Can Chinese film has more possibility?

Bruce Lee

Recently years, more and more Chinese directors bring their movies to many western film fests and compete for awards with others. However, many of them are Chinese Kong fu movies. Bruce Lee is the most famous Kong fu star in the world; also he is the first Kong fu star I know in Hollywood. He introduces the Chinese Kong fu to the world, especially to the western world. His movies also are very successful and made hundreds millions dollars in the world. After him, Jackie Chan and Jet Lee are the new generation of Chinese Kong fu movies. Their movies are even more popular in western world and make more money. So, Chinese directors are starting to make much more Kong fu movies. I understand that they know people like Kong fu movies and want to share the market baskets, but keeping make the same style movie is not the way to do that. Hollywood does not produce Hollywood Blockbuster to the world; they also have many different kinds of films. Watching movies with the same subject, even a Chinese will feel tired and boring. If you want to introduce Chinese culture to the world, there are many options not just only the Chinese Kong fu.

Friedn equal to Money

"The Social Network" is directed by David Fincher. In this movie, He made many great scenes. The most impressive scene that I remember is the law suit use to explain why Mark Zuckerburg needs his Eduardo and how he did. The scene begins with a question that Eduardo’s lawyer asked “when did you come to Eduardo with the idea for Facebook?” Then, the scene flashes back twice to another law suit which is between Mark and the twins with some questions. However, Mark did not answer any questions directly. Now, the scene flashes back to the Jewish party night to tell people the question was asked at the first place. Mark went to the party and wanted to tell Eduardo the idea of facebook. Before he even said something, Eduardo told him that he got punched by the Phoenix the club Mark always wants to get in. People can tell Mark is jealousy by looking his face. Then, they went outside to discuss Mark’s idea just because Mark can’t stare at that loop of Niagara Falls. Notice, it was 20 degrees outside. When Mark was going to tell the why he want to do this, the scene flashes back to the Eduardo’s lawsuit and the answer came out from Eduardo “It would be exclusive.” Then, there are two flashbacks to tell people how both of them feel about the idea of facebook. Eduardo wondered why Mark was coming to him but not his roommates. The scene flashes back to the conversation and use it to imply the reason- money. At the end of the conversation, Mark said “It probably was diversity thing, but so what?” Now, people can see what kind of person Mark is. The flashbacks are very important to draw people into the story and the dialogue implies Mark’s personality.

                  The social network

The social network is a very good movie. The story is about Mark Zuckerberg and facebook. The story begins with a really fast conversation between Mark and her girlfriend. Mark was taking about two different topics at same and his react about his girlfriend’ education level (his girlfriend goes to BU). The director used this conversation to imply that he is a very smart and self-conceit. The story is leading by two different lawsuits which show the really talented cutting skill. For instance, when Mark talked about the party at the Jewish fraternities called Alpha Epsilon Pi, the frame go back to that party. Mark went to the party and came to Eduardo. When Mark was going to tell why he wants to found facebook, the frame suddenly cut back to the lawsuit and the reason came out from Eduardo. This makes more dramatic conversation during the lawsuit.
