The project “Curtain of Pearls” starring Zhao Lusi and Liu Yuning has aired its first four episodes on the Youku platform. After only a few hours of airing, the film has achieved positive results, with high interest, discussion, and attracting many advertisements.
In particular, this is a rare occasion when Trieu Lo Tu is praised for her acting. The Thanh Do star surprised many people when she expressed the bitterness of fate, developed good psychological developments, and aroused the audience's sympathy.
The underwater scenes shot by Trieu Lo Tu are causing a stir on many social media platforms. The “little flower 95” herself performed the diving scenes, her movements were graceful and gentle, her face was beautiful but no less tragic.
Besides Trieu Lo Tu, the content of “Rem ngoc chau sa” is also highly appreciated. The film brings a feeling of urgency and tension from the first minutes, taking viewers from one surprise to another.
However, “The Pearl Curtain” was also pointed out for many absurdities. First, it was about the female lead Doan Ngo, played by Trieu Lo Tu, a girl who dives into the sea every day to look for pearls but is portrayed with a sparkling appearance and graceful dancing ability. The above details were judged to be unrealistic with Doan Ngo’s situation.
Next is the character playing Bat Nuong, the female lead's biological mother. The way the film is built so that the two know each other's background is quite forced and confusing. In particular, the scene where Bat Nuong sacrifices herself to save Doan Ngo is intentionally made heavy and unnecessarily tragic.
However, Sohu also commented that the TV series will have many differences from reality, even illogical. There are some small minus points, but "Rem ngoc chau sa" is still very attractive with a new setting, good content, and beautiful costumes.
In particular, the life of the female lead Doan Ngo is full of ups and downs, experiencing many difficulties, facing life and death. The type of character who is willing to rise up despite facing the crushing blows of life like Doan Ngo easily attracts the attention and love of young female audiences.
Women’s tragedies easily arouse the sympathy of the same sex. Therefore, Zhao Lusi’s “The Pearl Curtain” attracted a large number of female viewers even though it had just been broadcast.
