do not know.
This is a film that can have too many possibilities and ductility. I only know that Zhang Yimou came to make this film, so that when people read the film review, they can’t tell whether the author has read the original book or someone who has not read the original book. . From a certain point of view, Zhang Yimou has achieved this classic in the history of Chinese films, and the peak that he cannot surpass is only in a certain point of view.
Under normal circumstances, when a film is better than the original, people who have seen the original will praise the adapted film; under normal circumstances, when a film is not better than the original, people who have seen the original will criticize the adaptation. 's video. But at least you will know which film critics are people who have seen the original book, and which film critics are people who have not seen the original book. But after watching Zhang Yimou's "Alive", and then looking at the film review, I really can't tell the difference. Zhang Yimou's compromise makes this film less dark and ironic in the original work, but also has more room to extend the original work. Alas, Laomouzi, why do you say that, after grinding the edges and corners for a long time, it is no longer so piercing, and it is still banned, don't you know, these grandchildren are covered in wounds, and a ball of cotton can make you hurt For a long time, let alone Fang Tianhuaji, who had rubbed off his sharp blade, it would be better to just raise his mace and cover his face, ridiculing him and stabbing him.
I have to say that most banned films in the world are not necessarily good films. Of course, in the eyes of most people, those cult films only cater to the special tastes of a few people, just like I will never like to eat them in my life. Like monkey brains, suckling mice, and civet cats, for most of the world's banned films and cult films, just by looking at their introductions, I have been discouraged. However, China is such a magical place. Most of the banned films in China are not cult. Instead, people are hooked after locking the door, pulling the curtain, turning off the light, and holding their breath. , "Blind Well", "Heavenly Bath", "Summer Palace", "Sunny Day", "Sora Aoi Uniform Series Exhibition", "Ozawa Maria Uncoded Complete Works", of course, "Alive" "is also like this.
Sometimes, Chinese banned films are just like the national quintessence films of neighboring countries. Before watching it, you will be fascinated by dreams, and you will be exhausted after watching it. The quintessence of neighboring countries is because you have finished watching it, you have finished venting, and you are finished, just wait for the next one-time hormone secretion, and the hormonal eruption will be enough; while the ban in China is because of the excitement and collapse after the surprise, just like the two hometowns gave me After the arranged marriage, I could only pray anxiously that I would become Amitabha if it wasn't the best sister Feng, but when I lifted the curtain of the bridal chamber, lifted off the red head cover, and saw that my new daughter-in-law was Gao Yuanyuan, my heart beat with excitement. Unbalanced, sweating on the head, unable to speak, can only rest first.
When the two-dimensional text becomes the three-dimensional image, when the originally imagined pictures appear vividly in front of us, when desperate persuasion, rude scolding, pleasant laughter, plain wind, and frustrated Qinqiang, all From watching to listening, the rudeness is even more rude, and the surprise is even more surprising. Zhang Yimou used his solid foundation and sense of responsibility for China and the original work to complete this film. If it weren't for those compromises, I don't know if it would have defeated Pulp Fiction and won the Palme d'Or.
It doesn't matter whether it won the grand prize or not, because the words "banned film in China" have already given this film the most gorgeous coat, and it is destined to be immortal.
