This film not only has exciting action scenes, thrilling undercover plots, but also tear-jerking family descriptions. Several elements are well balanced. Surprisingly, although the director of the film is Yuan Kui, the idea of the story, including the slightly literary title of "Letter to Dad", was proposed by Wang Jing (Note: Mainland name "Chizi Weilong", Taiwan name " "Father and Son Wu Zhuangyuan"), he himself said that this is the most satisfying script he ever made.
Twenty-four years have passed. Both actors in the play have passed away. One is Anita Mui, who plays Police Officer Fang, and the other is Ke Shouliang, who plays Xiao Hei. And Jet Li, people are still looking forward to whether he can appear in the next trailer of "Mulan"... Then, where are the other actors in the play?
1. Xie Miao (consolidation)
Xie Miao can be said to be one of the most popular child stars in Hong Kong in the 1990s. He has worked with such big stars as Fa Ge, Jet Li, Sister Mei, Leung Ka Fai and Yau Shu Ching. Later, he followed Fa Ge's suggestion, returned to Beijing to continue his studies, and was admitted to the Beijing Institute of Physical Education. During his studies, he began to come into contact with drama and performance again, but neither "Legend of Shaolin Temple" or "Winning the Target" and "Master of Eight Trigrams" tailored for him by the film did not allow him to open a new stage in his acting career. Later, he became an inconspicuous supporting role in "3D Qimen Dunjia". In recent years, he has marched into the "net big" and continued to consume popularity, which is a pity. Although Xie Miao's career is not satisfactory, her family life is very happy. A few years ago, after marrying the "Prince Princess" He Yanni in "The Palace Lock and Bead Curtain", their daughter "Jumbo Dou" also fell to the ground. For the sake of his family, Xie Miao has started to work hard now. I hope that in the future he can make a masterpiece in the true sense of adulthood.
2. Liu Songren (Superintendent Zheng)
Liu Songren is a cameo in the whole play, the role image is neither good nor bad, but a little bit unscrupulous for promotion. Coincidentally, in "The Three Heroes of the East", Anita Mui and him are husband and wife. In this play, Liu Songren's lover is played again. Because of Jet Li's "protagonist halo effect", Sister Mei was of course not with him in the end, but very May become a solid "new mother". Fans of Hong Kong film and television dramas know that Liu Songren can be regarded as "old opera bones." He had the opportunity to be a film and television drama scriptwriter, but because it is difficult to give up his hobby of acting, he has been acting until today. Because he has specially studied drama theory, Liu Songren has very high requirements for his cooperating partner's acting skills. Although this is regarded as a "difficulty" by many people, it is undeniable that he has portrayed numerous classic roles, regardless of whether it is a decent villain. He can be easily controlled, and every role can make people forget that he is Liu Songren. Now in his seventies, he is still filming, but his mentality has changed a lot from the past. On the one hand, he is addicted to the drama, and on the other hand, he is willing to teach his acting experience to new actors.
3. She Nannan (consolidated mother Li Xia)
In the film, Gong Wei’s wife Li Xia is gentle and considerate, but it is a pity that she has a fateful face. In the end, it is difficult for the enemy to be devoured by her husband, and she did not see her husband before her death , But her appearance also brings a special warmth to the whole film. The role played by the famous mainland drama actor She Nannan, who graduated from the Central Academy of Drama, is not her film debut, but it is her only Hong Kong film. Later, she always focused on dramas, and occasionally participated in film and television performances, so her "familiarity" was relatively low, but in the industry, She Nannan was already quite accomplished, and she was even at the "associate director" level. Drama worker. And last year’s big hit drama "Knowing It or Not" is She Nannan. The character’s unruffled and powerful speech style will not let people associate her with the weak Li Xia. , But also demonstrated her superb drama skills. Nowadays, as a large number of people with drama performance experience are increasingly joining the Chinese film and television industry, I believe She Nannan can contribute more to us in the future.The energy and surprises of many film and television shows.
4. Boss Fuguang (Yu Rongguang)
The Boss Fuguang played by Yu Rongguang in the movie is not only cold-blooded and cruel, but also a bit abnormal and neurotic. Coupled with the powerful line design and very iconic small movement habits, it is easy to impress people impression. The editor thinks that this should be regarded as the pinnacle of Yu Rongguang's villain. As long as his aura is full, even Zou Zhaolong and Lu Huiguang around him will be overshadowed. At that time, Yu Rongguang also entered the Hong Kong entertainment industry following Jet Li’s path. Although his status in the film world is not as high as the latter, he has appeared in many Chinese A-level productions in the past few decades. He is iron buddies with Jackie Chan and Donnie Yen. . After returning to the mainland a few years ago to set up his own film and television company, Yu Rongguang has always focused his work on the filming and production of TV shows. Soon the highly acclaimed "The Heroes of Nanqiao Mechanical Engineering" also strengthened Rongguang's confidence in becoming a director. The next step is to see if his new "Tianlong Babu" directed by him can reach a peak of reputation.
5. Lu Huiguang (one of Fuguang's beaters)
Lu Huiguang, who has solid Muay Thai skills, has played many villain roles, because the big villain in "Letter to Dad" has given Yu Rongguang, so he can only play the "little brother", but His super strong leg skills later showed off in the finale. If you don’t know Lu Huiguang, it proves that you hardly watch Hong Kong movies, because Jackie Chan was indispensable in many movies in the 1990s. The moment of "highest light" should be the word "Drunken Fist 2" where he was superb and easy to use. The battle between "horse" leg skills and Jackie Chan is over. In fact, in addition to participating in Jackie Chan movies, Lu Huiguang has also acted as the male number one in many movies, such as "Peter Pan", "The Missing Gun" and "Blood Love", etc., but because the film is not very popular, Lu Huiguang's film industry The status is also lost. After leaving the marrying class, Lu Huiguang became a "10,000 Years Green Leaf"-he is in almost every Xingang film, but he can't remember what he played in it. In fact, for the current Lu Huiguang, filming is not all of his life. One part is to be shared with his two sons, while the other part is to take care of his boxing gym.
6. Zou Zhaolong (one of the Fuguang thugs)
In "Letter to Dad", Zou Zhaolong and Lu Huiguang performed the same, because they have to stand out as the absolute villain of Rongguang, so the sense of existence is slightly lower. But it’s okay. The films "Zhongnanhai Bodyguard", "Magic Lord" and "Adventure King" have long established his position as a "Jet Li screen enemy" that will not be easily forgotten by the audience. He stayed in Hollywood for 7 years. "The Matrix" is this period) and returned again. He has gained a lot of popularity with the wonderful confrontation between "Fuse" and Donnie Yen. However, in recent years, most of the films received by Zou Zhaolong are of poor quality, which is actually not good for him. For example, the king of Zhou played by him in the new "Fengshen" has many points worth highlighting, but the word-of-mouth of the whole drama is not good, naturally fewer people mention it. It is precisely that he is in "Jiaotou" The role in "2" is talked about by more people, which also shows one thing: Zou Zhaolong is a good actor, the key depends on how the director uses it, but also uses the right place.
7. Fang Ping (rich businessman)
Fang Ping has a cameo role as a rich businessman in "Letter to Dad". Since it is not an absolutely important one, the analysis of his role will not be repeated. Perhaps in the perception of many people, Fang Ping is not as famous as his wife Bao Qijing, but it is not. In his early years, he was also regarded as a little boy in the era of Hong Kong Mandarin films (he also played Zhuo Yihang in the 80 version of "The Witch with White Hair"), and later transformed into a successful commercial film producer, which is very famous in the industry. Such as "Precocious", "Eavesdropping", "The King of the Gun King" and "Shinjuku Incident" are his "producers." In terms of acting, many of his later role images are dominated by villains, and his "worst supporting role" Gandhi in "Infernal Affairs 2" is believed to be the deepest memory point of many friends Fang Ping.
8. Yuan Kui (bartender)
Yuan Kui, the director of the film, also played a guest role in the play, but the scene is relatively short, and the lines are only a few simple dialogues with Liu Songren. At that time, the director appeared in his own films, which was a common "tradition" in Hong Kong films. He didn't pay attention to how many plays, as long as they were interesting. In the 1990s, Yuan Kui and Jet Li had collaborated on many excellent films, such as the "Fang Shiyu" series, "Zhongnan HaibaoDarts are the culmination of the cooperation of the two. Later Jet Li went to Hollywood to develop and brought Yuan Kui with him, such as "Fatal Weapon 4", "Fatal Romeo", "Dragon Kiss", "Space Pursuit" and "Ranger "" and other movies, have important participation in Yuan Kui, and he is also regarded by Jet Li as his "closest partner" in action movies. In addition, he is also Liu Zhenwei’s golden partner in the film industry. After "3" and "Pair of Celestial Ball", Yuan Kui chose peace of mind and has not taken any more dramas.
