August 7 is the 100th anniversary of the birth of Huang Zumo, the director of the movie "Lushan Love". Here, Entertainment Entertainment TV pays tribute to Huang Zumo artists!
Speaking of the movie "Lushan Love" released in 1980, many people still remember it vividly. Filmed by Shanghai Film Studio, directed by Huang Zumo, and starring Zhang Yu and Guo Kaimin, the film interprets the beautiful vision of compatriots at home and abroad who yearn for the reunification of the motherland through the story of Zhou Jun and Geng Hua, two young people who fell in love in Lushan.
Since the reform and opening up has just been made, the film has become the first film in China to mainly express the theme of love. Therefore, "Lushan Love" caused a huge sensation after its release. In August 2018, the film was rated as one of the top ten outstanding love movies in China on the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up.
Huang Zumo, whose ancestral home is Shexian County, Anhui Province, was born in Shanghai on August 7, 1921, and this year marks the 100th anniversary of his birth. In 1941, he was admitted to the National Drama College to study drama directing, and was in the same class as the famous director Xie Jin, and when he graduated in 1946, he entered the Shanghai Kunlun Film Company, began to work as a field reporter and assistant director, and later became a director.
Huang Zumo successively served as a director in Shanghai United Film Studio, Jiangnan Film Studio, Haiyan Film Studio and Shanghai Film Studio.
From more than 60 years of filming, Huang Zumo's directorial masterpieces mainly include "Shangjin Mountain", "Spring is Coming", "Three Eight Riverside", "Who is the Abandoned Person", "Love Detective", "Wind and Snow Dabie Mountain", "Red Flower Song", "Make-up Lesson", "Sister Jiang", "Lushan Love", "Zhang Heng", "Hua Tuo and Cao Cao", "Qin Chuanqing", "The Mystery of Yang Guifei", "Tang Dynasty Famous Phase", "Rong Ma Smoke and Dust" and other films.
But on the whole, "Lushan Love" is the most brilliant work of Huang Zumo's directorial career.
Just saw the original script of "Lushan Love", Huang Zumo asked to position the film as a "scenic lyrical feature film", in the process of re-creation, we must be committed to "out of love into the scene", so that the scene blends, with emotions moving, must not cover people with scenery, noisy, make the film into a tourist film, and dilute the story too much.
What is more memorable is that during the selection process of the heroine Zhou Jun, three people once entered the eyes of the decision-making level and the crew of the studio. They are actors Gong Xuehua, Wu Haiyan and Zhang Yu. Among them, Gong Xuehua and Wu Haiyan are gorgeous and foreign, and Zhang Yu is short and simple.
At the time of the audition, the first two were very beautiful, most people first preferred Gong Snowflake, and some people tended to Wu Haiyan. But only Huang Zumo has his own opinion, he feels that the first two are more than foreign, pure love is insufficient, and Zhang Yu, who is like a female student, is just the opposite, with a strong innocence and pure feelings.
In the end, Huang Zumo withstood the pressure, tried to overcome public opinion, and decided to use a newcomer Zhang Yu. He believes that foreign qi can be shaped and packaged through clothing and makeup, while innocence and pure love cannot be packaged.
Although choosing Zhang Yu at that time was a great risk, this just proved Huang Zumo's courage and boldness. Later, Guo Kaimin once wrote that when the film was first filmed, Director Huang said loudly in front of the entire film crew: "I just like the image characteristics of Xiao Guo and Zhang Yu, who are pure and innocent, two small and unsuspecting." This movie has the pure and pure beauty of Lushan, and the pure love and innocence of the two of them will definitely be very good to watch, very love to watch, and very enduring. Sure enough, in line with Huang Dao's prediction, after the release of "Lushan Love", it achieved great success, and Zhou Yun and Geng Hua became the idols in the hearts of that generation of young people.
In this regard, Zhang Yu is very grateful to Director Huang, she once said: "Dear Director Huang, I always think that you made me a real actor. ”
On February 19, 2011, the famous director Huang Zumo died of heart failure at Huashan Hospital in Shanghai at the age of 90.
Huang Zumo's wife is the famous Yue opera actor Jia Shunhua. The big matchmaker between them is the famous director Xie Jin. Huang Zumo once introduced: "In 1952, I married Jia Shunhua, and Xie Jin was our red bride. The couple has three daughters, one of whom is twins.
Huang Zumo strives for excellence in art, and in order to shoot good works, he even does not hesitate to be a "desperate sanlang". His daughter Huang Zhen admired her father very much, and in the book "Huang Zumo and His 'Lushan Love'"," she once said: "In my impression, my father's filming is not fatal. In the 1960s, when filming the movie "Wind and Snow Dabie Mountain", my father stayed in Dabie Mountain in Anhui Province and Xiaoxing'anling in Heilongjiang for several months, filming until the lumbar intervertebral disc was herniated, and my father himself fixed his waist with a steel wire, insisted on directing on a stretcher, and finally was carried down from the mountain and sent directly to the hospital..."
