Text/Peach Demon is not a demon
Recently, a movie about the Chinese people saving the US military pilots during World War II was released, "Beacon Fangfei", which not only shows the long-buried cruel history in front of our eyes, but also warms people's hearts with the film's public welfare actions. At the Beijing press conference on the 9th, the producer of "Beacon Fangfei" announced that a part of the money will be taken out of each movie ticket for the medical treatment of the victims of the germ war, the legal team that fought with the Japanese invaders and the rescue of the anti-war veterans, which means that every audience who watched the movie did their best for the victims, and it was exciting to think that they could do something for the chinese who had been injured!
And why did the filmmakers have such a good deed? Let's start with the movie.
Set against the backdrop of World War II and based on true events, the film tells the story of pilots who were sent to fight back against Japan after being attacked by Japanese airstrikes. After the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor in the United States, after the Doolittle Flying Team of 64 pilots bombed Tokyo, it was forced to land in China due to lack of fuel, of which 56 were rescued by local people and safely returned to the United States. The rescue incident caused China to be retaliated against by Japan, which not only launched air raids, ground encirclement and massacres but also launched germ warfare, killing nearly 250,000 Chinese people.
The movie "Beacon Fangfei" is newly directed by Billy August, and co-starred liu Yifei, Emile Husky, Yan Yikuan, Yu Shaoqun and other powerful actors. In the era of war clouds, people are brave and strong, dare to resist, a shocking and touching story is about to unfold, reflecting the strong and fearless character spirit of people of different nationalities and ages.
Following the great success of the screening in the Kingdom of Denmark, the film "Beacon Fangfei" was invited by the President of the Romanian Jury in Cannes, the Chairman of the Jury of the 20th Shanghai International Film Festival, the Cannes Film Festival Palme d'Or and the winner of the Best Director, Christian Monji, to participate in the "Cannes Bucharest Film Festival" and screened. In an interview with Xinhua News Agency, Meng Ji praised "Beacon Fangfei" as "making the world feel great love."
"Fairy Sister" Liu Yifei plays a widow named Ying Zi, who risks her life to rescue Jack (Emile Husky), an American pilot who was forced to land in China due to an accident, and successfully helps him escape. The scenes of fighter bombing Tokyo and plane crashes in the trailer are breathtaking, while the atmosphere of the Japanese military carpet search order film is even heavier, and the search for mountains, houses, and even massacres of civilians allows the audience to witness this painful historical legacy.
The movie has a certain standard, this editor does not doubt, the most anticipated is its heroine, Liu Yifei played by the widow Yingzi. This time, Liu Yifei challenged herself to play a widow living in a small town in Jiangnan, who took on the burden of raising her daughter and taking care of her in-laws alone after her husband was brutally killed by the Japanese army.
After a person reaches a certain point, the biggest opponent is himself. Modern romance films are fine, how to look at movies with anti-war backgrounds does not belong to the category of "immortal" sisters, so one of the biggest highlights of this movie is the role of Liu Yifei. The widow Yingzi she plays can be said to be a representative of traditional Chinese women, and the pain caused by the war to women is almost all reflected in this character. Unexpectedly, this role was actually "carried" by her silently. With the direction of the plot and the escalation of the crisis, the audience can actually experience a kind of hidden forbearance in Hideko, which makes her in a state of peace in all harsh environments, and this suppressed heaviness makes people feel even more sad.
Such female characters are very much like the hands of the female writer Yan Geling, motherhood, and occasionally exude the innocence of a young girl, full of suffering, forgiveness, and the kind of willingness to pay for their own destruction. The characters are frozen, but the spirit is eternal. Liu Yifei is no longer a "fairy sister", she is an undefeated flower in the fire of war.
In addition to Liu Yifei, the male protagonist of the film is also not small, full of points of view. He is the American power and idol actor Emil Hirsch who starred in a series of Hollywood acalyptic masterpieces such as "Survival in the Wild", "March Boy", "Lonely Survivor" and so on.
Whether it is Christopher, the wild and uninhibited idealist in "Survival in the Wild", or March, the fragile and naïve country boy in "March Boy", through his interpretation, he has an unforgettable power. This appearance in "Beacon Fangfei" is also his Chinese debut, which can be said to be quite worth looking forward to for fans and fans.
The director of "Beacon Fangfei" should not be underestimated, he is the world-renowned film master Billy August. Before the film was screened at the Festival, the film was the first to be screened in the director's hometown of Copenhagen, Denmark, hosted by Henrik Bo Nelson, president of the Danish Film Association, and currently receives a high rating of 8.7 on IMDB.
In the face of the complex historical background of "Beacon Fangfei", Billy Auguste did not fear his hands and feet, and he touched and presented the painful national scars with a straight-forward attitude, which may be a different scenery that we can't see in domestic anti-war movies.
From the trailer, report, stills, introduction and other information, we can spy the true feelings about this movie. The grace of helping others and saving people and the affection between mother and daughter have become the moving places of this movie, which can more or less bring sincere emotional baptism to the audience. Love, especially the precious truth in the war years, how many people will not feel kind and moved by it.
The film has been released simultaneously across the country on November 10, let's feel these warm and touching feelings.
