If everyone says yes, I have to find out what is bad.
The reason why I am for me is to discover the good or bad that no one else has discovered, and I will never be the mainstream.
Although the main creators of this film almost all denied its value, believing that it was a failed film. Of course, it's really not as good as "The Great Dictator" and "City Light". However, I still think that both its story structure and comic effects are of the master's level. Since the "Cinema Manual" can regard every Eastwood movie as a classic, then I have no reason not to ask more People introduced a movie by Chaplin, Sofia Loland. Marlon Brando's so-called Dacus movie.
A typical adventure love story takes place in two rooms, interspersed with a series of comedy plots. I think the actors’ performances are successful, especially Roland, which truly embodies the naturalness and optimism of Italians. She is very good. comedian. Brando's acting skills, just as he himself showed, did his best to the scripts that were not very satisfactory, and his talent needed a little bit to pass. In particular, it is Chaplin’s son Sini who plays Brando’s assistant. Like all the children of great people, he lives in the shadow of his father. Although talent is still insignificant under that huge figure, I always feel that he is somewhat depressed and restrained.
The film is inspired by Chaplin’s trip in Shanghai. It still shows the director’s own style. The drama is strong and there is no lack of sentimental endings. At least I think it is a romantic comedy and it is an underrated one. It’s a good movie, I don’t know who else can let me see such a movie mixed with absurdity and sadness, romance and humor, I can’t find it.
Many years ago, I said in my book what a terrible and failed movie this is. The strange thing is that I love this terrible movie and I am willing to watch it again and again because I like it.
With Chaplin, I can always feel his philosophical interpretation of life and the world, his warm and sad smile, because this is his last movie, and he is still saving a girl in trouble, just like The eternal knight's fairy tale in his heart is just this compassionate heart. I also want to write down my feelings for the master I admire.
