"Sis Dimil filmed a bad movie! Really bad movie! When the film started filming, many people had deep expectations. Whether it was Hollywood filmmakers or audiences, they all had a lot of thoughts about Dimil's non-blockbuster movie after filming many blockbuster movies, but after the premiere of "Madam Satan", it was so upsetting that it was simply breathless.

"A few months ago, Frizz Lang filmed a movie called "Satan", which was a very good movie. Because of the name of the movie, many people say that Mr. Dimil's "Madam Satan" is likely to be more than Frizz Lang's one. But what I saw was a pedantic, pretentious and even chaotic movie."

"Madame Satan is like mixing a piece of pasta and chocolate and sprinkling a lot of salt, which is a cruel torture to the audience's vision, hearing and touch. In this movie, all the excellent film traditions of Sissie Dimil were consumed many years ago, with only mechanical performances and many imitation scenes. The movie has no tension, like a pool of stagnant water."

"Sis Dimil is slowly lagging behind Hollywood movies, and I think he should think about retirement."

As Sissy Dimil's former best friend, MGM's old director Strauheng criticized Dimil's "Madam Satan" extremely fiercely.

Although this may have something to do with Dimil's departure from MGM and becoming an enemy of all MGM people, I think many people agree with what Strauheng said.

"Madam Satan may have set a record, an absolute record of a big director making bad movies. I can't figure out where the talented Sissie and Dimil went. A third-rate director made a movie that was more popular than him. In the whole movie, there are a lot of elements of quick success and instant benefits. Dimil's characteristics are gone, and the more are the styles and plots he borrowed from many famous Hollywood directors in the movie. His purpose may be good, that is, to become a master of his own movie, even surpassing the original directors. But the result of his doing so is that he turned his movie into a hodgepodge, a hodgepodge in a hodgepodge."

"This is the first movie of Sissy Dimil leaving MGM and the first movie invested by Babylon Films. The importance of "Madame Satan" is not just how much fame and fortune this movie will bring to Sissy Dimil. But whether Sissy Dimil can set up a new door in Hollywood. Now it seems that the road ahead of him is not that smooth."

In his article, Liu Bieqian was so sorry for Dimil.

Major media criticized it. The public was also very unpopular with this movie. Since the premiere of the movie, no one has seen Sissy Dimil, who disappeared from the public overnight. As the owner of the Babylon Film Company and the pillar of the company, his failure is a huge blow to an emerging company like Babylon. Where will the future go? Obviously, Sissy Dimil needs to think about.

However, at least a little bit of what many people agree with. That is, Vivien Leigh's performance in this movie. No matter what the movie is like, this woman will be glorious as long as she appears on the screen.

It's gold, it always shines, Vivien Leigh is that way.

Such a movie, because of its failure, made people see the charm of this actress.

Zinerman's "The Seventh Cross" was successful, but Cissy Dimil was defeated. Many people would think that the happiest person should be Marskolov. But the facts show that Marskolov was not very happy at all. On the contrary, after hearing that Dimil's movie failed, the old man sighed and frowned.

No matter what unpleasant he had with Dimil, after all, he still had a deep relationship with Dimil. This relationship cannot collapse.

However, compared with MGM, the performance of the other film is much beyond people's expectations.

Alfred Hitchcock's "The Back Window", the movie became the most popular movie after "The Gladiator".

"A movie that is very important! It is also the pinnacle of Hitchcock's films so far! Hitchcock completely demonstrates his master-level skills. There is no burden on the whole movie, just like a leopard's tail is clean and powerful!"

"The most admirable thing about this movie is that there is only a small performance space in the movie, two rooms and one yard, just like a stage play. This is an unprecedented challenge for both actors and directors. Spending an hour and a half in such a few scenes not only requires the excitement of the shots, but also requires artistic expression. This requirement is probably not many people in Hollywood can complete it."

"But Hitchcock did it. In "The Back Window", every shot is so perfect. Hitchcock not only uses the depth of field lens perfectly, but also uses his flowing scenes to make the movie's pictures extremely plump."

"This is a masterpiece and will definitely be a classic. We want to thank Hitchcock for setting an example for Hollywood movies!"

King Vidor, who is very influential in Hollywood, likes Hitchcock's movie very much, and there are countless people like him.

Senate, John Houston, William Wheeler, Fritz Lang, etc., many filmmakers praised this movie, and even when I was interviewed by Los Angeles 1, I praised Hitchcock's movie.

This is indeed a masterpiece, an indisputable masterpiece.

It is worth mentioning that in Hitchcock's "The Back Window", the two starring actors Lawrence Oliver and Claude Kowlbai, are the two actors who have the strength they have, which can completely stand among the top Hollywood actors, but because the movies they have participated in in recent years have not fully demonstrated their charm, their influence has been greatly reduced.

This time it was different. Hitchcock's "The Back Window" discovered the charm of both of them. In the movie, Lawrence Oliver, sitting in a wheelchair, appeared in the image of a mature old man, handsome and very interesting. Claude Caulbai's image in the movie made countless men dream of.

Hitchcock has unique features in selecting actors, Lawrence Oliver and Claude Kowlbai are the biggest contributors to the success of "The Back Window".

The success of "The Back Window" made Lei Dianhua Film Company go crazy. Although he was severely punished for hiding wine by the company not long ago, the success of "The Back Window" swept away Lei Dianhua's haze.

From 1930 to the present, Leidianhua Film Company is definitely the most popular company among major Hollywood film companies after DreamWorks. This is a world of difference from being covered in dust a year ago.

After investing in two movies, Chaplin Land's "City Light" was highly praised. Hitchcock Land's "Back Window" is also called a classic. Leidianhua Film Company not only earned a large amount of box office, but also gained a huge reputation, which can be regarded as having a good face.

The Hollywood mid-year movie craze ended here, and the result was surprising.

Major film companies have basically achieved results, except for Babylon in Dimil, the failure of "Madam Satan" has left the newly established film company in a storm. If Dimil does not take out some decent things and wait for the end of the film company, there is only one. That is bankruptcy.

Lei Dianhua Film Company was full of joy and ambition. Carrey Rockefeller said at the celebration meeting that 1930 will be the year of the revival of Lei Dianhua. Lei Dianhua not only needs to restore its glory for a long time, but also create new and greater achievements.

What is interesting is that Lei Dinghua is booming, but in the eyes of Hollywood, due to the success of the two movies, the internal strife between Lei Dinghua is becoming more and more intense.

Chaplin and Hitchcock are simply incompatible with water and fire. When Chaplin was in power, Hitchcock did not compete with Chaplin. This fat man in England stayed in the nursing home for so long and waited for the opportunity to turn over. Chaplin became the absolute controller of Thunderbolt Hua Film Company and consolidated his position with "City Light". The success of Hitchcock's "Back Window" also restored his authority in the company again. Carrey Rockefeller is a typical person who falls with the wind. Basically, he will be biased towards whoever succeeds. After Chaplin's "City Light" succeeds, he appointed Chaplin as director, with full authority.

He is responsible for film production, and he is more than ten thousand people. However, after Hitchcock's "The Back Window" was successful, Carrey Rockefeller was in trouble. Hitchcock asked him for the same power, and if Carrey Rockefeller did not agree to him, he would transfer to another film company. Carrey Rockefeller naturally could not let Hitchcock go, so he had to give Hitchcock a position as director. In this way, Leidianhua Film Company has two directors, and these two directors divide the huge Leidianhua into two, each with supporters and crew. Leidianhua Film Company is in such a lively struggle.

"Thunder Dinghua Film Company was successful because of Chaplin and Hitchcock, and it must have ended due to the internal strife between these two people." When Edwin Porter, the Hollywood film leader, said such a sentence in an interview with a reporter, I don't know how Carrey Rockefeller would feel after hearing it.

Hollywood's development can be considered booming, but by July, the originally good situation in the United States became a little out of control.

In the first half of 1930, crops in the United States were generally poor. At the end of 1929, due to the economic crisis, many farmers used the food in the farm as fuel, so there was no large grain reserves in the United States, so famine began to spread.

At the beginning, there were only a few states, but as time passed, more and more famines occurred. By the middle of the year, famine had spread across the country. This situation was noticed when Hoover was alive. At that time, Hoover took measures to take out the country's strategic food reserves and at the same time began to vigorously support the development of agricultural land. Many food land subsidies were formulated for farmers and encouraged them to have a variety of food.

Hoover's measures are very good, greatly arousing the enthusiasm of farmers. Especially when farmers see that food shortages across the country have caused the price of food to rise steadily, many of them regret why they burned all the grain crops.

Farmers across the country are growing food, but there is one problem that is insurmountable, that is: grain has a growth cycle, and it is impossible to plant it today and eat it tomorrow. A nationwide bumper harvest will have to wait at least until the first half of the earth in 1931. Then the question that Americans need to think about is: What should we eat when the grain has not achieved a bumper harvest?

Without food and food, society will be in chaos, especially for those at the bottom of society. They have wives and children to support them, and they cannot let themselves starve to death. Before they starve to death, they will steal, rob, and even cause riots.

From April to June, two months later, there were at least one or two hundred riots in large and small areas across the country. Although these riots were finally suppressed, the people could arouse rage again at any time, just like volcanoes on the ground that were about to erupt.

The new policy legacy left by Hoover is facing a huge test.

Logically speaking, the various policies of the new policy can make the United States go formal, but this sudden famine has brought the new policy to the edge of the cliff. If people can't eat enough, any other policy will be useless.

In this case, everyone stared at the federal government and President Rutman, who had just issued a ban on alcohol, which made the people very dissatisfied.

Such a severe moment is when the federal government needs to stand up and the president must have a solution.

Brian Rutman stood up, but the first thing the president did made many people angry.

Rutman launched a TV speech, in which he did not mention how to resolve the famine, but praised his prohibition.

"Comrades, many people are not convinced by the prosecution of alcohol, but the facts prove my wisdom. You all know that brewing wine requires a lot of food. If I don't prosecute alcohol in advance, a large amount of wine will flood in the United States, and that's all food! In this way, isn't the famine more serious? Americans should thank me! Thanks for such a policy."

Rutman's words made the people vomit blood collectively. After watching his speech, Coolidge jumped up and pointed at the TV and scolded Rutman for being a mess.

Originally, most of the American private wine was imported from Europe, and even if food wasted, it was a waste of people from Europe. Moreover, alcohol bans and famine were completely unrelated to things. Rutman put gilds on his face when Americans were about to starve to death and said such sarcastic words, which seemed to the public as a gloating.

"Andre, the Republican regime will hit him! The absolute advantage that our Republican Party has had since the founding of the United States will probably be lost in the hands of this guy!" Coolidge gritted his teeth at Rutman.

Rutman's speech immediately caused an uproar among the American people. When Hoover died, Rutman inherited the position of president because Hoover's lofty prestige among the people made the people particularly affectionate about his successor Rutman. However, since the successor's successor has done a series of things that have been greatly disappointed. Since the prosecution of alcohol, the people have complained about Rutman. Now this guy has performed like a clown, which is really intolerable.

Many media immediately criticized and confronted Rutman, the most intense of which was definitely the Democratic Party’s mouthpiece, The New York Times.

"Brian Rutman should not be the president of the United States, he should be a pastor! When Americans are about to starve to death, he still misses his own prohibition. Having such a president is simply a tragedy for all of us Americans!"

As soon as such remarks appeared in the New York Times, they immediately set off a national wave of opposition to Rutman. The New York Times itself has a huge influence, and Rutman's behavior has aroused public outrage. Therefore, not only did the Democratic media in political views launch a fierce attack on Rutman, but even many media that originally supported the Republican Party could not tolerate Rutman's actions and then criticized them.

Rutman was covered in dirt overnight and was in a mess.

"Andre, I think there must be Democrats in the middle." Coolidge watched the report on TV, frowning.

I agree with his words.

Although Rutman did not think about it, there was no need for the national media to slam this time. It was the New York Times that played the fuse, and it was their shouts that made the situation in the United States even more chaotic.

As Franklin Roosevelt is so smart, he will never fail to seize this opportunity.

If I guess correctly, the New York Times did this. It must have been this guy who secretly instructed him.

"Andre, I'm in trouble now. Rutman is a bastard. He met such a shrewd opponent again. The Republican Party will capsize!" Coolidge was about to cry without tears. He turned his face and looked at me and said, "At this time, I can only look at you. Only you can save the Republican Party and save the United States!"

Coolidge's dialect made me not know what to say.

The sudden national famine, coupled with Rutman's idiot-like behavior, made the Republican Party be pushed to the forefront and was in a worrying situation. At this time, Coolidge handed over the task of saving the United States and the Republican Party. In my opinion, he looked down on me too much.

After all, I am just a moviemaker, not God. If I had let food grow on American soil overnight, I would have been no longer in Hollywood.

"Calvin, you really look down on me. What can I do?" I gave Coolidge a blank look.

Coolidge spread his hands and said, "Andre, when Hoover was alive, although Hoover was sometimes wrong, Hoover was essentially more concerned about the suffering of ordinary Americans than anyone else. He is not a sweet talker, nor does he want to win a reputation for himself. What he wants to do is to let the people live a good life and make the people benefit. So I feel relieved that he is the president, but it is actually a blessing for the people, because his president is a person who cares about the people's welfare for the people."

"But now, in the political arena of the United States, none of the hypocritical politicians pay attention to the people's behavior. Franklin Roosevelt is an ambitious man. He values ​​power and his own reputation. For this, let alone not pay attention to the interests of the people, he will do it even if you let him create a massacre of the people!" Coolidge's voice became very angry.

I believe what he said. In history, Roosevelt had done such a thing. He had clearly known the Japanese's plan to attack Pearl Harbor, but he turned a deaf ear to achieve his goals. In a fight, countless American soldiers died and suffered heavy losses.

At this time, the United States was unfortunate. The people lived in hunger and were in danger. It was despicable that this guy was able to use this disaster to seek benefits for himself.

If you are a person with a little conscience, at least at this time, you should abandon your political views and work together.

"Brian Rutman is an honest man. He has been working diligently behind others all his life, but since he became president, he has changed a little. He used to work behind others' butts all his life, but now he has found that he has become the boss. His inner satisfaction and vanity have expanded rapidly. Whether it is good or not, he has to do something to let the public see his greatness and let the public know that he is the president of the United States. People with such thoughts will definitely cause a big disaster!"

When Coolidge mentions Brian Rutman, his brain hurts.

"The country is in chaos, and the people are suffering. Andre. We can ignore Franklin Roosevelt, or Rutman. We can let them make trouble and live a good life. But in this way, the people are suffering." Coolidge's voice choked up.

He has been refusing to be president for many years, but he is still determined to do this relationship with the United States and the people.

I sighed and said, "Calvin, of course I know what you said, and I want to do something. But I am just a moviemaker, not God. What can you do to solve such a big famine?"

Coolidge looked at me and shook his head helplessly.

"Andre, things are done by humans. I think we can help Rutman like we did when she helped Herbert and pulled him. Otherwise, things would be really bad." Coolidge said in a heavy tone.

When I heard him say this, I immediately laughed.

After so many things, I have no good impression of Brian Rutman anymore. I don’t want to help him emotionally, but who has made him related to the life and death of the Republican Party, and who has made him related to the interests of thousands of people.

"Calvin, I can do it as you ask, but what I'm worried about is that Brian Rutmann is not Herbert. Let's help him, will he appreciate the love?"

My words made Coolidge's face darker, which was exactly what he was worried about.

"Let's see if you do it. Let's see if you do it." Coolidge breathed a sigh of relief.

The great famine that broke out in China, as well as the parades and riots caused by the great famine, made the federal government a little panic, and Rutmann, who was attacked by the people, was also panicked.

Just when these guys were in vain, the outbreak of something was adding fuel to the fire.
