      "Angel of Murder" Justice will always come, just maybe greatly reduced

      I prefer another name. The Killing Angel movie has a moderate degree of relaxation, and as it continues to advance, the huge psychological gap in emotion, but gradually, like a beam of light in the night, faint but warm enough to start, dim and messy, dark and creepy atmosphere , reflected to the protagonist, lonely and melancholy, persistent and stern, maybe just believed her sins, but in the memories, warm colors, happy family, and so many so-called big people in a trance, talking freely,...

      This Dutch sensational 'Angel of Killing' is real

      Paul van der Oster's "Angel of Murder" (2015), represented the Netherlands in the 2015 Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

      The film is based on a sensational true event in the Netherlands, in which female nurse Lucia was sentenced to life in prison by a court in The Hague after she was accused of murdering seven patients and attempting to murder three others between 1997 and 2001. After eight years, the nurse overturned the charges against him,...

      Please give more of your warmth to Lucia

      The reason why I gave it five stars is because this film made me clearly see the heroine Lucia struggling and yearning for beauty.


      Lucia is a nurse who loves her children and lives alone, just like she told the female prosecutor later: If you wear a short skirt, others will call you a prostitute; if you don't speak, others will call you difficult to get along with and arrogant; if you talk too much, it's still your fault, and someone will accuse you. The implication is that you...

      It's not just nurses who are accused




              "The Defendant Nurse" was the 2014 seeded contestant representing the Netherlands for the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar. As far as my personal viewing experience is concerned, the winners of the best foreign language film at the Oscars in recent years generally have the following commonalities: they have their own set of distinctive lens language; tell a "rebellious" story full of cultural reflection; There is a personal presentation of the social environment of the...

      a hapless nurse

      On Weibo, I saw someone redirected to the viewing address, and found out that it was a blockbuster film from the Netherlands this year for the Olympic bid, so I simply took it out and took a look. It's just a pity, it's a bad thing in the hospital again.
      Lucia is a silent, loving, and aloof nurse. She is very diligent in her work, but due to her silent personality and personal reasons, she has never been able to maintain a good relationship with her colleagues. --When encountering...

      Such a profound subject should have been shot more powerfully, but except for a few places that are still acceptable, it has become lukewarm, and it is well deserved that it did not make it into the final top 5 of the Oscar for best foreign language...

      It is estimated that this kind of subject matter is not rare even for Koreans themselves, unjust cases, judicial loopholes, and system drawbacks. . . This film has deliberately sharpened its sharp points, but the overall is more concise, and the emotional impact it brings is just...

      Calmly and restrainedly, it restores an unjust case under bureaucratic corruption, without exaggerating and sensationalizing. The emotion hits the bottom of my heart but stops abruptly. The height and depth of the film are limited to...

      The style is very concise and lively. It's a pity that I couldn't explore it in more depth, but it's quite preconceived about my appetite, which makes most people turn a blind eye to the loopholes. Have enough persistence for yourself and the...

      It turned out that this incident had such an ending. Every system has its shortcomings, and what matters is its rigour and fairness. When justice cannot be done, and the judicial system cannot advocate it, there is only an individual's unremitting pursuit of...
