It's a pity that the first man doesn't like the second man, otherwise I would have liked it. .

This is the first silent film I watched. To be honest, I watched this film very hard. I almost gave up six or seven times. On the
one I can't listen to the sound when charging, I can't appreciate the charm of the sound. The
third movie has too many long shots. As an impatient person
, I almost went crazy. The fourth movie is too long, it's really long. The movie is still Gone with the Wind.
My way of narration may be a little strange, mainly because I am still young, so I am very emotional when I see problems and movies.

I think this movie just represented the highest level of Oscars at the time. Now it seems that there are many technical flaws, such as the characters are not dubbed, and the special effects scenes are not realistic enough.
Because I don't know how to do it, I can't give any insights on his technical issues. As a sentimental liberal arts student, let me tell you my views on the plot. The plot of this movie is full of routines in my eyes, such as "love triangle", rivals becoming friends, misunderstandings, and forgiveness. In the end, it's all because of the war. Maybe I'm not deep enough, I can't resonate, and the description of the plot just makes me think it's a patchwork story.
I don't want to spread it out like writing an essay, so I'll talk about the main parts where the plot is unreasonable. Jack loves the eldest lady, the eldest lady loves David, and Mary loves Jack.
Before departure, the eldest lady secretly prepared a photo of herself for David. Jack thought that the eldest lady prepared it for you. Blindly confident, he took the photo and kept it in his collection. I don't know where he got his confidence, and it's strange that the eldest lady didn't explain that the photo wasn't for him. David is a mother's treasure. As rivals in love, David and Jack didn't feel how deeply they had feelings for the eldest lady. The character of the eldest lady was set to leave the scene soon, which made me confused. Is Mary mentally ill, knowing that Jack doesn't love him, so she has to keep pestering him to prove her great and selfless love? I don't understand, I took the initiative to send someone a picture of myself before I set off. I didn't see Jack take out her picture. In the middle of the war, he went to Jack like a fool. Jack didn't recognize him and comforted himself like a madman. Saying that Jack is just a boy, he wants to exert his motherhood and get the love of others like a mother, and he doesn't understand her values.
Speaking of Jack and David, the aerial combat may be really exciting. As a girl, I don't really understand it. I don't mention it, but when David finally stole a plane and was hit by Jack, David kept going Gesturing to Jack, trying to identify him, Jack, stunned by rage, didn't notice until he killed his friend. I'm hehe. Although it's a movie, it was really defeated by Jack's brain-dead. It was said that people in those days were simple and simple, and there was no such brain-dead. If I were David's mother, I would never forgive him.
Doesn't Jack love Eldest Miss? I don't understand why he married Mary in the end. You didn't look down on others back then, and they knew about others for your life and death? Your true love tender? It's so cheap, it all ended because of the war?
I only give it a 5 out of 5 for this movie, and I won't give it an aperture just because it's the first Oscar-winning movie. I seem to be criticizing it all. In fact, other aspects of this movie are still good, such as the actors' acting skills. I can be emotionally infected without listening to the voice. This is the charm of the plot and the actors' acting skills. But if I want to watch it again now, I will definitely refuse, maybe in ten years I will be able to understand the core of the movie.

    #FIFF#American main theme movie, but the sudden turn of something near the end is very innovative and seems to satirize the main theme as well. Special effects are not out of date now, let alone in 1927. But overall the story is pretty decent.

    2015.03.23.13:25 I put it in the dial but I haven't seen it all the time. In order not to let it continue to occupy space, I'd better look it up: Hey, compared to "Sunrise" which won the 1st Academy Award for Outstanding Work of Art ” feels a lot worse, the story is not exciting enough for me, and the subtitles are used too frequently, but as the first Oscar best film, it is still worth recommending. ...the shot of Jack lying on the grass looking up at the sky reminds me of Boyhood.
