The film "84 Charing Cross Street", which was filmed in 1987 and released on 2.13, relies on real life to depict the grand occasion of British second-hand bookstores in 1949. The film's script is based on the novel of the same name, which began in the 1970s and made the real-life 84 Charing Street Cross Street famous all over the world. Instead of the hypocritical movie of Tang Wei and Uncle.

Shuyuan, once had a friend who loves to look for ancient books, and even went to collect old books (after careful screening, of course) for research, collection, research and reference. There is also a friend. The books at home are not only piled up like mountains, but the rooms on several floors are filled with bookshelves, which are similar to a small library. The level of obsession is beyond what my average person can understand.

In the movie, the heroine and her best friend once had a conversation. The content is roughly as follows: the heroine is excited because of a rare ancient book found in a second-hand bookstore, and thinks that this book should be kept in the British Museum; and her friend is secretive He smiled and said, if I were that book, I would rather stay with you. It is conceivable that people who know books and books have a sense of "meeting with gold and jade". At that time, second-hand bookstores had many channels to search for books, providing real "private customization" services for readers. This shows the prosperity of the second-hand book market at that time. Back then, in the UK, there were more than 3,000 second-hand bookstores run by independent individuals in the golden age.

In addition to the historical background explained above, there are some other historical metaphors to share. Britain experienced rationing quotas in the post-World War II forties and relied on US aid to restore the economy. The abundant supplies of American female writers just provide the clerks of second-hand stores in London with the opportunity to "go overseas", and it is also a microcosm of the historical background. The Queen's super standby time is also reflected in the movie: The Queen's Crown Boarding Ceremony. In the early 1950s, the United Kingdom was waiting for a lot of waste, ending the era of supply quotas, completing the industrial revolution, and the society entered a stage of rapid development. Wudu is also named after that. There is a theory in phenomenal economics that the length of the skirt reflects the prosperity of the social economy, and the shorter the skirt, the more prosperous the economy is. In the movie Frank sits in the park and a beautiful woman walks by in a miniskirt. The female writer also moved into a high-rise apartment from a bungalow. At that time, she bought an off-the-plan apartment, and the Yin Shimao grain loan started to buy a house. Filmed in the 1980s, the film describes the 1950s. It has been nearly 70 years, and it will be a century in the blink of an eye. The film and television works have such charm - a strong imprint of the times.

companion. Soul mate & couple are like coffee and mate, shampoo and conditioner, foundation and foundation, and they should all be there at the same time. As an independent individual with a mature personality, no matter whether it is a man or a woman, there should not be only one person of the opposite sex around him, and it should be limited to his own couple. The people who get along with each other every day need to take responsibility and give tolerance, but he/she may have no idea of ​​his temperament and hobbies. Many people will regret that it is a pity not to be able to be with someone who understands you and can talk to. Since it is true love, it should fit in all aspects, but the probability of meeting a suitable person in time is very small. It is even more difficult to meet people who can agree in every aspect.

Charles Cross Street gave a good interpretation. Although the male clerk Frank and the female writer never met, and they never met until the death of the male protagonist, it did not affect the love between the two who became attached to the book, and they did not get overwhelmed by it. Affect other people's families, because the degree of agreement between the two of them is only in books, and they are in peace with each other. Similarly, when the male protagonist passed away, Frank's wife expressed her long-standing envy in a letter to the female writer, because she and her husband had never communicated so deeply. Every time it was her husband who taught her the meaning of the book. . But their marriage is still safe and sound. Although Frank was so excited to look forward to the heroine's visit to the second-hand bookstore, and he almost made a fool of himself because of the visit of a female customer with a similar temperament, he was suspected of recognizing a female writer, but all this did not affect the family life.

In any era, books are always undervalued. Even the most precious old book is 6.89 US dollars, and the cost of filling the heroine's teeth was as high as 2,000 US dollars at that time, and her manuscript fee was about 200 US dollars per book. But in any case, the spiritual power given by books is unparalleled!
