Wong Kar-wai's "Flowers", which has been sharpening his sword for three years, was finally airborne, and it won the hottest on the whole network at the beginning, and this is really well deserved.
This is not only because there are outstanding actors such as Hu Ge and Zheng Kai in the play, but also a group of actresses from all eras and characteristics are also very eye-catching.
In addition to Ma Yili, the actor of the heroine Reiko, Tang Yan, Xin Zhilei, Wu Yue and other female stars are also looking forward to joining.
And what is even more surprising is Papi Sauce, who was born as an Internet celebrity, Fan Xiangyan, who was born as a comedian, and Wang Ju, who was born in a girl group, ......
can't help but make people speculate what kind of beauty these various actresses will show under the lens of Wong Kar-wai?
Ma Yili in "Flowers" is the eight-faced, affectionate and righteous female boss of "Night Tokyo", she speaks Shanghainese and has a full tone, and she stands up as soon as she speaks.
Although she is still in the public's impression of the bold and sassy "Commander Ma", the strange thing is that every time she appears with the kind of "Commander" full of Shanghai flavor, she has no sense of disobedience - I have to admit that this is what she brings in her bones as a local.
Therefore, the role interpreted by Ma Yili is not only a bit shrewd and strong, clever and clever, but also with a primitive background with affection and righteousness.
In terms of roles, the relationship between Reiko and the actor Ah Bao should be each other's first love, and they have intersected after many years of separation.
This setting makes Reiko's image as wanton as fire.
Therefore, Ma Yili's makeup is also very outstanding, with a signature short hair + gorgeous costumes, and a small mouth and a horn that keeps talking, which can always make people enter the play in a second.
In fact, as early as in "Cheongsam Beauty Detective", Ma Yili let the audience see her stunning appearance in old Shanghai, and this time in "Flowers", only more mature charm and more skillful acting skills are definitely worthy of the title of female number one.
But in fact, the performance of other actresses is not bad, it can only be said that they are beautiful in their own ways.
The second female chose Tang Yan, and it is not unreasonable
She plays Miss Wang, the first generation of female white-collar workers in China, working in a foreign trade company at No. 27 on the Bund, and her relationship with Po is more like a minute hand and a second hand, going hand in hand in the torrent of time.
At the beginning of the story, Miss Wang's emotional experience is very rich, and she has been entangled with many people, and finally she met Bao, and the two knew each other and became a famous husband and wife in Shanghai.
However, whether it is in terms of appearance or style, Miss Wang played by Tang Yan is **enchanting: big waves + flaming red lips, she is a complete "heartthrob".
But in Tang Yan's view, this role is a real "career brain", she said "She is driven, reliable, and open-minded", and said bluntly:
"I think that in the past three years, I have been Miss Wang myself."What's more distinctive is that this is Tang Yan's first work performed in Shanghainese dialect throughout the whole process, and fans who want to listen to his Wu Nong's soft language are blessed.
Playing the role of Li Li, a mysterious woman who came to Shanghai alone from other places to work hard, is the "multi-faceted goddess" Xin Zhilei.
In the original book, Li Li is a northerner, who worked in Shenzhen, and then went to Shanghai to run a restaurant called "Zhizhenyuan".
She has an unknown tragic past, she was cheated of money and sex, and finally even desperately became a monk.
But in the drama version, Li Li played by Xin Zhilei only has emotional entanglements with the male protagonist Po, and is the lover that the other party never forgets and is deeply emotional.
It can be said that Wong Kar-wai has a unique vision, and Xin Zhilei's beauty is completely suitable for this image - every time she appears, she can be unforgettable.
Xin Zhilei's beauty is different from Tang Yan, compared to the softness and kindness of the other party, she has a strong aura and a determination not to be approached.
Especially in the bustling "Zhizhen Garden", Xin Zhilei, who is dignified and noble, is definitely the brightest existence.
However, such a beauty is very affectionate and sexual, although she wants to be windy and rainy in the rivers and lakes, but her heart is empty and there is no sustenance, and finally she cuts her hair and becomes a nun, and it ends up regretfully - however, although this reversal is surprising, it is reasonable to taste it carefully.
Wu Yue, who is also a Shanghai actress, has already sat firmly on the throne of "quality drama guarantee" with her outstanding acting skills and strength, and is one of the most representative representatives of Shanghai actresses.
She has been following the style of "people are as light as chrysanthemums", until she personally refuted the rumors in an interview: "I am such a strong person, how can I be said to be 'people are as light as chrysanthemums'?"”
Indeed, in recent years, Wu Yue has been very prolific and has achieved outstanding results, especially in works with different themes such as "Sweeping the Black Storm" and "County Party Committee Compound", which is eye-catching.
In "Flowers", she doesn't have many roles, and her role is not heavy, so she can only be regarded as a female No. 4, playing Section Chief Jin.
Compared with the image created by the first three actresses, Section Chief Jin represents a calm and sophisticated image of a professional woman, and the eye drama is very exciting, just a few shots can give people a high-end feeling, and the character image is more patterned.
In addition to the above recognizable actresses, the appearance of papi sauce is really surprising.
As we all know, she was also born in Shanghai, she is the first generation of Internet celebrities, and in 2015, she became popular because of her original short **, and won the Top Ten Weibo Celebrity Awards of the Super Celebrity Festival the following year.
Papi sauce has also been "electrocuted", starred in the movie "Demon Bell Bell", and is also a frequent guest on various variety shows, mainly appearing as a mentor guest, and "guiding the maze" for the public in various programs.
This is because although Papi sauce is an Internet celebrity, her education is not low, she graduated from the Chinese Opera Directing Department, in addition to being funny, her brain is not given for nothing.
And "Flowers" is her first TV series work, in which she plays the heroine Reiko's best friend Ling Hong, which attracted the attention of the audience on her debut.
When it comes to why he accepted the director's invitation, Papi-chan is also very frank:
"For me, Wong Kar-wai directing, and acting in Shanghainese, may be the only opportunity in my life. ”However, she also directly stated that she would not enter the entertainment industry through this performance.
Because she likes to stay in her comfort zone, she feels that she can maintain her style and characteristics while continuing to be loved by her fans.
In addition to Papi, 43-year-old Fan Xiangyan also came.
She was at the peak of her debut in Stephen Chow's movie "Kung Fu" in 2004 and was noticed by a small range.
It's just that Fan Xiangyan was born at the wrong time, and he was soon affected by Huang Shengyi's "Men's Clothing" incident and encountered snow hiding.
During the 10 years that she was hidden, she was forced to transform into a behind-the-scenes job, but she never gave up her dream of stardom until she returned in 2012, and two years later attracted attention again because of her participation in the recording of "Wonderful Story".
Looking at the ups and downs of this art path, Fan Xiangyan mostly appeared as a "variety show", but in recent years, he has begun to appear in various film and television works.
In "Flowers", she played the role of Lu Meilin, the proprietress of Jin Meilin Hotel on the Yellow River Road - she is spicy and shrewd, bold in style, and her gestures are the "eldest sister" of a special era.
But who can connect such a Fan with the suffocating Yu Yang's mother in the popular "Minglong Boy" next door?
This is the plasticity of a good actor, and it is also the greatest confidence that Fan Xiangyan still has the possibility of becoming popular after being dormant for many years.
Perhaps compared with the above female stars, Zeng Meihuizi's name looks particularly unfamiliar.
But she is a real "double actress".
5 years ago, Zeng Meihuizi shined with a feature film "Three Husbands", successfully won the Academy Awards and the Film Critics Society Awards, and was also shortlisted for the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress.
In fact, Zeng Meihuizi has debuted for nearly 20 years, and has acted in many controversial film works, and most of the directors she has cooperated with are Lou Ye, Li Yu, Chen Guo and other literary film bigwigs.
She also co-produced the feature film "The Party at the Southern Station" with Hu Ge, which is the second collaboration between the two.
In "Flowers", Min Min, played by Zeng Meihuizi, was originally a waiter who was sued by the original foreman of the Zhizhenyuan Hotel, but was later appreciated by Li Li, the boss played by Xin Zhilei, and was promoted to the foreman.
This role may not play much, but this does not mean that Zeng Meihuizi's shaping power is not good.
After all, she starred in the movie "Mistake by the River", but it is a double harvest of word-of-mouth and box office.
In the film, Zeng Meihuizi played Bai Jie, the wife of the male protagonist Zhu Yilong, who was rated by netizens as "having a crazy temperament", adding a mystery and resentment to the film.
In addition, Tong Chenjie, who was born as a model, plays the role of Manager Pan of Zhizhenyuan - she was originally the manager of the Golden Phoenix Restaurant, and later jumped to Zhizhenyuan.
Manager Pan represents "people who don't talk much and are serious about their careers", with a strong aura and charm, standing with Li Li played by such a beautiful Xin Zhilei, he is definitely not compared.
Especially when two women join forces to engage in a career together, it is very attractive to think about it.
And Tong Chenjie's aura is absolutely strong, after all, in the modeling industry, she has shined on the international stage with Du Juan, Liu Dan and others.
Her beauty is very advanced, her distinctive face carries the intellectuality and charm of an oriental beauty, and in "Flowers", she integrates heroic aggression, and her acting skills are also remarkable, which is gratifying.
And Wang Ju, who plays Mei Ping in the play, is an "alternative" women's team player in "Creation 101" 5 years ago.
She is the "black swan" in the show, and she has been out of the circle with negative keywords such as "black, fat, strong", and even complained by the audience that she is "unworthy".
But Wang Ju was gradually accepted by netizens because of her self-confidence, strong and clear goals, and her sentence of "the standard of beauty" was very out of the circle.
In recent years, Wang Ju has successfully transformed into an actress: popular dramas such as "Love is Delicious" and "All the Way to the Sun" have been launched one after another, which has also allowed her to be seen with more possibilities.
And in "Flowers", Mei Ping played by her is also a clue character:
She was originally an employee of a foreign trade company with a good relationship with Miss Wang, but behind her back she was jealous of the other party, and even had the idea of replacing Miss Wang.
This role is very much in line with Wang Ju's feeling: never admit defeat, and always exude the beauty of self-confidence.
The above are all the beauties in "Flowers", in addition to the "Three Beauties of Flowers", is every one of them very interesting?
Whose wonderful performance are you most optimistic about?
