Film interpretation
Based on Waller's novel of the same name, "The Dream of the Covered Bridge" can be said to be very simple, and it is about the emotional entanglement of a middle-aged man inside and outside the city. The film is characterized by its exploration of extramarital affairs and the embodiment of the psychological feelings of Chinese people. Delicately reveals the ethical value orientation and emotional balance concept of middle-aged people. Widely concerned by the public and critics, it is a deep social ethics film.
"The Dream of the Covered Bridge" arranges a very clear series: a wandering cowboy, a farmer's wife who has been forgotten for a long time, spent 4 days in a chance encounter that made love burn. This is a typical extramarital affair, and one of the words that morality always says about extramarital affairs is "no", but the author does not have to touch the morality in people's minds head-on, but uses sexy charm to infect morality. He first described this extramarital affair beautifully. Then a very clever ending is designed: the heroine in order not to hurt her husband and children. He would rather give up love and suffer alone; the hero could have asked his heart to accompany him to the end of the world, but he thought that "love is respect; from then on a person wanders alone and ends his life with melancholy." In this way, the author cleverly frees the protagonist from the moral shackles they should bear with the sacrifices they make with their emotions.
The emotional performance of the characters in the film is very delicate, and after the right, you will find that it not only shows an extramarital affair, but more importantly, it shows the ethical value of middle-aged people. Is it to choose love, or to choose responsibility for the family?
The outstanding artistic performance of "The Dream of the Covered Bridge" has aroused the feeling that many middle-aged people have also made them serious about her. Clint Easter and Meryl Strie, veteran actors in the film, are very good at spring appearance, and their love is very good, adding endless charm to the film. Old hemp bridge. Lonely journey. Painting the heart of the middle-aged man close, knocking out the sparks of the soul that has been burned I have reached the eternal destination. This unenlightenable love is inseparable from the bondage of the world. Year after year of longing, wandering and hurting wandering feelings are unforgettable, and the water of the miserable Lunke is no more.
"The Dream of the Covered Bridge" depicts a classic Love of the Plain style to us. Reproducing a real emotional entanglement, it is a strong socialization and localization of the masterpiece, and the reason why "MaqiaoZaku" makes people is probably that it machines one of the essential problems of love, people's attitudes towards sex. In the film, impulsive and romantic sex has a strong impact on traditional concepts, and the heroine finally abandons this estrus and is willing to relive this love in the future qiantan life, all of which tells a true god and is not in heat. Everyone cannot live in love privately just for themselves: life is not ordinary, and all the bright colors and highlights are just the points in it, which are within reach.

Klingjing Eastwood
As long as Clint Eastwood's name is on the screen, it can cause people to move, and such movie stars are rare. Even less well known is that Eastwood is also a producer and director, setting impressive success stories in these areas. However, it was not until the filming of "Can't" in other countries won the Oscar for best director, it was known to people.
Eastwood was born on May 31, 1930 in the Old Hills of the United States, and has worked as a logger, gas station man, and others. In the mid-1950s, he came to Good Vegetable Dock to seek development. After arriving at Good Vegetable Dock, Eastwood first ran a dragon at the end of several films shot by Universal Pictures, and he flew a plane to burn the giant spider with suspected gasoline. He then became famous for his performance in the TV series "Skin". However, what really made him famous from an early age were three Italian Westerns directed by Sergio Onne: 1964's "For a Few Dollars," 1965's "For a Few Dollars," and 1966's "Good, Evil, Ugly."
After returning to the United States, Eastwood founded his own production company, Malpasso Productions, and between the late 1960s and the early 1970s, he created a series of characters and broadened the relatively narrow lines, most notably his 1971 film Detective Harry. Eastwood has also directed several popular films, including "Soul in the Mist", "The Prodigal Son of the Wilderness", "Western Enforcer" and "Tough Guy Billy". In 1993, he won the Academy Award for Best Director for his outstanding performance in "Unforgivable".
In the same year, Eastwood released another wonderful film, "Fire Line Blocking". In 1995, Eastwood adapted the then best-selling novel "The Bridge Dream" into a screenplay and put it on the screen, and he himself played a role in the film, working with Merrill Streep to perform a wonderful rivalry scene. He not only directed and starred in the film himself, but was also the producer of the film.
If anyone doubts Eastwood's abilities because of the defeat of Masterpieces of Blood, he will be able to do it again when his film based on the best-selling novel "River of Sacred Pines" comes out in late 200. "River of the Gods" is considered by many critics and audiences to be Eastwood's best work to date. The film ponders the nature of power and revenge, and the style is gray. Director Eastwood's confident vision, the script on Dennis Han's original book, and the infectious performances of the three stars made the film mesmerizing the audience.
Melsley. Streep
Among the female stars of Goodwood, Meryl Streep is not pretty, but is undoubtedly one of the most successful actors in the American film industry. A good actor is even more fortunate. Meryl Streep, who was nominated for Best Supporting Actress for Adapted Screenplay, has written history at the Oscars, whether she finally holds the award or not. With a total of 13 nominations, he broke the record of 12 nominations originally held by Catherine Hepburn, becoming the most Oscar-nominated movie star in history.
Streep was first nominated for an Oscar when tiger man was nominated for best supporting actress in 1978, and the following year he took the Oscar for best supporting actress with "The Cromers."
In 1981, "The French Lieutenant's Woman" made Streep "advanced" to the Oscar for Best Actress
It was also until "Sophie's Choice" in 1982 that Di Ru became an Oscar queen and then successively challenged the Oscar for Best Actress with "The Skelwood Incident" in 1983, "Out of Africa" in 1985, "Aster Grass" in 1987, "Crying in the Night" in 1988, "Postcard from the Side" in 1990, "Dream on the Bridge" in 1995, "Priceless Affection" in 1998, and "Moving My Heart" in 1999, but they did not continue to win awards.
In the past, in films such as "The Skelwood Incident", "Crying in the Dark Night" and "Strings Move My Heart", Streep has long established a good reputation for interpreting real female characters, and in "Adapted Screenplay", she played the female writer Su Shu Orleans, and once again showed the strength of "One Hundred Days Later" and took away the Golden Globe Award for Most Supporting Actress.
