Although the narrative style and image language of this new work are still Jia's consistent style, I believe that audiences who like his past works will still like it, and those who have no feelings or dislike his works will not change. But on this basis, even if Jia didn't break through, he didn't seem to want to break through, but he still brought some new ideas and changes.
The film "Jianghu Children" was well received. While watching the plot, the audience was shocked by the scenes and dialects in the film. Where "Jianghu Children" was filmed has also become a concern of the audience. In addition, it is a great challenge for actors who can only speak Mandarin to try Shanxi dialect for the first time. Generally speaking, the results presented did not disappoint the audience.
In the eyes of director Jia, rivers and lakes are more rivers and lakes full of ordinary people's colors in our daily life. As he said, "Jianghu is not an image to me, but a real existence. People get along with each other, which occurs in each other's emotions and is a kind of understanding. It is invisible, corresponding to rivers and lakes, and it is a world of human feelings. It has no inheritance, no ceremony, and it is in daily life. "
Although the title of the film is Jianghu, the Jianghu children are not a replica of the Hong Kong underworld films, nor are they about no way back. The characters in the film don't say the word Jianghu every once in a while, but express that "where there are people, there are rivers and lakes". If you don't understand, it's because you are no longer a Jianghu person.
