Not a film review, trivial afterthought

I watched the sequel first and then watched the first one, so some places were spoiled in advance. The director of the second part is Jack Nicholson. It can only be said that he is an actor and director, and he is quite different from the real director. The difference is that "Return to Chinatown" has so many narrations that my head is big, and most of its information is piled up with these gorgeous words. "Chinatown" relies on narrative, audio-visual, and quietly leads the audience into a better state.

It is also an intricate relationship between characters, with a large number of characters appearing, the former appears disorganized, and the latter has a clear idea. The love scenes are romantic, and the character Jack is so vivid and believable that I couldn't help but want to peek into his Chinatown past.

Once again experience the "Internet of Everything" that Sydfield said. Evelyn had an incest with her biological father, gave birth to a daughter, and her daughter was involved with her titular stepfather, and the effects were like ripples.

Overall, the theme of the film is very grand, but I still don't want to include it in the "great movie" column, why? I also need to watch it a few more times to figure it out. The abrupt ending concretizes the "wandering" in literary works, which is very powerful.

    Is this script so godlike...how does it feel quite satisfactory?

    Sister=Daughter This terrible was later used in Kislovsky's [Ten Commandments], but it was not as tangled as this one. The film has a casual classic black tone, although the performance is now very exaggerated, but the play is really classic.

Chinatown quotes

  • Loach: What happened to your nose, Gittes? Somebody slammed a bedroom window on it?

    Jake Gittes: Nope. Your wife got excited. She crossed her legs a little too quick. You understand what I mean, pal?

  • Jake Gittes: Evelyn, put that gun away. Let the police handle this.

    Evelyn Mulwray: He owns the police!
