Since Shaw Brothers disappeared, the rivers and lakes disappeared.





In the past half month, he has accomplished many small goals, such as ending the 300 films of Shaw Brothers Tianying Repair Collection, such as completing the "Zatoichi" series starring Sheng Shintaro For example, it took a day and a night to read "The Way of Heaven", and the reason why it was successfully achieved is also thanks to the three mountains of power curtailment, high temperature, and the epidemic.


I hope that the days in the future will be a little more normal, and the topic of sucking films will become less and less. Maybe I will take the director or genre topic as a small goal, and accept some new films by the way. Amway is basically the same as before. How to pass the time Salvage treasure, it seems to have to look at the opportunity.

Shaw Brothers Tianying's restoration series, I chose this topic because there were too few new films in the first half of this year, and the old classics were only a small amount of re-watching, and it was mainly considered to pass the time, starting from setting a small goal at the beginning of the year , It was originally expected to be finished in October, but during the process of watching it, I found that some of it had been watched in recent years, and there was enough free time to end it early.

As a movie entry or enlightenment genre, Shaw Brothers martial arts films are also a feeling when I was young. After all, this is a movie for men. Besides, who has never dreamed of martial arts, once dreamed of traveling the world with swords, take a look Martial arts heroes enjoy the excitement and emotion brought by happiness and enmity. There are too many familiar faces and martial arts moves, and they have accompanied him for almost the whole childhood.

Shaw Brothers, which focuses on martial arts movements, actually has very few boutiques. It can almost be regarded as a powerful film industry in Hong Kong. The kind of mass-produced replicas that seem to be produced on the assembly line, so that it is necessary to list the top ten. It was very difficult, only a few were impressed, and the rest were blown away by the big waves, sand and rain, and these films also had their own characteristics.

Wuguan

Time Score 7.1

Action / Plot It was released in Hong Kong, China on August 20, 1981

In terms of the excellent design of the action, he thought that only "Wuguan" was the most powerful, ending with two people who lasted for seven minutes Lane Fighting is called Shaw Brothers' first martial arts action movie. This is not only the record of Shaw Brothers martial arts with the longest duration (no textual research, instinctive blind guessing), but more importantly, it is a perfect viewing experience. Different from traditional martial arts films, because of the identities and specific stories of the characters in the film, that is, there is no display of pros and cons and vendettas, but the ending is enough to restore all dignity. Director Liu Jialiang and starring Liu Jiahui contributed greatly.

" Golang Gossip Stick " is even better in terms of story. From a young man to a big family and even a country, we are not only satisfied with martial arts grievances, but also the complete and detailed story of the film. The narrative is also relaxed and the depiction is delicate and harmonious. Accurate, director Liu Jialiang and actor Liu Jiahui have cooperated perfectly again, and the martial arts design and performance are also excellent enough. Really, the temperament of the blockbuster has a big picture. Obviously, this has broadened the boundaries of the hero and broke the Shaw Brothers martial arts. film type ambitions.

Huo Bing

Action Released in Hong Kong, China on November 6, 1971

In terms of narrative skills and unconventional expressions, "Huo Bing" is the most interesting. It is a feature film with martial arts action and plot suspense. With the fundamental attribute of nesting dolls, and in the virtual world of rivers and lakes or martial arts, the fundamental definition is profound and explicit. This sinister world of rivers and lakes and the greedy and ugly human nature are exactly the so-called bustling profits and interests. The stereotyped tradition of man making money and killing birds as food for death. Similar Shaw Brothers martial arts films like

, as well as a series of films directed by Chu Yuan and based on Gulong 's novel, the biggest feature of this series is that the world of Jianghu under the director's lens is a relatively complete linear To plan, almost every few will portray a legendary hero, and they are more or less related to each other, according to the order.The sequence is quite interesting, and the linkage is strong enough to have a sense of heroic epic.

Passionate Swordsman Ruthless Sword

Time Score 7.0

Action / Costume / Martial Arts Released in Hong Kong, China on October 14, 1977

Not only that, back when Jin Yong became famous, Gu Long wanted to be different from his predecessors. The creation does not start with dots and lines and lines and planes to continue the integrity of a person or rivers and lakes. Instead, it focuses on a single accidental event, and it is fascinating through the suspense factor, which is enough to experience different stimulation and Satisfaction, so this is very different from the vast majority of Shaw Brothers martial arts films, one is straightforward, and the other is a new approach, and the overall look and feel is obviously much better. The last thing worth mentioning about

is that Shaw Brothers has a unique set due to the limited venue and film set. All the beautiful, colorful, ethereal and illusory dreams are realized through simple interior scenes. With the cooperation, it is extraordinarily bright and beautiful on the big screen, especially when it is matched with the film adapted by Gu Long, it is like the finishing touch, and the fantasy and fantasy are even more beautiful and unpredictable.

In terms of costumes, makeup, props and music, director Li Hanxiang and also have a lot of characteristics. There are a considerable number of large productions and luxurious scenes. Although there are very few real standouts, the impression is always colorful, and there are similarities but not simple. In the past half a century or so, the makeup technology was not particularly advanced, and the shooting technology was not greatly improved, so there would be many small flaws, such as when wearing the camera lens, and the headgear on the face when the character was close-up. gaps, but most of them have little effect.

The prosperity of Shaw Brothers martial arts has brought unprecedented development prospects to Hong Kong movies. For decades, this golden signboard has attracted countless attention, and even went abroad to become a martial arts genre alone, and kung fu is also famous all over the world; Yu Anle, it is also this type of monopoly, without timely adjustment and transformation, the quality of the later martial arts works is worrying, the market is saturated and the audience is tired of seeing it, and there is an urgent need for new types to fill it, but it is too late now. So Shaw is gone, and the rivers and lakes are gone.

Plot / Ancient Costumes Released in Hong Kong, China on March 21, 1975

So basically, it can be said that Hong Kong movies are "successful Shaw Brothers, defeated Shaw Brothers", witnessing prosperity, but also bringing in After the low-lying, how many types of film work unique to Hong Kong, such as martial arts stand-ins and directors, such as set and prop masters, such as many cast members, after the collapse of Shaw Brothers, they also began to go their separate ways, and again In fact, the proportion of those who have invested in the film industry is already very low.

Of course, there are other things worth talking about in this type of movie, such as the director, screenwriter, original book, actors and characters. I have talked a few words before, and it is a proof and feeling that I have seen it. It is always said. There will be more sighs, there are classic screen moments in my mind, I want to go back to the past.
