The film "Assembly" is undoubtedly a blockbuster work in the Chinese film market in recent years, the film is set in the background of the squadron during the War of Resistance against Japan, and tells the story of the various hardships and challenges experienced by a heroic anti-Japanese team in the war. However, since its release, the question of whether the film is based on a true story has been plaguing many viewers and scholars. This article will examine this issue from a number of perspectives.
What we need to make clear is that the movie "Assembly" is not directly adapted from a specific historical event, but is based on a series of real events and characters during the Anti-Japanese War for artistic processing and recreation. This was confirmed in an interview with the film's director, Feng Xiaogang. He said that although many of the plots and characters in the film are based on historical facts, in the creative process, they pay more attention to integrating these historical elements into a story with strong drama and ornamentation, so as to better engage the audience and convey the theme of the film.
The movie "The Assembly" also made bold innovations in narrative structure and character building. Different from traditional war-themed films, "Assembly" does not focus too much on the cruelty and tragedy of war, but focuses more on human nature and emotions in war. This allows the film to get rid of the traditional framework of war films to a certain extent, and present a richer and more diverse perspective. At the same time, the main characters in the movie are not heroes in the traditional sense, but real characters full of personality and contradictions. This way of characterization undoubtedly adds to the realism and life of the film.
From the point of view of historical research, the movie "The Assembly" is still faithful to historical facts to a large extent. Many of the battles, battles, and technical equipment in the film have a certain historical basis, such as the Pingxingguan victory and the Taiyuan Defense Battle mentioned in the film. In addition, some important characters in the movie, such as the regiment commander played by Feng Xiaogang and the company commander played by Zhang Hanyu, also have their real historical prototypes. The addition of these historical elements makes the film have a historical background and depth to a certain extent.
From the point of view of film censorship and distribution, "The Assembly" has passed the strict review of the relevant state departments before its release. This means that the content of the film must conform to the country's historical outlook and values, and history must not be distorted or tampered with. Therefore, we can conclude that although "The Assembly" has made certain innovations in narrative structure and character building, it still follows the principle of historical authenticity to a large extent.
The movie "The Assembly" is not completely based on a true story, but has undergone a lot of artistic processing and recreation on the basis of historical facts. This way of creation not only ensures the viewing and drama of the film, but also retains the authenticity and depth of history to a large extent. Therefore, we can say that "The Assembly" is a successful war-themed film, which has both strong practical significance and high artistic value.
