Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
《画中人》系中华人民共和国长春电影制片厂于1958年摄制的一部电影的片名，导演为王滨，主演人为李忆兰、白德彰等。剧中核心人物是巧姐和庄哥，中心思想是反封建。影片取材于民间故事。由神话剧改编而成，它赞美了巧姐庄哥纯洁、坚贞和美好的爱情，批判了皇帝及巫臣凭借皇权，荒淫霸道的罪恶行径，呈现出封建时代统治者与人民的尖锐阶级对立。该片故事曲折动人，引人入胜，既适应了观众“惩恶扬善”、“团圆欢喜”的鉴赏心理，又以对皇帝的批判使之闪耀着反封建的思想光辉。该片运用电影技巧，构置了具有神灯色彩的奇异景象，借神话表达了人们对统治者的憎恶和对美好的生活理想的追求。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
