Male Images In The Mainland Films In The Globlization Context

On the doorpost of the ancient Greek temple of Apollo, engraved with two lines of Proverbs: "know yourself and "Do not over-everything" .Over two thousand years, mankind has been working to explore and enrich the connotations of these two phrases, and there is no limit. This article investigated the image of men in the film since the wave of globalization sweeping across the mainland, from which combed four kinds of male image full of times features: The Lost Lamb, father, traitor walking at the edge of the society, peripatetic and searcher who laugh at life. This article outline the characteristics of their image and then reveal their aesthetic and cultural significance, through which explore the cultural ecology and the crisis of life of contemporary China.A, lost lamb. Old China did not know where to sail like a little boat in ocean. In modern times several generations of intellectuals introduced of science and democracy as a beacon after had researched the Western. But it was a repeat of buying box while refusing to accept pearl. The essence of Western culture is more important divinity in addition to rationality. Human's self-discovery under the guidance of the rationality has made some progress after giving up the care of God,, but cannot save their own evil. Liu Simeng in "Years Without Epidemic" has been aware of independent himself, but because of the absolute self-center, he become a rogue scholar walking on the selfish wrong path. as. Yang Hongqi in" Gimme Kudos " lives in the eyes of others, losing his self awareness as the effect of the mass media.B, the image of father. Patriarchal civilization was critiqued as early as the period of May 4th movement, feminist also doubt it now. What features do the fathers in contemporary screen display? Laoer in "Kala, my dog" become a qualified parts and components in the machine of the industrial age, but he lost the ability to be a father. The mutilated father cause the case that the posterity cannot grow up favorably. Gaotian Aangyi in "Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles" and a retired rural mail carrier act as sacred father by treating the posterity as the future, that is, assume the burden of an agent of God in this world. Human beings can never survive without a father, instead of blindly deconstruction, we should reconstruct a sacred father. C, the traitor walking at the edge of the society. The world is not perfect, so people will not stop the pursuit of ideals, in which the rebel is one of the ways. For his freedom, Qiu Rubai in"Mei Lanfang," neither attach to the vested interests ,nor make kitsch, leading a laid-back lives. But he can not avoid from the fortune that the rebels transform to underdog, showing a strong inertia of the tradition and the difficulty of the transformation. Alan in "East Palace, West Palace" and Chen Dieyi in "Farewell, My Concubine" all rebel to the sexual proneness for the pursuit of true love and self-independence, saying some words for those whose voices has long been obscured. For freedom and love, humanity struggle very difficultly, not to mention that treason has never been an easy thing.D, peripatetic and searcher who laugh at life. Traitors can become a companions of the leader, as the dominant person can swash and menace the others by the way of punishing and regulating the traitors. Hence, it maybe the effective way to relieve of suffering by laugh at life, for human have no other choices. For example, Guyan in "After Separation" indulge in and laugh at daily life after recognizing the meaningless of the life as well as Mashan eventually just find laughter.Respecting for differences the pursuit of pluralism are post-modern thought's primary goal, so is gender role. As a result, we certainly affirm the neutral beauty, being tolerant with queer. But this does not mean ablating the distinction between men and women, on the contrary, we encourage the difference between boys and girls. Men should bear more responsibility, displaying a kind of their own masculinity. How do human deal with the predicament without the presence of the God? The men should be duty-bound to the first to answer. Unfortunately, in the mainland films, the situation that men are weaker than women still exist popularly, although no lack of the traitors, the searchers, and the peripatetic, but most of them are weak losers or the mutilated father. As for the saver to rescue entire human suffering, we need continue waiting.
