      Wet woman in my eyes

      There is such a classic line in the former Soviet comedy film "The Office Story". The female boss said angrily, "You say I'm dry?" The male subordinate quickly replied, "No, you're wet." At that time, I was bored. Why was the female boss so angry? Later, I realized that "dry" in her eyes not only meant dull complexion and an old age, but also meant that her thinking was poor and boring. As the saying goes, "Women are made of water", how can a woman who is "dry" without any...

      Collision sparks of love

      As a Leo, Songwen came to watch after seeing a constellation movie recommendation. The lines that came up immediately made people travel back to the previous era. Although it was a film from the former Soviet Union, it still showed a certain Chinese movie in the 1970s in my mind. some fragments.
         As for the plot, the dull and diaosi man counterattacks the female director, which can really catch the audience's attention. The crying in the office has torn off the mask. Who doesn't wear a...

      Fighting Clan's Office Romance

      The love story of this indifferent female boss and a useless housewife and male subordinate actually lasts for 156 minutes. It seems that the plot is not much, mainly because the characters have heard a lot, but some of the memes are really funny.

      The indifferent female boss is devoted to work, such an image can be said that she is not a normal woman, including herself, this kind of moral restraint on women is really politically incorrect now! Women can choose their own work and...

      Long-lost love movie masterpiece

      Originally, when I had about 20 minutes left in this film, I wanted to write a short review, and I intended to give 4 stars.

      At the beginning, I didn't have any deep feelings for Russian films such as "The Story of the Barber Shop", but this one refreshed my understanding of Russian films.

      Overall:
      [The story] is very delicate, beautiful, sincere, and heartfelt, but it has never been able to make me empathize with it.
      Featured as a comedy. In the era of the flood...

      Copy someone else's stuff. But I like it.

      Male: I...I'm here...I'm here for, I don't know what happened yesterday, what happened to me...Yesterday
        Female : Yes, I've learned it
        
        Male: I'm like a mad dog with a broken chain
        Female : It’s almost like that.
        
        Male : It means that the chain is broken.
        Female: Okay, let’s sit.
        
        Male : I can’t sit, no… it’s better to die standing up.
        Female: Sit down, don’t be afraid.
        
        Male : Thank you
        . Take a seat...

      "You say I'm cold as ice" "No, you are enthusiastic", "You say I have no heart", "You are full of courage", "You say I am dry", "No, you are wet". The translation and dubbing are so powerful. The film corrects my misunderstanding of the Soviet Union because of my lack of historical knowledge. Soviet movies are not as rigid and rigid as I thought, Soviet girls love beauty and fashion, and they are not so hostile to the West. There used to be this kind of light comedy with intellectual flavor in...

    The film is an anthem to beautiful humanity and warm emotions. The director injected unique perspectives, ingenious ideas, and vivid characteristics of the times into the film, making the film serious in appearance and endless tension in connotation, breaking the traditional comedy characteristics. The film's rhythm control and plot processing are impeccable. The director uses the strong contrast between joy and sadness to convey the...
