    Olivia de Havilland won the 22nd Academy Awards for Best Actress. The whole film is like a traditional romance most of the time, and it only starts to get exciting after my dad's...

    It's sad to see how many fathers are belittling their daughters in the name of love, yes, she will be despised for everything she does, but she can't feel love, and her daughter is not beautiful and shy, so how could there be Men really love their daughters, and they have to step on them before others step on them. How apt the name is, the heiress, inherits not family property and love, but indifference and meanness. What a sad ending. It is not terrible for anyone to close the door, the most...

    What made me angry was not only the heroine's suitor and her father, but also her aunt, who knew that there was a fire pit in front of her, and she was beating gongs and drums, expecting her niece to step on...

    How icy and sighing. The director seems to be determined to show how cruel people can be, the father who emotionally abuses his daughter, the pursuer who is obsessed with money, and the mainstream social consciousness represented by his aunt who believes that women should make sacrifices in order to complete the family, step by step Catherine. Miss Alienation. If she had the opportunity and the patience to see the complexity of human nature, perhaps there was a deep tenderness in the...

    It still looks great now. But the heroine's appearance is really too old to accept...

    Based on the novel "Washington Square" by Henry James. This version, the story is relatively weak, I haven't read the original, I still prefer the handling of the 1997 version. The heroine's specialty in this film is embroidery, she is clumsy, she dances cutely, and her attachment to her father is not obvious. However, he has a straightforward personality. When he meets a handsome and sweet male protagonist, he is immediately willing to fly away with him; he shouts that even if he only likes...

    The three hurt each other, and each suffers from bitter fruit. De Havilland's post-production is really superb, every turn and transition is so smooth and natural. This also benefits from the excellent grasp of the character's "psychological thriller" in the original Henry...

    Havilland is well-chosen and well-acted! The temperament and behavior before and after the lovelorn are different, and the best actress deserves her name. But I can't understand Cathy's resentment towards her father. People should have self-knowledge, and even if they don’t have it, they shouldn’t get angry when others point it out frankly. This is a defense mechanism for those with low self-esteem, and it is also a sign of a person’s inability to accept himself. These all portend tragedy. It's...
