Classic films, people can't get tired of watching.

In fact, it was not deliberately searched, inadvertently clicked to see, only to find out very good.

This old film La Traviata, shot in 1936, is still black and white. However, there is a feeling of amazement when you look at it. In particular, the lead actor Greta Garbo almost played the traviata Margaret. Moreover, the actor's dialogue is very exciting. It seems that every sentence is worth chewing carefully.

(i)

Friends who like literature, many people may have seen the novel "La Traviata" written by Dumas. The movie is wonderful, and I think the novel should be more brilliant.

It is said that this novel is the first work in the history of French literature to feature a courtesan flower as the protagonist. It is also a classic novel that has never faded.

It can be seen that writers are full of affection to create, and naturally related to the writer's personal experience.

Thus, a poignant love story, a lamentable woman, was born in the history of literature.

The director is George Cook, a Native of New York, USA. Jewish film director. He died in 1983, but the films he made still have a strong vitality.

In addition to the director, the focus is on Greta Garbo, which used to be a shining name in the history of cinema.

She is a Swede and was born in Stockholm. Is a Swedish Hollywood star.

She has many works, such as "Torrent", "Anna Christie", "Anna Karenina", "Two-Faced Woman" and so on.

Although she died of pneumonia at the age of 85, she lived forever in the film in another form.

I haven't seen any other movies she starred in. However, this "La Traviata" alone is enough for us post-scholars to chew and taste.

In this film, the most beautiful or wonderful years of Margaret's life are intercepted to show the social reality of the time, the relationship between people and the touching love between Traviata and Armand.

When a beautiful woman, circling between two men, heralds the beginning of a "good play".

At the beginning of the movie, it explains why Margaret, the traviata, is called "Traviata".

Because, she is extremely fond of camellias. There is always a camellia pinned to the body.

At the same time, it also explained her consumption habits. Same as the girls now. Loved hats, loved bags, loved nice clothes.

Almost, it is an uncontrolled purchase.

So, who pays? It was the men or gentlemen behind her.

In search of a long-term "meal ticket", she went to the theater to "make an appointment" with Baron Valville. As a result, the yin and yang are mistaken, and they meet a young and handsome handsome man Armand.

Baron Valville, rich. Good at making a scene. Love is nothing more than an exchange of benefits.

Armand, handsome. Less money. It is true love that is given.

But Traviata, she needs money. No money, no way to live. It also happens that true love is needed, and without love, there is no way to live.

Thus, the "good drama" began.

In this world, the truth of ancient times, fish and bear paws cannot be combined.

Thus, tragedy inevitably arose.

In this world, everyone has their own area of expertise. Some people are good at writing poetry. Some people like to draw. Some people can sing and dance. Some people are good at interpersonal communication.

Margaret, the Traviata, was known as the social star of the time. He is extremely good at interpersonal communication.

There is a couplet in "Dream of the Red Chamber": "Everything is insightful and learned, and the cultivation of human feelings is the article.".

Margaret, the traviata, can be said to be familiar with this way. She spent a large sum of money on the Baron, but she dated Armand. In our current parlance, the wind rating is poor.

Actor Garbo, almost put around traviata between two men, playing a vivid appearance. The character's expression, eyebrows, movements, words, laughter. They all seem to have become the "elements" that drive the story forward.

Valvell didn't care about money, but he cared about Margaret's loyalty to him.

Armand didn't care about Margaret's reputation, he just blindly pulled out his true heart to love, and he loved herself.

When Margaret promised Armand to go on vacation in the countryside. The Baron was very angry and gave Margaret a huge amount of money, and he was also angry and gave her a slap.

In the countryside, Margaret and Armand had a brief happy time. In fact, Armand has always been tormented by jealousy, jealous of Margaret's relationship with the Duke.

The wind rating is too bad, has nothing to do with others, and no one cares. As long as Margaret and Armand are true love, no one can stop them.

But Armand's old father was not pleased. His children, still young and still had a great future, did not want his son's future to be ruined by a charming woman.

To this end, he made a strategy of "moving the tiger away from the mountain". In Armand's absence, he went to talk to Margaret. The point of the conversation was to hope that she would leave her son.

Margaret weighed it up and tearfully agreed.

When she loves him, she will make concessions for love. When she rejected him, her heart was broken. She left in pain and went to find the Baron.

In Armand's view, she just loves money, jewelry, and costumes.

Both men, both injured. Both hearts were crushed by reality.

Meet again at the casino. The Baron and Armand gambled. Armand wins. Armand, who had won the bet, took a large amount of money and threw it in the face of Margaret, the traviata, in front of everyone. And loudly humiliate her. He also angrily announced a duel with the Baron.

This is the climactic part of the story, life and death are uncertain. Perhaps, the biggest worry is not the audience, but Margaret. She kindly wrote a letter to Armand, which Armand refused. The duel took place as scheduled.

The unbeknownst to Armand resented Margaret. Margaret, also very aggrieved, she also had to. In the duel, though, the person she worries most about is Armand.

As a result, in the end, the Baron was injured. Armand went away to avoid the front.

The wounded Baron, who refused to see Margaret again, also refused to pay various fees.

Margaret, who had been devastated both mentally and financially, was sick, a lung disease. Before, she had been sick, and this time it was more serious. Again, with no income, she lived by selling her various jewelry.

Most of her former friends have stayed away. Those who come are asking for money, how much can they take, and never empty-handed. There are more icing on the cake, and fewer charcoal in the snow.

Six months later, Margaret fell terminally ill.

Armand, back in Paris.

Saw Margaret for the last time. Knowing the truth, he burst into tears, but he could no longer see Margaret's smile.

The incense dissipates the jade damage, and a piece of loess hides the wind flow.

Even if it is a black-and-white movie, it is very comfortable to watch. The two male protagonists also portray their respective roles fully and vividly. Coupled with Garbo's wonderful performances and the assistance of some other characters, it has become a classic in the history of cinema.

Such a classic movie, if you have not seen it, you cannot say that you are a qualified literary and artistic youth.
