The original novel for this movie is one of my favorites. The original novel is nearly 700 pages long, and this 82-minute film actually cuts most of the original content, especially (I think) the essence of the book: the male protagonist's exploration of the meaning of life and trying to understand why life can be so tortured, aka the meaning of life and why life is such a torment. Almost all of the major life changes of the male protagonist in the book occurred at the moment of...

The discussion of money in the book "The Shackles of Life"
1. There is nothing in the world more humiliating than worrying about your livelihood all the time. I despise the people who see money as dung. They are either hypocrites or fools. Money is a sixth sense, without which the other five senses cannot function fully. Without enough income, half of the possibilities in life will be blocked. Doing anything is worried that it will outweigh the losses, and will never pay two shillings for a shilling. Some people say that poverty is the best...

poor person must have something mean
Of Human Bondage The language was witty, and there was laughter from time to time in the theater. Davis plays an unlikable waitress who turns to the medical student who was obsessed with her in the first place whenever she has a problem. The medical doctor played by Leslie Howard (that is, Ashley in Piao Li) has some problems with his feet. Although he knows that Davis has no intention of him, he can't ignore her every time she comes to the door, even if he has a good girlfriend at the time....

In honor of an unacceptable woman
Having studied Mildred for hundreds of times in the papers. Literally Mildred should not be depicted as hideous as what Bette Davis had illustrated. Bette Davis is adept at turning all the novel characters into her own image, which is rather incredible but sensible to some extent . Honestly, Mildred exhibited the other facet of females, which may be filled with the new feminism during the post Victorian age and the independence in females' spirits. Mildred, unlike the other female characters...

THE FIRST BITCH ON THE HOLLYWOOD SCREEN
Rating only for the heroine's performance: 5 stars - film history classic, passed down through the ages
"An evil heroine such as Mildred was really unheard of in that day. JL could not possibly understand any actress who would want to play such a part", Davis said (JL refers to Jack L. Warner, Davis's then-owner of Warner Bros. Pictures.)
In the 1930s, the on-screen image of wickedly unsympathetic women was unheard of, as both actresses and their bosses Worried that such...

why~no~i dont mind~ The heroine is beautiful and arrogant from the beginning, to the end of the downfall, Bette Davis has performed very well. It is really what she can't get that is always in turmoil, and she is not afraid of being...

The story between Betty and Oscar behind the film is even better. Even if you haven't read Maugham's novel, you can still feel that this is an unsatisfactory adaptation. I'm watching two leads, Bette Davis's first "Otty" and first time with Leslie Howard. The woman she plays horrible is always in the woods, and there is always...

This masterpiece is not suitable for film and television dramas, even if the two biggest names are...

Although the heroine is vulgar and ruthless, I really can't hate her. Who made this Bette Davis? I always hope that the male protagonist can take her in again and again! The century when the male god Leslie Howard was humiliated was heartbreaking! I beg this pair of officials to stop abusing them, can they have a good...

It's okay, this movie really responds to the saying that poor people must be hateful. Although the heroine is very ungrateful, the people she loves don't love her, they don't take her seriously, and she is also a pitiful person. In addition, I didn't expect Betty to play the role of a crazy woman when she was...
Thorpe Athelny: Well, I suppose youth must be served, but I must say, I'm sick and tired of serving it!
Thorpe Athelny: Don't stand by my chair in order to make eyes at him.
Thorpe Athelny: I don't think women ought to sit down at table with men.
Philip Carey: Oh! Don't you? Why not?
Thorpe Athelny: It ruins conversation. I'm sure it's very bad for them. It puts ideas in their heads. And women are never at ease with themselves when they have ideas.
Philip Carey: You sound like the old voice of England.
Thorpe Athelny: I am, sir. And this is fine old Yorkshire pudding that gives me the strength to carry on.
