When it comes to "Man to Middle Age", the first thing that may come to mind by some viewers is the TV series of the same name starring Chen Chong and Feng Yuanzheng in 2009. But what Hongxiu wants to introduce today is the 1982 Changchun Film Studio's film "Man to Middle Age". The film is based on Chen Rong's novel of the same name, starring Pan Hong and Da Shi chang. Co-directed by Wang Qimin and Sun Yu, Sun Yu is a well-known director and actor in the long film studio.

"Man to Middle Age" is well produced and the plot is touching, and has won many awards: excellent feature film at the 1983 Ministry of Culture Excellent Film Award, best feature film at the 6th Hundred Flowers Awards for Popular Films, and best feature film at the 3rd Golden Rooster Awards for Chinese Cinema. But in fact, the release of this movie has gone through twists and turns, and the sensitive theme has been approved after many reviews. The film sharply shows the audience that in the 1980s, intellectuals worked hard but lived in poverty, which had a strong practical significance.
Pan Hong plays Lu Wenting, an ophthalmologist with superb medical skills. Pan Hong was 28 years old at the time, intellectual and quiet, outstanding appearance, and won the love of many audiences. Because of her excellent performance in "Middle-aged People", Pan Hong won the "Best Actress award at the 3rd Chinese Film Golden Rooster Awards" and was nominated for the "Best Actress of the 6th Hundred Flowers Awards for Popular Films".
Later, Pan Hong also played Zeng Shusheng in "Cold Night", Li Shuxian in "Fire Dragon", and Wan Rong in "The Last Empress", all of which had good results. Because most of the characters she played were bitter, she won the title of "Tragic Queen".
In recent years, Pan Hong has slowly faded out of the show business circle. Most of her roles in TV dramas are tricky and mean "evil mothers-in-law", but like several famous villain actors in the last century, Pan Hong in life is kind and kind. Pan Hong was only 24 years old when she married Mijiashan, and for divorce, Pan Hong once said frankly: "Divorce is a relief for me, and it is also the biggest loss." Pan Hong, who turned 67 in November this year, is still alone.
Da Shi often plays Lu Wenting's husband Fu Jiajie. In the 1980s, Dashi chang not only had a handsome appearance, good character, and his acting skills were also quite superb, so he had many "fans". He has participated in many films such as "The Young Generation", "Unforgettable Battle", "Spring Seedlings", "Return of Yan" and so on, all of which have achieved great results and established a good reputation among the audience. He and his wife, Wang Wenhao, have spent 55 years together since 1966.

Lu Wenting's good friend Jiang Yafen is played by Zhao Kui'e. She is a regular in TV dramas, playing most of the supporting roles, but impressive.

Famous film actor Zheng Qianlong plays Jiang Yafen's husband Liu Xueyao. He has participated in many movies and TV series, such as "We Are the Eighth Route Army" and "Hua Tuo and Cao Cao". When it comes to Zheng Qianlong, who came from a Kunqu family, everyone must be most impressed by Luo Gang, who he played in "Longing".
