It took sixteen minutes to realize that this film is not a silent film! ?

Only after seeing some subtitles appearing in the middle that occupy the entire screen did I realize that this seldom used film technique is a legacy from the past.

I realized that the frame has also changed! Much more comfortable!

… It’s weird to be able to perform an opera well in this environment. I understand why the people in front of the stage have to intrigue, but I don’t understand why they have to quarrel with the staff. Is everyone in front of the stage so arrogant, unless they are stupid?

Everyone is so stupid, it's hard to love

The quality of the opera is too bad

Although the subject can be guessed from the very beginning: the innocent girl came to the big city, but she was so enthusiastic that she lost her enthusiasm, her dream was broken, and she fell into a fairy tale. Can you also see who is going to be satirized, as if it is too explicit?

The actor looks like Chandler haha! In friends

Is my sister's neck broken? Can't straighten up? !

Moved... The two sisters are doing things for each other stupidly, and don't discuss it. Is it that what you love most is that things like each other are so hard to see?

Sister acted so well, crying broke my heart when I gave up everything

This can be HE! Really served

In the last five minutes, almost every line echoed before and after, including the dance steps are the same, and the people holding behind have changed; including looking for hats; including sister’s pet phrase; including sister’s change of attitude towards Broadway

Is it true that the theme is love? No, the subject should be the feelings the sisters paid silently for each other

    The younger sister, the understanding elder sister, the scumbag. But when it comes to love, no one can tell.

    The first Oscar for the best sound film, the music is good, although the plot is old-fashioned, the acting is overdone, and the lines are naive, but there is still no style, people at that time were so beautiful, okay?
