:: Meet John Doe :: [Great Depression]

Again, I found difficulty watching movie without subtitle, and more trouble with black and white scene, anyway i'll try my best. But, after watching this movie, all i can say is it's really boring and boring.....because even though at the first part of the movie, it may seem interesting about how they try to cheat on people by creating the faked character to be the real one and the guy who play as John Doe, really looks like the one who play "James Bond007", but at the middle f the movie, it become the real boring experience watching this movie, nothing's interesting and the movie just goes with no direction, and then at the end of the movie, everything seems to be better with the scene that made me really exited and really want to know whether John will fump off the building or not, and like i guess he did'nt and then the movie ended suddenly without any cue... that really made me soooo confused about how they wrote the script like this.

What i can see in this movie is that in the age of great depression of America, people seems to do everything to get their money like character in the movie "Ann", when she's fired, she could do everything to get her job back, even though she have to cheat on people by creating the faked character......but i think i understand her feeling because she had no choice left and at that time, people could get fired anytime, so if it's necessary, we can do anyway to survive. Next thing i want to mention is when John went to the show that at first i think i's T.V. show, but i think exactly it's radio station because i cannot see any video camera and people can can enjoy the show by radio, so i think maybe in that time, there's still no video camera or T.V. broadcasting there...but one thing that really made me so surprised is airplane, i meant the real transportable plane not a military plane, wow, seems like technology had been improved very very quickly within 19th centaury.....

:: Meet Me in St. Louis :: [Industrial Age]

Watching this movie is the real fun, because of the easy-to-understand content and many beautiful scenes in this movie make this movie very enjoyable to watch. Since the opening of the movie, I can see a lots of American life in the movie, people in that time used the classic car that looked very classic and unigue, also in that time, people still made everything by their own even the ketchup, that seems very complicated than just buying in the supermarket like in this period.

The next thing that i can see is that, in that period, it's the time for new developed transportation that is trolley, rather than the classic car and horses, it's mass transportation that made the city lives become more comfortable. Next thing i found really interesting is the way they use telephone, do they have to shout out loud while they talking on the telephone? ha ha If it's true, then it's really funny because everyone in the house would hear what you said or even your your neighbor... Another thing that made me really curious is why people in that time had to wear full uniform while they having dinner in their own house, it looks very uncomfortable.

One thing i want to mention, in this movie, i can see the old tradition of Halloween and Chritmas, Halloween seem to be the day for the kids to treat people and i just knew that children would throw powder into people face ha ha, it really remind me about Songkarn day in Thailand, and Christmas is the real family day from the past until now, watching all family members building a snowman made me really want to try building one... The movie ends with the scene of the annual fair in St. Louis that many characters have been mentioned many times, what the movie want to show is that in that period, civilization was expanded all over the continent, not just the big city like New York, it's the real age of industrialization, that many people found thier new oppotunities...
