      knightship

      I watched it a long time ago. I admired the male protagonist when he was not Kylie Minogue's boyfriend. Binoche is not a very beautiful woman, but his temperament is very consistent with the mood of the movie.
      Gentleman's demeanor, chivalry, enough passion, after reading it, it is full of power!
      It's a pity that the soundtrack can't be found anymore, and it's not on Amazon either..desperate..the soundtrack is very nice..I

      . . . . .

      Probably the fatal attraction for women is protection

      . I rushed to Juliet to watch this film, but I think Olivier's character is more exciting, the

      scenes are a bit scary, and the whole environment is scary,

      I don't want to say how much love is Great, the relationship between them could not be regarded as love at first,

      but he wanted to protect everyone who could be protected out of kindness, just like the revolutionary cause he was engaged in,...

      On the other hand, how stupid and numb the Chinese are after the same tragedy

      A very awakening reflection on the destruction of Jews in World War II.

      The story tells the tragedy in a comedy way. Tears after laughter can even wake up the pain.

      The train went all the way to the holy land of Israel, longing for a free and safe life, but the most important countries that it passed through: Germany, Poland, and Russia were actually countries with outstanding records of exterminating Jews in World War II, ranking among the top three in the world....

      light cavalry on the roof

      A thousand people have a thousand Hamlets in their hearts, and a thousand people will experience a thousand kinds of love. During the period of cholera, the plague spread everywhere, the dead happened everywhere, the fear was everywhere, and the blockade was everywhere. Whether it was men or women, nobles or commoners, they were all equal in the face of death. But in the face of the threat of death, there are high and low personal choices. Cavalry Major Angelo and Countess Paulina, through...

      "Out of Time" Love

      "Being in love, only in reason", this sentence is so out of date today. Modern society is a society that pays attention to efficiency, and it is a society that pays attention to pay and return, and everything can be replaced by fast food , Everyone already understands that there is only one life, so let's have fun as soon as possible. Spirit? It's not as direct as a meal or a climax.

       
      Chivalry, gentleman's style, will become cultural relics. Tolerance, sympathy , Loyalty,...
