worthy for my liquor and my tear
This film is worthy of my 10-year-old bottle of Canadian Club Blend. I was holding the empty whisky bottle and watched with tears in my eyes.
Raoul Walsh, one of the 36 founders of the academy, has seen his sleepy nights at Motianling, the bloody battle of annihilating bandits and the shroud of horse leather, and they all like it very much.
In Raoul Walsh's head, there is a strong sense of the times. I think the 1920s in America is like the 1990s in China. Out of law, only... -

Success or failure turns empty
Life Express that year. Going around, when people have forgotten, the former characters reappear. Life is like a battlefield, and pit jumping is like a bar in Casablanca. "I'm a good man, give me a chance to prove it." "You did learn all the answers." "You asked all the questions, too." When singing, the piano paused for a while before starting again. Sing, has it been filmed so real in 39 years, the most eye-catching part after watching it for so long is the secularization. Looking for...

One of the ancestors of gangster films, Cagney's acting skills are so good, Bogart is just a younger brother in front of him. The lines are brilliantly written, especially when Cagney tells Bogart at the end of the credits: People build things, we destroy things, and this is not our time. Undoubtedly pulling the film to new heights, gangster films are never just about fighting. The role of actress Gladys George is very interesting, a very interesting...

The economic crisis of alcohol smuggling in World War I, from the experience of three soldiers who jumped into a trench, shows the joys and sorrows and madness of that era. ps: The script provides good material for future plots, love crimes and other genres. James Cagney is worthy of the "AFI Centennial Top 100 Stars", director Raoul Walsh, who is an actor can always find those shining points (discovering John Wayne) , has a strong sense of the times for the film. it's a good...

- Except for Cagney, the others are basically functional characters. The scattered structure enjoys a relatively unified tone in a series of highly expressive superimposed montages. The smooth context is derived and effectively organized, which is consistent with the Compared with other gangster films of the same period, the superimposed montage is generally used to complete the rapid advancement of the rhythm, which is relatively clever and...

It was the last shot that I realized that it had been in the computer for so long, all because of Scorsese's recommendation. When asked about her relationship with the deceased, the woman who was holding her lover said indifferently that I have never figured it out, which made me...

Narrator: 1929. As the dizzy decade nears its end, the country is stock market crazy. The great and the humble... the rich man and the working man... the housewife and the shop girl. All take their daily flyer in the market, and no one seems to lose. Then like a bombshell comes that never-to-be-forgotten Black Tuesday, October 29. Confusion spreads throught the canyons of New York's financial district. And men stare wild-eyed at the spectacle of complete ruin. More than 16 and a half million shares change hands in a single day of frenzied selling. The paper fortunes built up over the last few years crumble into nothing before this disaster which is to touch every man woman and child in America.

Narrator: [Opening lines - various clips of 1930's news footages are shown] Today, while the earth shakes beneath the heels of marching troops, while a great portion of the world trembles before the threats of acquisitive power-mad men, we of America have little time to remember an astounding era in our own recent history. An era which will grow more and more incredible with each passing generation until someday people will say it never could have happened at all. April, 1918: almost a million American young men are engaged in a struggle which, they have been told, will make the world safe for democracy.
[Scene switches to World War I battlefield action, somewhere in France]

George Halley: [while running across the battlefield ablaze with an artillery barrage in progress, Eddie has just dived into a gaping shell hole for cover. He practically lands on top of another soldier who is already in the crater] Now, do you always come into a rat hole like that?
Eddie Bartlett: What do you want me to do, knock?
