      the missing savior

      (First published on WeChat public account: Gilda's Hong Lingyan)

      Hollywood has always been keen to tell the story of redemption and redemption, and the redemption between lovers is a common theme - two people fall in love and develop an intimate relationship, at the same time, one-way or two-way...

      I just want to see you again

      At that time, Hollywood movies didn't show up, they didn't come out, they only told stories in a down-to-earth way. Every line, every scene is exquisite. Theatrical turns are all stuck on point. Emotional pushes follow professional skills without showing off.

      The valuable thing about this movie is...

      The reconstructed and restored version has several clever edits. The clip in about an hour recalls the collection of PTA's AV trailers in "Boogie Nights" and the home video in Lao Ma's "Mean Streets". The middle is a bit discouraged, but the plot behind is full of tragedy, with a Chaplin-like texture. After the uproar, they are all alone.

      Maybe the original is the best, and I still prefer the 1937 version, even though there wasn't a lot of singing and dancing in that film. But the witty and lovely story and the bird-like heroine still left a deep impression on me. In this film, Judy Garland's personal characteristics are too prominent, and her age is too old. This makes people feel that the heroine is not vicky, but is still judy. From beginning to end, she is just herself. Of course, you don't have to talk about her about the performance. The center of this film is the extremely beautiful singing and dancing. Judy Garland's talent in this area is unparalleled. The attendance rate of Daguangming is only about 50%, which is slightly lower.

    A Star Is Born quotes

    • Vicki Lester: [Norman has returned to find her in a nightclub. She walks over to him with a small laugh] Hello, Mr. Maine. You turn up in the strangest places.

      Norman Maine: Don't I now?

      Vicki Lester: [stops laughing, suddenly shocked] And you're cold sober.

      Norman Maine: Well, you'd better make the most of it!

    • Norman Maine: Do you ever go fishing?

      [Esther looks confused]

      Norman Maine: Well, do you like prizefi--have you ever watched a great fighter?

      Esther Blodgett: I-I uh--

      Norman Maine: I'm trying to tell you how you sing.

      Esther Blodgett: Do you mean like a prizefighter or a fish?

      Norman Maine: Look...em--

      [leads her into a kitchen]

      Norman Maine: There are certain pleasures that you get--

      [realizes that the sound of clanging dishes is intolerable and they depart for the outside]

      Norman Maine: There are certain pleasures you get, little-little jabs of pleasure when a swordfish take a hook, or-or when you see a great fighter get in right for the kill, see?

      [Esther still looks confused]

      Norman Maine: You don't understand a word I'm saying, do you?

      Esther Blodgett: No, not yet. Why don't you try bullfights?
