The Gentleman Marty (1955)—The 28th Oscar Best Picture

Film tells the story of Marty, a young man who has married his younger brothers and sisters, but he is still alone, and the older generations around him urged him to get married. Finally, in a dance party, he met his favorite teacher Clara. Marty, who had always felt that she was fat and ugly, was suddenly full of confidence, and the flame of love ignited these two ordinary lives. But the people around Marty didn't like Clara, he was very distressed. At the end of the film, Marty suddenly awakened and was no longer affected by the disturbances from the outside world. He rushed to the phone booth and bravely faced his inner feelings. The movie stopped abruptly.
Everyone's values ​​and aesthetics are different, and their views on the same thing are also different. When the opinions of others are contrary to yours, will you stick to yourself or make changes? Support and disagreement often coexist. The Italian writer Dante’s representative long poem "The Divine Comedy" also has such a sentence: "Go your own way; let others talk!" That is what we often hear: "Go your own way, let others talk!" Others' pertinent suggestions need to be listened to, but if you are too focused on the unexpected world and care about the ideas of others, it is difficult to live the way you want.
The movie is very ordinary, I don’t know why I won the Oscar and the Palme d’Or at Cannes.
