    Hollywood works that were rarely filmed in China at that time were quite interesting. Regardless of whether they were historical or not, they were still beautifully...

    Nice movie, looking at the Chinese revolution from an American...

    In the category of movies produced by Hollywood studios, the theme of this film is unprecedented. Colonization, revolution, enlightenment, justice, and the country have all been deconstructed, and modernity is irrational. Steve McQueen has nothing to say, well-deserved "King of...

    This is one of the most attentive Hollywood movies I have ever seen related to China. Not only can I understand the Chinese dialogues that have nothing to do with the main line, but the architecture and scenery are also authentic Chinese customs. Although the director tried his best to maintain a neutral point of view, it is a crime to remain neutral under the muzzle of a dead or wounded gun. Sometimes there is no right or wrong, people always have to stand on one side to...

    Watched a movie with a tight chest. . . The film is about 3 hours long but I still don't know where I want to stand to watch such a movie. Maybe I feel like the last few words the protagonist said. . . PS has never thought that Steve McQueen has any good looks before, although many people say that he is handsome, for the first time in this film he thought he was quite good-looking. ....

    Knowing the word slopeheads is a bit of a smear of the image of the Chinese people, but the filming is good. A few scenes are quite impressive. Two people from China and foreign countries are singled out (a Japanese actor nominated for the best male supporting role). It's a...

    One of the best American movies that reflect on the war and the Americans themselves, very critical. I filmed "The Sound of Music" just to save money to film this, I admire it. . It is a pity that it was not possible to film scenes on the mainland during the special historical period, otherwise Changsha would be recorded in film history....

    In other respects, the performance of the war scene is too poor. If you can blow up a wooden ship with a gun, you have to board it, but it's impossible that even a wooden ship can't be blown off by a gun. In the end, the captain had to stay and say, I will cover you to run, and then immediately rushed to the street. Everyone who ran out ran back immediately, and the protagonist went on to say that I will cover you and run. . . This is purely for the sake of getting a bento. You can't run...

    Perhaps it was the first Hollywood blockbuster filmed in Taiwan, which had a strong pessimism and nihilism towards the existence of the West in Asia, and it seemed to herald the blow to American confidence in the Vietnam...

    The most commendable thing about this film is to look at this special historical period from a fairly fair perspective. Generally speaking, I am quite satisfied with the film, the rhythm is good, the photography editing is also very good, and the several sections in the middle are impressive. But the film is still too long, and there are some places in the middle that are a bit procrastinated. Steve’s performance is generally very good, Attenborough’s performance is clearly very good but there...

    If I say, cover your face and cry when you see the middle, is it a bit 13

    This is a Chinese translation. I borrowed randomly from the community library. Still rely on English subtitles.
    The movie lasts 2 hours and 55 minutes. There is still a break in between. Watching the first half of the episode, the heartache is unbearable. Burst into tears.

    Review of the Sand Pebbles

    An American friend recommended me to watch this film, and there is also the painted veil. This is the reply after watching:

    Dear Jim,

    Thank you for the movies you lent me. Both are great
    movies. But if I were American, I would enjoy it more
    because these movies are very American in the way
    heroes...
