Sb: I have seen Red Sorghum and Hero.
Sa: What were they about?
Sb: Red Sorghum told a love story in old days and the resisting to invaders, while Hero is a martial arts film, telling a story that a true hero would sacrifice himself for love and country events. Sa: What do you think of the films?
Sb: Red Sorghum was the first film going out of the country and getting international rewards. It admired humanity and paid a tribute to the ethos. But in some way, it showed the poorest side in our country to the world, which made me, as well as many people, unhappy and even angry. I think Hero is better. Though it had no complex story, it showed people a spirit of real hero. The scenes in the film were very spectacular and the color was wonderful.
Sample dialogues 2
Sa: Have you seen any of Zhang Yimou’s films?
Sb: No. Not any.
Sa: While, have you seen some other films?
Sb: Certainly I have.
Sa: Can you tell me whose films you like?
Sb: A world without thieves, which was directed by Feng Xiaogang.
Sa: Oh. But why do you like this film?
Sb: This was a scenario film, describing a world full of thieves under the topic of “without thieves”. But Shagen’s simple ness and kindness made thieves shame, uncovering the conscience and kind natures of human beings. The film also showed an aspiration for a pure and “without thieves” world. I love the simple folkway(社会习俗) at the screen place, too.

S…
T: Well, this question is too general. So, let’s start lik e this:

Sa: Lu Chuan directed the film and a group of good actors joined in the screen such as Duo Jiebu, Zhang Lei, Ma Zhanlin, and so on.

Sa: It is an adventure film, telling a story of human struggling for survives in the extremity during the fighting of hunting and protecting Tibetan antelopes. The story happens in Kekexili in the middle of Tibet, based on a real one. This is a film about life and belief, caring for human being and nature. It’s not only a film but also life and a fighting. So I think it’s really the best film.
