On the evening of November 16, the 37th China Film Golden Rooster Awards were announced in Xiamen, Fujian. The best feature film went to Zhang Yimou's "Article 20", for which Lei Jiayin won the best actor; Chen Kaige's theme blockbuster "Volunteers: Attack" won the Special Jury A

The Golden Rooster Award has always been known as a professional award in the Chinese film industry and is one of the most important recognitions in the industry. In addition to using major awards to recognize the unique charm of Chinese films such as the sentiments of family and country, realism, exploration of Chinese film industrialization, and inheritance of traditional culture, the jury also used professional commendations to straighten question marks and amplify true knowledge in the face of global film difficulties. As Han Yan, who won the Best Screenplay Award for "Let's Shake the Sun Together" said: "The audience is the most important factor in Chinese films. "

Observe the lives of ordinary people and write about the true nature of life

Movies are often regarded as cultural products with heavy industry genes. The more expensive the movie, the better. Can good movies only rely on high-end technology and huge investment? ?

Although "Volunteers: Attack" is a large-scale production, director Chen Kaige believes that the spirit of the film and even the original intention of the film is only one - for the people who cannot be forgotten. Paying tribute to history, paying tribute to the cutest people, and paying tribute to the great spirit of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea are the codes that keep the stories of the Volunteer Army constantly written and always fresh and able to connect with the audience.

"Article 20" brought director Zhang Yimou his 11th Golden Rooster trophy in his career. In his latest acceptance speech, real life and the actors' outstanding performances were highlighted. As the first realistic film in China that focuses on the issue of self-defense, the film uses a realistic story, a narrative style that is both solemn and humorous, and a small character's perspective to show the legal principles and human feelings behind Article 20 of the Criminal Law. "Without good actors, it would be impossible to have a movie like this." Zhang Yimou said that the large amount of improvisation, natural expression, the complexity and depth of human nature reflected in the script, and the rare humor in "Article 20" were all accomplished by actors. It is accomplished by creators who are deeply involved in life.
