Romance of a Calligrapher is a very traditional kind of historical romance, a nice and pretty movie all about old-school Chinese literary culture, and unlike many of its peers this film also has a fairly strong sense of historical authenticity with its costuming and visual design. Not to mention a historically authentic film set in the Jìn dynasty too, which is even rarer. Jìn Dynasty is quite appropriate, since it is also the period of the “**魏晋风骨 / 魏晋风度**”_(lit. Wei-Jin Style/Wei-Jin Elegance")_; a cultural movement lifestyle that was all about freedom of self-expression and passion, subversion of traditions and overall high-minded and spiritual attitude towards life. Very bohemian times, roughly spanning the late 2nd century to the 6th century CE. There are enough historical films about wars and politics 'till the cows come home, even within Chinese historical movie genre, so I wanted to share one that is all about the rather than the **武**. A perfect holiday film, if I do say so myself. Unfortunately, as with _[Hua Tuo and Cao Cao](https://gentlemenofthehan.wordpress.com/2022/06/18/side-project-hua-tuo-and-cao-cao-movie-1983/)_, the available RAWs are still not the best in terms of quality and colour-grading, though its by no means completely unwatchable. And yes, unfortunately the best RAW file I can find does have that watermark stuck on there, because I guess the encoder has something to prove (then again so do I, so hey glass houses) Thankfully the imagery of the film does still come across really well. I hope you enjoy the translation, and share this film forward! ![enter image description here](https://gentlemenofthehan.files.wordpress.com/2023/12/14h42m54s992.png?w=500&h=)
