    The smooth switching between the subjective and objective perspectives at the beginning gave me energy, but the story was mediocre as soon as the story was called. Miriam Hopkins, the male protagonist's hard-working dancer, is even more comfortable. In addition, this film also allowed me to see the flowers in the black and white mirror, although only for a short...

    I just like this version. There are many factors, such as audio-visual skills, Bach at the beginning, long shots from a subjective point of view, the use of mirrors, lines, editing, etc. Generally speaking, it is easier for people to empathize and think. Although the heroine is not as beautiful as Bergman, she is more sensual and tempting. Although Mr. Hyde looks too much like an orangutan, this comparison is...

    Subjective, Long Mirror, Overlay, Vignetting, Expressionism. Instead of relying on stunts, relying solely on anamorphic close-ups of photography, and abandoning the previous face-based performance methods, Ma Qi played two roles by one person, and showed the duality of people brilliantly, "seperate two natures". Looking at the transformation process today is still full of magic, panning the camera to show the face and hands, I don't know how to do it at the time, and Martin did a great...

    The sci-fi setting takes care of the human spirit, the soul level has the desired in-depth photography scheduling, and the opening is a long shot from the first perspective. As thought provoking as...

    This plot is much more reasonable than the 1920 version. It is human nature to struggle with hypocrisy even in the...

    The subjective long shot of the title, and the design of time-space switching (shadow, candle, empty mirror, and teleportation) are considered ingenious today. The original work is so easy to forget, that the female characters are not impressed. From hyde's image, you can still see a little bit of the background at that...

    It's a classic story. It was a movie about 90 years ago. There were no computer special effects in that era (not even a computer), but the transformation effect was really good, and there were no blunt marks (maybe because the picture quality was not high) Single color), one can imagine the impact on people's senses and the pioneering significance to the film industry at that time. However, the effect of making a silent film is still greatly...

    Amazed, very advanced audio-visual techniques, such as the transformation of long shots, straight mirrors, diagonal splitting and long-term overlapping, etc. are amazing. Dr. Incarnate chose a path that will eventually destroy it, and the director chose an extremely good actor who performed a near-perfect interpretation of this double-sided role. He seems to be on the road of no return because of science, but it actually comes down to his uncontrollable...

    Both the savage and the gentleman firmly control what they love, just rude and rhetoric. The two are one, and complement each other. I have to say that the film is indeed very brainy. It discusses human nature, personality and humanism in the context of science fiction. The same person's different attitudes look quite funny, but they are scary. The gentlemen in society can suppress their own animal nature. ? The superimposition used in the film is superb, and the round subjective lens frame is...

    This should be the most complete of the originators of the sci-fi horror films I have watched, and it is also the most classic version recorded in film history. The lens is very thoughtful, and the influence of German expressionism is obvious. Make-up, Oscar's best actor The acting skills and the tragic plot made people breathless, and the final transformation finally had a real terrifying...

    [Film Review] Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931) 8.0/10

    This dichotomous horror cinema progenitor which ripsnortinglydelves into the sordid underside of human psyche, is directed by the Hollywood's maverick innovatorRouben Mamoulian and made just shy of the scourge of Production Code.

    From its unorthodox opening sequences, shot with anovoid...

    The soul is separated from the body but pinned in it

    Human beings always have a cognitive dualistic paradox for themselves. On the one hand, it is civilized but repressed; on the other hand, it is barbaric but real. What is true human beings, what is true freedom, can't say how to say. The tragedy of the film is that although the duality of the soul...
