Narration is a kind of cognitive pattern and expressive pattern; it is a kind of life style and behavior mode, generally existing in life itself. Narrative work is spiritual product; therefore narrative discourse is dominated by social ideology. Thus, in narrative art products, in narrative ways of thinking and in life itself is three important angles in narrative research. Meanwhile, narrative discourse has strong bond with other discourses, so folk narration truthfully places itself in the numerous discourse settings such as modernized broad narration and intellectual narration, which together become the complex structure in today's narrative research. Rooted in China's own soil of regional culture, Chinese art of movie and television is a pattern of cognition and expression for the people in their narrative life. Today the research of local narration in the art of movie and television should jump out of the research fields in literary texts, but to search for more interior rules in the artistic world from the relatively movie and television works.
