Tony Leung - The perfect Chinese gentleman
This night I have watched a DVD movie that I had bought years ago but never have had the time to watch it: 2046with the lead actor Tony Leung in the main role and the its so called sequel of the movieIn The Mood For Lovewhich I also have on DVD and watched very often.
Tony really inspires me. He is the perfect Chinese gentleman. He uses such nice words, he looks perfectly good as a man and he just has got charme like I have never seen before. It is great to see how he makes all the Chinese women melt in the movies like butter in the desert. As I saw watched the movie, I wished sometimes I could be more like him, but there we are worlds between us apart. He looks much better and he has got all the charm. Even if I would try to be like him, I could not fake myself be phony. I will always be the one who I am, and I could never play such a charming role.
But I wonder why he is able to catch captivate all the women and at the end leaving them behind with their tears. It might be just his movie rolebut I can't lose the feeling he is like this also in reality. I do not think he is just playing this. He seems to be just like that in reality too.
The movie really inspired me. I like this Chinese 60's ambiance. The restaurants, the bars and all other places still have this kind of speciality, beauty and excellence. Not this modern trash look we have today where everything looks exactly the same. And then this contrast with this imaginary train in Tony's mind which looked a little like Star Wars to me. Especially the city where the train was driving through just looked like the planet Coruscant with all its buildings and skyscrapers. Although the LG sign which was used as some kind of secret subtle advertisement, was a little annoying but luckily not present in the other parts of the movie.
I was shocked in the restaurant scene as they ordered serpent for dinner!
But I'm going offtopic. The only negative point on Tony Leung that I was able to see in the movie, just like in the its prequel movie In The Mood For Love, was that he smokes. But even this he can do with such a charmantic charismatic style that I even forgive him of this. Tony got has an aura like I have never seenfrom any other man in the world before.
Are Chinese men the best lovemakers in the world? Maybe. Would Tony be their leader? Absolutely.
Do not get me wrong. I like the style of the movie but I couldn't be like Tony, because I just can be myself and cannot play a different character even if it just would be in front of a camera. I just like how Tony is doing it. I have never seen this from any actor before. He is a charmantic charismatic legend to me.
