A brief review of movies:

This film won the Taiwan Province Golden Horse Award for Best Actress, Best Screenplay, Best Art Design, Best Modeling Design and Best Movie Music.

This film is adapted from Zhang Ailing's novel Red Rose and White Rose. Zhang Ailing's novels are highly respected in the literary world, but several films adapted from her works have not received the same attention, mainly because the director is limited to the original work and has no innovation in image re-creation. Films directed by screenwriters and Guan also have shortcomings in this respect. Guan described a feeling of helplessness with a cold look. In the elevator going up and down, the delicate and beautiful face of the red rose reflects her inner twists and turns, and the white rose lives a pale and colorless life in the clean and bright bathroom. Exquisite and beautiful, decadent, but inadvertently reveals a trace of pure tenderness in the bottom of my heart. It is amazing that a man can portray a woman's feelings so delicately and richly. Chen Chong, who is well-known in Chinese mainland for A Little Flower (who won the Best Actress Award in Hundred Flowers Award), won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress for her outstanding performance in The Red Rose in this film. Known for her bold appearance, she made a splash in this film, eclipsing Boba Ye Yuqing, once known as the "third-class queen of Hong Kong". She is also full of amorous feelings, but relatively speaking, Chen Chong still knows more about acting than just showing off her figure.

Being in a distant foreign country, Yun still can't forget the past of harmony. If she had really promised to go with him that day, would they still be together now? Or are you destined to separate things?

Some people may say that since they moved into the same building on the same day and became neighbors, fate arranged them together. And when they find that there is a hidden relationship between their spouses, it is more like an invisible line between them, and they have been cutting.

Up to now, he can still see those wandering figures, meeting in an instant. The landlord couple, their wives, Mrs. Zhou, Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen. Stairs, corridors, passing her by, or smiling, never thought that her quiet face and beautiful posture would become unforgettable memories in the future.

Whether for revenge or temptation, or just for comfort, in the end, only care is left.

The Purple Butterfly: Romantic Depression in Old Shanghai

Director of The Purple Butterfly in 2003: There are two most touching scenes in Lou Ye's The Purple Butterfly. One is Stuart and Yiling dancing in the room, and it is raining cats and dogs outside the window. The lights in the room are warm and the songs are rippling. I don't know when my fate will change. The last intoxication spreads in it; Second, when Xia Xin and Yi Dan are in the elevator, the complex pattern of the old elevator has a dark silver luster. Two people with ulterior motives occasionally look at each other, and they feel very uneasy about their fate. The characters in these two shots have great emotional ups and downs, and the light and texture of the pictures are also in place. The conflict between people's momentary intoxication and ever-changing destiny in a specific era in Shanghai is very characteristic.

In this story set in Shanghai, War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Lou Ye actually vaguely grasped the characteristics of the times, but unfortunately passed it by. The Purple Butterfly attempts to present a macroscopic view of history under the background of an era and express a deep theme that cannot prove its existence value in a big era. In this two-and-a-half-hour film, Lou Ye's narrative dilemma is undoubtedly exposed. Although we can feel the director's painstaking efforts, the audience is completely confused by the boring long shots and abrupt editing. Lou Ye's works can obviously make people feel the great influence of Shanghai on him. From Suzhou Creek, which is full of postmodernism, to Purple Butterfly, which restores the romantic depression of old Shanghai in 1930s and 1940s, Lou Ye almost created a unique Shanghai in his works, which is also the symbolic feature of Lou Ye's works.
