shouted out the soul of the Chinese army. ”
"The bright sword itself also has many flaws, such as the same myth of the Eighth Route Army and the depreciation of the Japanese army, as well as the unprofessionalism and impulsiveness of the commander. But what is more important in this drama is to promote the bright sword spirit in the bones of the Chinese nation, as well as to commemorate the heroes who were not afraid to sacrifice for the country during the years of the Anti-Japanese War, such as the pillars in the play, Wang Xikui, Sun Desheng, and the cavalry company ......"
"Donating one's life to go to the country, seeing death as if it were home. There are countless Sun Desheng in the history of the Anti-Japanese War, and it is their "self-indulgence" that gives us the opportunity to brush our necks. ”
"What is to defend the family and the country, not afraid of sacrifice, this TV is more powerful than any preaching. This spirit of fighting until the last moment deserves our admiration. ”
After the seventh and eighth episodes, the ratings of "Bright Sword" also officially broke four, which can be said to be outstanding.
Now the TV series at the same time as "Bright Sword" are basically food delivery, and as soon as "Bright Sword" comes out, other TV series have to stop cooking, which is the awesome thing about "Bright Sword".
And another climax of the "Bright Sword" TV series also came as promised with the passage of time.
