摘要：

自20世纪80年代初钟惦棐先生提出拍摄中国“西部电影”的倡导, 西部电影创作在80年代中期迅速起步，80年代末达到鼎盛、辉煌，出现了一批具有西部文化特色的作品。这些影片充满西部精神和西部意识，具有浓郁的西北民族风情和地域特质，以自己现代影像语言的探索和表述，呼应了新时期影像美学的兴起，形成了独特的美学风格特征，甚至在一定程度上成为中国的文化符号和形象象征。中国西部电影的创作实践和理论思考在中国电影史和当下电影实践中具有重要的价值。其文化影响和精神流变延及新世纪的某些电影创作。对之的考察研究对今天全球化时代中国电影的类型建设和文化的国际传播都有重要的启示价值和实践意义。

Abstract:

Since the early 1980s when Mr. Zhong Dianfei made his proposition concerning the creation of the Chinese western film, and after a long period of the rapid development in the mid 1980s and the prosperous climax in the end of the 1980s, China has produced a great number of works characteristic of the western culture. These films, full of the western spirit and consciousness, possess a strong favor of the northwestern nationality and regional feature, and, by virtue of their expression and exploration in modern image language, echo the rise of the image esthetics in the new period, thus forming the unique aesthetic style, even, in a certain degree, China' s symbolization of cultural sign and figure. A practical and theoretical consideration of the creation of the Chinese western film has an important value both for the Chinese history of film and for the current film practice. The cultural influence and spiritual variation of the Chinese western film are spread to some film creation in the new century. In the age of globalization, for our investigation of the Chinese western film, it has a great important value and revelation in the construction of China' s film genre and the international dissemination of culture.
