Actual Chinese kino:
-John Woo's entire filmography
-Shaw Brothers' entire catalogue
-Ditto Golden Harvest
-Most of Seasonal Film Corporation's catalogue, too
-Any number of Hong Kong category III films from other studios like Queen of Temple Street, Naked Killer, Crazy Love, Daughter of Darkness, Nude Fear, etc.
-Select films by Ang Lee

There's a pattern here.

Chinese costume dramas are inexplicable to me. Maybe Zhang Yimou's big star-studded spectacles are OK for the production/costume design, use of colors, Gong Li's titty display etc. 1 look at archival pix, Qing China's palace ladies and men were NOT good looking, the eunuch were disgusting/scrawny. Meanwhile, Meiji Japan's normies/NPCs were well-fed and dressed in nice all-cotton clothes. At least Hong Kong's costume movies are aware they're doing fantasy (usually wuxia or just comedy.) China's history is Elysium pushed to the extremes.

When Chen Kaige/Zhang Yimou first began (Yellow Earth, Farewell my concubine, Raise the red lantern, To live), it was similar (less-propaganda) to the 60s "thaw" in USSR.

What happened there? I thought they were more or less still allowed to produce without too much hasstle but it seems even though it's legal to have a soul they just adopted the soullessness. HK cinema has dried up since 2006 twenty years ago. There were a couple of old timers kept on going for a little while but it's now well and over.
>>
>>223350567
Cai Chusheng...add Zheng Zunli. Republican China still had normal people, but following their career is depressing. From decent attempts to treat Chinese middle/lower class as human beings with struggles and potential, with beauty of the language/song, to war-constrained propaganda (still OK in fighting Japs to survive), finally to being persecuted to death during Cultural Revolution. It's disgusting. But going through the equally disgusting war of attrition by globalist-captured regimes (in MOST countries), the process of these people's dehumanization isn't an outlier. It's why NOdyssey is sanitized BS about the use of power.

No, not really. You can argue cinematic quality has dropped globally over the decades but here we are not talking about a slow burn out here. HK was out there making kino and suddenly dropped, in a transition period of barely three years in the later part of the first decade of the century. It was all the more noticeably because their heyday was the mid 80s to early 00s, and then back to oblivion.
>>223350873
It's similar to what happened in Czechia which has all of its high cinema in the mid 60s and suddenly nothing after the soviet reinstated thought crime. At least in their case you could understand there suddenly were soviet tanks prominently in the streets and political commissions "interviewing" all the artists and intellectuals in the country for several months. HK just complied without even needing the boot of their face, they went chasing the official chink market at the cost of losing all artistry. It was probably just greed. Their producers aren't even Jewish.

I know it may be hard to believe because of how prevalent that stuff is in ((news)) articles and on social media, but the average American does not see comic book movies as "high art". there are still Americans out there making actual good movies, but I would say our peak was the 70's

It has more to do with how China consumes media. Movies often had a more feminine lean to them because it was house wives who had the time to watch them. That really only changed in the 70’s and 80’s with the Kung-Fu craze. Television was the big money maker in China and still is with Chinese streaming services.

I occasionally watch this Chinese chick on IG – it's hard to tell if she's 18 or 40 because all the girls use face & voice filters. She lives on (in?) Hainan with her dogs and elderly family and basically, she cooks and eats anything that moves and more (besides her dog, although I don't think even it is safe).
