影片题材宏大
拍摄《建党伟业》这部献礼片，是中国电影集团在2009年《建国大业》剧上映获得观众好评和高上座率后决定的。当时初定的影片名称为《建党大业》，两部影片系姐妹片，后来经有关领导和专家建议，将片名改成了《建党伟业》。
《建党伟业》展示了从1911年辛亥革命前后到1921年中国共产党成立这段时期内的曲折历史故事与众多风云人物，主要以李大钊、陈独秀、毛泽东、周恩来、蔡和森、向警予等第一批中国共产党党员为中心，讲述他们在风雨飘摇的时代为国家赴汤蹈火的精彩故事，可以说是一部题材恢弘的建党历史巨片。
整部电影剧情分为三个部分：第一部分讲述1911年辛亥革命期间，孙中山等革命者推翻了清政府，取得了辛亥革命的初步胜利；后来又将窃取辛亥革命成果的袁世凯赶下了皇帝的宝座，使中国走上了民主主义之路。第二部分叙述李大钊、陈独秀等中国社会精英，积极探索革命道路。1919年北京大学校长蔡元培及邓中夏等中国优秀的知识分子发起“五四运动”，组织学生上街游行，他们高举反帝反封建的大旗，提出拒绝在《巴黎和约》上签字、废除“二十一条”、外争国权内惩国贼的主张，点燃了青年一代的革命火种。第三部分是全剧的重点，演绎了1921年7月底至8月初，具有开天辟地历史意义的中国共产党第一次代表大会的动人情景。大会先在上海望志路106号秘密召开，后发现有可疑情况，安全转移到浙江嘉兴南湖一艘红色的画舫上继续举行，毛泽东、何叔衡、董必武、李达、张国焘、王尽美、包慧僧、陈潭秋、邓恩铭、周佛海、陈公博等13名中共一大代表，在船上通过了《中国共产党纲领》，并选举产生了党的中央领导机构，从而翻开了中国革命崭新一页。《建党伟业》展示了毛泽东等年轻一代共产党人的高尚革命情操。
这部影片的时间跨度长、历史事件多、风云人物众，其展示的情景可以说气势恢弘。如此纷繁复杂的历史背景，对史料的把握至关重要，电影剧本前后改了40稿。导演和编剧创作的原则是“大事不虚，小事不拘”，即重大历史事件必须真实，小的细节允许艺术创作。
在《建党伟业》中，除了展示大量的历史事件外，毛泽东和杨开慧的感情戏被当做一条重要线索贯穿全片，成为一个亮点。这场感情戏在试映和公映时就得到了有关领导、专家和广大观众的认可，尤其是现场的女性观众，她们都表示看到了一个更加人性化的毛泽东，这位领袖的形象更加丰满，也更加完整。同时绝大多数影迷表示影片所展现的民族感情也十分具有张力，在看五四运动、共产党成立等几场重要戏份时，不少观众都感动得落泪。
演员阵容强大
影片的总导演韩三平，是《建国大业》的总导演。他于1977年进入四川峨眉电影制片厂，1983年到北京电影学院导演系进修班学习，毕业后回到峨眉电影制片厂任导演、副厂长。韩三平曾编导过反映毛泽东1947年东渡黄河到1972年会见美国总统尼克松这近30年的生活片断的故事片《毛泽东的故事》。1994年，他调任北京电影制片厂厂长，积极支持鼓励冯小刚等年轻人搞创作，以出品人身份组织、创作生产了100多部影片。中国电影集团公司成立后，韩三平先后出任集团副董事长兼副总经理、董事长。从《无极》《投名状》到《赤壁》《梅兰芳》，由韩三平领导的中影团队推出一系列高成本高回收的商业电影，使得中国电影开始进入成熟的大片时代。特别是2009年《建国大业》的拍摄成功，让他成为中国电影界的元老级人物。另一位导演黄建新也是《建国大业》的导演。他目前正在完成“革命三部曲”：《建国大业》《建党伟业》，下一部是关于创建人民军队的电影《建军壮业》。
韩三平与黄建新执导《建党伟业》后，制订了周密的拍摄方案，并在拍摄前后将电影剧本改了几十遍。挑选演员本是副导演的事，但为了严格把关，韩三平与黄建新也对初选后的演员进行了复选，他们尤其提出了要大胆使用青年演员，所以除了明星演员外，还挑选了一些知名度不是很高的青年演员。
说到《建党伟业》的演员阵容，比《建国大业》阵容还要强大，明星和青年演员多达170余位，可以说是群星云集，星光灿烂。《建党伟业》仍采用明星制，且年轻明星在片中挑大梁。即便是没有报酬，仍有许多大腕、明星和普通演员踊跃报名参加演出。
经过导演组的精挑细选，一个强大的明星阵容终于组成：其中马少骅饰演孙中山，周润发饰演袁世凯，刘德华饰演蔡锷，张嘉译饰演李大钊，冯远征饰演陈独秀，陈坤饰演周恩来，文章饰演邓小平，王丹戎饰演董必武，吕良伟饰演吴佩孚，张震饰演蒋介石，黄觉饰演李达，李晨饰演张国焘，戚玉武饰演王尽美，何平饰演何叔衡，周杰饰演李汉俊，王学兵饰演包慧僧，谭凯饰演陈潭秋，张一山饰演邓恩铭，黄轩饰演刘仁静，张译饰演周佛海，佟瑞欣饰演陈公博，周迅饰演李达的太太王会悟，叶璇饰演陈公博夫人李励庄，李沁饰演毛泽东的夫人杨开慧，范志博饰演蔡畅，董璇饰演向警予，董洁饰演宋庆龄，韩雪饰演宋美龄，范冰冰饰演隆裕太后……
在众多的明星中，刘烨最初被导演组提出扮演中共一大代表毛泽东，他自己也半信半疑，觉得外貌上与毛泽东的相似程度还有些差距。但经过化妆师妙手化妆后，一下就变得像毛泽东了，导演组就将他确定了下来。据扮演杨开慧的李沁透露。刘烨在拍摄现场还通过戴牙套调整脸型来达到“形似”的要求，他头一回演伟人，心里压力很大，后来几次造型获得包括整个剧组上下的肯定，他才开始觉得自己像毛泽东了，也就逐步充满了自信。香港著名导演吴宇森早在2009年拍摄《建国大业》中就出演过相关角色，但最后由于片长的原因戏份“被剪”，使他无缘上《建国大业》的银幕。这一次，吴宇森终于如愿在《建党伟业》中饰演一个重要历史人物，他就是晚清名士，曾任国民政府主席、国民党中央政治委员会代理主席的林森。在众多的明星中，赵本山以善于搞笑著称，这次导演分给他一个比较严肃的角色段祺瑞，可观众看到他在影片中的样子，仍然发出了笑声。
在影片拍摄中，青年演员刘烨、李沁饰演的毛泽东和杨开慧的形象有别于观众以往见到的印象。在剧中他俩表演的毛泽东与杨开慧甜蜜的恋爱过程，是全片中最“现代”的一场戏，让观众颇为感动。青年演员廖凡在拍戏时不慎坠马，被钉了12根钢钉后休息了半个月，又来到现场继续拍摄。在新闻发布会上，低血糖的叶璇曾突然晕倒在地，但喝了点糖水后仍站在发布会上为影片做宣传——让在场的不少人慨叹：“《建党伟业》的演员都是拼命三郎！”
经过剪辑，《建党伟业》的放映时间为一个半小时，与《建国大业》一样，参加《建党伟业》演出的179位演员每人平均1分钟也不到，有许多明星的台词只有一句话，甚至没有台词。如黄轩扮演的刘仁静台词只有“中国共产党这个名字很响亮”这短短一句。但在后期制作中，不仅有的演员台词被删掉，更严格的是在179位演员中，有10多位演员演出的镜头也被剪掉了。导演韩三平、黄建新解释说：“删剪镜头并不是我们的本意，这完全是为了剧情的需要，请大家谅解。”通过做思想工作，有些演员事后说：“虽然我们的镜头被剪觉得很心痛，但为了《建党伟业》的成功，我们‘虽死犹荣’。”□
Blockbuster Movie Celebrates the Founding of CPC
By Xu Zhongyou
“The Founding of the People’s Republic”, a film produced in 2009 by the China Film Group in celebration of the 60th anniversary of the People’s Republic of China, was a cinematic epic that appealed to national audiences and critics. Shortly after the colossal success of the film, the country’s biggest filmmaker decided to produce a sister film that would celebrate the upcoming 90th anniversary of the Communist Party of China in 2011.
The new epic film entitled “The Founding of the Party” aims to recreate the ten years from 1911 to 1921, a very turbulent decade in the history of 20th-century China. The main characters of the film are founding members of the CPC such as Li Dazhao, Chen Duxiu, Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai, Cai Hesen, and Xiang Jingyu. They envisioned a China free of world powers and feudalism and they worked heart and soul to make the dream come true.
The film, divided in three parts, paints a whole picture of the historical background that prepared the way for the founding of the CPC and the significant birth of the party in July 1921.
The first part outlines the overthrow of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) by the revolutionaries under the leadership of Dr. Sun Yat-sen and the short-lived monarchy of Yuan Shikai in 1916. The two events opened the way for China to democracy.
The second part relates how some elite Chinese intellectuals such as Li Dazhao and Chen Duxiu took the initiative to explore the possibility of a new revolution. The events that marked this brave and far-sighted probe of a different future include the May Fourth Movement in 1911, ignited by the anger directed toward the government stance on the Paris Peace Pact. This student movement made powerful repercussions across the nation and inspired a whole generation of young people to strive for a new China.
The actual birth of the CPC is the very focus of the film. Almost journalistically, the film reports on the event in detail. The first national congress of the CPC convened in a house at No 106 Wangzhi Road, Shanghai in early July, 1921. When the security situation looked dangerous, the 13 participating representatives decided to move the congress to a pleasure boat on the South Lake in Jiaxing, a central city in the north of the neighboring Zhejiang Province. After a series of sessions for over a month, the first national congress adopted the Constitution of the Communist Party of China and elected a central committee to execute the leadership and launch a Communist revolution. The birth of the CPC turned a new page in the modern history of China.
Though painting a grand picture of the era and the birth of the party, the epic film does not stay on a grand scale. In addition to many historical events and anecdotes, it is enriched by a portrayal of the romance between Mao Zedong and his wife Yang Kaihui. This storyline has been highly appreciated by leaders, experts and audience, especially women among the audience.
The film was jointly directed by Han Sanping and Huang Jianxin, both veteran filmmakers. Han Sanping, a director originally from a small film studio in Sichuan Province, came to Beijing in 1994 and took the post of the directorship of Beijing Film Studio. He launched a renaissance of domestic films, renovating the filmmaking system and operation modes. He has produced more than 100 films since he came to Beijing. Under his buckles are a series of blockbusters. Huang Jianxin directed the first epic film about the birth of the People’s Republic.
Shortly after “The Founding of the People’s Republic”, Han and Huang began to make arrangements for “The Founding of the Party”. They worked out a plan for the whole project and finalized the script after it was rewritten 39 times. Of course they followed the successful formula of the first epic film: they wanted to cast as many film stars and celebrities as possible. A lot of stars offered to be cast into the second epic and said they were willing to show up even though they were not paid a cent. Some regarded it as a test of their individual stardoms. Getting left out of such a star-studded blockbuster could mean you were not important enough. Altogether, the two directors handpicked 173 big names to star in the movie. Averagely, most of them do not have a one-minute-long performance in the 90-minute film. Some do not even speak a line. More over, about 10 stars were edited out in the postproduction period. Some whose performance was edited out feel it was an honor to sacrifice for the epic.
“The Founding of the Party” was premiered across China on June 15, 2011. □
