      wonderful

      Wow in 1961, what were we doing back then? I don’t know, maybe they can’t even get enough food. I heard that people in some places regard immortal soil as food. Of course, there are quite a few people who don’t lack food and drink. They even have abundant spiritual food. The chairman's quotation, Lei Feng's diary, Marxist-Leninist anthology, etc.

      "" The director is really a wonderful person. In fact, I am quite confused. They are both human beings, and there is such a big gap between...

      Swan of West Germany

      Pamela Tiffin's Yan Jiangcheng sucked me in slightly. In black and white movies, I couldn't tell whether she was wearing a black coat or other dark colors, or crimson, but I don't think it's dark brown. In the movie, she is a passionate 17-year-old girl named Scarlett. She seems to have the best things in the world, and she doesn't know her identity as the rich second generation of capitalism. She is busy getting engaged with the person she loves, getting engaged and breaking up, and...

      Nice words and good stories

      Very good movie, the overall degree is very high, the entry point is very interesting, a story of the Coca-Cola company that is mixed between East and West Germany, and suddenly a story that has nothing to do with the United States is so logically told by him. , To output values.

      The fly in the ointment is that I have always disliked ideology-based jokes. It always gives me a condescending feeling. But in fact, ideology is just ideology and should not be high or low.

      The film is...

      A chowder film

      The quality of the film is not actually Billy's pinnacle. The whole film became a sub-collection. It is not that many of the jokes are from this film, but Billy directly quoted the jokes of the time to borrow flowers to present the Buddha, just like quoting Wagner's "Valkyria" and Khachaturian's "Saber Dance". But in fact, there is not much thinking about human nature in the whole film, which is not comparable to "Sunset Boulevard", "Prosecution Witness", "Peach Apartment" and...

      114 Fantastic! Billy Wilder is really comfortable with comedy subjects. The 100-minute film is not procrastinated at all. It all relies on the lines to create jokes, satirizing the Cold War, satirizing communism, satirizing capitalism, and laughing and crying every minute. The performances of the actors, especially that little East Berlin communist, are simply amazing! Best comedy I've ever...

      Billy Wilder's skill is too strong, and satirizes the two political systems of capital and communism at the same time, the script is too strong, a Sabre Dance burst out all the crazy power, absurd and hard to look at, machine gun-like speech speed and occasional appearances The laughter keeps the rhythm of the film running at a high speed, and it is so perfect that I am ashamed not to give it five...

      To make the audience willing to watch commercials, only Wilder can do it. Just like the BGM, the rhythm of the film is tense and cheerful, and the black humor with punch lines contains Wilder's sadness. For the double irony of the two systems on both sides of the Iron Curtain, perhaps he did not really satirize a certain society. The system is just a direct reference to the shortcomings of human...

      The wife is so powerful. It has been a long time since I was hanging and laughing so much that I couldn't relax my thighs. Completely caught and walked, the rhythm is very tight, the twists and turns, the amount of information is too large, the word overwhelmed can be said to be very appropriate. The brain hole is amazing, it is really good for many language stalks. The structure is still the kind of traditional comedy that constantly creates troubles and solves them. The beginning is small,...

    • C.R. MacNamara: C'mon, let's make an effort.

      Phyllis MacNamara: Yes, mein führer.

    • C.R. MacNamara: Schlemmer, how can we find out what happened to her? Can we get any information from East Berlin?

      Schlemmer: Only through official channels, in triplicate.

      C.R. MacNamara: What if we just picked up the phone and phone the authorities over there?

      Schlemmer: It is not that easy.

      C.R. MacNamara: Why not?

      Schlemmer: There is no direct phone service to East Berlin. You have to call Stockholm, from there go through Warsaw to Leipzig, then to East Berlin. And then nine times out of 10 you get the wrong number.

      C.R. MacNamara: Try it anyway.

      Schlemmer: [Clicks his heels] Yes, sir.
