The theatrical film "Wuhai" recently held a premiere ceremony in Beijing, and the main creators such as director Zhou Ziyang, starring Huang Xuan, Yang Zishan, and Tu Men attended.
At the premiere ceremony, the creator not only shared his creative experience with the audience, but some couples and audiences were "reconciled on the spot" because they were touched by the plot of the film. As a film work that reflects the emotional life of husband and wife, "Wuhai" brings many thoughts on practical issues such as marriage and childbirth, economic disputes and so on. It is reported that the film is scheduled to be officially released on October 29.
Huang Xuan's rejection of character facebook does not define whether the character is good or bad
The movie "Wuhai" tells the story of Yang Hua (played by Huang Xuan) and Miao Wei (played by Yang Zishan) who experience conflict in three days until they get out of control and cross the line. In the film, the husband and wife played by Huang Xuan and Yang Zishan have a very fierce quarrel scene, from excessive language to grumpy smashing of the fish tank, the whole scene is explosive, and it also sets the tone for the subsequent development of the story, and the relationship between the two is really difficult to repair.
Yang Hua, played by Huang Xuan, has no fixed job and has failed to invest, before he also mortgaged the house bought by his wife to borrow money, at this time he is facing the problem of creditors coming to the door to collect debts. Yang Hua belongs to the typical people who are forced to the end of the road by life, even in a well-off family, they can't grasp happiness, and the three-day life shown in the film can be described as a chicken feather.
For the role of Yang Hua, Huang Xuan said in the communication with the audience after the screening: "When performing, it will not define the good and bad of this role, which avoids the face of the character. The first thing to consider is how the character will react to different things, making the character look more real. ”
Speaking of the most intense quarrel between the husband and wife in the film, Huang Xuan recalled that he chatted with Yang Zishan and the director in the room for five or six hours that day, and had been brewing emotions. After good communication, the emotions were finally exploded to the extreme on the spot. Yang Zishan also said: "This is a role I have never tried, and it is also a very special life experience. ”
Throughout the play, Huang Xuan's character Yang Hua is always after the ups and downs of emotions, and the story of the three days in the play is also the three days when the fate of this character is constantly conflicting and twisting. Huang Xuan shows a strong explosive force in the play, and interprets the complex mentality of ordinary people encountering difficulties in a particularly good way.
It is reported that in order to maintain the role state, Huang Xuan insists on staying in the darkest and remote room of the hotel even after the play, and he needs to put himself in an uncomfortable environment. And when acting, in addition to the injured special effects makeup, he was photogenic without makeup the whole time, and his puffiness in the play was also real. He said that only in this way can we really enter the role.
Yang Zishan was given the "quarrel secret" and the husband and wife audience were touched and embraced
In the post-screening exchange of the movie, Yang Zishan won a book "How to Fight Correctly" donated by female fans. Because female fans said that they saw her quarrel scene in the film, they hoped that the book could help Yang Zishan. Yang Zishan responded with a smile: "Now that I read this book, I can only go home and fight with my husband." ”
At the premiere, the acting school Tu also talked about the wonderful tricks for husband and wife to get along, and he summed it up from a male perspective: "I am wrong, I change, you are wrong." This caused a lot of laughter on the scene. But after laughing, you can also recall that this passage is very reasonable. In "Wuhai", Yang Hua and Miao Wei are too obsessive to argue about who is right and who is wrong, which eventually leads to contradictions that are difficult to reconcile. If Yang Hua knew to take a step back, the husband and wife in the film would be another ending.
"Wuhai" is director Zhou Ziyang's second feature film, and his directorial debut "Old Beast" is starred by Tu. With their wonderful performance in "Old Beast", Tu Men won the trophy of the 54th Golden Horse Awards.
Tu Men played Yang Zishan's father in the film, a majestic but loving image. At the premiere scene, the filmmakers also specially prepared a "good quarrel" agreement. Under the supervision of "father-in-law", Huang Xuan and Yang Zishan signed on the spot, and after the two leading actors, "Bixin Three Consecutive Shooting" made the audience directly shout "there is sweetness".
There was also a small episode at the premiere scene, a man told the creators in the post-screening exchange session that he was in the cooling off period of divorce at this time, and when he watched the entire film, he was deeply moved, and he also understood that the husband and wife should communicate more and more and tolerate. Coincidentally, he sat with his wife to watch the movie that day, and with everyone's encouragement, the couple embraced together, and the audience applauded.
The film is filmed in Wuhai City, Inner Mongolia, and the surreal original beauty of Wuhai shown in the film is also integrated into the context of the entire story.
To this end, the film's creators also mentioned warm greetings from Wuhai at the premiere scene, and the leading actors Huang Xuan and Yang Zishan were both happy to be personally awarded the "Honorary Citizen of Wuhai" by the leaders of the Wuhai Municipal Party Committee. As a final surprise, this honor contains both precious memories of that creative process and a recognition.
