This film is about the introduction of director Fellini and actor Mastroianni in "Very Sin, Very Beautiful" written by author Mao Jian. The first time I tried watching a black-and-white film, the whole film was 174 minutes long, and there were times when I was distracted in the middle of watching the film. Biscuits, oranges, and a few pots of hot tea ushered in the end of the plot. Of course, it's not without intentions, so let's talk about a few plots and questions that shocked me.

There is a very special high-society woman in the play, she asks the male protagonist to have sex with her on a prostitute's bed, why? ; She seduced the male protagonist to confess to her through the wall, but she was kissing me with another man next door, why?

The male protagonist's friend Steiner obviously had a seemingly happy family, but he killed his two biological children and committed suicide. He said, "The most miserable life is better than suffering in an organized society where everything is calculated accurately. A life of protection." , why?

I have unspeakable sympathy for the male protagonist's girlfriend Emma. She has a hypocritical glass heart, is sensitive and suspicious, has no sense of security, and needs more company and care. She longs to really get her boyfriend, she wants to have a family with him, she gives everything, there is only him in the whole world, her love is too full. Seeing her was like seeing a humble side of myself. Let the picture freeze on the despair of this woman.

The actor Marcelo Mastroianni is really charming, and I want to enjoy some of his other works and then have a good chat about him.

The most dazzling and most attractive thing in the film is of course not the girl who looks like an angel in the ending, but another star named Sylvia in the film, who also plays a star role in the film. She is so beautiful! She fiddled with her skirt and danced, she took off her high heels and spun in the crowd, she had a kind and cute kitten on her head, and by the way, her sexy smokey voice... She must represent part of the 1960s beauty of European woman. Her name is Anita Ekberg Anita Ekberg let the picture freeze on this shining woman.

Finally, let's sigh the director of this film, Fredrico Fellini, the costumes, scene design, and atmosphere of the "Sweet Life" film. The beauty of each frame is like an artistic photo. It turns out that black and white movies can be so beautiful! This should be my first good experience and gain from watching a black and white movie.
