On the evening of November 3, the exhibition of Huang Jianzhong's film works sponsored by the China Film Archive opened in Beijing, which began with the movie "Good Family Women". In fact, from November 3 to November 24, the Art Cinema of the China Film Archive will screen 10 films of 14 films by famous director Huang Jianzhong, the first of which is "Women of a Good Family".
Huang Jianzhong is a representative of the fourth generation of Chinese film directors. For decades, he has always pointed the lens at reality, aimed at history, written the magnificent torrent of the times with rich artistic imagination, and dedicated many classic works to Chinese films, such as "Little Flower", "Ruyi", "Good Family Woman", "Police Officer of the Year of the Dragon", "New Year", "Dahong Rice Shop", "Red Lady", "My 1919", "Smiling Proud of the Jianghu", "The Fission of the Great Qin Empire", "Song of the Great Wind" and so on.
The first film screened at the film festival was "Women of a Good Family", released in 1985, one of Huang Jianzhong's most important masterpieces. The film tells the story of Xingxian, played by Cong Shan, who married Yijiazhai in the Qianbei Mountains at the age of 18, and married Shao Wei, who was only 6 years old. As a child bridesmaid, she takes care of her little husband, honors her mother-in-law, and is a good daughter-in-law who is praised by others. But Kai Ping's arrival made her really move...
While accusing feudal society of destroying women, "Women of Good Families" reflects on history and culture and calls for beautiful humanity. In addition to winning a number of awards at the 6th Golden Rooster Awards of Chinese Film, it also won eight awards such as the International Film Critics Organization Award at the 25th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival and the Best Film Award at the 18th Atlantic International Film Festival, winning international honors for Chinese films.
Cong Shan is an actress who is very familiar to middle-aged and elderly friends. In 1982, Cong Shan, who was a junior in the undergraduate acting class of the Central Academy of Drama, was selected by director Xie Jin to star in the heroine Li Xiuzhi in the movie "Wrangler". After the film was released, it caused a huge sensation, and the film won the 1982 Excellent Feature Film Award of the Ministry of Culture and the Best Feature Film Award of the 6th Hundred Flowers Awards for Popular Films, and Cong Shan herself was nominated for the Best Actress at the 3rd Golden Rooster Awards.
When Huang Jianzhong chose the heroine for "Good Family Woman", the first person who flashed in his mind was Cong Shan. Later, he asked Xie Jin for advice, and Xie Jin said that you must not hesitate, you must choose Cong Shan.
At that time, Cong Shan had just graduated and was assigned to the China Youth Arts Theater as a drama actor. At this time, Cong Shan is not a big star who shines because of "Wrangler", but a new actor at the trough of her life, because around her, there is jealousy and accusations everywhere, and in the theater, she is not used reasonably, but mainly runs dragon sets.
When Huang Jianzhong invited Cong Shan to play this role, Cong Shan, who was at the low point of life, was very happy and immediately agreed. Cong Shan rushed to the leader and hoped to agree to her play this role, but unexpectedly, the leader rejected her on the spot, saying that in the future, everyone will learn from you, then it will not be messed up, and even said that as long as you go without permission, you will fire her.
The helpless Huang Jianzhong reported this matter to the then director of the North Film Factory, and the leader said, It is just right to be expelled, we want people to come. In the end, with a lot of effort, Cong Shan was finally allowed to shoot this scene.
When watching the film, Cong Shan could not hide her excitement, and from time to time took out a tissue to wipe her tears. When communicating with the audience, Cong Shan said: "Although it is a movie I acted in, when I first watched it, I cried in many places. ”
Cong Shan said: "After watching this movie with more than thirty years of accumulation and growth, I think I am still a competent actor, and it turns out that I can convey my heart without lines, or with the least lines, as long as the camera is given to me, I know what to do." ”
This is really a good actor.
