went to the movie theater and found a movie with the Chinese name "Funny Man and Woman". He hadn't seen any publicity before, and had no idea what it was. But I saw the big beauty Scarlet Johansson on the poster, so I bought the ticket without any hesitation. The show starts at 10:50. There are not many people in the cinema. We occupy the best position. I don't know what kind of film we will see.
At the beginning of the movie, a woman turned her back to the camera, and a group of women faced the camera. The woman sitting alone was urged to pay by the waiter. The women were all talking about the woman sitting alone. In less than two minutes, the identity of the woman sitting alone was clearly explained. She is a woman who lives by men, is the mistress of all kinds of men, and has a romantic and luxurious life. In these two minutes, the rhythm was lively, the words were smooth and witty, and a bit of Wilde's temperament.
Two minutes later, we also learned that all the men that this woman relied on had abandoned her and the account was emptied. She finally showed her face, it turned out to be Helen Hunt, another actress I like. At this time, I started to feel proud, this film is worth it.
When the film reached 15 minutes, I was 100% sure that this was a film adapted from "Mrs. Wen's Fan". Wilde’s things were memorized. Those few lines of dialogue are no longer suspicious. Apart from Wilde, who else can be so witty and unpretentious?
I won’t talk about the story. I suggest you read the original version of "Mrs. Wen’s Fan."
Looking at it, my friend and I cried. Men and women, plans and accidents, meanness and tolerance, encounters and misses, persistence and abandonment, all looked lovely under Wilde's arrangement. Wilde, although it seems a little conceited, some cynical, some disrespectful of women, some self-deprecating... these are all appearances, he also has a particularly crisp heart...
The director this time is also very good, the filming is not fancy, very smooth. The performances of several actors are also remarkable, especially Helen Hunt and Stephen Campbell Moore, who played Lord Darlington. I have never seen the latter’s performance before. I googled it and I was an English actor who participated in many roles. Three stage plays and three movies. The acting is very good, although the look is not particularly eye-catching, but the more you look at it, the more you like it. I believe that if it is the original English version, it must have a strong London accent. That kind of energy is especially good.
Last time I went to pere la-chaise cemetery, there were two people who visited: Jim Morrison and Wilde. They are all people who cannot be copied, who have lived in our hearts for a long time.
