Editor's note: There are a large number of movies, TV series and variety shows broadcast every week. How to choose, you might as well take a look at the surging recommendations.
【Movie】
This week, many films such as "Hello, Brother", "Tomorrow's War" and "New Big Head Son and Little Head Dad 5" announced the extension of the release to the end of November.
On October 21, according to Beacon Professional Edition, "Homecoming", "Ordinary Heroes" and "Hello, Brother" occupied the top three single-day box office charts.
【TV drama】
"Light Chaser"
The CP fans of "Why Sheng Xiao Mo" can continue to eat. The "Light Chaser" starring Luo Yunxi and Wu Qian is based on the blue sky rescue team as the prototype, with the theme of non-governmental public welfare rescue organizations, and tells a multi-line parallel group drama. The six young people in the play come from all walks of life and from all walks of life.

Director Zhang Tong is the apprentice of director Mao Weining. He is quite handy in shooting realistic themes. In the third episode, the rescue scene of a magnitude 6 earthquake shows his skill. The disaster scene is in a mess and it is terrible to watch. Shocked by sacrificing herself to protect children. But I have to say that the overall rhythm and editing are not tight enough. The earthquake scene should have moved people, but occasionally interspersed with irrelevant dialogues and plots of the protagonists are too disruptive. Overall, the subject matter is good, but the plot and characters are too mediocre.
"Rock and Roll"
Peng Lai (played by Yao Chen) had an operation and ate ice cream cones during the day. The finale might be a bit muddled, but overall he was very restrained, at least he didn't make the daytime call out "Mom" that everyone expected. Some viewers who like rock said that this show has a stereotype of rock, and not all the band players abandoned their families like Penglai and insisted on doing things their own way, and as a rock drama, the music in the play is not good enough. "Rock and Roll" does have flaws in the shaping of the image of the rolling man. Whether it is character design or music, there are all kinds of "stinky problems", but in essence, this show mainly tells about a mother-daughter relationship, a woman's past and growth.
In the end, a conversation between the two in fantasy after Peng Lai's operation is obviously the point of the show. More importantly, Peng Lai is a different mother. Whether in reality or in film and television, although she has not fulfilled her mother's responsibilities for 12 years, she has always been herself, and she is also obsessed with rock and roll. Fortunately, she does her best to live out her own path, and she doesn't stick to the "maternal love narrative", she doesn't sacrifice herself, and she's not great at all.
The dialogue between the two selves in Penglai's fantasy.
Peng Lai is not a "correct" mother, and she even does wrong things many times, but it is precisely because of this that she is so precious. She is the "diversity" that is scarce in film and television dramas where it is easy to be the same as mother's love. No one agrees with Peng. Lai's approach is right, but full maternal love has never been absent in the public discourse space, and even comedy has to strengthen the mundane maternal love that forces children to eat healthy meals. It is the most lacking topic in the current family topic.

"Our Ten Years"
"Our Ten Years" is indeed a main theme work, but it is also a work worth watching. The new "Qianhai" and "Three Meals a Day" have the same advantages as the previous chapters, based on small people, starting from actual emotions, not suspended or inexplicably "high". "Qianhai" is based on young people's entrepreneurial stories, telling the ups and downs of real entrepreneurship, "Three Meals a Day" is based on a small restaurant, and reflects the changes brought by the "eight regulations" through the changes of a restaurant in ten years.
"Love" stills
Of course, the most impressive ones are "Tang Palace Night Banquet" and "Love". There is no rigidity or preaching, only the life of ordinary people, the emotions of ordinary people, vivid and simple.

Short play recommendation
Since the development of short video platforms, short dramas have finally gained a certain degree of visibility. Previously, the release of the Damang short drama "Nian Nian Wuming" seems to have brought hope to the short drama field. There have been several good short dramas recently, and the viewing level is not inferior to ordinary long videos.
"Void"
It is also produced by the team of the Damang short drama "Nian Nian Wuming". "Xu Yan" is also a costume idol drama. It tells the story of two women who changed their faces overnight. Since then, their fate has changed. Not only personal fate, but mainly Changes brought about by emotional lines. It must be said that this team has something. Each episode is about ten minutes, the plot progresses rapidly, and Fuhuadao surpasses many ancient puppet dramas. Although the actors are not well-known, each of them can complete the task well, and almost no one Make people play.

If you like ancient puppet dramas, don't talk, get into the pit, and don't regret it.
"Girls of Gold"
After all, it is a short drama, and there must be strong plot ups and downs, such as the exchange of characters similar to "Xu Yan". "The Thousand Gold Maid" tells the story of a big family being tragically wiped out. Miss Qian Jin managed to survive. She tried to find her fiancé for help, but found that her own maid had taken the lead in taking her place. How can I get my identity back? How can I avenge my family? In the first episode, these threads and questions are thrown, who can refuse!
Stills of "The Thousand Gold Maid"
However, from the production point of view, this one is more suspended than "Xu Yan", and the acting and plot are relatively rough. There are still some exaggerated problems in the early short dramas. . But fortunately, it is also about ten minutes in an episode, and every second of the social animal will never be wasted. An episode can have N reversals and plot points, and it is not a loss to watch a few episodes on the subway.
Tip: In the first episode, the male protagonist generously showed half of his muscles, and his figure is better than that of many young actors.
"The Whimsical World of Floating Life"
This is a more distinctive short play, which is only broadcast on Douyin. The male protagonist is the famous actor Qin Junjie, and the production company is Linghe, who has produced "Soul Ferry".
Linghe has always been good at seeming to be suspended, but it is actually imaginative and has some psychedelic content. "The Whimsical World of Floating Life" shows the strength of a big company. Although an episode is only four or five minutes, it surpasses most in production. Short dramas, especially some scene changes, are not inferior to long video dramas, whether it is special effects or real shooting.
"The Whimsical World of Floating Life" poster
The episodes include "The Queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty", "The Clothes of the Soul", "The Moment of Death", "Lucid Dream", "I Come From High Dimension", "The Creator", "The Algorithm of the Future", "The River of Time", "Spirit of Things", "Non-Player Characters" "Ten fantasy stories, telling that the male protagonist who writes the official account collects various anecdotes about strange people and strange things every week, such as a murderer who claims that his soul can come out of his body, and a takeaway who insists that he is the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty. member. Each unit has four episodes, each episode is less than five minutes, and a total of less than 20 minutes tells an imaginative story. The author is very impressed with "The Queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty" and "The Clothes of the Soul", but it is a pity. If such a story can be made into a growing video, it will be richer and more attractive.
Currently updated to 15 episodes, interesting, well-produced, with guaranteed acting, and imaginative stories, this show proves that good content ideas can sparkle in just a few minutes.

"Warm Hot Pot"

Why choose mud pot? Because the origin of the mud pot is inextricably linked with the Great Wall, not only because the mud pot was handed down from the generals who were stationed in Shanhaiguan at the beginning, but also in the selection of ingredients, the mud pot is also very particular, and the ingredients are full of meat and vegetables.

As soon as her remarks came out, the star observation room directly fried the pot.
