Sigourney Weaver: Family is more important than career
On June 19, 2006, the much-watched film "Snow Cake" was screened in Shanghai Studios. The heroine of the film, Sigourney Weaver, glamorously attended the audience meeting before the screening.
When Sigourney appeared on the red carpet in the lobby of Shanghai Studios last night in a generous and natural black suit, people's eyes were focused on the veteran American movie star. At the meeting, Sigourney gave the Shanghai fans a small surprise-she walked on stage and put on her glasses solemnly, took out a small note, and began to read the above words in Chinese, "Hello everyone, I’m glad to come. When I arrive in Shanghai, I love Shanghai and I love you." The audience immediately applauded excitedly. Sigourney Weaver asked a volunteer film festival worker to teach her this opening remark. After only two hours of study, she was able to speak very well.
This is Sigourney’s first visit to Shanghai, and her husband and daughter came with her, “This is a great city. I’ve never seen such a great place with so many beautiful buildings. They are very friendly.” Yesterday, Sigourney visited the Oriental Pearl Tower, went shopping, and bought many things. “I bought clothes for herself, her husband, daughter, and friends who came with her.” She said excitedly. Sigourney said that she is looking forward to making more friends in the next few days and looking forward to having the opportunity to visit Shanghai again in the future.
Sigourney's "Snow Cake" was once the opening film of the Berlin International Film Festival . This warm film about love and affection has a good reputation. Sigourney's role is a woman with a physical impairment. Tell how she slowly integrates into society. "This film was very difficult when filming in Canada. This role was a big challenge for me. In order to play this patient well, I did a year of investigation before I got to know this kind of people." However, Sigourney emphasized this. The role is exactly the type she has always wanted to play. In fact, Sigourney is a late bloomer in the international film scene. She has always been committed to stage performances before, but she feels that all this is not too late, and she is very lucky. "I have received 3 movie appointments this year. , Two of the films originally had male protagonists, but they were later rewritten as female protagonists for me.” This makes Sigourney Weaver very proud.
Sigourney has starred in many famous films, including classic movies like "Alien", but it is as difficult for her to tell her which one she likes the most, just like asking a mother to choose her favorite child. However, she still mentioned the movie that impressed her the most-"Mist in the Jungle", which was nominated for an Oscar for Best Actress. Sigourney starred in a female scientist who had lived with a gorilla for 18 years, and of course the other starring role she played with was a gorilla.
Although Sigourney's career is getting better and better, there is nothing to her that makes her nostalgic more than family. Sigourney's husband runs a theater, and Sigourney is also a companion. They both have a passion for theatrical performances. "I have a very good husband. I hope that I can spend more time with my family without filming frequently. My daughter is also a very patient girl and is very supportive of my career. I think my family is better than mine. Work is more important.” When Sigourney said these words, Sigourney’s husband and daughter stood quietly beside her, watching her smile sweetly.
