      If there is love

      After returning from Bei Ai, during the intense and substantial recovery period, I was able to find time to watch such a commercial film...This is the ninth film I borrowed from the community library...Count it again, count it again ...

          Movies from the 1960s. Won many awards. Trinity. Talk about black and white matching, and then the two families can't accept each other. The final turning point is the speech of the white parents—the style is entirely a television speech by the US...

      When the hell are we gonna get some dinner?

      The story told in this film may seem to be just a bloody bridge today: black and white matching + Lolita (the heroine is 23 years old, the male protagonist is 36 years old) + flash marriage; but in the 1960s Against the background, the forward consciousness of the film is undoubtedly worthy of respect.

       "Guess who will eat dinner" does not overstate racism. On the contrary, the confrontation between father and son, the memory of love by wives, and the encouragement and blessing of the...

      "Guess who is coming to the dinner"-The Voice of America

      In that hot era of racial problems, youth problems, and problems of social trends, Hollywood ushered in two good movies starring Sidney Poitier in 1967, but it’s very interesting that Poitier played The characters are basically the styles and styles of the actor's "Lily in the Field" before, and the white male protagonists who acted in the opposite role with him performed wonderfully and were nominated for the actor of the year. One is "Hot Night", and the other is "Guess Who Is Coming to the...

      I can’t write a short comment because there are too many words

      Katherine Hepburn is not one of my favorite actresses. Maybe everyone only knows another Hepburn. But in fact, this fame predates Audrey. Catherine Hepburn is independent and strong. Is a well-deserved queen of Hollywood. The actress who has won the Oscars for Best Actress the most, but has never received the award once. It seems to be donated. I attended the Oscars ceremony once and everyone stood up and applauded. This movie is a collaboration with her lover. Very classic. Regarding race....

      Touching sensitive social issues, in the second half of the character exchange and dialogue scenes, the game shows social and psychological contradictions. The disadvantage is that the characters' behaviors are set in advance for a sense of drama urgency, and their characters and their personalities are set in order to reach a consensus. The ideas are...
