中大坐享偌大校園,兼擁海山勝景,除了吸引遊人如鯽,也有不少影視作品到來取景。1972年,著名導演張徹開拍電影《年輕人》,講述大學生在友情和愛情上的抉擇,由姜大衛˴狄龍˴陳觀泰˴陳依齡˴陳美齡主演。爲求逼真,電影得到中大崇基學院同意,在校園内實景拍攝。
電影中,牟路思怡圖書館和眾志堂剛剛落成;背後的山頭已被夷平,新亞書院和聯合書院正準備從市區遷入沙田校園;遠方的馬鞍山尚未開發,一片翠綠……。影片記錄了1970年代的校園景色,是相當珍貴的中大史料。
The expansive and stunning campus makes CUHK a perfect place for leisure, and sometimes film shooting. In 1972, directed by Chang Cheh and starring David Chiang, Ti Lung, Chen Kuan-tai, Irene Chan and Agnes Chan, Young People, a movie about college students’ friendship and love, was shot in Chung Chi College campus with the College’s permission.
In the movie we can see the then newly opened Elisabath Luce Moore Library and Chung Chi Tang; the hill of the campus was excavated and graded, ready for New Asia College and United College to move from midtown to Shatin campus; Ma On Shan then was a remote and isolated place… More than a movie, Young People is a precious historical record which has captured the scene of the campus in 1970s.
