The "Lanxin Grand Theatre" was announced. How about the acting skills of Gong Li and Mark Chao?
First, let's talk about Gong Li. Gong Li is the ceiling of China film circle. Except Maggie Cheung and Chen Chong, no China actress can compete with Gong Li. Gong Li is filming less and less now. This "Lanxin Grand Theatre" was actually shot by Gong Li the year before last. At that time, Gong Li was in good condition, and it was not very abrupt to play a role smaller than himself.
Gong Li has been sticking to the original lines for many years, and Lanxin Grand Theatre is no exception. Gong Li's own lines are very good, and the timbre itself is slightly hoarse. Coupled with her angry voice, it sounds very charming, and Gong Li herself is an actor with a sense of story, so she can easily grasp the artistic sense and the fluency of the story in the film.
Followed by Mark Chao, Mark Chao's acting skills are not outstanding in the Chinese film industry, but Mark Chao himself is also a powerful actor, and Mark Chao is actually the darling of many directors of literary films and drama films, because Mark Chao himself is also an actor with a sense of story. Although he is not particularly handsome, he can control many rich shapes and has better plasticity than most actors.
Finally, Mark Chao and Gong Li actually often play opposite each other, and Mark Chao can basically understand Gong Li's performance. And two actors who are 20 years apart don't feel disobedient when they play lovers in the movie. The only drawback is that Mark Chao's lines are a little stale, obviously not in the same class as Gong Li's lines.
