Thanks to the public elective course, I had the opportunity to come into contact with this interesting and simple, but meaningful movie. Black and white movies are so far away that I sometimes get prejudiced and think it's corny stuff. However, the best works are often not limited to technology, and they have become more brilliant after brushing and polishing over time. Roman Holiday City Lights Great Dictator Rashomon... These are great examples. So don't underestimate black and white films. The relaxed and harmonious tone often erases the solemnity of black and white films. Roman Holiday and many of Chaplin's works are good examples. And sometimes black and white gravitas is often what the film needs (Rashomon Schindler's List). As soon as the film opens, a wild young lady is portrayed with a three-pointer. (The eyebrows are very characteristic) Then the picture turns to a down-and-out reporter who has been fired on the phone. (Like "Roman Holiday") The two met in the car bound for New York. Although there were some stumblings at the beginning, this may be due to Hua En's downfall! Then a very interesting journey began... Huaen is a serious, witty and humorous man, and Ellie is a funny, outgoing, lovely and simple woman. Ellie is a sincere person. On the straw, he's complaining about Hwa-eun while saying that he can go and leave her alone. However, when she found that he was gone, she panicked immediately, and when he appeared, she immediately fell into his arms. Then she declined the invitation to eat radishes together, because fear made her lose her appetite. The stop section is also quite interesting... On the night they were about to part, they were just chatting as usual, but Ellie walked over to his bed and cried, saying that she had fallen in love with him. She couldn't lose such a fun and dependable man as him. He obviously didn't react, because he had no feelings for her before, just treated her simply and rudely. By the time he reacted and made a decision, she was already asleep, so he decided to surprise her, but it backfired. (The confession and the flashing of tears before that made me very surprised at the mystery of love, as well as women's emotions and the miraculous effect of tears.) Then we ushered in the climax and ending of the film. A nerve-wracking climax, and a happy comedic ending. The United States had just gone through the Great Depression at the time, and the film's soothing effect was very good, and of course its symbolism was worth savoring. Is this romance the icing on the cake of comedy, or the sublimation of comedy? I am more inclined to sublime Huaen's attitude towards Ellie, which is cold yet humorous and contemptuous without losing sincerity. Very interesting attitude. Ellie's father is also flesh and blood. He is a father who thinks he has a unique eye but is a bit doting on his daughter.
