I have every faith in it, as I have faith in relations between people

Such a naive story is so fascinating, I think not only is the script good, but also has a lot to do with Hepburn's face. In addition to being pure and sweet, the more important thing is to have Jiaohan, that Jiaohan is naturally just right, and any more points will become stupid. Later, the courtesan who relied on Tiffany's for dinner could easily gain the audience's understanding and forgiveness, probably because of this factor. Hepburn was young, suffered from war and hunger, and gnawed on the tulip bulbs for so long, and it was not easy to develop such a temperament.

When I was a kid, I thought it was the ending that brought fairy tales back to reality. Today, while eating, I brushed it again, and found that, damn, the ending is obviously even more unrealistic.

The first time she saw him in the group of reporters, she was obviously shocked, and after sitting down, she took another look in disbelief. However, he didn't even show the slightest eagerness to clarify. Maybe he knew he didn't have the chance to explain and could only believe that she would understand, maybe he just focused on seeing her more. Only here, Parker's smile and calmness left the romance story of countless tears and roars far behind.

She only thought about it for a few seconds, then relaxed, and on the occasion of the distant world, she threw out her own thoughts on the topic of diplomatic relations between countries:
- I have every faith in it, as I have faith in relations between people.
This is not asking him. This is already a positive statement. But she clearly wanted a response.

So he said:
- We believe that Your Highness's faith will not be unjustified.

And the phrase "Rome. By all means, Rome." was her love words to him in front of the whole world.

There is no music in the final scene, there is a lot of silence. The camera follows the princess wisely and desperately as she patiently delays the farewell. She shook hands with reporters one by one and said hello. She spoke English, German, French and Italian. It took ten people to walk to him, but at the end she said "Joe Bradley, American News Service", "So happy, Mr. Bradley" ." The

last time he looked back before leaving, he also looked around the crowd appropriately, but stayed there for half a second.

As for him, in the whole process, except for a few correct answers, he was watching her intently and racing against time.

The audience was full of official dialogue and tone. There are so many things that can't be said, and it's impossible to talk about it again. Yet they understand so clearly, so neatly. Complete tacit understanding and trust were reached in a flash. For two people who have known each other for a day, this is not a fairy tale. It still took four days on Titanic, and there was a lot of dog blood and confessions.

    Both inside and outside the play are dreams

    Because of this classic that Hepburn chased, I feel that the male protagonist is a very routine person
