have a little faith in people

The movie Xu Mo went to watch together on weekends leisurely, the professor's taste is really good. Woody Allen is a real master, real, detailed life scenes, revealing at a stroke. People in big cities fill empty, superficial lives with theory and jargon, literature and art, creating trouble within reach to escape long-term planning. Scum and unconscious, cover up contradictions and conflicts with an artistic, saintly mentality ("the love paradox of fraternity and single-mindedness, promiscuity and innocence, optimism and sadness"), one day is one day, six months is too long . However, these intellectuals cannot simply be characterized by ugliness and hypocrisy. The complexity of human nature is projected on each of us. The last sentence is thought-provoking, "Not everyone has no principles, you have to have some confidence in people", the male protagonist finally closed his chattering mouth, his complex expression, and the advanced performance is really worth savoring, this acting really amazes me. Later, I found out that the male protagonist is the director himself. Sure enough, the director is one of them. I know what I want to express best, so I acted so well. Black and white old movies are so charming. In addition, I will add a star for my own selfishness. The English names of 17-year-old Lolita and mine actually coincide. I really like such a cute and understandable girl. I saw her being so infatuated before, I was afraid she was a fool, but after a week, I let it go, it was really relieved, and the final finishing touch came to an abrupt end, a perfect ending. The little girl was actually Hemingway's granddaughter. She was surprised and added a real footnote to the full mouth of literature and art in the film.

Manhattan quotes

  • Yale: You know we have to stop seeing each other, don't you.

    Mary Wilke: Oh, yeah. Right. Right. I understand. I could tell by the sound of your voice on the phone. Very authoritative, y'know. Like the pope, or the computer in 2001.

  • Isaac Davis: You know what you are? You're God's answer to Job, y'know? You would have ended all argument between them. I mean, He would have pointed to you and said, y'know, "I do a lot of terrible things, but I can still make one of these." You know? And then Job would have said, "Eh. Yeah, well, you win."
