ABSTRACT

The leading player of the sixth generation directors, Wang Xiaoshuai and the most of his works have made a remarkable mark and taken the most important position in the sixth generation of Chinese Film. Wang Xiaoshuai has kept interests in the life of Chinese at that time by the way of estrangement, and tried to describe people who have troubles in their lives through his films. Thus, his pictures, in which a marginal man is the main character, show obviously their neglected aspects of lives and awareness. The looks of the marginal man in his films are distinguished by their configuration- first, the sense of isolation of artists or the elite, second, the sense of alienation of the common herd, and last, other maladjusted people's awareness of marginal man. In the essay, across the study about the aspects of marginal configuration and awareness of characters in Wang Xiaoshuai's films it is aimed to provide the factual understanding towards the sixth generation directors' films and their main consciousness of theme as well as their films themes.
