(新加坡13日訊)新加坡歷史大片《1965》即將開拍,主要演員傳包括梁朝偉、張曼玉,好萊塢實力派女星Julianne Moore也會助陣。

  《1965》是新加坡家樂電影與香港名導陳可辛的“我們製作”聯合製作的新加坡政治片。故事以李光耀為爭取新加坡獨立為背景,把新加坡在1965年經歷90天動蕩不安、種族紛爭、政權之爭等歷史搬上大銀幕。

  陳可辛李天仁操刀

  影片的製作費高達500萬美元(約1500萬令吉),由香港名導陳可辛及《笑着回家》的新加坡導演李天仁操刀。來自亞洲的製片、編劇、調研等將組成製作團隊。影片預計今年第4季開拍,並在新馬兩地取景,計劃趕在明年國慶前上映。

  政治主題的片種在新加坡影史上罕見,故事主人翁李光耀又享有舉足輕重的地位,因此角色由哪些重量級演員扮演引起廣大關注。圈內盛傳,影帝影后級的梁朝偉與張曼玉將繼2000年的《花樣年華》後,再度攜手合作,演出《1965》裡的政治角色。新加坡藝人戚玉武也將有份參與。

  此外,多次獲提名奧斯卡金像奬的好萊塢女演員Julianne Moore也在演出名單中。無獨有偶,張曼玉與Julianne Moore分別在1993年和2003年獲得柏林國際電影節的“銀熊奬”。

  如無變數,影帝影后及好萊塢演員將齊聚獅城拍攝,衆實力派演員同片飆戲,加上這是新加坡片首次有好萊塢演員參與,料將改寫新加坡電影史。

  捕捉國慶慶典畫面

  有關大牌級的演員名單,家樂電影董事經理雲暉翔聞梁朝偉與張曼玉的名字時,對消息的傳開感到意外。

  張曼玉曾在5月底到新加坡為環球影城舉行開幕禮,之後就傳出她將演出《1965》,電影公司當時與她密會洽談 雲暉翔受詢時只說,正在籌劃拍攝這部電影。他透露,《1965》將有國慶慶典的情節,因此正與相關人士協商,希望能在今年的慶典綵排或8月9日慶典當天實地拍攝,以為影片添加真實感。

  新加坡製作放眼國際市場

  國際大牌參演新加坡製作《1965》,表商City Chain有意投入超過100萬(約250萬令吉)巨額贊助。表商發言人透露,對強大的演員陣容所吸引,所以與家樂電影在商談中,現階段等電影公司確定卡士名單。發言人說:“這部影片是展望國際市場的新加坡製作,以全世界觀衆為目標。”,一語再度暗示國際知名演員的參與。

  他也說:“李光耀是新加坡的重要政治人物,名字無人不曉,所以如果與電影公司談成,這將是我們公司區域性的合作。”

Lets wait and see how they tell the story in the movie.
 
who want to know a story of a small dot? tony is in for a small viewership... running out of scripts?
 
It is only worth watching if LKY is portrayed as the villain. If not, there are already tons of material where he is portrayed as the hero or saviour of SG. :D
 
hmmm...lets see..what are the juicy things to be included or it will be a straight copy and paste from history textbooks?

And, it will be standard viewing material for all kids in future - from Primary one to secondary 4?

And whats next after a movie about LKY? A musical?
 
A step down in Tony Leung's career. What was he thinking????
 
Maybe he thought he was going to be in another internal affairs type movie.
 
Imagine if they get a local trash like Gurmit Singh to play Old Fart
 
The thing is if the script is surely flattering to LKY cos Singapore company involved. So what's the pt? We need factual depiction.
 
who will play the role of kgc? oh gawd, don't tell me she's gonna be cecilia. the best scenes will involve lky banging kgc in moments of passion.
 
I am not too bothered by a lop-sided script.

Who knows? 50 years down the road, we may have a movie entitled "2011"?

With Tony and Maggie leading the cast, it could be In The Mood For Love Part II in the making! :D

According to a Chinese news report, Tony Leung is set to play the young Lee Kuan Yew in an upcoming movie called '1965'. Maggie Cheung and Hollywood actress Julianne Moore are also slated to star in the movie, to be helmed by Hong Kong director, Peter Chan.

'1965' is said to be a collaboration between Singapore's Jiale Movies and Hong Kong film director and producer Peter Chan.

Lee Kuan Yew's fight for Singapore's independence in 1965 forms the background of the movie, amid events such as the 90 days of turmoil, ethnic strife and political struggle.

Filming is reportedly set to start in the fourth quarter of this year, and will apparently take place in Singapore and Malaysia.
 
Can't wait for the release..hope it will be something like the movie..
