Chinese actress Gao Yuanyuan wants a more versatile screen image instead of
always being cast in stereotypical roles as an innocent and well-behaved young
woman.
And she seems to be getting her wish with her latest role in the World War
Two film "Nanking! Nanking!Ħħin which she plays a middle school teacher.
"The acting emphasizes the inner struggle of the role," a Beijing Times
report on Sunday quoted Gao as saying. "I can feel I am growing mature with the
role."
Directed by award-winning "Kekexili" director Lu Chuan, "Nanking! Nanking!"
is a tribute to the 70th anniversary of the 1937 Nanjing Massacre. It is
expected to hit cinemas later this year.
Gao made her remarks while she was attending a promotional event for a
fashion brand in Beijing.
