The 1980s and 1990s were the golden age of Hong Kong films.
At that time, there were not many cultural products in China, and people had little choice, so fashionable and trendy Hong Kong movies instantly swept the whole country.
But later, with the rise of the mainland film market, the advantages of Hong Kong films were no longer obvious, and with the decline in the quality of films, there were even signs of continuous decline.
But Hong Kong filmmakers showed great courage in the face of difficulties.
At that time, they had only two ways, either going to Hollywood or the mainland, and they finally chose to enter the mainland market under pressure.
Of course, choosing to keep pace with the times and face difficulties was a helpless move by Hong Kong filmmakers at that time, but it was also the wisest choice. Facts prove that these people's choice was undoubtedly correct.
After nearly 20 years of exploration, Hong Kong films have also ushered in new opportunities to survive, and have successively created many excellent works with good reputation and high quality.
For example, the classic film "October Siege" which has won multiple nominations and won various awards.
This movie is definitely the dark horse among major films back then. Judging from the box office ratings, "October Siege" has a box office of nearly 300 million in the mainland, and its revenue is quite good.
In terms of film popularity, this film has won eight major film awards, and there are countless nomination awards.
The success of the movie "October Siege" has allowed the audience to see another development opportunity for Hong Kong films, which is to cooperate with multiple parties to film.
The creativity of Hong Kong movies is always impeccable, novel and unique.
Therefore, until now, Hong Kong style culture is also a major fashion that many viewers like and pursue.
No matter how many years have passed, this classic nostalgia has remained fresh forever.
But on the other hand, in terms of film production and investment, Hong Kong films cannot compete with the joint impact of Hollywood blockbusters and mainland commercial films.
So in the face of this dilemma, Hong Kong filmmakers made a very bold and wise choice, that is, to be born with the flow and choose to make movies with the mainland.
On the one hand, co-production of film and television dramas has indeed made up for the shortcomings in the background of Hong Kong film production.
On the other hand, this has also caused the essence of Hong Kong culture to be completely lost.
Many viewers complained that it had long lost its original charm and feeling, which is also the main reason for the decline of Hong Kong films in recent years.
However, the movie "October Siege" is undoubtedly a dark horse work in the co-production film, which completely changed the dilemma of the development of Hong Kong films at that time and showed Hong Kong filmmakers new vitality and infinite possibilities.
This movie can be said to be a work by Hong Kong filmmakers who are desperate to do anything, so the whole movie is full of highlights.
From the cast of the actors to the plot of the story, to the feelings of interpretation and inner temperament, all are highlights and highlights.
As a film with a main theme, "October Siege" invested a lot of manpower and material resources to create and restore the real scenes in history at that time.
Therefore, many viewers said that when watching the video, they personally felt what Hong Kong was like at that time.
This sincere restoration of this true style really allowed the audience to see the producer's sincerity and sincerity, and also received a lot of praise.
In addition to the careful and realistic scene production, the film also puts a lot of effort into the actor's costumes and styling.
It is reported that in order to achieve film and television effects, actor Zhang Hanyu takes more than 9 hours to put on makeup every day.
Therefore, it is precisely the sincere efforts of all the crew members that the entire film has achieved the excellent presentation effect.
It is obvious that the most successful movie in 2009 was "October Siege". Its success was not only a box office success, but also a surprisingly consistent reputation. Douban's rating reached 84 points. Some critics believe that "October Siege" has improved the quality of Chinese commercial films.
And all this comes first from the literary success of "October Siege".
The literature here is not the narrow literary writing, but refers to the literary elements in the movie: narrative, character creation, as well as details and dialogue.
"October Siege" has a relatively rigorous story, with full and distinct characters. The stories extending from the life line of each little person are also convincing. The idea of the whole story is both politically correct and has a foothold in the times. The passionate and generous sentences have become new buzzwords.
The success of a movie must first be literary success.
The reason why so many unforgettable movies appeared in the 1980s is because that era was an era of literature and novels. The literary power was strong, and movies seemed to have to marry literature to form an arranged marriage.
The fifth generation of directors are looking for themes in novels and flirting with "Harvest", "Contemporary" and "Flower City". Although their own text creation ability is relatively lacking due to their background, knowledge and experience, fortunately, with some good novels supporting them, they do not have to worry about the subject matter and story at all.
Entering the 1990s, novels began to decline, and it was becoming increasingly difficult to find a fusion text.
Arranged marriages are no longer popular, and the men and women trained by arranged marriages are left on the beach.
The filmmakers then tried to create independently, starting with the author's creative team, inviting writers to do topic compositions, and then began to hire more easily controlled professional screenwriters - as a result, we have seen that this is "Wu Zetian", "Hero", "Ten-sided Ambush", "Wuji", and even "The Legend of the Famous" and "Painted Skin". Moreover, a strange phenomenon is that more and more people are named under the position of screenwriter, and there are even eight screenwriters of "The Legend of the Famous", which clearly shows some serious lack of confidence - when Zhuge Liang was not available, he had to gather a few more cobblers.
And when we look for experience in their failures, we will find that textual failures become the most fatal failure.
The subsequent flood of entertainment simply caused filmmakers to cancel the literary elements in the movie. It doesn’t matter whether the story can stand up. What matters is the means of hype. This trend reached its peak in 2009.
"October Siege" is a perfect combination of creation and style expression, a combination of calm film production process and never-ride personal feelings. Most importantly, it reflects the return of literary elements in the film.
This proves that previous filmmakers abandoned the literary elements in films and regarded themselves as following the trend, which was actually just a stopgap measure under the lack of literary creation ability. And the new generation of filmmakers have made themselves novelists in the era of the decline of novels.
At that time, there were not many cultural products in China, and people had little choice, so fashionable and trendy Hong Kong movies instantly swept the whole country.
But later, with the rise of the mainland film market, the advantages of Hong Kong films were no longer obvious, and with the decline in the quality of films, there were even signs of continuous decline.
