《老井》是一部具有深层次精神内涵的电影,不仅真实再现了劳动人民真实的生活,还在很大程度上展现了中国传统文化。电影中从对于伦理道德的重视、民族精神与殉难的品格和传统的女性色彩等方面着重刻画的中国的传统文化精神。另外对于传统文化有着自己的批判与反思,比如个性被传统同化的思索,对于封建文化的盲从所造成后果的反思以及理性的对待中国的传统文化这几个方面。 “Old Well” is a film with profound spiritual connotation. It not only reproduces the real life of the working people, but also shows the Chinese traditional culture to a great extent. In the film, the Chinese traditional culture spirit is mainly portrayed from the emphasis on ethics, the national spirit and the martyrdom character and the traditional female color. In addition, it has its own critique and reflection on traditional culture, such as the reflection of individuality by traditional assimilation, the reflection of the consequences caused by the blind obedience of feudal culture and the rational treatment of China’s traditional culture.
