2. What kinds of comedy film that Chinese people like to watch ?
Answer: Firstly, from several Chinese classical comedy films which are Chinese people' favorite that we can see, they have these characteristics: describe the unimportant person (middle or lower class)'s life, amusing, compare with West people, Chinese people focus on watching the development of the plots of the story, rather than focusing on exaggerated performance. http://baike.baidu.com/view/1080946.htm
 《The First Party The Second party》，1997, Romantic comedy. |
《King of Comedy》，1999, a romantic, motivated comedy.
《Project A》, 1983, action comedy.
Secondly, why chinese people like such comedy films? (analysis)
Answer: 1.according to The Concise Oxford Dictionary illustrate:
comedy, n. Stage-play of light, amusing and often satirical character, chiefly representing everyday life, & with happy ending.
2.From Aristotle on, comedy was for centuries the most appropriate genre for representing the lives, not of the ruling classes, of those with extensive power, but of the 'middle' and 'lower' orders of society, those whose power was limited and local, and whose manners, behaviour, and vales were considered by their 'better' to be either trivial, or vulgar, or both.
3.Although non-narrative forms clearly qualify as comedy, a happy edding necessitates a preceding narrative context.
Conclusion: I have known what is important to make the comedy film for Chinese people. Firstly, narrative. Secondly, the elements of producing laughter. In iddition, I think it would be better to make Hybridization comedy, because it can be more better to narrative. According to: Comedy, however, seems especially suited to hybridization, in large part because the local forms responsible for the deliberate generation of laughter can be inserted at some point into most other generic contexts without disturbing their conventions.
