In this era of national nostalgia and innovation, the release date of the film version of "A Dream of Red Mansions" was like a bombshell, instantly causing ripples in the hearts of movie and book fans.

This is not just the birth of a movie, but also a modern interpretation of classic literature and a dream connection that transcends time and space.

Back then, The Dream of the Red Chamber written by Cao Xueqin was like a delicate and intricate painting, slowly unfolding in every corner of the Grand View Garden.

Every character is vivid and the emotional entanglements are intricate, making people unable to stop.

Now, this literary masterpiece is about to shine again in the form of a movie, which naturally aroused the expectations and imagination of countless people.

It is said that in order to restore the dreamlike Grand View Garden, the crew spared no expense and spent as much as "three million taels of silver" (although this is an exaggeration, it shows the huge investment).

This is not only a respect for the original work, but also an ultimate pursuit of the audience's visual experience.

Imagine the scenery of carved beams and painted buildings, and winding paths slowly unfolding on the screen, as if you could travel through time and space and step into that world full of poetry and sorrow.

But then again, adapting classics has always been a "game for the brave."

Especially in a masterpiece like "Dream of Red Mansions", the portrayal of each character touches the hearts of thousands of readers.

For this casting, the crew adopted an open audition method, intending to discover more fresh blood and inject new vitality into the classics.

But this move undoubtedly pushed the crew to the forefront of public opinion.

Let’s first talk about Xue Baochai played by Huang Jiarong. Although this new rising star has a fresh and refined appearance, she seems to lack the calmness and restraint of a lady from a noble family when interpreting the role of Xue Baochai.

Netizens joked: "This is not Sister Bao at all, she is clearly a young girl who has just started out!"

The words contain both encouragement for young actors and expectations for the degree of character restoration.

When it comes to the actress who played Lin Daiyu, it was simply a live version of the "Tucao Conference".

Netizens said: "This Daiyu looks like a maid no matter how you look at her. How can she be like Lin Daiyu?"

Indeed, as the soul character in "Dream of Red Mansions", Lin Daiyu's unique talent, sentimental character and extraordinary temperament are extremely difficult to grasp.

The actress this time was accused of having "a maid look", which was undoubtedly a big test of her performance.

Now let’s look at Bian Cheng, who plays Jia Baoyu. Although this young actor is still young, his performance seems a bit immature when faced with such an important role.

In the trailer, his running figure was jokingly called "possessed by a Husky" by netizens. He completely lacked the gentle, sentimental and affectionate temperament of Jia Baoyu in the original novel.

As for Jia Yuanchun played by Guan Xiaotong, although she has a certain degree of fame in the entertainment industry, she seems a little overwhelmed when faced with such a luxurious and extraordinary role.

Her style and clothing were criticized as "awkward" and unable to support the royal majesty and dignity.

However, having said that, as a young actor, daring to challenge such a classic role is itself a kind of courage and growth.

Faced with so much controversy and doubt, the director and actors of the film version of "Dream of Red Mansions: The Golden Marriage" are undoubtedly under tremendous pressure.

But as the popular internet meme says: "Even with great pressure, we must face life with a smile."

They are trying to interpret this classic literary work in their own way, striving to bring a new visual feast to the audience while respecting the original work.

No matter what the final result is, this adaptation will become a good story in the history of Chinese cinema.

It is not only a tribute to "Dream of Red Mansions", but also an exploration of the integration of traditional culture and modern aesthetics.

Let us look forward to seeing how the emotional resonance that transcends time and space will touch the hearts of every audience member when the splendor of the Grand View Garden is recreated on the screen.
