Social evaluation of the film Dingjun Mountain:

Once China's films came out, they had distinctive national characteristics. Maybe this is a match made in heaven. China's first film is actually a combination of the quintessence of Peking Opera, and the play is also a symbolic Dingjun Mountain. The famous actress Tan Xinpei became the first performing artist in China to set foot in the film industry. Therefore, although this silent film made with only one hand-held wooden camera has no considerable copies, its prominent position in film history is unique.
