That night without a kiss on the face is better than all the lingering nights today

Road Romance. "Roman Holiday" is obviously born out of this, both are classics, but the latter is more classic, perhaps thanks to the heroine.

In terms of the plot, the men and women doubt each other at the beginning, various crises, the feelings deepen unconsciously, and finally they are forced to separate, and the happy ending is simply a model of road romance.

It is enough to be a screenwriter, make a movie, and act, and one of them can be handed down in one's life and become one of the top 100 selected works in a genre!

    The pioneering work of a crazy comedy, the story of a rich girl and a professional man rejoicing at each other is mixed with the road movie genre. The local tyrants are more open-minded, the jokes are classic and cute, and the ending is subtle and straightforward. Watching together with "Blood on the Mutiny", in "It Happened One Night", Gable was called the king at the station, and he wanted to live with a girl who loves surfing on a small Pacific island. These are intertextualized in "Mutiny" . |21.4.11 Rewatch, a reporter from a rich family and a poor family, happy friends walking together, a neuro-comedy road movie, and a masterpiece of classic bridges. The heroine bravely pursued love and ran away but found out that true love is actually the originator of the idol drama story. The hero and heroine's rival dramas are sparkling, and the cute jokes and sweet interactions are vividly played. The symbol of the Jericho wall is subtle and interesting, and the use of soft light mirrors Adding to the fantasy, the Great Depression background gives the film a realistic aftertaste. Won the five major Oscar awards that year, "Roman Holiday" is often considered to be the successor, and the modern version with its essence should be "Leap Year".

    World Film History: The most special feature of Hollywood classicism in the 1930s is that it can still show moving love stories under the Hayes Code in special times. It can be said to be the original story of "Roman Holiday", but compared with the later film, the film has a darker side in the context of the times, but the overall and details of the play make the tone of the play become euphemistic and humorous, especially the call to inform the scene , but it's ironic enough for now.

It Happened One Night quotes

  • [Peter hangs a blanket between the twin beds in their room at the autocamp]

    Ellie Andrews: That, I suppose, makes everything quite all right?

    Peter Warne: Oh this? Well, I like privacy when I retire. Yes, I'm very delicate in that respect. Prying eyes annoy me. Behold the walls of Jericho! Uh, maybe not as thick as the ones that Joshua blew down with his trumpet, but a lot safer. You see, uh, I have no trumpet. Now just to show you my heart's in the right place, I'll give you my best pair of pajamas.

    [he offers her the pajamas - she ignores them - so he tosses them at her]

    Peter Warne: Uh, do you mind joining the Israelites?

    [indicates he wants her to go on the other side of the blanket - she doesn't budge]

    Peter Warne: You don't want to join the Israelites? Alright.

    [he begins to undress]

    Peter Warne: Perhaps you're interested in how a man undresses. You know, it's a funny thing about that. Quite a study in psychology. No two men do it alike. You know, I once knew a man who kept his hat on until he was completely undressed. Yeah, now he made a picture. Years later, his secret came out. He wore a toupee. Yeah. You know, I have a method all my own. If you notice, the coat came first, then the tie, then the shirt. Now, uh, according to Hoyle, after that, the, uh, pants should be next. There's where I'm different... I go for the shoes next. First the right, then the left. After that it's, uh, every man for himself.

    [he starts to unbuckle his pants and she runs to the other side of the blanket]

  • Ellie Andrews: You think I'm a fool and a spoiled brat. Well, perhaps I am, although I don't see how I can be. People who are spoiled are accustomed to having their own way. I never have. On the contrary. I've always been told what to do, and how to do it, and when, and with whom. Would you believe it? This is the first time I've ever been alone with a man!

    Peter Warne: Yeah?

    Ellie Andrews: It's a wonder I'm not panic-stricken.

    Peter Warne: You're doing alright.

    Ellie Andrews: Thanks. Nurses, governesses, chaperones, even bodyguards. Oh, it's been a lot of fun.
