In 2007, the movie "Color Ring" was released, which immediately caused heated discussions.
Many people are amazed by Ang Lee's delicacy and boldness, and many people are addicted to the classic shots of Tony Leung and Tang Wei.
After the film was released, it won many awards.
However, Li An looked at Tang Wei and said something meaningful:
"Whether Tang Wei can marry depends on her blessing."
What really happened while filming the film?
15 years have passed, and now watching "Lust Ring", is it a masterpiece, or is it the absurdity of the flow of desire?
Ang Lee: A gentle and delicate director
A humble gentleman, gentle as jade.
Ang Lee is a gentle and delicate person, and this emotion is reflected in his personality and film works.
Li An used to live a difficult life, completely relying on his wife to "support", and he did not work for 5 or 6 years.
At the height of his anxiety, Ang Lee wanted to learn computers.
As a result, he was stopped by his wife Lin Huijia: There are so many people who learn computers, there is no shortage of you Ang Lee, and your talent should be used in movies.
Perhaps it was precisely because of his wife's understanding and encouragement that Ang Lee later shined in the film industry.
He successively made a "family trilogy": "Pusher", "Wedding Banquet" and "Eating Men and Women".
Later, he won great fame with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".
Even so, Ang Lee is a very humble person in front of his family -
When he was at home, Ang Lee cooked for his family, and later he often went out to make movies, and he would fill his refrigerator with food.
Once in an interview, Ang Lee smiled coyly and said:
It's not that if you become someone else's husband or someone else's father, you can be respected, and you need to fight for it.
The essence of tenderness is tolerance.
The Tao Te Ching says: Jiang Hai can be the king of a hundred grains, and because of his goodness, he can be the king of a hundred grains.
The water is low into the sea, and the people are low in capacity.
With enough tolerance, there will be a gentleness and delicacy for the world.
The gentleness and delicacy of Ang Lee's film works is in stark contrast to the "rough masters" Jiang Wen.
Once, the script of "Color Ring" was first handed over to Jiang Wen, and Jiang Wen flipped through two pages and threw it aside:
"It's a girl's thing, you can't shoot it."
Later, the script arrived in Li An's hands, Li An read the script and read it, saw the emotional part, and couldn't help but cry.
When we watch Jiang Wen's movies, there is an unconcealable masculinity, which is a characteristic unique to Jiang Wen.
Ang Lee, on the other hand, is delicate, and he is good at using the lens to shoot the ravines in the depths of human nature.
Therefore, only Ang Lee can make "Color Ring".
Tony Leung: After filming "Color Ring", he fell seriously ill
In fact, before the filming of "Color Ring", Ang Lee prepared a stuntman for Tony Leung.
But Tony Leung refused.
At that time, the person who was going to be a stuntman for Tony Leung was Zheng Kai, who was still studying in the play.
Zheng Kai heard that the crew of "Color Ring" was auditioning, so he took the initiative to come to the door.
He chatted with Ang Lee for a while, and the director was very satisfied with him and asked him to go directly to the crew the next day.
Before leaving, Zheng Kai asked uneasily: Who do I play?
The director's assistant told him: Mr. Tony Leung's stand-in.
As a result, Zheng Kai refused.
No matter who refused, when "Color Ring" was filmed, Tony Leung did not use a stand-in, and he completed all the scenes by himself.
Later, in an interview, Tony Leung confessed: "Color Ring" is a great challenge for himself, he fell seriously ill after filming the movie, and he has been cultivating at home for half a year before recovering.
A "Color Ring", some people see "fake drama really done", but some people see dedication.
After the release of "Color Ring", Tony Leung and Carina Lau went to the theater to watch, and when they saw half, Carina Lau walked out with a green face.
Entertainment reporters surrounded Carina Lau and asked: How to see Tony Leung's acting skills in the movie.
Carina Lau just replied: he is an actor, that is his job.
Carina Lau, who is also an actress, must understand how much Tony Leung has paid for this job.
Some of the shots in "Color Ring" have been shot 13 times.
Once, Ang Lee looked at the sweaty Tony Leung and asked in a low voice: I see you still have some strength?
Tony Leung nodded.
Ang Lee encouraged: Then shoot again.
It was such hard work that made the emotionally delicate "Color Ring".
Tang Wei: The actor who sacrifices the most
Because of "Color Ring", the most controversial is Tang Wei.
Before that, after graduating from Chinese opera, she has been unknown and has only starred in one movie "Police Flower Swallow".
While making this movie, she knew her boyfriend Tian Yu.
The two fell in love because of the play, even to the point of talking about marriage.
At this moment, Tang Wei received an invitation from Li An.
Because Tang Wei has an atmospheric beauty in him, this beauty is very classical and very attractive.
Before filming, Tang Wei knew that if he made this movie, he would gain a lot, but he would also lose a lot.
But she eventually decided to star.
After the release of "Color Ring", Tang Wei became popular.
Unfortunately, shortly after the movie was released, teacher Edison Chen circulated some photos because of computer repair.
On the cusp of the entertainment industry, Tang Wei was blocked.
In fact, when the movie was released, Ang Lee, as a director, knew Tang Wei's dedication, and he once said: Whether Tang Wei can marry depends on her blessing.
Even, in order to protect Tang Wei, Li An recognized Tang Wei as a righteous daughter after the movie was completed.
After Tang Wei was banned, Li An arranged for Tang Wei to study abroad through his friends, and only later made a comeback in the entertainment industry.
After her comeback, Tang Wei became a famous actress.
Maybe when you want to get something, you always have to give something.
epilogue
15 years have passed, and now watching "Color Ring", you will find that under Ang Lee's lenses, there is actually a deep human nature hidden.
This is not a simple passion story.
In it, you will see everyone's gentle hesitation and confusion.
Doesn't this look like the actors themselves at the time?
You always have to choose a path, then go down, and after walking through a period of darkness, you can see the bright day of hope.
Color is the appearance, and the precepts are the truth.
If for Ang Lee's "Color Ring" you only see "color", then, please watch it again.
