    The structure is slightly loose, but on the premise of not reading the original, the direction of the plot development still maintains a good suspense. Until the end, I finally understood the meaning of the film title that always attracted me, "The Postman Always Rings the Doorbell Twice", and it was fate after...

    Don't compare the novel with the movie. If the movie is better than the novel, it means it's a bad novel. If the movie is worse than the novel, it's a matter of course, and it usually is. It doesn't matter whether the novel is good or bad. Yes, there are two judging criteria. The ending is not good, and the pursuit is a bit inadvertent, although there is a foreshadowing that cannot be seen...

    Desire will pull you close to the infinite abyss, and there is no way to escape. Lana Turner always wears plain clothes, which is indeed a seductive...

    "Classic" in Classical Hollywood, a modern case against Odysseus. Unlike Nicholson's version in '81, the absolute and only pivot in this one is Lana Turner's lady boss. In white and black, in black and white, everyone revolves around the queen, and everything is slowly and powerfully destroying like a vortex. The queen eventually died in white, but what about Lana Turner in...

    He wore a soft hat, the curvy "famous" sweater, and the leggings of the 1940s, with a defiant expression on his face. In the days before Marilyn Monroe, there was almost no one who could hide Turner's...

    There were so many desperate mandarin ducks in the noir films of that era, and it was still fatalistic. I liked the last sentence very much: this is like a letter you are looking forward to, and you are wandering in front of the door, for fear that you will not hear the doorbell, you Never realized he'd ring the doorbell twice, God is like the postman, he always rings twice, you're usually in the backyard and you can't hear it until the second...

    The Sin and Punishment of the Ordinary

    When Frank met Cora, the lipstick that slipped from Cora's hand was rolling towards Frank in a flamboyant manner - this scene, can't help but think of the bamboo pole smashed on the head of the Ximen high official. It seems that all roads lead to Rome, and although the adultery between the East and...

    The pure love story of 'slut' and 'adulter': Weakness robs you of the things you hold dearest

    The first time I went to read the original movie. I like this novel about a "slut" and an "adulter" killing a confused husband together for two reasons: First, the first-person narrative style of "adulter" Frank is neat and tidy, not only succinctly outlines a depressing and hopeless atmosphere, It...

The Postman Always Rings Twice quotes

  • Cora Smith: It's too bad Nick took the car.

    Frank Chambers: Even if it was here we couldn't take it, unless we'd want to spend the night in jail. Stealing a man's wife, that's nothing, but stealing a man's car, that's larceny.

  • Cora Smith: That note I left Nick, if he gets back before we do and finds it...

    Frank Chambers: Where'd you leave it?

    Cora Smith: In the cash register!

    Frank Chambers: That's terrific, that's the first place he'll look.
