    [Great] 251-minute director's cut version, lamenting that Leon has made the film to the extreme in multiple dimensions: the ultimate image sensory mobilization, so that it is not limited to sight and hearing; in a slow and orderly rhythm, all past events are recalled It has been restored and given life as much as possible, so that it is no longer just a "memories"; it is almost impossible to use rational thinking to generalize, discuss or summarize the film; and emotionally, this film gives you...

    I really don't understand why such films and crime films like The Godfather are called must-sees for men? ? Seeing women only as objects of desire is full of the fantasy of straight men's cancer. I wouldn't like a guy who likes this kind of...

    Friendship is still friendship, whether your occupation is gangster or police. What changes are people's desires, and what doesn't change is the friendship in the past, which is why sometimes friendship is great and sometimes very...

    First-class dispatch (the elevator overlooks and rubs the America in the 1920s), first-class feelings (Leone kept De Niro with tears in his eyes, his feelings in the past were ups and downs, returning to childhood through a peephole, and sighing time through a pocket watch), plot The setting is top-notch (the mutual explanation of the two timelines), and the fun is also very good (the prelude to "The Magpie Thief", which is a baby's bag, jokes). Shaohua flows, Jiguang Pianyu's passing,...

    [Shanghai Daguangming 4K Extended Edition] Two years later, the theater revisited and felt deeper. Whenever the theme song sounded, tears filled my eyes. The first half of the laugh was filled with tears, and the second half was filled with mixed feelings, as if I had read all the ups and downs of life. Can't get out of the mood of the movie. Morricone’s soundtrack, exquisite multi-line narration and characterization, diverse matching editing, De Niro’s acting skills and Jennifer Connelly’s...

    Nothing to say, every scene is so beautiful and daunting. Leone, who has made genre movies for a lifetime, has dealt with all kinds of pornography, violence, and comedy at his fingertips, but focused on exaggerating nostalgia and regrets, using a small Jewish gang to reflect the sacrifice of humanity behind the rise of the US economy. And freedom. Look again, I like the joy of changing a baby the most. The 4K restored version screened in the archive adds missing paragraphs, and the plot is...

    Excited in advance, bathing in advance, eating a lot, taking time to make up for sleep, going out at night, going to bed at dawn, staying in the crowd... To me, nothing is more like Chinese New Year than watching an episode of "Once Upon a Time in...

    The whole narrative is structured in an interesting way, and the transition is very good, so it is perfectly feasible to interpret the whole story as a self-deceiving dream of noodles lying in the opium house (a long dream starting from the harsh phone ring) . You have their own merits with the godfather, there is nothing to compare, the past in the United States is more delicate, and girls love to watch a bit more. The relationship between Noodles and Max is going to overflow the screen. Do...

    some thoughts

    I watched "Once Upon a Time in America" ​​the day before yesterday. The director is very good and skillful. The ingenious switching between the past and reality made me amazed. Picking it up with one hand, from which it immediately switches to Young Noodles being picked up by his brother when he...

    Prime Minister Cao, Second Brother Guan, Alpha

    Noodle is a leader of feudal (civilian) values, who cares about profit and righteousness, and lives in the moment. Street life and gang business are inseparable from this spiritual banner.

    Max is a hybrid "economic man" who has the instinct to put interests first, but has some cultural yearning for...
