      An in-depth chat about the Oscars

      In 1938, Frank Capra made it to the top again with "It's Like a Dream", which cost a lot more than "It Happened One Night" four years ago, and was more star-studded. Columbia leased James Stewart from MGM. With Lionel Barrymore, the former was not yet an A-list star, yet Capra was convinced he would make it. It was beaten by Warners' well-made Technicolor color film "Robin Hood" and the French film "The Great Disillusionment." The adaptation of the Pulitzer-winning play "Living Like a Dream"...

      Happiness is king

      The role of the daddy in this film is very successful, whether it is not trying to be wealthy and not selling the house in the front, or in the back of all kinds of calmness in the prison room. It makes me want to compare him with our Chinese hermit. In a materialistic society, which is not for money, the old man actually has a certain economic foundation, otherwise he can't be so confident. But his understanding of money is different from that of the capitalists in the film. He got a lot of...

      accept or believe?

      Frank Capra is the best publicist in America.

      He told the world that the United States is not perfect, but there are some values ​​that people in this country are pursuing.

      When you saw you can't take it with you or it's a wonderful life or mr. smith goes to washington, you knew that these were dramas, but you just liked this feeling.

      How does it feel? harmonious.

      What is harmony? Just look at you can't take it with you. You don't need to do too many text...

      Floating like a dream

      This is a film praising the positive attitude of living and working for hobbies.

      I love my home

      Oscar for Best Picture in 1938, how many actors and audiences were still there? Life is fleeting, but the movie retains the sound and smile of their best time, and retains every touch and happiness that will never fade.
      Whenever I go to see an old movie, I still feel emotion. It is no longer just a movie. It is also like an antique. After going through the vicissitudes of life, it comes to me. The spectators change one after another, but they don’t know. When will the curtain call....

      I didn't intend to take such a heavy hand on Stewart's black and white film, but the flaws are already flaws that cannot be ignored, and they are not well received. The characters are abrupt and well behaved, and the love scene has no root and no source and is purely set up for conflict. The double standard is obvious: talking about the woman's family is just a halo of smog and light wealth, as if everyone doesn't realize that they are ants climbing an elephant and putting on a golden mountain,...

    Evaluation action

    "You Can't Take It with You" not only praises optimism as the spiritual pillar of the United States, but also reveals a deeper theme: mutual respect, mutual support, and appreciation between people are true warmth. Films adapted from stage plays in the past have more or less inherited the form of stage plays, and they are basically inseparable from the stage's "three-in-one" principle. Compared with previous films, the scene scheduling...
