      The pure world described by Shaweng


      Compared with the dramas of Hitchcock and Asimodo, which are currently rampant, Shaon’s pure world drama lacks suspense and tension.
      In the era he wrote about, the young guy who triumphed after the war and the
      innocent girl in her boudoir who were waiting for marriage would fall in love after staring at the noise of the crowd for a moment. The innocent male protagonist would credulously believe in the instigation of the wicked, and shake his resolve to misunderstand his...

      Simple and silly story

      The scene of sex on the window sill, I remember it was probably watched on TV in the afternoon in high school. In the past, CCTV or other stations would often show Hollywood movies at noon. There were some passionate scenes or revealing clothes. At the time, I thought it was so exciting and even secretly. Look, it's that way now. There are a lot of big breasted women in this film, but I didn't expect so many big names. The leader of the army is black (Denzel Washington), and the others are...

      Like watching an opera

      "Nothing makes trouble" is originally an opera. But I have never watched an opera, I watched a 1993 movie.

      With the headset, I turned on the maximum sound, and enjoyed this opera-like movie in the middle of the night.

      The music is too ecstasy and the words are too beautiful.

      This story is too forgiving and doesn't like the groom, just like the heroine of "Edward Scissorhands".

      The scene is simple, the lines are large and long, it sounds really...

      Do nothing

      The
      second time I watched a movie more than 10 years ago, I discovered that it has a strong cast.
      Several major supporting roles are now

      smashing stars, so I decided to buy the original DVD collection Kenneth Branagh.... Benedick is known as the most suitable for acting. Shakespeare's
      Emma Thompson .... Beatrice
      Keanu Reeves .... Don John, handsome villain
      Kate Beckinsale .... Hero, innocent beautiful girl
      Denzel Washington .... Don Pedro of Aragon,...

      Although it's Shakespeare's, but I don't like it very much... the plot is a bit strange, and the actors feel that Keanu's acting is a bit...

      Looking at it this way, I feel that Sir Ken's comedy probably doesn't fit in the airwaves~ The cast was blinded, but what made me laugh the most from beginning to end was the sudden meat sale and watching Keanu Reeves committing a secondary illness. ....

      Born as a Shakespeare play, the lines in the film have a very solid foundation in writing. There are constant dramatic conflicts throughout the film. Although it looks more like a stage play, it's still interesting to watch. It's rare to see Keanu Reeves, who plays the bad guy, to watch him pretend to be serious, cute and funny. ....
