Since a decision last year, he has become an exceptionally sensitive person. While living a happy life, many things that I didn't take seriously in the past began to touch me deeply, about love, life, meaning, fairness... It

's hard to believe that "Philadelphia Story" is a movie from 25 years ago. Until today, AIDS is no longer an "incurable disease", and the suppression, discrimination, stigma and ban on LGBT people and minorities are still spreading in the land under their feet. It turns out that we are not even qualified to compare with the fairness, legality and tolerance of the US imperialists 25 years ago.

In addition to the subject matter itself, the film also reflects a lot of human beauty. The male protagonist's tenacious struggle on the road of fairness, the warmth and infinite support of the family, the dignified farewell before his death, and so on.

Even though the tone of the film is heavy and tense, I found several cute points. Including the great impact of the male protagonist listening to the opera (good taste) on the lawyer's aesthetics (and willpower) (going home and chatting with his wife next door); as well as the lawyer's black baby and the dolls we are familiar with. The shades are very different.

finally.
We once made a movie like Farewell My Concubine, although it ended tragically; but after many years, we can't even make such a tragedy.

Philadelphia quotes

  • Belinda Conine: [Defense opening statement] fact: Andrew Beckett's performance on the job varied from competent to good, to often times mediocre, to sometimes flagrantly incompetent fact: he claims he's the victim of lies and deceit, fact: it was Andrew Beckett who lied, going through lengths to conceal his disease from his employers, fact: Andrew Beckett was successful in his duplicity, the partners at Wyatt Wheeler did not fire Andrew Beckett because he had AIDS fact: Andrew Beckett is dying fact: Andrew Beckett is angry because his lifestyle, his reckless behavior has cut short his life and in his anger, in his rage he is lashing out and he wants someone to pay

  • Joe Miller: [Plaintiff opening statement] ladies and gentlemen of the jury: forget everything you've seen on television and in the movies. There's not going to be any last minute surprise witnesses, nobody's going to break down on the stand with a tearful confession, you're going to be presented with simple facts. Andrew Beckett was fired and you'll two explanations on why he was fired, ours and theirs it's up to you to sit through layer upon layer of truth until you determine for yourself which version sounds the most true. There's certain points I must prove to you: point number one: Andrew Beckett was... is a brilliant lawyer, a great lawyer, point number two: my client afflicted with a disabling disease made the understandable, the personal, and the legal choice to keep the fact of his illness to himself point number three: his employers discovered his illness and ladies and gentlemen the illness I'm referring to is AIDS point number four: they panicked and in their panic they did what most would do which is just get "it" and everybody who has "it" as far as away as possible, the behavior of my client's employers seem reasonable to you, it does to me, after all AIDS is a deadly incurable disease but no matter how you come to judge Charles Wheeler and his partners in ethical and moral and inhuman terms, the fact of the matter is when they fired Andrew Beckett because he has AIDS they broke the law.
