      A shattered dream

      The movie I watched five or six years ago, I don't really remember the plot. But the opening song still lingers:
      Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, men have named you
      You're so like the lady with the mystic smile
      Is it only cause you're lonely they have blamed you?
      For that Mona Lisa strangeness in your smile?

      Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
      Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?

      Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep ...

      [Film Review] Mona Lisa (1986) 7.1/10

      Featuring the late Bob Hoskins' only Oscar-nominated performance, Neil Jordan's third feature MONA LISA is a heady dissertation of the unrequited love complex.

      Hoskin plays George, a forty-odd, uncouth small-time gangster freshly out of the joint after a seven-year stint, assigned by his old boss Denny Mortwell (Caine) to chauffeur a West End dark-skinned call girl Simone (Tyson) , with their initial mutual aversion petering out in the progress of time when they realize...

      But angles were man Thomas

      As long as there are films with a dark atmosphere, the city and life on the screen seem to be more authentic than their own. After all, student life is soaked in disinfectant water, and the monthly payment is handed to the streets to let the wind out. It is nothing more than a beautiful and civilian place. Passers-by (because they are passers-by) are kind and lovely, even if there is no sun, the world is white powder, friendly to body and mind, neither will they be dazzled by the glittering...

      Mona Lisa

      I didn't know anything about the background of this movie. I put it into the disc player and
      saw the third shot and decided to watch it.
      Because I didn't know anything, I had expectations
      when I saw this brother George throw the trash can. When approaching the door of his wife's house,
      there is such a rude temperament in this fat body that looks simple and honest.
      Why is the face of that black prostitute so familiar, I have always had this question
      and will like...

    Movie quotes

    • Simone: You're as much cover as a pair of fishnet tights. l may as well be wearing a sign around my neck. All you're missing is the gold medallion.

    • George: See, l'm cheap. l can't help it. God made me that way.

      Simone: Being cheap is one thing. Looking cheap is another. That really takes talent.

    • George: Some woman are whores. Some whores are black. You take what you are given.
