    The opening 8 minutes and 24 seconds of the long mirror and irony of Hollywood...

    Self-mockery and deconstruction, drama and reality, pay homage to an anti-type of film noir, like a big joke made by a big player; the first long shot in the opening is not only "long", but also laying the tone. It came out; the lines were well written, and in some places it was as if I heard Ultraman showing off his...

    #星光光無影內文神作# Inside the Hollywood studio, black movie posters refer to the text, with their own comments and plot introductions (same mash), the 8-minute long shot scheduling at the beginning of the film and the long shot of the bunker in the history of film. Discuss...the big game where he committed crimes but got free, and the "Shawshank" where he was innocent but behind bars...modern version of "Sunset Boulevard", too rich and too interesting to pull the film! #The sixth...

    Altman's typical group scene...there are so many Hollywood big and small stars in...

    Robert Altman used Michael Tolkien's highly satirical script to attack Hollywood studios for exploiting filmmakers and trampling on films. The long shot at the beginning is a dazzling show, and the scene where RE.Grant plays the writer who tells the story until Tim goes to Greta is amazing. The whole film deliberately did not evade the "Hollywood plot" that has been mentioned in the film, and "Film more than ever" is also a lie. PS: Tim surprised me when he stood up for the first time in the...

    This acidic, probing satire, styled as a wicked murder mystery, is the best deconstruction of Hollywood since "Sunset Blvd". Altman is so masterly deft at his mise-en-scene that all the complex, interwined elements are counterpoised and flowing. Sublime opening...

    The real and fake flowers play really well, especially the end of the film that is so...

    Only recognized Julia Roberts!?@@ And the ending I may have over-guessed :P Tim Robbins is so...

    The form is classic, I can only say that I don't like watching this kind of film very much. I prefer to watch Acura's truth, goodness and...

    It's really not my thing. The eight-minute long shot at the beginning is said to be awesome, but it made me collapse. . . . What makes me feel a little brighter is that there are several big stars in the film who have gone through the cutscene, playing soy sauce, and the "Bicycle Stealer" shown in the theater in the film, a classic black and white...

  • June: I don't go to movies.

    Griffin Mill: Why not?

    June: Life is too short.

  • [after watching The Bicycle Thief]

    Griffin Mill: Great movie, huh? So refreshing to see something like this after all these... cop movies and, you know, things we do. Maybe we'll do a remake of this!
