This paper will aim to criticize the East Asia film in China and Japan. Specially, I’m willing to reveal the social ideology by analyzing the film in 1900’s~1980’s. It is important that we know how social ideology utilize the body in film. Thus this paper will investigate the East Asia film through the body’s locomotion as musculature which implied collective unconsciousness. The body in film has played a role in emotional and substitution agency. Especially, Chinese films are more reflecting social ideology than Japanese films. In this way, we can perceive the body as a means which can propagate people in Chinese films and Japanese films.
