China News Service, Shaoxing, November 2 (Reporter Xiang Jing) "This is the fifth opera film I have made since I became an artist." The Yue Opera film "Chai Tou Feng" premiered a few days ago. As one of the leading actors, China's national first-class actor, Wu Fenghua, the second-time winner of the Chinese Drama Plum Blossom Award, said in an interview.

　　Opera movies are the product of the combination of traditional Chinese opera and film and television art, and the industry also calls it "electric shock".

　　Taking Yue Opera as an example, there have been many works integrated with film art in the history of Yue Opera, such as the first domestic color film after the founding of New China - the Yue Opera movie "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai", a common monument in the history of film and Yue Opera - - Yue Opera movie "Dream of Red Mansions".

　　As one of the most influential local operas in China, how does Yue opera "collide" with film art to create new sparks?

　　Yue Opera is graceful and delicate, and has been included in China's first national intangible cultural heritage list.

In the "electric shock" of Yue Opera, there are many famous actors and actresses with their own "traffic".

　　For example, the Yue Opera films "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" and "Xiang Lin's Wife" have long been famous at home and abroad, and they are both classic masterpieces of "Yue Opera Master" Yuan Xuefen.

　　Take the newly released Yue Opera film "Chaitoufeng" as an example. The film tells the poignant and touching love story between the patriotic poet Lu You and Tang Wan in the Southern Song Dynasty. It is performed by 8 Chinese national first-class actors and winners of the Chinese Drama Plum Blossom Award. Among them, Lu You and Tang Wan are played by Wu Fenghua and Li Min respectively.

　　"This is a kind of 'holding a group', and sings the bright future of Yue Opera together with the counterparts in the Yue Opera industry." In Wu Fenghua's view, "electric shock" is a precious opportunity for opera actors, and "electric shock" is also an "art of regret" ”, “When I watch it, I often think that I can actually perform better and make myself more progress.”

　　"The stage performance is very different from the film expression." According to Li Min, a Chinese national first-class actor and winner of the Chinese Drama Plum Blossom Award, the biggest challenge in film art is how to express the characters delicately in front of the camera. , the more natural the action, the better. So through film art, you can also improve your stage performance.”

　　Relying on the film as a carrier, traditional Yue Opera not only achieves "screen" dissemination, but also vividly expresses regional characteristics.

　　According to records, the love story between Lu You and Tang Wan came from Shaoxing.

Shen Garden, Lanting, West Garden, East Lake, Keyan... In the Yue Opera movie "Chai Tou Feng", many landmark scenic spots in Shaoxing were filmed, and every scene was "movieized", which brought the people closer to Yue Opera and Shaoxing. distance.

　　"Films can completely break through the limitations of the theater stage." Wang Yiyan, the director of the film, said in an interview that opera films can "transfer" local characteristics to the screen, jointly showing the beauty of the region, the beauty of opera, and the beauty of images.

　　Shaoxing has a history of more than 2,500 years and is the birthplace of Yue Opera.

Yang Songzhou, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Shaoxing Municipal Party Committee, secretary and chairman of the Shaoxing Federation of Literary and Art Circles Party Group, said at the premiere ceremony of the Yue Opera film "The Chai Tou Feng" that the film combines sights, humanities, opera, and movies with seemingly unrelated elements. Linked together and integrated to form a whole, it is the embodiment of cultural self-confidence and cultural innovation.

　　Not only "electric shock", Yue Opera, which has a history of more than 100 years, is constantly exploring diversified expressions. For example, a large number of young actors "touch the net" live broadcast, and there are countless fans who sing Yue Opera online; Shaoxing Shengzhou cooperates with the industry to launch "China Good "Voice" special season of Yue Opera, invited the "old man" of Yue Opera as a mentor, and encouraged the "rookie" of the theater troupe to sing on the screen and stage.

　　It can be seen that in the context of promoting cultural inheritance and innovation, the "cross-border" integration of Yue Opera is the trend of diversified dissemination of opera.

But even if the form changes, the connotation of inheriting the essence of innovative opera remains unchanged.
