may be influenced by the 007 series of movies. Many people imagine that the spy agents are handsome and omnipotent. James Bond can meet romantic love while performing missions. Little does it know that the real world of secret agents is not as beautiful as we imagined. This movie " above the cliff " directed by Zhang Yimou and adapted from the original story of Quan Yongxian, takes us into the world of secret agents in the 1930s.
This film tells the story of four well-trained Communist Party agents who were betrayed by traitors and dealt with the enemy during the secret operation of "Utra" in the 1930s.
In the trailer, Qin Hailu and Zhu Yawen were caught in a whirlpool and shot in despair. The agent played by Liu Haocun had to strangle people, and the most disturbing scene was that Zhang Xianchen, played by Zhang Yi, was electrocuted and tortured.
Zhang Xianchen, who has been tortured by various tortures to an adult-like appearance, has electrodes clamped on his earlobes and chest. As long as he opens the switch to increase the power, he will be shocked and shudder all over his body. , More painful than death. Even with such torture, he gritted his teeth and refused to disclose any information.
Just a few tens of seconds of the preview showed Zhang Xianchen's greatness and perseverance, and the brutality of torture, and it was very close to the real history at that time. I have to say that "National Teacher" Zhang Yimou really dare to shoot.
The line in the trailer "They have to hide some secrets to pay such a big price", it also reveals the minds of the Japanese. Perhaps this secret is related to the "Utra" operation.
It’s worth mentioning that,The role of Zhang Xianchen and other agents is not based on a certain person as the prototype, but represents the heroic martyrs who really existed in history who shed their blood for the country and the nation. In order to protect their compatriots, they guarded the intelligence and carried out all kinds of torture, even at the expense of their own lives.
A lot of torture is frightening just by listening. It is said that five fingers are connected to the heart, so there are punishments such as bamboo stab nails, bamboo chopsticks to clamp fingers and toes, as well as the well-known torture tools such as tiger stools, electric chairs, soldering irons, and wire whips. Sprinkle a handful of salt or pepper water on the wound, the kind of piercing pain is really unimaginable.
On June 30, 1936, the anti-Union heroine Zhao Yiman was unfortunately arrested by the Japanese army. After experiencing various tortures, she remained silent until the Japanese army became angry and decided to put her to death. Zhao Yiman, who was only 31 years old, wrote an absolute letter to his son on the train to the execution ground: "When you grow up, don't forget that your mother sacrificed for the country." After the "September 18th" Incident, Deng Tiemei quit her job as the chief of the police and set up an anti-Japanese team in a place called Gujiapuzi in the west of Fengcheng County. Because of his high reputation, many people came to join him, and this team grew rapidly, and soon grew to more than 200 people and more than 300 guns.
After Deng Tiemei was arrested by the Japanese army, he was not afraid, and he was bold and upright in the trial court and talked freely. Before his execution, a Japanese soldier held a folding fan and asked him to write an inscription. He wrote: "What a pity for a seven-foot body, when will the four provinces be lost?" Faced with his crying wife, Deng Tiemei calmly said: "You can't succeed. You must be a benevolent. Now, I'm on that path." On the night of September 28, 1934, Japanese army general Deng Tiemei quietly killed him, at the age of 43.
In June 1942, Ruby Lin fell ill and went to see a doctor after giving birth. After the traitor learned about it, he surrounded the Chinese medicine shop. Ruby quickly destroyed confidential information and resisted stubbornly. After torturing to no avail, she finally fell into Japanese hands. In the concentration camp, the Japanese tried every means to torture Lin Xinping, using 36 kinds of torture, but the imperfect Lin Xinping never said a word.The Japanese forced the question to no avail. One day in August 1942, a heavy army was deployed on the playground of an elementary school to drive the crowd to watch. In front of the common people, the Japanese imposed a brutal punishment on Lin Xinping, and the young anti-Japanese heroine died in this way, only 23 years old.
Zhao Yiman, Deng Tiemei, Lin Xinping...The names and deeds of these heroes should be remembered forever by my generation. At the same time, we must not forget that there are more heroes who have sacrificed on the unknown front. It was they who built the present peace and prosperity with their flesh and blood, and exchanged their lives for the current happy life. Without their sacrifices, there would be no new China that is prosperous and prosperous.
According to incomplete statistics, the number of martyrs in China who have sacrificed their lives for the country in modern times is about 20 million, of which only 1.96 million have names and surnames. Although we cannot know the names of these 20 million martyrs one by one, we should continue their fearlessness and perseverance, their gleaming faith, the spirit and feelings of defending the home and the country, and continue to guard this vast land.
When I think of this, my expectations for "Above the Cliff" have increased a bit. The film is not only a look back on history and a tribute to the heroes, but also Zhang Yimou's first sincere work of challenging the theme of spy warfare.
As a representative of the fifth-generation director, Zhang Yimou is always experimenting with new styles. How will he make a Chinese-language spy war commercial blockbuster? Perhaps the trailer has already given the leading answer.
Snow is an element that cannot be ignored in the trailer. As night falls, the snowflakes falling on the street, the heavy snow that radiates from life and death... the image of snow changes with the narrative of the film, adding a touch of weight and romance to the film. I believe that with the skill of director Zhang Yimou, it will surely do it. Use the snow scene to its extreme.
The cast of "On the Cliff" is also unprecedentedly strong,Director Zhang Yimou is very good at discovering the other side of actors. So we saw Zhang Translated Yu Hewei was crazy about her mind; Qin Hailu’s crying was heartbreaking, and her scalp numb just by listening; Zhu Yawen, the "walking hormone", coexisted with beauty and acting skills; a new generation of actors Liu Haocun has filled people's expectations; "Old Opera Bone" Ni Dahong A look implies murder, and Lei Jiayin and Sha Yi two funny but serious actors surprise to join.
Zhang Juemou said that he is not a must-see film by director over the cliff. The film is scheduled for April 30th, but I guess everyone would like to see it first. Then, with family and friends, walk into the cinema on April 18th, April 24th, and April 29th to watch "Above the Cliff". Click ahead of time.
