Set in the late 1920s and early 1930s, Sun Yu’s Little Toys reflects on the fate of China through the character of the film’s tragic heroine. The artisan Ye (Ruan Lingyu) supports her two children by making toys that her husband sells in the city. Her world is shattered by the death of her husband and the disappearance of her son amid fights between rival warlords. Ye migrates with her daughter Zhu’er (Li Lili) to Shanghai but finds she can barely compete with imported toys. Zhu’er is killed during Japanese attacks on the city. Alone, Ye mechanically continues to sell her toys. She gives one to a child; who is her son but, if she recognises him, she decides he is better in his new wealthy adoptive family. The trauma of what she has lived through finally pushes Ye over the edge. In the climatic sequence, she frantically implores pedestrians in Nanjing Road (and the film audience) to fight against Japanese aggression. Ruan Lingyu is superb as the ageing Ye marked by life, and is complemented by the vibrant Li Lili, five years her junior. The blending of romantic idealism with harsh realism and social criticism is characteristic of Sun Yu’s oeuvre. One of the first Chinese filmmakers to be trained in the USA, he introduced new montage techniques to the Chinese screen, as seen here in the juxtaposition of toy weapons and real war machines.
Sun Yu (1900–1990) is one of the key directors of his generation. His work combines an experimental approach to cinematic styles with a social conscience and a profound humanism. He began making films after returning to Shanghai in 1926 from studies in the United States of America, which included courses in scriptwriting and theatre at Columbia University, as well as cinematography and editing at the New York Institute of Photography. In 1930, Sun commenced a long-term collaboration with left-wing studio Lianhua Film Company, becoming one of its key directors. At around this time, a film group was set up in the Communist Party to promote films with progressive themes — writers, critics and directors rallied to create and support progressive cinema. Dominant social realist styles were also shaped by the May Fourth Movement, which originated in 1919 as a mass anti-imperialist protest promoting anti-feudalism, nationalism and the liberation of the individual; the ensuing cultural movement explored new and progressive styles and subjects. Left-wing films often addressed the pitfalls of modern life, its iniquities and changing gender roles, and also exhibited a growing Chinese patriotism in reaction to Japanese aggression. Sun’s films comment on social disparity in humanist terms with lively characters and situations, avoiding didacticism but containing key left messages. Little Toys 1933 with two great actresses, Ruan Lingyu and Li Lili, Sun’s powerful nationalist statement on economic self-reliance, cuts between images of handmade toys and military hardware.
