On how to ease the audience's moral discomfort in comedy
"Wind and Rain" is a very good comedy.
It is worth mentioning that because I love its prototype so much, the movie "Girlfriend Friday", even though I already knew about the existence and reputation of "Wind and Rain", I didn't want to watch this movie. It's very simple, no one wants to see their favorite works that have been perfected and then edited (zao) edited (ta).
Out of confidence in Billy Wilder and love for Jack Lemmon, I clicked on this movie. However, after more... -

Everyone says that this movie is a remake of "Girlfriend Friday", but I haven't seen the predecessor, so I won't comment on which of the two is better. I'll just say something about Billy Wilder that made me Amazing handling.
The first is the profile of the character . Generally speaking, the protagonist tells us how awesome he is through his behavior, but in this play, the protagonist just appeared in a completely condescending manner, humming a...

Billy Wilder's rendition is not as definitive as the irony, and the irony doesn't always end there. The loss of justice in the journalism profession, the strong manipulation of the media age, the unscrupulous use of politicians in their struggle for power, and the desperate people at the bottom are forced to do nothing. Only when a society's irritability and moaning are seemingly carelessly inserted by Billy Wilder, and they are linked together. When it comes to laughter, the irony loses its...

Feelings of watching movies late at night
Girlfriend Friday Pearl Jade Before, the biggest feature of this film is the last collaboration between Billy Wilder and Jack Lemmon Walter Matthew Iron Triangle!
Although it is an adaptation of a drama, this is still a comedy with distinct Billy Wilder characteristics, 360 degrees without dead ends, all-round stereoscopic complaints, homosexual elements, a man, a man, and two love each other and kill each other, and cannot be separated from each other. The heroine is basically a... -

Is Front Page black enough, black enough, noisy enough, and noisy enough. Jack Lemmon's speech rate is no slower than that of Prince Grant and Princess Roselyn Russell, and Walter Marsau is also consistently sophisticated, cunning, and annoying, with a tight rhythm and adequate control. All are very hardworking.
If you haven't seen Girlfriend Friday, you'd give this movie more than 4 stars.
But unfortunately, there was a guy named Howard Hawks who took the two Whisperers I...

The ending was so unexpected, it was the finishing touch. Wouldn't it be better to have Jack Lemmon in One, Two, Three? James Cagney tells Billy's lines, which makes people feel breathless, or Jack Lemmon is more suitable, the overall story is average, but many details are quite...

The fact that such a wonderful story can take place in a prison office shows the screenwriter's skills, and the inclination of career and life is also in line with mainstream values. The introduction to the media and the prison system is somewhat rigid, but this is precisely the source of the film's conflict and comedy . The editor-in-chief's last move caught people off guard. A classic of a...

Practice the bomb theory for half an hour and add one star to the ending. I rarely pay attention to the actors' acting skills, but the male lead can only be said to be an old...

News, politics, romance, comedy, farce. The first good show I watched in 2018. Really interesting. To fully expose the profound themes and let the contradictory realities and conflicting worlds manifest themselves, the creators simply hide behind the scenes and the audience is brought into the talking film. The victory of the Bolsheviks, journalism ethics, professional ethics, human concern. Dostoevsky also always bestows the light of humanity on prostitutes. Occupations do not represent...

Hildebrand 'Hildy' Johnson: Sure kid. Never end a sentence with a preposition, never draw to an inside straight. And never, never get caught in the can with Bensinger.

McHugh: During the shootout Mrs. Phoebe deWolfe, age 33, watching from a window across the street, gave premature birth to a 5½ pound baby boy. Sheriff Deputies immediately examined the infant to make sure that it wasn't Earl Williams, who they knew was hiding *somewhere.*

Hildebrand 'Hildy' Johnson: I got a few markers here. McHugh you owe me five bucks.
McHugh: I'll pay ya' tomorrow.
Hildebrand 'Hildy' Johnson: I won't be here tomorrow.
McHugh: I'll send it to ya'.
Hildebrand 'Hildy' Johnson: I'll bet it gets lost in the mail. Schwartz, six seventy-five.
Schwartz: For what?
Hildebrand 'Hildy' Johnson: For being a lousy poker player, that's what.
