I want to know the position of the film "White-haired Girl" in the film history of China.

Brief introduction of film

Rural areas in North China before liberation. Yang Bailao is a poor tenant farmer. He lost his wife in his early years and gave birth to a daughter named Xi. They lived alone. Neighbor Aunt Wang and her son Wang Jing often take care of Yang's father and daughter in many ways, and the two families live in harmony. My daughter and Da Chun have been together for a long time, and they hit it off. The two elders agreed to hold a wedding for them after autumn. Huang Shiren, the bully landlord, wanted to occupy his beautiful young daughter, so he designed it with Mu Renzhi, the housekeeper, and forced Yang Bailao to repay the debt within one year with heavy rent and huge profits. On Chinese New Year's Eve, Yang Bailao was finally forced by Huang Shiren to sign Xi's deed of sale, because he was unable to repay the loan sharks. Yang Bailao was in great pain, so he drank bittern and killed himself when he got home. After being robbed into Huang Zhai, Xi Er was tortured. In order to sever Joy's affection for her, Huang Shiren reclaimed the land rented by the Wangs, expelled Aunt Wang and her mother, and waited for an opportunity to rape Joy. Da Chun failed to save Joey, but defected to the Red Army. With the help of Huang's maid, the pregnant aunt escaped from the tiger's mouth and gave birth to a baby on the way. She died immediately. Then I went to the cave in the mountain alone, and I stayed there after eating the wind. After a long time, a head of hair becomes white. Because Xi 'er often goes to the ruined temple to take offerings to satisfy his hunger, he is regarded as a "white-haired fairy" by the villagers. After the outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Da Chun returned to his hometown with the Eighth Route Army. At this point, Huang Shiren borrowed villagers' superstitions to create rumors of "white hair fairy" to confuse people. Da Chun, who stayed in the countryside, began to reduce rent and interest rates to raise people's awareness, and went to find out, only to meet Xi in the cave. In the village trial, Huang Shiren and Murenzhi were severely punished. After Xi was cornered, her white hair turned into long hair, and finally she married Da Chun.

On the eve of the birth of New China, film directors Hua Shui and Wang Bin invited me to participate in the adaptation of the opera White-haired Girl into a film. After the script of film literature was released, the film crew and I went to Tiangui Mountain in Pingshan to shoot the location, where there was a white-haired fairy cave. Weiyun Wu, the chief photographer, said with emotion that the landscape of the white-haired girl's hometown is as beautiful as that of Guilin! Tian Hua, who plays Xi 'er, said that the sisters in the hometown of the white-haired girl are as amiable as their own sisters! The villagers actively assisted in filming. Li Million, who plays the role, and Tian Hua, who plays the role, go into the mountains to chop wood. Li Wan is not allowed to climb the cliff. Taoist Liu, who is over 60 years old in Ye Nan Village, recommended himself as Da Chun instead of Li Million, and cut firewood at the edge of the cliff for free. In Chaizhuang Village 10, many poor farmers took part in harvesting and paid rent, so they could not go home to harvest autumn wheat for nearly a month. The film crew gave them money, but everyone refused, saying that filming the white-haired girl was their own business and their due responsibility.

After the film was released, Zhou Yang, Vice Minister of Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China, said that the artistic truth and life of the film White-haired Girl had reached a perfect unity. Comrade Mao Dun, Minister of Culture, said angrily that the film White-haired Girl is another White-haired Girl.

From the opera "White-haired Girl" to the movie "White-haired Girl", it truly reflects the historical truth that the old society forced people into ghosts and the new society turned ghosts into people. It has a shocking power and is loved by the broad masses and welcomed by people all over the world.
