    A weak man filled with so-called talent, builds a personal kingdom with violence and machismo, and devours those who come close to him. He was involved in a murder case, and the heroine believed that he was not the murderer and fell in love with him, but as terrible as the murder was the man's morbid desire for control, which gradually made her live in anguish that she could not speak. At the beginning of the film, the male protagonist appears to be relatively normal, with a bit of justice and...

    A good love story is a sad love story! The old Hollywood classics seem to be enjoyed, the scenes are very gripping, and the lines feel very subtle (just feel that the characters in this kind of movie talk in a certain way). The only thing I felt was almost was that at the end, when the heroine said to the other side on the phone, "If only I had told me yesterday", the hero should have slammed the door and left. The last line that the heroine recited and the goodbye were a bit different....

    One love and one murder, when these two lines are intertwined because of rumors, the movie is completed in one go. Before, I always felt that Bogart's acting skills depended more on his temperament. After reading this, I realized that many expressions are so natural that they are like his own. It is nothing more than the character's violent character that makes these expressions magnified to be visible. The movie is very good, the script, director and lighting are all top-notch, very...

    Nicholas Ray's lighting is bull cunt, perhaps insinuating the trend of McCarthyism at the...

    One of Bogart's most pleasing to the eye. . . Broken heart I was born when she kissed me, I died when she left me, I lived a few weeks while she loved me. And now I'm back in a lonely...

    "Your love kept me alive for weeks...", but suspicion and control ruined it. A simple story, but with a film-noir-style packaging, Bogart's half-face paralyzed expression, as always, superbly interprets a rude and paranoid writer. The paragraphs in which Bogart made friends and couples recreate crime scenes are...

    Auxiliary lighting and shadows don't create real "danger" after all, and Bogart lacks a bit of madness compared to James Dean or Farley...

    Nicholas Ray is undoubtedly one of the greatest directors of the 1940s and 1950s. The first hour has an almost perfect complexity, but the limitations of the times begin to show in the exchange between the heroine and the second girl. The director is afraid of the audience. It is impossible to extract the state of mind of the character from the vague expression, so it is fully revealed through the mouth of the character. After this point, only the artificial and deliberate laying leading to the...

    I was born when I met her. I die when she leaves. I lived the few weeks with...

    OMG! marvelous! It is dangerous to fall in love with someone with a strong ego, which means you will become his sacrifice. He digests your feelings just to water his own stuff. "They don't often tell each other how deep their love is... Conditioning pine nut juice like me, how about you, half asleep, with a groggy head, anyone who sees us like this knows that we are in love."—— It's so beautiful, it's so beautiful that it's like deceiving people and deceiving...
