Hmm In Most Chinese historical dramas women are the most suffering , they didn’t have any rights , were slaves…
For example I can't believe women could just open stores and walk around alone outside it is not fantasy it was more or less common, for merchant class and other class. not for nobility, and all historical record were written by nobility about themself, you'll barely find record on life of merchant and other class.
The blind princess, i like to see how they pull this off, or they will find some miracle fluid to cure her. it would be much interesting to see a blind character. ...।
after a long time, it might be a drama that did not forcing me to watch, it is a drama that saying ''COME & SEE'' EP1 remind me time of my childhood, when we think every thing is possible.
I loved Bai Lu's work, her acting much more alive, compere to this, she was just a stone.
ok, it is just EP4, i hope every ep is as good as this 4 ...।
oh, god, anther one, we usually save games to a point, to restart again. i saw people to use 'reborn' to describe this type of plot, but i thing 'RESTART' might be much batter description. and only in last one year there might be like 2-5 drama i saw with this plot.
at this point there much not to say about this drama, just few things for over all 5EP. from 1st scene FL is on run, so many things within 5EP, we have, accidentally fall into river, cruel aunt and uncle, pregnancy, over shelf impotent fiance, court case, domestic violence and traditional psychopathic serial killer. it would be batter if they had put all of this thing in 8 to 10 EP
at EP5 i was not surprise by Uncle and Aunt behavior when you see other people as Object, you will begin see your own as Object in some point ...।
even though, there are too many time travel and reborn drama out there, and many are in wait list. way too many, and because of censorship, they becoming creative to find new way for time travel and reborn
1st thing 1st, Hidden Love and The First Frost is not same drama. 2nd thing 2nd, L cast doing fine what they require to do.
The First Frost has its own problem, to know the problem, we need to see wider C entertainment industry's approach to Modern drama, and there approach to adaptation of a novel.
approach to Modern drama, they mostly take two opposite detection, it either sunshine and rainbows or it is sad and gloomy tone. or it is heavily professional base. The First Frost's story line as far as it going it suppose to go some were in middle. not sunshine and rainbows nor too much sad and gloomy tone.
as it take too much sad and gloomy tone, to some people it is unapproachable, and to some people it will make them to say what a complex story, what a depth, what a complex-grey characters. and The First Frost have all of this.
and people will bickering over this, but no one will say The First Frost's story line as far as it going it suppose to go some were in middle. not sunshine and rainbows nor too much sad and gloomy tone.
they take novel like some BIBLE. for The First Frost I did not read novel so I can not comment on that.
there might be many negative point, so 1st the positive one, Liu Shi Shi and Shawn Dou did fantastic job for there character. and also other cast it might be THE best portrait of Wu Zetian as Emperor/Empress. when she take the power, she already was a fully realised ruler. cinematography was fantastic, production approach to cinematography and editing is very similar to MOVIE. flashback scenes most perfect one I seen recently, not too long or not too many scenes, specially THE execution scene and Liu Shi Shi hypnotising woman. I'll talk about flashback later
now negative one, rather I should say critical approach to drama, this drama is a prefect example, when production have enough budget they can make fantastic drama from a with very linear story,
so 1st thing 1st, last few EP was somehow unnecessary, it feel like two story line attache together with glue.
story as i say before, It is a drama with very linear story, with dramatic way, people will feel Twist after Twist. Cdrama with 28 to 32 EP always tend to shallow. it cant have a layered story, production fill the hole with colorful and dramatic scenes. and it was a drama with very linear story, with many good bad and silly plot TWIST. I find last few EP they just dragged it on it would batter if it was 24 or 26 EP drama.
why it become 30EP because Li family V Wu family pretty much early on we know there will be Li family V Wu family dynamic, i thought drama would take much dipper in this dynamic but they didnt, as many other drama they dont even touch Wu Zetian. not only Wu Zetian, I find in C drama they do not want to touch any ruler like Wu Zetian, Emperor Taizong and other.
flashback and plot TWIST for audience, production pretty much relied on dramatic scenes, plot TWIST and flashback. and we should remember what ever it is DRAMA or MOVIE flashback always work as a DUCT TAPE
many bad plot TWIST and unnecessary flashback had throw out drama, I will only mention few scenes from EP18-26. Hai Yi Ping plot was long time coming. but enter plot was feels like a forded entry, not like previous one, no matter what it has to happened so it happened, and his fall like he was nobody, he might be not Li Zong Xu but he was not nobody. in Hai Yi Ping plot 2 flashback was completely unnecessary. 1 is Lu Dan Xin's flashback 2nd in Hai Yi Ping integration scene Ye Ping An's 1st flashback scene. many people can say Lu Dan Xin's flashback was important one. but dialogue between and acting of Liu Shi Shi and Xuan Lu were more emotional then that flashback, and flashback was a interruption of that emotion. Ye Ping An's 1st flashback scene in Hai Yi Ping integration scene why it was there. Hai Yi Ping plot gives a very powerful pure human emotional scene when Xuan Lu stab Li Zong Xu.
production able to cast vatarian actors for all important character. this is one of reason why they able to make fantastic drama from a with very linear story. it might be just me, I find Ye Ping An flat, plane and linear character. only very few vatarian actress can pull of this type character and they can afford to take the risk. and Liu Shi Shi did fantastic job.
in the end I might have give this drama 6.5 or 7 or 7.5 if not for cinematography, editing, music and cast.
one more thing this drama may be subject to severe censorship. so production edit it in this way. and many scene has to cut lose,
it is not fantasy it was more or less common, for merchant class and other class. not for nobility, and all historical record were written by nobility about themself, you'll barely find record on life of merchant and other class.
it would be much interesting to see a blind character.

when you see other people as Object, you will begin see your own as Object in some point

i know screen write is a difficult job, and most of them take easy way out......
2nd thing 2nd, L cast doing fine what they require to do.

can any one answer this, why china has too many time travel adaption????????????
so 1st the positive one, Liu Shi Shi and Shawn Dou did fantastic job for there character. and also other cast
it might be THE best portrait of Wu Zetian as Emperor/Empress. when she take the power, she already was a fully realised ruler.

in Hai Yi Ping plot 2 flashback was completely unnecessary. 1 is Lu Dan Xin's flashback 2nd in Hai Yi Ping integration scene Ye Ping An's 1st flashback scene.
many people can say Lu Dan Xin's flashback was important one. but dialogue between and acting of Liu Shi Shi and Xuan Lu were more emotional then that flashback, and flashback was a interruption of that emotion.
Ye Ping An's 1st flashback scene in Hai Yi Ping integration scene why it was there.

one more thing this drama may be subject to severe censorship. so production edit it in this way. and many scene has to cut lose,
flow the story, made a drama
