Movie Premiere

On April 27, the film "Pro love" premiered in Shanghai, with director Li xinman and Star Yu Nan appearing. Talking about the cooperation with the famous crosstalk actor Yu Qian, Yu Nan said with a smile that teacher Yu was not as glib as he thought. Compared with peach sister, Li xinman is confident that the film has more depth.

Director: more depth than sister peach

Pro love is a long story by director Li xinman. It describes a mother daughter relationship without blood relationship from a female perspective. It reflects the indifference and warmth of human nature through the family emotional changes of a professional woman. Li xinman said, "I don't need to earn the audience's tears. Many clips in the film only need to add a few close ups. I believe everyone will cry, but it's just that it's too low-level. I show my emotions in a controlled way and pursue the tension and appeal outside the play. " Yu Liwei, the film's photographer, was invited to join the film. When asked that "the style of the film poster is similar to that of peach sister", Li xinman said frankly that "Pro love" is more profound than "peach sister." it's totally different from "peach sister" and the plot is more complicated, so you can watch "peach sister" if you want to cry and "Pro love" if you want to think deeply. " He just won the best film award in Osaka Film Festival.

Yu Nan: Yu Qian is not so glib

after the two commercial blockbusters of "killing the living" and "death squads 2", Yu Nan returned to the line of literature and art film again, challenging the role of cold-blooded strong woman. In the film, she talks about her family relationship with two "mothers" and tells the audience a complicated blood and emotional relationship with many excellent inner scenes. Yu Nan said, "it's a new attempt to play a strong woman in the workplace. However, the emotional play with my mother and son has given me a different understanding of mother daughter relationship." Yu Nan's relationship with the two "mothers" who are not related by blood is constantly evolving and sublimating in contradictions and conflicts, and she points out that this is actually a major feature of the role. "She loses a mother and accepts a complete stranger to become her own mother. This process is very detailed, so when filming, almost every scene is very competitive, competing with herself." In the film, Yu Qian, a famous crosstalk actor, guest stars as a lawyer. Yu Nan was full of praise for his teacher. "This time, Mr. Yu not only acted as a strict lawyer in the film, but also was not so glib in real life as he had imagined. He gave everyone the feeling that he was a down-to-earth elder brother."
