"Miller's Crossroads" is a noir hero movie dressed in a gangster coat. The beginning of the film borrows from the opening scene of the movie "The Godfather", the dialogue between the characters, the hand throwing ice into the cup, etc. It highlights Tom's position as the right-hand man of the gang boss, and reveals the complex relationships that run through the film. But the most impressive thing in the film is the hat Tom wore and the soundtrack interspersed with it. The hat is a very flexible prop in the film. It not only highlights the "coolness" of the gangster, but also uses the hat to express the character's situation. For example, the hat tumbling at the intersection of Miller expresses Tom's hesitation. Mentality. The film soundtrack created by Carter Bulville is an indispensable creator of powerful music space. Although the film is full of violent killing scenes, with the excellent soundtrack, it shows a touch of sadness. The layering of the film is very expressive. The forest, which is an important scene of the film, is also beautiful and charming under the photographer's lens

Early Works of the Coen Brothers. The more difficult to understand hat is an intentional implication that I have to explore. Tom makes an absolute at the crossroads of love and loyalty. But I think when you can't cover it, don't promise too many women. Otherwise, you will often be beaten badly.

This film tells about a series of dirty things in a small town where police and bandit politicians hang on shoulders . A relatively failed gangster film, the camera is still good, the actors act well, but it can't hide this bad story
