Abstract:

In the history of Taiwan’s cinematic development, Taiwan New Cinema Movement initiated at the beginning of 1980s played a very important part, echoed with the new cinema movement in Hong Kong first and later in the Mainland around the same period. The three movements combined together formed the New Wave in the history of Chinese film production. During this period, a plethora of high quality films occurred successively featuring innovative awareness, distinctive personal styles and high artistic and aesthetic quality. These films refreshed the visions of the world film arena, and opened a window for foreign viewers to understand and appreciate the aesthetic styles of Chinese films. Although great changes have take place in the ecological environment and film creation, production, and markets in Taiwan, Mainland and Hong Kong film industries, the spirit of artistic innovation embodied by the New Cinema Movement, together with the film artists’ care about social reality, about modern and contemporary history and their critical spirit, is still worth vigorous promotion and upholding. Therefore, it is very important and necessary to revisit and reflect on the artistic innovation movement, explore its significance and values, summarize experience and lessons and gain new insights in order to promote healthy and orderly development of Chinese film and Chinese language film in the context of the new era on the one hand, and to rewrite the history of Chinese cinematic development on the other.
