Dream positive energy

The romance and warmth of this film are as close as the king of Hollywood romance in my heart, and it is also my Hollywood love movie enlightenment "Fate is Destined", but because I love Kate Beckinsale's face too much, it is estimated that I will die. There will be no possibility of being shaken.... Stewart and Sullivan have gone from being unhappy with each other to unknowingly talking to their pen pals to the man who discovered the truth and deliberately concealed it until the final openness and honesty. Hollywood love blockbuster template. In addition, the film also embeds a romantic story into the background of the economic depression and the surge in unemployment, with a touch of realism, such as breaking a head for an "unremarkable" job, etc. In such a situation, having a boss who thinks about the employees is even more heartwarming (incredible). There is a setting in the film that every morning the employees will wait outside the store for the boss to open the door, Such a positive worker who dedicates his life to his boss is just and awe-inspiring... This seems to prove how healthy (boring) it is to stay up late without a mobile phone. The boss suspected that Stewart was having an affair with his wife and fired him, only because he was the only employee who had been to his home, and then found that he was wrong and recalled him and promoted him to manager, as a no-brainer conspiracy theory lover , I suspect it was a conspiracy he devised with the boss's wife, so they did have a leg (cough ahem). I don’t know how to do it, but now I see conspiracy theories when I see images or words that are bursting with positive energy... Of course, Lubitsch will not make a too monotonous romance film, at least this film also portrays it. Many employees are intrigued, and the conflict between the male and female protagonists at the beginning also comes from the competition for scarce jobs. Including after the male protagonist was fired, when he saw the female protagonist at the dating place, the female protagonist who was waiting for the date (actually the male protagonist) sneered at the male protagonist who had just lost his job, with contempt and superiority written on his face.

    The handling of exposing the truth is really daunting, really daring. Possibly the most ingenious film in which Lubitsch ridiculed the dramatization, and it was done in a complete staged space. This cunning is simply exquisite.

    4.7 The light on the faces of the characters is beautiful. The details are cute, the dialogue is interesting, and the image of the stubborn female Wenqing does not make people feel annoying, but makes people feel unrealistic and cute. Stewart's image is so good, his personality is humorous, smart and careful, and the rest of the characters are also very cute and interesting, especially the old colleague of the clerk. (My favorite line: "Hope is an ordinary and lovely girl.")

The Shop Around the Corner quotes

  • Alfred Kralik: Well, that's very nicely put. Yes, comparing my intellect with a cigarette lighter that doesn't work. That's a very interesting mixture of... poetry and meanness.

  • Alfred Kralik: Now let me tell you something, Miss Novak: You may have very beautiful thoughts, but you certainly hide them. As far as your actions are concerned, you're cold and snippy like an old maid. And you're gonna have a tough time getting a man to fall in love with you.

    Klara Novak (Miss Novak): I, an old maid? So, no man could fall in love with me. Really, Mr. Kralik you're getting funnier every minute. Why, I could show you letters that would open your eyes. No, I guess not, you probably wouldn't understand what's in them. They're written by a type of man so far superior to you that it isn't even funny. Ha! I have to laugh when I think of you calling me an old maid. You! You little insignificant clerk.
