As soon as the Soviet female cadre played by Garbo appeared on the stage, she confessed everything she had seen in Paris, a decadent bourgeois paradise. This unsmiling, disdainful, and scornful proletarian cadre of the capitalist world is all about the great work of liberating all mankind and contributing to the establishment of the great red dynasty. Such a very representative but also very prejudiced character identity and character shaping is quite common in Hollywood comedies. It can be regarded as a routine operation to create conflict and sense of joy. The dramatic conflict mainly comes from Cultural aspects. The change in the attitude of the heroine came from the accidental fall of the romantic hero who confessed to her and kept telling jokes in the cafe. This accidental episode made everyone in the cafe roar with laughter, and also made the serious and old-fashioned heroine laugh (although the smile at this time is not good, it is better for Garbo not to laugh... After that, the two fell in love. The heroine who had always rejected the capitalist world also accepted and even fell in love with the feasting and colorful world of Paris, and even bought the ugly hat that she had complained about. As a Soviet female cadre, fell in love with a romantic and exquisite American man in Paris. This man was still a theoretical enemy of work (and of course an ideological enemy), and then the woman fell completely into this wonderful atmosphere and almost forgot. Own mission and identity. This kind of plot development has to remind me of Khrushchev’s eyes-opening and exciting past when he visited the United States like a pupil who walked into Disneyland... But this film is 39 years old. Khrushchev’s visit to the United States was His mother’s 59 years, Liu Bieqian had already seen everything... Khrushchev visited the United States for two weeks, and that visit was more like a vacation... Of course, when he returned After the Soviet Union, the capitalist evil forces represented by the United States are still ugly....... (Removed) This film has clear political intentions for most of the time, until the female protagonist who was finally dispatched back to the country remains the same. He was obsessed with the male protagonist in Paris and his life in Paris. In the end, the male protagonist rushed to the Soviet Union not far away, and the lovers eventually became married. This happy ending dispelled ideological antagonisms and class contradictions, and pointed to the love of the world and the community of destiny. Liu Bieqian should win the Nobel Peace Prize.
