Absolute classic. After I look back from the first Oscar best picture, the best one is this one. The artistry is a little worse than "All Quiet on the Western Front", but on the whole, which one is better than this one? It looks much better. Although it is a movie from the 1930s, it has been almost 100 years since now, but some of the comedy plots in it can still make me laugh forward and backward without losing elegance. Many people think that "Roman Holiday" draws on this. The movie, I think, is like that, but they are both masterpieces, but Roman Holiday is smarter, not because it is older and less famous than Roman Holiday, so I say this script is very powerful , it's just bad luck. I like the heroine and the hero, but the style is too old, and many people may not be popular. Compared with this one, the casting of Roman Holiday is more popular. After all, Ao Dai Li Hepburn, it's so beautiful. Compared with this, Roman Holiday is more like a fairy tale, and this one can be a road movie, although it is not like Roman Holiday, there are many interesting things, because it is a travel, And this one is more like a difficult journey, seeking joy in hardship. Tan Ce also established the tone of the film. Poverty is not scary. What is scary is that poverty destroys a love, a friendship, and a family. I personally think that this The movie is better than Roman Holiday. The last shot of Roman Holiday is indeed a classic, but I think this one is generally better. I have watched a lot of romance films recently, and found this after over and over again. Compared with the middle of the next 90 years Out of the love film, I was deeply attracted by this.
