Which director's style do you like best?

I like director Zhang Yimou very much. I have basically watched all his film and television dramas. I think he is very talented and hard-working. He seems to be all right, supercilious, doing his own thing faithfully from beginning to end, and the result is excellent. I don't think there are many such people. As a graduate of photography department, Zhang Yimou was discovered by director Wu by chance and starred in the film Old Well. Because of this film, Zhang Yimou won the Best Actor in the 1988 Tokyo Film Festival, and made great achievements.

In China, Zhang Yimou is a legend in the film industry. He has never made a TV series, and he is focused on film creation. His works are always full of praise, whether it is urban themes or country stories, whether it is modern or contemporary. Some commercial films also have artistic characteristics, and of course some artistic films will also have commercial colors. Zhang Yimou prefers to classify his films as art films.

From his first film "Red Sorghum" to now, his films have never lost money, and they are all extraordinary. All kinds of palace awards at home and abroad will be collected. The movie market is not very prosperous now, but Zhang Yimou has been short of funds for so many years and has never invested in making movies. Most films in Zhang Yimou are made on a small scale. Nevertheless, the biggest feature of Zhang Yimou's films is that they are worth seeing. He believes that human emotions are understandable, regardless of nationality and national boundaries. If they touch you, you will like them. I think his films are fragmentary, so many people say that he can't tell good stories. Zhang Yimou's films actually belong to a kind of realistic notes.
