The beautiful style, black-and-white ink-style images, and romantic stories almost perfectly interpret the beautiful love between the white snake and Xu Xian; the film focuses on how humans and demons coexist, and takes the proposition of good and evil as the starting point to interpret The past life marriage between Xu Xian and White Snake. At the same time, the "description" of the five elements and ancient music in the film vividly depicts the proposition of "past life and present life". The film cleverly puts the story line in the previous life, and revolves around the love entanglement between Xu Xian and the white snake five hundred years ago; therefore, the origin story with love as the core slowly comes into view. At the same time, the classic folk tales and legends "The Legend of the White Snake" also inadvertently has a new way of interpretation. When the marriage between the two people in the past life became "this life", the love between them that spanned thousands of years was also deeply moved.
The elements of Chinese style and Peking Opera undoubtedly pushed the theme of the film to a new level. When Xu Xuan's singing reverberated on the boat and the two boats on the river met, the beautiful pictures between the two of them were one by one. It emerges in front of us; therefore, the plot of Liu Zongyuan's "Snake Catcher's Story" has become a foreshadowing to tell a "story", and those refugees who were begging in Yongzhou were rejected by dignitaries, which not only set off the background of the times, but also made it more difficult. The protagonist's motives are evident.
The relationship between humans and demons is like the distance between mortals and gods, which can be very far or very close; just like Xu Xuan's pursuit of the white snake as always, it seems very "outrageous", but in fact it has far-reaching implications, and it seems to be just unforgettable. The love story is actually an interpretation of a spirit of selfless giving and fearlessness; at the moment of a glimpse, Xu Xuan is a pure white and clean teenager, the white snake is the best "embellishment" for him to become a teenager, and the fox demon is vivid It is the beginning of connecting the past and present life of the two. Perhaps this is the end of a beautiful love. There are no regrets, no complaints, and some are just the love that was more beautiful than the beauty of the West Lake before the encounter.
The encounter in the past life is the continuation of the legend of White Snake and Xu Xuan, the acquaintance in this life is the continuation of each other's fate, and the encounter in the future is the best "start" to realize the fate.
Personal Rating: 8.8
