MAN OF CINEMA
A very intimate and raw depiction of emotional turmoil of a family and their
life and struggles showcased in parallel with Chinese history from the civil war, to communist and cultural revolution, but in the midst of all this, one thing that remains the same is loss and suffering of people.
It brilliantly Highlights the sacrifices of people and the cost it took to create a communist country and how they all do it without any complaint or dissatisfaction. It's baffling and very intriguing at the same time.
The tragedy of family depicts the tragedy of the country, a brilliant attempt to grapple themes of social duty, importance of community, devoting life to nation under mao's china.
The movie is a great critique of china's state of life in that era. It deals with real stories of people who went through so much suffering, You could see it as a criticism of the regime, or of some of the policies of the early communist government. It can also be seen as a celebration of the resilience of the Chinese people, and a reminder of the sacrifices many had to make in order to reap the rewards of the present generations. Many can have dividing opinions about communist ideology, but the movie neither endorses it nor bashes it, it simply depicts life of simpletons in that time with utmost honesty.
