湯唯憑《月滿軒尼詩》一片復出

中國女演員湯唯和電影導演岸西(Ivy Ho)在香港國際電影節上露面,出席她們合作的浪漫喜劇片《月滿軒尼詩》(Crossing Hennessy)在周日晚間的首映。

放映場內座無虛席,觀眾們大聲索要湯唯的照片和簽名,這是湯唯因出演《色戒》(Lust Caution)一片在中國大陸被封殺后首次出演電影。由李安(Ang Lee)導演的這部間諜片引起了廣泛爭議,片中有直露的性場面。

湯唯是中國大陸人,說普通話,當她在首映式現場展示了一定的廣東話技巧時,贏得了現場觀眾的掌聲。她在《月滿軒尼詩》一片中也有廣東話臺詞。

《月滿軒尼詩》講述的是兩個孤獨單身男女被雙方家庭撮合到一起的故事,由湯唯和張學友(Jacky Cheung)主演,張學友未出席周日的首映。這部影片由岸西導演,她想通過此片探索人心的“神秘性”。

參演此片的鮑起靜也出席了首映式,她去年憑借《天水圍的日與夜》(The Way We Are)一片獲得香港電影金像獎(Hong Kong Film Awards)最佳女演員獎。出席首映式的還有同樣出演此片的美籍華人演員安志杰(Andy On)和香港資深演員盧冠廷(Lowell Lo)。《月滿軒尼詩》將于4月1日在香港公開上映。

Chinese actress Tang Wei and director Ivy Ho appeared at the Hong Kong International Film Festival for the Sunday-night premiere of their romantic comedy Crossing Hennessy.

Attendees at the sold-out premiere clamored for photos and autographs of Ms. Tang, whose appearance is her first since she was blacklisted in China following her graphic sex scenes in Ang Lees controversial espionage drama Lust Caution.

Ms. Tang, a native of mainland China and a Mandarin speaker, drew applause from the audience when she displayed the considerable Cantonese-language skills she also demonstrates in the movie.

Crossing Hennessy is the story of a pair of lonely singles—Ms. Tang and Jacky Cheung, a no-show at the premiere—pushed together by their families. It is described by second-time director Ms. Ho as an exploration of the ‘mysteries of the human heart.

Also appearing at the premiere were co-stars Paw Hee-ching, who won best actress at last years Hong Kong Film Awards for The Way We Are, Chinese-American actor Andy On, and veteran Hong Kong actor Lowell Lo. Crossing Hennessy opens for general release in Hong Kong on April 1.
