I don't know why everyone doesn't give high marks but I really think it's great...Three brushes!
There are really not many Chinese costume films that can have a sense of black humor. The cores of war, life, and little people are actually of modern significance, not just watching the excitement of history. The form of a comedy road film and the historical culture of ancient costumes are perfectly combined. The entire expression, the use of the lens, has a hint of Kurosawa Akira. Just ask if you dare to make historical subjects so absurd, interesting and sad. (The part about the Master and his two apprentices is especially so)
The selection of scenes is great, and the art is very ancient: I like this one the most among the films with the background of the Warring States Period, because I feel that he has produced the feeling of "Three Hundred Poems". It has the spirit of King Daya Wen sighing about the rise and fall of the country, and the atmosphere of the people's style. Tell simple and detailed stories with beautiful graphics and sound.
Several characters are very abstract, without names, without a complete and clear background of experience, but they can feel the joys and sorrows of their lives from just a few words. This is largely due to the careful design of lines. It seems like a gag, but every sentence can achieve "two birds with one stone", or even "several birds with one stone". Soldiers, generals, singers, thieves, princes, and masters, these dotted characters cover the social environment of the entire era. That's something I've never seen in a costume movie now, and that's the point of it that amazes me.
Just like the "Book of Songs", you only know that there are women and gangsters, and they have moving stories, but you don't know who they are - you don't need to know who they are, it doesn't prevent you from being moved by them - this may That's why they impress you more, because there is a mist, they are like anyone you know in your life, you may not know their past or where they will go in the future, but you know what they have been through Many, things are happening, life is so real. Unlike some films, the characters are explained too clearly. If the explanation is unclear, the memory should be filmed and the narration should be explained clearly. Such characters will not be so moving.
Maybe we should make some costume films like this, not just to shock the audience with the spectacles produced by the cultural differences between the past and the present, not only to attract attention with the aesthetic heritage of ancient culture, but to truly show life in this way. Think, explore the modern meaning of the story itself, and combine the beautiful ancient folk customs with interesting and nutritious content, so as to explore a popular film road suitable for China.
