[Objective] 100 Hong Kong film classic (after reunification) byrds was released at 23: 27 on February 8, 2009.
Time flies, ten years have gone by, and before you know it, Hong Kong movies have been with us for another ten years. Perhaps, you no longer like Hong Kong films; Perhaps, you still support Hong Kong movies as always; Or you never liked her. But it doesn't matter. The important thing is that Hong Kong movies have changed a lot in the past ten years. Let's follow the footsteps of history and feel the classic Hong Kong films for decades. From the list summarized by the author, we can probably sort out a thread and see the ups and downs that Hong Kong films have experienced in the past ten years.
1997——
Urgent need, good people, the birth of the prefix, South China Sea Thirteen Lang, high alert, Song Dynasty, Xiao Gan, Spring Breeze, Hong Kong production, self-combing
1997 Hong Kong film industry has not changed much. There are many excellent films this year, especially literary films in Hong Kong this year. Song Dynasty with big budget and made in Hong Kong with ultra-small budget. They all won the heavyweight awards in the next year's Golden Awards Competition. The Self-Combed Woman directed by Zhang Zhiliang focuses on the self-combed women in Guangdong in the 1940s. This is the first film specifically aimed at this special group, and it is also a film about the love between women. The orientation of the film is to praise pure love.
This year, Tsui Hark stopped showing off his martial arts and began to delve into his favorite animation themes. Ghost Story is a classic work of Tsui Hark in 1980s. This time, Tsui Hark reinterpreted this beautiful folklore in the form of an animated film. His imagination is even more unconstrained, because there is no limit to the expressive force of animation.
1997 The Good Man, which was released in early 1997, earned more than HK$ 45 million at the box office in the New Year. A year later, he failed to match his opponent and became the box office champion of Hong Kong films this year. Since then, Jackie Chan has never sat in this position. This is Jackie Chan's last magnificent performance in Hong Kong.
1998——
Dark Flower, who am I? The happier I am, the more depraved I am. I look forward to unexpected and extremely repeated criminals. The storm dominates the world. I love you for 8 hours every day, city of glass. There were many fireworks last year.
From 65438 to 0998, the Hong Kong film industry continued to decline, and the overall output and quality of Hong Kong films did not make much breakthrough. Du Qifeng's image as a galaxy continues to be marginal, paying attention to both business and fashion. The gloomy image style is gradually accepted by many audiences, and a group of European and American fans are gradually cultivated.
After entering Hollywood, Lin Lingdong returned to Hong Kong to show his skills. This time, his achievement is Extreme Confession, a hot commercial film led by the younger generation of actors, which has approached Hollywood blockbusters in effect.
Director Zhang Wanting released her new film "city of glass" this year, a story about the times and love, because the hero Dawn just made a hit with "Sweet Honey" in 1996, and similar themes also made the audience mistakenly think it was a sequel to "Sweet Honey". The film had to be lost, and the box office and awards didn't get much.
Jackie Chan lost to Ekin Cheng and Aaron Kwok in 1998, but Who am I failed to win another box office champion for Jackie Chan, because the appearance of Unifying the World broke the situation that Stephen Chow, Chow Yun Fat and Jackie Chan led the annual box office in turn since 15.
1999——
Glass bottles, king of comedy, O three-in-one files, thousands of words, heaven and earth, meteor legends, dark battles, fierce eyes, gunfire and incense on the west road.
1999, the annual output of Hong Kong films reached 162, but the first round box office of Hong Kong films failed to reach HK$ 500 million. 1982, the total box office of Hong Kong movies reached HK$ 400 million. Judging from the figures alone, the development of Hong Kong films has taken a big step backwards. Crude production is the biggest killer of Hong Kong films' box office decline, but there are still many responsible Hong Kong filmmakers who try their best to dedicate high-quality Hong Kong films to the audience and let them return to the cinema to buy tickets.
Stephen Chow topped the box office this year with king of comedy, with a total income of just over HK$ 29 million. Compared with the HK$ 4 1.53 million earned by the champion Fengyun last year, the downward trend is already very obvious.
Du Qifeng, Xu Anhua and Chen Guo have all performed well this year, among which Du Qifeng is undoubtedly the most striking. In the Hong Kong film industry in the new century, Du Qifeng is the director with the most stable strength, the strongest local representation and the most lasting local film status in Hong Kong.
Directed by Liu Weiqiang and starring Liu Qingyun and Wu Zhenyu, the O-Record triad archives continued the craze of young and dangerous people, but got rid of the bad luck of following the trend. The O-Record triad archives became a brief historical image of the development of Hong Kong gangs after World War II.
Zhang Zhiliang's Meteor Remnants, with the Asian financial turmoil as the background, tells the story of the human warmth of Hong Kong people after the crisis. The film is starring Leslie Cheung, who took the initiative to reduce his salary, starred in Meteor Trail, and supported Hong Kong films at a low tide with practical actions.
2000——
In the year 2000, Juliet and Liang Shanbo, the king of guns, were lonely men and few women, loved Okinawa, and the rivers and lakes were in emergency, in the mood for love, drifting down the river, durian fluttering, lucky.
In 2000, the Hong Kong film industry was silent, Jackie Chan, Chow Yun Fat and John Woo all went to Hollywood, and Stephen Chow was still brewing his new film. The shrinking film market has led to a sharp decline in the production level of many films.
In Hong Kong, flowers inside the wall and incense outside the wall have always been accepted by the minority. Wong Kar-wai continues to emerge in the international film industry. At the Cannes Film Festival in May, Wong Kar-wai entered the main competition unit with "In the Mood for Love", pushing the leading actor Tony Leung Chiu Wai to the throne of Cannes Film Emperor.
Chen Guo continued his literary style in Hongkong. Durian Fluttering, the first work of the prostitute trilogy, won important awards at the Academy Awards and the Golden Horse Awards, but the box office of the film still had little effect. Winning the prize, winning the favor of art fans, gave the director some comfort.
An anti-Jianghu movie "Jianghu Emergency" directed by Lin Chaoxian was released this year. This heterogeneous gangster film, full of black humor, absurdity and whimsy, has become a masterpiece of gangsters in recent years.
200 1——
Unexpected spy, heavy police, forever, slim men and women, shaolin soccer, full-time black boy, biography of Shushan, murder-buying, the story of McDull, dreaming of loving a king, and the ghost world.
200 1 Hong Kong movies finally overshadowed Hollywood blockbusters. The success of shaolin soccer's 60 million box office has inspired all Hong Kong filmmakers. Stephen Chow hid his efforts for nearly three years, and finally let everyone see his real strength.
In order to fight against Hollywood special effects blockbusters, Tsui Hark made a similar prequel "Biography of Shushan" in order to commemorate the "New Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" which developed in his early years, and created the Biography of Shushan with the most special effects in Hong Kong film history. Hong Kong's box office only received 1 1 10,000, and Tsui Hark's scenery is no longer there.
Peng Haoxiang, a cutting-edge director, released "Buy Murder", which is the most surprising black comedy produced in Hong Kong since 10. This film pays tribute to the classic Hong Kong film and the old French film Lonely Black Boy in many places.
200 1 A little pig in Hong Kong inspired many Hong Kong people after the financial turmoil. This is the best original animated film McDull Story in Hong Kong in recent years. Through the growth and struggle experience of McDull, a pig from a single-parent family, an indomitable and indomitable pig image has been established for Hong Kong, and McDull has also become the most popular local cartoon character.
2002——
Interactive ghosts, want to fly, inner senses, hell, Hong Kong has a Hollywood, home of the night, my family has an East Lion, walking firearms, infernal affairs, golden rooster.
At the end of 2002, a movie Infernal Affairs made Hong Kong filmmakers and audiences jump for joy. This is a commercial blockbuster that rarely relies on the plot in recent years. There are no hot scenes and dazzling fights. The exciting storyline attracted a large audience into the cinema. Many people regard Infernal Affairs as a symbol of the revival of Hong Kong movies, but Hong Kong movies have not been revived by a movie.
Chen Guo completed the second part of his "Prostitute Trilogy", Hong Kong has Hollywood, starring Zhou Xun, a mainland actress. Zhou Xun's outstanding acting skills doomed her to become the backbone of China film industry in the future.
Chen Kexin is not only an excellent director, but also a very capable filmmaker. He combined Korean and Thai directors with local filmmakers in Hong Kong to produce a series of Asian horror films Night. A film is divided into three parts, one of which is directed by the director of each country, and the part that Chen Kexin is responsible for is "Night House", which won unanimous praise from critics and audiences after its launch. The successful release of Three Nights in Asia gave birth to Three Nights 2, but the production of Three Nights 2 was also up to standard.
Independent production of the small-budget film "Fire" won the support of Hong Kong filmmakers, and many directors personally made guest appearances in the film. This is a very bold and avant-garde film, which tells the good and evil of human nature from the perspective of an old gun.
2003——
A century of harmony, Superman is moving, the next stop ... Days later, PTU, Thousand Machine Changes, two heroes, a strong man, Fu Bo, a big man, Infernal Affairs II, which I can't forget, Infernal Affairs III is endless.
Liu Weiqiang and Siu Fai Mak, a new diamond group, won the appreciation of the top management of investment companies after releasing a popular Infernal Affairs last year. In 2003, they made persistent efforts and released the prequels Infernal Affairs 2 and Infernal Affairs 3. Infernal Affairs 2 follows the line of literary gangster film, close to Godfather 2, with a high standard, which is rare in Hong Kong films in recent years. Infernal Affairs 3 is a bit mysterious, too responsible for the crisscross of time and space, more experimental than ornamental, but its strong cast still makes the audience willing to buy tickets. Infernal Affairs 3 became the box office champion in 2003.
There were 77 Hong Kong films shown in cinemas in the whole year, a sharp drop compared with last year, the lowest level in the past decade, and the total box office revenue naturally decreased accordingly. The plight of Hong Kong films is self-evident.
In the depressed Hong Kong film market, Du Qifeng is still in the upper reaches. He is the most valuable director resource in Hong Kong 10 years. "Big Guy" is a fantasy work and the biggest surprise Hong Kong film this year. It is also reasonable to win the best film in the second year of the Hong Kong Film Awards.
Director Tung shing Yee returned to the warm line of literature and art, and a movie "Never Forget" made Cecilia Cheung shine as an acting superstar, and Cecilia Cheung became the brightest star since 10, a veritable idol power school.
2004——
2046, Jianghu, night in Mong Kok, big event, new never admit defeat, Judo Dragon and Tiger List, Kung Fu, A- 1 headline, Hainan chicken rice, butterfly,
In 2004, the film industry in China was particularly lively. Although Hong Kong films are still struggling in the quagmire, their international influence is increasing day by day. Hong Kong Wushu instruction has become a brand in the international film industry, even a guarantee of box office. In the European and American film circles, if a film is joined by Hong Kong Wuzhi, the producers will definitely publicize it to increase the box office income. Yuan Heping and Yuan Kui have become the hottest martial arts fingers in Hollywood, which has also brought a large number of Hong Kong-style martial arts fingers into Hollywood. And more European and American fans began to watch the early Hong Kong Kung Fu movie classics. This kung fu craze is getting hotter and hotter, but now there is no sign of improvement in the decline of Hong Kong movies.
Wong Kar-wai is a banner of Hong Kong literary films, and the Chinese film industry is also one of the best directors. His five-year "2046" was finally released this year. Although the film caught the last bus to Cannes in May, it was suspected to please European audiences. Wong Kar-wai's works failed to shine in Cannes as in the past, and finally came back empty-handed.
In recent years, Xingye, who has been insisting on slow work and fine work, has finally reappeared on the big screen. A Kung Fu movie was fully released in China, and cinemas once again queued up to buy movie tickets for a long time. Kung Fu hit a new box office in Hong Kong, earning more than 6,654,380+million yuan, which made Stephen Chow once again set a peak that it had to climb by itself.
2005——
Myth, seven swords, the house of fury, the underworld, the initial d, precocious puberty, the fork in the road, the song of everlasting regret, the sage of epilepsy, what if? Love, don't kill the wolf until you are older.
In 2005, the number of films released in Hong Kong has dropped sharply to 57, reaching the level of Hong Kong during World War II. In 1970s, Shaw Brothers produced more movies every year.
In 2005, the China film was born a hundred years ago, and the China film as a whole showed a prosperous situation, while the Hong Kong film was constantly losing power in the commercial field. Cooperation with the Mainland is the only way out for Hong Kong films.
In 2005, the box office champion in Hong Kong was The Initial D starring Jay Chou, which earned more than HK$ 37 million. In 2005, the box office champion in Hong Kong was the western film Harry? Potter and the Goblet of Fire grossed more than 46 million pounds in Hong Kong, which is a chilling gap.
Unlike Hong Kong's sluggish film market, Myth and Seven Swords both earned just over 65.438+million at the local box office in Hong Kong, while in the Mainland, Myth earned nearly 100 million yuan at the box office, while Seven Swords also earned more than 60 million at the box office in the Mainland, making the mainland market the largest exporter of Hong Kong films.
The lack of newcomers has become another pain point for the Hong Kong film industry. In 2005, Feng Delun released his second directorial work "House of Wrath", which was unanimously recognized by all walks of life. The film was also exported to Europe and the United States and other countries, with good sales. Donnie Yen also released his new film "Kill the Wolf" this year, which inadvertently set off a new wave of action movies. The success of House of Fury and Kill the Wolf shows that Hong Kong movies still lack new motivation and driving force, not because the outside world is tired of Hong Kong movies.
2006——
Huo Yuanjia, ink attack, rhinoceros photo, Isabella, exclusive try to love, Baby Project, underworld 2: Harmony is the most precious, hurting the city, released? One by one, father and son,
The theme of 2006 is return. Jet Li, Chow Yun Fat, Tan Jiaming and Jackie Chan all fit the theme of "return" with different postures.
Tan Jiaming was the standard-bearer of the New Wave Movement in 1980s. He shot many classic works in his early years. 18 later, Tan Jiaming finally returned with honor. His first work, Father and Son, was quite impressive. Although it didn't win much at the box office, it will show its great power in the major awards after the second half of the year.
Ye Nianchen's latest film "Exclusive try to love" is like a breeze in the Hong Kong film industry. It is a light-hearted film in the form of short stories about love literature and art, which inadvertently won nearly 800 Hong Kong dollars at the box office. Ye Nianchen will make great achievements in romantic films.
In 2006, the local general manager of Hong Kong released 565,438+0 Hong Kong films, hitting a new record low. In 2007, the situation is still not optimistic. The key to the crisis of Hong Kong movies still comes from the inside, and external help alone is of little effect. Hong Kong filmmakers must turn the tide by themselves and bring Hong Kong films back to life. Mourning table/text
