Personally, I feel that although Chow Yun-fat has acted in many classic works, I still like "Shanghai" starring Chow Yun-fat the most. To say that Chow Yun-fat's most classic work is definitely "Shanghai", it can be called the first drama in Chinese history. It was this TV series that made people across the country remember Chow Yun-fat. Many people around me may not speak Cantonese, but they can basically hum a few sentences: "Lang Run~Lang Liu~The river will never end for thousands of miles..." This shows the great influence of this "Shanghai Bund".
"A Better Tomorrow": After Chow Yun-fat won the double Best Actor award, his acting career unexpectedly reached a low point. Every movie he made would cost him one, and the box office results were also poor. It was also called "box office poison" by investors. In 1986, John Woo filmed the movie "A Better Tomorrow" with the support of Tsui Hark. The crew's funds were very limited. At that time, in order to save costs, John Woo Invited has-been hit star Ti Lung and box-office poison Chow Yun-fat *** to also serve as the leading actor in this movie. But after the movie was released, it was well received by the audience. The characters played by Ti Lung and Chow Yun-fat have also become classic characters on the Hong Kong screen. In the 1986 Hong Kong box office rankings, "A Better Tomorrow" deservedly ranked first. Ti Lung and Chow Yun-fat also won the Golden Horse Best Actor and the Golden Image Best Actor respectively with one movie. Both of them also gained fame and fortune.
"Dragon and Tiger": In 1987, Chow Yun-fat's career was the most prosperous. In this year, Chow Yun-fat filmed the movies "Autumn Fairy Tale", "Prison", "Dragon and Tiger" "The Storm", these three works, allowed Chow Yun-fat to be nominated for the role of Best Actor, and finally won the 7th Golden Image Best Actor with "The Storm". In the 6th, Chow Yun-fat also won This way, Chow Yun-fat became the first consecutive Best Actor winner in the history of the Academy Awards.
The subsequent "God of Gamblers" series filmed by Chow Yun-fat was loved by the audience. In 1995, Chow Yun-fat left the Hong Kong Forum and began to move towards the Hollywood screen. In recent years, Chow Yun-fat has still been active on the screen. The recently released "Wu Shuang" also won unanimous praise from the audience and the box office was also very good. Although Chow Yun-fat has acted in many classics, I still like his favorite "Shanghai".
