Character evaluation

He Jianjun is a director who is very interested in the exploration of people's deep psychology. He pays special attention to people's inner changes in a special environment. His films "hanging love" and "postman" reflect this theme. He has a thorough understanding of the script and the characters, and always surmises what the director asks for and exceeds the director's imagination. He is a truly independent individual. He has no school, no master, no record, no photo, no experiment, no avant-garde. Not surprisingly, he is not a hot spot, not in the central area, not a favorite of the media, not the focus of investment. However, he means the existence of real and excellent "individual film", which means the independent film quality that neither please the mainstream nor the audience and market (Li Zhengguang, Fujian Normal University, comprehensive review of film).
