      Hope~Cinderella~True Love

      I watched this movie because I was curious about the two conspiracy girls playing opposite roles. After reading it, I want to praise Zhang Ziyi and Gong Li's acting skills. The story is good, at least I was moved.

      Is there anyone who has watched this movie like me and thought about the trivial matter of first love in the small fresh Thai movie? The heroine is all because of an accidental encounter, and then finds true love, and keeps working hard, just to get closer to true love....

      I have seen a woman like Hatsumi.

      I have seen a woman like Hatsuma,

      In the red dust, entangled in chaos,

      But there is an inch of space left in my heart,

      To a loved one, or to yourself.

      Helpless, when enjoying the prosperity, he has already exchanged his own freedom.

      At the moment of compromise, complete loss and instant aging.

      You can even smell rotten.

      Gong Li did a great job.

      A man does not know a subtle move of his own,

      What kind of turbulence will it stir in a girl's...

      A skinny self-entertainment

      What has never been subverted is her eyes that are always like pools of water. Even though she was cold and warm in the early years, she was still clear and pure, reflecting the innocent and tranquility of a girl.

        Then, due to fate, in the future, the skin will be like fat, the muscles and bones will be lustrous, the shoulders and waist will be shrunk, and the clothes will be fine.

      believe it will exist

      Who said it wasn't a good movie? The picture is beautiful and heart-warming, and the love makes people sigh. This is love, right? Such helplessness. This movie has a happy ending. But how many such loves in the world have a happy ending? In such a sophisticated life, such love can only make us yearn for it.

      Maybe we are that little Chiyo now. . . Look at the world with panic and despair. . We long for the presence of someone who will take us out of despair and kindle a little orange...

      A dream come true

      Although I gave it a 4, it's still one of my favorite movies. A little regret can make it appear more real and moving, gorgeous quarter.

      Many people don't like Zhang Ziyi, and I'm not vulgar. If it weren't for that film music class, I definitely wouldn't go to see such a film by myself. But when the movie ended and the subtitles were silently sliding on the screen, I didn't want to leave for a long time, and I must admit that I was moved.

      This story means so much to me. . ....

    Shooting Highlights

    Gordon, the original author of "Memoirs of a Geisha", has always regarded himself as a Japanese clothing expert, but when he came to the crew to visit the crew, he was confused by the costume designer. Later he ridiculed himself-he knew that the costume design was so complicated, he should let the geisha wear it. jeans.
    The pair of stilt-like clogs that Zhang Ziyi wore when dancing solo in the snow was twelve inches high.

    Evaluation action

    The film "Memoirs of a Geisha" itself is like a geisha: under the glamorous and exquisite appearance, what is hidden is just a mediocre heart. In fact, tearing off its gorgeous coat, "Memoirs of a Geisha" only has a bunch of artificial oriental flavor. It is completely fabricated by Hollywood techniques, and this alone may offend countless Asian audiences and many fans of Eastern culture in the United States. But what is more telling...

    Movie quotes

    • Mother: [tallying up little Chiyo's costs, after her fall] Doctor Mora is very expensive. You seem to be racking up quite a debt. Kimono, destroyed. Train ticket, Mr. Bekku, rice and pickles, geisha school, and on top of the money I paid Mr. Tanaka. And for what?... And now I hear your sister has run away. She didn't wait for you and now she can never come back. You must forget you ever had a sister.

      [handing her a bundled package]

      Mother: We are your only family now.

    • Auntie: [with Chiyo, folding kimonos] Only reason Mother tolerates Hatsumomo is because she brings in good money. Never forget, it is Hatsumomo who pays for your supper, the clothes on your back. By the time she was twenty, she had already earned back her purchase price. Unheard of! She has been the talk of the hanamachi ever since.

    • Auntie: Geisha needs an elegant wardrobe, just like an artists needs ink. If she is not properly dressed, than she is not a true geisha.
