English name：Movie-fan Princess Broadcast time：June 22, 1966 Starring：陈宝珠（Connie Chan）、吕奇、姜中平（Chung Ping Keung）、罗兰（HelenaLawLan） director：黄尧 Introduction Today, I will introduce a Chinese film which called Movie-Fan Princess (影迷公主Yǐngmí Gōngzhǔ). So let us have a brief introduction. During the late 60s Connie Chan (陈宝珠Chén Bǎozhū) was the idol of Hong Kong’s “factory girls,” the young women who worked in the colony’s booming manufacturing industries. These women readily identified with Connie’s down-to-earth nature and can-do attitude. In Movie-Fan Princess she herself plays a factory girl who ends up becoming a movie star and being romanced by her screen idol played by Lv Qi (吕奇Lǚ Qí). Movie-Fan Princess was the first time that Connie was paired with Lv Qi, who would star as her leading man in 25 films over the next four years. Contemporary audiences are probably more familiar with the lampoons of Lv Qi than they are with the man himself. In this film, he plays a popular actor adored by Connie and all the other girls at the factory. Connie quickly loses her crush, however, when she finally sees him in person on the set of one of his films. He turns out to be quite the diva, demanding a break between each take to be pampered by three female…

English name：A Chinese OdysseyBroadcast time：January 21, 1995Starring：周星驰（Stephen Chow）、朱茵（Athena Chu）、吴孟达（Ng Man Tat）、蓝洁瑛（Yammie Lam）、莫文蔚（Karen Mok）、罗家英（Kar-Ying Law）、刘镇伟（Jeffrey Lau）、蔡少芬（Ada Choi）、江约诚（Johnnie Kong Yeuk-Sing）、陆树铭（Suk Bung Luk）、吴珏瑾（Juejin Wu）director:刘镇伟（Jeffrey Lau） Introduction Comedy film "A Chinese Odyssey," directed by Jeffrey Lau, starring Stephen Chow, Karen Mok and Man Tat Ng, was released in two parts - "Pandora's Box" and "Cinderella". Jeffrey Lau and Stephen Chow use main characters from the ancient classic novel "Journey to the West," including the Monkey King, the Pig Guy, the Monk Sha and the Master to create a far-fetched fantasy. The films are a mixture of miscellaneous elements like love affairs, kung fu and time travel. The films are unexpected classics. When released in 1995, they were big flops. Not only were they terribly reviewed, but box office receipts fell far below expectations. But three to five years later, the films suddenly became hot among young people. Some scholars began to label them as "post-modern deconstructionist classics". The films have generated more popular references than any other modern films - many lines and phrases from the films have become an essential part of Chinese popular culture. Revisiting the films now, one may complain that the special effects were shabby but cannot deny that the films…

Introduction Today let’s take a brief introduction of a famous Chinese movie named “The Flowers of War”.Based on Yan Geling‘s novel “13 Flowers of Nanjing,” the Nanjing massacre plays front and center in director Zhang Yimou‘s tale. Zhang Yimou’s great gift for stories of resilient women serves him well in “The Flowers of War,” a uniquely harrowing account of the rape of Nanjing. Simultaneously florid and gritty, this fictitious drama about convent students and prostitutes hiding together from the 1937 Japanese onslaught is a work of often garish dramatic flourishes yet undeniable emotional power, finding humor and heartbreak in a tale of unlikely heroism in close quarters. Making his way through the bombed-out rubble of Nanjing, American mortician John Miller (Bale) arrives at a cathedral to attend to a recently deceased priest. To the dismay of the church’s boy warden, George, and the dozen or so adolescent girl students in his care, Miller turns out to be a genially lazy opportunist who immediately plunders the communion wine supply. When a small army of courtesans barge into the church seeking sanctuary from the Japanese, who have overtaken the city, Miller is delighted at the prospect of his own personal harem and flirts aggressively with…

Painted Skin：the Resurrection Painted Skin: The Resurrection, (Chinese: 画皮II; pinyin: Huà Pí Èr) is a 2012 Chinese action and fantasy film. The film was directed by Wuershan and starred Chen Kun, Zhao Wei, Zhou Xun, Yang Mi, Feng Shaofeng, Fei Xiang and Chen Tingjia in the lead roles. The film reunites most of the original cast but is officially not a sequel to the 2008 film Painted Skin. Director：Wuershan After Painted Skin: The Resurrection premiered in China, critics praised two leading actresses, especially Zhao Wei's breakthrough performance.[3] Audience named Zhao "the most beautiful scarred woman ever seen". Derek Elley from Film Business Asia wrote:"The result is a very entertaining, slightly over-long costume fantasy whose performances and sheer technique carry a script that often punches above its weight."..." Zhou, who since Suzhou River (1999) has almost had the Mainland patent on sexually ambiguous, seductive roles, dominates the movie, as a demon who wants to be human even if it means pain. But she gets a run for her money from Zhao, who's developing much more screen gravitas in her mid-30s and is better directed here than in her previous female-warrior role in Jingle Ma's Mulan (2009). Zhao's scenes with Zhou are much more emotionally resonant…

Once again he plays the country boy who travels to a foreign land, in this case Italy, where his restaurant-owning cousins face trouble from the local syndicate. Their strong-arm tactics have driven customers away and now threaten the family, but Lee refuses to buckle under their pressure and takes them on in a series of impressive confrontations. The film ends with a memorable showdown with world-champion karate artist Chuck Norris in the Roman Colosseum (though much of it is staged in a rather cheap studio set), a brutal, almost inhuman battle that revels in the intense punishment taken by the combatants. Norris is one of Lee's best opponents and a marvelous physical contrast: brawny and hairy, using power and blunt karate moves while lean, wiry Lee…
