Barely two points. Although the logic of film noir is that women equal conspiracy, Wells and Hayworth's scene is too hard. Wells's writers and directors in this film are all hard-core logic. He asked the woman "Are you going to show me a tour?" This line is stupid. , in the end, the court was noisy and the trial, the expressionist dream at the end of the film got a point, and the moving mirror of the whole film was dull and...

Orson's not so serious. A very efficient and interesting story. The lines are good and the audiovisual is very special, but the latter is rich and deliberately...

Hayworth is much darker than Gilda, but the two head-up lines are too annoying. You know, she must look up when she is playing with Wells. The black and white light and shadow could not hide the unsightly...

Indeed, the burst of the maze of mirrors is as gorgeous as fireworks, but only Orson Wells knows the significance. After all, he is the wise man who is madly devoted to madness, isn't he? Who can pass him crazy? A sensible audience can't and can't immerse him in it. Because of the privileges of latecomers, they can only appreciate destruction, and destruction sometimes creates...

Everybody is somebody's fool. Mystery movies always make me feel like the first half is too long, and the mirror is great. What's Orson Welles'...

Wilson's stunning mise-en-scene is truly breathtaking, courtroom fights, haunted house walks, mirror shooting, all deeply branded Wilson's unique, femme fatale, even if the abridged version is not full enough, but The poetic dialogue after the climax highlights the essence of the film noir text to the point of inexhaustible, ending in the sea, which forms a subtle correspondence with the above; To Qifeng learns a lot of...

100504 Rita Hayworth not only looks good, but also hides the fox's tail well, only revealing her old bottom in the last ten minutes. The first 3/4 is typical film noir, and the last 1/4 is typical Orson Welles' inner-mapped expressionism.

The audio-visual has been a little too hard, but the essence of Noir is to install the pen, and the rhythm is also slow to burn to the climax of the playground crazyhouse, which is cool. The narration is really good, although the Irish accent is hilarious. Orson is still your favorite noir novel. Chinese elements seem to be suspected of cultural appropriation, but in fact, there are also sound and visual counterpoints that are closely related to the fate of the characters, which is an...
