Zhang Yimou's Film Structure Analysis Paper
From 1987, after his first film "Red Sorghum" became a hit, he devoted himself to the exploration of film innovation, and in 1999, he made an in-depth examination of China's film industry at the end of the century with "My Mom and Dad". Based on the division of "initial stage-development stage-mature stage", this paper expounds the creative characteristics of "rebellion-return-integration" in these three stages from the aspects of theme content and language form, with a view to reviewing and looking forward to the creative trend of Zhang Yimou's films in the early new century.

Starting from the text world of movies, Zhang Yimou's creative style can be summarized as two points: one is the rich atmosphere, which is blurred by the initial creative impulse; Second, the simple and stubborn characters bring corresponding forms of expression to the film.

He used two kinds of film rhetoric arts-symbolism and exaggeration in his film creation, which greatly strengthened the appeal and visual impact of the film and endowed the artistic image he created with great richness and originality. Therefore, the symbolism and exaggeration of Zhang Yimou's films are the two artistic features of his films going global and creating film myths.

Zhang Yimou's works are full of distinct passion complex, which makes his films form a unique artistic style. From his early life experience, we can see that passion has always been a part of Zhang Yimou's director's personality, and he constantly rebelled against tradition and challenged himself in his artistic creation. In his works, passion is manifested in the choice of actors, the choice of film themes, the creation of film language and the shaping of characters, especially female images. This passion made Zhang Yimou a director, but it also showed some disadvantages.

As for Zhang Yimou's comedy "Have something to say", it changes Zhang Yimou's previous creative style, and strives to construct an unremarkable street life landscape and create a prose-style screen spectacle. Due to the change of narrative perspective, the mirror language system of this film is also very different from Zhang Yimou's previous films. With the help of brand-new mirror language images and conscious comedy irony, the film profoundly shows Zhang Yimou's profound reflection on the gray life of modern cities and the modernization of human beings.
