Pippi Movies / A great movie recommendation every day
Many people say: Feelings are a matter, serious you will lose.
In most cases, the party that invests more is indeed easy to be trapped by emotions when encountering changes, hurt by feelings, and it is difficult to get out of them for a long time.
Many times, two people who love each other are obviously paying for each other in the way they think is appropriate.
But often it backfires, and once the consequences are caused, it is usually difficult to recover, and in the end there is only emptiness and sorrow!
The movie that Pigo recommends to you today tells a heartbreaking love story.
The film is titled "Li Mi's Conjecture", starring Zhou Xun and Deng Chao, and was released in China in 2008.
"Li Mi's Conjecture" 丨 2008
Director / Screenwriter: Cao Baoping
Starring: Zhou Xun / Deng Chao / Zhang Hanyu / Wang Baoqiang / Wang Yanhui / Wang Lemon / Yan Bei / Dong Linda / Hu Bao'an
Douban scored 7.8, which is a very good result in domestic genre films.
Even if you ignore the word of mouth, just for the acting skills of Zhou Gongzi in the film, this movie is worth savoring.
And this god-level performance not only showed her personal strength, but also won her a very high degree of affirmation in the circle.
With "Li Mi's Conjecture" that year, Zhou Xun won the Best Actress Award of four well-known film festivals, including the 3rd Asian Film Awards, the 9th Chinese Film and Media Awards, the 18th Asian Film Media Awards and the 27th Chinese Film Golden Rooster Awards, which is also well deserved.
So far, Zhou Xun has also become the first actor in the history of Chinese film to win the highest individual awards in the drama category across the Taiwan Straits and three places, namely the Chinese Film Golden Rooster Award ("Li Mi's Conjecture"), the Hong Kong Film Awards Film Queen ("If Love", "Night Feast"), and the Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards Film Queen ("If Love"), commonly known as the "Three Golden Slams" in the domestic film industry.
Zhou Xun was only 34 years old that year.
Such a supreme honor has only been won by two actors in the Chinese film industry so far, the other being Zhang Ziyi.
And Zhou Xun's performance in this film is perfect, and many Douban netizens even said that it is not too much to give Zhou Xun five stars.
At the beginning of the film, Li Mi, played by Zhou Xun, smoked while driving a taxi, and said a series of irregular numbers in his mouth.
In the eyes of others, it was a bunch of unrelated symbols, but in her heart, they were full of emotion.
That is not an ordinary number, it is the time when the boyfriend Fang Wen left to send the letter.
For four whole years, there were 54 letters, no mailing address, and the number was not much, but she remembered the contents of each one.
Ever since Fang Wen suddenly disappeared without greeting, Li Mi has taken up her former profession as a taxi driver.
She told the story between them to every passenger in the car, showing them photos of her boyfriend Fang Wen, hoping to get useful clues from their mouths.
However, no matter how carefully others listen, it seems to be of no avail.
As she waited, she continued to look for it, and sometimes complained to the passengers, saying that the sentence she wanted to say most when she saw Fang Wen was: Why the don't you die! ”
A passenger advised her not to read the letters, or to destroy them.
Some people also asked her to leave the city, completely away from those troubles, and slowly forget all the previous memories.
But she couldn't!
The more he hid, the more she wanted to find it.
She didn't believe he had just disappeared out of thin air, and she felt that her place in his heart was still important.
The turning point was the appearance of two countrymen.
One is called Qiu Shuitian, the other is called Qiu Huogui, they came to the city for a drug trade, and they are not familiar with life, so they took Li Mi's taxi.
The two looked unremarkable, unpretentious, and not suspicious, and would even smile and ask for a piece of change that Li Mi had not found.
However, these two people suddenly left when Li Mi got off the car to change money, and Qiu Huogui also took the magazine where Li Mi inserted Fang Wen's photo before getting off the car.
As soon as the two men stepped out of the car to the bridge where the agreed joint was, they saw a "neurotic" who was chanting poetry, and was just about to say hello and ask for a plane ticket to the trading place, when the "neurotic" suddenly jumped off the bridge.
This fall just crashed into a car under the bridge, and it was Fang Wen and his new girlfriend Fei Fei who drove it.
It turned out that after leaving Li Mi, Fang Wen had been staying in the city, secretly engaged in drug trafficking.
In order to prevent his identity from being revealed, Fang Wen has long assumed the pseudonym Ma Bing and sold clothes with Fifi.
This sudden accident also caused him to fall into a panic.
The death of the "connector" on the other side also made Qiu Shuitian and the two helpless.
In the rampage, the magazine that fell from the bridge just fell into the hands of Fang Wen under the bridge.
Seeing the photo of himself falling out of the magazine, Fang Wen was also stunned.
Qiu Shuitian and the two people on the bridge fled the scene in a hurry, and in order to complete the transaction, the two managed to buy their own tickets and tried to continue to transport the drugs to the designated place as agreed.
In the process of fleeing, the two encountered Li Mi again when they were preparing to take a taxi.
Qiu Huogui, who did not want to sit in Li Mi's car anymore, immediately calculated his mind and made a temporary intention to deceive Li Mi to a remote area, in an attempt to buy a plane ticket as soon as possible through blackmail.
Li Mi was so frightened, she was crying, she was shouting, she was shaking.
Even after the unsuccessful resistance, there was a moment of despair.
Fortunately, she still had reason, and in order to get rescue, she took advantage of the gap between Qiu Shuitian and Qiu Huogui's departure and desperately called for help from the passing vehicles.
However, there was no response.
In desperation, she recounted the plan, falsely claimed that the vehicle was about to run out of gas, went to a gas station, did not hesitate to use the car door to cover one of her hands, and wrote the word "110" in blood on the door, hoping to be rescued.
The gas station staff found Li Mi's distress signal and quickly called the police.
Qiu Shuitian, played by Wang Baoqiang, because of sympathy, but also because Li Mi said that he knew his girlfriend Xiao Xiang moved his compassion and let Go Li Mi before the police arrived.
The terrified Li Mi was just about to return to his normal life when he was suddenly notified by the police station to identify the body.
Lying in front of him was Qiu Huogui, the one who threatened and seduced her and had a vicious look in his eyes.
The police said he was overdosing and causing an adverse reaction.
In depth, it is actually a certain drug that causes the drug in the body to change, causing it to have abdominal pain and eventually lead to death.
Li Mi suddenly remembered the "scattered pain" that he handed him at that time, and it seemed that he took medicine to kill him.
Coincidentally, when Li Mi was preparing to leave the police station, he saw Fang Wen and Fei Fei who had come to handle the follow-up procedures for the accident.
She was both surprised and angry, but Fang Wen was like a different person, and there was another woman standing next to him.
No matter how Li Mi cried and asked, Fang Wen always ignored her and insisted that his name was Ma Bing.
In order to confirm her judgment and win back her lover's heart, Li Mi brought the letters sent to her by Fang Wen from home.
However, in order to catch big fish with a long line, the police made an article on the handwriting identification results, saying that Ma Bing's handwriting did not match the letter, and he was not the person Li Mi was looking for.
The matter did not end there, Li Mi was discouraged and sad, and even burned the letters out of despair.
Fang Wen, on the other hand, was suspected by his accomplices, and was first released with pigeons in the trading joint, then chased and killed, and finally fell from the overpass during the escape process and smashed into Li Mi's car.
Before dying, he told Fei Fei not to tell Li Mi the truth, and Fei Fei sent li Mi the money fang Wen had earned from selling clothes in recent years according to Fang Wen's instructions.
In the end, in the video left by Fang Wen before his death, many things have answers.
It turned out that Fang Wen, who was with Li MiQingmei Bamboo Horse, had been unpopular with the woman's family for many years.
After the end of the college entrance examination, because of the failure of the list, he felt that there was no hope for the future.
Although Li Mi is willing to accompany him to suffer hardships and hardships, he hopes that his lover will live the life he wants without worry.
So, over the years, while desperately trying to make money, he was secretly observing Li Mi. In order to help Li Mi realize her wish to open a supermarket as soon as possible and bring her happiness.
After many defeats, Fang Wen went astray and began drug trafficking.
He fell deeper and deeper, and finally realized that he could not go back and could no longer accompany Li Mi.
This film seems to have a tragic ending, but for Li Mi, it finally confirms that Fang Wen still loves her and should be happy.
If you can turn back the clock, I wonder if they will regret their original choice?
However, Pigo believes that Li Mi, played by Zhou Xun, will not.
From the moment she appeared, her eyes were full of determination.
Later, when the magazine was lost, she searched like crazy, asked Qiu Huogui like crazy, and even did not hesitate to do anything to him, so that the other party had evil intentions against herself.
After seeing Fang Wen, she wanted to cry while she was patient, and finally became a prayer.
There were no exorcisms of the previous imagination, only seemingly strong questioning and uncontrollable tears.
After Fang Wen was indifferent and pretended to admit her identity, in addition to apologizing, she was overwhelmed for a while.
Her sadness was heartbreaking.
When watching the video, the ups and downs of emotions in a short period of time, sometimes released and sometimes hidden, no crying, only from smiling to gradually sighing, sadness comes from it, all these emotions are controlled so well by Zhou Xun, it is difficult to believe that she is just performing.
Even the monologues that she finally narrated in the love process of the two people, who first controlled their emotions and then spoke slowly, made people feel very distracted.
That sentence - falling in love with me is the happiest thing he is so big. Between the cries and laughter, the viewer is brought into their story.
Some people say, good actor, she cries you can cry with her, she laughs you can't help but laugh with her.
Zhou Xun is like this, she is like an elf, acting is what it is, always bringing you into the mood of the character's current.
Each time, she was able to remove the personal symbolic performance and strive to achieve a new breakthrough.
Gao Xiaosong said: "She has a fiancée's face, and her eyes are full of stars." How can such a Zhou Xun not be loved?
From Taiping in "Daming Palace Words", to Du Xinyu in "Like Fog Like Fog and Like Wind", to Xiao Wei in "Painted Skin", Zhou Xun's eyes are always full of clarity.
In this "Li Mi's Conjecture", she did her best when performing, and some people even said that she used too much force.
Such efforts have not been disappointed in the end.
Wen Jun, who was the chairman of the Hong Kong Film Awards, commented on her: "Zhou Xun's acting skills make people have nothing to say, and they unconditionally obey Zhou Xun's acting skills. ”
On this film alone, four film queens reached the "three gold slams".
Zhou Xun, it's worth it!
Over the years, Zhou Xun has been active in the field of film and television dramas, constantly breaking through, and her attitude and professionalism are obvious to all.
The transformation from one of the "Four Little Flower Dans" to one of the "Four Great Flower Dans" has also been witnessing.
Recently, I heard that she planned and hosted another show called "Today's Film Critics and Performers' Speech", which has been broadcast to the second season.
The program invites powerful actors, there are exchanges, there are collisions, just ten minutes, let people see in addition to speculation, but also professionalism.
As Zhou Xun himself said in the interview, nothing was done during the show, only the performance.
This attitude is pure enough and serious enough, and it is too difficult to think of not to be solemn.
In reality, Zhou Xun has always treated feelings like this, no matter what the result is, he will love hard.
I know that some authors have such a comment, describing Zhou Xun like this: every relationship is vigorously invested, every lover is unreservedly open, and every relationship is treated frankly and honestly.
Nowadays, she and Gao Shengyuan are happy and sweet, and this innocent mentality must have played a lot of role.
Perhaps each of us should learn from this purity.
Anyway, I wish Xun Ge'er happiness and happiness forever!
