Watching movies is a good way to learn Chinese. It can not only improve our oral Chinese and listening comprehension, but also understand the traditional Culture of China, know more about the living conditions of Chinese people in a certain period of history, the Chinese way of thinking and what Chinese people care about. In this video I'd like to recommend five movies to you. I think these movies are really, really worth seeing.
Links of the 5 movies:

2. 山楂树之恋 Under the Hawthorn Tree

This film is adapted from the novel of the same name. It was directed by zhang Yimou, one of China's most famous actors. The film has won many awards and grossed 160 million in mainland China. Its lines are actually not complicated at all. Its mandarin is very standard, and the speed is not fast. But the movie's love story is very moving. It tells a love story that took place in the second half of the 20th century in a special political context in China. The film has been called by Chinese people as the purest romantic movie in history. If you want to understand the history of China of that time and how people lived then, I highly recommend this film.

4. 城南旧事 My Memories of Old Beijing
https://v.qq.com/x/cover/0vsiy4xwudol...
The film was released in 1983. It's a relatively old movie. But I like it sooo much, because it's special and important. The story of the film takes place in Beijing. It has lots of pictures of old Beijing hard to find in Beijing today. The film won the Golden Rooster Award of Chinese film and many international awards. The film is adapted from the novel of the same name. The novel is now one of the required extra-curricular reading materials for junior middle school students in China. And some of its chapters have been selected into the textbooks for junior middle school students in China, so it's very classic and important. Its soundtrack, with lyrics 'outside the pavilion, along the ancient road, green grass and green sky' has been widely spread in China. One another big advantage is that its lines are in very standard Mandarin. Its speed is not very fast. This film will give you an idea of Beijing in the first half of the 20th century in a period of change between the old and the new. At the same time, you can feel the subtle real feelings of Chinese people at that time.
