During the Tianshun period in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, Cao Shaoqin (Donnie Yen), the eunuch of the East Factory, framed Yang Yuxuan, the minister of the Ministry of War, to death, and used exile as bait to lure Yang Yuxuan's troops to Huai 'an (Tony Leung Ka Fai) next week in an attempt to arrest all his old troops. Qiu (), a chivalrous woman in Jianghu, is entrusted by her lover Zhou Huai 'an. After a bloody battle, she rescued Yang's children and met them at the Longmen Inn on the desert border. Unexpectedly, the disguised East Factory Santan led the masters to follow.

Jin Xiangyu (Maggie Cheung), the proprietress who manages a black shop for a living, is coquettish and affectionate, and has a crush on Zhou Huai 'an. Unfortunately, Zhou Huaian already belongs to Qiu Moyan. At this point, Cao Shaoqin's big brigade is coming to Longmen Inn, where there are experts from the East Factory. Coupled with the unpredictable weather in the desert, Zhou Huai' an and others are tired of getting out. Zhou Huai 'an found a secret passage in the inn. In order to save Yang's orphans, Zhou Huai 'an did not hesitate to find out the secret passage on the condition of marrying, and made an agreement with Qiu Moyan and others to escape from the secret passage on their wedding night. Unexpectedly, Cao Shaoqin's big brigade has been killed.

When life, death, love and hate are interwoven between the yellow sand in Wan Li, Zhou, Qiu and Jin unite to kill the villain, and Qiu is also sacrificed. Zhou Huai 'an was determined to stay away from the Central Plains, burned down the inn and followed Zhou Huai 'an. [4]

Role introduction

Royal court

Yang Yuxuan

The Minister of War was trapped by the East Factory, leaving a son and a daughter.

Yang Yuxuan

Yang Yuxuan's children

Children rescued by Zhou Huai 'an and others.

Yang Yuxuan's children

Zhou Huaian

In return, Yang Yuxuan's subordinate coach tried to rescue Yang Yuxuan's children. Zhou Huai 'an used an umbrella sword, which was plain in appearance, but sharp and restrained in fact. Umbrella can shelter from the wind and rain, and is more suitable for defense, which embodies the profound characteristics of Zhou Huai 'an. In the face of the enemy, we must be far-sighted and hide our strength. Therefore, Zhou Huai' an can push the boat with the tide and stabilize the gold with jade. You can also compete with the masters of the East Factory at a critical moment, showing the lofty sentiments of emperors and generals. Choosing such a weapon is in line with Zhou Huai 'an's character. He knows how to disguise and compromise, so he, not Qiu, survived in the end.

Zhou Huaian

Person in charge (two persons)

Two officials in charge of escorting Yang Yuxuan's children. The bearded man surrendered first when he met Qiu (another man was later killed in a confrontation with Dongchang). After arriving at Longmen Inn, he was entertained by Zhou Huai 'an and sent away by Liang Yin. As a result, the heavy rain failed to make it. At first, the government protected the children, and then it rebelled. When he was in the bridal chamber, he told Cao Tian that Zhou Huai 'an would abscond through the secret passage of the gold-inlaid jade room. Jia Ting immediately cheated out the gold inlaid jade, disrupting Zhou Huai 'an's plan. Qiu Mo Yan mistakenly thought that Zhou Huai 'an was selfish, changed his countermeasures and forced He Hu and others to break through. As a result, he was seriously injured and He Hu and others were killed.

Director (Beard finally betrayed Zhou Huai 'an and his party)

General Qian Hu

The frontier commander guarding Longmen Pass, an old picture frame inlaid with gold and jade. He was ordered to arrest Zhou Huai 'an, but because of his deep pockets, he neglected his duties.

General Qian Hu

Dongchangfang

Shao Qin Cao

Governor of Dongchang, Governor of Beijing 3rd Battalion. Trying to control the court and seek usurpation. Cao Shaoqin uses a big sword, which can be held in both hands and is suitable for riding. Swordsmanship is unstoppable, with wide opening and closing, vertical and horizontal stabbing, reflecting the arrogant character. The last man gained the upper hand of Huai 'an and Qiu in the war, only to be ambushed by the Dalai Lama and stripped of his hands and feet. Zhou Huai 'an took the opportunity to kill Cao Shaoqin with his sword.

Shao Qin Cao

Jardin

The oldest in the fourth gear of Dongchang, the leader of Zhou Huai 'an in Longmen Inn. Jia Ting uses a judge's pen, which is calculated manually, with a thin nib and a thick round handle. It is mainly used for acupoint location and is a dangerous abnormal weapon. In the last battle, he was stabbed to death by Jin Xiangyu for killing people in Longmen Inn.

Jardin

Lu Xiaochuan

One of the four leaders of the East Factory, feminine and cunning, is Jia Ting's favorite internal supervisor (Jia Ting was caught off guard by Jin Xiangyu when he saw Lu Xiaochuan killed and shouted Nana Ogawa). The story arranged for him to use a silver needle because the villain likes to take advantage of people unprepared and win with cruel tricks. However, crooked ways cannot last long. In the last battle, the man who killed Longmen Inn was crushed to death by a stone mill inlaid with gold and jade.

Lu Xiaochuan

Cao Tian

One of the fourth gears in Dongchang, there is a mole between the eyebrows. Kill two birds with one stone regardless of the consequences. In the last battle, He Hu was shot dead by random arrows from the East Factory.

Cao Tian

Yanxiao Chang

One of the four leaders of the East Factory, who was responsible for drafting documents, once faked an imperial edict to execute Yang Yuxuan. Later, Cao Shaoqin arranged to intercept Zhou Huai 'an on the avenue, so he did not appear in the battle of Longmen Inn.

Yanxiao Chang

justice

Qiu Moyan

The Jianghu chivalrous man admires Zhou Huai 'an and is the main planner of the rescue operation. Qiu used a mother sword, and this "sword among swords" also implied that Qiu was like a "gentleman among gentlemen". Because in this story, Qiu's motivation is simple. Helan Mountain bandits saved orphans for money, gold inlaid with jade for color, and Zhou Huai 'an for gratitude. Only Qiu, even though he was betrayed at first because of his family, still gave his life to save people, belonging to the traditional martial arts chivalrous man. Therefore, it is natural that she finally sacrificed for others, but the "noble chivalrous spirit" is doomed to be lost in the "ruthless desert" (gold inlaid with jade), leaving only a mother sword to Zhou Huai' an to keep for her.

Qiu Moyan

Hehu

Mo Yan's outlaw in the green forest in autumn, and bandits in Helan Mountain. A Ju has a bad temper, and she took the lead several times because of impatience. On the way, complaining about saving others and making mistakes, Qiu had to add money. Finally, at dawn, he was shot dead by an arrow from the East Factory.

iron prop

Mo Yan's outlaw in the green forest in autumn, and bandits in Helan Mountain. Lack of determination, so that single-handedness does not have too many characteristics, and finally he and Hu were shot to death with random arrows. When they die, protect their children with their bodies. It can be seen that although they are here for money, they are also righteous people in the Jianghu.

Iron bamboo (beard) and He Hu (Buddha bead)

unknown hero

Qiu initially hired two of the four people. One person was killed while rescuing a child (first confrontation with Dongchang). Another man and He Hu were shot dead by random arrows.

Intrinsic aspect

Jin Xiangyu

The proprietress of Longmen Inn makes a profit by controlling secret passages and border generals. Gold-inlaid jade hanging edge, black and white to eat, how delicate few hands? Gold inlaid jade makes willow darts with her left hand and The Lancet with her right hand. Willow leaf is the best metaphor for women's eyebrows. Turning it into a weapon is naturally the most suitable for women, especially those who are graceful, charming and have sharp edges like gold and jade. Willow leaves are flexible and changeable, but both hidden weapons and broadsword are typical Jianghu kung fu, which also conforms to the identity of the proprietress of the black shop with gold inlaid jade in the desert.

Jin Xiangyu

Difficult to meet

The butcher of the Tatar Longmen Inn. In the last battle with Cao Shaoqin, he used boning knife and evasion to reverse the war. With an ordinary machete and a set of rough skills to understand cattle, the effect of "stones from other mountains can attack jade" has been produced, and the embarrassing ending also coincides with the Wulin rule that "one can't help himself in Jianghu".

Movie poster (7)

This episode of Xinlongmen Inn is adapted from folk songs [5]

1). Jin Xiangyu sings on the roof of the inn:

On August 15, the temple gate opened and all kinds of candles were put up.

The red candle is red and the white candle is white.

Little sister, I can't hold it any longer.

2). Northwest Folk Song Episode (sung by the inn staff while drinking):

Come and sit in the classroom after supper. Sister in the desert loves her brother, and Xiaojinlian loves her brother.

Drink a bowl of wine and pee. Men in the desert love their sisters, and so does my little lotus.

film-making

edit

The cast and crew worked hard.

Wu Siyuan said that the protagonist of the new Longmen Inn has no shelf: "They are all very modest. The play was shot in the desert of Gansu province, and the conditions were very bad. When the wind blows, everyone has nowhere to hide, so they have to face each other and use their backs to block the sand. A gust of wind passed, and the nose and mouth were covered with sand. At night, I went back to the hotel to take a shower, shook my arm and shook my head, but there was still a lot of sand falling and I couldn't wash it clean at all. Under such conditions, several big stars are almost all filmed by one person, with at most one assistant. Just like now, a star takes a large group of people with him wherever he goes. Sometimes I wonder whether this is progress or retrogression? " [6]

Brigitte Lin didn't finish the film.

Brigitte Lin recalled himself in the column "I cried for half of China" written for Southern Weekend.

Dongchang third gear

An accident occurred while filming "Xinlongmen Inn" in Dunhuang. It turned out that while shooting a close-up of a bamboo sword flying to Brigitte Lin's face, a bamboo hit her eye, which caused her eye membrane to rupture. In order to catch up with the progress, Brigitte Lin painstakingly finished filming, and he cried in the hotel that night. Although producer Tsui Hark and producer Shi Nansheng advised Brigitte Lin to continue filming with injuries, she decided to go back to Hong Kong for treatment. On the plane back to Hong Kong, she wrote: "I buried my face in a straw hat and shrugged my shoulders and cried all the way back to Hong Kong. Legend has it that Meng Jiangnv cried at the Great Wall to find her husband, and I cried for more than half of China because of Xinlongmen Inn. " Later, the unfinished scene of Brigitte Lin in Xinlongmen Inn was completed by body double. [7]

I understand the skills of cattle and make me a classic.

There are not many scenes of the Tatar Butcher in Xinlongmen Inn, but it is very important. More importantly, he left behind three classic action dramas, namely Understanding Sheep, Barbecued Pork Bag and Scraping Donnie Yen with a Knife. This film is Tong-the only film and television work. Now he has picked up an inkstone pen and become a painter.

Tong-Wang Chuan declassified the production process of the three major dramas, especially "Knife Scraping" at the end of the film, the representative work of China action film, which was designed by. First, Qiu was seriously injured and buried by quicksand, and Zhou Huai 'an was also injured. Just as he was about to be assassinated, Diao, a Tatar hiding in the desert, appeared in time and completed the sneak attack with a fierce and quick skill.

landlady

Cao Gonggong's hands and feet became bloody skeletons. In the era without CG film and television animation, such action drama has reached its peak.

In the scene of making "human pork buns", Tang said: "That belly is the actor's own. Really, not the model now, but the knife is fake. " "Now that I think about it, the success of 1992' s" New Longmen Inn "is because everyone in it is flesh and blood, the script is good, the characters are good, the actors are good, and everything is right, so a good movie was born. " [8]

Film evaluation

Monument of martial arts movies

The harsh desert, the folk customs in the northwest, the chivalry in the rivers and lakes, the wonderful martial arts, the well-behaved costumes, and the distinctive personality ... constitute the classics handed down from generation to generation, and are also the masterpieces of martial arts movies that we rarely see after those years. [9]

Produced by Tsui Hark and directed jointly by Li Huimin and Cheng Xiaodong, Xinlongmen Inn brings together stars such as Tony Leung Ka Fai, Brigitte Lin, Maggie Cheung and Donnie Yen. It is the best new martial arts film in Hong Kong. Jin Xiangyu was singing on the roof with his thighs bare, and the chef Tartar stripped my father-in-law's calf to the bone ... These scenes made many fans unforgettable all their lives, as if "the best time to watch China's martial arts movies". [9]

The story stands out from the crowd.

"Xinlongmen Inn" shows the advantages of Hong Kong-style martial arts films in the peak period to the fullest: the yellow sand in the desert, the gathering of experts, the narrow space, the battle of wits and the childlike innocence, and enlarges the classic symbols of martial arts films to the extreme. "People say that troubled times don't complain about being immersed in love. In fact, blood debts have deeper feelings. " Tsui Hark's introspective dialogue between rivers and lakes has implanted the affection of the children in Xinlongmen Inn into everyone's heart.

Tsui Hark once said: "Rivers and lakes are everywhere, and there are rivers and lakes at home." -Longmen Inn, as the carrier of the beginning of the dream of rivers and lakes, makes the legendary stories of autumn and Zhou Huai 'an spread forever. [ 10]
