When watching "Shawshank's Redemption", Andy always shakes the soil he digs every day on the playground while the wind is blowing. I think this detail is very good~ When watching "Prison Break", Mi Shuai designed a fake escape. Calculating the speed at which the prison guards gather and search, I think this idea is simply too clever~

I only now know that it turns out that it was left over from the game in "The Great Phantom"! Worthy of being the originator of prison escape movies!

As a movie released in 1937, all the plots can accurately poke the heart, dense laughter, military dignity, rivals’ sympathy, the cruelty of war, the chaotic love of the world, and even the bromance ~

classic movie that complements the brain. It will become more classic due to the passage of time. This kind of movie will earn one by watching one movie on the big screen~

    "What is the prison for? It's for escape!" This is a story about the escape of the French prisoners of the First World War on the eve of World War I. When the escape was successful, they escaped to live in the homes of German civilian women, which suddenly became high again. Tonal, symbolizing war and peace. The success of the film is not only the story itself, but also the groundbreaking mise-en-scene, the use of action shots, and the use of voiceovers. At the same time, it also opened a precedent for prison break movies.

    A classic anti-war film by Jean Renoir, but in the form of a prisoner of war escape. The film's portrayal of the characters is particularly meticulous. The title suggests that ideals such as freedom, equality, and fraternity are all phantoms. The film later drew polarized reviews. In addition to advocating anti-war ideas and advocating freedom and peace, the film also has ambiguous ambivalence and bewildered attitudes towards different classes and cultural strata.

La Grande Illusion quotes

  • Lieutenant Maréchal: It's not a very common disease in high society. Eh, Boeldieu?

    Capt. de Boeldieu: Yes, but it's a vanishing privilege. Like so much else, it's become popularized. Cancer and gout are not working-class diseases, but they will be, believe me.

    Lieutenant Rosenthal: How about intellectuals?

    Le lieutenant Demolder: In our case, tuberculosis.

    Capt. de Boeldieu: Here's Mr. Pindar.

    Lieutenant Maréchal: And the middle-class?

    Lieutenant Rosenthal: Liver ulcers, they eat too much. We'd each die of our own class aliment, if war didn't make all germs equal.

  • Capt. von Rauffenstein: Give me your word that there is nothing in here against regulations.

    Capt. de Boeldieu: You have my word. But why mine rather than the others?

    Capt. von Rauffenstein: The word of a Rosenthal? Or a Maréchal?

    Capt. de Boeldieu: Their word is as good as ours.

    Capt. von Rauffenstein: Perhaps.
