      Lonely for the rest of my life

      In 1928, Buster Keaton joined MGM, and his career went downhill from then on. Later, he drank heavily, divorced and married, and was confined to second-rate acting all his life.

      Fortunately, he made this "The Photographer" that year, and fortunately it was his first film in MGM.

      The locker room and the swimming pool are very funny. The laughter of a classmate in the back is also funny, like eating shoe polish. The laughter drives everyone.

      Even if you try to put aside the hindsight of "MGM destroys Keaton" and the Chinese audience's unconscious rejection of Chinese-related differences, look at the film "Chinatown Violence" from the perspective of Hollywood itself. The climax scene would also feel very absurd: in order to make the picture more exciting and eye-catching, Keaton took the initiative to hand the knife to the combatant and threw the light bulb from the window into the crowd? ! Even if Gyllenhaal's 14-year-old film should be staged in the third act of the protagonist's dark fission, they must be carefully weighed and weighed for a while, because the violation of the professional ethics of journalism and the conscience of human nature is so outrageous that it seems to be framed and smeared. And this film is only used as a positive auxiliary joke to set off the quality of the protagonist, and is completely unaware of the strong self-deprecating elements of the material itself? This shows how weak Hollywood's awareness of introspection and reflection on the power of the liberal left media was in those days.

      8 points. Buster Keaton's films have always had a problem with insufficient storytelling. Fortunately, this film successfully avoids this. The level of Diaosi's counterattack is really interesting. My favorite is not the last gang battle, but the run up and down the stairs. Did that era really create such a four-story house for filming? ?
