Intellectuals are significant to society and culture.They play the important role of value maintainer and ethical spokesman.It is precisely because of this "social conscience" that civilization can continue.Intellectuals not only become the trendsetters of the times in the context of reform and opening up in the 1980 s,but also occupy an important position in the film narrative.Intellectuals,as creators,film characters and the main body of the times,form a close connection of Trinity and form a whole set of film discourse with intellectual narrative as the core.The problem to be solved in the research of this subject is: in the Chinese films of the 1980 s,how did the film creators realize the legitimacy demonstration and reasonable construction of intellectuals in the form of intellectual narration.The first chapter mainly expounds the beginning of the intellectual narrative in the 1980 s,analyzes the background of the intellectual narrative,the complexity of the narrative subject and the specific works of the intellectual narrative in the 1980 s.The second chapter mainly summarizes the classic image of intellectuals created by the intellectual narrative: intellectuals changed from the object of dictatorship to the subject of revolution,forming a legitimate image of nationalist intellectuals;the father generation intellectuals constructed the image of belief inheritors in the sense of ethics and belief;young intellectuals constructed the image of belief inheritors through the analysis of conservative empiricism Rebellious and self-education form a new image of the times that highlights the spirit of the 1980s;in the family and political narrative,intellectuals embody the integration of family and orthodoxy,and form the most typical intellectual prototype of the same structure of family and country in the intellectual narrative of the 1980 s.The third chapter discusses the narrative style of intellectuals formed under the guidance of intellectual temperament: the traditional literati atmosphere and the poetic style in the modernization of film language form a resonance,and construct an aesthetic style that pays attention to spiritual perception and human care;the combination of the personality spirit of Chinese intellectuals "benevolent people love" and the humanitarianism trend of thought forms a humanitarianism Under the guidance of the elite consciousness,the intellectual narrative constructs the allegorical narrative style,which gives birth to the metaphor of the nation and history with the dissolution of the intellectual subjectivity.The fourth chapter summarizes several main value demands of intellectual narrative: to promote modernization with the individual narrative of reform heroes,to support the mainstream discourse of society;to rationalize the material desire of intellectuals,to realize the return of daily life in the transformation of intellectual residence from ideal space to material space;to realize knowledge through the liberation of intellectual lust The pursuit of the return of human nature.The fifth chapter focuses on the deconstruction and fission of intellectual narrative.In the process of realizing their own value demands,intellectuals have a rift between divinity and material nature.The secular narrative represented by Wang Shuo’s films is a reflection and response to the problem of excessive deification in intellectuals’ narrative.In the narration of intellectuals,the conflict and dislocation between elite culture and mass culture are reflected.The appearance of layman narration not only means the disintegration of the intellectual narration in the 1980 s as a whole film discourse,but also breeds the germination of the film expression theme in the 1990 s.
