Recently, I revisited "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" starring Jet Li in 1993. In a blink of an eye, more than 20 years have passed, and the small fresh meat of the year has become the old bacon. Fortunately, the feelings are still there, and the emotions are still there. Looking at it many years ago, I felt that the plot was a little thin, that is, it was a story about eliminating violence and peace, mainly to see how Yuan Heping and Jet Li showed the characteristics of Taijiquan's attack and restraint. But life is so amazing. Different people with the same things, at different times of the same person, will have completely different feelings and experiences. The vicissitudes of life may never change, but the mood is like a sea of waves and strange, changing from time to time.
In the movie, Jun Bao played by Jet Li and Michelle Yeoh played Qiu Xue, their fates are actually similar. Qiu Xue Qianli searched for her husband to the capital, only to find that her husband had been married to an official family. Because of this, he was hit hard, and he used wine to drown his sorrows all day long. And Junbao was betrayed by his brother and killed his friend, so he couldn't bear the huge stimulation and eventually became crazy. When Jun Bao slapped Qiu Xue up and told her that the past was a life experience, not a burden; Qiu Xue took good care of Jun Bao. It is time for Junbao to let go of the burden and run towards a new life. They both achieve their own redemption through each other. The relationship is sad, maybe it started from the moment I stared at it, but I don't know when it has been lost. After the snow and the moon, the cuteness cannot be left, and the wound can only be decorated with the past. The person you love is deeply hurt, but it is the power to be reborn from the person who has never met by chance, and the lost is the elm of the elm. In this sense, it can be regarded as the most fortunate in life, and it is enough to be comforted.
The reason why Hong Kong martial arts movies in the 1990s looked good, I think the producers consciously integrated into the traditional Chinese aesthetic pursuit. In line with the Chinese aesthetic taste and habits. Like the New Dragon Inn, A Chinese Ghost Story, and Iron Horse Liu. Including the character of the character, which is essentially different from the Hollywood hero. For example, in this film, Tianbao and Junbao were expelled from Shaolin because of the unfair treatment of Shaolin Temple. Tianbao wanted to change his life, and finally went to the government, selling his brother for promotion and making a fortune. And Junbao is kind-hearted, and after earning some money from performing arts, he just wants to have a good meal tomorrow and is satisfied. When the cockroach they slept on the floor of the inn crawled over, Jun Bao was already immersed in a sweet dream, Tian Bao secretly made up his mind to stand out, not to sleep on the floor for the rest of his life. For all kinds of injustices in society, Tianbao resisted strongly from the beginning. However, once he found that his own strength was not enough to resist, he quickly accepted this injustice, and then became an accomplice of this unfair system, in order to achieve prosperity. Junbao was passive, Tianbao asked him to call him Shige, he called him Shige, and was driven out of Shaolin by Tianbao. But Tianbao turned to the government to suppress the people, but he took the initiative to withdraw. This is exactly the ideal personality in traditional culture to do something and not to do something. It will not lose itself because of life circumstances. These can be found in Confucianism and Taoism, the origin of Chinese philosophy of existence.
The end of the film is also unconventional. When Qiu Xue asked Jun Bao if we would meet again in the future, Jun Bao said, let's go with the fate, go on horseback and disappear into the distance of the setting sun, how to forget each other in the rivers and lakes. After the snow and the moon, the cuteness cannot be left.
