    Oh my God, I hate the heroine so much. It would be better to dig into the Jewish theme with less emotional time, but the side of the heroine reflects the theme. PS: You two are not going to be...

    The subject matter is good, Pike is good, but unfortunately the narrative is mediocre and the ending hastily. btw, the door knocked on at the end...

    The most straightforward methodology to explain "why shouldn't discriminate": let the audience be the discriminated against. Great, could be more compact. I vomited at the end of the...

    The performance of the lines is not smooth, but the writing of the lines is superb and...

    Weird Mom has more series than the heroine. This concept was interesting at the time, but now the ideology has already entered the next...

    The discussion of the problem is still a little shallow. Plus one star because I've been hooked on Pike since this...

    Such a dirty gentleman's agreement! 1. Kazan does not intend to explore the source of anti-Semitic ideology, and criticizes the self-confessed but hypocritical and indifferent pseudo-equalizers and corresponding social prejudices, which are still outdated to this day and can be replaced by racial/sexual discrimination, etc. 2. What really hits you the most is what happens to your child, and nothing else. 3. The final change of the heroine is Kazan's mainstream compromise. Personally, I hope the...

    In 1948, the 20th Academy Award for Best Picture! In 1948, the 5th Golden Globe Awards Best Picture in a Drama Series! This one is relatively poor in Oscar BP. The story is okay, but the director made it boring. It became a didactic movie. Now that this film is released, I'm afraid it won't even get a...

    The characters are masked, the lines are staged, the plot is loose and tight, and the ending hastily. Although the theme is political correctness, its courage to expose and speak out is still invaluable. It is also a good science for foreign audiences who are unfamiliar with anti-Semitism, and for the ubiquitous discrimination and prejudice in this silent majority society. , Although the times have changed, the past is still deafening. Straight male cancer, black regions, racial discrimination,...

    The character's experiential life, perhaps the earliest from Kazan's "Gentlemen's Agreement" (adapted from Laura Hobson's best-selling novel of the same name) and British author Orwell's "Road to Wigan Pier" Coal workers...

Gentleman's Agreement quotes

  • Tommy Green: Pop, are we Jewish? Jimmy Kelley said we were. Our janitor told his janitor.

    Phil Green: Well, what did you tell Jimmy Kelley?

    Tommy Green: I said I'd ask you.

    Phil Green: Well, it's like this. Remember that movie Kathy and I took you to, and you asked if things like that really happened?

    Tommy Green: Kathy said they were pretending.

    Phil Green: Well, I'm pretending I'm Jewish for something I'm writing.

    Tommy Green: You mean like a game?

    Phil Green: Yes, but I'd appreciate it if you promised not to tell anybody it's a game.

    Tommy Green: Okay, Pop, sure.

  • Phil Green: I've been saying I'm Jewish, and it works.

    Dave Goldman: Why, you crazy fool! It's working?

    Phil Green: It works too well. I've been having my nose rubbed in it, and I don't like the smell.

    Dave Goldman: You're not insulated yet, Phil. The impact must be quite a business on you.

    Phil Green: You mean you get indifferent to it in time?

    Dave Goldman: No, but you're concentrating a lifetime into a few weeks. You're not changing the facts, you're just making them hurt more.
