Outdated, more fashionable: I watch 007 movies

Janice 2022-02-07 14:07:31

I watched several old 007 movies with Mr. C these days. From the beginning of the first generation 007 Sean Connery as the starring role, I watched four or five films, and then the fourth 007 Timothy Dalton, only watched one. So in terms of time, I passed the 60s, passed the 70s, and stepped into the 80s.

Guns and beauties always raise the adrenaline level. Although it is difficult to understand as a woman, 007 has been prosperous. It can be seen that men have not evolved much in the past half a century. I don't know the skills of guns and secret agents, so I can only talk about the beauty: the bond girl.

Unlike Bond herself, Bond girls do not have to be citizens of the British Empire. But no matter where you came from, the look of Bond girls in the 1960s is highly recognizable, and it happens to serve as an important reference for the vintage style pursued by young artistic artists. Fluffy curly hair, exposed forehead, heavy eye shadow, lip makeup that strengthens the contours of the lips, shadows and blushes that emphasize the three-dimensional effect, bikinis and bikinis that can appear in any place, the plump female body wrapped in bikinis, all kinds of The pursuit of aesthetics is quite different. The various dresses and coats that show the curves of the body also appear very frequently and are very feminine. The influence of Pop Art on women's clothing and home furnishings is also very obvious.

I just visited the automobile museum in Mulhouse a while ago. I still remember the antique cars from the 1960s. Most of the fronts are quite long and round, the lines are very gorgeous, the rear is small and compact, the trunk capacity is obviously very small, just look at the side, and The 80 and 90's Founder's cold and hard industrial lines are different, which is very different from the current models. In any case, consistent with the feminization of women at the time, the cars at that time also felt gorgeous, plump and sexy. The chase between luxury cars and police cars in 007, watching various retro cars speeding on the street, will make life feel like this evening.

The streets at that time were completely different from what I felt in the movie now. The neon lights at that time look too simple now. All kinds of signs are outlined in bright colors and flash on the street, making people feel like Shanghai or Guangzhou in the 80s and 90s. The building is not so glamorous in film. Compared with the popular images that are now pursuing the realization of daily life, the streets at that time were often empty. In the Western world, it was a period of turbulence and turbulence and anti-mainstream movements. The Beatles, hippies, psychedelics, rock music...the dark reality is a rich and profound torrent of thought. Young people seek fullness and excess to fight against the emptiness and fatigue of the spirit, from which we can see the source of aesthetics at that time.

Nowadays, women demand light, elegant and neutral makeup. Sometimes they suddenly look back. The rich beauty of the 1960s is like a shot in the arm. On the one hand, women nowadays have gained much more rights and independence than they did then, on the other hand, they have yielded to the aesthetics of the patriarchal society under the pressure of rapid social development. So there are very rich female images and shapes, which can be neutral, but also very feminine and very sexy. However, even if it is sexy, it is not as aggressive as it was more than half a century ago.

Going to the theater to watch movies, watching pictures on the Internet, reading magazines in bookstores, the human society in the images is getting more and more refined, and real life is indeed getting more and more refined, giving people an illusion that we are constantly improving. Maybe it's really progressing, but I don't know what the direction is. This is something that humans can't grasp. This is a sequelae of my own reading of many science fiction novels.

Looking forward, it’s not clear, everyone had to look back. We were like this back then, oh, then I’m so awkward that I’m not an obscure teacher. Speaking of which, young people or stubborn stylists will tirelessly pursue a certain image of their ideals, and the standard of fashion has been repeatedly erected in this way.

In any case, speaking of 007, this MI6 agent is quite up-to-date. Although it is still a British background, it is already made in the United States. Daniel Clegg, incarnation of New Century 007, is still a woman's dream lover. And the beauties are also fearless, going forward and succeeding. Then, please continue to dream for us.

    Basically all the advantages and disadvantages of the 007 series are already there. Fortunately, the gangsters were arrogant as aliens at that time, otherwise it would be much less fun. It's more interesting to watch Bond pick up the frenzied madness and the mental illness of the IQ Chinese than he uses his fist to teach the horror fans. Especially when my little brother was almost scrapped, he looked nervous, very real

    Goldfinger really has such two strokes, gilded beauty, it's a pity to die

Goldfinger quotes

  • Colonel Smithers: [Referring to the gold bar on the dining room table] Mr. Bond can make whatever use of it he deems necessary... provided he returns it, of course. It's worth five thousand pounds.

    [Bond reaches for the bar, but M stops him short]

    M: You'll draw it from Q Branch... with the rest of your equipment... in the morning.

    James Bond: Of course, sir.

  • Colonel Smithers: Gentlemen, Mr. Goldfiinger has gold bullion on deposit in Zurich, Amsterdam, Caracas, Hong Kong... worth 20 million pounds. Most of it came from this country.

    James Bond: Why move it?

    Colonel Smithers: Because the price of gold varies from country to country. If you buy it here at 30 dollars an ounce, you can sell it in, say, Pakistan for 110 dollars and triple your money... provided, of course, you have the facilities for melting it down.

    James Bond: And has he?

    Colonel Smithers: Apart from being a legitimate international bullion dealer, Mr. Goldfinger poses... no, that's not quite fair... *is*, among his many other pursuits, a legitimate international jeweler. He's legally entitled to operate modest metallurgical installations. His British one is down in Kent. We have yet to discover how he transfers his gold out of the coutry... Lord knows we've tried.

    [to M]

    Colonel Smithers: If your department can establish that it is being done illegally, the bank can institute proceedings to recover the bulk of his holdings.

    James Bond: I think it's time Mr. Goldfinger and I met... socially, of course.

    Colonel Smithers: I was hoping you'd say that.

    M: It might lead to a business talk... Mr. Goldfinger's kind of business.
