Feelings of watching the movie "The Heroine":
I watched another movie "Chivalrous Girl" directed by Hu Jinquan. This is an old movie. It was a work from the early 1970s. Like another movie "Empty Mountain and Spiritual Rain" directed by him, it made the mountains look beautiful. Including them, it is very beautiful. It feels like a dynamic landscape painting, and it is also like a wide-angle lens in a mobile phone, which makes people feel unobstructed. The last sentence of Du Fu's poem "Wang Yue" wrote, "I will be at the top of the mountain, and I can see the mountains and small mountains." Looking at Mr. Hu's works, I really feel like I am getting better. In addition to the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers, there are also Buddhist Daigo empowerment, perhaps these are Mr. Hu's style, inheriting the essence of Chinese civilization. This movie was released in 1970 of the last century, when the mainland was still engaged in class struggle. It was also in the 1970s in 1977. "Star Wars" was released in the United States, and Jet Li's film "Shaolin Temple" was released in the mainland until 1982. In 2019 of this century, Wu Jing's "The Wandering Earth" was released, and both martial arts and science fiction in the mainland appeared to be sluggish and powerless.
There is a poor scholar Gu Xingzhai in the movie "Chivalrous Girl". He has no way of making money on weekdays. He just writes couplets or letters to people, and sometimes he can also give people portraits. In terms of eating, he can barely maintain it. Because of poverty, he and his mother could only live in an abandoned house. The surrounding area seemed deserted, secluded and gloomy, and he did not know who the original owner of the house was. Gu's mother has been worrying about her son's marriage, and kept urging him to take the exam. As long as he has a reputation, his son can marry a wife and pass on the family to the Gu family. However, Gu Xingzhai lived a hermit life like "going all his life in troubled times, not seeking information from the princes". He read thousands of volumes, but was indifferent to fame and fortune, which was completely different from his mother's idea, whose concept was "" All things are inferior, but only a high official." Gu Xingzhai's reluctance to take the exam was related to the general environment at that time. Wei Zhongxian controlled the government, harmed the loyal and good, and attacked the upright, and those with a little conscience and sense of justice were easily envied and excluded. , where can they stand. Gu Xingzhai knew that the king could not be remonstrated and the court could not be saved. He could not deal with the chaotic ministers and thieves to the end. The persecution of the Donglin party members was evidence. And my mother is by my side.
When Yang Lian wrote a letter listing Wei Zhongxian’s 24 crimes, he was retaliated by the eunuchs and framed Yang Lian for deducting the 2 million army pay of Xiong Tingbi, and finally ended up beheaded. Comrades Shi Wenqiao and Lu Ding'an tried their best to rescue Yang Huizhen, Yang Lian's daughter, and escaped from the capital together. Yang Huizhen and the others stayed in the temple, and Huiyuan also taught Yang Huizhen some martial arts. After leaving the temple, Yang Huizhen and the others came to live in the town of Gu Xingzhai. They also lived in a dilapidated and abandoned house, so they could save the money for renting. Lu Ding'an and his son Lu Qiang deliberately pretended to be buying medicine. Shi Wenqiao They pretended to be blind and became a fortune teller, and their hiding was actually protected by the magistrate of Qingyuan County. Unexpectedly, Ouyang Nian and others followed him all the way, and asked around, but they met Gu Xingzhai very much. court. Until he met Yang Huizhen and knew that she was loyal and good, he was determined to help generously. Although they did not have the name of husband and wife, they also had the reality of husband and wife. Ouyang Nian knew that his strength was weak, so he wanted to contact Menda, the commander of Dongchang. Menda came with a large number of masters, but because he underestimated the enemy, the entire army was wiped out. Dongchang did not give up, and continued to send Xu Xianchun and his family. People came after them.
Gu Xingzhai is actually a man with aspirations and ideals. He came up with the idea of ambush to deal with Menda's group of Dongchang enemies. The next day he held a feather fan and compared himself to Zhuge at a high place, so he did not want to be an official. , he felt that treacherous officials were in power, and the building would collapse, not the time to dedicate himself. Maybe he thought that one day, he would meet a lord who was as eager for talents as Liu Bei, and he would go out to the mountains to help him and make achievements. After the Ming Dynasty was the Manchu Qing Dynasty. With Gu Xingzhai's integrity, he would not be able to take refuge in foreigners, but there were no one who took refuge in foreigners. The famous ones were Hong Chengchou, Wu Sangui, and Qian Qianyi. Here, such as Gu Yanwu, Huang Zongxi, Wang Fuzhi, etc. Sometimes changing a dynasty may not be a good thing. When I compare it with the previous dynasty, I find that the previous dynasty is still better. At least the previous dynasty did not shave hair, did not change clothes, and did not have frequent text prisons. People always don't know the future. If those dignitaries in the capital knew that Li Zicheng would brutally torture themselves, they would have given more money to Chongzhen to expand his armament. There is an old saying that once the emperor has a courtier, since the dynasties have changed, what is the use of keeping these old ministers? Those who have money will corrupt the money, and those who have no money will give their wives or daughters. When the Qing army was preparing to enter the city, didn't they shout to rob money, food, and women? No matter who changed the dynasty or the generation, adultery and looting were common.
Today, martial arts movies are considered dead, and the actors are almost all newcomers who don't understand martial arts. They have to stand in for everything, and everything has to be processed by computers, so the more they watch it, the more awkward it becomes. Like Leslie Cheung and the others, I don't think it's a martial arts movie. It only has big stars, and the lines are different, so I think it's a classic martial arts. I think Brigitte Lin's The Invincible of the East It's a classic martial arts movie. Since it is a martial arts, there is no need for fighting scenes. At least it can be understood by everyone. For example, Jackie Chan's "Drunken Fist 2" and Brigitte Lin's "New Dragon Inn", these fighting scenes can be understood by everyone. In fact, the decline of movies is sometimes self-inflicted. Hong Kong movies used to be brilliant, but some directors wanted to enter Hollywood, but they were defeated at Waterloo. When "Young and Dangerous" was released, it represented the end of shooting movies. "The Storm" The release also represents the end of martial arts films. "Young and Dangerous" is a rubbish movie, not as good as John Woo's and To Qifeng's movies. "The Storm" is also rubbish. Using computers to replace real fights is still more realistic from the actions of the older generation of Liu Jialiang and Liu Jiahui, so half of the decline of Hong Kong movies is caused by Hong Kong itself. ruined.
