    The characters are sharper than the new version, the plot is smoother, and the comedy is very neat and ingenious. Pressing does not represent a direct cut-in technique is particularly...

    Is Jim Stewart finally showing the men's garter belt as a benefit to the female audience back then (⊙_⊙)? In the end, Jim played the bitch like the heroine without slapping him first. Sister thinks the heroine is too...

    Christmas Eve in Budapest, the whole movie is just a grocery store, with all kinds of clerks, only Jimmy Stewart shines the most... What a warm movie, I also like the remake version of "Electronic Love...

    Obviously it is a bridge, but Lubitsch can create ambiguous and uncertain emotions, which is really beautiful. In addition, his ability to fool the time is also quite...

    Xiaopan said that he wanted to watch something lighthearted in the new year, so he thought of this romantic comedy by Lubitsch. The departure of paper and life, the emergence of contradictory love quietly, and the super fast speech speed like shotguns, the love at that time was really...

    James Stewart is so handsome! I really didn't expect such a fun movie in four years or so, but I'm furious that it's not very good to play like that at the end. . . Otherwise I'd give it five stars. Think of the electronic love letter as a modern version of the...

    The old version has the unique warmth and fun of black and white Lubitsch; the new version also has the chic romance of the new version, I think it's...

    What a great director would it take to make a great love movie that is so subtle, incomparable, and perfectly balanced between real and fake drama and reality? Popular, clear, accurate, vivid, charismatic, talented, and captivating, I think Lubitsch's films have that fascination. This work, when viewed from a dissection, also integrates social division of labor, management skills, classification of company employees, director's art of expression, group performance, differences between men and...

    Can be cute and love Lubitsch, and is really a master of character relationships. In the first game, the relationship and character of several people were vividly displayed in a few words. A store, a single scene, a few clerks, this "shabby" configuration, in his hands, easily constructed a picture of the working class. Lubitsch has left the stage of relying on the spectacle of the story to support his cards. He uses "perspective" to control the audience - so that the male protagonist is...

    It's you? Love that used to be slow

    For the slow love in the past, we will wait for a tender letter, full of expectations for the unknown, we will carefully organize the language, carefully seduce, and be seduce carefully. People who think about it will feel cute and true.

    We "inadvertently but deliberately" show the world and heart...

    In this era of fast food, does love also need to be efficient?

    After watching this drama at 84 Charing Cross Street, this book and this movie have one thing in common, that is, they are not "fast food" love, they are committed to bridging the distance of space and time, and beautiful things follow churn. In real society, many things need to be efficient, but...
