On the 26th of the month, Stenberg's "Blue Angel" returned. This video marked the beginning of the full entry of DreamWorks into war.

It was also on this day that the drama "River" invested by the 20th Century Film Company: The director of the film, Frank Boshaqi, publicly claimed at the premiere that the goal of the 20th Century film was to surpass the Colombian film "The Ugliest Man in the World".

When the reporter asked why the movie defeated Clark Gable, Frank Bosch smiled faintly and said a confident sentence: "Because we have Henry Fonda!"

When Bao Shaqi said this, there might be many people who expressed doubts, but when the movie premiered, those who doubted it basically did not exist.

It is worthy of being Bao Shaqi's intriguing work. In this movie, there is no bustling prosperity with bright lights and wine, no one after another in "The Ugliest Man in the World" toast and dance like a beautiful woman, no one love for men and women, no one who is drunk and dreaming of death, and some are just a simple but intriguing story.

A man lives in a remote mountainous area and is accompanied by a big river. All the stories in the movie revolve around this man and this big river. What the movie shows is the magnificent natural scenery, the hardness, majesty, loneliness and sadness of a man.

In the movie, Frank Baoshaqi expressed his thoughts on the world and his worries about it. As a director with rich social experience, Frank Baoshaqi criticized the indifference and alienation of human nature brought about by the rapid development of industrial society. Through a seemingly plain and thought-provoking story of a man living in harmony with the river and nature, people have profound thoughts.

If the reason why "The Ugliest Man in the World" is successful is because of the luxurious scene arrangement, the entanglement between men and women, and the unstoppable charm of Clark Gable, then what attracts "River" is sincere thinking, the unique tenacity and depth of a real man when facing the world.

Therefore, in terms of artistic achievements, this film by Frank Boschqi is much better than Frank Capra's film.

Henry Fonda, the male lead in this movie, won the audience's extreme love for her image of a cowboy wearing a short face and a gun on her back.

In fact, as an actor, Clark Gable is the kind of all-selling, cynical and wicked prodigal charm on his body. No one can say no. But Henry Fonda does not have any romantic factors like Clark Gable. His body has the kind of geological texture that can only be ground into gravel.

For Americans, especially for Westerners, people may like the unruly and unruly body of Clark Gable, but more people still like Henry Fonda, a real man full of Western spirit!

So after the premiere, this movie immediately became the focus of debate. When people talk about "River", they will definitely compare "The Ugliest Man in the World" to make a comparison. And this comparison is very interesting.

"Frank Capra is like an old gangster in the air. Standing at the door of a tavern, he said to you: Boy, do you want me to take you to have fun? Frank Baoshaqi is like a down-and-out old cowboy whose arm was interrupted in a duel. He stood on the other side of the tavern, in his hoarse voice, tell you: Boy, do you want to be a real man? Follow me, I'll tell you."

"If Clark Gable is a brilliant diamond that shines brightly after careful crafting, then Henry Fonda is a gold mine with clear edges and edges and never been processed in the secular world! Women may like Clark Gable, but men will definitely give Henry Fonda a thumbs up!"

"If "The Ugliest Man in the World" is a saxophone in an old tavern, and the melody full of desire is blown, then "River" is a cello in the hands of a wandering artist at the streets and alleys at midnight, and the vicissitudes of the years are played!"

This comment in the "Movie Manual" is considered by everyone to be the best speech that can summarize the different characteristics of these two movies. Even Capra and Bao Shaqi thought this comment was very good. They liked this comment very much and wrote them on the movie's promotional brochure.

The audience likes the charm of "The Ugliest Man in the World", likes the magic of Clark Gable, but also likes the desolate and broad nature of "River", likes the tenacity and toughness of Henry Fonda.

This is not contradictory, and it is eager to coordinate well in an audience.

But for Hollywood filmmakers, there are obviously two standards for these two movies.

"I think the two major creative modes in Hollywood today are perfectly reflected in these two movies. Frank Capra's "The Ugliest Man in the World" is a completely representative of the business model. This movie contains all the iconic standards of Hollywood's current commercial movies, such as Clark Gable, the luxurious cocktail party, the joy between men and women, the exquisite production, etc., and Frank has no excessive cost, no luxurious banquets and attractive women, it shows the light of human nature."

"From Hollywood's development, both types are needed, and if there are many excellent movies like this, Hollywood will undoubtedly achieve its glory. But if movies are regarded as an art, Frank Capra's film obviously lost to Bao Shaqi in terms of thickness."

"The style of "River" is somewhat like Howard Hawks's "Lot Bay", but the overall style is completely different. The film's profound philosophicality makes it intriguing."

This comment from John Ford basically represents the views of the top directors and film artists in the Hollywood film industry.

I also agree with Ford's statement. Yes. Although Frank Capra's "The Ugliest Man in the World" is very popular, it can only be considered an extremely successful commercial film no matter what. It is probably impossible to dig out the connotation from it.

Frank Boshaqi's movies are much thicker and have much deeper thoughts.

However, a group of people strongly opposed Ford's view.

"I don't think these two movies are comparable at all! They belong to completely different types. The original idea of ​​this movie Frank Capradi was to shoot a commercial film, a commercial film that makes money. It is obviously unfair to compare it with an art film and measure it by the standards of an art film."

As someone who has a bit of friendship with Frank Capra, the new director of Warner Bros. Films, Porter Lee, came out to protect Capra.

In fact, what he said is not completely unreasonable.

"River" premiered, making the mid-year period a brilliant stage for the third-class film company at the beginning of the year.

Yang Mei, 20th Century Film Company is also proud of its font size.

In terms of box office, "River" had a box office of one million on the first day, and it seems that it is not impossible to surpass "The Ugliest Man in the World".

These two movies were so popular that other film companies could no longer sit still, and those who were doing film production accelerated the progress.

On May 30, the editing of Stenberg's "Blue Angel" was completed and was approved by the Codex Execution Bureau in R.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused an uproar.

This movie is the first movie in DreamWorks ever named an R-rated movie! Although it is common for movies to be put on this level in Hollywood, it is completely different when it comes to DreamWorks.

"It's definitely going to be a shocking movie." This is the most common thing Los Angeles says about the movie.

The first day of June. "Blue Angel" premiered. The location is still at DreamWorks No. 1 Cinema.

Filmmakers from major film companies attended the premiere, including Capra and Bossaqi.

When this movie was normal, Capra, who was sitting not far from me, began to take out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her face, while Bao Shaqi secretly told me that "Blue Angel" would make "The Ugliest Man in the World" dim.

The premiere was a huge success, but after the premiere, the situation was as Bao Shaqi said, and the audience's focus suddenly changed from "The Ugliest Man in the World" to "Blue Angel".

Comments on these two films also occupy all aspects of the media.

In terms of subject matter, these two movies are exactly the same. Although the stories and styles are different, the feelings left to the audience are very similar. The biggest focus that attracts the audience is lust.

But there are two reasons, which made Frank Capra hit the wall in front of Stenberg.

First, in terms of the video, Stenberg's "Blue Angel" obviously gained the upper hand. "The Ugliest Man in the World" shows the image of a wandering son. In order to show the charm of Clark Gable and the charm of a man on the screen, Frank Capra inevitably used the visual of a female star and set the main body of the audience as a female audience. This practice has achieved a good effect, that is, Clark Gable won the likes of all female audiences, but male audiences may be a little repulsive.

However, Stenberg's "Blue Angel" is completely opposite. Although the story seems to be a story of a psychological change and killing his wife, the center of the story is the swaying and charming woman. In other words, the center of this movie is Betty Davis.

The vision of "Blue Angel" is a typical male perspective. For a society today, male vision occupies a dominant force in the film industry, and for the audience, this vision is far more popular than female vision.

Therefore, the acceptance of "Blue Angel" is much higher than that of "The Ugliest Man in the World"!

The second reason is attributed to the thickness of the two movies. "The Ugliest Man in the World" is not artistically, or rarely, and has become a fatal weakness of it. However, "The Blue Angel" by Stenberg gathers the advantages of "The Ugliest Man in the World" and "River".

From the content, it can be called a commercial film. Whether it is the character setting or the commercial arrangement of movie elements, it makes the movie have a typical commercial film style. However, anyone who has studied Hollywood movies, especially those who have studied Hollywood movies, may have to think of another person while giving a thumbs up.

This person is Hitchcock!

"Blue Angels made us discover a different Stenborough. A movie made can not only make a lot of money, but also have excellent filmmakers with deep thoughts! What surprised me the most was that this movie in Stenborough actually made profound artistic explorations in the field of psychology."

"The film focuses on the professor's psychological distortion during the whole process of loving his wife but not tolerating others to enjoy her final killing of his wife. After watching it, I have to admit that the Stenberg movie has a clear psychological awareness of the German Freudian school. His discussion of the characters' mental state and psychological changes in this movie is very encouraging."

"For a long time, when we talk about psychological films, we think of Alfred Hitchcock, but after "Blue Angel", we must also think of one person. That is Stenborough! Stenborough has opened up a completely different path from Hitchcock in psychological films! This innovation is enough to make this film allow Stenborough himself to occupy a place in the history of films!"

This comment by Adam Bernstein is basically a final conclusion and speaks what people think.

Stenberg's "Blue Angel" also made Hitchcock, who always looked like a master of psychological films, had to nod in front of the media.

"A good movie, an excellent psychological movie. I appreciate Stenborough's film talent in this area. And I think his movies have inspired me a lot. Congratulations to Stenborough. Congratulations to DreamWorks."

Although Hitchcock's praise is not very high-profile. It is absolutely rare to make this guy say such words, especially in the field he is good at.

This movie by Stenberg was a great success, as I expected in advance. Not only did it win the appreciation of the theoretical community and the art festival because of its profound thought, but it also wanted to be considerable at the box office. It is a foregone conclusion that it broke the box office of "The Ugliest Man in the World" with a box office of 500 per week.

However, this movie also brought some fun to Hollywood. "The Ugliest Man in the World" made Clark Gable famous, and this guy was also given a nickname by Hollywood people "Ohio Poppy".

This nickname is perfect for Clark Gable. He is from Ohio, and is definitely a poppy that makes anyone addicted. As long as you see him for the first time, you will never be able to get rid of this man with a slight cunning smile on his face.

And because of her charming performance in "Blue Angel", and even more so because of her previous movies such as "Instinct", she also got a nickname - "The Poison of Massachusetts".

People like Betty Davis, especially men. She conquered the hearts of all men with her charming and layered performance style and made all women extremely crazy!

So, Hollywood people, especially Los Angeles audiences, began to get lost.

Under their promotion, Lockettke TV Group conducted a special interview program, which invited Betty Davis and Clark Gable to the studio for interviews.

In addition to the two of them, there were hundreds of spectators present.

This show has almost all Los Angeles people squeezed into front of the TV.

During the interview, Betty Davis and Clark Gable responded to the host and audience, which made people laugh. At the same time, people discovered that if these two people could be together, they would be a perfect match!

So much so that in

At the scene, a viewer asked Clark Gable on the spot whether he would marry. Clark Gable's answer made everyone exclaim. The guy said: "I'm willing to drink the poison from Massachusetts with a smile!"

So after the production of this show, Los Angeles people went crazy, and people hoped that these two such perfect match could come together.

After the interview, Clark Gable took the initiative to invite Betty Davis to dinner. Betty Davis seemed to have a good impression of Clark Gable and happily agreed to the request.

The next day, a photo was published on the front page of the Citizen Newspaper that you could tell you could take secretly.

In the photo, Betty Seves and Clark Gable kissed passionately across the table in a small cafe on the side of the road.

This photo made the Citizen News completely out of stock!

Clark Gable 28 and Betty Davis Gable 20, the people of the people clapped and cheered, saying, "If Gable and Miss Davis get married, then this will be the most perfect couple in the world!"

However, facing such a result, I was amused and crying.

Even if I beat me to death, I would never have thought that these two people would be able to get together.

But think about it, what is impossible in this world? Even Gary Grant can marry Julie and live a happy life after marriage. Why can't the romantic son Clark Gable fall in love with the sexy girl Betty Davis?

However, DreamWorks responded differently to this matter.

The trend of DreamWorks Film Company has always been recognized as the best among major Hollywood film companies. So in the company, people have estimated that since Cary Grant and Julie broke the rookie, the company has been completely relaxed.

Actually, I’m talking about it. It’s purely because these guys are looking for trouble. In my opinion, as long as it doesn’t affect work, falling in love is freedom.

So for Gary Grant and Julie, I never deliberately set any obstacles for them.

But this time, it's a little different.

Cary Grant and Julie are both DreamWorks. Even if they get married and have children, they have the DreamWorks brand.

But the situation between Betty Davis and Clark Gable is different.

Clark Gable is the current leader of Columbia Films. If Betty Davis marrys him, who can guarantee that she will not go there with Clark Gable.
