Sammo Hung we usually see is mostly a kung fu master with mighty temperament,
or funny and funny images in comedy films
, but the editor wants to do it today Everyone brings a film that is different from Sammo Hung's previous image-"Eight Two Golds". In this film, Sammo Hung changed from the sturdy image of
and played a low-level character who was not good at expressing but affectionate.
And in this movie there is also Zhang Aijia who was tender at the time.
"Eight Two Golds" is one of the immigration trilogy directed by Hong Kong director Zhang Wanting. It was released in Hong Kong in 1989.
This film won eight nominations at the 9th Hong Kong Film Awards in one go, which shows the quality of the
movie.
This film tells the story of the monkey played by Sammo Hung who smuggled to the United States from his hometown of Taishan, Shantou, without saying a word during the Cultural Revolution, and vowed never to return to China. For 16 years, monkeys with no skill can only work hard as taxi drivers, but the savings they have saved are pitiful. Unable to endure the pain of homesickness, when he made up his mind to return to his hometown, he borrowed gold watches and gold necklaces from his partners, and bought big and small gadgets to show off at home. The monkey at home found that his parents had accompanied the little girl to the countryside to steal a second child, which was not allowed by the policy. He and his playmate of the year, the future husband, opened a restaurant in New York’s Chinatown, and will return to the countryside with Wuzuipo, who will take her to the United States in the spring of next year. When I just met my father, the father and son did not dare to recognize each other. In 16 years, they have changed too much. The editor of
especially likes a line of this film. Apart from his parents, the monkey who has been away from home for 16 years can not let go of the pet dog snatching with his sister the day he left home.
Monkey: Sister, do you remember? On the day I left home, I grabbed flowers with you (pet dog) and scolded you. Sister
: Are you there? I don’t remember
Monkey: Really, I even scolded you and cried. Sister
: I really don’t remember, what's wrong?
Monkey: Nothing in this line of
. I grasped the details to highlight the wanderer who had been away from home for a few years. The most unforgettable thing was that he hurt his sister once, which made him feel guilty for 16 years. And my sister forgot about it early. It can be seen that the director's precise perception of the impermanence of the world. The second half of the
film is about the monkey and Wuzuipo's process from getting along to knowing each other to mutual affection. Wuzuipo found a Chinese husband who opened a restaurant in the United States, but she gradually realized that she was not real when she got along with monkeys. Knowing what she wants, she gradually stopped mentioning her American dream, but her future path has been forged, and the monkey has also started a blind date journey under the arrangement of her parents. The saddest part of the film is Wuzui Po When he got married, the monkey personally came to him in a car to give him his marriage. The pain of loving each other but difficult to express was vividly expressed by the director and actors.
Finally, it is necessary to mention that the classic "Ship Song" is the theme song of this film.
