The teacher spent two classes to let us fully enjoy the film Farewell My Concubine directed by Chen Kaige. This shows that the teacher likes and highly appreciates this film.

To be honest, I would never have seen this film if it had not been shown to us in class. Because I have never had a good impression on some so-called blockbusters before, and I am not interested in or even repelled by some famous stars such as director Chen Kaige and Zhang Guorong. I have never seen their movies. But after watching this film, I have to admit that it is really a classic film, which makes people moved. Those actors have excellent acting skills. Whether they are Zhang Fengyi as Duan Xiaolou, Zhang Guorong as Cheng Dieyi, or Gong Li as Juxian, they all interpret their roles vividly, which can not help but make people cry.

Farewell My Concubine is a drama with strong feelings and winding plots, full of dramatic conflicts between life and death. Some people evaluate it as an epic work. The judges of the International Film Critics Alliance believe that "Farewell My Concubine" deeply explores the history and humanity of Chinese culture, with gorgeous images and exquisite plot ". With the most profound accumulation of Chinese culture in the art of Beijing Opera and the life of its artists, the film has a reflection of human nature and a statement of the state of life. It also reflects a philosophical thinking of Chinese traditional culture through decades of current events. The life experience of the characters in the film is like "drama dream life".

The feelings among Dieyi, Xiaolou and Juxian are really messy. It's impossible to make it clear. Maybe even they can't understand it. As a teenager, Xiaodouzi and Xiaoshi must be in love day and night. It is not impossible to love from love even after the Butterfly Clothes Small Building. What's more, I think there was a lot of ambiguous atmosphere between actors in that era. There is love between Duan Xiaolou and Dieyi, but their love is different. Duan Xiaolou loves his younger martial brother in real life, while Die Yi is obsessed with the powerful overlord in the play. This doomed the tragedy of the story. Duan's love is reflected in many places. No matter what Chen Dieyi did to disobey him or what he asked, he did not dare to show his face unless it was Chen Dieyi's "festival" that he cared about and his impressions of "Farewell My Concubine". Every time there is a conflict between Dieyi and Juxian, he always stands in the room of Dieyi, as long as you see the part where the master taught them. When I was a child, the little stone who had been talking nonsense about skinning had a bitter face. Is that cowardly? No, I'm really ashamed! When the master went to play butterfly clothes, he immediately moved a stool and fell in front of the master. Isn't that love! As soon as Ju Xian finished saying that Butterfly was wrong, Duan Xiaolou slapped her hard. And Ju Xian refused to give up when he asked him to leave Dieyi. He dared to make trouble with all the soldiers for Chen Dieyi in the theater... These details reflect the love of the elder martial brother. In contrast, butterfly clothes are cowardly. When the elder martial brother was beaten by his master's staff, he didn't stand out. During the group fight in the theater, he just stood there motionless and at a loss. In fact, his cowardice is understandable. When a man plays the role of a woman from an early age, and experiences something unimaginable, his psychology is easily distorted. In fact, he is also a simple person, because there is only his overlord in his mind. He was forced to sing Kunjiao by his master since childhood. But every time I would say, "I was a man, not a woman.". He stayed for Xiaoshi, the master brother who had always taken care of him and cared for him, and later the overlord Duan Xiaolou. He was willing to sing later: I was originally a girl, not a boy. Sing and sing and then mix.

Compared with the butterfly clothes, Juxian is much luckier and more unfortunate. She got Duan Xiaolou's love, but also suffered his treachery. For Dieyi, her heart is always complex: she dislikes others' indiscriminate obsession with her husband, and despises him for playing tricks to be with Duan Xiaolou. As a woman, when she was a famous prostitute, she longed to be good, and had the instinct to protect her family. She believed that all the misfortunes were due to the butterfly clothes, so she strongly urged her husband to separate from him; However, she was extremely brave and generous. She was distressed by the butterfly clothes tortured by drug addiction. She pitied that she could not perform the butterfly clothes of "Concubine Yu" on the stage, and even stopped when her husband revealed the butterfly clothes. At the end of her life, she just calmly returned the sword that Butterfly Clothes gave to the small building to expose her Butterfly Clothes, then turned around, turned around, smiled gently, but was sad but tolerant. This exquisite woman was pushed into the abyss by her husband, whom she deeply loved and believed in, but did not harm anyone again. Strong, lonely and proud.

In the scene of the square fight, we saw the ugly side of human nature. Duan Xiaolou betrayed both Dieyi and Juxian in order to save his life. Emotionally speaking, the audience will spurn him, but rationally speaking, we also blame him, which can only be said to be the weakness of human nature. And Dieyi is crazy because she can't stand the betrayal of Overlord. Only Ju Xian touched me most. Her disappointed eyes when she was betrayed by her husband, and a sad but tolerant smile when she turned to look back at the butterfly clothes, made people sigh, and I couldn't help shedding tears.

In the last scene, Duan Xiaolou and Dieyi stood on the stage again and cooperated again in the "Farewell My Concubine" that witnessed all their sweet and bitter stories. When Duan Xiaolou suddenly sang "I was a man", the natural interface of Dieyi was that she was not a girl. Duan Xiaolou just said, wrong, wrong again. At this time, I clearly saw Dieyi's smile, which was calm, as if he understood something. He smiled and repeated: I was a man, not a girl. He finally realized that the emotion he had been indulging in the play for many years was just "wrong, wrong again". Unfortunately, it took him a lifetime to understand. He calmly pulled out his sword and fell to the ground under the sword that witnessed the whole story of their martial brothers from beginning to end. It was so calm and calm. In my opinion, this seems to be a good ending for Dieyi, who has finally returned to reality and regained his identity as "Xiaodouzi". This is much better than living in the drama crazily.

Duan Xiaolou, a normal man with human weakness, was doomed to a lonely life like a "overlord" in that era.
