Another classic by Michael Powell & Emeric Pressberg, the best ballet-themed film in film history. 1. Discuss women's dilemma between art/career and love/family. The contradiction between devoting to the stage vs. husband and child is polarized to a certain extent by men's selfish coercion. 2. The 17-minute [Red Dancing Shoes] ballet in the film is a feast of color and a paradise for music and dance. , and created the tradition of inserting the entire song and dance in the film. 3. With the help of editing, camera position change, and special effects of dissolving, the stage play is made into a movie, and it has become an extraordinary and colorful ceremony: orange, blue, iridescent stratus clouds, candlesticks, steam lamps, curtains, skeletons, towering The crooked and twisted tower deeds are like a variation of German expressionism, the black castle and monsters are quite gothic, the lonely house in the dark night + endless pieces of paper + infinite depth recalls Kirico's paintings, and the pas de deux with newspaper people is overflowing Fairy tale. 4. Moira Shearer and Anton Walbrook performed admirably. (9.0/10)

The 16-minute ballet solo scene in the film is very classic and intoxicating. This dance is called film and television second, and there should be no film that dares to call film and television first. The restored version of the 20200925 Film Archive, full of colors, classical lighting, and rich in details, is indeed one of the two favorite color films of Lao Ma, and later color films may not necessarily surpass it! After re-reading it completely, I realized that I had read a lot less in those days! The heroine aunt is a rich person. The troupe boss thought she was playing tickets at first, but she didn't expect that she was talented, willing to endure hardships and firm. The role of the boss is decisive. Knowing talents gives opportunities. Poisonous and tasteful, I hope the heroine will devote herself to art! The depiction of the life and work of the ballet troupe in the film is very rare. There are so many Russian dancers. People who are engaged in art are really close to Bichi! Now it seems that the male protagonist is very selfish, he can start anew himself, why can't the female protagonist return to the troupe and start over! It's simply the pull of art and love, which has killed the heroine! The heroine's stage makeup is completely different from her usual makeup. This story originally came from Andersen, no wonder it is so poignant and heartbreaking!
