On the other hand, I am most afraid of using my brain, and I am too lazy to think about superfluous things when watching a movie. In a movie, if the telling of the story is intuitive (that is, without thinking), and there are no logical loopholes that can be seen without thinking, then I am willing to accept the story; and then feel what the story has to say. My point was that if the story doesn't make sense in the first place, it shouldn't be a good movie. It's hard for me to imagine such an evaluation: third-rate script, first-rate director and actors.
But "Blood" helped me establish a new perspective: Good movies can have unconscionable stories.
When I first watched it, it was regarded as the most ordinary Hong Kong film, because the beginning was a bit abrupt and the picture was ordinary; I was shocked when I saw Chow Yun-fat sitting alone by the riverside with the music playing, and I was shocked: such a full-fledged film, it should be worthy of the highest evaluation. The more I went on, the more I felt that I didn't expect nothing in vain: it turns out that a good director and a good actor can actually interpret such an unreasonable story and a slightly unreasonable role in such a freehand and satisfactory performance. Although Chow Yun-fat is calm, unrestrained, and full of heroic spirit; the story of the film is also like flowing clouds and flowing water, which is very beautiful. The whole film is very rhythmic, not in a hurry, but full of strength; just like Chow Yun-fat, always with a warm smile in the blood and rain, lifting weights lightly.
It is rare to praise Li Xiuxian again for not falling behind with Chow Yun-fat.
Although the beginning was abrupt, the ending ended very quickly, balancing the beginning.
Which famous person said that it is best to read novels after adulthood, because when I was young, I couldn't understand the imitation of society in the book, which is a pity for the classics. I checked the aftermath of the "Blood Two Heroes", and most of them are mixed with the taste of nostalgic youth feelings of the past. Before I graduated from college, I seldom watched movies and TV. Now I watch this classic film for the first time, without nostalgia, but also lamenting the era of heroes.
