"Hero" Zhang Yimou 2002
The first time I saw this classic masterpiece, it gave me the feeling that it was an upgraded version of "Rashomon", but it was different.
First, the narrative structure is different
Second, the visual feast of color is more layered and artistically valuable than the black and white film of Akira Kurosawa's "Rashomon", and the breakthrough adds color to the narrative, sublimating it into a "poetry" general mood.
Third, the historical background is different. "Hero" is supported by the historical background, and the identities of King Qin, Wuming, and Canjian seem to be compared between one big and two small, but in fact, when they expound their opinions, the three clearly become one identity. , that is "people", human beings with love, righteousness and flesh and blood. And when King Qin knew the real reason why Can Jian did not kill him, Can Jian's halo was instantly magnified, and the audience who won the victory deserved the title of "hero". , The spirit of seeing death as home is pushed to the peak. This also reflects the national spirit.
· But from the ending point of view, it is more commercial Hollywood, very direct. I think if we put it now, the national teacher may not make this ending. In this era of fast and direct output of information and rapid consumption of emotions, those things that need to be thought and felt are what can really be left to us.
