Face-changing and decaying, accompanied by that hateful era, the era in "Precept". I finished watching "Face Change" tonight. It is an old film from 1995. This film was added to the list of want to watch a year ago, probably because of the good reviews. But life is really busy, and inadvertently, more than a year has passed. One night more than ten days ago, I was going to watch this film. I didn’t want to be called by the boss after only six minutes of watching it. It was nearly eleven o’clock when I came back, so I had to give up. I watched it again last Friday, and felt that the picture quality was too bad, so I searched everywhere and finally found the high-definition version and downloaded it. The plot of the film is very simple: the face-changing king is in his 60s or 70s, but he has no children and wants a man to inherit the stunt of face-changing. Finally, I spent five yuan to buy a grandson, calling it a dog baby. I don't want the old Jianghu to be deceived by the rivers and lakes. This dog baby turned out to be a girl, and the stunt is "passed on from male to female". The face-changing king wanted to drive her away, but he finally moved with compassion. One day, Gouwa accidentally set the boat on fire, and the whole boat was burned to the ground, so the face-changing king drove her away. Gouwa was captured by the traffickers again. Taking advantage of the night, Gouwa fled from the house with another kidnapped boy, Tianci. She gave Tianci to the face-changing king. Unfortunately, this Tianci belonged to the Wen family, so the face-changing king was arrested, and more than a dozen cases of child abduction were added to him, and the case was closed. Gouwa asks Guanyin to live to save the face-changing king, but the local case teacher can't intervene, and he can't do anything. Gouwa finally imitated Guanyin to save his father, cut off the rope, and live Guanyin caught her and carried her away. At this time, Gouwa's life and death is unknown. I thought the movie would end in this back. However, the plot continued, the teacher intervened, the face-changing king was saved, and the dog baby was learning unique skills. It may also be that I didn't watch it carefully enough. The film did not explain the specific location and era of the story, but only knew that it was in Shu during the Republic of China. At that time and place, there were the Wen family, the police, the military lord, the traffickers, the actors, the sons and daughters, the godsend, and the dog babies... The Wen family's godsend was sold, and the police were able to retrieve it after all. It came, but there is only one gift from heaven, and there are thousands of dog babies all over the land, but the world people follow the writers and say that human traffickers are the source of social evil. This film is not long, but it shows the face of old China incisively and vividly, although it is a side view. Actually, in my opinion, the theme of "Changing Faces" is no successor to the unique skill of "Changing Faces"? How can it be "the world is hot and cold" and "true love"? Once upon a time, the Republic of China that some people wanted to return to in the "prosperous age of literati" was naturally not the Republic of China in "Change of Face", but also the Republic of China in "Change of Face", which was overthrown by teachers led by the people. come back now Looking at it, the history of the past 100 years is condensed into one sentence - long live the teachers, and this film is the most vivid portrayal of these four words. 2021.12.30
