    There is only one Leslie in the world. The whole film basically avoids all the main contradictions. The oriental girl and the native aunt and the smoky land and the patriarchal husband, the rest is a series of running accounts without much...

    When "Texas Eye" played again, people could no longer be immersed in its melody. This time, they looked into each other's eyes, and finally saw the self outside the vast Lone Star State in each other. Perhaps, at a very early age, we should have the courage to admit to ourselves our vulnerable...

    Another fading west by George Stevens, 24-year-old James Dean and 21-year-old Elizabeth Taylor played all the way from youth to middle-aged and elderly people without being in harmony. I thought it would be a heart-pounding large-scale western epic, but it turned out to be mostly based on points. As for the main line, it went round and round and went back to the parents of the wealthy...

    Now you can watch it as a western scenery historical film. When turning from the manor in the east to the west, the sky full of yellow sand and the sun is terrifying, but when the plot develops and then turns back to the east from the west, the rough and unrestrained nature of the west appears to be a little jasper in the east. Looking at it now, the second half is too deliberate. But the first half of the characters are interesting. In particular, Elizabeth Taylor, in the first dinner scene,...

    I didn't expect it to be a film with such a large span, so many elements involved, and such a long film. I feel that what I want to explore is the change of people, society and racial concepts in the passage of time. Presumably such a theme has more space to express in the novel, but this film seems to have too many elements to talk about it in general. Also, James Dean's character feels underutilized and a potential character wasted. Hudson and Taylor are quite satisfactory, and Taylor can't...

    As long as more than three small, long and dull. It involves sexism, racism, the Industrial Revolution, anti-war, and the American dream of getting rich overnight, but all issues are shallow and politically correct without exception. Jet, the rebellious character, was finally overwhelmed by the weight of his own after challenging the giant several times. This seems to be a metaphor for the entire American society. Although there are many contradictions, it can always move forward in...

    Based on Edna Ferber's novel of the same name, then I think it should be a problem with the script. Although the 200-minute movie is not full of characters, the plot is either jumping or procrastinating. . Taylor is very beautiful, and there is nothing to say. Rock's acting is very average, especially when he lost directly on the same stage with Dean. James Dean is really an actor with natural acting skills. Fortunately, he died...

    This traditional white farmer's tale of the irreversibility of racial integration through the marriage of his children is a bit outdated these days. There's a part against big business upstarts, but Dean's character is so completely disconnected that most of the time he feels infectious but behaves inexplicably. It's a pity that this is his last film. Hudson and Taylor don't quite hold the show for such a large age...

    Miniseries hookup. I can't see how good James Dean is. It's okay to play young people, but middle-aged and old people are a mess. Are all gays who aren't married to Elizabeth...

    The history of the Democratic wife's influence on the Republican husband

    It's a waste of a Western epic if you're just thinking of James Dean's final film as James Dean's last film in memory of a teenage icon who died young: 10 Oscar nominations on full display (the year's most-nominated film) .But there were too many good films that year, and the awards were too...
