The origin of "Shangri-la". It's a beautiful, concise, and clean movie. I haven't read the original, but the characters in the film are already perfect, and the character of the characters fits well with the tension of the plot. Although the film There is a difference between Chinese culture and the characteristics of Tibetan areas, but it seems to be a trivial matter in the whole film. Everyone is intensively searching for the Shangri-la in their hearts. This film is based on the original work, This original work is the Westerner's "Peach Blossom Spring"-"Lost Horizon". The original work and the film have many influences on later generations, and today the relationship between Europe and Tibet began with this masterpiece.
Without the sorrows and joys of small people, without the label of the American Dream, without coincidences, without speeches, and without elements of comedy, it is really not Capra. However, the film still conveys a lot of his usual thoughts, such as tired of the flashy world, longing for pure environment, equality and peace between people, criticism of money, greed, desire, and struggle, etc., although in future works They all have different degrees of manifestation, but none of them "speak" so bluntly. It's just that this kind of film with obvious morality is a bit boring. It's called the "main theme" here, and it's a bit too much to watch. Although there are only male protagonists in the film lineup that I can name, all the male actors are familiar faces, and several of them have appeared in Capra's films many times. They are considered to be the Queen's team. They are also featured in some well-known films. They are the golden supporting roles commonly used by the big directors of that era, and each of them has played a role that is quite joyful, but I really hope that this lineup will not be released from this film.
