探究审查制度的影响与中国悬疑电影的创新 —— 以电影《消失的她》和《河边的错误》为例 = Investigating the impact of the censorship system on the innovation of Chinese mystery filmss — a case study of the movies 'Lost in Stars' and 'Only the River Flows'

Abstract

20世纪三十年代，希区柯克（Alfred Hitchcock）导演的悬疑电影系列开启了悬疑片的先河，被誉为“悬疑大师”。这些优秀的悬疑电影构成了早期悬疑电影的悬疑叙事风格与定义。中国悬疑电影发展起步较晚，是从主旋律电影发展并转型的娱乐电影。 这篇论文旨在研究中国悬疑电影如何在严格的审查制度下进行创新。相较于希区柯克导演开启的悬疑电影先河，笔者将分析两部2023年上映的悬疑电影：《消失的她》和《河边的错误》与早期悬疑电影的对比。此文将深入其主题、人物和叙事结构进行剖析，探讨中国悬疑电影是如何在中国严峻的审查制度下突破早期悬疑电影的固有模式体现中国的悬疑风格。 In the 1930s, Alfred Hitchcock's suspense film series pioneered the genre, earning him the title of 'Master of Suspense'. These outstanding suspense films established the narrative style and definition of early suspense cinema. However, Chinese suspense films started later, emerging from the development and transformation of mainstream films into entertainment-oriented cinema. This paper aims to explore how Chinese suspense cinema innovates under the stringent censorship system. In contrast to the groundwork laid by Hitchcock, the analysis focuses on two suspense films released in 2023: 'Lost in Stars' and 'Only the River Flows'。 Through a thorough examination of their themes, characters, and narrative structures, it investigates how Chinese suspense cinema breaks away from the conventional patterns of early suspense films under China's rigorous censorship regime. This research will contribute to understanding the current status and future trends of Chinese suspense cinema, as well as the impact of censorship on film production.
