Commemorating my first silent movie

I downloaded this movie by accident. I only knew it was an old movie, but I didn’t expect it to be the first time I watched a silent movie.

I have never decided whether or not to watch a silent movie. Even though I have always wanted to see why Chaplin is so remembered by the world, but I only watched Chaplin's movie "The Great Dictator" with a sound, now I want to Think, silent movies can really be said to be timeless classics! !

The background of this film is that the feudal society entered the capitalist society and devoured the farmer’s land. The silent film has no language and cannot hear human dialogue and psychological monologues. Therefore, it can only rely on music and the expressions of actors to see the city. The women's debauchery and unscrupulous snakes and scorpions here can see the contradictions and self-salvation of men, and the kindness of women. . .

Equipped with music, the turbulent struggle and conspiracy, the sweetness of love rekindling, the happiness and cherishment of the last embrace, just like the sunrise, illuminating their house, illuminating their love, and illuminating their hearts NS. . .

Now those actors with facial paralysis should really look at those actors from the silent film era and learn what acting is. . . . I really sigh for them. If one day, turn off the voice and block the lines, what is left in their performance?

Fortunately, there are some classics of the times. . . .

I love the kiss in the last scene. I think, in the movie, in those days, we didn't avoid using kisses to express our feelings. When did we start? I don't know, I only know that after the opening up, it is advancing by leaps and bounds! ! ! Think about the current heavy taste eyeballs, hey, the pace is too fast. . . .

Miss such a clean kiss. . . .

Sunrise quotes

  • The Man: [pleading to his wife] Don't be afraid of me!

  • [opening title cards]

    Title Card: This song of the Man and his Wife is of no place and every place; you might hear it anywhere, at any time.

    Title Card: For wherever the sun rises and sets, in the city's turmoil or under the open sky on the farm, life is much the same; sometimes bitter, sometimes sweet.
