nothing to do with coffee

The story is set in the forties during the heyday of Hollywood. The protagonist leaves his hometown to go to Hollywood's uncle to make a living, and falls in love with his uncle's female secretary. A love triangle between the protagonist, female secretary, and uncle unfolds. Whether to marry an uncle who is 25 years older than her, or marry a 25-year-old protagonist, the female secretary is in trouble. As a result, he married his uncle, but the love between the protagonist and the protagonist continued, and they often missed each other.

In fact, everyone has a wonderful love story. There is always a beauty that you like can't get it, or you get it, you are afraid of losing it, or you have to make up your mind repeatedly between several target objects, or you are rushing up for a while, your mind is dazed, and you are willing to sacrifice everything for true love and do something. silly thing. The day before yesterday, I heard a real story. We, a college graduate, fell in love with a divorced woman in Juxian County. We drove over there by long-distance bus and called to ask the woman to come out. If the woman didn't come, we said on the phone, "If you don't come. When I get out, I jump into the river and commit suicide." The woman thought he was joking, so she didn't go. This guy actually jumped into the river and committed suicide! Just finished the funeral. As a past person, I can only laugh "hehe" while criticizing and sighing. Life has to go on. All the vigorous and seemingly vigorous love stories disappeared in the blink of an eye in the rolling torrent of life.

The love in this film can't even be described with the words "vigorous". The strong love under the faint appearance is not like coffee. It is a cup of tea with an endless aftertaste. Exquisite scenes, sophisticated photography, sophisticated lighting, superb acting, humorous and subtle dialogue, and sparkling wisdom.

Allen's films are always full of humorous and delicate yuppie-style dialogues. After reading the information, I found out that Allen used to make a living as a talk show actor who told jokes in bars after dropping out of school. No wonder the level is so high. It's just that those of us who are not in English who watch subtitled movies are very tired from watching the movie, and there are so many punch lines that we don't have time to take care of the picture.

Only by watching movies can you gain knowledge, and then you will know that Judaism does not believe in an afterlife. Jews run Hollywood, and it's mentioned in the film.

Allen's handling of the gang is beautiful, violently humorous, and has a neutral flavor.

This film has nothing to do with coffee, but is full of literary and artistic style with a petty bourgeoisie, which is worth a closer look.

In the film, the male protagonist recruits prostitutes very beautifully, and can expand a small story.

    I like the setting of the first half, the uncle ignores the nephew's love, and it is not until they fall in love with the same woman that they begin to communicate. On top of that, there's Woody's cinephile love for 1930s Hollywood.

    Better than the previous two years of movies. People have to choose, not to choose is also a choice. Choice brings regrets, and regrets will create a commotion factor, and you are not as refined as you thought at first, nostalgia is a way of remembering the past in the vulgar. A little melancholy, a little fun, and a sketch with a nostalgic atmosphere. JE is good, BL has no play, KS has a clear sense of discord, she is too modern and doesn't have a sense of the 1930s. By the way, the "Candy" Anna Camp that the male protagonist just came to LA to find is quite interesting.

    Rose Dorfman: We are all afraid of dying, Marty! But we don't give up the religion we are born into.

    Marty Dorfman: I'm not afraid to die.

    Rose Dorfman: You're too stupid to appreciate the implications.

    Marty Dorfman: I didn't say I like the idea. And I will resist death with everything I have. But when the Angel of Death comes to cut me down, I'll go. I'll protest. I'll curse. You hear me? I will go under protest.

    Rose Dorfman: Protest to who? What the hell are you gonna do? Write a letter to the Times?

    Marty Dorfman: I will protest in silence.
