My favorite Indian movie so far is Ashoka. Of course, there are also "Three Silly Bollywood" and "Bollywood Life and Death" (the name is so bad that I almost missed this movie), and one of my favorite old movies is "Caravan" ". As for the well-known "Slumdog Millionaire", it is entirely a Hollywood production, not entirely an Indian movie.
In fact, I do not reject the addition of splendid singing and dancing elements to the film. One of the advantages of musical films is that they can use music to intuitively shape the characters, express the psychological activities of the characters and promote the plot, which cannot be achieved by other types of films. Of course, like the Indian movies of the 90s, it is too extreme to add a lot of singing and dancing elements to slow down the plot for no reason.
This movie is translated as "Fearless Heart", I don't know if it is the real Chinese translation. The plot of this movie is very good. Even if such a script is sold to Hollywood, it will not be a problem. The suspense is set wonderfully, and the plot progresses layer by layer. The actors in this movie are also very good, the actress is very beautiful, the acting is also very good, the performance is natural and smooth without being stiff, when she was crying to Sari, she was really sad when she saw it and heard it.
According to the standards of the Hollywood film industry, this is a very good film. If there is anything wrong, it is probably that the editing of some clips is a bit strange, which does not affect the quality of the film.
However, why does this story, which is filmed by an Indian director and an Indian actor, take place in India without any Indian characteristics? There is no singing and dancing, not even a song that expresses the psychology of the protagonist, and even the soundtrack is quite standard and featureless. Don't Indians like music very much? Not to mention that there are any strong color pictures in the film, even when expressing traditional Indian festivals, the director did not dye any rich and strong colors for this lively festival. The colors of the whole film are so dull and have no Indian characteristics. . Although there are traditional Indian festivals at the end of the film, people carry their grandfathers on a parade, and women smear Zhusha on the faces of every passing woman to express their blessings... But why do I think this is just an Indian festival in the eyes of foreign tourists? The heroine who is looking for her husband for thousands of miles can be replaced by a foreigner with blonde hair and blue eyes or a Chinese with peaceful facial features. Anyway, the heroine does not seem to know much about the culture of her own country, and most of it is heard from her husband. Even when she came out I doubted she could speak Indian. Well, she is an Indian who returned from New York to find her husband, most likely Banana.
I often see some comments saying that Chinese film studies learn from Hollywood films or something. I think the films of each country have their own characteristics. For example, when it comes to French films, romance comes to mind, British films come to classical, and Indian films come to mind. From my point of view, although the quality of some Chinese films needs to be improved, there is no such thing as imitating Hollywood's style. If you study carefully, you will lose all the excellent aspects of Chinese films.
