ST/LIFE/PAGE<LIF-011> | FRIDAY, OCTOBER 11, 2019 | THE STRAITS TIMES | happenings life D11 John Lui Film Correspondent recommends SO LONG, MY SON (PG) Picks 185 minutes/opens tomorrow Over its luxurious three-hour Film run-time, this story packs in threads about forced abortions, labour-camp stints for listening to decadent Western pop, attempted suicide and extramarital liaisons. If it all sounds like prime-time soap opera material, that is because it is. But celebrated Chinese film-maker Wang Xiaoshuai, master of social realist dramas like the prize-winning Beijing Bicycle (2001), Shanghai Dreams (2005) and 11 Flowers (2011) never lapses into mawkishness. The son of Yaojun (Wang Jingchun) and Liyun (Yong Mei) is killed in an accident. The pain is felt all the more keenly because he is their only child, the result of China’s population control policy. Over the next three decades, the after-effects of that death linger on in the lives of the couple and their friends and relatives.

  • Newsletter-Archiv: September 2016
    Newsletter-Archiv: September 2016 Filmnewsletter September Liebe Filmliebhaber, In der September-Edition geht es diesmal ein bisschen tiefer in die Materie – weniger Nachrichten, mehr Blick hinter die Kulissen. Zum einen ist da die Reihe des China Film Insider-Guides, die uns ab sofort durch das Labyrinth des chinesischen Filmemachens führt. Zum anderen geht es heute um Wang Xiaoshuai, da einer seiner letzten Filme in verschiedenen deutschen Städten im September gezeigt wird! Und die Blockbuster im spätsommerlichen Fernsehen? Siehe unten. Enjoy! Der neue China Film Insider-Guide Die amerikanische Webseite China Film Insider, ein lesenswertes Bindeglied zwischen Hollywood und der chinesischen Filmindustrie, hat Ende August eine 10-teilige Serie zu den wichtigsten Faktoren des Filmemachens in China gestartet. Schon die ersten beiden Beiträge, die nun jeden Freitag um eine neue Film-Kuriosität aus China erweitert werden, sind vielversprechend und überaus informativ, denn die Autoren arbeiten mit neuesten Fallbeispielen und aktuellen Zahlen. Obwohl es hier in erster Linie darum geht, die Eigenheiten, die der chinesische Markt für neue Regisseure, Produzenten, oder Drehbuchautoren birgt, herauszustellen, sind die Artikel auch für Laien hochspannend! Die ersten Artikel behandeln die Prozedur einer ausländischen Produktion in China: Wie man bereits ahnt, darf nichts sowohl im Fernsehen als auch auf der großen Leinwand ohne chinesische Strippenzieher produziert werden (Das beste Beispiel: die im letzten Newsletter erwähnte Ko-Produktion The Great Wall). Wie eine Art Checkliste geht es in der Serie weiter: Die „Dos & Don’ts“ bei der Zensur. Mit einschlägigen Beispielen wie Lust, Caution (⾊,戒) (2007) von Star-Regisseur Ang Lee oder Marvels Deadpool von letztem Jahr machen die Autoren deutlich, wie schnell Schlüsselszenen der Handlung oder einem ganzen Film (bekannterweise) der Garaus gemacht werden kann.

  • Un Film De WANG XIAOSHUAI
    AD VITAM présente OURS D’ARGENT MEILLEURE ACTRICE OURS D’ARGENT MEILLEUR ACTEUR SO LONG, MY SON un film deWANG XIAOSHUAI Chine • 2019 • Couleur • Durée : 3h05 • Formats : 1:85 / 5.1 DISTRIBUTION AD VITAM 71, rue de la Fontaine au Roi - 75011 Paris Tél. : 01 55 28 97 00 [email protected] RELATIONS PRESSE MATILDE INCERTI assistée de JULIEN CUVILLIER Tél. : 01 48 05 20 80 [email protected] SORTIE LE 3 JUILLET 2019 Matériel presse téléchargeable sur www.advitamdistribution.com SYNOPSIS Au début des années 1980, Liyun et Yaojun forment un couple heureux. Tandis que le régime vient de mettre en place la politique de l’enfant unique, un évènement tragique va bouleverser leur vie. Pendant 40 ans, alors qu’ils tentent de se reconstruire, leur destin va s’entrelacer avec celui de la Chine contemporaine. ENTRETIEN AVEC WANG XIAOSHUAI Quelle était votre intention principale quand vous avez commencé à travailler sur So Long My Son ? En 2011, j’écoutais les informations et on a annoncé que le gouvernement abandonnait la politique de planning familial de l’enfant unique et qu’il serait désormais possible de donner naissance à un second enfant. J’ai été positivement étonné parce que j’avais tenu pour acquis que la politique de l’enfant unique durerait encore longtemps et marquerait plusieurs générations. C’est ce changement qui a déclenché l’idée de So Long My Son. 3 So Long My Son mêle la grande fresque historique et politique avec un puissant mélodrame familial. Était-ce fondamental pour vous de montrer l’articulation entre la vie sociale et la vie intime ? C’est extrêmement important pour moi parce que les deux générations antérieures à celle montrée dans le film ont vécu dans une économie planifiée, dans un système fonctionnant avec une seule idéologie, un seul mode de vie auquel ils se pliaient et qui était caractérisé par le fait de ne pas mettre en avant l’individu par rapport au collectif.
