Film evaluation

broadcast
EDITOR
The Three Gorges Good Man follows the process of Han Sanming, a coal miner, and Shen Hong, a nurse, in search of their lovers. In the background of the chaotic relocation, it gradually brings out the bottom ecology of China under the baptism of modern civilization and their respective emotions and values. Jia Zhangke focuses on the majority who remain without a chance to speak, the small people who truly represent China. The recombination of Sanming and his bought wife is a typical delay in the narration of old China from the western perspective, and the Chinese human rights tragedy is remedied with Chinese emotions; Shen Hong refuses to marry without emotion, which represents the independent emotional attitude of contemporary new women. The director is really well-intentioned to embed the themes of human rights and freedom in gender relations [6] . (" Boutique Shopping Guide "review)
In "The Three Gorges Man", Jia Zhangke relies on the river and shows the reality of China under the suffering for the audience with a humanistic and caring attitude. He follows the shooting style of "simple technique" that he always insists on. The dialogues are all in dialects without rendering or stirring up emotions [34] . The film combines an unintentional naturalistic style with a surprising documentary color, which makes the whole work full of poetry and slightly grainy [22] "Is a work of intellect and sensibility [28] .
