A collection of movies, the thirteen hairpins

Yan Geling's "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" is divided into two parts: novel and long. I haven't read the long-length version that Yan Geling supplemented and revised later, but the medium-length version has been read in general. Compared with the original novel, the content of the film has changed a lot. Father Ingman, who is very important in the novel, disappeared at the beginning of the film, and was replaced by the undertaker played by Bell. Yumo was originally the third party who kidnapped Shujuan's father, and other content has also been subtracted and changed here.
A script is a good script. It's a pity that the movie didn't bring me the sense of disappointment I had when I read the novel.
Yumo is described in the novel as follows: "She is not the kind of gorgeous woman, but she is very attractive, and she does not have the attitude of being self-deprecating or breaking the pot. The girls and Adonado gave her a moment, and they forgot that she was A dusty woman with a low status." But in the movie, from the beginning of Yu Mo's appearance to the moment of flirting with Bell, he always gave me a soft and pretentious energy, I really couldn't see that Yu Mo was self-deprecating, but It's a bit overkill, and it's too high. Moreover, the heroine is completely uncharacteristic, giving people the impression that Tang Wei is 3 points, Jiang Yiyan is 2 points, and Sun Li is still 1 point in an instant. If it wasn't for her makeup, costumes, and plot highlighting her, she would be no different from the rest of the Jinling Twelve Hairpins. I personally think that the other girls, whoever they choose, can perform this taste.
The mortuary master played by Bell, who started out as a "blessed" and "second-rate", loves money as well as beauty. However, after witnessing the Japanese soldiers attacking the girl in the church, the atmosphere of the environment ignited a strong sense of responsibility and mission, so he decisively assumed the role of priest. He has successfully risen from a humble mortuary to the level of a "priest". Bell's role is more like a third-party reflector. During the Sino-Japanese war and the Nanjing Massacre, he appeared as a third party. Through his catastrophe-like experience, he makes people reflect on human nature. His doubts in the film: "Everyone is said to be equal, but why do prostitutes replace students?" (probably this) is also a question that readers and viewers think about, and it is the only one that can elevate the overall thinking of the film. question.
The female student Shu Juan gives a good impression, except that she looks a bit like Yang Zi from a family with children, everything else is good, and her little eyes are very impressive.
After talking about the characters, let’s talk about the colors. The colorful glass in the church, the heavy makeup of the prostitutes, the cheongsam jewelry. All add a touch of color to this hazy war. Therefore, many people say that there is a shadow of "Schindler's List" in it, because everyone unconsciously thinks of the little girl in Schindlerian's red. There are many shadows of other movies in the movie, such as the obvious "Nanjing Nanjing" + "Assembly" in the first half. The part of the Japanese officer playing the piano is "The Pianist". With so many small details sandwiched together, it is simply a collection of movies.
In the war part of the first half of the movie, the special effects of war are contrived and exaggerated. One after another, the soldiers stood in front of each other to block the eye-catching, and the two sections of the colored paper flying in the building were such a failure!
In the second half of the emotional transition, this feeling is incited. I heard people around me wake up and snot one after another, but I just couldn't cry. But there is still something I like more, that is the song "Qinhuai Scenery".
Alright, let's go here. There is no logic in the article regardless of the front and back, and it is messy to think about where is where. So be it.

PS: This is not the first Thirteen Hairpins. In the past, Han Sanping made a film called "Refuge", which was also based on the novel "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" as the blueprint for the film. That one is the Thirteen Changes and Three Hairpins, which basically keeps the trend of the novel. Except that it is a little longer, I think it is more original than Laomouzi's, and the blank at the end is better than "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling".

Another spit

1. I don’t think a prostitute needs to be naked to be a prostitute! ! Besides, the women of Qinhuaihe not only sell themselves but also show off their arts, and they are still somewhat elegant. No need to show around in underwear and pajamas! !
2. Look at Zhang Yimou's girl seeking girl! ! The Red Lantern Gong Li, Happy Times Dong Jie, my father and mother Zhang Ziyi, Hawthorn Zhou Dongyu, and Jinling Thirteen Hairpin actresses are all over 25 in average age. ! Therefore, Zhang Yimou must be a girl control! !
