What depicted in the film is reappearing in China since 1990's

The harsh condition of coal miner in the 1920's is reappearing in China after 1992.  The reason was partially due to the liberalization reform for the urban area in China.  When private enterprise were allowed to develop coal mines, most greedy bosses ignored the safety condition and labor laws, resulting in the same harsh working condition depicted in the movie, an exact repeat of what happened seventy years ago.

When this film was first made, the urban reform of the 1990's had mot been implemented, and it would be a good thing for the emerging business owners, including coal mine bosses, and governmental bureaucrats to re-watch this film for educational purposes.

Mandarin-language cinema across Mainland China, Taiwan, and Singapore explores historical reflection, cultural identity, and personal sacrifice, often expressed through poetic visuals and sweeping narratives. In Mainland China, this takes the form of allegory and large-scale epics that reflect on national history. Taiwan emphasizes intimate modernist realism, generational change, and the search for identity. Singapore contributes stories of migration, multiculturalism, and the negotiation of tradition in a globalized city.

The action genre features fast-paced, thrilling, and intense sequences of physical feats, combat, and excitement. The characters of these stories are involved in daring and often dangerous situations, requiring them to rely on their physical prowess, skills, and quick thinking to overcome challenges and adversaries.
