[Turn] Hongmen Thirty-six Oaths

The Hongmen Thirty-six Oaths                      are the first oath: After entering the Hongmen, your parents are my parents, your brothers and sisters are my brothers and sisters, your wife is my sister-in-law, and your nephew is my son and nephew. For example, if you don't recite this feeling,...

status and destination

I don't know what To Qifeng's conception was when he filmed the second part of "Underworld", but from the perspective of all-round presentation of the big pattern, it should also have a big concept. Some people compare "Underworld" with "The Godfather". In terms of structure, the two are actually...

"Underworld" - Hong Kong under the lens of Johnnie To

The literal translation of the English title is the election, the election in Hong Kong. The lines in the film refer to the mainland many times, such as visiting prostitutes in Dongguan and going to Hong Kong to have children. The most outrageous thing is that when the gang members went to...

My watch book: "Underworld 1 Years of Dragon City"

Big D's failure is not because he is cruel, but because he is not insidious enough; Ale's success is not because he is just, but because he is more scheming. The gentle and gentle gentleman who has always been in front of the audience and his subordinates, once he feels that his interests are...

"Underworld" - Order and Reconstruction of Jianghu Powers

Du Qifeng's "Underworld" describes the gangs from a larger perspective, depicting the ukiyo-e under the interests of the rivers and lakes. Compared with the previous personal grudges and hatreds, storms and rivers and lakes, the swords are quickly turned into pleasure and grudges, and the big...

forgotten plane

When I saw the film the year it was released, I really felt bad. I was stunned that no matter what the film record of that year's Academy Awards was shortlisted. I still remember that year Liang Jiahui won the Best Actor at the Academy Awards for this film. Still, the impression in my mind was...

Recommend Johnnie To's "Underworld"

If there is a society, there will be a triad. Just as there is day and there is night. Another society that is different from the government-administered society is the underworld. Jianghu is a similar concept. The difference is that there are rivers and lakes and there is not necessarily a triad....

After a lapse of two years, I watched it for the third time, only to find a lot of details

big guy in action

Ale and Da D personally went out to fight for the core circle characters (the basis of the picture below: the plot at the beginning of the film; please ask for a seat at the tea meeting; please ask the order of the roll call at the tea meeting), and both tried to insert a wedge...

black society

First of all, let me explain that this is the afterthought of the first part of "Underworld", and ignore the "Harmony is Precious", which is the continuation of the dog's tail.       There are underworld-themed works about Hong Kong movies for a long time. Since I'm a complete arthouse film lover...
