"Gone with the Wind" - I saw parts in 2014, but then watched Hitchcock's version, and only watched Orson Welles' version in 2016. The long shot at the beginning is good, but the only uncomfortable thing, and the reason why I didn’t watch it at first, was that the dialogue in the group show was too noisy. However, if you get used to it, you'll be fine. The heroine is the heroine in Hitchcock's "Psycho", and the female supporting role is the goddess Marlene Dietrich. Although she has few scenes and vicissitudes, her eyes still have drama. She filmed the famous "Prosecution Witness" not long ago. . The intuitive police "touch of evil!" is a better title.

    From a technical point of view alone, it is already a movie with advanced audiovisual language. The scheduling of the first long shot is still excellent even now, and combined with the suspense very well, it can be called a classic. Sheriff Hank was so good, I can't tell if Orson Welles was better as a director or better as an actor. Generally speaking, it is a noir film that is still smooth and full of suspense when seen now. It was definitely beyond the times to be able to make it in 1958.

    The second-rate story has first-class skills, the control of the camera and the presentation of the sound from the beginning to the end. The gray area on the US-Mexico border reminds of Villeneuve’s "sicario", but due to the age, a large number of studios are not recognizable enough. Hitchcock thought that Fatty wasn't cruel enough to Janet, and two years later, he made "Scary" in an even weird motel. Archives.
