241. The arch (1969)
Country: Hong Kong
Directed by Shu Shuen
Seriously a milestone, 'The arch' came from nowhere as a fresh breath in an industry full of old fashion and often dull comedies, musicals, melodramas or war sagas, as a highly artistic film, and it paved the way for the modernisation and social awakening of the Hong Kong cinema. Edited by a women director it considered as the first national feminist film, dealing with the woman oppression under the strict social rules, but most importantly it is really revolutionary on terms of editing, framing, using of music, photography. Superb
