In "Qiannu Ghost 3", the old monk and the grandmother fight this part of the scene, the soundtrack together can make people's blood boil, by the fans called it an eternal classic, and the baiyun Zen master is played by the old drama bone Liu Xun, he is the Maoshan master brother in "Zombie Supreme", but also the East Factory Grand Eunuch Jia Ting in "New Dragon Gate Inn", 47-year-old debuted but he played countless Hong Kong film classics, demon monks, high monks, eunuchs, the role is also a key switch between good and evil, known by fans as "a thousand faces as it comes".
Although the acquaintance is shallow, it seems to be over the years, hello everyone, here is the acquaintance entertainment, I am Xiao Xiang, why should I have known each other, with the most true story, uncover the first memories in your heart.
Liu Xun, born in Beijing in 1939, began studying Peking Opera at the age of six. In 1958, at the age of 19, Liu Xun was assigned to teach at the National Peking Opera House, and later left Beijing for Hong Kong, China, and in the early days of going to Hong Kong, Liu Xun was still engaged in the opera industry, serving as a lecturer at the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts, the main research direction was the inheritance and development of Cantonese opera, and during the years of teaching, Luo Jiaying, Li Qifeng, Li Long, etc. were all guided by him.
In 1986, Xu Ke invited Liu Xun to serve as an opera director in "Dao Ma Dan", but inadvertently opened the door to the film world for Liu Xun. In 1987, in the "Zombie Supreme" starring Lin Zhengying and Qian Xiaohao, Liu Xun played the role of Maoshan master brother Shi Jian and officially debuted. In the play, he is sinister and vicious, relying on catching lone ghosts to improve his Taoist behavior, leaving a deep impression on fans. In 1990, Liu Xun cooperated with director Xu Ke again, starring in the villain of the movie "Smiling Proud of the Jianghu" In the East Factory Grand Eunuch Gu Jinfu, with a gloomy look, and the image of the bad guy portrayed in three points between his hands and feet. In 1992, he fought again in Dongchang, playing Jia Ting, one of the four major stalls, in which he played the opponent of the film emperor Liang Jiahui, which made people watch straight and addictive, and the tit-for-tat dialogue between the two showed the deceit in the jianghu.
Some people say that Liu Xun plays a decent person with a beard, and a villain who plays a villain without a beard. In the 1993 film "Huang Feihong's Three Lions Battle for Supremacy", he played Huang Feihong's father, Huang Qiying, a majestic, upright, enlightened and lovely old man, who was said by fans to be, except for Liu Xun, there was no second person who could be qualified for the image of Huang Feihong's father. However, he changed the villain's sinister cunning, and it is really hard to believe that this is the same actor's character.
What can make fans call him "a thousand faces", it is Pudu Cihang in "Qiannu Ghost 2 Human Road", which is a demon monk disguised by a thousand-year-old centipede spirit. When he pretended to be a holy monk, he had a compassionate face and the Buddha's light behind him, but in the blink of an eye, he could commit evil and bring misfortune to the world. A song of Sanskrit is enough to kill people, in the film, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military officials were cut off from the heart and lungs to eat only a shell, I believe this scene is still a lot of childhood shadows after the 80s and 90s.
In "Nine Pin Sesame Officer", do you remember the grand eunuch Li Lianying, who he played? It is the eunuch who fights with Bao Longxing's neck to get red in the face, arguing with people is angry to the point, when he hears Bao Longxing say "another dead eunuch", his face can't believe his ears and the white eyes turn over the action of no one obeys, it really brings the feminine characteristics of the eunuch to life, while being ironic and funny, it also allows fans to see Liu Xun's superb acting skills as a supporting role.
Some people say that he is "the epitome of the golden years of a generation of Hong Kong films", although he has been playing supporting roles over the years, the charm of the characters he has created is no less than that of the protagonists, Jia Ting, Gu Jinfu, Li Lianying's evil deeds, Huang Qiying's awe-inspiring righteousness, each role has subtle differences in every move, a smile, which has created his legendary story of "a thousand faces".
Liu Xun, who is now an elderly person, was most recently active on the screen or in the movie "A Generation of Grandmasters", accustomed to his Cantonese, and suddenly a mouthful of authentic Beijing flavor made many people not recognize that this was the "thousand faces as come" at that time. Although there are only five minutes of shots, his superb acting skills can still control the role with ease. In recent years, Liu Xun seems to have disappeared from people's sight, he retreated behind the scenes, and picked up the old Peking Opera, low-key inheritance and development of traditional arts.
On April 16 this year, at the awarding ceremony of the Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts in China, Wang Zulan was on the list, but the old drama bone Liu Xun was awarded the honorary academician, and there was not much media coverage, at the ceremony site, the 82-year-old Liu Xun was in good spirits, with a straight waist and looked in good shape. Being low-key may be the best guarantee for old age.
