When the dust is about to settle, calm down, I want to seriously write a review for this film (Part 1) The Legend of Feminine Perspective. My personal first reaction after watching the full movie was actually "As a girl, I really wish I could see such a movie when I was a kid". Obviously thanks to the fact that director Nikki is also a woman, the narrative method and lens language with a prominent female perspective are used throughout the film to tell us this well-known legend, and even a breakthrough show. It has a broad and compassionate feeling of "I have known the universe, but especially the grass and trees are green". In a theme with war as the main line, her focus is not on a certain majestic battle, the splendid fight waiting for me, the thrill of a dynasty building will fall and be saved; her camera is aimed at a soldier , and the inner growth of a soldier whose gender is female. In the beginning, the recklessness for the family, the stubbornness of not admitting defeat, the inferiority of being a woman, the shame of not recognizing the identity of women, in the end, being loyal to yourself, being brave to face yourself, throwing aside the bondage and serving the country, and the loyalty and courage throughout the whole chapter. ,real. This is not something new from Western values, but more like the highlight of the Confucian tradition of "self-cultivation, balancing the family, governing the country and the world" on women. This is very, very rare in movies with war as the background. After all, "war makes women go away" seems to be some kind of golden rule. Women in war movies are often gentle nurses, charming soldiers, or eternal waiting. The beautiful widow, and of course the spies who use their beauty as a gimmick (this point must be praised for many anti-Japanese film and television works in our country, which have created many resolute and brave female guerrillas and underground dang) Mulan is an exception. She was a warrior who shaped the whole war. She was able to save the entire dynasty, neither because she acted like a man, nor because she was a woman, nor because she was the "chosen one" with vitality (this is probably understood as the internal force in martial arts films, but Dong The existence of the general and the witch proves that Mulan did not succeed because of this) but because of her "loyalty, courage, and sincerity", because she has a sword in her hand, a flower in her heart, and she can carry the country and the world on her shoulders. This idea permeates the entire film.
