Eliza Sam delivers stellar performances in ‘Heart and Greed’
HONG KONG: As mediocre drama ‘Heart and Greed’ enters its last arc, viewers were pleasantly surprised by Eliza Sam’s acting.
In recent episodes, Eliza displayed great acting skills especially in her crying scenes.
Sharing a bittersweet romantic storyline with Vincent Wong, Eliza was forced to leave Vincent due to family obligations. After 30 episodes of repressed feelings, Vincent finally confessed his love to Eliza.
However, happiness did not last long, as Eliza’s father Joseph Lee experiences business bankruptcy. Jason Chan comes into the picture and saves the day, offering Joseph the HK$5 billion he needed to save the company. To help save her father’s company, Eliza marries Jason despite still being in love with Vincent.
Eliza impressed with her acting range. In one scene, Eliza reunites with Joseph who ran away from home due to his failed business. Although upset with the dilemma, Eliza holds back tears in order to comfort her father.
Another scene is when Eliza breaks up with Vincent, despite the couple still being deeply in love. Eliza’s crying scenes were full of emotions and viewers could feel Eliza’s torn sentiments.
Eliza was nominated as TV Queen this year through her role in this drama. Though Eliza’s chances of winning the award may be slim to none, many applauded her acting skills and improvements. ‘Heart and Greed’ allowed Eliza to showcase her acting range and step out of her usual bubbly, happy-go-lucky roles.’
