In my childhood memory, one of the deepest impressions was an Egyptian movie. At that time, I hadn't learned any world history, and my understanding of Egypt was only limited to the category of the four ancient civilizations. The TV at home will often watch "Appreciation of Great Movies" broadcasted by Liaoning Educational TV Station on time. The show will introduce a movie every night and show some wonderful scenes. Probably it was this show that aired the movie "The Mummy", which indirectly gave me a strong interest in Egypt. Sometimes I wonder, is my interest in Egypt as a Chinese just like Europeans' interest in Chinese culture? Angkor Wat, Babylon, Pompeii, etc., these mysterious ancient countries, staged scenes of confusing legends, attracted me.
Speaking of Egypt, one must think of the pyramids and the curse of the pharaoh. There is a BBC Egyptian documentary at Station B. The hostess has red hair and a very characteristic logo. The name is not remembered for the time being. If you are interested, you can find it. The audience can follow in the footsteps of the host to understand all aspects of this lost country-ancient Egypt.
Speaking of this movie, the subject itself has a large degree of mystery. In addition, the restoration of the whole movie is very high. The special effects of the mummy are also chilling. With a little joke, it is rare. , The lines of the second part are also related to the first, the so-called "official complaints, the most deadly", the whole is a hilarious laugh. Although there are a little unreasonable things (such as Anna Sui dropping Amoda to escape), I think the merit is far greater than the excess. As a commercial film, I think this film must have a very high box office back then. I don’t know if any Douyou ever made statistics on this aspect.
Recently, I have always wanted to watch "Cleopatra", but it always fails to play. I can only find another chance to enjoy Elizabeth Taylor's superb performance.
