Gong Li in a Man's Blog
Jul 11, 2007 09:07:16
June 26:  The man who wrote briefly on his blog about meeting Gong Li at the Cannes Film Festival has written more about the encounter. On May 18, he was waiting for a movie to start late at night when he happened to look into a shop window and see Gong Li. He entered the shop and observed her and friends looking at souvenir items. Gong Li was wearing black shorts, a white T-shirt and very little make-up. He feels that she could easily pass for someone between 25 to 30, and she doesn't look like someone in her 40s at all.
He had seen Gong Li twice before, but felt that at this year's Cannes festival she was even more enchanting. He noted her kind smile, hearty laughter, and eyes glowing with intelligence when speaking about Chinese movies. The French sales girl noticed him getting an autograph from Gong Li on a postcard and asked him who she is. He quietly told her that Gong Li is the star of two Cannes award-winning films, "Farewell, My Concubine" and "To Live". The sales girl commented that Gong Li is "so beautiful and charming", remarks that Gong Li overheard. He noted that she seemed embarrassed at the praise. He continued speaking with Gong Li while her friends were shopping. At the end of their conversation, Gong Li very warmly stretched out her hand and said goodbye. He concluded that evening was very special because Gong Li was so charming and friendly.
