《Legends Of The Fall》film reviews

Burning in love broken months, those Legends of the Fall

        ----- Legends

       Western United States, the vast plains of endless, weary of war, Major retired cavalry alone, raising the three brothers, in this form is almost purely male world, the third brother, his fiancee Susan Hill Mo arrival of four young people started between pain and depression can not escape the love and hatred. Big Geyifurui and brother of Susan Choi Augustine are love at first sight, and Susan Choi Augustine was attracted to the unique temperament. Initiation of love of beauty, emotional burst of excitement, also could not withstand the fate of the birth of tragedy.

------ Broken months

        Month is missing

        Susan, her husband's thoughts and expectations, as insisted on going to a war front to fight the war dead husband mountains and devoid of Mo. They have not formally married, not like some Yanhao. It is precisely because of brutal war, cruel faith, Augustine Choi ashamed witnessed the fight to the death to protect the death of his brother Mo Shan, also shattered his thoughts, his beliefs are shattered, he cursed God, despair, loneliness, warp, and even forgot to curse himself.

Feelings on a

       After retiring, Yi Furui, and Choi Augustine have been home. Once again see the beautiful Susan, Yi Furui could no longer suppress the love for Susan, Mo's grave in the mountains so for years poured out her feelings. Susan was shocked but in addition, more emotional Augustine Choi is heating up. Two young soul and body finally strongly intertwined, she devoted the first time Augustine Choi. Discard all fear, is so brave and blazing, because that is entirely because of love. Since it is so blazing love, do not let yourself regret. But the harsh reality, maybe then the love can not withstand a blazing temper, and only escape is the way to maintain its beautiful form. Incest because it implies a sense of love, death implies the sake of Mo Shan love, both Augustine and Susan Choi, still the same innocent Yi Furui, are unable to withstand the torment and suffering. Augustine Choi So naturally uninhibited choice to flee the other party to continue been cosmopolitan life. Susan was heartbroken even to retain.

Yi Furui not wrong, Augustine Choi also not wrong. Only two people love each other the most when you are willing to sacrifice this do exist, and Susan Choi Augustine have each dedicated their strongest love most true. Choi Augustine already had a commitment not to Susan, he was not Hill Mo has deep secular concept of chastity, the guidelines only believe in love, only that their own inner voice. Sexual gratification, simple beauty, this is enough. After the fulfillment of commitments and promises are not without hope and true commitment to pay, which is more shameful? Which is more pathetic? Susan and I, like Augustine Choi also deeply in love with a humane, magnanimous man uninhibited. Choi Augustine I also like the most beautiful flag will remember thermal love the moment.

Is pinned on

        The wait depleted Susan Choi Augustine's endless expectations. Finally, she chose to marry a career flourishing Yi Furui. Before long, wandering around Augustine Choi returned to the care home, saw the state of the stroke grown old father, knew his brother Yi Furui has became members of Congress, and Susan became the wife of his brother. Thousands of thoughts, feelings spontaneously. Later, Choi Augustine lived a quiet life, and the small Isabel, married, had two children, and work for the family business, peace and good days.

        Gradually the quiet in my thoughts and Cui Yi Furui and Susan Augustine and his wife Isabel, a couple meet again after many years of the moment and burst. When the tears with a smile touched Susan Choi Augustine also called the son of Mo Shan: "I know that your uncle killed in mountain Mo, you look like him." I never could not suppress his emotions, and the concentration the time for all complex life pouring out of a common fate and years of endless contradictions, with deep feeling.

In order to turn around the family, Augustine Choi brother despite Congress's prohibition, to start the sale of smuggled liquor. Can not be avoided, he acts in breach of the Members of Congress, the police are, as well as government officials who protect. He paid for this behavior is the most painful price for his lost wife, Isabel. Isabel Luanqiang in order to show the warning had been killed, what a pity how ridiculous! I am not suppress the anger and loneliness, not to mention Augustine Choi. But, perhaps, he has gradually numb.

------ Love is forever

        Suppression could not hold onto thoughts of love read. Susan Choi found himself still deeply in love with Augustine. When Augustine Choi and Isabel married know, she suppressed a sad smile that distorted face lingering in my mind. When Augustine went to prison to visit Choi completed her faith in this life and the final farewell, after she fell in love with him like no regrets no regrets as to the suicide. Very sad that her husband Yi Furui unexpected things may happen, but not without bitterness for all to bear this fate, Augustine Choi as he said: "I follow all the rules, people's rules, the rule of God , but you never abide by the rules, but even more than they love you love me, mountain Mo, father, and even my wife. "ruthless run over the fate of the gear a tacit understanding between the two brothers, as was a slap in the face fan down in front of strangers in public, no family love for asylum, only to succumb to or a deeper love for their own strange. However, it seems destined for tragedy in the end there will be a miracle of love to friends and relatives in Augustine Choi for a congregation to revenge, when Isabel, Yi Furui secretly to protect them in the dark, to save his father and brother life, to kill his colleagues, killing him and his father, his brother a common enemy.

I love the end of the film, and bear in the fight, and fight against nature, Augustine Choi ended his life. I love the final finishing touch to a meaningful conclusion: that he for something. Perhaps not only in the emotional interaction and natural fight, Choi Augustine can be free, to forget life's love, life, remorse, and his love.

        Love is love, hate also hate regrets. This man and this woman taught me the love and invincible.

《It Happened One Night》film review


It Happened One Night is the film generally credited with launching the "screwball comedy" genre popular in the 1930s and 1940s. A difficult genre to define, the screwball comedy revolves around the characters' contradictory desires for individual identity and complete union in heterosexual romance.The films pit the couple's erotic moments of courtship against their verbal combats, battles of wit spiced with rapid-fire, brilliant repartee. Because of the resurgence of censorship in 1934 coupled with an American reluctance to be frank about sex, screwball comedies capitalized on the necessity to mask and to express verbally sexual tensions and conflicts. Screwball comedies usually relied upon a final reconciliation or marriage to establish the couple's unity but undercut it as a resolution to the couple's ongoing differences. It Happened One Night established these generic rules and provided a model for incorporating into a comic structure attitudes, fears, and tensions about social, sexual, and economic roles.

It Happened One Night, the story of a runaway madcap heiress who is befriended by an individualistic journalist so he can "scoop" her story, simply adapted for a Depression-era context a popular movie formula of the 1920s. Movies such as Dancing Mothers or A Woman of the World presented man-woman, husband-wife relationships in which both parties were witty, intelligent, charming, and thoroughly at odds with each other. Unlike the screwball comedies that arose later, these films extolled aristocratic life styles and proper behavior while resolving the sexual issues on superficial terms. German-emigré director Ernst Lubitsch strengthened the structural integrity of the formula and created the prototype for the screwball comedy in Trouble in Paradise and Design for Living. Impressed and influenced by Lubitsch's films, Frank Capra borrowed the comic romantic structure that Lubitsch had evolved in order to deal with middle-class sexual and social proprieties. But Capra used the formula as a vehicle for the resolution of all economic and social differences in one vast American middle class united by the virtues of caring and sharing.

Capra's simple Depression-era philosophy, often labelled "Capracorn," is conveyed in It Happened One Night as a modern folk tale reversal of Cinderella. Rich girl Ellie Andrews flees her father so she can marry the worthless playboy of her dreams. Penniless and thrown on her own, she runs into the out-of-work ace reporter Peter Warne. In exchange for her "story," Warne helps her return to the playboy. Traveling by bus, foot, and auto across the backroads of 1930s America, they discover a mutual independence of spirit, feistiness, and resiliance. Warne gets the story, Andrews gets her playboy, but both discover that what they had really been seeking they had found in each other. The rich girl ultimately gets the poor boy proving that even the wealthy, if given a chance, will subscribe to the working class values that were deemed a prescription for fighting the Depression.

One of the most successful films of its time, It Happened One Night is in its making and reception a "rags-to-riches" story. When Capra first proposed the film based on a story serialized in Cosmopolitan, Columbia Pictures executives disliked the idea and thought that the fad had passed for bus movies. At least five Hollywood stars turned down the leading roles. Colbert initially hated the picture, and Gable only made the movie because angry MGM executive Louis B. Mayer had loaned him to Columbia as a punishment. When the finished film finally opened, poor reviews and indifferent moviegoers led to the movie's closing after only one week. The film resurfaced, however, and went on to win the top five Academy Awards. The film made stars of Colbert, Gable, and Capra, and Gable's bare-chested appearance in one scene has been said to be responsible for a 50 percent drop in undershirt sales within the year. Critics have since tried to explain the secret of the film's enduring popularity. They have generally credited Capra with inventing a message that audiences wanted to hear. The nutty romance, a down-to-earth courtship that maintains a spirit of crazy adventure in spite of adversities, showed audiences then as well as today, as critic Andrew Sarris said, "the private fun a man and a woman could have in a private world of their own making."
