When it comes to storytelling, few can compare to Billy Wilder

Few people can compare to Billy Wilder when it comes to storytelling, or he wouldn't be one of my three favorite directors. The suspenseful design has been maintained until the end, and the lines are all super good. The male protagonist's ankle is the most powerful. Not only is the sixth sense of wisdom scary, but the lines are also full of punchlines. caught me. The details of the plot are also worth pondering in many places, and there are also embarrassing things at the end, such as not firing a second shot, preventing my daughter's friend from entering the door, and so on. However, the ending is a little disappointing, and I still don't like this kind of positive ending.

Classic noir film, but a little worse. The characteristic of film noir is that there is no trace of coming and going, and it only looks at the present. The drama of the femme fatale is really cool. The soundtrack is a little weak, and it's hard for Billy to tell such a simple story to hold the audience. The composition of the scene with the three people at the door is excellent and the tension is outstanding.

Billy Wilder's first noir film, Raymond Chandler's first screenwriting, the atmosphere and shots are perfect, but the plot arrangement is still a little bit poor, and it is called "the most typical noir film" It feels a bit overrated. Still, in the more than 20 years before "Bonnie and Clyde," Neff and Phyllis were indeed Hollywood's most famous murderers.

Walter Neff: Suddenly it came over me that everything would go wrong. It sounds crazy, Keyes, but it's true, so help me. I couldn't hear my own footsteps. It was the walk of a dead man.
