      A very refined and elegant Hollywood comedy (2005.07)

      A very refined and elegant Hollywood comedy.
      Directors such as William Wyler and Billy Wilder are standard Hollywood directors or masters. They are well versed in Hollywood's narrative laws and value orientations. The films they directed have clever and reasonable plots, clear narratives, as precise details as possible, elegant and restrained performances, meticulous composition, smooth and smooth camera movements, and rigorous productions. They are the "good tradition" of Hollywood. They...

      Maybe because I still haven't gotten rid of the vulgar taste of film entertainment, I have watched most of Audrey's works, and my favorite is this one. Probably because it has a fairytale-like plot, a perfect ending, and a clever plot.
          Audrey's role doesn't break through much, she's still elegant, innocent, beautiful, and smart most of the time, but it's enough to make everyone fall. If there is such a stunner by my side, I wonder if it will change my sexual orientation?

      Stealing the Dragon and Turning the Phoenix: Making Deception an Art

      For 10 years since 1954, Audrey Hepburn and Mel Ferrer have lived in the German-speaking part of Switzerland. In 1965, Audrey Hepburn wanted her son Sean to attend a French school and decided to live in a half-hour drive from Geneva Airport. Morges bought a 200-year-old farmstead. This 9-room stone villa was built in the 18th century and named "Peace Mansion". It is located in Tonokenaz, a village in the French-speaking canton of Vaud. The neighbors are mostly fruit farmers, and the environment...

      Wasting Hepburn's beauty

      Just watched this movie for Hepburn.

      Hepburn is old in this film. But it can still interpret the innocence and elegance of the little girl very well.

      At the same time, I sigh that that era was really a relatively social and safe era.

      The middle climax part tells the whole process of the two male and female thieves lurking in the museum to commit crimes, but when I read it with my understanding of the 21 crimes, it really made me fall asleep. .

      The story...

      Steal the dragon and turn the phoenix

      Humorous, funny, relaxed and happy atmosphere, the male protagonist pretended to be hurt and provocative when they first met, and he looked handsome, tall, smart and talented. In the play, Hepburn is simple, cute and silly, and it is indeed charming. From the beginning of disdain to the back, it naturally falls into a fairy-tale happy ending. The plot is not that good, it's a bit ironic. But the witty dialogue and good-looking protagonist totally hold up the film. Hepburn's beauty and...
