Review of Imitation of Life (1959) by George D — 10 Aug 2010
What a great Movie a superb Melodrama on both sides totally beautiful and deeply touching and dramatic I even burst out into Tears the Story is so tragic. It shows how deep the Racism stick on in the 50's that this Girl deny their Mother and want to be white on All Price and she doing this not without a Reason when the White People get Knowledge of their Ancestry they freak out like she is a Monster or Something her Boyfriend even beat their up brutality which was a really disturbing Scene and she loses every Job it shines a Bad Light on the White American Society but it shows also that not all Whites were that Way as the Example of the Actress who don't see a Differce between the Members of their Family also it critize the Way in Show Business of Giving Job to the People they skrew it opens Ways but it is rotten I don't knew that this so extremly in the Theatre Scene but it is so in the Film Scene too best Example Rainer Werner Fassbinder who mostly use the Actors he was favourizing in Bed and the most Directors like his Way I think one of the few Exception's is Clint Eastwood and ironicly Russ Meyer who don't allow anyone to fuck while a Film Production to increase the Desire im curious Douglas Sirk thought about this and it shows a Bad Light of the Gender of Men and it's true many Men ecspially "Sucessfull" Men are such Animals who reduce Women into a Piece of Meat but also it shows that not all Men are this Way like the Men the Acress and her Daugther fell in Love with and me and there is the Next Point that Daugther fall in Love with the Boyfriend of her Mother why Young Girls fell so much in Love and ecspecially with Men they doesen't can become and because of that Men broken lot of Hearts without Intention.
