If I had watched this film before translating Jack Smith, I would have thought it was very ordinary, just an ordinary Hollywood film of the 1930s, but what Jack Smith saw was different from what I saw. He admired this director because this director The storyline can be sacrificed to achieve the beauty of a woman. In his films, women are jewels, shining with the charm of other people. The whole film is used to show the beauty of women. The price is very high. In that era, it was true It's a very different approach.

There is really no universal standard for whether a film is good or bad. A film that we think is "bad" may contain extraordinary power, just like this "unremarkable" director, which directly gave birth to greatness. underground movie.

So I often say, "What I like is good, and what I don't like is bad." I'm not denying other people's standards and appearing to be different, I'm just affirming my own standards. It is a real audience with its own aesthetic orientation and value standards.

Shanghai Express quotes

  • Sam Salt: I can't make head or tail out of you, Mr. Chang. Are you Chinese or are you white, or what are ya?

    Mr. Henry Chang: My mother was Chinese. My father was white.

    Sam Salt: You look more like a white man to me.

    Mr. Henry Chang: I'm not proud of my white blood.

    Sam Salt: Oh you're not, are ya?

    Mr. Henry Chang: No, I'm not.

    Sam Salt: Rather be a Chinaman, huh?

    Mr. Henry Chang: Yes.

    Sam Salt: What future is there being a Chinaman? You're born, eat your way through a handful of rice, and you die. What a country! Let's have a drink.

  • Shanghai Lily: Do you want to be alone, Doctor?

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: No, it's quite all right. I was just going to turn in, anyway.

    Shanghai Lily: Don't let me detain you. I thought it was quite early. What time is it?

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: Nine-thirty.

    Shanghai Lily: You still have the watch I gave you, Donald.

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: I was afraid you'd notice it.

    Shanghai Lily: I had long hair then.

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: I remember quite well.

    Shanghai Lily: Do you expect to stay in Shanghai a while?

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: I think so.

    Shanghai Lily: Then we ought to see a lot of each other.

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: Perhaps.

    Shanghai Lily: What have you been doing, Donald, since I saw you last?

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: Nothing much. Mostly service routine. Couple of years in India after our smashup. Then I went back to England for a while. Then I was assigned to a scientific expedition in Manchuria.

    Shanghai Lily: Sounds as if you had been rather lonesome, Doc.

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: I can't say I was very lonesome. It was an active life, full of interest and excitement.

    Shanghai Lily: I suppose you mean women.

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: It was difficult to find someone to take your place.

    Shanghai Lily: Did you try very hard?

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: Not particularly. I didn't want to be hurt again.

    Shanghai Lily: Always a bit selfish, Doc, thinking of your own hurt.

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: I can't accept your reproach. I was the only one hurt.

    Shanghai Lily: You left me without a word, purely because I indulged in a women's trick to make you jealous. I wanted to be certain that you loved me. Instead, I lost you. I suffered quite a bit, and I probably deserved it.

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: I was a fool to let you go out of my life.

    [They kiss]

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: I wish you could tell me there'd been no other men.

    Shanghai Lily: I wish I could, Doc, but five years in China is a long time.

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: I wish I had 'em back.

    Shanghai Lily: What would you have done with them? There's a scheme of things. Sooner or later, we would've parted anyway. And we might never have met again.

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: We wouldn't have parted, Madeline. We'd have gone back to England, married, and been very happy. There are a lot of things I wouldn't have done if I had those five years to live over again.

    Shanghai Lily: There's only one thing I wouldn't have done, Doc.

    Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: What, for instance?

    Shanghai Lily: I wouldn't have bobbed my hair. Good night, Donald.
