    In the part other than the text, the reality and grandeur of the war scenes are almost staggering. It is said that most of them, including the air crash, are real shots. The story begins with young people in peacetime, and the relationships between the characters are delicate, real and helpless. Symbolism and criticism means a lot of thought in mirror language. In terms of the story, the family clues on the second male are valuable, the loving mother, the powerful and serious father, the...

    Re-examining this movie, from today's point of view, it is almost kicking the cabinet door, but it was as obscure as possible at the time, so the fact that the two female protagonists have any emotional lines will not hinder the main story at all, but I do like Mary a little bit. , while the editing and a few montages of the movie are really...

    Such a wonderful visual picture, it is difficult to imagine that it is a film close to 100 years old. The air battle scene in the film is still truly breathtaking. The goodbye kiss between Jack and David in the film is the earliest male-to-male kiss in film...

    Infuse romance into spectacular battles. A camera mounted on an airplane shoots aerial combat. Carefully arranged motifs, ingenious lighting, and camera movement make The Wings a model of Hollywood silent filmmaking. First Oscar Best Picture...

    Silent film classic. Best film at the first Oscar Awards. Back then, homosexuality could not be spoken uprightly, but this film is actually a gay movie in its bones, and it is still often mentioned...

    [4M] Hollywood heavily invested in anti-war films in the 1920s. The wide-angle and sophisticated battlefield framing, the rocker arm to push the orbital lens, the aerial photography of the clouds above and below the ground, and the camera frame to shoot the real air battle on the plane, to achieve the directness without stunts. "Fibo Girl" Mary's unrestrained, naturally sexy image is interesting, but adding a slapstick comedy character to the entertainment is a rib. In the narrative, the...

    Although the characters at the beginning are a bit naive, and there is a vulgar scene in the middle of the serious girl dressed as a prostitute in order to rob a man, the war scene is shocking enough to go down in history, and the restored picture is very beautiful, but the first Oscar of this film Defeating "Sunrise" is still unimaginable... This also establishes that Oscar has been entertainment first since its...

  • John "Jack" Powell: [drunkenly] Li'l Bubbles... I'm gonna kiss you!

    [puts his forefinger up next to Mary's lips, she closes her eyes, opens her lips, and swoons]

  • Army MP: [to Mary, caught changing her clothes in a room with passed out Jack] Put your clothes on! You can't get away with this sort of thing in the A. E. F. It's back home for you, sister.
