Through thick and thin, a Hong Kong action film, directed by Huang Baiwen and starring Stephen Chow, Wai-Man Chan, Vivian Chow and Fui-On Shing, was released on 1990.
This film tells the story of a washed-up tycoon Li Yunfei (Wai-Man Chan) who is forced to help Boulder (Fui-On Shing) sell stolen goods. Unexpectedly, there was a dispute between the two sides of the transaction, and Gefei fled with diamonds and was boldly pursued. Zhang Lang, an undercover policeman played by Stephen Chow, is asked by his new boss to approach Fei Ge to get the whereabouts of the diamond. In the process of fighting against courage, the Hefei brothers went through hardships and shared weal and woe.
Extended data:
In Stephen Chow's early works, most of them were gunfight films, but his own talent for nonsense comedy was not well known and recognized by the public. Perhaps people only remember his serious and connotative humorous face, but they didn't see his outstanding performance in the classic gunfight class.
This movie gave me a great psychological shock, the strongest of which was the role played by Master Xing, which was the first time he presented to the audience as the first hero in previous movies.
Although the style of the characters has not changed much, and the rascal is full of flavor, the maturity of the mind has surpassed the previous role.
In the past, Stephen Chow was either a punk, in debt, chased all over the street, and his work and life were so-so.
Either he is the assistant of the positive big man, who only knows to do something wrong on some appropriate occasions to show the wisdom and stability of the boss, or he can be classified as a role of sacrifice and failure.
This time, it's completely different. An undercover is usually a wise man with keen insight, moderate relaxation and overall situation in his heart. It is not surprising that he was trapped by a Stephen Chow who only knew how to play a failed role in the early stage.
Master Li saw that he didn't want to go to jail again, so he humbly asked for demotion and went in by himself. A normal person knows that this is a hint to the other party, "Do you want me to be a big police officer if you don't go?" The stars are as lovely as ever. "Well, that's fine with me." In the end, of course, I wronged myself to perform the task again.
I reported to my boss that the undercover mission should be over, complaining about how miserable I was and not wanting to continue. After getting a firm answer, I also returned to my original position. I feel a warm feeling when I see Zhang Lang walking on the road, sorting out the routes used to return to the target. This is the mature principle.
In film and television works, you can feel the role of undercover, and the inner complexity is no less than many roles.
However, unlike infernal affairs, the same road pays more attention to emotional choices. Undercover has deep feelings for its target. As an undercover, on the one hand, you should care about your professional role, on the other hand, undercover is also a flesh-and-blood person, and will inadvertently have an emotional role. The conflict between the two characters is the core of the whole movie.
In this kind of film, most viewers can guess that the emotional role is the last sacrifice, which has reached the climax of plot contradiction. In this process, you need to have enough acting talent and experience to portray such a character vividly.
In the process, Zhang Lang wanted to betray his friend, and he was helped to save his ex-girlfriend who was about to get married. Betraying a friend and marrying a girlfriend are his inner struggles, and they are intertwined at the same time. At the moment when he hesitated to ring the doorbell, I had the feeling of being really brought into the film and tangled together, which originated from every subtle expression and action of Stephen Chow.
Stephen Chow plays an undercover, which is a little touching and loyal. Now the story is a bit old-fashioned, but Stephen Chow's acting skills are incisive.
