"Jade Face" is often described as Hollywood's most acerbic noir (a film about the dark side of society). And thanks to a decades-long dispute between its producer, George Jessel, and Fox, the film's status is close to mythical heights. But it also prevented the film from being released, or even appearing on home video shows. And with the conflict finally resolved, the darkest and most unconventional noir classic of all time is finally presented to us in stunning DVD form. Due to repeated...

A careerist who was strangled by the devil

  Aside from that bright tail, this movie can be considered a perfect noir movie. Now we know that the original ending of this movie is not like this, the original ending is: Molly, who was completely dead on Stanton, divorced Stanton and invested in Stanton came to a circus in the arms of the stupid big man in the circus, and had nowhere to go. The circus owner asked him if you would perform juggling. Stanton said: "Yes, I was born to do this." The boss hates this ending so much, it is said...

Lonely

Tyrone Bower's Stanton is wonderful, handsome in appearance, and bottomless in his heart. The psychiatrist Lilith is a standard femme fatale, hateful and vicious even far beyond the deceitful Stanton.

Although it is a film from 1947, the script is very smooth and smooth, with a strong sense of fate, and at the same time, it has a delicate portrayal of human nature. Magicians are a profession that is based on deception, and it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false....

The film itself is trying to probe the audience's subconscious and create a dream/fantasy that everyone can share (and profit from). The "spiritual mediums" here, whether it's Gena or Stan, also try to gain magical fame and fortune by detecting other people's subconscious reactions, saying what you think, and touching the audience's emotions. Movie creators and circus "psychic" characters are also similar in the same way as the play within the...

A story of self-destruction driven by greed. It turns out that the original authentic version is about this, and the 2021 version is completely incomprehensible. Deception in deception, small insignificant. One male protagonist and two female protagonists are quite eye-catching, and there is a sense of "This man is from the earth" in the mysterious spoofing tricks....

Jade Face Love Demon, the translation of this name is really good, tyrone power can really afford such a genius liar, I still feel that it is still a class barrier, after all, the bottom layer can't play the top layer, and the bottom layer is smarter and the higher it climbs, the harder it falls. That's...
