Spring in a Small Town [1948]
The tone of this 1948 romantic drama, Xiao Cheng zhi Chun, is set by the
very title itself. By using the classical "zhi" (pronounced "jr") to
indicate that this spring "belongs" to the small town, director Fei Mu
exchanges the normal colloquial language for the literary. The heroine
Wei Wei (Zhou Yuwen) is married to a VIP landowner who seems to be
suffering from severe depression. World War II has just ended and no one
would fault him for his morose temperament. But when a charming doctor
comes
to visit the
family, Wei Wei is thrown into turmoil. She was in love with this doctor
before marrying her husband and now he clearly wants her back. Torn
between her real love and her duty to her husband, Wei Wei's dilemma is
heightened when her spouse takes a turn for the worse and the doctor has
to try to save him.
