Scared

I was intimidated by that magician figure. The name given by Xi to the female spy is similar to Freud. The head of the female protagonist was hit, so that the psychiatrist believed that the disappearance of the little British woman was just her fantasy, and the physical cause was because the head was hit. At first, I thought it was a heavy movie related to fantasy psychological problems. After seeing the film, the psychiatrist was the mastermind. It was just a suspenseful spy war movie, which was quite relaxing. The male and female protagonists have changed from being enemies at the beginning to partners in solving the case. The male protagonist's trust in the female protagonist is the premise for love to happen. The two get along tacitly, and the atmosphere is relaxed. The joy of love, the suspense caused by solving the case, and the depression brought by the background of the train make this train journey full of fun. The audience, like the people in the play, had an adventurous and interesting journey. As an aside, the spy's name is similar to Freud, and the person who arrested the spy is precisely the doctor. Not sure if there is a metaphor. However, it can still be seen that Director Xi has a different infatuation with Freud?

    His British period works are brilliant and more intriguing than some later American works. The opening is long but ironic, and the characters are ready to come out. The plot design and mirror use of the heroine losing consciousness in the car after being smashed, and the scene of the luggage truck fight are all very classic. As usual, it is the perfect ending after the thrill of handsome men and beautiful women.

    The shootout at the end is just like a joke, but considering that it was 1938, I endured it. Hitchcock girls are always so beautiful. This is one of the few political patriotism educational films, but it can still be filmed with great interest. Think about what we were doing back then.

The Lady Vanishes quotes

  • Iris Henderson: I've no regrets. I've been everywhere and done everything. I've eaten caviar at Cannes, sausage rolls at the dogs. I've played baccarat at Biarritz and darts with the rural dean. What is there left for me but marriage?

  • Iris: Boris? Miss Henderson speaking. Look, someone upstairs is playing musical chairs with an elephant. Move one of them out, will you? I want to get some sleep.
