The film Crossing the Yalu River： A New Image of the Epic of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea

The film Crossing the Yalu River is an epic film about the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea produced by the Central Radio and Television General Station.

From the perspective of Peng Dehuai, commander and political commissar of Chinese people’s Volunteer Army, the film tells the story from the outbreak of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea to the signing of the armistice agreement, shows the epic war between Chinese people’s Volunteer Army and the United Nations forces led by the United States, and presents us with a complete historical picture of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.

This film has made a brand-new creative image processing for the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, which has three outstanding features: "all", "high" and "special".

The first is "all", that is, history is comprehensive;

In the past, most of the film and television works about the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea focused on the presentation of a certain battle or a certain hero, while the film Crossing the Yalu River presented the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea almost completely on the screen with a panoramic vision. This includes not only the domestic vision from the decision to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, to five battles and important battles among them, to the final victory of Chinese people’s Volunteer Army and the signing of an armistice agreement with the United States, but also the international vision that the U.S. military planned to launch the Korean War, Li Qiwei took office to take over, and the Soviet Union provided support to China.

The film gives a complete and comprehensive display of this period of history. From this point of view, this film can be called an epic masterpiece of the film to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and it also reflects the generosity and broad vision of the "Made in Taiwan" for the panoramic presentation of this war.

Secondly, it is "high", that is, the station is ambitious;

The film Crossing the Yalu River does not simply describe the problems of "losing and winning" and "fighting and peace";

But standing in the history of human development, under the background that the people of China have just achieved national independence and people’s liberation, it reflects the people of China’s pursuit of freedom and happiness and their desire for peaceful development after a hundred years of humiliation.

Such a strong endogenous motivation and strong national emotion can trigger and arouse a wide range of common emotional resonance of human beings;

This is also the reason why every volunteer soldier dares to fight and sacrifice in this war, and can exchange his life for battle and battle victory under extremely difficult conditions. The portrayal of characters in this film reflects the sincere feelings of pursuing a happy life and resisting aggression and oppression;

Under such common human feelings, propositions such as "war and peace", "justice and hegemony" and "individual and country" have been answered and expressed, which also reflects the height of the central radio and television general station in the production.

Finally, it is "special", that is, the expression perspective is unique;

Although the film Crossing the Yalu River is a panoramic display of the grand epic, its expression perspective is to find Peng Dehuai, the commander of Chinese people’s Volunteer Army, and to review and express the war from Peng Zong’s personal perspective. Among them are the contrast between General Peng and American generals, and the true feelings of General Peng and his comrades-in-arms … … All these make us see a unique image of Commander Peng Dehuai.

The image of Peng Dehuai created by Ding Yongdai in Crossing the Yalu River is also the most vivid and vivid in many film and television works, with clear love and hate, daring to fight and dare to rush, and at the same time, it is a temperature, sharpness and wisdom image of Peng Dehuai. On the other hand, in this unique perspective, the film realizes the three-dimensional shaping of the characters by comparing Peng Dehuai with different roles;

For example, compared with Li Qiwei, Liang Xingchu, Deng Hua and others, Peng Zong’s true feelings of complicated entanglements in his heart. Through the contrast and contrast of these characters, Peng Dehuai’s image in the film is shaped to be full of flesh and blood. At the same time, it is also this unique perspective of expression. The film vividly embodies and vividly expresses the complex relationship between characters and the outstanding highlights in the whole War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.

Generally speaking, the film Crossing the Yalu River is a stunning masterpiece full of passion and sincere feelings, and it is a high-level, powerful and temperature-resistant blockbuster to resist US aggression and aid Korea, which embodies the strength of "Made in Taiwan".

The appearance of this film not only enriches the image expression of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, but also provides an excellent text for the general audience to understand the history of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea more deeply and comprehensively.

The ideology, artistry and commerciality of the film have been highly unified, and its social and market benefits are expected, and its creative experience is worth pondering and exploring. (Special Commentator: Hu Zhifeng)
