Why did Stephen Chow quit acting to be a director?
Stephen Chow can be said to be one of the most familiar comedians. During his long acting career, he contributed countless wonderful shots to us. Until this year, many people especially like to watch his previous movies. I am no exception, and I will often watch his movies when I have time now. His films are all made with heart and full of creativity, and many of them are particularly interesting today. As a fond memory of his childhood, Stephen Chow retired in 2008 and went behind the scenes. Her main job is as a director. So why did Stephen Chow choose to be a director instead of filming? The first and most obvious reason why Stephen Chow retired from the background is his age. For Stephen Chow, getting old means not being the same as before. We all know that Stephen Chow's comedies need a lot of physical strength, because he has to constantly play tricks and sometimes perform some difficult actions in the movies, which is too difficult for people of Stephen Chow's age. Moreover, Stephen Chow is too old to be funny, and he knows that the audience will not like to see himself playing tricks when he is too old. The second reason is that few plays can reach the standard of Stephen Chow. Good scripts are not always available. In the golden age of Hong Kong movies, many good scripts emerged one after another, but Hong Kong movies didn't lag behind, that is, since 2000, many screenwriters couldn't write such good scripts, and Stephen Chow was a person who had high demands on scripts. If there is no good script, he would rather not shoot it, which is one of the important reasons why Stephen Chow appeared in the film in his later period. The last reason is that Stephen Chow knows that she is going to change. Even if I am as good as Stephen Chow, I know in my heart that I can't enjoy the bonus of comedy movies all my life, and I have to transform. The reason why he chose to be a director is that Stephen Chow can better grasp the rhythm of the film and has great power in choosing actors. So even when Stephen Chow is old, he can still make movies according to his own ideas.
