In fact, the Best Actress Award seems out of reach for Sammi Cheng, just one step away. What she has been thinking about for so many years is not how to win the prize, but how to improve and transform her acting skills. The transition from comedian to drama is full of difficulties, many of which are not recognized ... She told people with dreams all over the world that the road to pursuing dreams is full of difficulties, but I hope you will continue to walk and remember this picture. Dreams are reserved for people who never give up. She finally didn't have to run with her on this track this time, and finally crossed the line.
Sammi Cheng, born 1972, 1993 was shortlisted for the Hong Kong Film Awards for the first time. That year, she was shortlisted for the Best Newcomer Award with "Flying Tiger Elite". At that time, she was 2 1 year-old, and it has been 30 years now. Her first Oscar nomination for Best Actress was at 200 1. The short-listed film was Andy Lau's Lonely Man and Widow, when she was 29 years old, more than 20 years ago.
For more than 20 years, Sammi Cheng * * * nominated 65,438+00 times for best actress. Until this year, she finally won the prize.
Nominated so many times, she has never won an award. One of the most important reasons, which Sammi Cheng also mentioned, is that she was originally a "comedian".
On 200 1, Sammi Cheng was nominated for the Best Actress in the Academy Awards for the first time, and lost to Maggie Cheung in In the Mood for Love.
The following year, she was shortlisted for three films, namely Living with Good Friends, Zhong Wuyan and Slimming Men and Women. It seems that she won a lot, but she still lost. The winner is another literary film, Forever Zhang Aijia.
Comedy won't win the prize. How about making a literary film? In 2005, she starred in the film Song of Eternal Sorrow, which was adapted from Wang Anyi's novel and directed by Guan, but she still suffered a crushing defeat at the Academy Awards the following year. The winner of this award is Zhou Xun of If Love.
Everyone said that the romance film won't win the prize, and as a result, the literary film lost to the romance film.
Then the fourth time, this time, Sammi Cheng lost to Miriam Yeung who filmed Meiji and Chunjiao. Everyone said that playing "Hong Kong girl" didn't win the prize, and the result was lost to "Hong Kong girl".
After "promotion and transformation" again and again, Sammi Cheng finally won the award when everyone was about to forget her.
This time, Sammi Cheng, 5 1 year-old, washes away all the lead and plays a housewife who has lost her son and is facing a marriage crisis. It seems that this can be mapped out of the stage, Xu Zhian's infidelity and his father's death, which has a great influence on Sammi Cheng, and there is even news that she suffers from depression.
In her acceptance speech, Sammi Cheng also mentioned her father. She said, "Thank your heavenly father. My father likes art very much. He once said that every performance seems to have realized his lifelong dream. "
Winning the best actress this time not only realized Sammi Cheng's dream, but also a dream of his father.
Maybe many people won't go to see Sammi Cheng's "Running Water Out of Flowers", but they will still congratulate her. Sammi Cheng in "Lonely Men and Few Women" and "Zhong Wuyan" is an actress who has created a classic "Hong Kong woman" image.
