    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.

The Postman Always Rings Twice quotes

  • [about Nick]

    Frank Chambers: I'd like to see him get plastered like that some night and drive off a cliff.

  • Nick Smith: [about his plan to sell Twin Oaks and move to Canada to take care of his sister] My mind's made up.
