Purple roses grow in real soil

This is a movie in which fantasy and reality are intertwined. Between Tom and Jill, the heroine chooses Jill rather than reality. She yearns for the beautiful love in fantasy, but she always succumbs to it soberly. Reality. At the end of the film, Cecilia returns to her original reality, and the tragedy is not that she chose the wrong person, but that no matter how she chooses, it is a tragedy. I think some details of the film are handled very well, and the ending has multiple foreshadowing. For example, Jill's original purpose was to bring Tom back to the screen, etc. Jill may have feelings for her, but it is far less than his own career. Shot - Jill's wistful expression on the departing plane makes the viewer ponder. We may all yearn for the illusory beauty, but please don't indulge in it and face the reality bravely.

The Purple Rose of Cairo quotes

  • Cecilia's Sister: The one that I liked is "Okay, America!"

    Cecilia: Oh, yeah! I saw that twice. That was great! When she threatens to kill Lew Ayers.

    Cecilia's Sister: I love Lew Ayers looks! Do you think he's married?

    Cecilia: What do you mean married? Are you crazy? Yes, he's married to Ginger Rogers! God! They got married on a boat off the island of Catalina. They live in Beverly Hills and sometimes holiday in Spain. He used to be married to Lola Lane, but, Ginger's better for him. She's so lovely.

  • Cecilia: Ginger used to be married to Jack Culpepper, who I think took out Ruth Chatterton before she married George Brent.
