Yang's Taiwan's society as a starting point for the killings, in the context of this special time and then record the so-called Taiwan's KMT forces fled to their families, with a strong nostalgic feeling with the passing settlements live here. Transmutation move with the times, those who have been gradually replaced by a new old house Though military dependents no longer exist, but the military community life the values fostered by, and the social view, is still powerful and stubbornly alive.
through a combination of the scene, very narrow alley; everywhere filled with the sounds of the early years of living typical of military dependents, those who sent the radio opera sound of the window with each of the cooking smell, which is talking about the endless day of national issues or short length of the neighborhood, wearing those Tazhuotuoxie striped pajamas who play mahjong, and the military community gaining the upper hand of the young children through the story we described hh, but also a little bit of return to an era that has been forgotten, re-state memory from some of the time.
It was a depressed young age
small from the beginning actor and father to four admissions office to review results argue to no avail, in the grocery store fat Uncle absence due to depressed behavior, we can understand the parents of the children were expectations, and the young at that time the pressure of studies. two University of result announcement list broadcast sound, respectively, in the film's first four titles, and the small end piece was imprisoned, the family voice in the college entrance examination result announcement in a major clean-up scene ; is the pressure of the atmosphere of the play description of the college entrance examination, but also the fate of the young people in Taiwan early warning mm this off even if you live, then the entrance is also waiting for you.
in the movie, we can also see the story in the college entrance examination pressure traces of focus: the father scolding a small four-shaking sister on the bus in the dark reading, impede vision, and sister to reply, Four of the older sister was admitted to good schools and family of small four-cynical; four or Komidori small, slippery brother and other mixed mixed sister often haunted by reading the name of the library, or even stay late after school or take this as an excuse to go out of these hh bring out the studies under the spell for the former question, the future of school life there is no contradiction at all the fun Moreover, the fact that there are not investigating the truth, at every turn to impose pressure on the authority of the teaching director. So life outside school, the school became Another vast world outside prison. Hsimenting cinema dating, hot fruit ice, playing pool, popular music concerts, and even the gang from the group and large-scale armed conflict, young people everywhere a symbol of depression.
That is more than the wind section of the influx of Western time is Chi
1951 years later, Taiwan and other capitalist societies, under the influence of the United States, whipped up a wave of imitation of the West. However, from 1951 to 1961 in Taiwan, and Westernization is not the basis of the material must have, so these westernized trend is Borrowed, and imitation, external flashes, not the hair, with a life.
not difficult in that the years 1959 to 1961 the era of major development of the plot, he could feel the smell of the shares of the westernized odor. imitating Elvis Presley, from the group of band , tend to attract those so-called mixed most fashionable brother pull the wind mix girl, this arty way troublemaker.
pile of bits and pieces of the play due to popular reach of the west wind, wall posters, were used as fighting weapons, records, and even the king to a small four kittens, to see just the bath big sister, he said: Little Park development of small and medium factories because of shortage of funds, is still low wages, long hours, working conditions, the case of primitive accumulation of profits; rural areas due to low rice prices and a variety of tax expenditures by increasing outflow of the labor force to urban factories, becoming more and more recession; Military Community residents had come to Taiwan with the Kuomintang army in exile, has not lived the intention to do all the construction crude, plus undone, living in the military community of the junior officers and civil servants and teachers, often because of meager wages and life difficulties; though, the film describes, , although the Corps, his father died suddenly displaced, the employer must be hosted in the domestic home, once they are laid off will have nowhere to go;'s uncle, they seek refuge with family, although houses became the place, but the shelter population of mixed, table-board sleeping people, who sat on the bench, the ground there chasing the kids, and subtlety of the lighting, move the chicken wanton, depicts a poor, simple living space.
small four, his father a public servant, mother a temporary substitute teachers, though, none of the four children drop out of school because of his family, sister or even in college, but they must rely on fat-tert-house grocery store goods on credit to make ends meet; in addition to handling money and unscrupulous bully gang , dirt poor public servants sleep in the stalls within the markets that the family no platform vendors hh
nightmare that is the field of memory
small white father of four, in the Typhoon military community to help suppress the night away by police, suffered repeated reconnaissance training and forced to write confessions shear boil, take the ice in the film written by confession, and the young lieutenants Tang La Organ sing myself and the art of song strange is to emphasize the white terror era.

Brighter Summer Day Choupai course until the first movie theaters, the one truly complete; fixing it before the Choupai a long history, often the audience watching the movie, did not find out about the area.
is involved, this film is the memory of Edward Yang used to live, his mind already indelible images, bit by bit, all the shooting situations have become more detailed and require special preparation and construction. This kind of work The good and adhere to the requirements, not only reflected in the film production process, but also in the long preparatory process be confirmed.
It is said, Ono year from the library hosts many newspaper clippings, ready to write a screenplay, Film company established an office for this, advertised to recruit actors, Min Sheng Daily has also been reported to the front page when they auditioned for the casting special way, but candidates for the role has been uncertain. breakout after the outline finished, everything seemed to suddenly stop the operation, that is too hasty in Yang, China Film can not wait for the situation, the end of the shooting plan.
Yang continue to seek investment objects.
referral by Zhan Hongzhi, who had three years of investment experience in the film the object of this investment is not so consuming huge plan for intense, Yang ideal of attended high school in the United States was only just for fun mood in starring in his father's ; three , and other characters will no longer be a problem, in addition to che, Jin Yan Ling, Zhang Ying true, Ni Shujun, the rest of the cast are not too many movies most experience, as Deng Anning, martini theater background, the daughter of Stan Lai Lai Van Yun, Ke Yi is the son of Ke Yulun, Institute of the Arts graduates and school students, as well as who is also the pedicab driver, pedestrians and other roles in a staff hh, in performance training and modeling under input lineup.
Taipei about the sixties, social atmosphere of low pressure and conservative, in the growth stage of the hormone-free entertainment for young people in the vent of the circumstances, various types of regionalism emerged strong in gangs; As these constitute the main body of the gang story, which at the time gap between the growth environment is different today, shown by temperament, momentum, slang, cannot, nor today can imagine the young generation to understand the basis of actor training programs in the four later, Yang Xu and the other two actors also polishers at that time had a profound experience of older gangs, their own experiences for these young actors.
addition to casting, training the trouble outside the north and south will search all of the work scene Gaode off their feet, not only use all the relationships, even the military's support of labor, the main goal of military dependents in addition to the old quarters, is the distribution of sugar throughout, and in which the process of hard work and natural is no longer so difficult Next, there have been many ridiculous things incredible; such Chinkuashih small four scenes, when the mining landscape clearly still there, so a few days with the machine, men do the test, they could not find the house , and was razed to the ground somehow, the most peculiar is that neighbors are still in it, except the reason it was removed danger of collapse.
the complexity of the scene looking for work in August 8, 1990 between After the shooting, is still carried out in succession. In particular, the end of 1990 filming trip to Pingtung south great gains, in addition to the thing they have in the original book, but also together to solve a range, streets, shops and other important fat-tert-scenes, and even work staff accommodation at the hotel opposite the Pingtung, send the old car at the full, have been converted into a casino Wanhua.
shooting, the progress of the delay increased the number of the budget, leaving aside those materials, filming machine, lighting hire, human consumption of hh, the real problem is, after all, open your eyes every day, is to solve the problems of a large team of people to eat; budget film from the original investment in the fourteen million, six months later added to the eighteen hundred million, then all the sudden the situation, the convergence in terms of capital, causing considerable distress, so there are some news came one after another, as in the south during the filming, the producer back and forth between north and south than to borrow money for the yin and had heard ; Chinese song, continuous shooting later changes to the budget, After, that is, mid-March 1991, , press the port of the surplus to repay.
4 12, finished at the National Institute of the Arts lasted for 8 months, 110 days.
students. drama . the film halfway through, portable pieces with the same continuity as the wife of Lin Yuehui study tour to go to France.
