Being sick is a good time to watch boring movies

I caught a cold today and didn’t want to do anything, so I took the opportunity to watch Out of Africa, which I had saved for a long time.

This film is indeed an imitation of Gone with the Wind, but it is obviously more successful than Australia's troubled times. It seems that making a movie is different from solving a math problem, as long as you apply the same formula to get the same result. In my opinion, the success of these two films is that they both reveal the truth that men are unreliable, and finally highlight the strength of the heroine; while the beauty in "Australia" relies on Wolverine, it feels like a sigh of relief.

In addition, these two films also tell us that when you feel that you are already unlucky, as long as you believe that more unfortunate things will happen, you will have the confidence to keep going.

    Why did Aunt Mei look so cute when she was young... This kind of plot can also drag out an epic hero, which is also a skill... But I really don't have the energy to watch it for 160 minutes.

    The movie is actually a little smaller than the novel, and the beautiful scenery complements it. In the novel, the romantic perspective that doesn't care is deeply hidden. The magnificence and unreliability of this perspective are all emotional. Hey, the beauty of human nature, the beauty of the world, the limitations of human nature, and the helplessness of life... Karen Brixen, who is sufficient for canonization, should be more interesting than novels. (Seeing crying, but my crying point should not be designed by the director but from the original novel)

Out of Africa quotes

  • Karen Blixen: [Denys lands his two-seater aircraft, and Karen runs to greet him] Where did you get it?

    Denys: Mombasa. Get in!

    Karen Blixen: [as they take off] When did you learn to fly?

    Denys: Yesterday!

  • Karen Blixen: "The time you won your town the race, we chaired you through the marketplace; man and boy stood cheering by, as home we brought you shoulder-high. Smart lad, to slip betimes away from fields where glory does not stay. Early though the laurel grows, It withers quicker than a rose. Now you will not swell the rout of lads that wore their honors out. Runners whom renown outran, and the name died 'fore the man. And round that early-laureled head will flock to gaze the strengthless dead and find unwithered on its curls a garland briefer than a girl's."
