I really can't believe that this movie was made by Martin Scorsese, but it also shows how great he is to try all kinds of genres. In particular, the heroine has a section of Solo, which is very well cut, and there is no sense of splicing. And there's that kind of feel of the musical heyday.

Some people say that this movie is very similar to "La La Land", I don't agree with it. The characterization of this film is completely different from "La La Land", Mia and Sebastian respect each other, but in "New York, New York" Jimmy is very strong, he always wants to control others, until he loses Francine and finally He still wants to save, he said to Francine: "Can we do it all over again"? Then wait downstairs for Francine to eat Chinese food. Francine finally made it to the door, but ended up going back. She was hesitant in her heart, but when a person began to have their own opinions, she no longer wanted to be led by others, she began to have "own thoughts", although Francine still loved Jimmy. In the end, only Jimmy was left on the street. Jimmy finally laughed. You can never resist De Niro's smile. Mia and Sebastian are different, although they are not together, but the last smile at each other shows that they respect and understand each other. However, the two films also have the same place, that is, Jimmy and Sebastian finally opened a club of their own, and the tone of the two films is relatively similar. I think La La Land borrowed a lot from Martin's film.

I thought the movie was a little too long, but seeing the ending, especially Francine's hesitation, and Jimmy's laugh, I think it's all worth it.

PS: I really searched hard for the resources of this movie???

    In fact, in the end, the song and dance that looked like a tribute to the heroine's father was not bad, but watching the growth of the characters and the plot in the whole film became quite bloody. It's better to say that the genres you like are different and finally break up. De Niro is really handsome, but as a musician, it seems that his acting skills are not complete, especially when the opposite is a real singer. The bridges are so beautiful, but unfortunately the two protagonists don't call so much.

    Start with the shoes and end with the shoes. In all Scorsese's works, this one is the most special, the most prominent and the most dazzling. Romantic, free and easy, fresh and cute to the extreme, the two characters do not follow the rules when it comes to love. The photography and the sets have some shadows of Hollywood musicals, not very Scorsese, but very Scorsese at heart. Amazing! Several shots are really shocking! Liza's big eyes in the favorite mirror see De Niro in the distance behind him, it's so beautiful!
