Breakfast at Tiffany's and Sabrina

Tavares 2022-01-03 08:01:19

Thirty years ago in Shanghai, on a night with a moon... Maybe we did not catch up with the moon we saw 30 years ago. The young man thought that the moon thirty years ago should be a red and yellow halo the size of a copper coin, like a teardrop on Duoyunxuan's letter paper, old and confused. The moon 30 years ago in the memories of old people was joyful, bigger, rounder and whiter than the moon before them; however, looking back after 30 years of hard work, the moonlight is a little bit desolate.

Watching Hepburn's two films, "Tiffany Breakfast" and "Dragon and Phoenix" in one breath, could not help but start to dream of Hollywood 50 or 60 years ago.

That should be an era of innocent and beautiful fairy tales. The beautiful girl would climb the fire escape to the window of the upstairs tenant, knock on the window, and chat with the down-and-out writer. Then climbed to him and asked him: Are we friends? After getting an affirmative answer, he fell asleep in his arms. Tiffany’s clerk will satisfy all reasonable wishes of customers, including engraving words on non-Tiffany products; the ugly duckling girl who learns to cook will meet the kind old baron, train her into a lady, and teach her that love needs to be courageously pursued. , And two years later, the ugly duckling who turned into a swan returned to her hometown. The person she loved fell in love with her at the first sight; in that era, successful businessmen thought that money was a by-product, and his reason for starting a business was just More people can have jobs and more children have shoes to wear; and in the end, when the businessman makes up his mind, his younger brother will prepare a steamboat for him so that he can catch up with the girl who is riding on. Cruise ship in Paris.

Really, it was a very old film. "Tiffany Breakfast" was in 1961, and "Dragon and Phoenix" was in 1954. Bogar was 55 years old and Hepburn was 25 years old when shooting the dragon and phoenix match. Hepburn was 32 years old when he took Tiffany's breakfast. Now, the actors, directors, and staff in these films are no longer in the world. Last year, maybe last year, the long-lived Gregorian Parker finally exhaled his last breath in the world and went to heaven to meet his old man. Friend Hepburn. At that time, a grand end was finally drawn. Complete, and ended without regret. What is left is just a movie that has been circulating for a long time and will be circulating forever.

Fifty or sixty years ago, it was an era of beautiful clouds, Hepburn, Taylor, Joan Fontaine, Hayworth, Bergman, Garbo, Vivien Leigh. They appeared on the screen gently, their white faces hinting at their tenderness. Hepburn still looks like a princess even if he is playing a socialite. And even those sexy stars with a variety of styles still have their nobility and difference in their bones.

    Re-watching found a lot of stalks. In addition to Rose Life and "the sad woman makes Soufflé and forget to turn on the oven", there are also the plastic hammock and Hepburn playing swivel chair remind me of cats and mice | Is very "duty" | Humphrey Bogart is still a male god (.

    With Billy Wilder, Hepburn, and a brother in film history, this lineup is destined to not be disappointed.

Sabrina quotes

  • David Larrabee: What's so constructive about marrying Elizabeth Tyson?

    Linus Larrabee: [offering a sheet of plastic] Taste it.

    David Larrabee: [licks it] It's sweet.

    Linus Larrabee: That's right. It's made of sugar cane.

    David Larrabee: Sugar cane. Wait a minute. This wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that the Tysons own the largest holdings of sugar cane in Puerto Rico, would it?

    Linus Larrabee: Second largest. The largest have no daughter.

    David Larrabee: It's all beginning to make sense. Mr. Tyson owns the sugarcane, you own the formula for the plastics, and I'm supposed to be offered up as a human sacrifice on the altar of the industrial progress. Is that it?

    Linus Larrabee: You make it sound so vulgar, David, as if the son of the hot dog dynasty were being offered in marriage to the daughter of the mustard king. Surely... surely you don't object to Elizabeth Tyson just because her father happens to have twenty million dollars? That's very narrow-minded of you, David.

    David Larrabee: Just one thing you overlooked. I haven't proposed, and she hasn't accepted.

    Linus Larrabee: Oh, don't worry. I proposed and Mr. Tyson accepted.

    David Larrabee: Did you kiss him?

  • Oliver Larrabee: Now, I'm not saying that all Larrabees have been saints. There was a Thomas Larrabee who was hung for piracy, and there was a Benjamin Larrabee who was a slave trader, and there was my great-great uncle, Joshua Larrabee, who was shot in Indiana while attempting to rob a train, but there NEVER was a Larrabee who behaved as David Larrabee has behaved here tonight!

    David Larrabee: And exactly what have I done?
