    While watching the film, I always felt that the shadow writer of the driver a few years ago was very similar to the film, regardless of the structure or narrative style, and even felt that the latter was stronger than the rhythm and was better than the film. It wasn't until I watched the entire film that the powerful darkness seemed to grab my neck, making me want to cry but didn't dare to cry. Shadow writer instantly pediatrics in front of seniors. In the darkness and coldness deep down to the...

    Probably Polanski's best film, Robert Downer's script design is perfect, but it does not obscure the director's brilliance, the use of shots is skillful and smooth, and the mise-en-scene is free and easy. Incomparably subtle, the combination of sublimation of viewpoint and authenticity, Chinatown is symbolized into a symbol of sin, and Polanski's film is essentially a raucous...

    A movie should first tell the story well, then Chinatown can be a typical example. In addition, Nielsen's performance and the soundtrack of the film are also very...

    Polanski's scheduling and Nicholson's performance, as well as photography that is too crowded and too loose, is not too suspenseful, but it is an attractive tone that has slowly formed, love it! ! !...

    "Chinatown" itself is not directly related to "Chinatown". As for why it is named such a small creative skill, of course, this refers to the inspiration for Robert Downey to write this script. The ending is very tragic. The whole movie is impeccable in every aspect, from the script to the director, acting, photography, and soundtrack. I like Jack Nicholson more and more and watch a lot of his...

    One of Rango's tribute films, the plot is so similar that the suspense it should have is gone... Fortunately, there is a heroine with a strong taste. You can still maintain a tense rhythm when you roughly guess the plot, which is...

    Absolutely the best noir movie of the 70s, and the best tough-guy detective movie, with Polanski's grim style throughout, and Robert Downey's script winning an Oscar. Chinatown is a metaphor in the film: this mysterious, exotic land seems to be a place free from social and moral constraints, where crimes and murders are prevalent and left unchecked, and the faces of the Chinese in the film are cold and indifferent....

    "As little as possible." I swiped five times, and I still love it. Beyond the noir golden age can do the black, dry golden tone photography, deep and treacherous music, very delicate...

    7.5 points. It is also a classic in film noir, but I personally feel it is much better than "The Falcon of Malta". With the continuous deepening of private detectives in extramarital affairs cases, the scope of the shady story has become larger and larger, and more and more forces are involved. Just when they are almost in a desperate situation, and the audience is looking forward to a big reversal, it ends with a tragic ending. , It is indeed embarrassing, but I am amazed by the director's...

    Undoubtedly the script is superb, standard textbook status. Compared with the ending of the movie and the ending of the script, I prefer the tension of the script, but the ending of the movie has more room for...
