Abstract

The 1935 Shanghai left-wing film Feng Yun Er Nv used the story model of triangle love, in which the choice of the hero reflected his patriotic political orientation, and as well the appeal to anti-aggression fight that the filmmakers aimed to convey. By scrutiny towards the political background and the history of the script adaptation, features and reasons behind this story model were found. Though using a form of love story, the film itself shows the obscuration of the love narration, which is a result of strengthened revolutionary narration and inharmonic script adaptation. As a result, Feng Yun Er Nv is merely a seemed-like triangle love story that virtually serves to be a revolutionary discourse. Examining the text-making process of Feng Yun Er Nv with its specific historical context, this paper offers a new perspective of understandings towards this film.
