Delicious Historical RPF
I only read from the female protagonist's perspective. I especially love niche, lesser-known historical fandom stories with meticulous research, from all over the world and across time periods~ There's a limit on how many five-star ratings I can give, so both four-star and five-star stories are excellent.

When I first read this article, it was purely for Hedy Lamarr, who coexists with beauty and wisdom but did not get a matching ending. I've seen a few Heidi movies, and to be honest, her acting skills are really average. Although I can't say that she relies on her appearance to make a living, it's at least 60%. How to change her fate from birth? From father's death? From the day the movie was shot? From the eve of your first marriage? Escape from? The nodes of destiny are full of unknowns. As a person in the future who knows the past, changing the past always has infinite temptation. In any novel such as time travel and rebirth, whether it is about preparing for a rainy day or making up for regrets, it always begins before or after a major event. The beginning of "The Pale Star of Samaria" is indeed an ordinary "Oneday", theordinarydayinherpainfulbrightcareerwithco nfusion and loss, at this time Rama, or Harriet Keesler, was like a traveler standing in the desert under the scorching sun, moving forward or backward, left or right, not a grain of sand pointing south, not a star pointing north. She didn't know whether Richard's appearance was an oasis or a mirage, but she had already made up her mind. There is no follow-up plot that unfolds in Shuangwen, which is what really makes me like this article. In a normal Jinjiang article, when Richard takes Harriet away, it will be a small climax of the whole article, but the author did not, and passed this paragraph lightly, which feels very anti-climax. There has never been a big heroine. No matter how you look at it, Harriet doesn't want to be a big heroine. Even though Richard helped her leave, fell in love with her and gave her a place to stay, the contradictory fate itself is not love, but the soul. Richard saved her body and love, but only she can save her own soul. "The Pale Star of Samaria" ends with Harriet facing the broken Richard with determination. The future for her is no longer a fog of unknown difficulties, but a challenge that has yet to be solved. After all, "tomorrow, is another day". I was pleasantly surprised that the character of Richard is not a one-sided love object of the heroine. The classification of male protagonists and female protagonists, and the obvious neglect of one party in most of the novels, can make readers believe that he/she is worthy of love and is the "one" of destiny. My favorite chapters in the whole text are "Autumn Valley Bells" and "The Rain of Destruction". Taken individually, they are both high-quality independent works. I have been repeated to the point that I can't find new words to praise the beauty of the language and writing. This is especially true in these two chapters. Even if there is no clear story line, it is a pleasure to just appreciate the author's words. When I originally finished the book, I decided to re-read it for a while before writing a review of the full text. Unexpectedly, I didn't think of writing it until today when I saw the author's new article was finally published. I didn't read it a second time, thinking that I would have to read it again before I could write it. As a result, although I can't remember some of the plot, I can still remember the whole thing. I still feel the joy of reading a good article that is not a quick meal. I hope everyone can wait patiently for the update when reading the author's new article "The Machine Is Exhausted". The quality will definitely not disappoint you.
I listened to tv in black and white and couldn't fall asleep. My mind was filled with these beauties from the golden age of Hollywood.
Very well written drama style
My wife's writing doesn't look like Jinjiang's haha-like literary works!
The translation of Scarlett and Rhett into "Scarlett Hao" and "Rhett Butler" is very reminiscent of watching translated films back in the day. It's very retro. I like this detail~
"Screen Crimes" is also very good. Although you said it was an "irrational way of writing to vent your emotions," the bright and broken emotional descriptions in that book are sharp-edged and deeply touching. I didn't quite understand the name of this book when I first saw it, but later I realized that stars with weak light visible to the naked eye may be burning violently hundreds of light years away. I can't think of a more novel way to praise the structure and writing style of this book. If I can think of another way in the future, I will continue to praise it. The most worth mentioning is that in the later part of this book, each chapter can be taken apart and read. Even if you don't know the cause and effect, it is still an excellent short story. I read these three chapters: The Bells of Autumn Valley, Maple Leaf Streetcar, and Rain of Destruction over and over again. Monroe and his "Caligula", this description makes my heart move.
Although the Golden Age of Hollywood was dazzling, it was also very scary. There are no autobiographies or interviews with superstars. The heroine finally left. I hope she will continue to do her favorite scientific research.
This chapter is really well written, and it is the best chapter in the entire article so far. Ten thousand words, wow, I love it so much. The whole chapter reads so smoothly, like a short story. Even if you don't read other serials, just reading this chapter is extremely excellent. I read it carefully for two days, and the setting of Munroe's character is really brilliant. Even without Richard, even if Harriet is mentally disordered, there will still be people who fall in love with her soul under the pain. How can she be ordinary? I think, just from reading the article, I feel that although many fans love the radiant Harriet Keesler, the relationship between this star image and Harriet herself is not superficial or superficial. Her pain created her radiance, and her radiance gave her pain. The two things are entangled and cannot be separated. Ah, the writing is really too high.
I originally clicked in with the mentality of reading "American Entertainment Articles", expecting to see a comedy love story about the film industry similar to "Singin' in the Rain", but after looking at it, I found that the entertainment industry did not account for a heavy part, but the plot after leaving Hollywood was the focus. It felt like I thought "Titanic" would have a fairy tale happy ending, but the ship sank and the hero died... But the movie took a turn and started to tell the story of Ruth's wonderful life after she disembarked from the ship. It feels really good and I love stories like this that break the mold and are unexpected. Today, when Internet articles are tagged, most articles on the website can guess the plot and ending just by looking at the title. To be honest, it is very boring to read too many articles. Thank you to the author for not taking the usual path and giving me a different reading experience.
Reading this article, I saw the heroine Hyde's process of growing up and reconciling with herself. Her collapse and pain are hidden in the gentle or extravagant scenes at the beginning. She is constantly whipped by reality, denied by the superiors, and tortured both physically and mentally. Fortunately, she saves herself step by step. Of course, it is undeniable that the male protagonist supports her like a floating cloud, but I think the most core thing is the female protagonist Xiangsheng's belief. The scene when Richard was transferred was also quite subtle. Hyde gave up relying on others under the forced situation, carried out in-depth self-construction, and was even able to appease the male protagonist later on. This plot instantly reminds me of Rhett White sending Scarlett to join the army midway and Scarlett can only carry Tara by herself. They all give up the heroic narrative of being saved at the moment of painful transformation for women, allowing them to witness their own value and love it. The only shortcoming is probably that the author's imagination needs to be expanded in the later part of the article 🐶 I feel that since Heidi's talent can come up with frequency hopping technology, there should be more research in this area, and the male protagonist, as a scientific research boss, should have some connections to prevent her invention from being unknown after decades? But that's not the point hh
