      Their Finest

      I love this movie.
      1. It uniquely shows the human impact, or no impact, of war. Despite the bombing, the heroine still trotted down the street, took the subway all the way, got off the bus, and waded through the rubble to interview for a job. During the bombing, the heroine sat in the air-raid shelter with a bed and read greeting cards, and people exchanged holiday greetings with each other during the war. In the sound of the bombing, the male protagonist turned on the music and wrote the...

      The main theme of the domestic magic revision

      In 1941, when the Anti-Japanese War entered the most difficult period, the Nationalist government moved the capital to Chongqing, and in order to win American aid, North America, a second-rate famous director from the United States, was invited to China to shoot a blockbuster film about the Anti-Japanese War.

      After North came to China, he encountered many difficulties and obstacles, such as the film and television censorship of the National Government, Miss Kong Er's request to...

      without

      The overall rhythm of the movie is flat. In the end, when their drama was released, I saw the last scene where the two leading actors were talking about a small scene by the river and cut into the end of the film. When I was looking forward to this movie and other resources, I saw some film critics saying that the heroine had a husband and cheated with the hero. I was really drunk. I didn't read the whole article. The audience watching? ! The new Madame Bovary of the female lead is really...

      The other side of Dunkirk

      The birth of a political propaganda film from the perspective of a London screenwriter in 1940 about the evacuation of Dunkirk

      The three screenwriters in the film are almost dealing with various forces, first impressing the film production company with the story frame, then filling in the content, and then dealing with government departments. For example, the engine in the film cannot appear because it will show that the British industry is not good. , to make the people more...

      It's a movie, not life

      "People love movies because they have structure and purpose. Life is different, it has no meaning." The most resonant sentence. However, the difference is that movies have capital, politics, audiences, people and people, but not in life. The beginning of the film is too protracted, superficial feminism, and rambling narrative, so much so that I almost roared and ran wild. The whole film, as a love story, lacks details, is a reversal of mystery, and deliberately tragic is also embarrassing....

In order to improve the morale of the people, the British government led the cooperation with major studios to shoot military propaganda films. But the plots of these films were boring, the propaganda was too strong, and they were booed by the audience. In order to add elements to attract women in the promotional film, the Ministry of...

    Evaluation action

    The film depicts the style and character of British cinema in the 1940s, leading the audience back to the good times of light and shadow. Every character in the film is very cute, and all have distinct personalities   . (Mingzhou Entertainment Review)
    The director of the film described the best time of a group of British people on the fringes of the war with a perspective and brushstroke that was completely different from traditional...

    Movie quotes

    • Tom Buckley: It's never for anything. Why do you think that people like films? It's because stories are structured; have a shape, a purpose, a meaning; and when things gone bad they're still a part of a plan; there's a point to them. Unlike life.

    • Tom Buckley: Film, Mrs Cole. Real life with the boring bits cut out. Don't confuse facts with truth, and, for Christ's sake, don't let either of them get in the way of the story.

    • Roger Swain: [to Catrin] Ministry wages start at three and ten, and obviously they can't pay you as much as the chaps. So shall we say two pound a week?
