一江春水向东流 A River Flows Eastward

一江春水向东流
this is ATV's version, made years earlier than China's version in 2005; this is based on a movie in the 30s, definitely must be another worth - rewatching rare atv oldie

(disclaimer: i never saw this movie, so i don't know what it's about really, but i bump into this and want to share this)

opening song

RTV (197X) scene

being a film made in the 30s or 40s, this has anti-imperailistic or anti-Japanese elemnets, being made in the 70s, some of these ifdeas still exist, but of course, now we know better

Have you seen the Mainland version? If so, how do they compare?

to tell u the truth, i never saw the movie or any of the drama versions, but i'll def check out the movie and then china's version (if i could rent it); atv's version has not been released yet or open for any distributors yet, so i can't really say... but seeing how good the modern remake is, this one can't be bad either
