After shooting Ang Lee's Lust, Caution, Tang Wei was banned.
As far as the spirit of devotion to art is concerned, it is a bit tragic when I think about it now.
That year, Tang Wei was 28 years old.
Although it is said that the age of 28 is not a small age for a woman, at that time, the pressure from all aspects was not something that ordinary people could bear.
In fact, in 2007, this film made her famous in the Chinese film circle at home and abroad, and also attracted the attention of the Western film and television industry.
However, Tang Wei and the actor Tony Leung felt a lot of pressure because of the passionate scenes of several nude scenes in the film.
At that time, even the actor's born girlfriend, Tony Leung Chiu Wai's cohabitation Carina Lau blushed when she saw it, and left the theater ahead of schedule, unable to watch it any longer.
You can imagine the fledgling actress Tang Wei, how much pressure she is under! ? The reason for
is the conservative attitude in traditional culture, which has been controversial.
Of course, in 2007, "Lust, Caution" won the "Golden Lion Award" for the best film at the Venice International Film Festival.
On this level, Tang Wei really sacrificed a lot for art.
In fact, Ang Lee said publicly after learning that Tang Wei was banned: "I will do everything I can to support her."
After the ban, on May 20, 2008, when Tang Wei attended a public event for the first time, he said: "My heart is with those suffering victims. As for the ban, I don't know the situation, but as an actor, The stage is the life of an actor, and I look forward to new performance opportunities." These words are enough to show that she has the courage and spirit to sacrifice for art.
Tang Wei, October 7, 1979,Born in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. In 2000, he was admitted to the Department of Directing of the Central Academy of Drama for an undergraduate degree.

Wang Jiazhi in Lust and Caution, why is Tang Wei starring?
"Lust and Caution" describes Wang Jiazhi as a girl who is not born with a seductive personality. In that war-torn era, she was an ordinary schoolgirl with little courage.
When emotions come, there is seductiveness, and emotions, including desires, flow out naturally.
It is said that Ang Lee is looking for such an actress. That is, her beauty is very popular, just a familiar face in the crowd, but it has a kind of awe-inspiring gorgeousness.
When inspired, she is very different. Even enchanting and beautiful.
Obviously Wang Jiazhi belongs to the kind of woman who is not a stunner. Shu Qi , absolutely can't act. As a result, Ang Lee must find a new person. Because an actress with too much star flavor can't play the ordinary girl Wang Jiazhi.
Let's recall the plot of the film...
In the scene with the male lead, Wang Jiazhi in the film is completely emotional. That kind of glamour, that kind of provocation, that kind of investment, many actresses can't come.
This is a specific occasion and a specific time.
How to make this play look real, Ang Lee has been thinking about finding an actress who can play both the first half and the second half.
is the kind of state that is fully capable of entering the character.
As far as novels are concerned, decadence is the consistent character of the heroine in Eileen Chang's novels. Such as Wei Long in "The First Incense".
It should be said that many beautiful women can perform well in the first half of the play, but not necessarily in the latter part. Ang Lee thought so.
From the perspective of character design, Wang Jiazhi in the second half needs to have at this moment, lingering with the male protagonist Mr. Yi,The natural and heartfelt physical expression of tactful affection. However, she knew very well in her heart that she should have a sense of awe. So, you can't sink yourself. This is the role of Wang Jiazhi in Li Anxin.
Zhang Ziyi has a kind of awe.
Her awe-inspiring, is like a big woman. Li An had thought about her, but felt that it was not suitable. He said, "I don't think Zhang Ziyi is like a girl who can have such a story."
According to the request, this actress must be beautiful; second, she must be willing to take off!
At that time, Ang Lee had already won the Oscar for Best Director. For any actor is a chance to become famous, the temptation is very great.
There are so many actresses auditioning. When Tang Wei was selected, many actresses who were not selected deliberately said that they were not selected because they were unwilling to leave.
typically can't eat grapes, saying that the grapes are sour.
As director Ang Lee, he definitely has a pair of discerning eyes, so he has been looking for that pearl.
So, in the audition, he found in the ordinary Tang Wei the gorgeous attributes that can represent the character Wang Jiazhi to the greatest extent.
She is an ordinary woman among thousands of women, and the nourishment of "eroticism" makes her confused.
Some people say that the movie "Lust, Caution" distorted the spirit of Eileen Chang's original work.
However, in any case, one thing is very consistent. That is, Wang Jiazhi, played by Tang Wei, has a bit of bitterness in his eyes, which is in line with Eileen Chang's style.
Tang Wei plays Wang Jiazhi wearing a cheongsam, with flowing eyes, that kind of charm, there is such a taste.
It is said that at that time, there were many actresses who were recommended to Ang Lee, or that Ang Lee considered playing Wang Jiazhi. Among them, the most representative actors were: Zhang Ziyi, Liu Yifei, Shu Qi, Xu Xiyuan (big S) , and Zhu Zhiying, who played Lai Xiujin's in Lust and Caution.
A reporter asked Ang Lee how he decided to play Tang Wei as Wang Jiazhi. He said, "As soon as I saw him, I thought this story would happen to her. If there was someone named "Wang Jiazhi", she would look like her."
Zhang Ziyi after watching the film "Lust, Caution" , said in Weibo: "After watching the movie for three days, I can't forget the emotional world of Wang Jiazhi and Mr. Yi. It's been a long time, such a romantic, shocking and thrilling love story. The gentle and elegant Ang Lee is really a fire. There is no room for you to take a breath...Movies are never perfect, "Lust, Caution" is almost perfect!"
When it comes to movie bans, there were earlier in the film and television industry, but it was just a means of banning different. For example, the director of "Apple" Li Yu and the producer, Jiang Wen, the director of " Devils Are Coming", and Zhang Yuan, the director of "East Palace West Palace", are banned.
However, this time, the actor Tang Wei was directly warned against the ban. The purpose may be to self-censor the actors when they take on the film in the future, and not to casually appear in the performance and prohibited films.
