Today Nicholas Tse and Da S officially started filming their scenes as lovers. Even though the two only have 20 minutes worth of scenes in the movie but their performance seems to subvert their past experiences. Da S is no longer playing the innocent girl, she is a cool girl who wears hot clothing and rides a motorbike; Nicholas Tse doesn't play the handsome type anymore, instead he plays a yes man, a sloppy air conditioner repair boy. Two people from different worlds causing sparks with one another, it is one of the six parts of the movie "Love in the Whole City".
Da S introduced: "In the movie I'm very cool and hearty, Nicholas Tse is less courageous, a yes man, that's why in the movie I ride a motorbike and he rides a moped."
According to Da S, their love happened very suddenly, yet the ending is very moving. They don't like the look of one another as they both ride on bikes on the street, so they start racing. After a few meetings later, the two step onto the path of lovers. "I'm a girl with a strange background, I don't have a job, I go around the place helping terminally ill people fulfil their dreams."
Nicholas Tse's bike is a moped, how can he possibly catch Da S's motorbike at the beginning, so he modified his Dolphin. Nicholas Tse laughed: "On the surface it looks like I'm chasing her bike, but actually I'm chasing her."
Da S and Cecilia Cheung are good friends in the circle, it's her first time playing lovers with Nicholas Tse, will there be any awkwardness between the two? Da S smiled saying they know each other well, it's actually easier to bring up an understanding. What was surprising to her was, for someone who always plays the cool and handsome guy in movies, Nicholas Tse can act so well as a weak cowardly man.
"Yesterday we were screen testing, he was very persuasive with his acting, I think when the audience sees it they will definitely say he acted very realistically. He's a bit of a fool, he's got a stooped back and he wears shorts wherever he goes, he doesn't even wear shoes properly. Yesterday we were screen testing, I was very surprised seeing his face, I discovered his eyes were different, his movements and speaking tone were also different."
Nicholas Tse says he's waiting for such a role for a long time, he said: "This is a hard to come by chance, this time I can really let go and act a smaller role, the acting is also different from before. In the past when I played Tiger Wong, I had that look in my eyes like I was going to kill someone in one glance, I buffed up my chest in moments and was cool. But this time, my eyes are weak, you can see the low self esteem. Of course the look helped a lot as well, in the movie I wear a pair of very short and tight shorts, a look of someone who has really let himself go, my hair is also very messy."
In the end will the two be together, Nicholas Tse revealed, the two love each other, yet they cannot be together because Da S is ill. But he stressed that this is not a tragedy, there are a mix of joy and sadness.
