今年“七.一”前夕,吉林电视台推出一部拍摄难度很大的革命历史题材电视剧《特殊连队》。这部以二万五千里长征为题材的电视剧,选择了一个与众不同的视角:透过红一方面军干部休养连中几位老战士、女战士(董必武、徐特立、谢觉哉、邓颖超、蔡畅、李伯钊、贺子珍、李鉴真、危秀英等人)在长征途中的“轶闻”反映长征全貌。可以称之为是一次“以四两拨千斤”的尝试。颇获好评,从而引起我想以此为题写篇评论的兴趣。其实,“四两拨千斤”在文学艺术创作中,是个普遍适用的原则。因为任何文学艺术作品,都只能根据自身的特点选择楔入题材的角度。而在选择角度时,又总是存在着“蛮干”或“巧干”的问题。“蛮干”就是不知道通过感情的杠杆提炼题材,一味说事。“巧干”就是善于以情动人,面对“千军万马”,依旧谈笑风生。“感情”二字,就是可以拨动“千斤”的杠杆。写历史剧,这一点尤为重要。常见不少革命历史剧面对厚重的史料,拉开“正面强攻”的架势。所费不赀,损失惨重。而好的革命历史剧总能巧取其一点,统揽全局。一两小时便能“写”完一部历史。如《秋白之死》便是。《特殊连队》也是这样一部戏。它的角度选得很巧,以它作例,总结写革命历史剧的经验, On the eve of “7.1,” this year, Jilin TV Station launched a film called “Special Trench Company”, a revolutionary historical drama series with great difficulty. This TV series featuring 25,000 miles of the Long March has chosen a distinctive perspective: Through the Red Army military cadres recuperating with several veterans, female warriors (Dong Biwu, Xu Teli, Xie Juezai, Deng Yingchao , Cai Chang, Li Bazhao, He Zizhen, Li Jianzhen, Dan Xiuying, et al.) The “anecdote” in the long march reflects the panorama of the Long March. Can be called a “try to defraud”. Very well received, which led to I want to write an article commenting interest. In fact, the “four thousand two hundred and twenty thousand” in the literary and artistic creation, is a universal principle. Because any literary and artistic works, can only be based on their own characteristics choose to wedge the theme point of view. In the choice of angle, there is always the problem of “foolhardy” or “cleverness.” “Reckless” is do not know through the emotional leverage to refine the subject, blindly say something. “Qiao Gan” is good at moving in love, in the face of “mighty force”, still laughing. “Emotion” word, that is, you can dial the “jack” lever. It’s especially important to write historical plays. Many common historical drama revolution face heavy historical data, opened the “frontal storm” posture. The cost is not high, heavy losses. A good revolutionary historical play can always cleverly capture the overall situation. An hour or two will be able to “write” finished a history. Such as “Death of the Fall” is. “Special Company” is such a drama. Its point of view is very cleverly chosen, using it as an example, summarizing the experience of writing revolutionary historical drama,
