The Blue Kite (1993)
Directed by Tian Zhuangzhuang
The Blue Kite focuses on a young boy, Teitou, as he grows up in 50s and 60s in China, and the dangers and hardships he and his mother must face. It is split into three acts, each one featuring Tietou at a different age and with a different father figure in his home, starting with the boy's real father. Just as each father starts to endear himself to the audience, something unexpected happens that takes him away. There」s a strong fatalistic streak in the film that likely reflects the feelings of people living in that time period. It」s painful watching Teitou and his mother in a way toyed with by forces out of their control. See this film if you can, it gives a rare glimpse into a past some would like to keep secret.
影片講述了成長於五六十年代的鐵頭和他的母親度過的危險和艱難的歲月。全片一共分成三部分,每一部分表現了鐵頭的一個成長階段,每個階段他都有一個新的爸爸。一個爸爸剛剛被觀眾所接受,一件意外事情就發生了並把他帶走了。影片帶有強烈的宿命論調調,反映了那個時代人們的內心情感。看到鐵頭和他的母親被無情的命運所擺布,讓人心裡很不是滋味。
