I never realized that this film was so fascinating and intoxicating. Not long ago, I saw a foreign director say that "A Chinese Ghost Story" is one of the most beautiful movies he has ever seen. I don't really believe it, and I was in a bad mood tonight, so I chose this movie to watch. This oriental magical love film is full of magnificence, sorrow, lingering, poignant but also masculine, humorous and heroic. These seemingly irrelevant elements are actually seamlessly integrated. The narration of such a short but unforgettable human-ghost love story is heart-wrenching, and the lingering voice is endless. The colors of the film are either soft, cold, or warm, and they are all arranged just right. It can be said that every scene is a classic picture that makes people linger. The antique picture that blows at the face really makes people feel like they are in the scene and hear the sound. And the shaping of the characters is not overshadowed by such beautiful scenery, but goes to a higher level, all of which are lifelike and full of flesh and blood. In particular, the three protagonists played their roles to the fullest. Zhang Guorong's Ning Caichen, a scholar, has no power to tie a chicken, and is timid by nature. But after falling in love at first sight, his pursuit of love was unswerving, and his dedication and loyalty were touching. In the end, he was even willing to give up his own life in exchange for Xiaoqian's afterlife, which can make lovers in the world sigh. . Wang Zuxian's Nie Xiaoqian is fresh and refined, like a hibiscus emerging from water, with fluttering long hair, fluttering clothes, bright eyes, bright teeth and red lips, that frown and smile are so captivating. I think this is not only Wang Zuxian's most classic, Also the most beautiful character. She couldn't help herself, so she could only murder the lecherous person with the coquettish state of the country. But the kindness, honesty, and handsome Ning Caichen's heart like a mirror made her fascinated, and she soon indulged in such an impossible love and couldn't extricate herself. However, in the tender and lingering love, she is no longer a weak woman, she dares to fight, she is smart and brave, and she will do everything for love. Originally, such a scene of an idiot man and a woman's life and death love, suddenly walked into Yan Chixia, who was full of beards and a voice like thunder, without the slightest tenderness and sweetness. However, "things backfired", Wu Ma The Yan Chixia, masculine and upright, hates evil as enmity, draws a sword to help when Lu Jian is injustice, and will never join forces with worldly people in her life, and swears against evil forces. In addition, the director also added a lot of humorous scenes to him. When he was hilarious, some truths were also enlightening and thought-provoking. Especially when Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian parted ways forever, his wiping tears when he turned his face, showed even more iron-boned tenderness. In the film, some scenes are enough to make people memorable. Especially the beginning of Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian The three scenes of encounter, deep love, and farewell are truly brilliant, and they are amazing. The first time we met, the pavilion on the water, the night was sultry, the sound of the piano curled, and the lights flickered. Nie Xiaoqian originally chose this good day to lure lechers, and set up this beautiful scene. Unexpectedly, she met a scholar with a pure heart. After he jumped into the cold water regardless of his body, her heart melted in an instant, and Ning Caichen was also fascinated by Nie Xiaoqian's beauty, tenderness and fascination. The fire of love is burning all over the sky at this moment. Deep in love, it was still the pavilion on the water, the night was dark, the rain was pouring, Ning Caichen's wet clothes, and the hazy eyes of love made Nie Xiaoqian completely melted, Luo Chang relaxed, her skin was tightly clinging, a cloud of Wushan cloud and rain, this Who wants to wake up from the tender sleep of ecstasy. It was still raining outside the pavilion, but the people inside the pavilion had long forgotten all this and were deeply drunk. Farewell, dilapidated hut, return from struggle, blood and pain all over, but the time left for the lovers is very short. The sun suddenly entered, Ning Caichen held on to the injured body and blocked the sun, so that Nie Xiaoqian's soul would not be dissipated. This deep-seated but heart-breaking farewell deeply shattered two tightly interdependent hearts. Yan Chixia's wiping tears at the turn of her face is the best explanation for this sadness and lingering love between humans and ghosts. This poignant beauty is truly heart-wrenching and tears. This is an outstanding classic that was born in the golden age of Hong Kong cinema and is well received at home and abroad. However, as the tide rises, there must be an ebb and flow, and such masterpieces are now hard to find in Hong Kong movies. Of course, to produce great works one after another requires a combination of many factors, and the reasons for this are very complicated and cannot be explained in a single word.
