Because although Brigitte Lin and Cecilia Cheung are in different eras, they have both starred in "The Legend of Shushan". Among them, Brigitte Lin is older than Cecilia Cheung and starred in this movie earlier, while Cecilia Cheung was in any time in the years. He also played the same role that Lin Qingxia once played. The two are both human and divine. It was so confusing that they thought they were played by one person. Both of them are outstanding and excellent in terms of appearance and acting skills.
I like Brigitte Lin very much. I feel that her facial features are simply too perfect. She is both delicate and heroic. She has thick eyebrows and big eyes, but she is also very beautiful and enchanting. She has starred in many films. More than 30 years ago, "The Legend of Shushan" starring a Hong Kong and Taiwanese actor is still amazing. In it, Brigitte Lin plays the role of the owner of Yaochi Fairy Castle, a great beauty with a clear distinction between love and hate. It is precisely because of this role that Brigitte Lin has made many people like her even more.
There are many famous actors who have appeared in this movie, such as the well-known actors Zheng Shaoqiu, Yuen Biao, Liu Songyan, Sammo Hung, etc., who all gave excellent performances. After the 21st century, Tsui Hark, a great director from Hong Kong, put this never-tiring movie on the screen again. This time the heroine was the familiar Cecilia Cheung. At that time, Cecilia Cheung's face was almost wet with tears. Lively and young, as pure and beautiful as a lily.
And in this new "The Legend of Shushan", Tsui Hark almost borrowed many of the actions and lines of the character played by Brigitte Lin before, and Cecilia Cheung acted very well. Some people even mistakenly thought that Brigitte Lin was coming again. The one who starred, actually, was not played by the young Cecilia Cheung.
In the minds of the directors, the heroine in "The Legend of Shushan" is the most beautiful and charming, and she has the most unique charm. They need a very beautiful but very distinctive actress to play her. Very early on, Brigitte Lin's nomination was highly anticipated, and Cecilia Cheung's selection this time is not unreasonable due to her natural beauty and solid acting skills.
People appreciate that these two actors have truly demonstrated the true charm of the heroine in "The Legend of Shushan". Whether it is Brigitte Lin's version or Cecilia Cheung's version, they are both classics and cannot be copied. . That's why it is said that Brigitte Lin and Cecilia Cheung starred in the same "Shushan Biography", and the beauties of the two eras completed the succession.
