Watch this movie for the second time

I turned out this old film again, "Kill Bill". This movie is really a romance. When time goes by, those stunts and gimmicks are already out of date. The thing that never fades is love; this is like "A Westward Journey".
Quentin, this wretched bastard, hidden under the wretchedness is a pretty heart. Quentin must love beauty more than other directors. Look, this is simply an anthem of feminism. A simple blonde stunner who became a killer for a man and retired for a child. A man’s bullet penetrated her skull and couldn’t kill her. She was madly vengeful and unstoppable. Even if she was buried alive, she could get out. Not only did she kill the man in the end, He also recovered the child who thought he was dead. What a pity for Xiangxiyu's movie. This reminds me of Hitchcock, who also prefers blonde beauties. In his movies, the blonde beauties have horrified eyes, dripping with blood. They both have the same taste.
I have to say that Quentin's film talent is amazing. Several scenes that impressed me. The first is the cartoon about Liu Yuling's bereavement in her childhood, which shows the wonderful features of Japanese comics to the fullest, and it looks as if I have returned to my elementary school days. The second is the long eyebrows. The lens application and art work are simply a tribute to Hong Kong-style martial arts films in the 1970s, and they are very distinctive. The third is music. The music at the beginning of the first part can win first and draw the audience into the atmosphere of the film from the beginning. The music interspersed in the two parts is also good. The only shortcoming is the background music of the scene of Li Lingyu’s Snowfall. It seems to be Mexican style, if it is Japanese style, it would be perfect. The fourth is the lines, Bill's lines are particularly wonderful, no less than a feature film dominated by characterization.
This is not a perfect movie. Uma Thurman's performance has been greatly improved in the second part, but it is still slightly weak. Many details are also difficult to be perfect, such as the Japanese martial arts scene with 88 people, which was not very well filmed. But for two commercial films with such a huge amount of information, they are already very good. In fact, a large part of this imperfection is also relative to the later "Shameless Bastard", which is full of details.

  • Elle Driver: [into a phone] Bill?

    Budd: [into a phone] Wrong brother, you hateful bitch.

    Elle Driver: Budd?

    Budd: Bingo!

    Elle Driver: And to what do I owe this dubious pleasure?

    Budd: I just caught me a cowgirl that ain't never been caught.

    Elle Driver: Did you kill her?

    Budd: Well, not yet I ain't. I shot her full of rock salt. She's so gentle right now, I could perform her coup-de-grace with a rock. Anyhoo, guess what I'm holding in my hand right now.

    Elle Driver: What?

    Budd: A brand spankin' new Hattori Hanzo sword. And I'm here to tell you, Elle... that's what I call sharp.

    Elle Driver: How much?

    Budd: Well, that's hard to say, being that it's priceless and all.

    Elle Driver: What's the terms?

    Budd: Get your bony ass down here in the morning, with a million dollars in folding cash, and I'll give you the greatest sword ever made by man. How do you like the sound of that?

    Elle Driver: Sounds like we got a deal. One condition.

    Budd: What?

    Elle Driver: She must suffer to her last breath.

    Budd: Well, that little darlin', I can pretty much damn well guarantee.

    Elle Driver: Then I'll see you in the morning... millionaire.
