21 years later, the goldenest year in the history of cinema, 1994, is still talked about, and these classics like a blowout have not faded, but have become more weighty after years of precipitation.
That year, film special effects were not as popular as they are now, and directors paid more attention to the craft of storytelling, resulting in such a batch of classic films that were appreciated by the common customs and loved by audiences around the world. Step back in time... Action!
1. American cinema
The Shawshank Redemption
The biggest unjust case in the history of the Oscars, but in the disc market to play a piece of the sky, has become a classic in the minds of fans forever, IMDB NO.1 is truly deserved.
Forrest Gump
The Spirit of Forrest Gump has always influenced Americans and audiences around the world, and it is this national nostalgia that makes it very convincing to beat "The Shawshank Redemption" to win the Oscar for Best Picture.
Pulp Fiction
When Quentin took over the Cannes Palme d'Or from Clint Eastwood, the world worshipped him.
PS: One of the defeated players of the 1995 Oscar "Forrest Gump".
"Burning Love Years"
James Horner's classic soundtrack injects soul into the film, making the story of the entire family breathless, and the sexy and wild Brad Pitt captures thousands of boys and girls. He was also one of the defeated generals of the 95 Oscar "Forrest Gump".
"Crazy Clerk"
Kevin Smith's film was a huge success at the Sundance Film Festival that year, and the cost of $25,000 in independent films eventually recovered more than $30 million at the box office. But anyone who has a bit of cult spirit in your heart will throw yourself on the ground and lick the five bodies of this film.
True Lies
As the first batch of "American blockbusters" to open the Chinese film market, this film also has an indelible position in the hearts of Chinese film fans. I believe that many people will be red in the face when they watch this scene (when I watched it, there were a bunch of relatives next to me, and I was embarrassed to the point of not being able to do it). Cameron is an innovator in the field of film technology even when making action commercial films, and this film is a classic in the same genre. He is the true king of the world and every movie is changing the world!
Born Killer
It's amazing that Oliver Stone would make a movie like this, but it's no surprise to see that one of the screenwriters is Quentin the Leper. Personally, I think this film is the most in line with woody Harrison's temperament.
PS: At that time, Robert Downey Jr. was not yet Iron Man, and could only be wronged to do a small piece! Poof.
2. European cinema
"This Killer Is Not Too Cold"
Needless to say, Natalie Portman's most spiritual performance has not been seen since. This image was chosen because the movie has a classic poster taken from this photo, and the impression is not a still.
Four Weddings and a Funeral
The representative works of Richard Curtis, the godfather of British comedy, but the director of this film is not him, he is only responsible for the screenwriting, and the films directed by him himself are currently only three: "True Love First", "Pirate Radio", "Time and Space Traveler", all classics!
"The Scorching Sun"
The masterpiece of Russian director Mikhalkov sharply and objectively examines the dark history of the Soviet Union in Stalin's repressive movement, and vividly and thought-provokingly exerts the strong contrast between beauty and cruelty. The Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film and the Cannes Jury Prize are the best compliments for the film.
3. Hong Kong films
Chongqing Forest
"East Evil West Poison"
I have feelings for Wong Kar-wai because the classic lines in his movies can really enter your heart.
"Nine Sesame Officers", "The King of Destruction", "Domestic Lingling Paint"
Jin Carrey in the West and Zhou Xingchi in the East, the performance style of the two is too similar, and they are stupid and indistinguishable. In this year, Xingye also came up with three representative works, of which "Nine Pin Sesame Officer" was almost looped on the movie channel and was deeply loved by the audience. PS: Since "Journey to the West" was only released in January 1995, it was not this year.
《Golden Branches and Jade Leaves》
This year, Chen Kexin made "Golden Branches and Jade Leaves", love and being loved, itself is a game, a very weighty work in Zhang Guorong's film.
Red Roses and White Roses
Being able to perfectly visualize Zhang Ailing's novel, Guan Jinpeng has done it. Among them, the white rose played by Ye Yuqing is as stunning as tailor-made.
Remember when the bananas are ripe 2: First Love
This film and "Remember when the bananas are ripe 1" constitute the best youth series in the history of Hong Kong cinema, which not only has the growing pains of the turbulent years, the joys and sorrows of the family, but also brings out the historical background and social changes of Hong Kong.
4. Films in Taiwan
"Eating Men and Women"
The source of our happiness is not all form-based relationship maintenance, but in the face of our essence of drinking, eating, male and female. Ang Lee's "family trilogy" finale after "Pusher" and "Wedding Feast".
5. Mainland films
"Sunny Days"
Jiang Wen's debut is a genius-level director who is well-known at home and abroad.
"Alive"
Zhang Yimou's best movie.
