The director Lou Ye is a man of uncertainty and strength. When I watched his "Girl in Dangerous Love" in the early years, it really scared me enough. "A Night Intoxicated by Spring Breeze" is also a good work, but "Purple Butterfly" is... not so good.
In this play, Zhou Xun seemed to follow Jia Hongsheng. Sure enough, Zhou Xun is really a strong man. For her, acting is like breathing, so she can act well.
Jia Hongsheng, his acting is the same, really, since his comeback, it is the same, maybe he is using himself to act. That's fine, at least it's better than acting with "flying".
For this film, it can be said that if you haven't seen this film, you don't know Lou Ye, an absolute masterpiece.
At the same time, Jia Hongsheng and Zhou Xun can also be seen. I sometimes wonder, if there was no Jia Hongsheng back then, would Zhou Xun have a chance to become popular? For some people, just one chance is enough.
