Written in 2012, I liked to use punctuation at that time.
The two most popular movies in Taiwan this year!
One, Nine Swords "Those Years" can't change the contempt for Taiwan's entertainment culture after reading, watching their variety shows with no bottom line (removing bras on the spot, leaking points, tongue kissing, chest scratching), uneducated entertainers (actually said Apple fell on Clinton's head, and it has gravitational force; it is too small to say that 300,000 people died in the Nanjing Massacre, and actually said that he is not Chinese...Fuck!!!!), since the idol drama became popular , Taiwan's media and cultural output, in addition to idol dramas are idol dramas,,, even movies can not get rid of "idol"! !
Movies are called the ninth art, idols are not art, don't confuse them! !
Another, Wei Desheng "Sedek Bale"! ! But it gave me the introspection and impulse to re-understand Taiwanese culture! ! At the same time, because the actor was not rated as the Golden Horse Best Actor, he gave a little white face puzzled and angry!
About the version
We didn't expect the CFA to review and edit a movie from the perspective of art, director or screenwriter. What they care about is the "red line" and "sensitivity"! Knowing that the director's filming is difficult, he originally wanted to enter the theater to show his support, but was blocked by the 153-minute film length. For a person who loves movies, the director's cut version is his most pursuit!
The 276-minute version released in Taiwan is divided into two parts, "The Sun" and "Rainbow Bridge"! It's the full and director's cut!
Among the 5 versions currently in use, the "Mainland version" has a score of 154-1 for the introduction of the "International version". It has already compressed and cut off many classic lines and fragments, and it needs to be compressed for another minute! ! Plus two sentences to modify the willing lines!
Friends around me are mostly 240-257 minutes, but it is good to be able to see the upper and lower versions. In the next 247 minutes, the upper and lower two! ! It's already overjoyed and amazed! Thank you to those unsung heroes of the internet! !
About the director
The director's original intention for making this film reminds me of Shinji Fukasaku's "Battle Royale", his experience is similar to Ang Lee's "Lust and Caution", and his difficulties are even more difficult than Lu Chuan's "Nanjing Nanjing"!
From the completion of the script in 2000 to the 12-year release, 20,000 people were mobilized across the country to participate in the film. Since the filming began, it has burned 1 million yuan every day. In 2008, "Cape No. 7" made a profit of 50 million plus debts, friends in the circle, and friends everywhere. Money looking for money, local "Executive Yuan" restrictions, actor turmoil,,,, going through a lot of pressure, but his determination is like a line in a movie, "The Japanese are denser than the leaves of the forest, and thicker than the stones of a turbid stream. There are more, but my determination to resist is stronger than Qilaishan!"
In Taiwan, a place where culture is beginning to slump and entertainment has become the norm in life, there is such a person who dares to shoulder non-mainstream culture, rebuild Taiwan's lost history and memory, and overcome all difficulties and courage. He should be given "national treasure" level respect and treated with kindness. !
About "Mei Sun"
The domestic score is only 0.1 more than the previous file "Avengers" in the same period. The latter is a pure commercial film with sincerity, and the box office is evidence. It has swept the major box office charts around the world. The former is a heroic epic film, and Taiwan has the largest investment in the history of the film. The gap between the two is so big, but the ratings are puzzling! ! After reading some domestic film reviews with low ratings, most of them focus on the anti-"Mei Sun" complex!
Feel free to express conflicting opinions here!
Zhang Li's "Towards the Republic" has never been a fan of TV dramas, but this one attracted me. It was the first time in the domestic media that I saw a different voice about a historical figure - Li Hongzhang, after Grandpa Deng made a "traitor" comment on him, No one dares to surpass such evaluations! The historical education received since childhood, when he knew nothing about him, the negative image has been stereotyped! Zhang Li gave this historical figure an "inaction" model. Define him as a "person", a neutral description, and let the audience judge the merits and demerits by themselves! Others, such as Cao Cao in "Three Kingdoms"!
Patriotic movies like "Tunnel Warfare" and "Mine Warfare" convey to us a very simple worldview, Japan is pure evil, and China is pure good! Now it seems that, according to Ma Yuan, it is called one-sided and subjective, and it can be understood as idealism!
There was a film in Israel "Waltzing with Bashir" and there was a dialogue that made me understand how ordinary people are doing in the war!
"Why are we robbing?!"
"God knows, I just know, I'm going to be killed if I don't shoot!"
There is a Japanese soldier in "Nanjing Nanjing" who does not understand why he left his hometown to come to China to kill, abuse, rob and rape women! He was in so much pain that he committed suicide!
Three years ago, when I watched "Goodbye Firefly" for the first time, I was angrily smashing the wall. The war that the Japanese launched themselves, but shamelessly called the world about my own misery! As I grow older, my horizons gradually broaden, and my experience gradually increases, when I watch it for the second time, I cry,,,, Hayao Miyazaki is not showing his pity, he is complaining about the war!
When every Chinese hate that period of history, we can disagree, but we should not completely deny all the culture and history they created! We can't forget the shame, but we can't dwell on the past forever!
We need to be objective,,,,, when we grow up, we must understand our own culture, but at the same time we must understand the culture of others, in order to enhance our strengths and avoid our weaknesses!
The mainland version revised the two lines of willingness, which should be taking into account the domestic "anti-Japanese" sentiment...
Change 1: At the end of the film, a Japanese officer sighed: "Why do I see the Japanese Bushido spirit in such a remote Taiwanese mountain?" Changed to "Why do I see this group of people in such a remote Taiwanese mountain?" A warrior facing death?"
Change 2. When Hanaoka Ichiro communicated with Mona Ludo, he said: "Is it bad to be ruled by Japan?" Changed to "Is it bad to be ruled by civilization?"
Is it good or bad to comment on the changes when you read the original?
About Faith
The mainland publicized this film and said it was an "anti-Japanese" film, but I thought it was a film of faith! Some people call it the Taiwanese version of "Braveheart", probably count it! "Braveheart" is chasing the hero's cry "freedom" before he dies, and "Balley" is looking for lost beliefs, their totems - blood sacrifice ancestors, their pastures, and their rainbow bridges.
When I was a child, I used to jokingly tell my father that we are a generation without faith. Father immediately told seriously, you have, communism. Don't laugh when you see this. Communism is a political belief, and political belief is also a belief! When I watched "Red Rock", no one forced me, I just wanted to know how powerful and holy the power of belief is, and it also made me understand that the Communist Party members should be like Xu Yunfeng, Jiang Jie, Xiangang in "Red Rock" since I was a teenager. Like Hua Ziliang,,,,, because I have never had that kind of consciousness, so I always think that I am not qualified to join!
When men can't hunt, women can't weave, and the danger of losing their own language, until they lose their dignity, the meaning of ethnic existence will change, and their beliefs will also be lost. For this reason, they resist and bear the risk of genocide. They will not turn back! When I saw women commit suicide collectively in order not to implicate men, I couldn't help crying anymore. The war is so cruel and history is so real, that makes us admire and admire this feat so much!
What happens when faith is lost?
Can't tell right from wrong, good and evil, and the result will be like Tie Mu Wallis, become a sinner of the nation, this is how traitors are trained! ! Without national consciousness and patriotism, when the intruder is a lackey, he will not take it for granted, and will even educate the next generation of foreigners who do not expel force to enter, but instead aim at their own compatriots! Your clan has been handed down, but it will be forever engraved on China's shame list, making the world cast aside. Modern in this kind of "like Aquari II, every time I saw his owed face, I will hinking him with Obama shouting to play my mother's scene! For example, I saw Chinese figures in the anti-China demonstrations in the Philippines! ! This kind of Chinese people say that he is a piece of shit, that's a compliment to him, anyway, shit can irrigate the farmland to produce food...
Although we have not found the center of our faith, at least we have the bottom line of our faith, the nation and the country.
About flaws
The visual spoiled by the American blockbuster will question the influence of the CG effect of "Balley" on the viewing of the movie, and there are two reasons for the unreasonable logic. Please have confidence in the overall plot and let you ignore this flaw. A good script and director can Cover up these clumsiness! Not every epic masterpiece can be "Lord of the Rings" perfect!
At least it makes me remember forever - Mona Ludo!
For a Taiwanese movie, it "shocks" me too much.
