In Jin Yong's masterpiece " The Legend of Condor Shooting Heroes", the five strongest martial arts masters in the arena: Dongxie Huang Yaoshi, Xitou Ouyang Feng_span, Nandi span3span_span span3span, north beggar Hongqigong, and Zhongshentong Wang Chongyang. The 1993 Hong Kong Lunar New Year movie ": Legend of the Condor Heroes: The East and the West " basically just borrowed the names and settings of these characters, but narrated a ridiculous story that they made up when they were young.
This movie is very special and its birth is also very legendary. Director Wong Kar Wai made a movie " " adapted from "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in the 1990s. However, due to various problems, the film was difficult to produce, the filming could not be completed in the original schedule and the budget was exceeded, which made the investors very dissatisfied.
In order to appease investors, the producer of Liu Zhenwei used the original crew who was filming "Evil and Western Poisons" at the time, and within a month he shot "This comedy was released in time for the Lunar New Year, which bought more time for Wong Kar-wai and "Evil and West Poison". But I didn't expect the reaction to exceed expectations after the official release, and the final box office sold a beautiful 22 million Hong Kong dollars. Instead, the main work "Evil and West Poison", which was released in September of the following year, was only more than 9 million.
Although there were many people who thought that "East and West" was too unreasonable when it was released, but as time went on,This movie, which was originally used as a rescue, has become a magical film in many people's hearts.
The biggest reason why the "East As the West" is so popular with the audience is that the actors participating in the performance are all smashing superstars, but they got together to shoot this film. , Works that are quite different from their original image and play style.
The protagonists in the film are all the most powerful stars in the Hong Kong film industry, but they have put down their idol baggage in the movie, making them funny and ugly. Even the audience can feel the tacit understanding and fun of their shooting, and the natural result is full of laughter.
One of the reasons why "East and West" was complained at the beginning is because its plot is very complicated and illogical, and we have to review it before we figure out the ins and outs.
Jinlunguo's princess and cousin Ouyang Feng have liaison, and plan to usurp the throne. But the three princesses who kept the Jade Seal of the Kingdom escaped successfully, and learned from the master that only by finding the martial arts cheat " " can they beat Ouyang Feng, so they went to search for it with his junior brother Huang Yaoshi.
Under the guidance of the national teacher, Ouyang Feng continued to hunt down the three princesses. But on the way, he accidentally killed King Chongyang, Master Quanzhen, and fell into the valley as a result. The younger brother of Wang Chongyang Zhou Botong mistakenly identified the third princess as the murderer and ran after the third princess.
Huang Yaoshi, who was originally in love with the younger sister, transferred to the third princess. This made the younger sister who had a marriage contract with Huang Yaoshi very dissatisfied and followed them secretly.
I didn’t expect to meet my cousin, the beggar gang leader, Hong Qi just after I got down the mountain.She was asked to fulfill her marriage contract when she was a child, but she was rejected tragically. Hong Qi jumped off the cliff to commit suicide, but accidentally met Ouyang Feng who wanted to climb out of the bottom of the valley, and the two became enemies together.
On the other hand, the emperor Duan Zhixing in the Dali Kingdom in the south was told to find a "sincere man" with "3 6s" on his chest and let him say three times "I love You" can become a celestial being. But because Duan Zhixing and the third princess had a marriage contract, he decided to find her to dissolve the marriage contract first, and by the way, look for a true person. So far, all the people have chased the three princesses to the same inn, and the meeting of everyone will also disturb the spring water in the rivers and lakes!
This movie is actually a frequent guest of TV rebroadcasts. I can't remember how many times I have watched it in the past ten years, but every time I go to it, I can't help but watch it. Whether it is incoherent editing, gorgeous chaos, canned sound effects, etc., not only is there no sense of contradiction, but it evokes fond memories of childhood. These crude production quality cannot be compared with today's commercial blockbusters, but the joy they can bring to the audience is not inferior.
If you’ve watched "East as the West", your first impression when someone mentions this film is that your ears are swollen like pig ears with two hanging on your mouth. Ouyang Feng of the sausage. Tony Leung, who plays Ouyang Feng, is a famous dynamo. His gentle and affectionate appearance in other movies does not know how many people have fascinated him.
And in the movie, he taught Hong Qi, who was trapped by love, his tricks of slap-up, but no matter how charming Tony Leung is, he probably can only wash and sleep early when he is dressed like this!
Under the guidance of Ouyang Feng, the honest and simple Hong Qi finally got his way, and decided to confess his sweetheart to his little cousin. And the result is this timeless classic "I Love U"!
The high-energy part of "East and West",It is definitely not the scene of "Western Drugs vs. Northern Beggars"! After being rejected by his cousin, Hong Qi wanted to commit suicide. Hong Qi suggested that Ouyang Feng kill him, and he would never fight back. But he didn't expect that martial arts practitioners were born with supernatural power, and Hong Qi's subconscious instinct caused Ouyang Feng to suffer. This episode lasts 15 minutes, but the sparks of Jacky Cheung and Tony Leung are really wonderful, and they created the most hilarious part of the film!
It has been 28 years since it was released. The movie superstars who were flourishing back then are now in different situations. Brother Leslie Cheung will always stop at the age of 47, Wang Zuxian quit the movie world early and live in Canada in seclusion. And the other actors have lost their style.
I don’t know when I will see the next alternative classic like this one.
