Dou Jingtong (R) in The Eleventh Chapter Tencent
Dou Jingtong has inherited her parents’ musical talent as the daughter of “diva” Wang Fei and rock pioneer Dou Wei.
作为天后王菲和摇滚先锋窦唯的女儿，窦靖童继承了父母的音乐天赋。
Dou was a vocalist in a band she formed in 2011. To date, she has released three albums and wrote theme songs for many movies such as Soulmate. “It’s refreshing to be introduced through my music, rather than something that’s irrelevant to my music,” Dou once said in an interview, China Daily noted. But after trying her hand in the film industry, Dou is now delighted to be recognized through her acting.
2011年，窦靖童组建了自己的乐队并担任主唱。至今，她已经发布了三张专辑，为《七月与安生》等多部电影创作主题曲。据中国日报报道，窦靖童曾在一次采访时表示：“通过我的音乐来介绍我，而不是一些与音乐无关的东西，这挺让人开心的，”但在首次触电大银幕后，现在的窦靖童很乐意人们通过她的表演认识她。
Dou’s debut film, The Eleventh Chapter, hit cinemas on April 2. It involves a conflict between a family and a theatrical troupe. Dou plays Jin Duoduo, a daughter of single mother Jin Cailing (Zhou Xun) who marries Ma Fuli (Chen Jianbin, also the director). As of this writing, the movie has a score of 7.5 out of 10 on Douban.
4月2日，窦靖童的电影处女作《第十一回》上映。这部影片讲述了一家人和话剧团之间的矛盾纠缠。窦靖童饰演单亲妈妈金财铃（周迅饰）的女儿金多多，金财铃后又嫁给了马福礼（陈建斌饰，兼导演）。截至发稿，该电影豆瓣评分7.5分。
In the eyes of the majority, Dou looks very cool with her gender-neutral look. In the film, Dou had to wear a blue dress. For Dou, who hardly dresses like that in public, “wearing dresses could be my biggest challenge,” Dou said with laughter.
在大多数人眼中，窦靖童一身中性装扮十分帅气。在电影中，窦靖童需要穿一件蓝色连衣裙。对于几乎从不在公众前面如此打扮的窦靖童来说，“最大的挑战是穿裙子，”窦靖童笑言。
Without much practical experience, Dou’s acting skills were initially in question. But Chen spoke highly of the singer-turned-actress. “Dou was born to be an actor just as she is gifted to make music,” Chen told Maoyan. In one behind-the-scenes video, Dou asked Zhou to slap her hard in order to make it more real. Thanks to her dedication, Dou won Best Supporting Actress for her role in The Eleven Chapter at the Ninth Beijing International Film Festival’s Tiantan Awards in 2019.
由于没有太多表演经验，窦靖童的演技最初受到质疑。但陈建斌对从歌手转型成为演员的窦靖童评价很高。“窦靖童是天生的演员，这种天赋就跟她的音乐一样，”陈建斌在接受猫眼电影采访时表示。在一段幕后花絮中，窦靖童要求周迅使劲扇自己几巴掌以便呈现真实效果。得益于这份敬业精神，窦靖童凭借《第十一回》中金多多一角拿下了2019年第9届北京国际电影节天坛奖“最佳女配角奖”。
To check out Dou’s next role, you don’t miss her upcoming movie Bipolar, to be released on June 18.
