      all tricks

      Director Tony Richardson, after graduating in 1953, worked as a British radio and television producer and director. In the mid-1950s, he devoted himself to the upsurge of the British freedom movement, and worked with Lindsey Anderson, the most well-known freelance film leader. It is mostly expressed as the distress and resistance of young people, which sets the tone for the "Angry Young People" movement (Angry Faction). While calling for creations to fully express the...

      still very good

      1964 Oscar for Best Picture, Director, Adapted Screenplay and Score + Best Actor in Venice.

      A typical postmodern nonsensical comedy, narrative: masked characters + exaggerated plot + sudden and forcible reversal of happy ending.

      Formally: the character's various words and deeds breaking the fourth wall & narration spoilers, self-referential (such as "the passion scene is omitted as usual below") and self-deprecating & a few minutes before the title is released, the silent...

      "Tom Jones" The Prodigal Son Comes Back

      The director uses humorous methods to tell us how to guide energetic young people to return to the mainstream of society.

      An absurd English comedy, a panorama of 16th-century England, a fascinating affair. At least that's how I positioned the movie. The protagonist of the film is Tom Jones, a common British name. But on the way to pursue his love life, he caused a lot of hilarious jokes. Director Tony Richardson is a person who is very good at...

      It's basically a love story full of metaphors, irony and amusing. The male protagonist is enthusiastic, sincere and upright, but he uses his lower body to guide his upper body. This unreasonable debauchery has hurt his sweetheart many times. Are the various insults to his illegitimate child status and the subsequent plot reversal a sad and joyous history of the birth of capitalism? All kinds of funny and funny ratios are obviously the model of later comedy...

    Movie quotes

    • Lady Bellaston: Have you not betrayed my honour to her? Am I neglected, slighted for a country girl, for an idiot?

      Tom Jones: Neglected, madam?

    • Lady Bellaston: Lord Fellamar is one of the most gallant young fellows about town. Make love to you, indeed! I only wish he would. You would be mad to refuse him.

      Sophie Western: Then I shall most certainly be mad.

    • Lord Fellamar: Madam. Miss Western is hardly encouraging.

      Lady Bellaston: My dear lord, you certainly need a cordial. Fie upon it. Have more resolution. Are you frightened by the word "rape"?
