The film "Smell the Scent and Know a Woman" is adapted from the novel of the same name by the Italian writer Giovanni Alpino (some people have literally translated the title of the book as "Darkness and Honey"), and the author's Captain Fausto is more real and plain , the little teacher who traveled to Rome with the captain is also a typical fascinated young man. They fought each other and learned a lot from each other at the beginning. The novel method is to test the conflict between the individual and the society, especially to test the heart of the individual and the whole country. The characters in the book's excellent confrontation with black often flash their insights into love and loneliness, life and death, sharp and profound, and directly probe into the weakness of human nature.

    This movie is very strange. It's been almost an hour since I first watched it, and it was boring and boring. Sitting there for an hour is so boring! But when it was about to end, the scene where the blind man was driving was really moving, and there was a dancing scene a little further ahead, all of which were very moving. I finally finished watching it, and then I revisited it, it was really good. But the movie is really too literary too literary. I personally give it four stars. Reference for others

    If one day, I am old and helpless, please leave me in this time, please bury me in this spring.

Scent of a Woman quotes

  • [Headmaster Trask drives into the Baird School driveway in his brand-new Jaguar. He gets out, to hear a voice on a loudspeaker]

    Jimmy Jameson: [on loudspeaker, but unidentified] Mister Trask is our fearless leader.

    [students hear this and gather, looking on at Trask]

    Jimmy Jameson: A man of learning, a voracious reader. He can recite "The Iliad" in ancient Greek, while fishing for trout in a rippling creek.

    Trent Potter: [Trask grins slightly, trying to figure out where the voice is coming from] Endowed with wisdom, of judgement sound, nevertheless about him, the questions abound.

    [We now see the same three Baird guys who set up this prank the night before; Harry opens the valve to an oxygen tank connected to a large balloon on a lamppost as Trent passes the microphone to him]

    Harry Havemeyer: How does Mister Trask make such wonderful deals? Why did the trustees buy him Jaguar wheels? He wasn't conniving, he wasn't crass... he merely puckered his lips... and kissed their ass!

    [balloon spins around to reveal a cartoon bearing the words being spoken; the students laugh and mock Trask]

    Harry Havemeyer: [Trask pulls out his car keys and opens the Jaguar door, then jumps up to try to pop the balloon with the key. He misses on the first try. On the second try, he succeeds, and a flood of white paint splashes down onto him and all over the car. The students applaud loudly and shout obscenities at him as this catastrophe concludes with Trask kicking the car door closed and attempting to dry his face with handkerchief]

  • Lt. Col. Frank Slade: [Lt. Col. Frank Slade is speaking in defense of Charlie Simms at meeting at the Baird School] Now I have come to the cross-roads in my life. I always knew what the right path was. Without exception, I knew, but I never took it. You know why? It was too damn hard. Now here's Charlie. He's come to the cross-roads. He has chosen a path. It's the right path. It's a path made of principle that leads to character. Let him continue on his journey.
