Zhang Ziyi has a laugh

In the romantic comedy, Zhang plays Sophie, a young cartoonist who plans to win her boyfriend back after he dumps her for a beautiful actress, played by Fan Bingbing. She desperately schemes though most of these ideas don't turn out as she hopes.

In the movie, Zhang is at various points: drunk, mad, frustrated, eccentric, sweet, innocent and triumphant.
