Director Xi is good at enriching the plot with details. Although it is a silent film, the plot and atmosphere are beautifully shaped. The performances of the characters are more staged, but they are all remarkable. The live electronic soundtrack is a bit redundant, and most of the time it's hard to listen to. I think the soundtrack can be removed, and the sound is really better than the...

This film can best show the pianist's live accompaniment skills. In many places, he prefers to play a very light single tone, so that the director's image can shine! Time makes a hero, accent problem, she became the victim of another sound film, male silent female tears, she directed another Monks (Hong Kong translation <> obviously satirized that these men are not man) also dominates, dwarfing the two male...

The first sound film in the UK was actually a work by Xi Fatt. Generally speaking, it was relatively monotonous and turned to sound in the later stage according to the specifications of a silent film, so it can be seen that Xi Fatty's ability to control the camera...

There's something magical about restorations and original sound films. The works of Hitchcock's nirvana, but they have basically established the style of the later period. The heroine is as good-looking as...

The film is very good, the rhythm is tight and there are almost no protracted shots. The restoration effect is good. The story is not complicated but very tangled. Many still lifes also have a desire to express. FM3 also played Metropolis in moma, and using electronic music to play silent films has a very interesting sense of fit. The first time I saw this was a dream of prosperity in Chinatown, and it was also a British...

7. Xi Fat (also the UK) is the first sound film, but the voice of the heroine in the later stage is a bit awkward, and some details are still...

1. The film is partly silent and partly sound, and the mix of silent and sound scenes is a typical feature of early sound films. Hitchcock saw the film as a story of desire and sin. So these subjective states are exactly what he is trying to achieve through a mix of visuals and sounds. 2. There was not enough light to photograph the interior of the museum. A Hitchcock mirror was placed at a forty-five-degree angle, and the interior of the museum was reflected in the mirror. Scrape off some...

Britain's first sound film, and one of Hitchcock's most representative early works. The film depicts the heroine's nervous psychological activities after the murder very vividly, and the plot twists and turns exciting. There is a little gossip: Since the actress Audra is Polish, Joan Barry read the lines during the filming, and Audra just kept her mouth shut during the...
