    Strictly speaking, the 1964 edition has nothing to do with Hemingway. Of course, this one only comes from the novel for the first ten minutes. After all, the novel is limited in length, and the adaptation needs to be expanded. I still prefer novels, but the expansion seems to be a bit of a continuation, thinking of Borges'...

    Adapted from Hemingway's novel, it is completely different from the 1964 version, but the old version wins. Traditional noir films, with multiple and single-perspective narration, the plots are interlocking, there is no noise, no redundant words, some are just concise, revealing layers of real events, just like dominoes. The women of that era, the director only asked them to portray one characteristic:...

    The tragedy of a love triangle

    It’s been a long time since I’ve watched a good movie, but I’ve always wanted to watch a collection of old movies produced by CC. However, because of this and that, I’ve never seen such an old movie in such a boring afternoon, this one. The plot of the movie is very cleverly conceived. The...

  • Jim Reardon: How well did you know the Swede?

    Charleston: Me? Mister, I guess me and the Swede were about as close as two guys can get. For nearly two years we weren't more than eight and a half feet apart. That's how big the cell was.
