20世纪中国电影理论之变迁

中国电影史及其理论的发展,其总的行程必然地循着先求赢利,后因其广泛的群众影响而为政治所充实、所干扰,直到电影意识大觉醒这样三个大的阶段,向前推移。从艺术进程看,从承袭舞台剧遗产的阶段到在原有思维框架中对于电影独特性的逐渐明显的认识,再到因这一认识的高度自觉所导致的抛弃原有思维框架的努力。上述这两个过程相互渗透并交织到了一起,这便是20世纪中国电影发展的两个层次的逻辑关系。

Evolution in Film Theory in 20th Century China

The general route of the development in the history and theory of film in China is inevitably by seeking profit at first, and then enriched and disturbed by politics because of the influence of its broad masses, to a great recovery of film consciousness. These are the three major phases of developing. In view of the artistic evolution, it develops from the phase of the inheritance of stage drama, to a gradually evident knowledge of the unique characteristic of film in the original frame of thinking, then to an effort to give up the original frame of thinking caused by this highly recognized consciousness. The above-mentioned two processes interact and interweave with each other. This is exactly a logic relationship between the two strata in the development of Chinese film in the 20th century.
