In Beijing in 1924, a young boy, Xiaodouzi, was sent to the theater by his mother and studied under the strict master Guan. The phrase ", I am a girl Jiao'e, and I am not a boy man " repeatedly practiced the lyrics, which made Xiaodouzi change from the inside. When
grows up, Xiaodouzi's specialist Gandan (a man's acting role is called "Dandan"), has become a role as he wished, and his stage name is " Cheng Dieyi " (Decorated by Leslie Cheung). A "Farewell My Concubine " made Dieyi and senior brother Duan Xiaolou (played by Zhang Fengyi) all over the capital. Just like Yu Ji who admires the overlord in the play, Dieyi's lifelong wish is but Yu Ji who has been a brother for a lifetime.
Dieyi enters the scene like this, but the senior brother Duan Xiaolou stands soberly in the mundane. The overlord on the stage has changed himself and has become a frequent visitor of the brothel below the stage.
Yuji is the real Yuji, and the overlord is the fake overlord. Straight men are a scourge to homosexuality after all.
Later, Duan Xiaolou met the prostitute Juxian (played by Gong Li) and married Juxian.
In this process, Leslie Cheung and Gong Li are in rivalry. A man and a woman compete for a man. The superficial tolerance, provocation, and psychological game are played very well by the two actors.
Dieyi was heartbroken and broke off with Duan Xiaolou.
Later during the Cultural Revolution criticism, Duan Xiaolou was dragged to a parade.
To protect himself, Duan Xiaolou slandered Dieyi as a traitor, and Cheng Dieyi reported Duan Xiaolou had married a prostitute. Duan Xiaolou was forced to draw a clear line between Juxian, who was a prostitute, and Juxian committed suicide.
After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, Xiaolou and Dieyi rehearsed again, still the " Farewell My Concubine ", but this time, Dieyi made Dieyi recognize herself, and she was completely involved in the play but was ridiculous for a lifetime and did not want to wake up. Draw a sword and sing herself, like Yu Ji, falling in blood-stained love.

z13Recommendation reason The mood and atmosphere are far more exciting than the story.
Plot introduction : "There is a kind of bird in this world that has no feet. It can only fly and fly all the time. When it is tired, it sleeps in the wind. This bird can only land once in its life, and that is when it dies. ."

What to watch: Just as a footless bird was born and died, every character in the movie is a footless bird. From the beginning, he is doomed to fail. No matter how hard he struggles, he still cannot live the life he wants.
Fortunately, in the film's inevitable fate, even if it is difficult to change the ending, every character is insisting on self-seeking, which may be the greatest encouragement to each of us.
