The Influence of Soviet Films on China Films

Prose film is another type of literary film in the Soviet Union. Prose film is to embody the theme and shape the fleshy characters through the formation process of characters. Its expression method embodies the basic characteristics of prose creation, which is "scattered in form and condensed in spirit" At this point, this is also the aesthetic requirement of drama and novel. Drama has its time and space limitations, emphasizing dialogue, fixed viewpoint and other characteristics; Novels also have their own characteristics, such as jumping in time and space, flexible structure, attaching importance to lyricism and describing narration. Prose films refer to the artistic expression characteristics of novels and dramas, so that the films can truly reflect real life and express people's colorful personality characteristics in a more documentary way. Among them, the early films are: Lenin in October and Xia Boyang in Rome; Ailm Lear's Big Citizen, Gerasimov's Seven Warriors and The Teacher are all representative prose films. Among them, gerasimov's films are characterized by prose. Gerasimov likes the works of Russian realist Chekhov very much. He absorbed a lot of literary and aesthetic nutrition from Chekhov's works, and tried to show the life of ordinary people in depth like Chekhov, and embodied "poetry in the ordinary" and "beauty in the ordinary" in the film. In the development of Soviet movies, there have been very good prose movies, such as Red Berry by shukshin, Sublimation by Schell Pichko, and Dawn is Silent here by Rostovski. Especially the last film, in the form of prose poems, shows the charm and tragic of Soviet female soldiers during World War II. As Karaganov said, "The girls fell down one after another in the Karelia forest far away from the front line and troops, but they made great contributions in the battle to contain the enemy and prevent the enemy paratroopers from fleeing to the White Sea Canal ... Every girl, like their commander, Warrant Officer Vaskov, showed her personality in the film. Therefore, their poetic image of establishing meritorious deeds is more prominent, and their thinking about the value of victory is more clearly portrayed through screen movements, atmosphere and tone. " [4] (P110) The film depicts the typical environment of the film in a poetic mood: quiet mountains, misty lakes, ancient country churches, birds singing from far and near, and quiet and vibrant villages. However, it is in this environment that an extraordinary life-and-death contest took place. Six beautiful girls gave their precious lives for the liberation of the motherland, and a female warrior like Cupid gave her life for the country in such a beautiful environment, which made people full of regret and reverence. The poetic prose of the film is also manifested in the structure, taking the cruel battle as the main line of development, and then constructing three different forms of space-time pictures according to the needs of theme expression, and creating the necessary artistic conception from the emotional color of space. The black-and-white lens shows the severity and cruelty of the war, the high-light lens shows the memory of the love and family of the girl before the war, and the true restored color is the reproduction of the real peaceful and happy life. It is this color montage structure that makes the harsh war, dreamy memories and gorgeous reality in sharp contrast and close contact. Remarkable colorful and purified memories are the source of the faith and strength of realistic female warriors, while the beautiful and splendid mountains and forests in reality are the reflection of the lofty spirit of female heroes. With concise brushwork, lyrical artistic conception and novel structural form, the film has shaped many inspiring screen images and profoundly revealed the essence of war.
