      twilight lovers

      "Love IN THE AFTERNOON" (1957), Billy. Director BILLY WILDER, screenwriter IAL DIAMOND, the two of them have collaborated on many classics. I often hesitate to choose this one or their "Passionate", but after thinking about it again and again, I still feel that its screenwriting technique can be used as a film. textbook. Reasonable and reasonable jokes are constantly appearing, and they are very warm. It is definitely worth watching. The theme song "Temptation FASINATION" is still lingering...

      Twilight Love

      The trouble is, people are too attached to each other. Scenarios and tears can easily cause sadness. People should act like they all know each other on the plane.

      He is a man who loves and runs away to live for love. I will remember.

      It's her, the typical too serious attitude that should be avoided, that's stupid. Feeling fragile, saying that I am the first person she loves. Most girls are very attached to their first love.

      He didn't believe it and didn't let himself get...

      Love in the afternoon random thoughts

      A slender lady and a million-dollar gentleman, one is pure and bright, and the other is a master of love. Paris, a private detective, a female college student studying the cello, concerts, the slow train of a mall tycoon traveling around the world, these elements seem to be no longer out of reach in this age of dazzling film technology and material scarcity, at least on the screen. Stories like this are well known to editors and audiences alike.

      It's fate that the two of you are together, nothing else

      Isn't simple the best?

      Many people seem to be asking too much, what morality, what norms, what depth and rationality, don't you feel tired? Hepburn just standing there is enough to make people appreciate for a long time, not to mention there are so many moving expressions, which of us is not moved by her photos? It can only be said that the director is too smart to make full use of the actor's usual places. As for some people who are worried that the girl after marriage is so sure that...

      The mischievous elf conquered the rich businessman

      After watching Twilight Love, I didn't seem satisfied, so I went back and watched a few wonderful places. I am really amazed by Hepburn's perfect performance. She has succeeded in shaping the beautiful and shy girl of Yali, who is very hot on the inside. Her every move is the perfect expression of a flower girl's cherishing spring. A mischievous elf, of course, will not succumb to the world, and of course will not like a naive and shallow boy like Michel. What she longs for is to conquer Mr....

      In fact, I really don't like the few movies that Wilder and Hepburn collaborated on. Cooper is old and can work with big beauties one after another. It's a blessing. . . Hepburn played everything like in a state of Roman...

      Look at Hepburn's face and see it~ a cliché story of an old playboy and a nympho girl who is not deep in the world. The daydream of Uncle Control and the gold-worshiping girl,...

      I think if I had read it five or six years ago, I would have liked this story a lot. The girl Hepburn played was so cute, like a cat. I am not optimistic about their love. This kind of love story should be made up by Eileen Chang. The little girl is playing tricks with the old lover. In fact, the old man has seen through it at a glance and accompanies her to play the house with a smile. Chilling just thinking about it. The music of the film is well...

      Michel: What are you talking about?

      Ariane Chavasse: They're very odd people. When they're young, they've their teeth straightened, their tonsils taken out and gallons of vitamins pumped into them. Something happens to their insides. They become immunized, mechanized, air-conditioned and hydromatic. I'm not even sure whether he has a heart.

      Michel: What is he, a creature from outer space?

      Ariane Chavasse: No, he's an American.

    • Frank Flannagan: [dictating some business notes into his recorder] Item 7: Telegram to the Mayor of Venice. Preliminary estimate on the cost of overhauling your canals is 87 million dollars. If you want my advice, drain the water out of the canals and pave them over, or those plumbing bills will kill you.

      Frank Flannagan: [continues] Item 8: Attention all Pepsi-Cola bottling plants in Great Britain. Suggested slogan, "Pop in for a Pepsi"... okay by me.
