A World Without Thieves (天下无贼) by Xiaogang Feng (冯小刚). 2004.
A World Without Thieves centers on a naive village boy who does not believe in the existence of thieves. As if returning home by train with all his savings hidden in his pocket in cash is not enough, he brazenly shouts out his earnings in a crowded street. While he soon becomes the target of many thieves, some are struck by his innocence, including a former thief who later would sacrifice everything for the boy’s belief.
Through Xiaogang Feng’s unique appraoch, the film explores the theme of the fundamental human goodness while addressing humorously the issue of rampant thievery on public transport in Mainland China. While the film sets at the height of ridiculousness, it beckons the viewers to reconsider the preconceived attitude towards of the protagonist’s innocence: what has been lost when such innocence came to be registered as sheer naiveté?

Spring in a Small Town (小城之春) dir. Fei Mu (費穆). 1948.
Director Fei Mu was born in Shanghai in 1906. When he was young, he studied French in school and learned other foreign languages such as English, Italian, German, and Russian on his own. In 1930 he was working as a translator editor for a film company, and it was then that film director Hou Yao asked Fei to be his assistant, thus beginning Fei’s journey in film directing.
Spring in a Small Town is regarded as Fei's most famous work. The film takes place among the aftermath of the Second Sino-Japanese War, and follows the struggling and changing relationship of a once prosperous couple. Through their story, the film illustrates the destructive effects of war, and the psychological and physical trauma this particular war brought upon the people of China.
The film has received multiple awards and accolades, including the top spot on the Hong Kong Film Award’s list of the Best 100 Chinese Motion Pictures (2005).

Kung Fu Hustle (功夫) by Stephen Chow (周星驰). 2004.
Directed, produced, and written by Stephen Chow, Kung Fu Hustle is a wuxia gangster comedy set in Shanghai, China in the 1940s. Stephen Chow “literally squashes the narrative pretence with his foot and leaps wholeheartedly into a Looney Tunes-inspired martial arts comedy that draws heavily on classic kung fu movies of yesteryear”. A wannabe gangster, starring Stephen Chow, aspires to join the notorious "Axe Gang". Along the way, he finds out that the residents of a housing complex exhibit extraordinary powers in defending their turf. It is through his encounter with them that he manages to realize his true power that has nothing to do violence but is all about love and devotion.
The film is cited for Chow’s iconic fusion of nostalgia and romance with slapsticks and black comedies. Many retired kung fu actors from the 1970s were invited to join the production. The elements of mo lei tau comedy present in the film are no doubt one of the best Stephen Chow had done throughout his career among his other representative works such as the God of Cookery, Shaolin Soccer, and Journey to the West.
