A Comparative Study of Heroism Embodiment in Chinese and Western Films
Introduction
Heroism is not only an eternal topic but also the perpetual mainstay of different cultures in history. As an essential part of national culture, heroism culture displays the most valuable highlights in civilization and embodies the values of different cultures. True heroism is by no means just a relic of the past, or a few individual acts of the heroes, but is closely related to the preservation and perfection of our personalities.
There are similarities and differences between the heroism in Chinese and Western films. This paper makes a comparative analysis of the similarities and differences between Chinese and Western heroism films and the causes to explore the cultural differences and their deep roots. Under the background of the continuous development of modern society and the constant exchange and integration of Chinese and Western cultures, only mutual understanding can help promote the smooth dialogue between different cultures, and at the same time seek joint references and common development.

- General theoretical survey
Cultural differences refer to the differences in language, values, religious beliefs, ethics, codes of conduct and so on between different countries, different nationalities and different cultures. There are many different definitions of culture, and Spencer believed that culture is a vague set of beliefs, behaviors, attitudes, basic ideas, and values. These attitudes, beliefs, habits, ideas, and values among each member can explain both the behavior of the member and the act itself. (Li 126)
Spencer pointed out that the core of culture is basic ideas and values, that is, assumptions, values, beliefs, etc. They have existed in the minds of people for a long
time but are not recognized, and have a normative dimension that can determine the social behavior of the members of the organization. They will influence people#39;s thoughts, beliefs, and social behavior. It also explains the reasons why people think so. (Li 129)

- Hofstede#39;s Cultural Dimensions Theory
-
Cultural Dimensions Theory is a framework for cross-cultural communication, developed by Geert Hofstede. It describes the effects of a society#39;s culture on the values of its members, and how these values relate to behavior, using a structure derived from factor analysis. Hofstede developed his original model as a result of using factor analysis to examine the results of a worldwide survey of employee values by IBM between 1967 and 1973. It has been refined since. The original theory proposed four dimensions along which cultural values could be analyzed: individualism-collectivism; uncertainty avoidance; power distance (strength of social hierarchy) and masculinity-femininity (task-orientation versus person-orientation). Independent research in Hong Kong led Hofstede to add a fifth dimension, long-term orientation, to cover aspects of values not discussed in the original paradigm. In 2010, Hofstede added a sixth dimension, indulgence versus self-restraint. (Wang 35-36)
