Is "Tong Pak Hu Dian Qiu Xiang" a classic in Stephen Chow's movies? How to evaluate?

"Tong Pak Hu Dian Qiu Xiang" can certainly be regarded as one of the classic representative works of Stephen Chow films. It created a classic image of Tang Bohu who was overjoyed at being laughed at by others for being too crazy and sad by others. Although it has the same nonsense style as other masterpieces of Master Xing: dirty jokes are flying all over the sky, the film is unique and different because of Gong Li's participation.

Different from other deconstructed classic historical and literary figures in Stephen Chow's works, such as Su, Yuan, Yuan and others, Tang Yin, a famous literati poet in history, is actually quite tragic under the interpretation of Stephen Chow. He has never been loved in his life. Although he has many wives and concubines, they all exist in name only. Even he spent a whole movie chasing Chou-heung, and he turned out to be a bad gambler. He has never had real friendship in his life. The film used a lot of nonsense to tell how he and his good friend Zhu Zhishan played tricks on each other and betrayed each other.

No wonder he lamented that sentence: "People laugh at me because I am crazy, and I laugh at others because I can't see through." Think about it carefully, sigher's heart is really full of desolation and helplessness, with a strong sense of loneliness and helplessness. However, the film "Tong Pak Hu Dian Qiu Xiang" wrapped the core of this tragedy with a lot of comedies, which is actually the same as Yin Tianchou in king of comedy.

Next, I want to talk about Gong Li, who plays Chou-heung, the first heroine. In fact, if Maggie Cheung, Ada Choi and even Chingmy Yau, Sharla Cheung and other old partners play this role together, the effect will actually be better than Gong Li. At that time, Gong Li had just appeared in the prestigious Farewell My Concubine, and when she first arrived in Hongkong, she didn't want to leave the burden behind in order to meet the requirements of Stephen Chow's nonsense comedy, so no matter from the completion of the film or the comedy effect of the whole film, it was all because of Gong Li. The role of "Chou-heung" is definitely the most failed role played by Gong Li.

However, Tang Bohu's "Dian Qiu Xiang" is still a childhood classic for generations. Roach and Xiao Qiang, Hua 'an rap, absolute beauty pomegranate sister and other jokes will always stay in our hearts.
