This Marie Claire China editorial featuring Zhou Xun is such an interesting portrait study. I really like the serene feel and character which comes through each image. I've always admired her dynamic screen presence and acting range. I recently re-watched Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress which is one of the films that brought her international recognition. It was as good as I remembered and it's amazing how well Zhou Xun and her co-stars Chen Kun and Liu Ye have aged and their careers have flourished. The actress who made her Hollywood debut as Tom Hanks' sister in the sci-fi fantasy Cloud Atlas will soon be making a return to Chinese television with an adaptation of Red Sorghum, the classic novel by Mo Yan.
I'm mostly over the flu but still taking it easy. I had forgotten about the simultaneous fever and cold chills that come with this illness along with the dizzying achiness. If it's another 10 years before I get it again, it won't be too soon. Btw Sambucol/Elderberry is really quite effective against flu symptoms. Thanks so much for all the well wishes! I hope to catch up with everyone soon.

Very beautiful editorial. Love the black and white. I am reading a book that takes place in Japan it is a historical thriller. I am doing a post on this week so check in. Ugh I do not have an infection in my sinus so now I have to go to a specialist. Damage may have been done to the nerves because the root canal was done too deep and went in to the bone.

She looks very mysterious and serene in this editorial, Rowena. Hope a flu entirely escapes your body very soon. Stay warm there.
She's so pretty
yet there is a hint of emotion and mystery in most of her pics.

I hope you'll feel better as my earlier post I came down the same, it was the worst feeling ever. I pray and hope you'll get plenty of rest. I agree Zhou Xun is a very beautiful actress. I recently watched her movie called - The Great Magician with Tony Leung in it. It was an okay storyline cause the pilot was just jumping everywhere, where it was hard to follow a bit.
She looks so pretty and so mysterious... and the ultimate indie rock chic!
She is gorgeous Rowena and has the most beautiful eyes!
amazing photos my dear !
