"True Colors of Heroes 2" was released in 1987. At the end of the 1990s, I rounded up to a post-00. All my impressions of it still come from "Please Answer 1988". Just looked it up last night. I don't really watch movies like Hong Kong that are rich in violent aesthetics. The only movie I remember is "Bloodblood" that my teacher played in the class when I was in college. At that time, the hall was full of riots, or complained about the plot, or called out the excitement, but it was a joy to watch.
The clip played in "Reply 1988" is that Leslie Cheung, who played Song Zijie, wanted to talk to his newborn daughter when he was dying after being shot. The blood-stained phone booth, one person is born and one person dies, is a strong contrast. This method has often appeared in major film and television works so far.
It's not necessarily how clever the plot design is, but the actors of that era can always play every role and take root in the hearts of the audience. I have to say that Leslie Cheung is really handsome at this time.
Brotherly love under the hail of bullets, thrilling bullets flying, blood dripping everywhere... The smooth and very impactful visual effects have become the exclusive labels of Hong Kong movies in the golden age, and there are still a number of them today. Loyal fans.
But I still think that this kind of movie is only tasted by a group of people watching it together, just like the little friends in Shuangmendong and us in college.
