1. When I was watching the watch, the boss said I would buy it back for $60 before Christmas, but Tony came back from a business trip just in time for Christmas Eve.

He asked relatives to redeem the watch in advance. Although relatives asked him 15 dollars more.

2. Everyone thinks that black people love to eat fried chicken, but Tang has never eaten it. Later, when I was invited by the host, although he was very polite, the host specially prepared fried chicken for Tang...It was also very stereotype...So it is normal for a toilet incident to happen.

3. Talk about the flickering words during divorce, and the orchid finger when eating fried chicken... Then it turned out that Tang was gay...

4. The pebble game that other black people invited Tang to play in the hotel was what Tony had just played with the waiters. He also said that he would not lose.

5. Tony spit out high-grade white food at the banquet, he really looked more black than Tang...

6. Tony asked Tang in the car if he could play black music. Tang said it sounded complicated. Tang also said that he originally studied classical music, but the record company would not let him play. Then in the black bar, he played Chopin first, everyone applauded frantically, and then he played the pop music he heard on the car with the band.

7. Tang said that a musician had no ambitions. He put whiskey on the piano. How could so and so (it seems very famous) put whiskey on the piano? At last he took the wine from the piano when he played the piano in the bar.

8. There was a breakdown while driving. All the black slaves on the side of the road stopped to watch a white man driving the black man. Later on the road, the two white men looked at them in amazement, and Tony pointed his middle finger directly.

9. When I first set off, other waiters said "Your boss called you", and Tony insisted that "I work for a record company". Later, I opened my mouth naturally just like "my boss".

10. Tony asked Don if he wanted to put on makeup, the injury was obvious. Tang also said that I don't need to be okay. Then go back to the room and apply the concealer...

11. Don was bullied by people in the bar. Tony made a mystery and said that he had a gun. Tang said, "I knew you didn't have a gun." Later, Tony shot and scared away two black people, and Tang said, "I knew you had a gun"...

12. When I met a friend in the south, the friend said that he wanted to introduce Tony to work. Tony said it in Italian, but Tony thought that Tang could not understand it. Then when he left at night, Tang said in Italian that he would be promoted and raised... It turned out that he had always understood it, but it turned out that he was afraid of losing.

13. The first time I was stopped by the police, it was because the town did not allow black people to come and go at night. After being stopped by the police for the second time, both of them were very nervous. Tang still asked "Is there any problem sir?" and the police said, of course, I noticed that your tires were flat. I let my heart down, so warm! It also indicates that he is going home.

14. Tony discriminated against blacks at first, and always talked about the Germans. Later, the southern police said that as an Italian, he was equivalent to half a black.

Anti-discrimination, everyone is equal.

15. During the interview, Tony said that my wife had invited two people of color to come... for a drink... Finally, he invited Tang to have a drink at home.

16. Finally, Tony's wife said thank you for writing these letters for him. Sure enough, my wife knows her husband, and it is impossible for her to become a writer without spelling correctly. In the beginning, the wife drank ice water for the black workers and made sandwiches for Tang. What a nice person!

    The film explores how ethnicity is defined by skin color, class, culture, nationality, etc. in various contexts? The setting of the two protagonists transcends stereotype as an aesthetic representation. Blacks are not working lower-class blacks, but pianists who enter the house; Tony's complexion is white, originally us in us vs them, but because he has the alterity of lower-class people , so his ethnicity was highlighted - Italian. And we look at white people without skin color (and their various discriminatory actions) from the perspective of two protagonists with racial characteristics, who are in a sense racial. Because of the invention of race, it is more to serve the day-to-day operations of more hidden cultural practices (piano, jazz, bars, KFC) and political discourse (the fuse of conflict). This film subverts the norm, extends the issue of raciality to everyone to a certain extent, and also points out the mimesis nature of discriminatory discourse. But the filming is too skillful, and the ending of "What a Wonderful Life" is regrettable. A story that can only happen in the United States once again ends with an American-style multiple ending.

    I like the sentence that Uncle Wei wrote to his wife "you remind of a house a house with beautiful full lights on it where everyone happy inside" "Sometimes you remind of a house a house with beautiful full lights on it where everyone happy inside" The house of laughter" The gentle love letter of a rough man is nothing more than this

Green Book quotes

  • Dr. Don Shirley: Yes, I live in a castle, Tony! Alone. And rich white people pay me to play piano for them because it makes them feel cultured. But as soon as I step off that stage, I go right back to being just another nigger to them. Because that is their true culture. And I suffer that slight alone, because I'm not accepted by my own people 'cause I'm not like them, either. So, if I'm not black enough and if I'm not white enough and if I'm not man enough, then tell me, Tony, what am I?

  • Tony Lip: [Writing a letter to his wife] Dear Dolores, how are you? I am fine. I'm eating real good. Hamburgers mostly. So don't worry about me not eating good. I saw Dr. Shirley play the piano tonight. He don't play like a colored guy. He plays like Liberace, but better. He's like a genius, I think. When I look at him in the rear-view mirror, I can tell he's always thinking about stuff in his head. I guess that's what geniuses do. But it don't look fun to be that smart. I miss you very, very much.
