The story is set in the mid-1970s, when everyone loved to watch open-air movies. The story unfolds between the film projectionist Fan Wei, Zhang Yi who missed the film screening and Liu Haocun who wants the film.
Fan Wei and Zhang Yi's audience are familiar with it. They are old-fashioned, powerful and appropriate. Liu Haocun's performance became the most anticipated part of the audience.
Liu Hao's appearance in the play is sloppy and untidy, but the aura in her eyes cannot be concealed. In Zhang Yimou's words, eyes can talk.
Liu Haocun was "targeted" by the Zhang Yimou team when she took the art test, because she met the standard of Zhang Dao's "small face and talking eyes".
So 18-year-old Zhang Haocun directly became a "girl" and took a second. Zhang Yimou praised her as "Zhou Dongyu's successor". Of course, Zhou Dongyu fans don't like this. Zhou Dongyu is only 28 years old and has a bright future. Now he doesn't need a successor.
In addition, Zhang Yimou also mentioned that in the movie Shadow, the role of Guan Xiaotong was originally reserved for Liu Haocun, because Liu was too young to find Guan Xiaotong. I wonder how Guan Xiaotong will feel after reading these words?
Speaking is really an art, and Zhang Yimou's words made two popular florets unhappy. As a newcomer, Liu Haocun's performance is remarkable except that his lines are too dramatic. Zhang Yimou has always had a good eye. From Gong Li to Zhang Ziyi to Nini and Zhou Dongyu, he has never turned his face.
Moreover, the level of director Zhang Yimou is not bad this time, with style and feelings, and the blessing of two leading actors. After the release, it can really be described as "rave reviews". It is said that the fifth-generation director "Jiang Lang Tired" is now dominated by young people, but Zhang Yimou is still very strong at the age of 70. He usually keeps fit, exercises and keeps in good shape, in order to better devote his energy to the film industry.
At the same time, he has many other jobs, such as shooting the variety "Cross-border Snow King", which is also a warm-up for the Beijing Winter Olympics; I have to be the director of the 70th National Day Gala, and so on. These are all tasks that need to be completed.
In addition, there are many "stocks" in Zhang Yimou, such as Above the Cliff starring Zhang Yi, Rock-solid starring Lei Jiayin and Zhang Guoli, and The Coldest Gun starring Zhang Yi and Zhang Yu has also been established. Speaking of it, Zhang Yi has been a "hot spot" in the film circle in recent years!
Zhang Yimou is 70 years old, making movies, directing parties and doing variety shows, but he does more and more things and keeps a high standard. He also exercised himself. Chen Kaige and Xiaogang Feng next door really need to study hard.
Chen Kaige's report card is inferior to Zhang Yimou's. Chen Kaige's most famous work in this decade is Gao Yuanyuan and Mark Chao's Search, which makes the film feel better.
Followed by The Legend of the Demon Cat, which is very controversial. People who like it are regarded as masterpieces, while those who don't like it think they are watching the exquisite propaganda film of the Tang Dynasty. In addition, the Taoist priest who went down the mountain was scolded miserably. Only the unit directed by Chen Kaige is my people, and the most "hip-pulling" in my motherland.
Probably because he didn't taste the sweetness of the film market, Chen Kaige turned his attention to TV dramas and became a producer of idol dramas in the past two years. In addition, his performance in variety shows also showed "timidity". At first I saw his comments, every sentence was in place and every word was sharp. But after a long time, I found that he wrote his own plays and output his own works, which were even worse than those in New Zhao Wei.
Chen Kaige couldn't accept criticism when he was young, but when he was old, not to mention the poor and honest Li Chengru was run away. Maybe Chen Kaige is more like a businessman now. He has spent a lot of time on raising his son, but he may not have that much energy to study movies.
Xiaogang Feng is also not easy to accept criticism. In the past, he would scold the "garbage audience", but when he was older, he would say that the audience spent money, and it was right to scold a few words.
Xiaogang Feng's report card is a little better than Chen Kaige's. First there is the painstaking work "1942", and then there is "youth". Although "Ruo Yun Know" is almost, it is not a bad film.
It's just that Xiaogang Feng prefers TV series now. First, I worked as a producer in various places, and now I am on stage as a TV director, shooting group portraits of women.
Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige and Xiaogang Feng are the representatives of the fifth generation directors in China. They left many wonderful works for the film industry, but times have changed. It seems that only Zhang Yimou can truly insist on art and love.
