      still ok

      I think it's half and half! how to say! I've been a little obsessed with thriller sci-fi movies recently, and I think it's very meaningful to watch, but don't be too scary. That's one of the things I hate about this show. It's too scary. Damn, it's really scary, and another point is that the script of this drama is better, which is also a place that pulls me back. The script is well written, and the actors need not be mentioned, and the back is a bit like a 3D movie. I recommend everyone to...

      Easy to learn badly, hard to learn well

        Before expressing my opinion on the film, I have to put aside in my mind the medical interpretations and definitions of "dual personality" or "multiple personality". Because this is a movie, and it is a movie adapted from a novel, it contains some of the original novel's author's views on "dual personalities", and more with the director's views on "dual personalities", and the director is conscious or unconscious. Incorporate his views on life into this movie that uses "dual character" as...

      Doctor, why do you focus on research?

      Well, I didn't know Bergman played this role until I read Grandma Su Xiu's book. At first, it was for the dubbing. I kept the set aside, reviewed her book, and recently read it again. Maybe it was I don't think she's a good match for this kind of role. Her voice is more suitable for middle-aged women. Compared with the rich lady Liu Guangning matches, it's very good. Of course, this has always been her strength. So Li Zilai's match will be better, Yesenia 's unrestrained
      Dr. Spencer is...

      It is inevitable that Zhuyu rushes in front of the street

      Haven't read the original. Comparing the 1931 one with the 1941 one, except for the similarity in the plot + lines of the same original work, I accidentally discovered some changes in this one. Let the high and low stand out. It's a little hard to believe that the floating two years ago also came from him. It was in the era of big studios, so was it forced to make a big cast romance movie?
      In the 31-year-old movie version, the male protagonist has a frank and lovely personality. When...

      Dr. Incarnate

               1. Ingrid Bergman with a little country duck accent is one of the highlights of the film, but at the same time, I thought you were happy when you kissed me. From the very beginning, she was doomed to have no relationship with Dr. Kicker, and in the future she would just continue to fight with his other side, Hyde;
               2. The success of the experiment of exchanging the characters of rabbits and mice made Dr. Kicker confident. Zhen, but in any case, the reason why he started...

    Movie plot

Therefore, a gentle and refined person who was originally considered by the public to spare no...
