    The original play's 700-run Broadway hit in '55 won a second Pulitzer for Tennessee Williams, regaining a reputation that was slumped by a top failure. Even if it is a huge success, the film will inevitably be a hot topic: writer and director, whose text is it? The key factor is Ilya Kazan, whose pier situation became the biggest winner in 54 years. Kazan persuaded Williams to change the third act of the original play to gain the director's approval. Specifically, Kazan asked Maggie in the last...

    The dramatic dialogue conflict and the actors' walks are full of character contradictions with just the right amount of explosion. Newman's performance is great, but in contrast, he doesn't feel much about Taylor. There are several touching places, one is the big mom's confession to her husband holding the cake, the other is the scene where the big daddy recalls his father, sometimes people always forget what they love and what they love. The ending is too rough, the content of homosexuality is...

    Rewatch. The script is very good, and the editing is also very thoughtful, but the photography is not good enough, which is a pity (I hope Ilya Kazan will make the movie). Paul Newman is really handsome, and Elizabeth Taylor is an absolute stunner, and the two go well...

    Lots of classic dialogues. Basically, it can be seen as a case study of a family of origin leading to blabla. Among the two dazzling stars of Paul Newman and Yupo, the big daddy is the big daddy. The changes in the role and mentality are just right, and the impression is even more...

    That broken subtitle... I'm sure my hearing has reached a new height~ By the way, this film has a wonderful opening, but the stage traces are too...

    The translation is not good, but "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" is better. The focus is not on the heroine. This is a play for everyone. A bit like "Thunderstorm", family conflicts broke out intensively on a thunderstorm night, and they were all nuclear bomb levels, all torn into a ball of hysteria. The male and female protagonists are a little bit on the air, and the best performer is actually the old man. The lines are amazing, so I want to see it again...

    I didn’t expect it to be such a story. Love is just a vain, family affection is the main thread. Love is not giving, not a gift, love is companionship, trust, and long-term memory... The scene in the basement was so wonderful, and my father kept talking. I love you, my son keeps saying that you don’t love me, seeing paul newman beating his chest and snarling you can’t buy love, I just want to sink into his blue...

    The first half is really annoying. Women are aggressive, men are dodging, children are noisy, adults are noisy...like the sultry air before the storm, the whole family is full of hypocrisy and lies, emotions will explode in minutes, and then one by one. The point is broken, no jade and stone are all burned, but after the rain, the sky is clear and refreshing. Yupomei, Paul Newman is so handsome that people can't take their eyes off. Lock the door is the sexiest line I have heard recently. The...

    "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof": A stage play to maintain traditional family relationships

    "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" was adapted into a movie of the same name in 1958, and was nominated for 6 Oscars. Contrary to the attitude towards the movie version of "A Streetcar Named Desire", Tennessee Williams himself hated the movie "The Cat on the Hot Tin Roof". At that time, Elvis Presley, whom...

    Taylor is not very suitable for this film

    At the beginning of the original book, Margaret was a scolding, but she was not rude, but cute and witty. She thought she was just a lively and witty little woman, but she didn’t expect her to see Brick’s problems in the first place. She said in the first scene. :

    "Of course, you always have that...
