another adventure

The work directed by Frank Capra, at first glance, is an adventure love between a rich woman and an ordinary man, but it is similar to Roman Holiday, and it is also a male reporter, but the compact plot, romantic and light-hearted style, makes you feel at all. Not wanting to shut down the movie, but eagerly looking forward to what will happen next.

Clark Gable also changed my outlook. In "Gone with the Wind", it was somewhat uncomfortable. The ruffian energy at the beginning didn't feel like this was the hero at all, and slowly I accepted it, here it is. Glad it was him.

Note: "Roman Holiday" 1953, the plan for this film was first proposed by Frank Capra in 1949, and the production was hindered because the screenwriter of the film was blacklisted. It was later taken over by William Wheeler

Roman Holiday (1953)
9.1
1953 / USA / Comedy Drama Romance / William Wheeler / Audrey Hepburn Gregory Peck

Now, unless there is a strong sense of substitution or a special favorite, I will not give five stars, because of the few movies I love. The previous five stars don't count.

    The walls of Jericho are toppling. So cute! ! ! ! It's said to be the first version of Roman Holiday, but isn't it still a routine to rejoice in the arrogance and prejudice of the enemy (it's not). All the CPs of small reporters and rich people are () meal replacements in my mind. But Gable is so suitable for this kind of role that has some flair, some nonsense but has undeniable justice and principle, where they play fake couples a few times along the way but they play super in tune, and at the end the little reporter and father-in-law angrily The place to admit love is so cute! The romantic comedy lines in black and white are so cute.

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.
