Love the black and white pictures of that era!

The story takes place in a small grocery store on a street corner. James Stewart and Margaret Sullivan both work as shop assistants. They lead an ordinary and regular life every day. The greatest joy of life for the two of them is to confide in their pen pals. Heartfelt. After they showed their love to their pen pals, they realized that the person they liked was the grocery colleague they met every day.

This is a lighthearted movie, the joys, anger, sorrows and joys of the little people-the boss who suspects his wife is affair with his clerk, faces each other every day but does not know that each other is a colleague who makes friends with pen pals and wants to be a teller... the attractive part of the film It's on those little details that flash with the interest of life everywhere.

The store manager James Siu-yu and the new female subordinate Margaret Margaret. Su Liyun turned against each other, but destiny was to make people. The two did not know that each other was a pen pal who admired each other. The moment Shi Zhaoyu saw through the true face of Lu Shan, he became an unemployed man and did not dare to come forward to recognize each other.

    Obviously it is a bridge, but Lubitsch can create ambiguous and uncertain emotions, which is really beautiful. In addition, his ability to fool the time is also quite amazing.

    A model for the use of dramatic irony. Suitable for Christmas viewing. ★★★★★
