Abstract

With the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War in an all-round way, Chinese literature and art began to re-examine its manifestations in the course of historical changes, showing a more tortuous turn of literary and artistic path under the historical tide of the revolutionary war. Film art was inevitably involved in this cultural self-determination. How did Chinese films during the Anti-Japanese War inherit and reflect on the previous historical stage? What criteria should be used to measure the unique "national form" of Chinese films during the war? How did the "national form" make the films revolutionary and militant and meet the needs of propaganda of the Anti-Japanese War? Chinese filmmakers must solve these problems in art creation in that period.
