The most attractive part of the film lies in the director's unique personal style and worldview. In this respect, the performance of Wu Yusen's works is undoubtedly quite outstanding. Although all his works have a strong commercial color, compared with the situation that the director's personal style is greatly limited in commercial activities, Wu Yusen's film presentation method is completely opposite-his personal color is rendered to the extreme, and Wu Yusen is a flamboyant author and director.

John Woo 1948 was born in Guangdong Province and moved to Hong Kong with his family. His childhood passed day by day in the hardships of life. A large and small family has no fixed place to live, and their father is infected with consumption, and the family is as poor as a church mouse. Fortunately, with the help of the church, John Woo had the opportunity to finish his middle school studies. Wu Yusen has been entangled in violence and belief in his youth, so these two forces later became the focus of his works. He is a Christian, and he has the dual influence of Christianity and the chivalrous spirit of ancient China, which undoubtedly contributed to the most important temperament of his films. Up to now, the scene where the killer with classical chivalry appeared in the church is still the most impressive scene in his movies.

197 1 year, John Woo joined Shaw Company, a Hong Kong film giant. At that time, Hong Kong films were in the era of new martial arts films, and the great director Zhang Che was the anti-tripartite confrontation figure in Shaw's martial arts films. As the deputy director of Zhang Che, John Woo participated in many new martial arts films. From Zhang Che, John Woo not only learned the vital action scenes in movies, but also learned how to express his personal feelings through movies. The tragic scenes of mountains of bones and rivers of blood in Zhang Che's films were later perfectly applied to John Woo's fashion hero films, which became a unique symbol of John Woo's personal style and world outlook.

The period from the mid-1980s to the early 1990s was John Woo's most brilliant period in Hong Kong. He has made several films that shocked and influenced a whole generation of China people, such as Hero, Hot-blooded Man, Traveling Around the World and Detective Tough Guy. These films, with their mature and strong personal style, have exerted great influence on the world films, especially Hollywood films. This laid a solid foundation for him to go to Hollywood after 1997 and quickly become a first-line big-name director.

Today, John Woo is still one of the top directors in Hollywood, and his achievements are the best among Hong Kong film practitioners who have made their way to Hollywood. Of course, this can't explain anything, because in terms of style, John Woo made a huge compromise in his cooperation with Hollywood, and there is an essential gap between his film works shot in Hollywood and those shot in Hong Kong. Fortunately, John Woo is gradually returning. More precisely, it seems that he is ready to plunge his nutrient-absorbing roots into the fertile soil of China's classical literature again. Whether this is another sublimation of his film style is unknown, but we hope to make a systematic and in-depth analysis of his film style through two programs, in order to explore the secret of the success of Hong Kong films through the case of John Woo.
