A certain female star publicized that she had raised funds to shoot "Pan Yuliang", and she was proud of it, but she didn't forget to show how difficult it was for her.Her embarrassment is that Pan Yuliang's "life experience and beauty and ugliness are very controversial".Of course, the life experience is nothing more than that, it is confusing and confusing, but it adds to the legend. The point is that Pan Yuliang in history is not only not beautiful, but also ugly.Played by Gong Li and Li Jiaxin, although it is already appalling, even if it is played by her who is slightly beautiful, it seems to be a great disrespect to historical facts.

What exactly does Pan Yuliang look like?Zhou Xiaoyan, a soprano singer who once had a relationship with Pan Yuliang, pointed out that the real Pan Yuliang has a "look nose, thick lips" and "really ugly. She walks on the Champs Elysees. It’s because he doesn’t look very good.” But regardless of whether Pan Yuliang is beautiful or ugly, the one who finally appears on the screen is definitely a beauty.This is not only a must for movies as a commodity, but also a must for a patriarchal society.When male celebrities are included in biopics, they don’t need to be more beautiful. Whether it’s General Patton, Capote, Ray Charles, Verlaine, Gandhi or Wilde, as long as there are photos available, their appearance on the screen seems to be the top priority .So Philip Seymour Hoffman put on big black-rimmed glasses and carefully brushed his hair back, reviving Capote's obscenity; so Ben Kingsley starved himself to play Mahatma Gandhi.In the behind-the-scenes footage of various biopics, all the actors are talking about how they pretend to be ugly, how they overeat in order to reproduce the protagonist's belly, and even haven't gone to the gym for three months.However, Russell Crowe played Nash and Zhang Zhen played Wu Qingyuan, which aroused criticism.Film critics thought that Russell Crowe's pectoral muscles and biceps under a tight white T-shirt were too developed, and that Zhang Zhen was too handsome. The subtext behind it was that men don't need beauty.Beauty is to please, and it is a betrayal of gender power. Successful men and male celebrities don't need beauty. No matter they are beautiful or ugly, they should be accepted naturally.

Female celebrities appear in biopics, but they must be beautiful.Whether you are Edith Piaf, Jane Austen, Sylvia Plath, or the Empress Dowager Cixi, a female revolutionary, Pan Yuliang, or Wuyan, once you appear on the screen, you will be treated first and foremost. Beauties take the lead, and women have always shouldered the great responsibility of illuminating the screen.Even if Nicole Kidman put on a prosthetic nose to play Virginia Woolf in "The Hours," or Charlize Theron disfigured her entire body to play Vornos in "The Devil," there was a psychological backing— —They were originally beauties.Also, although it is not a real-life biography, the image of Jane Eyre is so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it is tantamount to a biography.But Jane in the original novel is an ugly woman, while all the previous Jane Eyres in the movie are dignified and generous beauties.When the 1996 version of the TV series really chose the plain-looking Gainsbourg as Jane Eyre, it aroused public outrage. People believed that Gainsbourg was the ugliest of all Jane Eyres.Women must be beautiful in movies.The film presents a sexual exploitation that takes the form of beauty.

So we have a kind of trust in the women in the image: they must, and must be beautiful.Therefore, female celebrities are only responsible for being famous, being sloppy, unkempt in the studio, and foaming at the mouth in the laboratory for refining radium, and their own biopics will be responsible for making you look beautiful.
