The King of Comedy Comments

#North Film FestivalRewatch# Although Jerry Lewis spends most of his time tied up with adhesive tape on his mouth, this film tells the story of his evolution, especially De Niro's mental journey. Locked in an obsession, his mirage, his madness, an insane dream of becoming a TV idol, he tried in vain to meet his idol and try to imitate him. Between two violent outbursts, the journey is often a frantic end-point, completely out of control, with a dark comedy that keeps audiences on edge at all...

4.5 There are golden sentences that slap the face extremely painful, the montage segmentation and the agitation of different material images running through the realistic fantasy makes people speechless. What Old Martin boils is pure poisonous chicken soup that will die after drinking and then come back to life. Can know before the end of the movie which of De Niro's self-confidence or insanity is the end of the cold joke. What's even more awesome is the form and texture of not flipping, not...

The last 6 minutes of De Niro's talk show was wonderful. It made the characters' character backgrounds more complete. At the same time, it also satirized the chaos of American society's TV culture in the 1980s; 35 years later, the extreme emotions and even the critique of the information society that entertains to death still has value...

Black inspirational. "I'd rather be the king of the night than be a boring person for a lifetime", full of irony and bitterness. Compared with the comedy of the same name by Xing Ye, which is also a small person on the road to success, I still have considerable malice towards the extreme way in this film - until I saw it on TV, I always thought that his performance would be pinch by the TV station. Lose. At the end, the protagonist stood in front of the stage to receive applause as well. Lord...

Rewatch. Clipping God. (By the way, complain about The Clown, I learned too much) Lao Ma is really the most fierce one in New Hollywood. There are too many things in this film. Overall, it is simply a collection of American social complaints. And De Niro's acting skills are still...

The 2019.11 Reboot may be Martin's scariest movie. De Niro hallucinated laughing at the photo wall and the ending of fame was like a ghost...

[8.4] Joking, ironic, unparalleled from casting to script. De Niro performed this second-hand act of being stubborn about the talk show career to the extreme, even at the risk of committing a crime, and many scenes were really angry and funny. In the end, people who were looked down on in the industry were favored by the audience, which is really...

The sense of the times and the state of the characters are extremely precise, and Rubert does not need to say more. Jerry's confusion and sincerity completes the whole...

①Absurd story, embarrassing characters, De Niro's perfect interpretation, early film, late acting ②Always excited, always lively, not crazy or alive, the little guy finally lived as the king of comedy ③I would rather be a king of the night than be a mediocrity People ④ Scorsese satirized the social ecology of entertaining to death. Directors with a certain degree of social concern have this tendency to express, but if they turn to "solidarity, tension, seriousness and liveliness", it will be a...

After watching the first half, I still feel that the film is average, the whole thing is too deliberate and not very natural. The further back I got, the more powerful I became, until I watched TV in the bar, and I was really convinced! Lao Ma still has a big thinking in this movie, and arranges the narrative calmly. In the end, I guess it may not be true. (I have to think of the clown, I think the clown is really weak, a very ordinary...
