As a participant in the New Wave of Hong Kong,a witnesses of Taiwan's new films,as a actress,director,singer,producer,screenwriter,Sylvia Chang is moving in different regions,moving between different identities,being in different regions,and being in different roles,she never stopped.This article takes Sylvia Chang 's director's work as the research object,and puts Sylvia Chang 's film creation under the perspective of cultural studies.It is divided into four chapters.According to her different creative themes,combined with the corresponding historical context,the different regions are linked.In order to gain more insight and more comprehensive understanding of Sylvia Chang's works.The first chapter is the combing of the historical context of director Sylvia Chang 's creation.Taking the two dimensions of time and space as the framework.At the time level,Sylvia Chang 's works are concerned.Whether the subject matter,expression form or ideology is constantly changing with the evolution of history;at the spatial level,the creation of his works has been swayed into the flowing regions,embedded in complex relationships.Therefore,this chapter will combine the social historical environment and individual experience,in order to obtain a more comprehensive and more dimension of Sylvia Chang 's creative context,which is conducive to more indepth exploration of its creative text.The second chapter will explore the gender politics and sexuality politics in Sylvia Chang 's works from a gender perspective.The relationship between the sexes has always been the core issue of Sylvia Chang 's works,so this chapter will explore the shaping of female characters and male characters in Sylvia Chang 's text.In the shaping of female characters,Sylvia Chang turned her attention to women of all ages,taking care of women at different stages of life from the perspective of her women.Focusing on men who are in contrast to women,Sylvia Chang pulls men from social space back to family space.The male characters present the characteristics of “castration” as a whole,and analyzes the social and cultural connotations and history behind “castration” crux.In addition to men and women in the family,Sylvia Chang's film also has a classic character image - the “another woman” outside the family.This is ridiculed by the traditional values on the edge of morality,stigmatized and stereotyped.The identity role of the impression,under the shape of Sylvia Chang multi-dimensional,presents another look.The third chapter wants to focus on other expressions in Sylvia Chang 's works outside the gender perspective.Although the gender perspective is a point that Sylvia Chang can't ignore,her work tries to express not just the gender politics.I will focus on another key word in Sylvia Chang 's work--identity,discuss the direct discussion about identity in Sylvia Chang 's film and the potential text about identity,and discuss the social environment of Hong Kong and Taiwan in the 1990 s,and analyze the specific era reflected by his works.The identity anxiety and political confusion,and through the horizontal comparison of the relevant texts of the same period,to explore the uniqueness of Sylvia Chang 's creation.The focus of the fourth chapter is that with the decline of the Hong Kong and Taiwan film market,whether it is regional film or cross-regional film production,it presents a different cultural appeal and production concept from the macro level of Chinese film creation.In this case,the film creation in this period has a tendency to shift northward.Sylvia Chang's " Murmur of the Hearts " presents the characteristics of regional film production during this period,with obvious geographical indications,emphasizing the display of localization experience in localization.However,from a historical perspective,cross-border cooperation is an inevitable Strategy for regional co-prosperity.Whether it is the mainland,Hong Kong or Taiwanese directors,they have gained new expressions in the convergence of cultural identity."Love education" is an attempt to adapt to the trend.The film conveys Sylvia Chang's depiction of the common experience of Chinese society and his conversion to Chinese history and culture.
