Wen Jiang - In the Heat of the Sun aka Yangguang Canlan de Rizi (1994) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0111786 English and Chinese subs http://filimadami.com/afisler/Yangguang_Canlan_de_Rizi___In_the_Heat_of_the_Sun%281994%29.jpg "Change has wiped out my memories. I can't tell what's imagined from what's real" (from the prologue to In the Heat of the Sun). One central obsession, time, preoccupies all of the greatest Chinese language films of the '90s. Each of these films in some way makes the most radical demands on our experience of temporality, exposes the ideological underpinnings of our preconceptions about time, and insists on a vision of breathtaking, liberating alternatives. Although it played in a few film festivals, In the Heat of the Sun remains largely unknown outside of China. Jiang Wen (contemporary mainland Chinese cinema's greatest actor, in his first film as director) and writer Wang Shuo (the cynical "bad boy" of new Chinese literature) collaborated on this 1994 feature about coming-of-age in 1970s Beijing. A cast made up largely of young teenagers (Xia Yu as Jiang Wen's alter-ego "Monkey" is simply astonishing, and young film idol Ning Jing does the best work of her career to date) portrays what it might have been like to be young, privileged, and completely unfettered in a Beijing largely depopulated of adult authority figures by Mao's Cultural Revolution. The film's politics, though, are implied -- mere shadows on its margins. Jiang's camera, wandering at will through space, and tracking and backtracking through time, embodies an absolute freedom just out of reach of the film's principals. Ostensibly a nostalgia film about the Cultural Revolution's "good old days", this film is much more: a self-consciously post-modern, post-"fifth generation" dismantling of the modern Chinese realist film; an ironic, romance-drenched interrogation of the possibility of eros and passion in a totalitarian era; and a meditation on the traps and opportunities afforded by creative mis-remembering. http://bayimg.com/image/pajmbaacm.jpg http://bayimg.com/image/pajmaaacm.jpg http://bayimg.com/image/oajmoaacm.jpg http://bayimg.com/image/oajmnaacm.jpg ---my rip--- ~~~~~~ Yangguang Canlan de Rizi.avi ~~~~~~ File Size (in bytes):...........................1,473,685,504 --- Video Information --- Video Codec Name:...............................XviD ISO MPEG-4 Duration (hh:mm:ss):............................2:08:37 Frame Count:....................................185006 Frame Width (pixels):...........................624 Frame Height (pixels):..........................352 Aspect Ratio:...................................1.773 Frames Per Second:..............................23.976 Video Bitrate (kbps):...........................1326 ......MPEG-4......B-VOP........................

V=9, A=9
Eng Subtitles 3/10
Subtitles stutter, some dialogue is missed and pale letters against pale background often hard to read.
Interesting movie
