Interested in film production lately. When it comes to the film industry and producers, Selznick is a name that cannot be avoided. Gold producer, legendary producer, the most powerful producer... A "Gone with the Wind" is enough to make Selznick famous in film history. It is said that Selznick used a total of 18 screenwriters for the film before and after, and during the filming process, he changed the guide tube three times, and the trick of auditioning the heroine was frequently imitated by future generations.
"Gone with the Wind" I watched when I was in middle school, but I haven't rewatched it since. At that time, my history teacher bought a series of VCDs of old Hollywood movies, such as "Blue Bridge" and "The Sound of Music". He was a bachelor at the time, and on weekends I would go to his room and watch these old Hollywood movies. I have watched about ten old Hollywood movies, and I think "Gone with the Wind" is the best one. After at least 3 hours, I didn't feel tired at all. As for the benefits of this film, I really have no idea.
"Blood in the Sun" is about love, and the "Western" is just a cloak for it. After all, it is Selznick's handwriting, the film looks very atmospheric, especially the scene with the galloping horses, which can be described as magnificent. At first I thought that as the most powerful producer in Hollywood, Selznick was a money-burning expert, and his films were made by burning money. After watching the film, I realized that the so-called "most powerful" is not so simple. The love in "Blood in the Sun" is very delicate and moving, its tragic enough to earn the tears of every female audience, and my male audience is also "moved" by it.
In fact, "Gone with the Wind" is also a great romance film. Selznick was probably the greatest producer of romance films in Hollywood's golden age.
