As human beings moved from the agricultural civilization to the industrial civilization thousands of years ago,continuous progress and modern life are indisputable facts.However,the accelerated development of society and the convenience of life are actually at the cost of the deterioration of the natural environment.Air pollution,The hollow ozone layer,frequent earthquakes and tsunamis,the earth is alerting,beating,and even retaliating against mankind with various geological and climate disasters.Disaster film is a reflection of the real phenomenon of human beings at the expense of the natural environment in the process of developing modern society.It is also a reflection of the acceleration and severity of the deterioration of the current ecological environment.In this way,it will awaken the world,awaken the public's ecological concept,and achieve the goal of reducing ecological damage and protecting the natural environment together.After entering the 21 st century,there are more and more types of natural disasters in domestic disaster movies,but compared to Hollywood disaster movies,theyare still rare,and there are only a handful of ones that can be recognized by the public.It is also because of the vacancy of natural disaster-type disaster films in the Chinese film market.The future of such disaster films in the Chinese market is very worth looking forward to.This article uses case analysis to investigate domestic natural disaster movies,sorts out the changes of domestic disaster movies since its birth,and selects the film "1942" as a case.From the perspective of narratology,it is found that Chinese disaster movies usually adopt omniscience from the perspective of narrative.The perspective,the limitation of time and the narrative space draw closer,and the linear narrative structure opens a new perspective on the narrative strategy of domestic disaster films.Most of the domestic disaster films are adapted from real events.They are documentary films.The film gradually turns the narrative subject to small characters and uses multiple character lines to intersperse the narrative.However,the uniform and patterned creation has compressed the film's creative space,and the theme has a strong color.Weak technical narratives and weak ecological views conveyed in movies are also the shortcomings of domestic disastermovies.According to the research,the enhancement of visual effects technology and the enhancement of the visibility of domestic disaster movies through technical narratives complement each other to create a series of "disaster world" movies that belong to China and to explore the future development trend of domestic disaster movies with the times.Exploring the types of disaster movies that belong to China,abandoning the copying of foreign disaster movies,and looking for new models for humans,the earth,and the environment in the movies,can not only build the brand of Chinese disaster movies,but also build a complete ecological outlook,Seek a new form of harmonious symbiosis between human beings and the earth and the natural environment.
