The movie "The Morning Cloud and Mu Rain ", which will be released on May 17, will hold its premiere in Beijing on May 13. Director Zhang Guoli and starring Fan Wei and Zhou Dongyu appeared for post-screening exchanges. The "husband and wife team" of Fan Wei and Zhou Dongyu contributed a performance full of surprises, which was praised by many premiere audiences. Director Zhang Guoli said: "The performances of the two actors are really touching."
"Chaoyun Muyu" is adapted from "The Murderous Girl in a Wedding Dress". It tells the story of Lao Qin, who was released from prison and wanted to marry a wife and have children. Starting a new life, he accidentally met Chang Juan, a girl who had also just been released from prison. He begged for a child, she begged for wealth, and the two people, who were both "descended from the ends of the earth", began a profit marriage with their own purposes. Director Zhang Guoli said that compared to the original work, the story of the movie is more profound and vivid, because life is impermanent. The lives of Chang Juan and Lao Qin are impermanent. The two major events in their lives - life and death - are put together. , the story becomes more interesting.
Zhou Dongyu recalled on the spot that after reading the script for the first time, he felt that the story and characters were very "cruel" and had a lot of feelings and emotions. "Chang Juan is the most desperate character I have ever played. She has to bear everything silently in her heart. I find this kind of struggle and contrast a bit difficult to grasp, so I want to challenge myself." Zhang Guoli commented on Zhou Dongyu's performance this time. "Self-destructive" is a huge breakthrough.
The pairing of Zhou Dongyu and Fan Wei as husband and wife is undoubtedly a highlight of the film. Their contrast and tacit cooperation add a lot to the film. Talking about this cooperation, Zhou Dongyu said frankly that this is a dream come true: "He is like a sweeping monk. You can learn a lot from all aspects of acting with him. I have wanted to act with Teacher Fan Wei since I was in college, but I didn't I thought that my dream would come true before I turned 30. This drama was filmed when I was 29."
Fan Wei commented on Zhou Dongyu's performance: "In the early stage, I was still the chatty and laughing Zhou Dongyu, but in the later stage, the character entered a vegetative state. After the condition, she was completely different on and off the screen. She rarely even talked to people on set. After the first vegetative scene was filmed, the audience burst into applause. The sense of proportion and subtlety were all there. Everyone felt relieved, it’s done!”
