A few details in "The Old Woman Killer"
This black and humorous old movie has a small format, with single characters, events, and locations, but it achieves a back-and-forth that many movies today cannot do, forming an exquisite "closed loop".
1. At the beginning of the film, a panoramic shot of the environment is given first. At the secluded end of a street, there is a single low house with a train station behind it, a row of railroad tracks and a railway bridge. You can see from the back that all the people walking down...

Dr. Thief - An Old Woman's Guide to Murdering
This strong British style has successfully made a black crime film involving robbery and murder very humorous. The Coen brothers remade it in 2004. The classic of the original film, no one can compare to the United Kingdom in terms of serious humor. The aristocratic fan in your bones always asks: even if you are performing a comedy, you should make you shout "Fuck you can even pretend to be...

This is an old British movie. Only the UK can make a gentleman thief. Five strong and ruthless thieves can't deal with a helpless old lady. It's a funny movie. why? That is really a nosy and obstructive old woman. She can easily solve the problem with one knife and one shot, and get a considerable amount of stolen money. Tolerance of others is to block oneself. After all, the power of justice, or the power of goodwill, should not be underestimated. The old lady is better than having no...

It's alright, please don't disturb the old lady who lives alone and has a few birds
A troubled old lady, an obsessive-compulsive gang leader and four big stupid accomplices. Smart people think they are smart, young people think they are young, they think everything is under control, but it turns out that Mrs. Whitefield is the accomplice who should not be involved. The destructive power of this old lady is too strong.
As...

British comedy can be so good
The first is to like the tones of this old-fashioned film, warm, peaceful, and bright.
The soundtrack directly expresses the character's emotions, such as the old lady's hesitation when she opened the door to the thief for the first time. This made the old man directly think of cats and mice, haha.
The suspenseful atmosphere in the film is not inferior to Hitchcock. For...

8.0/10 points. At first glance, the remastered OAR Blu-ray. The 1955 film is remarkable. The refined and ingenious British cold humor is completely different from the vulgarity and savagery of the American people today. . . The director and screenwriter are American. . . Tom Hanks starred in the 2004...

Very interesting. A bunch of stupid thieves with all their organs and an old lady who won't fight without fighting. People who discriminate against the elderly will eventually cry for the elderly,...

It fully shows that to be a bad person, it is not enough to be bad, strong, and armed, and you must be "really ruthless". A simple fable under black humor, a thief is neither stupid nor a thief, but he is an English gentleman with a careful plan. A sketch-style fable, cute enough to hide the thick smoke of death, and pitching is a performance like a stage play, without procrastination, with a knife in hand. The level of stalking and horror at the beginning is full, but in the end, the joking...

A good-looking black comedy, with a "No Survivor"-style gloom in the second half. I wish there were more movies like this. btw the male lead is so...

It's so beautiful, an old lady who can't make people want to kill no matter what and a group of big men who kill without blinking an eye 4K@11th bjiff Sanlitun...
[driving past the police station, they see their case of money sitting in the doorway]
Harry: I don't believe it. I don't *believe* it!
Louis: Shut up.
One-Round: It's just... sitting there... look, couldn't we...?
Professor Marcus: No one, I hope, is going to suggest that we steal it.
[Professor Marcus enters the phone booth right as the phone rings. On the other end, Claude is in another phone booth outside the train station, watching Mrs. Wilberforce collect their trunk]
Professor Marcus: Now, Major, before we start, let's press button A, shall we?... That's better... Major. Ma - Major! I want you to keep calm, speak quietly, and concentrate. Have you got that? Splendid. Mrs. W. should be coming into view just about...
[hums]
Professor Marcus: ... now... Now she's driving away.
[She does, but comes back]
Professor Marcus: . Major, Major, Major
[throws phone book]
Professor Marcus: RELAX! Calm down!
Claude: Back to the station! She's come back to the station!
Louis: [entering phone booth] What's wrong? Major!
Professor Marcus: Louis! Louis!
Louis: Major, tell me what's happening! Major!
Professor Marcus: Louis! Louis, will you mind your own business, please!
Harry: [Harry enters the phone booth too, and One-Round tries to squeeze in with them] Louis! Give us a listen, Louis! Come on, let me hear, will you? I want to hear!
Harry: [to One-Round] Get out! Louis, I want to hear what he says!
Louis: [to One-Round] You get out! Major, tell me what's happening!
Louisa Wilberforce: [coming out of the train station with her umbrella] I'm always leaving it.
Louis: [hearing Professor Marcus laughing] What's she doing?
One-Round: What's going on here?
Professor Marcus: It's all right, it's just that she went back to get her umbrella!
Louis: [as Mrs. Wilberforce has just discovered the money, with Louis pulling Harry aside] We must get her out of here.
Harry: A snatch?
Louis: Get her into the car.
Louis: [as one of Mrs. Wilberforce's guests arrives] We'll have to take them both. We've got to get away!
Harry: [as two more guests arrive] What do you think we should do? Charter a bus?
