A very interesting film, but I don't agree with Tong Zirong's dubbing

First of all, we must praise the film quality of the 1974 film, which can be compared with the 2004 film.

An interesting film. Lots of scenes are hilarious. Alain Delon's handsomeness is vividly displayed in this film. The fly in the ointment is that except for the sinister and vicious colonel, all the villains are set to be fools to show Zorro's cleverness. This overly artistic character design makes people feel ridiculous and unbelievable.

The content of the entire film is actually very simple, like the simplest martial arts film in China, with a single content clue. A chivalrous person punished the bad and eliminated the evil, punished the strong and helped the weak... In the end, he led the peasant uprising (laughs!)

Alain Delon's performance was very good, Zorro's dashing and the very funny cowardice pretended to be by the pseudo-governor merged in Alan for one. I think there are such a few: Zoro "Tuning" (in fact, it is a very skillful 揍) a group of squatting soldiers headed by a fat officer; Zoro saved the heroine of the school forced by the school (forgive I never remember a foreigner's name) and was kissed on the cheek by the heroine; Zorro hid in the bushes when his "aunt"'s motorcade passed through the woods and encountered robbers and knocked all the robbers' heads unconscious; Zorro let the heroine go down After the car, the horse fell off the cliff...

The final duel between Zorro and the colonel was a little frightening. Zorro, who has always been perfect, even had a time when his strength was too weak and his opponent was forced to retreat. However, in the end, justice turned defeat into victory, which is a relatively perfect end to the film [Note].

To be honest, when I watched "Zorro", I always had the shadow of another character in my heart - He Jiajin's version of Zhan Zhao. It's just that the way they fight varies from country to country. One is witty and elegant like a western knight, and the other is the forbearance and gentleness of an eastern knight. In fact, it is also the genre of chivalry. There is one obvious difference between this film and Chinese martial arts. With the thinking of Chinese directors, it is rare to connect the all-powerful heroes with the peasant uprisings. On the other hand, it is completely out of line, and if it is reluctantly involved, it may not have the beauty of continuity.

[Note] Said "relatively perfect" because Zorro drove a long distance after killing the colonel, leaving behind a peaceful society. And the heroine who loves Zorro is full of faith and calls the masses to build a harmonious new world, and does not follow her sweetheart... 8 I believe that one day Zorro will slip back and elope with MM...

Also, the Chinese dubbing of this film (Tong Zirong, etc.) is considered to be a very vivid classic, but I started with this film No longer agree with dubbed foreign films. It is true that Chinese dubbing artists can recreate the sound art of the film, but after all, that is not the original flavor of the film. When watching this film, I listened to the passage in Chinese (Chinese) in many places, and then re-listened to the paragraph in Chinese (French), and the feeling was obviously different. The deepest impression is that Zoro hides in the heroine's garden and talks to the beautiful heroine. The relationship between the two in that section is very subtle. The emotion of Zorro's original voice is full of sincerity and firm whispers, while the Chinese dubbing is a bit..."Cynical" if it's light, and... "obscene" if it's serious...
