"Days of Being Wild" is regarded as a classic by Hong Kong film critics
. In the history of Hong Kong film, "Days of Being Wild" has a high status. It is Wong Kar-wai's famous work, and it is also the first time Leslie Cheung has truly discovered herself and consciously used the standards of an artist to refer to it. A milestone for myself. However, for the entire Hong Kong people, "Days of Being Wild" has far-reaching significance. It was a spiritual journey about the sense of belonging and wandering of Hong Kong people
.
"Days of Being Wild" is Wong Kar-wai's representative work to reach the top of the literary film, and it is also the pioneering work of Leslie Cheung's exit from the music and cinema circles. In 1990, Leslie Cheung was invited by Wong Kar-wai to play "Days of Being Wild", thus making this one of the most outstanding films in Hong Kong film circles. In the Xu film, Leslie Cheung successfully portrayed the image of an aloof and rebellious prodigal son, and his brilliant performance made him the winner of the Hong Kong Film Awards. The monologue and solo dance of Xu Zai in the film are iconic passages in "Days of Being Wild" and one of the most classic segments in the history of Chinese film
In "Days of Being Wild", even though Leslie Cheung performed very vigorously, she still showed strong self-control, leaving plenty of room for others to play. The whole "Days of Being Wild" uses a lot of pen and ink to depict Xu Zai's sexy. The director's photography and editing, especially Leslie Cheung's own interpretation, make each lens look like a pair of admiring eyes, reflecting a Chinese film The rare sexy man. The setting of the plot of Xu Zai's "finding mother" seems to have become a ritual metaphor, and Leslie Cheung's performance happens to be a deep portrayal of this theme
.
From the perspective of the artistic contribution of the film, "Days of Being Wild" shows people a different vision, MTV-style lens language, peculiar lens trajectory, unconventional composition ratio, thick and dark colors, and Modern dialogue methods have deeply influenced Hong Kong movies, and they have also contributed to Wong Kar-wai's unique movie style. None of the characters in "Days of Being Wild" are fictitious and useless. Each character represents an emotion, and the director can handle the emotions of each character to the right degree. In other words, there is a degree of relaxation. The exaggerated ones can be interpreted as much as they want. There may be only a few short shots that should be implicit. One or two lines of dialogue that seem dispensable, but let the forbearance of emotions express vividly
