摘要

Meteorological films generally refer to those that suffer from the influence of natural disasters including meteorological factors,resulting in great violence and casualties.Meteorological disaster films contain a large number of traditional mythological motifs.The meteorological mythology composed of Chinese and Western meteorological mythological motifs is the"meta story"model of modern meteorological films,which establishes the logical starting point of its dissemination.Meanwhile,as a cultural resource,meteorological mythology has also completed the creative transformation in modern times.If the differences between Chinese and Western meteorological films on the motif from the perspective of mythology is compared,it can explore the collective memory and cultural genes of different nations from the original civilization.The motif of punishment in Western meteorological films comes from the collective unconsciousness of human fear of disaster and the collective values of deep deity worship;the motif of disaster management in Chinese meteorological films comes from the realistic tradition of resisting nature and the moralization of myth,which will be a good perspective for comparative study of Chinese and Western meteorological films bearing Chinese and Western cultures.
