Nothing like Canadian narration to make even the most exceptional things seem routine!
Hello! I processed this movie, and if you have some questions about its contents, you can ask me, and I'll answer if I have time!
Are the 3 parts the full movie? Or are some parts missing?
Is there a way to get this documeantary without timestamps and higer quality?
5:17 the music strikes me as a bit intense for scenes of pastoral countryside hahaha
Many parts have very strange music choises.
Sound like Robert MacNeil (McNeil -Lehrer).
发现一个十分有趣的镜头，6:37、6:41在哈尔滨防洪纪念碑附近出现的冰棍真实叫卖声，故事片《黑三角》（北京电影制片厂1977摄制）竟然在同一地点（电影外景地）拍摄了一个近乎一样的电影故事情节（见影片52:46-53:19），是巧合还是电影编剧受到了日本纪录片的启发？真是太有意思了！
Do tell more!
The origins of social media @ 7:30 for real.

Lolololololol so funny
"The railroad was exactly on time". I'd never actually heard that said with earnestness. Priceless, and just as meaningless as ever.
i mean considering the state of railways in China before 1949 I suspect that people would wanna tell the foreigners filming the train station about it
@@RyRy2057 Lol! I presume you're trolling me. However, more and more each day I cannot be sure of people understanding what they are seeing and hearing. Even if it's the case you've never heard the phrase "he made the trains run on time", what do you think the purpose of this film was? After all, it was not a travelogue.
1:26 She tried to Pick Pocket him!
roflammo, Actually, the true reason for this is s a little sad - between 1955 and - first until the end of the Mao's mandate (1977) but in some cases until 1981 (worker's dormitories and the likes) there was a strict hierarchy on who could and couldn't date and marry, relying more on the incomes of the parties, maturity, and "ideological readiness" - for example Chinese university students could date, but could not marry (and in some cases - the Chinese Gen X exchange students, you can hear it from "horse's mouth" - they went abroad to be able to date and marry).
The young woman here was probably trying to be kind to her boyfriend, but since they were filmed this would be a public display of affection, of what it probably a "forbidden" relationship - judging by their age they could have been students, but since they were not allowed PDA, it's probable that both were of lower class going to a trade school, and thus not allowed to date or marry until graduation and having gotten a job.
No different really from the American extreme Christians with their "no dating and no sex before marriage" schtick, and with the same result - people leaving their communities and running away from the crazy "requirements" like that.
Very fortunately, for the Chinese people, this stopped decades ago.
Here you are.
@@IvanDmitriev1 Sounds like some bullshit the Americans made up but ok
@@IvanDmitriev1 wrong
that's why I said all americans .out of china 30 days the block the borders
2:43 reading out of their red bible
More like anti bible
wow this could not possibly be Communist propaganda. with this info i am shocked that the rest of the world didnt pick up Communism. LOL just joking if you couldnt tell by reading that. over 50 million people dead during the cultural revolution and the years that fallowed. Thank you for posting this video in its Original form. even though it is most defiantly Propaganda but it is import to keep records like this for as long as we can unadulterated . Thank you PeriscopeFilm
You are from the most propagandized country in the world, and so uneducated. Give peace a chance.
may i ask if you know why the cultural revolution was carried out in the first place? Do you have any idea how important that period of history is for the people of China at the time?
@@unfairadvantagefilms China beats the USA for state control of information and surveillance. Though America is nearly catching up.
@@helmsylvanian I’ve listened to people still living who participated in the murder of their own parents during the so called people’s revolution. Just because something is held as important doesn’t mean it is good.
@@7eyesopenwide168 So what‘s the problem to kill counterrevolutionaries? Idgaf if they‘re even my parents. I want a progress in humanity, any morals are reflected in emotions and emotions aren‘t objective.

文化大革命、の時ですね、素人から見ても、全く無駄な時間と金、人材を使ったものです、これがなければ経済的発展はもっと早かったのでは？
経済不是人类生活的目的 物质主义停止！
