's " Fury·Serious Case " that exploded on the big screen, director Chen Musheng has passed away, an August who remembers the glorious era of Hong Kong films.
Cops and gangsters, rivers and lakes, and action, these are the three major elements of the peak period of Hong Kong films in the 1980s and 1990s. Director Chen Musheng, who ended up with "Wrath: Serious Case", originally called "天如情".
Maybe some people have not seen this movie, but the scene where Ah Wa in white dress carries JOJO in white wedding dress, nosebleeds and motorcycle speeding together is undoubtedly a classic in the history of Hong Kong films that deserves tribute.
At that time, Andy Lau was nearly thirty years old. He had already shed his baby fat . He was not too thin like he was after he became a vegetarian. He was invincibly handsome and had a fairy-like appearance in his prime. The handsome guys of that era could act handsome and show off, but they couldn't be feminine.
Wu Qianlian, who plays JOJO, has a pair of signature small eyes and a unique innocence.
The love in "If There is Love" is measured by the standard of modern people's three-dimensional closeness, so this seventeen-year-old rich girl JOJO whose parents are not around actually takes the initiative to pursue Ah Hua, who is a gangster. The pit is filled with water.
Ah Hua is not an ordinary gangster. He is involved in fights, murders and robberies. He is a powerful "big brother's assistant" who is pursued by both black and white.
The two met for the first time when Ahua escaped from the police pursuit and took JOJO hostage. Afterwards, Ahua not only did not kill her and silence her as her accomplices wanted, but also sent her home.
Later, JOJO was arranged by the police to identify the suspect, and JOJO "couldn't recognize" him. At this time, JOJO should have contracted Stockholm Syndrome.
The third time was JOJO’s birthday. She made soup and found Ah Hua in a smoky bar. Ah Hua knew that his status was very different, so he wanted to ignore her, but he couldn't help but care about her; he took her to to compete with in order to tease her and force her to retreat, but in the end he spent her birthday with her and drank the soup of love. .
Ordinary prodigal sons can turn back, but it is too difficult for a prodigal son who lives in the underworld to turn back, especially when Ah Hua and his eldest brother have a deep affection for him.
Brotherhood is an important element in Hong Kong-style Jianghu movies. Many times, love comes second to brotherhood.
Ahua is no exception. The eldest brother was killed, and Ah Hua wanted to avenge his eldest brother. He left JOJO in a wedding dress outside the church to pray, and embarked on a bloody road of no return.
Watching Hong Kong-style Jianghu movies from thirty years ago cannot be viewed according to modern people's standards of "living a good life".
The seventeen-year-old wealthy girl JOJO, her parents arranged for her to study in Canada. Excellent studies, a successful career, a well-matched love relationship, and a well-matched marriage. This is what we think is a good life. It is also what parents all over the world expect of their children. No parent would want their daughter to fall in love with someone who murders, sets fire to, and robs. "Big Brother Assistant", this is so scary.
Watching ", do you know ", watching "Pride and Prejudice", what you want to know is how to choose a wife and son-in-law, how to live a long and stable life; watching "If There is Love", but there is no tomorrow and no future, There is only this moment when they love each other regardless of their status, and all the unresolved conflicts are ignored. There is only one person and a kiss in front of them.
To put it bluntly, it is a kind of ostrich-style thinking. If you can escape, escape first, and then talk about it when the end comes.
When Ah Hua fell on the street bleeding and convulsing, JOJO carried the hem of her wedding dress and ran on the road, but there was a high probability that JOJO would not be able to run to Ah Hua, and it would not be her turn to identify the body.
For JOJO, Ahua suddenly appeared in her life and disappeared suddenly, setting off a bloody rain of love. Will JOJO, who has experienced such pure and true love, lose the ability to love again?
All long-lasting feelings in this world contain impurities, whether it is love or friendship, because feelings, the purer and more beautiful they are, the more fragile they are. What lasts, must not be pure.
Ahua disappeared when their love was at its most pure and without any impurities, and no matter how good people or beautiful love JOJO meets in the future, it will not be able to withstand the contamination of time.
Seventeen-year-old rich girl JOJO may never fall in love again.
