It was a movie 20 years ago, and the reason why I still insist on leaving ink marks is not only that she is my all-time favorite movie, but also a classic that is hard to surpass. I admire how Old Monster Xu connected Linghu Chong and Dongfang Invincible emotionally. He was so creative. Lin Qingxia also yin and yang played a man so charming, and the encounter with Linghu Chong was amazing as soon as she appeared on the stage. Can't resist her beauty. In addition to Brigitte Lin's own skills, the entire team is also indispensable. The classic scene of the decisive battle at Heimuya, how can Linghu Chong believe that this charming and charming soul in front of him will be a man in a bloodbath nightclub. When Linghu Chong hugged her desperately and was willing to go to Huangquan with her, a burst of blood filled my whole body. Before I could react, Dongfang Invincible pushed Linghu Chong up with all his strength. No words can express my inner surging. Dongfang Invincible's thoughts at that time were explained in "The Rising Swordsman III", Commander Huchong is the person she admires the most, and she doesn't want to die in front of him and so on (this is what I remember, friends who are interested can research and verify it. correct me). How did the editor think of this scene? After that, the stories of Dongfang Invincible and Linghu Chong were constantly remade by TV dramas from all over the world. At the same time, there are also similar stories copying this bridge, which is absolutely amazing. In this scene, Brigitte Lin didn't say a single line, it all depended on her body and eyes. The eyes performed by Jet Li and Brigitte Lin were called love.
After that, neither similar repertoires nor remakes of the original name have been able to surpass this version, neither the actors nor the overall repertoire.
The only regret is that at that time, Hong Kong movies were in full bloom and a hundred flowers were blooming. When this movie participated in the 12th Hong Kong Film Awards, it only took home Zhang Shuping's best costume design, and many other nominations were all lost, including Brigitte Lin's Best Actress. It was Maggie Cheung's "Ruan Lingyu" that took away the award at the time. This is also a rare good show, and Maggie Cheung is naturally well-deserved. Although Brigitte Lin failed to win the award with this classic, she is already an uncrowned actress. She only lamented that she was born at the wrong time. If it were changed to today, I don't know how many awards this play has won. Interested friends can take a look at the nominated films in that session: "Ruan Lingyu", "Cage People", "Once Upon a Time in Man", "New Dragon Inn", "Dead Judge" and other classics, then The fans of the time are really lucky. It is not easy to be recognized as a classic. It is good to have an award. Without an award, it will not affect your stay in my heart. This drama is just like the title - East Invincible.
