The whole film led us through the decline of the late Qing Dynasty, Japan's invasion of China, the Sino-Japanese civil war, the new liberation, the Cultural Revolution and other historical stages. Through the films, we can see the living conditions of Peking Opera in different periods, some of which are respected and applauded, and some are abused and molested. But no matter what time, Chen Dieyi never forgets his initiative. He told everyone in his own voice that Beijing opera is pure, borderless and classless, no matter how others treat him. As long as he stands on the stage, he represents every living figure in Beijing opera, and his soul is integrated into the opera. There is a passage in the middle. During the performance, the Japanese entered the scene, and the scene was in chaos. People fled here and the lights went out. However, Chen Dieyi still stood on the beat, singing and performing in an orderly way. The professionalism of the actors made people around applaud. There are ordinary people and people present.
Chen Dieyi stuck to his beliefs and dreams all his life, and no one could impress him except his elder brother Duan Xiaolou. There are several such descriptions in the play. For the first time, after I arrested him that day, he saved him without hesitation. Although he hates the Japanese, he is willing to go through fire and water for his brother. He went and won the respect and applause of the Japanese. At the same time, he also saw a large number of China people killed by the Japanese. Seeing that scene, he hated himself because he sang for his country's executioner. The second time, when he saw the sword that his disciples dreamed of in Grandpa Yuan's house, he committed himself to Grandpa Yuan, talked with the people he hated, and even suffered humiliation. At that time, he only wanted to use his apprentice and give him the sword to repay his apprentice's affection, which was also the bottom of his heart. He wants to break with his disciples completely from now on, just because his disciples are estranged from each other.
In the play, we see China's quintessence of Peking Opera on and off in turmoil. If the country breaks down, our culture will be wantonly ravaged and destroyed by outsiders, and the culture of national security will be appreciated and respected. Beijing opera is like this. Isn't it the same with other national quintessence cultures in China? How many of them were destroyed and destroyed in the unrest? But Chen Dieyi, like a patron saint, will never forget his original intention. No matter what the outside world is like, my heart remains the same. It is because of people like Chen Dieyi that the spirit of Peking Opera can continue. Preserved the traditional cultural treasures of our country. In the film, others burn his costume and humiliate him endlessly, which makes people anxious. I just want to say that we cherish what we have now, which was handed down by our predecessors with the care of life. Let's continue to carry forward our traditional culture.
