    The rebellious young people in the 1950s, the students on campus were rude and evil like beasts, I was really angry when I saw the broken record... The final "Jungle Showdown" was designed so well, the campus and education have always called for love and tolerance, It is also a good idea to think in terms of survival of the fittest. Chop him! ! ! I'm mad at me, dog ×...

    Rock Era unveiling. Instead of taking the idealistic route of turning the wind into the rain, it shows the difficulties of fighting against the poor and bad boys. The brilliance of the protagonist can only shine on those who are good in their...

    The film is so-so, but the history is of great significance. Since then, there will be films with the same story almost every year. Brooks has a keen eye for the peculiar social and cultural background of a postwar generation of teenagers. Rock music replaces jazz tights and black-and-white mixed schools and racial issues. By contrast, other similar films (such as Rebel Without a Cause) are just scratches. But the other woman in the married life and the wife are pregnant with the...

    Generally speaking, educational films about the relationship between lecturers and students are considered dramas, but this one is a crime film: in addition to making trouble, bad boys will beat up, smash, and even rape the female teacher! And in the end, it was the teacher who solved the problem by fighting the bad boy one-on-one. It is no exaggeration to use the title "Jungle". ////// The protagonist is not flawless. At the beginning, his unconscious racial stereotype made him suspect that...

    4.5. Glenn Ford is perfect for a role of this kind of integrity. The wife asked her husband if the teacher who was bullied by the students was sexy, and the husband replied that he was indeed very sexy. Then the wife looked jealous and began to question her husband, what clothes she was wearing today, the male protagonist wanted to change the topic... The wife asked to put her arms around her to sleep, this part was so...

    Brooks' eyes are always in a dilemma. From the performance to the shots, the content and form are extremely restrained, and try to get rid of the subjective position of the preset position. The resonance of reality brought about by this is even more unexpected, and it can be called a good story passed down by neorealism in the United States. Poitier emerged brightly and dazzled, and 12 years later returned to the film as a...

    "Don't turn your back on them." Don't turn your back on them, and don't forget the curse and the blade behind your back. As bad as it could have been, it's almost a prison-inspired movie with a rock 'n' roll vibe. In a few inches, the provoked authority, the responsibility to guard, the manic, alienated students, and even the blood was splashed. Sidney Poitier is really a superstar,...

    The title of this film is particularly good. The blackboard is the main medium for transmitting knowledge in schools, symbolizing education. Education often represents "love and hope". ”, this film tells exactly such a story with intense conflict and opposition. I like this film very much....

    Youth, Exploitation and Hollywood's 1955

    It's the end of the road, boy

    Critic Gilbert Shields argued in 1950 about the value of teenage audiences to Hollywood: "The real moviegoers are made up of younger people . . . Children survive, they always automatically and habitually slip away to see the movies... Half of the people over the age of...

    [Dadier approaches West and West pulls out a switchblade. This stops Dadier in his tracks and the rest of the class gets up and out of the way]

    Artie West: [West starts backing up from Dadier and calling for help from his gang, but none get involved] Belazi!... Morales!... Stoker!

    Gregory W. Miller: [Miller challenges Stoker] You wanna gang fight? You wanna start a rumble? Come on, boy, just make a move.

    Artie West: All right, you guys. Bascillo, Rock, move, both!

    Richard Dadier: What's the matter, West? You need help? Come on. You're holding the handle of that knife. Come on, you're the leader. You're the tough guy. You can't cut alone, huh, West? You're not so tough without a gang, but you were tough that night in the alley, weren't you? Seven to two. That's about your odds, isn't it?

    Artie West: This time you get cut up!

    Richard Dadier: Yeah, the gang-up didn't work. You went to the principal withg as story about race prejudice. You couldn't get rid of me that way. Then you started sending those foul letters to my wife. Didn't you? Didn't you, West? End of the line boy!
