Break through

Rating: 8/10 (25 April 2020)

I've always liked these films about Vietnam, Cuba and Burma. Even though scarface only mentions Cuba at the beginning, I'm still fascinated by the background, and the movie is also very long, it's over 170 minutes long, and after watching it, I think the ink is a lot like oliver stone, the ink, but the ink is interesting. Trivia and director interview, it was oliver. Stone writers, and it is when he was the most unappreciated, almost bankrupt become box office poison, depressed under the adaptation of the script, change after ya is very want to personally guide, but the management and the producer said what also dare not to him, but found a director of great box-office appeal -- -- -- -- -- you know, remaking old piece of how risky, but still so deeply rooted in a classic black and white, how difficult also, want to break through the difficulty is roughly equivalent to remake the 83 version of the legend of the condor heroes.
I didn't see the old version of scarface, I just saw a few bits of it in the sideshow. It was a classic. There was a scene of picking up a girl, which many movies have copied.
Female: "he is your boss"
Man: "I'm only interested in you right now."
I think when AL Pacino was young, he was very skilled in his performance, and it was a big breakthrough just because of the length and the spectacle.
Behind every boss has a remarkable woman, the woman looks like eat soft rice, what matter son who actually, this woman is the most terrible, in "once upon a time in America, we see how wheat, phase the coquettish beauty between the adept with their elder brother a few, and how to live to the end of the safe and sights. The rest of the people are all muddle-headed flapping street, she is still clear to understand alive, alive to tell the story of the magnificent brotherhood, the romantic love story.
In this movie, too, scarface steals the boss's woman, who then walks away from him, leaving him to pounced on his gun-riddled luxury home.
American movies, often intentionally or unintentionally reflect on their national pride themselves on the "American Dream" () of an American Dream, to outsiders is very beautiful very reasonable national traits, they repeated reflection, from Fitzgerald's novel to many many Hollywood movies, is to reflect on the question: a tycoon by tramp through their own efforts, a by our own wisdom become the mainstream of society, an implementation of a legendary American Dream, he, will, happiness? Should not, get happiness?
In fact, we have already seen that the sad gatsby, who has never been confident all his life, is unhappy, and the great citizen Kane, who is still living a more empty and lonely life, can't even get to the end of his life on scarface, a Cuban stowaway.
This kind of self-reflection and self-deprecation has always sold well and made people feel sorry for themselves, but never has an American declared that his values are being challenged, and that in the face of strong destiny and complex humanity, people should always be humble and low-key. And raise the importance of the self-deprecating spirit to the level of introspection!
