The 39 Steps

1930s humor

The black-and-white screen, with the occasional flickering of flowers, reminds me that this is an old movie.

Although the plot and suspense settings are not as thrilling as "Psycho", the small details and humor make people smile.

I actually feel that it overlaps a bit with Wes Anderson's style, especially the clips and expressions that show the villain. There's a director's perspective that's far from brutal and sees everything early.

The supporting characters are also very...

thirty-nine steps

The audience panicked as gunshots rang out in the concert hall. A foreign woman (Lucy Mannerheim) asks Richard Hanne (Robert Donat) if he can spend the night at his home. The woman told Richard the next day before she was killed that the spy group Thirty-Nine Steps had to be stopped from sneaking state secrets out of the UK. In order to prove that he was not the murderer, Hanna had no choice but to go to the Scottish Highlands to find clues. On the train, he sought the help of a blond young...

The Three Women in Hitchcock's "The Thirty-nine Steps"

    Hitchcock's film abandons concepts, slogans, and collage-style filmmaking techniques, and uses the logic of life to explain the layers of the story in an excellent way of driving ordinary people into desperation, and makes good use of light. The effect of shadows and shadows highlights the emotions and inner logic of life of the main characters. And the three female characters in "The Thirty-Nine Steps": the female spy Anna Bella Smith, the farmer's wife Margaret, and Pamela,...

On "The Heirs", "Amazing Heart", and the huge role of pretending to be 13 in promoting fans to tout Mary Sue's drama

It's past the age where I like to watch Mary Sue dramas. Of course, most people in the world have a Mary Sue complex. In the story of Su Lai Su's death, they obtained supreme pleasure, and in order to have a strong sense of substitution, the first condition for a Mary Suli woman is to be incomparable in appearance. It is very important to be close to them.
          However, Mary Sue is really not to the taste of most aunts (most aunts have stayed away from Mary Sue), so the ratings of...

Small comment

Hitchcock's early works. Innocent good people get involved in mysterious events and become the great heroes to save the world. This plot is a bit similar to North by Northwest, but compared to it, it is heaven and earth.
    Not at all exciting, not romantic at all, the protagonist is cute, but the opposite feels like an idiot, the relationship conflict is not at all advanced, and the plot from A to C has no substantial sense of rhythm. Unreasonable, unexpected pleasure. In an ambiguous...

3.5/5 Very interesting one of the early works, the pattern is similar to North by Northwest. Escape in handcuffs and a unique intelligence store inspired later suspense films. In the tense escape process, he never forgets to intersperse humor and flirtation everywhere, Xipang's consistent style. The male protagonist's "improvisation speech" is...

It's really embarrassing to watch, it's really different from the "Thirty-nine Steps" I read when I was a child. I suspect that Hitchcock's later work on the disappearance of a lady of the same theme is some kind of technical adjustment to this film. The suspenseful romance in the spy theme, the dialogue between the male protagonist and the three women is called a red-faced, basically asking you to believe why I don't want to believe why I should believe you. This kind of bullshit, from a male...

The plot structure is quite different from the remake. ....
