Literary works,as a kind of spiritual food that spans time and space,can meet the aesthetic and entertainment needs of people in different eras.As the cultural carrier closest to ordinary people in cultural communication,film has become the favorite of the general public with its life and artistic expression.Since the time when it was born,the sound of many music accompanying the video has become people’s auditory memory and represents an era.New China’s films and film music also relied on different characteristics of the times and regions to grow and mature gradually through exploration.After the founding of the People’s Republic of China,with the development of national identification and protection of ethnic minority cultures,governments at all levels have implemented a series of cultural assistance policies to enhance the social value of minority cultures in the new era.The filming reflects the attention of various minority-themed movies and is therefore included in the important content of cultural development.The landmark mark is the film "The Victory of the Inner Mongolian People" which was released in 1950,marking that China’s "minority-themed film" officially entered the historical stage,which means that minority culture has a place in the cultural hundred gardens of New China.Yunnan is located on the southwestern border of the motherland and has rich and diverse ethnic cultural resources.In the process of developing the development of frontier society,Yunnan’s national culture has also become an important cultural source for filmmakers,enlightening filmmakers’ artistic creation inspiration.In this context,during the "seventeen years" of New China,with the support of relevant policies,the Chinese film industry successfully completed 47 films reflecting the customs of 18 ethnic minorities,of which Yunnan’s ethnic minority theme films accounted for 11.Many of the works in these eleven films have received widespread attention and have had a profound social impact.They have become important windows for the outside world to understand Yunnan,understand Yunnan,and love Yunnan,and have formed the beginning of the "borderland culture." The melody of the listeners for several generations not only represents the artist’s emotional photo,but also the moving sound of the aesthetic thoughts of that era.The first film showing the customs of Yunnan’s ethnic minorities was born in 1954.It was adapted from BaiHua’s novel "The Bells of the Mountain Rings",and for the first time showed the national customs of "The south of the Clouds" to audiences throughout the country.Since then,various film studios have successively shot classic movies such as "Mysterious Travelling Companion","Lusheng Love Song","Five Golden Flowers",and "Ashma".Episodes and soundtracks;it has made great contributions to publicizing Yunnan and improving its social impact and cultural quality.Today,there are no people of the same age as the Republic who are not influenced by their melody,and there are no Chinese who cannot hum a few words.This article will take film songs and soundtracks taken during the "seventeen years"(1949-1966)of New China,with Yunnan ethnic customs as the expression carrier,and Yunnan ethnic music materials as creative elements.Through the in-depth discussion of the aesthetic characteristics,aesthetic value,and communication value of the film music’s ontology,the characteristics of the melody,the value and connotation contained in the "seventeen years" of Yunnan’s national theme film music and its impact on the Yunnan national music creation The potential impact,meanwhile,as an aesthetic theory that spans time and space,it has an impact on the soft power of Yunnan culture.
