Raise the Red Lantern

Raise the Red Lantern

The film "High Red Lanterns" follows the style of "Chrysanthemum Dou", and is a work that truly brings out the shape and ideas to the extreme. This time Zhang Yimou tells the story in an absolutely closed environment. Song Lian, a female student, was married to the Chen family compound by her stepmother, who was obsessed with wealth, and became the fourth wife here. Under a large number of overhead shots, the deep blue-grey courtyard of the Chen family seems to be a microcosm of feudal society. It is framed and restrained. There is no other way out except the corner of the sky above the head, and red lanterns have become the only color. In order to vividly and profoundly express the intriguing life scene in the "polygamous" feudal family and the bondage and destruction of women by feudal ethics, Zhang Yimou developed a complete set of audio-visual language symbols to highlight. He regards the "big red lantern" as a symbol of power. Every time he lights, extinguishes, and seals the lamp, it is like performing a ritual, which has a strong sense of majesty and impact. And then through "beating the feet" to cooperate with the hearing, it constitutes a rich three-dimensional, rich style audio-visual language system.



In the movie "Big Red Lanterns Hanging High", "lighting the lamp and beating your feet" represents a sad right in the deep house compound, and it also represents the status of women in this compound. Therefore, it is not only an audio-visual language style, but also participates in the film narrative and becomes an indispensable part of it, which makes the film have a strong metaphorical and symbolic style.
