"Huang Fei hong " series movie is an outstanding representative in the martial arts film,its development probably is divided into three periods of Tak-Hing Kwan,Jackie Chan and Tsui Hark,forgive,endure,the filial piety,the etiquette ideas in the confucian ethics view in each period, all have its explain.In the period of Tak-Hing Kwan, the interpretation of filial is original and old-fashioned,for observing mourning for the parents, would rather give up their love, oneself be"person"'s emotion bend from in father of"filial piety".In after of Huang Fei hong series, the father reserved it as the fatherly authority and position still, but it increased a kind of humour and peaceably between the father and son, not only sons and daughters show filial obedience to their parents, parents to sons and daughters also increased a comprehension and tolerance.The confucianism pays attention to"personal not desire, not in person" , the thought of forgetting old grudge to the person, forgiving other people more, help other people, forgive the other people can be seen everywhere in Huang Fei hong series movie.In the film of《Martial Art Master Wong Fai Hung》, face the enemy who have killed his senior, Huang Fei hong can also treat him with tolerance, in the urgent time pulls his enemy a pair of, at last, his well virtuous influence Shi bing wei, let him understand the true meaning of Martial Arts.The confucianism usually claims harmony is precious,emphasis on self-control, can't with the patience to chaos, need to think for the general situation, Huang Fei hong series movie respected patience and humility but avoid conflicting.The way of Huang Fei hong hit persons usually is soft, the weapon he use also is umbrella that defensive etc., always need not knife sword and other sharp weapon, because the purpose of Huang Fei hong is an arrestment to fight, not give rise to dispute.He still often educates his disciple,keep calm when you meet a matter,can't by simply relying on force to solve the problem.In the film of《Rivals of Kung Fu》, after the ghost feet seven was beaten and be saved back,Huang Fei hong said to him:"The malicious result of fighting is pain and death……patience is a kind of knowledge,you need remember firmly".The"endure" in Huang fei hong series movie is forgive others as much as possible,it's the symbol of virtue, broad-minded and far-sighted.Etiquette is the rule that should be followed by confucianist when they process social interaction, this kind of social interaction has difference in high and low,young and old,up and down,far near order of sequence.Huang Fei hong who was played by Tak-Hing Kwan is a serious elder image, so the teacher and pupil relation is orthodox, pupil only has respect and fear to his teacher, obey his teacher sincerely with the order, nearly objection.When it comed to Jackie Chan and Tsui Hark, although the teacher and father is still the head of the family,the teacher and pupil relation and the father and son relation increased many factors with equal and humour, the female image in the movie is also gradually plentiful and full.Historical Huang Fei hong has already indeeded confirm to have patriotic resistance to the invaders, in Huang Fei hong series movie,the feeling of loving the family also becomes one of the performance topics indispensability in the film, in Tsui Hark's Huang Fei hong series, the feeling of loving the family is particularly outstanding.In the film o《fOnce Upon a Time in China VI》, Huang Fei hong envies the Indian having his own house, and the Indian also loves his own home town, swear he will return to his home town one day.Although they have language barrier, they are sentimentally attached to their hometowns deep.Home here, can extend to a race, a nation, the love and attachment to the family is love and attachment to the motherland.In Tsui Hark's Huang Fei hong series,not only reserved in the good tradition of confucian ethics view, but also reflected the unreasonable composition which imprisonment of human nature in the traditional confucian ethics, and try to build the cultural and moral bridge between the Chinese and Western.Traditional Huang Fei hong was imaged to a perfect person who help others and invincible, he guards securely traditional ethics, the style is virtuous and discreet in speech and manner.Tsui Hark's Huang Fei hong series no longer ties down by traditional ethics, presuming to face an own true emotion, pursue own of love, he would also jealous, would also angry.The person in Tsui Hark's film has his own feelings and dares to love and hate, as a result,it seems to be truer and have human interest more, also can get the fancy and the approbation of the large audience.Tsui Hark reflects the blind loyalty of traditional confucianism, under the influence of the confucian"house world" thought, many people connect "loyalty" with "patriotic" together, in their eyes, the king is a national symbol, if you want to be patriotic you will be loyalty. Nalanyuanshu was such a tragedy person, he was a person with heroism,on the other hand, he can't get away from blind loyalty to the Qing government, the dead is his final outcome.Tsui Hark's Huang Fei hong wasn't rest on its laurels like other people, but study new-born thing continuously.Tsui Hark put Huang Fei hong who was the representative of Confucian ethics and the father who was the symbol of Christian priest on the same front, explain the two can blend absorb each other.Show us that the Chinese confucian ethics and western morals culture, not only has the conflict and misunderstanding, but also can communicate and repair with each other with the fusion.
