The Little Chinese Seamstres (2002), Chinese and French co-production, directed by Dai Sijie, starring Zhou Xun, Chen Kun and Liu Ye. This is an excellent film with a long-known name and a sense of age, which has won the Golden Globe Award in the United States and the Hong Kong and Taiwan Film Awards.
Zhou Xun, Chen Kun, Liu Ye, just from these three names, you can see its weight. This film is also one of the rare films in the past 20 years with the special period of the 60s and 70s as the background. To be honest, in the process of watching the movie, I was always worried that it would be a tragic ending, because at that time, it was a high probability. Fortunately, although there is a suspense at the end, after all, the three protagonists have each found their own place in life along the light.
A poor and ignorant little mountain village near the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, a rare person even graduating from primary school, a beautiful village girl who is still ignorant and illiterate, because of two educated youths and a box of stolen aftermath. The novel of Balzac, and has undergone a reborn change, and finally walked alone to the world depicted by Balzac that she yearned for.
The soundtrack of the film is beautiful, and the love between the three is as clear, hazy and simple as Mozart's sonata.
The film is not made into a film like the scar literature, but viewers can feel the poverty, poverty and absurdity of the times everywhere. Several foreign novels can become invaluable exchange of interests between people, and talking about movies has become the biggest pastime for villagers who don't even like movies. "Mozart will always love Chairman Mao" is a bitter and hilarious black humor.
