"Don’t ask about the West" shows its ingenious works on Baodao to boost cross-strait film exchanges

1905 movie network news It has been successfully screened in Paris and Cannes, and it was launched on the Internet in a high-profile way last week. Recently, a series of big-action "Nothing to Ask about the West and East" was launched, with Taiwan Province as the last stop in May, offering a feast for the audience across the Taiwan Strait. As the opening film of the 10th Cross-Strait Film Exhibition, four actors, Huang Xiaoming, Wang Leehom, Han Tongsheng and Zheng Zheng, took the lead in making their debut on May 30th. Tickets before the screening were spiked and praised as "poetic beauty", and "No Questions, West and East" vividly explained the cultural continuity between the two sides of the strait and helped cross-strait films to communicate in depth.

 

"Don’t Ask West East" seamlessly fits the tastes of audiences on both sides of the strait, and "captures" the Taiwan Province media.

 

Knowing that "No Questions, West and East" will be unveiled at the 10th Cross-Strait Film Exhibition at the end of this month, local Taipei residents planned their ticket grabbing strategies early, and the film sold out as soon as it was invoiced, which shows the influence of this annual masterpiece directed by Li Fangfang in the Chinese film industry. On the day of the screening, the Huashan Film Museum in Taipei was packed, and a 138-minute reminiscence journey led the audience back to the young man’s lofty years of sharing weal and woe. At the end of the movie, local media praised the film "with retro feelings in one go, and" Nothing to Ask West and East "gave people hope." Jamie Chang, a reporter who has studied mainland films for many years, expressed his feelings: "With the introduction of cross-strait film festivals, I finally saw this film that has been rumored for six years. The conclusion is that I like it very much. I can see many angles that I prefer. "

 

After the screening, the famous local media released a film feature to pay tribute, saying that director Li Fangfang "buckled the proposition of Tsinghua’s centenary celebration, followed these Tsinghua figures, and presented several fragments of China’s centenary history. More deeply, it told you what it meant to be’ without asking about the West’." This paper introduces in more detail how to make careful textual research in the film preparation stage, as well as the film’s exploration of human nature and the question of "the values that you and I may face in the past and future"

Similar reputations can still be found in social accounts of many comment media, and they affirmed the outstanding features of "Nothing to Ask about the West" in terms of conception, pattern and performance. Zhang Zheming, a local reporter, said: "There is no question about the West and East, and both of them have retro feelings in one go. But the difference is that "Fanghua" finally ends with a tragic cross-examination; "Don’t Ask West East" gives hope. This is a wonderful film with overall performance, and it is a sincere work with good intentions and poetic beauty. "

 

Huang Xiaoming’s Wang Leehom exhibition tells the truth, and cross-strait film exchanges have gained a lot.

 

The Zhuo Yuequn drama presented in "Don’t Ask about the West" won the audience’s praise again and again, which also made the film starring Huang Xiaoming, Wang Leehom, Han Tongsheng and Zheng Zheng gain applause. When asked by the audience what is true, Huang Xiaoming said with emotion: "The reason why President Mei in the play pays attention to Wu Linglan is to see that he doesn’t choose science with his true mind. Now, at the age of 40, I also hope to make a film and television work that is sentimental, meaningful and rewarding for everyone. That’s why I chose to rest and face my true self. " Wang Leehom said: "All the thoughts of Shen Guangyao’s role are consistent with the cells. I think it is true when a person is confident and goes all out towards the goal of life."

In addition, Wang Leehom also revealed that after reading the script for the first time, her mother suggested that she take the film herself, and called on the media to exert their strength on the spot to let "Nothing Ask West East" meet more Taiwan Province audiences as soon as possible. For the understanding of "truth", Zheng Zheng interprets it from the standpoint of Shu Fen in the film: "I think it is to follow my heart and keep my promise. When Liu Shufen married her husband, she kept her marriage agreement. When this agreement was broken, her despair made her fight to the death and step into the well. I think this is the truth of Liu Shufen. " Han Tongsheng, who plays Robert in the film, shared humorously: "In modern society, there are always people like Robert who disregard the interests of others for their own sake. I hate such people and hope that everyone will not become like this. "

 

Ten cross-strait film exhibitions have been held so far, aiming at expanding the influence of cross-strait films through film screening and cross-strait film scholars’ forum exchanges, and at the same time providing audiences with opportunities to learn more about cross-strait films and cultures. The film "Nothing to Ask about the West" expresses the national spirit, gently praises the scholar’s spirit, and enthusiastically praises the self-seeking, so that the vicissitudes of a hundred years come into view like a fleeting glimpse, which is the affectionate sustenance of the next generation of intellectuals for their home country and national backbone. With the screening of "Nothing to Ask about the West" in Taiwan Province, filmmakers on both sides of the Taiwan Strait can have a wider discussion and mutual assistance on China films, thus enhancing the understanding of people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait in the cultural field.
