Only Tsui Hark shot, this genius did not become a laughing stock

In the film and television industry, "remaking those things" is really hard to describe.


If you are not careful, you will make a joke and become a laughing stock.


But nowadays, when remakes are rampant and the works are uneven, there is one person who can be said to be the originator and master of the remake industry.


He is a genius Tsui Hark .


No matter how classic the story is, as long as it falls into his hands, he can immediately innovate and recreate the classic.


Four Chinese folk love stories, he has made two classics.


One "Green Snake", the other is --


" Liang Zhu"



Liang Zhu's story is well known to every household. As we all know, the more familiar the story, the harder it is to shoot.


But Tsui Hark is good at shooting this, breaks everyone's cognition and completely subverts the traditional .


In this edition of "The Liang Zhu", he took a different approach, and Zhu Yingtai is no longer a lady who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.


is a lively student who knows nothing.


She doesn't even look like a girl when she walks, she has to tie a rope to her feet to become a lady.



The reason why she was sent to the academy by her parents was because her father ordered her a marriage.


asked her to marry Ma Wencai of the third-rank official's family. The Ma family has a great business, and there are relatives among the emperor's concubines, so Zhu Yingtai's father thought that if his daughter married into the Ma family.


himself can be included in the list of royal relatives.


But helpless, his daughter Yingtai is really naughty and can't do it. He is afraid that it will be rude to marry Ma Wen with her current appearance.


then let her disguise as a man and go to the academy to study for three years, and then come back to marry.



As everyone knows, this time away from home, her fate has been completely rewritten.


opened the curtain of the sedan chair, she looked outside with longing, full of curiosity and anticipation.



Indeed, the outside world is wonderful.


In the academy, she met Liang Shanbo, and the two hit it off, and they got to know each other very well.


You must know that Wu Qilong, and Yang Caini, who played the protagonists that year, were only 24 years old, 20 years old, just in line with the elegant teenagers and slender girls in the play.


The two starred in their true colors. Now it seems that the time in the academy is like a campus romantic comedy.


is full of youthfulness and innocence.



Liang Shanbo also took Yingtai to Houshan to meet his old friend.


He is a monk with the name "Ruoxu", who lives in seclusion in the back mountain of the academy all the year round.


It turns out that he also fell in love with a woman disguised as a man in this academy, but he died without a problem.


Coincidentally, this woman is Zhu Yingtai's mother.


Although she didn't say anything, she only said that this woman is very rich now, but all this was seen by the monks.



Later, when Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai were forcibly separated by their parents, the monk went to Zhu's house to persuade him. He said to Mrs. Zhu, his first love girlfriend, Zhu Yingtai's biological mother:


Mrs. Zhu, in this pool fish you should release. The implication of


is to let these two children go to pursue freedom.



I wish mother no, she replied:


let them out, they will die if they can't adapt to the bad environment outside.


You are so cool!


If you can put it down, you won't become a monk!



In her opinion, what she chose for her daughter was the surefire way to survive.


Because of what my daughter is going through now, I have experienced it myself.


She has already seen through the truth of this world, and what she said when she persuaded Liang Shanbo to break up with her daughter is still realistic in modern times.


Do you think anger can change the fate of Yingtai?

You think you are very dissatisfied with the Hu people, so you will tolerate the Han people in the south?

If you want to complain, you are born in the wrong place, born in this time when our Han Dynasty is declining.

Everyone is so hypocritical, pedantic and snobbish.

If you want to complain, you have too many ideas. If you are young and ignorant and think you don't like it, you can change the people around you.

thought you two could change this era.



Yes, these are times that are powerless to change.


Since ancient times, marriage has always been about the right match, Zhumen for Zhumen, zhumen, for bamboos.


From the very beginning, Zhu Yingtai's father sent her to the academy to study in order to use his daughter's marriage to cling to the more powerful Ma family.


He even has a clan kinship list in his hand. Only the families on this list can marry each other and stabilize the noble status.



Ordinary poor people who are not on the list will never be able to step into this class for a lifetime.


Even if Liang Shanbo became the local magistrate after he succeeded in the examination, Zhu's father would still dare to let his servants beat him to death without hesitation.


"He has no noble relatives, no power, so what is he afraid of?"



Just like that, Liang Shanbo was beaten to death by the Zhufu, and was thrown out the door in the heavy rain, and when he murmured in the heavy rain, "I am the county magistrate here," he is the parental official here.


No one cares about him.



Yes, people are so realistic, and officials are divided into big and small.


From the very beginning, wishing his father to marry Yingtai to the Ma family has laid the tragic background of the film.


In people's impression, "Liang Zhu" seems to be about the love triangle between Liang Shanbo, Zhu Yingtai and Ma Wencai.


But in this film, Director Tsui Hark did not take the role of Ma Wencai at all.


It doesn't matter who Marvin is.


Liang Zhu's love tragedy has always been confined by the class and ideology of that era.


When she learned of the death of her beloved, Yingtai was overwhelmed with tears.



On the way to marry the Ma family, Yingtai jumped out of the sedan chair when she passed by Liang Shanbo's grave.


She took off her red wedding dress outside, revealing the white mourning dress she had already prepared inside.



wrote his name on Shanbo's tombstone, the wind was blowing, Shanbo's grave opened, and Yingtai jumped in resolutely.


The grave closes and it's like nothing happened.



can't live in the same quilt, die in the same hole.


Finally, two butterflies flew away from Monk Ruoxu's palm.


As we all know, the film uses a butterfly as a metaphor for Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai: they are finally free.


Li Bihua once said:


"There is only one pair of Liang Zhu turned butterflies out of 10 million people. Others only turn into moths, cockroaches, flies, scarabs ... That is, they cannot turn into butterflies, there is no such thing as a butterfly. imaginary beauty".


The reason why Liang Zhu's love story has become an eternal masterpiece is because this kind of love is rare and precious.


In fact, this film is not only about Liang Zhu, but the tragedy of the Second World.


If Zhu Yingtai's mother had been braver back then, she would not have chosen to compromise in the process of confronting the world. Will


end differently?


Or, the ending will still be a tragedy like Liang Zhu.


We don't know, but we know that love in this world is never easy.


can stay together for a lifetime, it is not easy.


It's not that we can't tolerate love, it's that the times can't.


Whether it is ancient or modern, the worldly vision, the right match, and the interests are the "stumbling blocks" that will never disappear on the road of love.


After all, it is the normal state of the world that it is difficult for lovers to get married.


can become dependents, mostly small probability events.


So ah, if you're both in love, there's no age resistance yet.


is already a special arrangement by God.
