An absolute blockbuster, in the 1937 era
Judging from the only remaining stills, the starring, the art, the set, and the special effects of that era, such as avalanches, are definitely ahead of the time.
Although due to the lack of film and the shortcomings of the recording technology at the time, it is no longer possible to reproduce the artistic conception of Capra when he was filming, but when the film is near the end, Kang Wei breaks through the snowy mountain alone, which still has great shock and power. Artistic appeal.
Even with the current director, actor, and film technology, it would be difficult to surpass Capra's effect back then.
Imagine that if this overhead business card is to be remade, who is the best candidate for the director?
I personally think that it is not Spielberg, not Cameron, but it is Quentin, the ghost who does not play the cards according to common sense, that can make new ideas.
