焦裕禄其人其事,曾一度在全国范围内家喻户晓,你为什么要在20多年后的今天选择它作为自己第四部影片的创作?这个问题很多人都问过我。这里有一些历史原因。当导演之前,我写小说,写剧本,其中有几个作品写了反省型的干部形象,他们反省自己执政掌权以后与老百姓的关系发生的变化。这种感受时间比较长了,对这类题材,我一直比较感兴趣。 What happened to Jiao Yulu was once a household name in the whole country. Why did you choose it as his fourth film today more than 20 years later? Many people have asked me this question. Here are some historical reasons. Before the director, I wrote novels and wrote scripts, and several of them wrote introspective images of cadres who reflect on the changes that have taken place in the relations with the people since they came to power. This feeling of time longer, on such topics, I have been more interested.
