An array of films hitting silver screens

THE golden time of cinema for the year is about to begin with new productions that cover a wide range of genres.

This month, audiences will be presented with the historical film “A Murder Beside Yanhe River,” Jiang Wen’s drama film “Gone With the Bullets” and Lou Ye’s sentimental movie “Blind Massage,” which is about the lives and dreams of blind people.

Among all the movies, the comedy romance “Tender Woman” by talented director Edmond Pang is expected to attract a large number of white-collar women.

The film starring Zhou Xun and Huang Xiaoming centers on the life and love stories of women living a fast-paced urban life. It started national release on November 28.

Zhou, who has recently been praised for her acting in the TV series “Red Sorghum,” plays a cowgirl looking for her Mr Right. She learns to be a tender, gentle woman in life, which brings about dramatic and funny stories.

Some of the film scenes are inspired by popular matchmaking shows. Actor Huang, who plays a homeboy, says the film provides an insight into young people’s opinions about love and life.

“Even men should learn to be tender on some specific occasions,” Huang says with a grin. “A lot of men get hurt and act all tough. I don’t think it is so wise. Sometimes what they can simply do is to act coquettishly.”
