The film depicts the prosperity of the city from the beginning, with many economic products under the industrial system, such as cruise ships, automobiles and bustling streets. The city girl came to the countryside, was dressing up in front of the mirror, and was about to visit the farm boy. The city and the farm are a strong binary opposition, and this form of expression at that time also symbolized that the industry would also begin to invade the simple countryside. The city girl...

The first silent film, an unexpected total acceptance. There are no cumbersome lines and dialogues, and the characters' inner feelings are expressed with attractive body language and expressions, and the control of the music is so perfect. It is obviously a color film of the last century.
When talking about silent films with her non-fan friends, she faintly threw two words: boring. Black and white films themselves are difficult to accept for ordinary audiences, let alone silent films....

The beauty of the hostess makes you fall in love. In such an ordinary love story, the director's guiding skills are amazing.
When the male protagonist wants to kill the female protagonist, the distance between the male protagonist and the female protagonist who walks step by step toward the female protagonist indicates that the freedom of life of the female protagonist is violated, and the proximity of the distance indicates violation rather than inherent intimacy. The thought of the...

"Silent Film and New Technology"
Recently, I watched two silent films in succession, the other is "The Passion of Joan of Arc". I like both of them, one expressing love and the other expressing faith. This film once made me cry, especially in the church section. The white wedding dress, the church bell, and the kind priest made me deeply feel the sanctity of marriage. In fact, whether it is a silent film or a sound film, the image is moving. This is the only thing that distinguishes the film from other art forms. No matter...

Wife murder and honeymoon. Two clumps of floating rushes, "Don't be afraid of me!", the kiss that caused the traffic jam, the crystal-clear tears on the cheeks, the black pig who strayed into the dance floor, the crony that slipped off her shoulders when she applauded. The male lead is sometimes like Adam Sandler, and the female lead is sometimes like Drew...

"This song of husband and wife belongs to nowhere, but nowhere, and you can hear it wherever you are. Whether it's sunrise or sunset, in the chaotic city or under the broad skies of the countryside, life is mostly alike, sometimes bitter, sometimes sweet...

The ending is unexpected, the emotion is real, and it thoroughly demonstrates the charm of silent films. Only then did I realize that sometimes it doesn't matter whether the movie has sound or...
[opening title cards]
Title Card: This song of the Man and his Wife is of no place and every place; you might hear it anywhere, at any time.
Title Card: For wherever the sun rises and sets, in the city's turmoil or under the open sky on the farm, life is much the same; sometimes bitter, sometimes sweet.
The Maid: They used to be like children, carefree... always happy and laughing... Now he ruins himself for that woman from the city - Money-lenders strip the farm - and his wife sits alone.
The Woman From the City: Tell me! You are all mine?
