    As a Noir, the picture is too small and fresh. Religion, good and evil, etc. are indeed a bit of a...

    I have been a little tired of aesthetics recently, but the film recommended by Mu Shan still left a deep impression on me. It is worthy of being a classic, and I recommend...

    The handling of lighting and shadows, the background sound effects, and the characters' performances are all excellent. Even if I turned the sound very low, this black-and-white film that scares children still makes me a little...

    In a society where men are absent, it is mostly foolish women who are tempted by the devil. Thinking of "Forbidden Games", the child's innocence instead adds strength to the evil, making the story cruel. The actors' performances are a bit pretentious, and the underwater photography is...

    A modern-day version of Bluebeard, a sort of horror movie. Even in black and white, the picture is very beautiful, brutal and romantic. Except for Mrs. Cooper, all the women in the film are portrayed as ignorant, innocent and stupid, and in a way women are like this, which is really sad. The scene where the two sides sing the same song against each other is very genius, and the scene where the bad guy is caught and his son rushes up is really ingenious!...

    The layout of the screen is very delicate, it is the kind of delicate, deliberate but really good-looking. Robert Mitchum's evolution as a villain is really awesome, and that slyness is even more terrifying in the shadows of black and white. The lens is beautiful, but the whole story is too religious, everyone is talking about it, only the old lady played by Lillian Gish is naturally many, I have to say that the beauty is still beautiful after getting...

    A false prophet who doesn’t know he is a false prophet is the most terrifying

    You can't be distracted while watching a movie.

    It will reduce a masterpiece to ordinary.

    "Hunter's Night" has a good script, and there are almost no extra paragraphs in the whole film. "Beware of false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing but cruel wolves inside. They can be recognized by...

    woman, woman

    According to Baidu Encyclopedia, the film "Night of the Hunter" is the only film directed by Charles Laughton with a strong expressionist color. The greatest work of the 1950s. I think the most commendable thing about this film is the irony of the kindness of women's nature.
