This is not Ang Lee's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon Zhu Yu is in front, but a completely different story.
Those who have seen the previous work should know that Li An is talking about "love". Some people may say that the eighth master is talking about righteousness, but I think that "Qingming Baojian" is about loneliness.
Yu Xiulian, Lone Wolf, Snow Bottle, all guard the narrow sense of loneliness, responsibility, commitment - these are also the themes of the film.
The beauty of New Zealand and the martial arts of China are indeed a combination that Hollywood can only come up with, but this feeling of being alone in the empty world can only be seen under such an aerial lens.
Ang Lee's shooting of [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon] is good, focusing on the "deep" in the small format, while Ba Ye's [Qingming Baojian] emphasizes the "broadness" in the large format.
One of the two of them wanted to fly around on the bamboo, and the other was to run around in the wilderness. The mood was completely different.
I really feel that this is different, there is no difference between good and bad.
However, the natural disadvantage of [Qingming Baojian] is that he is called [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon], so he is evaluated by Li An's set, but even so, at best, it is evaluated as "completely different from the previous work" and not As for the extremes of "going tail continued mink".
After all, New Zealand's location, Ba Ye's martial arts, and simple storylines are not too bad to match, and in fact, it is to simplify the complex - and we have to know that the road to simplicity, the rivers and lakes Ba Ye has always depicted is Such a lonely, but full of morality, the rivers and lakes are fundamentally different from Ang Lee's feelings of writing literati through the rivers and lakes.
It is worth mentioning that the soundtrack at the end of the film, Lang Lang's piano solo, is like "watching" the movie again by ear.
It's a pity that the movie hall of Dragon Dream was closed ahead of time. It was really too reckless. The audience left after the end of the feature film, and they didn't even listen to the theme song "The Last Second". It's a pity for them.
