How to evaluate Nanjing's local drama "11 Minsheng Lane"?

Just finished watching this play at Nanda Xianlin Campus, it was very touching and poked the tears many times. The play is about the sorrows and joys of the old Nanjing people, a group of childhood friends, and their longing and waiting for their old house when they grow old. This drama reminds me of a TV series about the old Beijing people's wait for the courtyard, also the old house. In fact, it reflects the same theme. Watching this drama also reminded me of The Voodoo Club, which I watched in Beijing. There have been many similar plays in Beijing reflecting the lives of old Beijingers. In contrast, other cities have not done enough to present their culture in the form of drama. This play is a good start: the play is full of strong "Nanjing flavor": the lanterns of the Qinhuai River; the zongzi tied with different colored ropes; various Nanjing snacks (old lo mein, oil dregs), dialogues with Nanjing accents and Nanjing dialect ...... It lets people see: Nanjing has, not just duck blood fan soup only ...... theme: three old men's gay friendship (well, neighborhood love), interspersed with reflecting the daughter and the father's affection, the old Nanjing on the old mansion's love of old feelings. The overall emotional conflict is not complicated, very neat. It may be slightly rough, but it's pristine and clean. "Don't leave me alone" is sobering. Perhaps people with different childhood memories and life experiences will find different tearful moments in the drama.

For some of the lines in the drama, I think it's important to try to stick to the idioms of the people of that era. For example, a couple of "Guoqing" said, "Do you like Bai Xue". I'm afraid that people born in that era (after 50) would not say words like "like" or "love" to express their feelings, but would say "Are you interested in someone else? Are you interested in them?" I don't think the script writer is a good writer. I think the script writer is probably a young man - at least younger than a couple of nationalities. Though he has tried his best to stay close to the lives of the post-50s, it may be debatable whether the real post-50s will be ****ed off when they go to see it in a small place. Regarding the plot could have been deepened and mined further. These people in the drama separated for 40 years, the drama focuses on two ends: before the separation of childhood, when they went to elementary school, and after the separation of the reunion of feelings. So, if the feelings are so deep, why haven't they seen each other for 40 years? What are the twists and turns of each person's experience in between, and what are the vicissitudes of the world? Although one play cannot tell all, perhaps it can be mined a bit. For historical comparison: from "reading Chairman Mao's quotations and singing songs" to today's fashionable and beautiful women, square dance, and Little Apple ...... the historical changes in the middle may also be worth digging into. 3. The twist may be a little abrupt. Ma Guoqing's laboratory tests were wrongly taken, the same name, same surname, same gender, different age. This kind of bridge seems to be more common in some comedy dramas. So it still looks unnatural and clumsy.4. The ending is a bit rushed. The whole drama is divided into spring, summer, fall and winter acts according to the seasons, but the winter act is only about playing chess and talking on the phone, and then it's over. Couldn't it be richer? Of course, the play has already done a good job. It's hard to ask Nanjing's local dramas to catch up with those classic dramas of Hanyi. However, this play at least allows Nanjing, the cultural center of Jiangnan, which echoes Beijing, to have a place in the drama reflecting the city's style.
