1905 Movie News The movie "Chasing the Moon", written and directed by Qiao Liang, starring He Saifei, Yuan Wenkang, Tu Ling and others, was released nationwide on March 8. The movie "Chasing the Moon" was shortlisted for the Temple of Heaven Award at the 2022 Beijing International Film Festival and the Best Small and Medium-Cost Feature Film at the 36th China Golden Rooster Awards. Starring He Saifei won the Best Actress at the 36th China Golden Rooster Awards. The film is adapted from the novel "The Past" by Ai Wei, chairman of the Zhejiang Provincial Writers Association. It tells the story of a generation of famous actor Qi Qi (played by He Saifei) who is glamorous in front of the stage but broken behind the scenes, and is entangled between family affection and dreams and obsessions.

Actor Tu Ling plays Shaoxing opera actor Zhuang Lingling, Teacher Qi's favorite student, but at the most important moment of his career, he encountered Teacher Qi competing for his role. Interpreting the role of Zhuang Lingling places very high demands on actors. Zhuang Lingling has studied under the famous Yue opera actor Qi since she was a child. Tu Ling plays the role of a Yue opera troupe leader with solid child skills. It is a huge challenge for Tu Ling to achieve the body, temperament and charm of a professional Yue opera actor.

Regarding this, Tu Ling said frankly: Playing such a role is a good opportunity to challenge yourself, because an opera actor has her own special style. The gestures, singing, and eye charm of an opera actor are similar to my long-term drama performances, Film and television performances are all different. So I kept practicing, practicing like crazy. Yue Opera arias are played in the earphones every day, and I practice all the time except when I am eating, sleeping and filming. Director Qiao Liang also said: Tu Ling is really hard-working. She has been learning Yue Opera and Hangzhou dialect since the first day she joined the group. She learns it every day. She works really hard. The performance she finally presented is enough to make me believe that she is a Yue Opera actor. I am very satisfied.

The movie "Chasing the Moon" is now in theaters.
