Real enemy + dream lover + ignorant girl + witty uncle = a happy story that must stop at recognition~

Very ingenious design, I didn't think of the male protagonist's strategy, nor the way the two finally recognized each other.

The hero is very smart, haha.

In addition, the narrative is not procrastinated at all, and the characters of the supporting characters are also very distinct, especially the boss Mr. Maddochuck.

The two lines approached each other and experienced a trajectory of up-down-up-down-recognition.

But to be honest, if near the end, if there is no female protagonist who suddenly appeared "Anyway, we all have a partner, it's okay to talk about it", I really don't know how the male protagonist should recognize each other, he still just resorts to " "Mr. Pumpkin came to see me last night", the heroine may have to be startled, this is a little unexpected, at least there is no premise before, but the ending has long been a foregone conclusion in my heart, and it has finally come true , the audience naturally fell to the ground.

    Can be cute and love Lubitsch, and is really a master of character relationships. In the first game, the relationship and character of several people were vividly displayed in a few words. A store, a single scene, a few clerks, this "shabby" configuration, in his hands, easily constructed a picture of the working class. Lubitsch has left the stage of relying on the spectacle of the story to support his cards. He uses "perspective" to control the audience - so that the male protagonist is omniscient, the female protagonist does not, and the audience from God's perspective is also omniscient. After the hero is discovered by the heroine, I am nervous about how to end it. Even if you see the two finally come together in the last scene, you will still laugh and applaud them in the bloody scolding. Simple, advanced. PS deliverymen Pepi and Vagas are the highlights.

    I watched it with my parents, what a cute video! The skill of the screenwriter is really good. This is a model of film first and then drama. I really like Liu Bieqian, the old fox.

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.
