withdrew from the main competition unit of the Berlin Film Festival due to "technical reasons" and missed the opening film of the Golden Rooster Film for the same reason, Zhang Yimou's new film "One Second" was finally able to meet the audience recently. The movie
tells about a place in the northwest in the mid-1970s. In order to get a glimpse of his deceased daughter in the movie, the prisoner Zhang Jiusheng (played by Zhang Yi) ran out of the farm.
happened to meet the little girl Liu Guinu (Liu Haocun) who wanted to steal the film to make a lampshade, and the film projectionist Fan Film (Fan Wei). In order to make the movie go smoothly, Zhang Jiusheng and they launched a series of efforts. I saw my daughter on the screen for a second...
In order to make this movie well, Zhang Yi lost 20 catties. His height at 1.78 meters was only about 110 catties;
was almost on a hunger strike every day, and You also need to run outside at 42 degrees to keep yourself thirsty and tired, close to the character.
Fan Wei, as always, has also contributed wonderful acting skills, interpreting the role of Fan's film very vividly.
Of course, what people are most concerned about is also the performance of the newly appointed post-00 "girls".
Liu Haocun, who played Liu's daughter in the movie, was born on May 20, 2000 in Changchun, Jilin.
The final braided look in "One Second" is reminiscent of Zhang Ziyi in "My Father and Mother".
However, compared to the previous "Measuring Girl", Liu Haocun's overall attack power is much weaker.
's pale appearance, fresh temperament, round eyes and round face add to her immature feeling.
Liu Haocun’s eyes are the most beautiful among the five senses. In "One Second", it is difficult for people to ignore her bright eyes even with a gray face.
Before filming "One Second", Liu Haocun had never been exposed to acting.
Her job is a dance student. She graduated from the High School Attached to Beijing Dance Academy, and was admitted to the Folk Dance Department of Beijing Dance Academy with the first place in the art test.
In 2016, she passed three rounds of auditions and she stood out from nearly 3,000 people. After
became a candidate for the heroine of the movie "One Second", Liu Haocun entered the preparatory group to start training, and went to acting classes every weekend, which has never stopped for 3 years.
There were many newcomers of the same age who attended class with her, but in the end Liu Haocun stood out.
Zhang Yimou said that at the beginning he wanted Liu Haocun to play the role of Guan Xiaotong in "Shadow"; later, due to changes in the script and the age of the role, he finally failed.
During the two years of waiting, Liu Haocun obeyed the director's request, did not pick up advertisements or become an internet celebrity, but studied quietly.
In July 2018, Liu Hao saved into the group "One Second" and officially debuted as an actor.
was suddenly notified that he could go to make a movie, and Liu Haocun was still dumbfounded. She didn't know what traits in her body attracted director Zhang Yimou.
was asked how she felt about acting. She smiled and said that she felt that it was harder than going to college.
I am curious about everything I took.
From the interview with Liu Haocun, it is not difficult to find that she has not been tainted with too much sleek temperament. Perhaps it is this kind of "white paper" state that is what the director Zhang Yimou needs most.
Zhang Yimou is very caring about this new "meek girl" and is very caring.
not only made her sing the theme song at the end of "One Second"; Liu Haocun also performed the song live at the closing ceremony of the Golden Rooster Awards.
After the completion of "One Second", Liu Haocun quickly entered the group of Zhang Yimou's other spy film "Above the Cliff", playing the youth of the heroine Qin Hailu. She also participated in
and the movie "The Coldest Gun". During the filming process of
, Zhang Yimou showed great patience.
waited for her to brew her emotions, and told the staff:
"If you can't finish the film today, we will shoot tomorrow; if the film is not good, we will come back the day after tomorrow." The play is clear at one point.
is "a blank piece of paper with talent", acting like an "old actor".
even more jokingly said: universe can not stop you.
and in the film roadshow interview, directly predicted: Liu Haocun will be Zhou Dongyu’s successor .
You must know that Dongyu Zhou just completed the "Three Gold" Grand Slam a few days ago.
Liu Haocun's efforts did not live up to Zhang Yimou's high expectations.
In the movie, Liu Haocun's daughter Liu has no father and no mother, she has to take care of her younger brother, and she looks like a "tomboy" in character.
not only needs her to unfold the scumbag side, but also embody the inner drama of difficulty and despair.
Most of Liu's rival scenes are with Zhang Yi. The two need to run up and down the sand dunes and stride on the Gobi Desert under the scorching sun.
As long as Zhang Yi walks, how long will she follow.
and the director likes to use long shots to express, so Liu Haocun once ran into nausea.
In the film, she not only has to stain all exposed skin, her hair is covered with dust, and her shoes and pants are covered with sand.
will also shed tears at the yellow sand in the sky. It is not easy for
to be as earthy as possible, but also with a fragile beauty.
Even Zhang Yi praised her for her hard work and spirituality.
For Liu Haocun, who was acting for the first time, her performance is a pass score.
Of course, compared with other characters in the movie, her disadvantages are also obvious, such as great reading of the lines, exaggerated expressions when excited, and so on.
Moreover, as Liu Haocun gradually entered the public eye, people's curiosity about her increased, and speculation about her background followed.
Before the movie was released, Liu Haocun had joined Zhou Dongyu, Guan Xiaotong and others in the "Star Ocean Actor Project".
In addition, she also participated in "Send You A Little Red Flower" to be released at the end of the year, partnering with Yiyan Qianxi .
Huanrui vice president Jiang Lei forwarded and wrote: "Take time to call my family's little niece." For a while, the news that Liu Haocun was Jiang Lei's niece was raging.
Later, Jiang Lei refuted the rumors that he and Liu Haocun were not related, and praised her as a simple and kind-hearted treasure girl.
can get Jiang Lei to dispel the rumors personally, but it makes people more curious about Liu Haocun's background.
But in the face of these rumors, the girl behaved very calmly:
"I don't have any ideas, I think the director generally does not look at these, after all, such a powerful director."
She also emphasized that many things are imaginary, and we should rely on "works to represent ourselves".
Liu Haocun's hot discussion is predictable. After all, most of the new actors selected by Zhang Yimou before have entered the mainstream film circle and achieved success.
From Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi to Ni Ni and Zhou Dongyu, Zhang Yimou's vision has always been good.
For example, when Dongyu Zhou was chosen to shoot "The Love of Hawthorn Tree", the deputy director and other staff did not understand his decision, thinking that Dongyu Zhou was not outstanding enough in appearance or figure.
But Zhang Yimou insisted on his choice:
"My criteria for choosing actors are not good or bad, beautiful, ugly, or sexy. Movie actors are born for the big screen. Many people are more beautiful than Dongyu Zhou, but they lack Zhou in their eyes. The natural feeling of Dongyu."
Finally, the effect of the film proved Zhang Yimou's vision.
Similarly, Zhang Yimou is also very good at training new actors. When
found Dong Jie to shoot "Happy Time", in order to get her closer to the role, she sent her to the house of a blind girl in Beijing for more than half a month.
In the end, the blind girl Wu Ying played by Dong Jie became one of her classic roles.
In "One Second", Liu Haocun cut off a beautiful long hair and replaced it with the dark gray dirty jacket and trousers in the film.
Zhang Yimou's first task was to wear this suit until she finished, "let it grow on her body".
Liu Hao cun complained about himself, he had never been so dirty.
is different from many famous guides. Zhang Yimou's guidance is "practical".
Every expression, movement, and walking posture must be taught in person.
Therefore, every "girl-seeking" debutCan play a high level.
But at the same time, after leaving Zhang Yimou, the destinies of these "girls" were different.
For example, Dongyu Zhou, who was once criticized for being a small family, has now become a representative of the "post-90s powerful actress";
and Ni Ni, who was once charming, has no role that can surpass "Jade Mo".
Zhang Ziyi has become an international superstar, but Zhang Huiwen and Li Man and others are still waiting for a better script.
It can be said that Liu Haocun has been able to fight for several years less than actresses of the same age and is lucky enough to participate in Zhang Yimou's "One Second".
But at the same time, because the halo is too large, the audience needs Liu Haocun to quickly surrender the strength that matches his attention.
"One Second" is Liu Haocun's debut work. The advantages in performance will be magnified and the flaws can be forgiven, but other works afterwards will test her acting skills and reputation.
