      One of the hypotheses about the difference between men and women under the logic of Hollywood popular art creation! Its foothold is not rigor, but fun.

      In fact, most of the movies of the last century could not stand up to very rigorous scrutiny, but the creative culmination of each type still came from the last century. My interest in Hollywood comes from its popular art side, not its Serious art, the latter in fact I have almost never seen in Hollywood, including from the works of masters such as Kubrick, Hepburn and Orson Welles, there is also little impeccable rigor, Hollywood The popular art system of China has created...

      Remembering the elegant age

      Henry Fonda's dullness and calmness happened to widen his play and his unique style. A tough guy, a wise guy, a humorous person, and a unique flavor.
      It's the heroine. The tall man can be cute. Although there is still a trace of strength, it is already rare. The natural advancement in the performance is due to the smooth plot. In short, it is a film that allows you to spend time easily.
      Of course, the most memorable thing is that, as someone commented, the comedy of that era, the...

      Do you know who I am?

      This movie is wonderful, and it is out of the ordinary. The atmosphere of the movie is a relaxed comedy, but after I watched it, I have some uncomfortable thoughts. There is a big gap between the status of the male and female owners, and such love stories are not uncommon. But the story is handled very well. First of all, the roles of the hero and heroine are distinct and unique. The male protagonist is in a superior position but doesn't like Ronghua. He likes to read books and pursues...

      I want nympho Barbara Stanwyck

      As a neuro comedy (screwball comedy), from the perspective of the script, it is almost more interesting than the originator of neuro comedy, "One Night Romance", and Capra is still very good at it. This movie sometimes seems too artificial, especially Henry Fonda. At first glance, he pretended to be stupid, and I couldn't stand him anymore.

      But Barbara Stanwyck's role in it is too lovable, and the appearance is much better than in Double Indemnity, I found her very attractive. The...

      Humor

      There are a lot of laughs, in the words of a Taiwan variety show, it's just stalking everywhere.

      The most obvious thing is that Henry Fonda stumbled. He fell 4 times during the family banquet, changed three clothes, was smashed by an apple at the beginning, then tripped, and got off the train and fell into the mud. And the end is another trip, echoing the beginning.

      That horse is really the best supporting role.

      Sturges's nervous comedy is not nervous enough, it is...

      It was a lot of fun watching Henry Fonda get played around. Love is not afraid of danger, as long as you use your imagination to fight for it. There are many jokes in the film that are triggered by body...

    Evaluation action

    Movies like "The Lady Eve" are very difficult to shoot. If you don’t find a way to make it look effortless, you won’t be able to shoot at all, and Preston Sturges maintains a kind of The breathless balance includes the comedy of love, deceit, and body. The last two lines of the film’s dialogue are no less than the classic dialogue at the end of "The Passionate Fire". The film is as ridiculous as Hawkes’s film in its own way, but it...
