Humoresque (1946)
Why this Boray guy always so angry?
27 April 2024
A great violinist would be so angry? He seems to hate everything in front of him, around him. He doesn't seem to be kind toward anybody. And he is very rude to his mother, ignores his father and his brother and sister. A guy so self-centered. Treating his only friend, using him as his violin. When he becomes rich, the first thing is to get a luxurious apartment for himself. He seems to be always angry, unhappy, and cynical to other people. There is love; if there is passion in him, but sorry, I fail to see it. A typical selfish person. And I just believe a person who loves music, loves all those beautiful, romantic, profound and passionate violin concertos would have such rude, cold, ungrateful personality. People like him wouldn't be to interpret those great music.

The script has create a very unlikely great violinist, just impossible. The woman who sponsors him at first for his music, then falls in love with him is just so unreal and impossible. When he said he loves her, there's no passion, no real feeling, just like the move dialogue that written and prepared for him to recite from his mouth. His face is so cold, no feeling at all. So when you watch the movie, you just feel like watching a Movie.

There are some very smart even wise-cracking dialogue in this movie, like this movie title: Humoresque, more like a fraud and fake painting, look quite real but in fact not at all. The chain-smoking scenes, smart-ass talking dialogue, the hateful looks of the bartender, the helpless husband, the overly protective mother, the mindless father, the grocery store on the street level first floor in New York.

"Why the lollipops look so small?" "Because the day has become shorter"

And I just quit watching this heartless and looked unreal movie at last five minutes left. The only thing worth of it is the great music, not the characters in it.
