I have always wanted to write about Lao Pa and this classic movie, but I haven't been able to write it because the number of times I enjoy it is always too small. No matter Lao Pa's performance or the details of this movie, I chew it over and over after each viewing, and it's still not enough. Today is the 10th time, and with the excitement of not returning, I decided to write something -- it should be the highest tribute to old Pa and classic movies!

AL PACINO's performance in this film is recognized as a classic in film history. There is no need to say too much praise. The belated Oscar winner has already given proof that SCENT OF WOMEN should be radiant because of his dazzling light. is a summative assessment. Let's take a look at some of the performance details:

First of all, the eyes, PACINO plays a blind man, a retired military officer, described with his lines: I have seen the world! However, it is these eyes without light that can always allow us to see his true inner feelings in the performance - being attracted and shocked.
"pussy, the most beautiful word of the world, the passport to the heaven.. ." The facial performance without any physical movements under the lines made me clearly see the infinite tenderness in Frank's heart in his eyes. Women are always the most important in his heart. Although they are naked, they are by no means vulgar. A sophisticated old man does not need to do it. Any disguise to express his own feelings-feelings for women, the beginning of education on the plane is a perfect interpretation of FRANK's longing for women!
A special part of the plot: When frank said that his biggest dream was to be wrapped tightly around his body by the hands and legs of the woman he loved and woke up the next morning still snuggled, his eyes revealed his heart Unlimited desire but mixed with a hint of helplessness, faint and slightly sad, it is too accurate. Frank is a person who is extremely insecure in his heart. His dream is actually the most real modern man complex, but he can't achieve it---even in today's reality, even if it is himself, he will sigh alone in the dark!


(I wanted to finish writing my feelings in one go, but I was entangled by a few best friends and went to the so-called JAZZ, and I will continue

when I come back...) If Lao Pa used his eyes in this movie to show that frank is true to women and true The warmth of the erotic totem, then we must pay close attention to his interpretation of his own life.
"i am in the dark!!!...." When frank tried his best to break free from charlie and committed suicide, his eyes were completely radiating fierce and hysterical light, and the despair after the incomparable struggle in his heart---to himself, For this abandoned world, I want to cry but have no tears, I am decadent and unable to extricate myself. It is the role, the actor, and myself that have been ignored by me. Maybe in the process of melting into the plot, I have completely forgotten where I am— - Indelible performance!
How many times has "who-are!..." been used in the plot, and Ferrari, who is second only to women in life, is running wild in the world of self, no matter what road or corner is in front of him, swaying, enjoying, and infinitely satisfying himself. , It's the eyes that tell me that FRANK's heart can no longer tolerate all the worldly constraints in an instant, no matter who he is! !
"who-are..." FRANK's dark eyes told me when his nephew sneered at his life at Thanksgiving dinner---I know, but I don't care, I regret but I Don't regret it, you are nothing more than that! It is rare to use such a simple line to cover up the disdain on the outside, but the heart is deeply stinged! ! Such a man will only use suicide to express his strength, he will never bow his noble head in front of outsiders, throughout the whole process...
"Now l have come to the crossroads in my life. I always knew what the right path was. Without exception, I knew, but l never took it. You know why? lt was too damn hard..." great speech section This sentence touches my heart the most, because the expression of the eyes has controlled emotions in the process. Life is so difficult, and it is too difficult to walk the road of justice in the thorns of dripping blood, but my heart will never annihilate this last conscience. , Although I have compromised in resistance, I will still illuminate myself at the crossroads. Tears flowed in my heart when I said this!

The parts I mentioned are just a few clips. In many details, Lao Pa speaks with his eyes, and blind people also have eyes. Pacino is performing FRANK like a soul, and aftertaste!


The performance of body language is also an incomparable textbook. I have seen the movements of the old handkerchief many times. You can take a closer look at how FRANK holds the cane every time, trembling and subtle touch, and opening it skillfully fully shows the character. The self-confidence of --- is very real and in place. Of course, there is no need to say more about the TANGO that is regarded as a classic by too many people. Perhaps there is no second person who can replace the performance of PACINO.

Many people will praise the three classics of this movie---Ferrari, Tango, and speech. In fact, there are many lines and plots in the middle that can be recollected and full of philosophy. I very clearly remember that charlie persuaded with a trembling voice. Frank don't commit suicide, the reason is very simple "sometimes you are very attractive, for example, you are very attractive to women when you dance tango...", yes, in the mouth of a little kid in frank's eyes He actually spit out the words that touched his soul the most, and each of us will look at ourselves again in the face of reality.

I will still watch this movie again and again, not only to appreciate but also to reflect my own life. Men should be like this, as sophisticated as FRANK, and as charming as pacino! !
