Remorse at Death (Chinese: 生死恨; pinyin: Shēngsǐ hèn) is a 1948 Chinese film directed by Fei Mu and generally considered China's first color film.[1] Remorse at Death is a filmed stage performance of the Chinese opera of the same name. It starred and was co-written by Mei Lanfang, one of the century's best-known Chinese opera singers. The film is also known as Happiness Neither in Life Nor in Death and Wedding in the Dream.
Today, as part of Fei's later works, Remorse at Death has been overshadowed by Fei Mu's immediate follow-up, the classic melodrama Spring in a Small Town (1948).
