We have some really good news from the Cannes Film Festival. Be warned, huge update.
Yesterday, Dangerous Liaisons was screened at Directors Fortnight. Unfortunately, Zhang Ziyi wasn’t in Cannes because she’s still filming Wong Kar Wai’s “The Grandmasters”. Cecilia Cheung and director Hur Jin-ho were there to promote the film. The producer of the film revealed that the cut screened at Cannes was edited in a hurry.
Even if the film is not fully finished, it received a standing ovation at the end of the screening. Below, several comments on the film:
It’s very human, romantic and sincere. I was touched and I even cried when the leading actor was breaking up with the innocent woman

Zhang Ziyi & Cecilia Cheung steal the show in Dangerous Liaisons. Zhang breaks your heart. Cecilia makes you root against her.
@filmfest
Dangerous Liaisons was exquisite, and brought in something new to familiar story. Cecilia Cheung is absolutely brilliant in it #cannes2012

The 5 minutes screened yesterday were focused on Ziyi’s character. Filmed in a snowy place, we can see Ziyi as a child looking at her father while he’s practising his martial art. At the same time, we see Ziyi training herself in the falling snow. The journalists who saw it were very impressed by the beauty of this cinematography. A Chinese journalist filmed the footage and posted it on Youku but it was quickly removed, although a copy was saved on Baidu. If you are curious. you can watch it here but be warned the quality is not good.
Ziyi’s new movie, Dangerous Liaisons, will be screened at Directors’ Fortnight on May 24th and May 25th. A new poster has been released for the occasion. According to some rumours, Jang Dong-gun and Zhang Ziyi won’t be able to come to Cannes this year. Ziyi is still busy filming The Grandmasters. Let’s hope we’ll know more in the coming days…
Also, Ziyi recently signed with the Chinese brandGuizhou Braun to promote collagen products in China.
We have some more information about Dangerous Liaisons today…
The original novel indeed was banned. However, the novel doesn’t just cover matters concerning a love. It has more deep meanings. We interpret the novel’s humanism from a new angle. It will be the most ‘clean’ adaptation of the novel ever.
Dangerous Liaisons will be released on September 27th in China.
Thanks to Sina we can enjoy three new gorgeous posters of the film featuring Zhang Ziyi as Du Fenyu, Jiang Dong-Gun as Xie Yifan and Cecilia Cheung as Mo Jieyu.
