Why is A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix a bad movie?

Movie from suona.

At the beginning of Master Jiao Sanye's apprenticeship, we seem to be able to roughly guess the end, just like we ourselves have not witnessed the glorious moment of the suona craftsman, but only know that this skill is now on the verge of decline. The whole movie is like a prophecy, indicating that the business of suona will be forgotten in the trend of the times; "A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix".

It is the sorrow and joy that the suona craftsman blows to Jiao Sanye, to himself, and to many skills and cultures that have disappeared in the changes of the times. Tianming asked the master if she had any children with the master. Although the apprentices are like Jiao Sanye's children, their "Jiao Family Class" also has to change their names to some extent because they have no heirs.

Like the skill of blowing suona, there is no successor. The customs and etiquette of playing suona are the same as what we see now, and they are also the same as the defeat of Chinese and Western musical instruments in the movie, and they gradually decline in the impact. The director of the film, Wu Tianming.

Mr.'s immortal death, a powerful figure in the film industry in the past era, can be seen from the end credits of the film to gather half of the mainland film industry, and his posthumous work is also in "Captain America 3".

and other foreign blockbusters or domestic films that meet the tastes of contemporary audiences, struggling to get a little box office.

The main story line of "Hundred Birds and Phoenix" is the rise and fall of a generation of suona craftsmen. The story is not complicated, but more emotional. When expressing the gradual fading of this folk custom and finally even disappearing into the land of northern Shaanxi, I saw another expression behind it:

Rural life is shattered in the process of forced urbanization. The movie starts with the apprenticeship of the child Tianming, and shows us the dependence of the Qinchuan countryside on suona. However, with the development of the times, in just a dozen years of changes, the skill of blowing suona is difficult to maintain in the process of conflict between folk customs and foreign civilizations.

As the world changes, people's hearts fluctuate, and what was once respect evolves into a difficult livelihood, and eventually, it has to face the desperate situation of being lost. The rise and fall of suona, like other intangible cultural heritage, is rooted in the hot soil that nurtured them. When the people in the fields like and love it, <>

This skill will continue to develop. is like Master Jiao San in the movie, he expounded on suona, which is not just played and sung at weddings and funerals, on the contrary, it is civilian and daily. When the suona is blown in the field, it is a pastime, a kind of entertainment, and a comfortable rest for the farmers.

Suona craftsmen seem to be a medium that can convey their hearts. Whenever there is a major event in the family, please ask the general suona craftsman to blow and blow, which is also a matter of face. In the past, playing suona could be admired by farmers as artists.

Especially for white things, whether or not to play "Hundred Birds and Phoenix" to see them off is a major event that can only be decided by the suona class master, and it is not about money, but only about conscience.

"A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix" is a very simple movie, and it is also a movie that makes people silent for a long time after watching it. 62616964757a686964616fe59b9ee7ad9431333366306461

The movie is mainly about the decline of traditional culture, and how to inherit traditional culture in the rapidly developing modern society? How to find a balance between traditional culture and modern civilization? It's the question that this movie throws at us.

The movie shows us the craftsmanship spirit of suona artists. The first half of the movie records the journey of a learned artist, and the so-called "ten years of work off the stage" is like this. Use corn stalks to absorb the water in the lake, and if you don't practice well, you can't eat.

It is also because the strict master produces a high apprentice, and what is mastered by heart is the real craft.

The entry of Western musical instruments is a huge impact on suona artists, more and more people have begun to deviate from the tradition, and even the apprentices who followed him to learn art have gradually stopped playing suona, in the face of all this, Jiao Sanye is very anxious, angry, and panicked. He tried many ways to salvage the lost traditional skills, but what the film shows in the end is that he dies with regrets.

After watching the movie, all the emotions piled up, and in the end only silence remained. I know that in the development of modern civilization, it will inevitably lead to the decline of some traditional cultures, and those skills that contain the painstaking efforts of craftsmen will be annihilated by the torrent of modernity. The development of the times is an objective reality, and self-pity and self-pity cannot be solved.

How to continue to inherit and rejuvenate our culture in the development of the times is a difficult problem we are facing.

At the end of the film, the apprentice played a song "A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix" in front of the master's grave, which was the best in the whole film, his confusion and his determination, his sorrow and his ideals were all blown into his heart in a song "A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix".

Although the film does not give us an answer, it blows a wailing sound and reminds us to make changes.

First of all, the theme of the film is very good, which can't be done with an entertaining mentality, and there will be respect and admiration involuntarily, whether it is character performance or folk art such as suona.

The second is the interpretation of the characters, which is very expressive, and it can be said that the whole body is dedicated to the art of suona, to inherit and carry forward, and these spirits and national souls can be presented through the excellent interpretation of the characters.

Then there is the display of the film environment, the scene is well chosen, which not only coincides with the efforts of the two generations of Jiao Sanye and his apprentices, but also reflects the loneliness of folk art.

"Hundred Birds and Phoenix" not only represents the artistic realm of suona, but also shows the status of excellent traditional culture and art, although we all know that art is the essence, but few people will sacrifice themselves to invest in these unprofitable behaviors, although they are moved and admired, but it is only a temporary emotional touch, culture and art really need not to be appreciated by spectators, and practical practice, "Hundred Birds and Phoenix" is very good.

Towards the end of the movie, there is a situation on the streets of Xi'an, there is an old man with messy and gray hair, blowing suona and begging, the desolation in the eyes of the protagonist when the camera turns to the protagonist, reminiscent of this is the future situation of the suona inheritor. Although such an ending is expected, combined with the real society, this artistic conception still feels moving. From my point of view, this film is simply a reflection of the changes in traditional culture in the wave of reform and opening up in the past few decades.

"A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix" is a nostalgic film for the era of small farmers, which recalls not only culture and skills, but also the farming civilization and ethics that gave birth to this culture and skills.

The film begins with a commemorative set tidbit, continuing Zhang Yimou and Martin Scorsese's feelings and respect for Wu Tianming. From this unique opening, the tone of "A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix" has been doomed, and compared with the normally released feature films, this release is more like a special tribute in the film industry.

Like "Changing Face", "A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix" is an elegy for another "folk art" (suona), and it is also the swan song of director Wu Tianming. Wu Tianming is well-known and respected in the film industry, which is inseparable from his personality, and the main purpose of "A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix" is, to a certain extent, also a portrayal of Wu Tianming's film life - watch and perseverance. Tao Zeru's performance in the film is excellent, proving once again that he is a "performance artist".

is blowing "A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix".

In the final scene of the movie, the third master has been buried, and the cement and sand tomb has been built. This plot should have happened some time after Master Jiao's funeral ended, and it was the scene when You Tianming himself came to hang Master Jiao again.

In such a scene, Tianming dressed up for a happy event and played another song "Hundred Birds and Phoenix" to the master, hoping to send the master on the last journey with a more positive appearance, so that the master could look at him, the seedling that had persevered, and leave with hope and relief.

The birds and phoenixes you hear on the Internet are very festive tunes, as for the birds and phoenixes are the music of great sorrow, the music of the great mourning version of the birds and phoenixes can only be heard in Heyang County, Weinan, Shaanxi Province, when there are white things, there are suona craftsmen to play, for various reasons, basically as long as someone passes away in Heyang County, they will blow the birds and the phoenix, and it is not like being replaced by a foreign band in the movie, but suona and foreign bands have been combined, and suona cannot be replaced in the band.

Just a month after completing the film editing in 2014, director Wu Tianming passed away.

According to entertainment information, the Kenai movie "Hundred Birds and Phoenix" was released in 2016, and it was written by Wu Tianming, the "fourth director of the Han Scattered Dynasty". In fact, only one month after the completion of the film editing in 2014, the death of director Wu Tianming made "A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix" a master's swan song. Therefore, the reason why Bainiao Chaofeng was released in 16 years was the death of director Wu Tianming.

Hello, I am a creator in the field of film and television. You can also call me Caron. It's an honor to describe what kind of movie "A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix" is.

103010 shows us such a touching story: in a small village in Wushuang Town, Shaanxi Province, the people in the village regard suona as an artistic activity and respect it very much, because in their opinion, playing suona is a folk art, not just entertainment. At the funeral, the skin is stuffy to show a kind of life evaluation of the deceased, and the moral mediocre ones only blow two, four in the middle, and eight on the top.

Only people with high moral standing are qualified to blow the "Hundred Birds and Phoenix". Among the unparalleled in the town, only Jiao can blow this song "Hundred Birds and Phoenix".

At the beginning of the film, You's father takes the young You to Master Jiao (Master Jiao) to learn art. After some struggle, Master Jiao agreed to accept You as an apprentice, and from then on You began a difficult journey of suona learning.

When practicing suona, he insisted on being diligent and studious. However, this spirit is what Master Jiao values the most. He saw Tian Ming's love for suona and his noble personality from You. Therefore, he has become the only one who has learned to bend the "hundred birds and phoenixes".

Later, with the development of the times, You Tianming grew up, and with it, a more shocking Western band gradually spread in the village. So the suona team gradually declined, and there were fewer and fewer villagers. Please ask the suona team to play suona.

However, Yu Tianming didn't want to see suona so impacted by Western musical instruments, so he chose to fight it to the end.

In the end, Jiao Sanye, who was full of white hair and gray sideburns, played a song "Hundred Birds and Phoenix" to the recently deceased and respected Dou Dai blind village chief. Because the old third master Jiao, who was suffering from tuberculosis, played "A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix", his mouth was full of blood, which made his condition even more serious, and finally he was overwhelmed.

At the end of the film, in front of Master Jiao's tomb, he played the earth-shattering "Hundred Birds and Phoenix" with great grief and indignation. In the clouds, the master sat on the Taishi chair, looked at the apprentice with a smile, and listened to the whole song proudly.

This film is created for art, but also for excellent traditional culture. Through the film, we can know the true meaning of "a hundred birds and a phoenix".
