      Maria's Forgiveness

      The movies of that era were really simple in stories, simple in characters, and very good. They weren't fancy. The story is simple, but the center is prominent and the details are vivid; there are not many characters, but they are deeply portrayed. Let’s just talk about the protagonist Nolan. He is a 1.91 meter big man, the brave and brave man in the mouth of his friend Frank McPhilip. Jin and Li Kui, loyal and honest, kind and simple~~ But this is not the case, Nolan had already...

      very comprehensive analysis

      In May 1935, Ford's long-planned and carefully filmed work "The Whistleblower" was released. Unexpectedly, the box office was bleak and it was quickly offline. However, critics raved about the film's artistic achievements... With the active push of people from all walks of life, the film was re-released six months later, and the box office soared, eventually earning $891,000 for RKO. Critics' praise for The Whistleblower is not a lie. The film poured into Ford's deep...

      We have to be careful because the devil is around

      This movie cost 200,000 U.S. dollars! (Thanks to Douyou Cow-boy here), I have never read economic history, and I don’t understand that 200,000 U.S. dollars was not a big investment for people in 1935, but the total I feel that this movie should not cost a lot of money, because all the movie shots should be shot in the film city of the film company.

    Evaluation action

    "The Informer" made the audience feel the depression of Kibo Nolan's character itself and the people, and showed the weight of depression. Director John Ford's rendering of impoverished Dublin is full of moody texture. The film is also a story of Judas betraying Jesus, interspersed with political and religious plots when it truly shows the social environment of Dublin, churches, taverns, and brothels. The film is gloomy and gloomy, but...
