The high-profile biographical film "Mui Yanfang" will be released locally next Thursday (25th). After the film was released in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan last week, it gained good word of mouth. Because the film is about The life of Mui Yanfang, and interspersed with many of her popular Cantonese classics, many fans hope that the film can be screened in the original Cantonese version locally. It is reported that the film was also screened in Taiwan in the original Cantonese tone.
According to the "New Ming Daily" report, the Singapore Chinese Film Festival will be screening "Mui Yanfang" at 7 p.m. on the 23rd, which is also the only Cantonese original sound screening in the local area, but it is not a ticket sale, and only members of the Film Association are invited to watch. After the Singapore Chinese Film Festival released the details of the ticket request in the official book on the 16th, a large number of fans poured into the official website to ask for tickets, resulting in downtime, so a netizen signed Kok Whye Low launched a petition on the Internet to strive for the film to be screened locally in Cantonese.
In addition, in Mei Yanfang's 40 years of life, there have been nine love affairs, but none of them have ended. In the movie, the audience will have the opportunity to learn about Mei Yanfang's two love stories, including Lin Guobin and Kondo Makoto, but the audience is dissatisfied with the film's suspicion of whitewashing the "scumbag" Kondo Masahiko. Because the movie mentions that "Goto Xihui" takes great care of Mei Yanfang, but the two eventually separated because of their careers. However, at that time, it was pointed out that the relationship between the two ended, all because of the constant entanglement of Kondo Makoto and other actresses, which broke Mei Yanfang's heart.
In addition, although the film shows Mei Yanfang's life, the depiction of the Mei family only focuses on her sisterly love with her sister Mei Aifang, and there is no trace of Mei Mama (Mei Qinmei) and her brother Mei Qiming in the play. Mei Qiming thought that the movie felt distorted without Mei Ma.
