The beginning and the middle are rather boring, and the latter is much better after the Russian battle. The boring duel is much better with the changes of the times and the torrent of fate. I admire the character of the male protagonist, repay grievances with virtue, and the handling at the end is also very...

A good character and a good actor are great to watch. A paranoid and a normal person win, lose and draw. The fourth uncontrollable trembling is too real. The paranoid is fearless and unmoved. The contingency in the absurdity is what it should be. The fifth and more dangerous pistol has grown up after many years. I have the capital to stop rationally. Walking from the forest to the top of the mountain may not be able to open up for so many years, except for paranoia. It's cute to recuperate and...

If you use a little divergent thinking, it will make people feel that this movie is like a combination of duel + flute shocking the soul of the army. The plot is so simple that people feel that it is a duel for no reason for fifteen years, and it is necessary to fight as soon as they meet. . . Harvey Keitel is really like the big truck in the duel, chasing Karadin. . . It looks incredible, but if you have seen the drum and flute shaking the soul of the army, it will not be incredible. After...

Lei Gong's debut work is quite amazing. From this film, we can see that he has a strong control over ancient costume action films, which laid the foundation for the future shooting of [Gladiator] and [Kingdom of Heaven]. Each character seems to have jumped out of classical oil paintings. Coupled with the exquisite and beautiful use of light and shadow, it has become a rare...

The first one is so textured. I like the French uniforms at that time. Dubert is faithful and personable, while the upstart Farrod appears reckless by comparison. For the honor of men, they fought for fifteen years without a word. But Dubert eventually found himself who belonged to him, and Farold realized that his time was over, like Napoleon exiled to St. Helena. Both supported Napoleon to varying degrees. Dubot had no intention of slandering the former emperor like traditional aristocrats,...

The film is really good, the colors, the mirror scene, and the texture of a 19th century oil painting. Conrad's story itself is outdated, representing the values of the old times, whether honor or tolerance, it doesn't seem very meaningful today, and the structure is simple and drama is not enough. But this story was shot with a lot of feeling, which is probably the sense of the old times, the rhythm of life, individualism, and the historical sense of the meaning of...

Fifteen years, four life-and-death duels, just for one sentence, and finally don't even remember that sentence. The course of the duel between the two officers is like the war launched by Napoleon, chasing and fighting others, others passively fighting back, and finally dying alone... Who are you trying to conquer? What do you want to...

"Good-looking debut"
First movie ever made by Ridley Scott, the Master of Hollow Spectacles. Visually stunning. As a period piece, the research that evidently went into preparartion of the costumes, settings and army paraphalia, is simply amazing.
The plot is perfunctory. It is the kind of scripts that you figure can... -

Kind of like a Chinese martial arts novel
I have a lot of fate with this director. I just watched his recent movie "A good year". If you look at his early work, you can see that he is really talented. There is a naive feel to the movies of the '70s, though.
The film is about two French officers in the Napoleonic era who experienced 4...

[talking about a marriage]
Armand D'Hubert: If I were to neglect making you a proposal, no blame would attach to you. And I think perhaps you might be saved from a... sad dull life.
Adele: If you neglect to make me a proposal, my uncle will go mad.
Armand D'Hubert: Damn it, you are not put on this earth to coddle your uncle.

Narrator: The duellist demands satisfaction. Honour, for him, is an appetite. This story is about an eccentric kind of hunger. It is a true story and begins in the year that Napoleon Bonaparte became ruler of France.
