If you want to imitate a movie with the "Asian movie style in the 1970s", what are the most indispensable factors?Quentin Tarantino answered with his Kill Bill: Vengeance.Not only is the whole story centered on revenge, but the story of Mizuki Ishii Yulian interspersed in it is still related to revenge.It wouldn't be enough "Seventies" without revenge. The wave of revenge movies that swept through the 1970s actually started in the late 1960s. , "One-armed Swordsman", "New One-armed Swordsman", until "Happy Forest", "Ma Yongzhen", "Revenge", "Thirteen Taibao", throughout the 1970s, Hong Kong movies were all about revenge.This trend even extended to the 1980s, and spread into Taiwanese movies, such as "The Greatest Flower", ... Mainland China was half a beat behind, and the wave of revenge fell in the movies of the 1980s. "The Heroine Lu Siniang", "The Lonely Murderer", "The Golden Dart and Huang Tianba", when the head of the traitor fell to the ground, the ending song followed.

Not only in Hong Kong, but also in Japan, there are "Sura Snow Princess" and "Female Prisoner 701" series by Meiko, the goddess of revenge, who are dedicated to telling stories of revenge.The story in one episode is almost the same as the other. The goddess is running between being framed and revenge after changing clothes, and the audience still talks about it.In the United States, there is a trend of "controlling violence with violence" started by "The Raptor".

Some people attribute the turbulent revenge frenzy in the 1970s to the tension brought about by the Vietnam War, Watergate, inflation, and the energy crisis.But this explanation may be like the so-called positive and negative news in the stock market. In the rising period, you can always find good news to assist the wind, and in the falling period, you can always find gloomy bad news as a scapegoat.Those big events that are considered to have triggered a wave of revenge on the screen are actually not uncommon at any time, but they happen to happen at the time and place, and they are taken as a footnote.The masses of any era actually have reasons to think that they have been mistreated.

Revenge movies, maybe just the trend of the movie itself, the flared pants and pleated skirts of the movie, are the most reassuring reasons for plagiarism when creativity is lacking.There is no longer a story core that is as convenient as revenge, which can be easily read and written. The one-line development still grabs the old heart of the audience, and sending the villain back to the west in the last ten minutes can satisfy the audience.If I were a screenwriter, I would definitely miss the 1970s, when everyone worked together to write the same story.The most important thing in life is to have boundaries, and the freedom in the boundaries is the most secure freedom.

Since it is a fad, it will always come back after a while.No, after 30 years, the wave of revenge on the screen has come again. After the "9.11" incident, there is a reason for it. Movies such as Shaking All Directions, The Brave, and Illegal Sanctions, all the big names on the screen are involved.Even intellectual female representative Jodie Foster rolled up her sleeves and went into battle.South Korea has "Revenge Trilogy" ("I Want Vengeance", "Old Boy", "Kindly Gold"), Japan has "Machine Gun Girl", but Hong Kong is vacant. Of course, we know that Hong Kong movies are actually not what they used to be. That "Hong Kong movie".

Between the light and the dark of the screen, at the moment when the blood of the villain who is the object of revenge gushes out, the inexplicable anger that exists eternally in the whole world has a small outlet.
