    The old sci-fi movies of 1954 can be made like this. It is really amazing, and it seems that it is still very exciting today. Every time I look at Verne’s things, I think he must have "crossed the...

    Undersea wonders are the surface, anti-war ideas are the inside, and the introduction of nuclear elements is also quite characteristic of the times. However, compared to the long-length advance of the original work, the foreshadowing is full, and the two-hour film length is still a lot...

    French science fiction novelist Jules Verne's classic adaptation, directed by Richard Fletcher, 1955 film. Although the film was shot 65 years ago, combined with the technical level at that time, its special effects and scenery really deserve the best of the 27th Oscars. The novel was read 20 years ago when I was reading, and most of the plot details were forgotten, but from the perspective of the film, the interpretation of the professor and Captain Nemo should be no problem. A man of great...

    Last week, I was teaching "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" to my students. I didn't have time to read the book. I read half of the book and hurriedly found a movie. A bit boring up front. The characters are very different from what I expected from the original scene. I can't quite understand how surprised and imaginative people who were sixty or seventy years ago were when they saw this, and felt a little mediocre, which is a...

    Did the people on that ship love to imprison play or what? What if you let Ned out. A boatload of people is taking the wrong medicine. I have no desire to understand Captain Nemo's depth of thinking and selfless love, thank you. I would have slept ten times halfway through without Kirk Douglas. But the boat is cool. If there is wifi in life under the sea, it will be endlessly beautiful. I don't care about Verne, but this subject is worth a...

    Be a pioneer in action-adventure monster movies. In those days, the underwater world was really very novel, and now it needs to be more macroscopic or microscopic to have the same effect. Space universe, microbial...

    The defective is good

    Things that are defective are good. Twenty thousand li under the sea is too heavy in my heart. I read the novel when I was in elementary school and gave me the enlightenment of science fiction. This caused me to expect too much of the movie at first. When a novel is adapted into a movie, it seems...

    The brilliance of humanity at twenty thousand miles under the sea

    The famous original works have various children's picture books in the early period in China, and the themes are more in line with socialist values. From the elementary school years, you can see various translated novels. This kind of public foundation makes the audience of this literary adaptation...

    Conseil: Maybe we are lucky. It might have sunk us.

    Ned Land: You scare me. Be a good loser, Professor. The fish that got away is always the biggest one.
