In the movie, the Anglo-Saxons are portrayed as aggressive and arrogant yellow-haired tough guys, and the Chinese are transformed into courteous black-haired gangsters. In order to preach and teach the profession, they travel across the oceans, and their ideals are buried in reality and depressed. Facing this land with a strong cynic atmosphere outside the screen, I can only say that the author, you are too overestimating the...

The axe splits the door, "The Shining"! Chen Huan pulled away the American sailors who were fighting with each other and persuaded them to make peace as the most important thing. His saying was: Buddha said, don't do to others what you don't...

A classic romance film by D·W. Griffith, it has attracted attention because of the love between Chinese men and white girls. Griffith was once questioned about the racism in "The Birth of a Nation", and I don't know if this work has his own intentions. In fact, the image of the Chinese in the film still looks uncomfortable. Even if it is performed by foreigners, the feelings are beautiful. And the portrayal of love only...

Girls are controlled and possessed by the white patriarchal order, and Eastern men can only fantasize and obscure them, which is very typical of Western Phallocentrism. Some interior scenes still have a strong staged trace of the fourth wall viewpoint, and the use of parallel montage is a little bit...

9. Probably the important innovations in film photography technology in the entire 10s have been completed. Then the photography method leading the photography trend in the next two decades is to create a visual style of soft focus photography. This film is in some Lilian Gish And some empty lenses made such a soft, blurry lens. ｜On the other hand, regarding performance, the story of this film is similar to Lilian Gish’s life experience.

DWGriffith is a silent masterpiece that cannot be ignored. The hero and heroine boldly talked about interracial love in 1919. The heroine Lillian Gish was a popular innocent girl in Hollywood at that time. Almost every close-up was processed with a filter, which was dreamy to a certain...

Three-and-a-half years, a rare film that portrays the Chinese positively, and also expresses interracial love ahead of time. The two most memorable passages: The girl lifted her lips with her fingers, and made a strong smile. The Chinese wanted to kiss the girl, but in the end only kissed her sleeve. There is a section of Lilian Gish’s memory behind the scenes in the Kino DVD, which is...

Love in the silent film era. It seems funny but sad. The protagonist's eyes can never be opened and the heroine's always stern look. The color tone is not...

Sad story Wow, the white actor squinted his eyes and humped back and played the Chinese unexpectedly. There is no sense of sadness. The girl is slender and pitiful, and the subtitles are full of what words can bring (I don't know how to say it). It turns out that from the beginning, American films have a temperament of "ah, this is an American film" hhh. The film is so smooth that I forget that I am also a person who has seen color and sound films. I think that film is not just such a thing....
