What are the stories of three eras reflected in the movie Jasmine Blossom?

Jasmine Blossom is a story that reflects the love and marriage of a three-generation female family. It happened in 1930s, 1950s and 1980s, and showed the historical changes of China and the fate of women in the 20th century from a unique perspective.

Mo, a 18-year-old girl, was raised by a single mother who runs a photo studio and changed her life after meeting boss Meng. She became a star, and at the same time she was pregnant with boss Meng's child, which was in old Shanghai in the 1930s. Mo was abandoned soon after giving birth and lost the brilliance of a star. She named the illegitimate daughter Li and wanted to leave this cold home and marry Zou Jie, a cement factory worker.

Sally decided to have a baby, but she couldn't have a baby, so she had to take a girl from the welfare home and name her Hua. Sally is still extremely dissatisfied with her life and even suspects that her husband is having an affair with her adopted daughter. Her husband committed suicide by lying on the track, which was in the 1950s and 1960s. Li got schizophrenia and ran away from home. Hua found a boyfriend, Xiao Du. Shortly after getting married and pregnant, she found out that Xiao Du was having an affair. She resolutely filed for divorce and gave birth to a child. This was in the 1980s. ...

Cast:

Zhang Ziyi plays the triangle by himself.

"Mo", "Li" and "Hua" in youth. All three women had sweet moments in The Seeds of Love, and they all had a life process of tearing, gloomy and violent characters. There is also an explosive force from deep motherhood in Flowers. Hou Yong thinks that Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi are the ideal candidates to play them. Now, only Zhang Ziyi can realize these three roles. After more than half a month's filming, Hou Yong has confirmed that "Ziyi played well" is one of his live comments.

Lu Yi plays Zou Jie.

It's Sally's lover. When I was young, I was in high spirits, and then I got stuck in a ruined marriage until the end. Healthy, honest, simple-minded, handsome, the characteristics of Zou Jie when he was young were almost the impression Lu Yi left on himself. Middle-aged Zou Jie's despair, nervousness, confusion and discouragement are played by Lu Yi with sunny appearance, which adds a sense of helplessness to his role of "doing nothing in life".

Making tidbits: two scenes, two memories

Scene: Huilong photo studio is getting more and more coquettish.

This is the original location of the story: Mo's mother and husband died and lived in a photo studio, where Mo met Boss Meng and set foot on the star road; So, Mo was pregnant with Li, and later Li adopted Hua ... The scene was set in Chedun Film and Television Base on the outskirts of Shanghai. There were only a dozen shots in Jiang Wen, and most of the highlights were in the photo studio. 14 in the morning, he walked into the photo studio and hooked up with Mo for the first time. I saw Jiang Wenhua coming from a distance with light makeup, dark skin, a moustache, a light-colored long trench coat and a top hat in the 1930s, which reminded everyone of Tom Hanks in The Road to Destruction. Photographer Wang Yishu came forward and said, "This windbreaker really looks like Tom Hanks." Jiang Wen retorted with a smile: "Then you have to see through who!"

Zhang Ziyi plays Mo when he was young, dressed in a green wool gown, a long light-colored dress, white socks and two high braids, looking like a naive young man. When Jiang Wen walked into the studio to seduce Mo in Zhang Ziyi, all the reporters present were bent with laughter. Zhang Ziyi plays like a groupie, and Jiang Wen plays boss Meng like the people in the play. He wriggled into the photo studio. There are two kinds of English: "no" (rising tone), "no" (falling tone) and "of course". Afterwards, I teased Jiang: "I switched to acting in Chinese and you acted in English!" Hou Yong said happily: "Anyway, we have no chance to compete for the best foreign language film." Afterwards, I learned that Jiang Wen changed his English lines to show his character.

In that scene, boss Meng introduced himself to Mo as a film company and wanted to take some photos for her. Mo, played by Zhang Ziyi, is very excited and asks her mother for advice. Chen Chong said impatiently according to the script: "What's there to shoot!" Jiang Wen took a whole shot and suddenly muttered angrily, "What kind of mother is this?" It seems that I really wronged boss Meng.

This scene was shot many times in different seats. From morning to afternoon, the actors' performances became more and more vivid. Chen Chong's mother is only a supporting role in this play, so she is almost watching Zhang Ziyi and Jiang Wen opposite each other. After reading it, she couldn't help saying, "Why are you all so coquettish!" It's Jiang Wen's turn to take a close-up. Originally, the whole piece had to be taken from Jiang Wen outside the photo studio and walked into the photo studio. I shot it several times. Because the cooperation of various departments is always unsatisfactory, Hou Yong was afraid of bothering Jiang Wen and asked him to shoot the second half. Unexpectedly, Jiang Wen said, "I can't shoot half of it. Let's shoot the whole film."

Scene 2: Old Jinjiang Hotel-the biggest scene.

On June 5438+05, the crew moved from Chedun to Old Jinjiang Hotel to shoot the biggest scene in the film, that is, the happiest and most brilliant moment in Mo's life-the moment when she became a star and was loved by everyone. Zhang Ziyi's clothing is also the most beautiful in several scenes: green beaded backless cheongsam, and the exquisite craftsmanship of Shanghai master makes Zhang Ziyi's graceful figure more graceful. Wearing this cheongsam, Zhang Ziyi is a bit like performing his own star charm. At the moment when she made a wish in front of the birthday cake, her face was full of excitement, excitement and beautiful ideas for the future, and a group of beautiful extras beside her was Starlight Glimmer. Gai Lili plays an out-of-date actress. Although she is sexy and smart, she is out of date after all. Everyone's performances are in place, just because there are too many characters in this scene, there are dances, there are bands to cooperate, and the camera has to move in time, so it has been filmed many times, and the director is not satisfied.

This is the last day of Jiang Wen's film reservation. Because of the pressure of catching up with the play, Hou Yong kept silent. In the past two days, he lost the biggest temper in his life, yelling at the lights and photography ... Jiang Wen saw his anxiety. At ten o'clock in the evening, Hou Yong said to him, "Jiang Wen, you may not be able to shoot today's play." Jiang Wen immediately volunteered: "Nothing, I can wait, in case you are free again." The venue can only be used at eleven o'clock at night. There was a scene that Hou Yong wanted to shoot in more detail, but it was too late, so he advised Jiang Wenxian to go first. Jiang Wen is a little reluctant to go. He bought two bottles of wine and drank it himself. People in the crew took photos with him one by one. He signed his name happily, left his phone number to others, and was joking. He felt very happy. At this time, the reporter sat by and observed that Jiang Wen in private did not seem as terrible as the media wrote.

When watching the replay on the spot, the assistant director came up to Jiang Wen and said, "You old slut!" Jiang Wen hey hey smile, he played this scene is Meng boss secretly watching "Mo" dancing and moved his heart for her singing. Jiang Wen, smoking a cigar, poked his head out from behind the pillar and stared at Mo on the stage with fascinated eyes. At this moment, Zhang Ziyi is lip-synching to a mineral water bottle in order to participate in the play. Zhang Ziyi, who participated in the play, laughed at Jiang Wen's performance and deliberately made a gesture to seduce him. As a result, Jiang Wen didn't respond as he designed. Later, when asked, I realized that he was nearsighted. What little tricks did Zhang Ziyi do here? He didn't see anything!

Down and out, master Shuixi, he lost his sword. ...
