Back then, when filming "Tang Bohu Points Autumn Fragrance", Li Lizhi told Gong Li: There will be a scene later, you will be beaten into a pig's head, and then Stephen Chow will use "return me drifting boxing" to help you restore, and you need to wear a pig's head makeup of blue and purple.
When she received "Tang Bohu Points Autumn Fragrance", it was the time of Gong Li's fire, and at that time, she won numerous awards at home and abroad with her "Red Sorghum", "Red Lantern Hanging High", "Qiu Ju Fights Lawsuits", "Overlord Farewell Ji" and other well-known masterpieces at home and abroad, and she was in the limelight.
And at that time, it was also the peak of Hong Kong films, so Gong Li also intended to enter the Hong Kong film industry, and by coincidence, she soon received an invitation from Li Lizhi and Stephen Chow, hoping that she could come to shoot "Tang Bohu Points Autumn Fragrance".
And the producer of the film, Xiang Huaqiang, the boss of Yongsheng Film Company, waved his hand even more and directly dumped Gong Li 2 million, allowing her to have fun in Hong Kong.
So with the support of Bole Zhang Yimou, Gong Li took over this play, but he did not expect that this movie would become the work that Gong Li was most reluctant to mention and regretted in the future.
Everyone knows that "Tang Bohu Points Autumn Fragrance" is a comedy, and the funny way in it is a nonsensical way unique to Stephen Chow.
But because Gong Li studied formal performance in the acting school, he is a serious academy, and he does not understand Stephen Chow's unique funny way.
In addition, at that time, she had just made a name for herself internationally, and she had idol baggage, and she was unwilling to destroy her image, so when she starred in the film, her performance was very unpinched, and she always couldn't let go, which was incompatible with other actors.
For example, there is a scene in the film where the hair of Mrs. Hua, Chunxiang, Xia Xiang and others stands on end, but only Gong Li's Qiuxiang remains in her original appearance, and this scene is actually not specially arranged by the director.
But when shooting, Gong Li maintained her image everywhere, no matter how Li Lizhi and Stephen Chow persuaded, she just didn't agree to put her hair on end.
In addition, there is another scene in the script, and in the end because Gong Li's refusal was not filmed, Li Lizhi once recalled that during filming, he told Gong Li: There will be a scene later, you will be beaten into a pig's head, and then Stephen Chow uses "Return Me Drifting Fist" to help you restore, and you need to wear a blue and purple pig's head makeup.
Unexpectedly, Gong Li's eyes immediately glared at the boss when she heard it, thinking that the crew was partnering with her, saying that she would not shoot anything, no matter how everyone persuaded it was useless, and finally could only give up the filming of this section.
"Tang Bohu Points Autumn Fragrance" is known as "a classic of postmodernism" and is one of the masterpieces of Stephen Chow's costume comedy, and the classic dialogues in the film are still impressive, such as calling cockroaches "Xiaoqiang" and so on.
In addition to Stephen Chow's funny as always, most of the supporting actors' performances are also in place, such as Zhu Zhishan played by Chen Baixiang, Sister Pomegranate played by Yuan Qiongdan, and Mrs. Hua played by Zheng Peipei are very funny.
But compared to their funny treasures, Gong Li's serious performance seems out of place, and in an interview many years later, when asked about it, Gong Li also expressed great regret, regretting that he did not fully integrate into it when filming.
Gong Li's performance aside, this movie is just looking at it now, still watching it once and laughing once, full of childhood memories.
It's just that "Xiaoqiang" is still that cockroach, but Stephen Chow is already full of white hair, no longer the same Stephen Chow back then, which makes people have to sigh that time flies, and the years hurriedly urge people to grow old.
So, do you remember those funny dialogues in the film?
