As soon as I finished reading the novel, I watched a movie adapted from it. The memory is clear, and the difference and the pros and cons are instant. The novel has a strong story and is suitable for adaptation. Canada and China co-produced in 2006, shooting in Shanghai and Guangxi. The chief artist is also the Chinese film artist Tu Juhua, so the visual representation of the film’s environment, rooms, and costumes are relatively in place and accurate; foreign directors and actors are...

I think you are right, we are too stupid to find the qualities that the other party lacks. Forgiveness and love are far more beautiful than complaining and hating. I have loved you for a long time and will never forget. Take off your veil, take off my veil, let me see...

At that time, Yan Yan's girl broke into his eyes, and a beautiful movie fan was drunk for a lifetime. The small town of eastern mountains and rivers buried everything about him, and only asking for forgiveness was his last word. The combination of Chinese and Western elements creates a wonderful flavor. Under the heavenly landscape, there is a purgatory of ignorance, backwardness and disease. The two staggered in and fell in love again in an unfamiliar environment, as beautiful as the scenery....

Based on Maugham's novel, a romance film co-produced by China and the United States. The scene in the Republic of China in the 1920s was very real, and the crew really took care! Nuomi and Norton's acting skills are still excellent (both are also producers). Imperfection and parting are always essential elements of great love. The misty haze of the southwest and the prejudice of a foreign country finally failed to prevent the veil from being lifted. When love and responsibility become one,...

The bereaved, the lackeys of capitalism
Only the landscape is beautiful.
Our own landscape. So innocently beautiful.
I'm not a Norton fan, nor a Watts fan.
This isn't Norton's best movie. As for Watts, it always felt like she liked to have her front teeth exposed.
Head Yu, played by Huang Qiusheng, said: "It is best for the Chinese to... -

"The Veil" - A Difficult Self-Quest
In early twentieth-century China, warlords, wars, disease and misery always seemed to go hand in hand.
"The Veil" was slowly unveiled against this background.
Even though I knew it wouldn't be Maugham's veil anymore, I sat down and read it quietly, and then wrote these words to pay tribute to old...

[Walter and Kitty are out at the Chinese Opera with Charlie and Dorothy Townsend]
Charlie Townsend: Are you enjoying it?
Kitty Fane: I've never seen anything like it.
Charlie Townsend: Every gesture has a meaning. See how she covers her face with the cloth? She is mourning her misfortune.
Kitty Fane: What happened to her?
Charlie Townsend: She was sold into slavery. Condemned to a life of drudgery and despair in a strange land far from home. See the chains? They represent the heavy bondage of her poor, trapped soul from which there is no escape, and so she weeps. She weeps for the lively, vivacious girl she once was, the lonely woman she has become... and most of all... she weeps for the love she'll never feel, for the love she'll never give.
Kitty Fane: Is that really what she's saying?
Charlie Townsend: Actually I haven't a clue what she's on about. I don't speak Chinese.

[Waddington walks in to the Fanes' new house]
Waddington: You must be the doctor's wife. I've just met your husband and invited myself to dinner. I've kept the Watsons' cook for you - she's not bad. She'll have to do for your amah as well. We're a little short-handed here.
[Remembering he hasn't introduced himself yet]
Waddington: Sorry, my name is Waddington.
