Movie Review: Miss Shanghai

7.5 points. I should be watching the abridged version, and I told such a story in less than 90 minutes. The director is really good. But I don't like this practice of narrating at every turn. It might have been relatively new at the time, but now it seems that it has been abused. Several men thought it was the mantis catching the cicada, but unfortunately, the oriole was behind, and everyone was tricked by the beautiful woman. In fact, I think it will be more exciting for the female pig to escape the French Open in the end, and the escape of the male pig in the end is a bit too hasty. PS: Shanghai this time is a lying gun~

George Grisby: How'd you like 5,000 dollars?
Michael O'Hara: What?
George Grisby: That's what I said. 5,000 dollars, fella.
Michael O'Hara: What do I have to do for it?
George Grisby: I'll fill in the details later. Meanwhile, think it over, Michael. 5,000 dollars. It's yours. All you have to do is kill somebody.
Michael O'Hara: Who, Mr. Grisby? I'm particular who I murder.
George Grisby: Good boy!
Michael O'Hara: You know, I wouldn't like to kill just anybody. Is it someone I know?
George Grisby: Oh, yeah. But you'll never guess.
Michael O'Hara: I give up.
George Grisby: It's me. I'm perfectly sober, Michael. I'm willing to pay 5,000 if the job is well done. This is a straightforward business proposition. I want you to kill me. So long, fella!

George Grisby: What's your guess, Michael? You think the world's coming to an end?
Michael O'Hara: Well, there was a start to the world sometime, so I guess there'll be a stop.
George Grisby: It's coming, you know. Oh, yeah. It's got to come. First the big cities. Then, maybe even this. It's just *got* to come.
Michael O'Hara: I'd prefer to be somewhere else, if it does.
