1997 Italian film "Beautiful Life". The main story is that a Jewish father and son were sent to a Nazi concentration camp. Father used his imagination to lie that they were playing games. Finally, the father left his son's childlike innocence unharmed, but he died tragically (from Baidu Encyclopedia). If I remember correctly, it was 10 years ago, which was given to us by the head teacher who studied for himself one night in senior high school. I remember that after reading it, the class teacher as a political teacher asked us to write a weekly composition and a review for the Chinese teacher. Although many plots in this film have been forgotten …

1997 Italian film "Beautiful Life".

Stephen Chow's westward journey.

"East in and west out" must have a name!

That day, my niece, 12 years old, excitedly told me how many stars there are in a movie and how funny the plot is, and strongly recommended me to see it.

I checked the Douban score and cast list online, sighed and said to my little niece, "You are still too young! Only a few actors make guest appearances, and it's good to say' stars gather'. You go to see "East in and West out" and see what an all-star lineup is. "

My little niece looked at me in disbelief. Alas, I am really old. This masterpiece of "Going East and Going West" may only belong to people of our time!

"Going East and Going West" mainly tells a series of absurd stories of Dong Xie, Du, Nan Di, Bei Gai, Zhou and others when they were young, directed by (director of a Chinese Odyssey) and supervised by Wong Kar-wai.

Feel the luxurious cast:

If there is any movie that can make up the cast, it is estimated that the labor cost of actors will drag down a film production company before it is turned on.

Shooting background

The success and popularity of "Going East and Going West" is purely unintentional, thanks to its "twin brother"-"Ashes of Time".

1992, Wong Kar-wai began to shoot "Ashes of Time", which was praised as "the alternative peak of China's martial arts movies". This film not only has an extremely strong "Wong Kar-wai" color, but also has three "disadvantages":

1, which took two years to complete, is extremely rare in the Hong Kong film industry; Of course, it is normal for Wong Kar-wai;

2. There was no narration when shooting, so Zhang Shuping had to edit and write a movie narration;

3. There was a shortage of funds. It was Leslie Cheung who helped to contact some investors and raised two money to help Wong Kar-wai.

Based on the above reasons, investors were afraid that they could not recover the cost, so they asked Wong Kar-wai to make a funny movie with the same cast, so there was "Going East and Going West"-from the behind-the-scenes production team to the stars in front of the screen, all of them were the original crew of the movie "Ashes of Time".

Later, Time Has Passed won the Best Film of the Hong Kong Film Critics Association and Wong Kar-wai won the Best Director of the Hong Kong Film Critics Association. Leslie Cheung won the Best Actor of Hong Kong Film Critics Association and the Best Actor of 5 1 Venice International Film Festival. Du Kefeng and Zhang Shuping also won some awards, such as best photography and best editing.

Dongcheng Xi wine doesn't seem to have won any awards, but it has a good reputation. Fans commented that this is "a funny film full of nonsense and joy." The gestures and stunts in the film are a rebellion against the whole new martial arts movie. "

Among them, funny clips such as Affectionate Knife, Sword Eye to Eye, Dry Wood and Fire Palm are still unforgettable. A deep and incomparable "hero" turned into a funny genius inside; Hong Qigong, played by Jacky Cheung, sang "I Love You" when expressing his love to his cousin, which was regarded as a classic by fans.

However, it may be that "Ashes of Time" is too obscure in literature and art, and its box office and word-of-mouth are not as good as Dongcheng Xi-9. The Douban score of "Ashes of Time" is 8.6, and Dongcheng Xi-9 is 8.7.

Nowadays, New Year's films are all "younger brothers".

The film was shot near the end of the year, so it was originally planned to be made into a funny New Year film. The shooting cycle was only two months, and the release time was 65438+1February 5, 993, when the box office was 22 million Hong Kong dollars. It must be noted that it is 1993. What is the concept of HK$ 22 million?

1998, Xiaogang Feng filmed China's first New Year movie "A, B, C and D", which opened the New Year movie market in China, with a box office of 36 million that year.

So all the New Year movies we see now are the "little brothers" in "Going East and Going West".

The Age of the Gods is over.

At present, the works of Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Maggie Cheung, Carina Lau, Zhong Zhentao and Jacky Cheung are rarely published.

Leslie Cheung left us early, leaving only fans to commemorate1every April;

After Tony Leung Chiu Wai and Carina Lau got married, Maggie Cheung became his eternal "unforgettable";

When Tony Leung Ka Fai starred in Hunan Taiwan's "Growing All the Way", the twin daughters were in their twenties;

Brigitte Lin's last concentrated appearance was "Idol Comes" on 20 15. Later, the news of divorce and huge property was rampant, and it has been silent for several years. ...

The torrent of years rolled forward, and it was called "the fairy age" by netizens in the 1990s, because all the actresses at that time were in full bloom, but "Mei Zhu Lan Ju, each leading the way" and "all the actresses now look the same".

Is the aesthetic changed?

12-year-old niece looked at Dong Cheng Xi Jiu for about 20 minutes and said, "Where have all the stars gone?" I don't know any of them. "

Yes, for those born after 00 or 10, the little fresh meat and young ladies of men and women are their idols.

Idols are also divided into ages. It seems that we are really old!

That year passed by in a hurry. I thought I was still a student. I was singing before the classmates in the next class passed by my window. Those silent hours, those warm colors, gathered into tears in the silent past, and those smiles and homesickness that have been precipitated for many years have all appeared with this drama. ...

It took decades to wake up, time flies, white hair dyed temples, old age and nostalgia are all vague memories.

Take these for example. It's all quite classic.

In the last scene of Star Master's movie A Chinese Odyssey, the Monkey King kissed the fairy Xia Zi on the wall and walked away with a golden hoop in his handsome hands. The warriors and beauties on the wall laughed at him and thought of a dog. I didn't understand the meaning of this sentence before Seeing this is just a question. I can't figure out what this sentence means. Obviously, this sentence is not an ordinary transitional line. After a long time, I watched this movie at dinner after work. When I saw the last scene, I seemed to suddenly understand something. My tears flowed down, I began to lose my voice, and finally choked for a long time. I stood in front of the balcony window of the rental house, sobbing silently while smoking, waiting for my mood to calm down. It was getting dark in the afternoon. I looked at the sunset scenery outside the window and thought a lot. I suddenly understood the meaning of this sentence, and an unspeakable empathy made me lose control of my emotions.

There is also a plot in the movie "Hello, Brother Tree". More and more empathy. In too many scenes, there is always a tree elder brother, and sometimes his performance is the performance of tree elder brother at a certain moment. The scene of being looked down upon, despised, valued and reluctantly perfunctory finally fully understood the essence of this film.

A good movie seems to stand the test of time. No matter how bad it was when it was first released, it will eventually prove its existence value through time.

Personal opinion, for reference only!

My lover

tunnel warfare

When I was a child, I watched tunnel warfare with my parents and uncle and my whole family around black and white TV dramas.

You, or the original you?

A few years ago, I happened to see old boys directed by Sean, and suddenly I found myself getting old. The scene in the movie reminds me.

When I was a student, it was a carefree and happy time. Simple teenagers once left joy in every corner of the campus.

Smile, where is the girl you secretly loved in those years now?

Time has passed, that boy has already become a greasy uncle, and his dream has changed thousands of times with the progress of the times.
