    Simple stories, complex questions

    The big red lantern hangs high I didn't expect this to be a movie that touched me so much. Women, humanity, power, life, meaning... so many questions come to my mind.  Strict hierarchy, strict rules. In the deep courtyard of the rich man's house, the masters, the first, second, third, and fourth...

    Peeping Human Nature in an Independent Kingdom

    The tone of the whole movie is closed and deserted. It is closed because the entire film has never left the Chen Family Courtyard, just like an independent kingdom that has nothing to do with the outside world; A feeling of repression that comes from stereotypes that seem to mean little. Here, the...

    Feudal society and etiquette drive crazy people

    4.5. Feudal society kills people. Everything has to be studied before it can be understood. I used to eat people in ancient times, I still remember it, but I don't know very well. I opened up the history and checked it. This history has no chronology, and the words "benevolence, righteousness and...

    Seeing "The Big Red Lantern Hanging High" from the perspective of audio-visual language

    On the screen, a large number of long lenses and fixed lenses are used for shooting. The beginning of the film is a long shot, the dialogue between Songlian and her mother, and the mother's absence from the frame also shows the isolation of the relationship between Songlian and her mother....

    Beautifully dull, restrained to numbness, the movie is a good movie

    Su Tong's original work is a gloomy Southern Gothic novel, and the movie version of the scene comes to the north, which is less humid and blurred, and more "dry" belonging to Shanxi - although, this is exactly "criticism of the old society", reflecting required by the state of man in the old...

    lingering lines

    When a concubine is a concubine, isn't that the case with women: it makes sense

    The third wife said: Although you are a reader, I am a singer. People like us are the same thing.

    What are the details worth paying attention to in "The Big Red Lantern"?

    There is one detail hidden deep. Song Lian's tragedy actually coincides with Hegel's tragic aesthetics, and Song Lian performed a whole "Antigone" by himself.

    rare movie

    The heroine is very kind, but also very sad. It is sad that she was born in such an era and met such a family. But her greatest sadness is that she cannot adapt herself to her surroundings. Some people can quickly adapt to her living environment, And enjoy it. Some people choose to ignore the...

    Red Lantern and Golden Armor

    Yesterday I re-watched Zhang Yimou's 'The Red Lanterns Are Hanging High' in 1991. I can't help but sigh for 'Golden Armor', which is now being released hotly.  Looking at the whole film of 'Red Lantern', I feel that the color of the picture is heart-burning when it is red, and it is desolate when...
