      How much influence does one's childhood have on one's life?

      That day, someone coerced and enticed me and sent a message urging me to watch a liar, which happened to be fine, so I reluctantly agreed. From the very beginning of the film, I knew it was a good movie that I had seen a long time ago but never knew the name of.
        
        Little Frank ran away from home because he couldn't accept the reality of his parents' divorce, and was forced to make a living by making fake checks to cheat money. His father had an allusion to two mice that fell into a...

      Because of love, go home

      Even the most intelligent criminals have their weaknesses. Frank's reliance on family is his Achilles' heel and his most lovable part. Therefore, no matter what kind of strategy Frank applies in the later period, even if he escapes temporarily, it will be easy for Carl to find him. That's also why Carl saved him, in addition to talent, a large part of it was for this reason. Because a child with an infinite longing for family in his heart will not be a cold-blooded criminal, but a reindeer who...

      Where would I be if I hadn't met you -- a litter of cats and mice +_+

      Tom Hanks (representative of Forrest Gump and Sleepless in Seattle, with a positive energy or mild, in short pollution-free face) and "bad boy" Leonardo (representative of Titanic, In Inception and The Wolf of Wall Street are all people whose thinking and behavior are very different from mainstream society and ordinary people), such two people play the role of cat and mouse, and the visual contrast is stark and very interesting.

      Let's take a look at the character set--

      who is the mouse

      It's quite a legendary story, and it's a bit superb. One is that children are too smart, and they can do everything quickly. They deceive one expert after another, and one is a fixed routine in the United States. People in the CIA are too stupid to do anything. Okay. Makes you have to ask yourself who is the cat and who is the mouse. The poor cat was played around with the little mouse, and there was a bit of drama.
      The story is not very realistic at first glance, it is more like a simple...

      i know you'll be back

      The scene that hurts me the most is when Frank gets the bad news of his father's death on the plane to be extradited to the United States, and he escapes from Carl again. When he arrived at the house, he saw the remarried mother and the remarried man being intimate in his former home. A little girl looked at him through the glass. He asked the little girl who you were, and the little girl pointed to Frank's mother: that It's my mother. Frank collapsed completely at this moment, everything that...

      To be a super swindler really requires talent and ingenuity, as well as the ability to adapt to changes at any time. It's too awesome, and it's still a real character... It's very impressive that Frank tried to be honest with others three times, because So lonely, when you have to wear a mask and live a lie anytime, anywhere, you are so lonely that you long to let others see your true face, but you find that when you are truthful with those you try to trust When you were alone, they gave you...

    Shooting Highlights

    Jennifer Garner only spent one day filming her scene.
    The floating dollar bills in the film mimic the flying feather in "Forrest Gump".
    Although the surface of the concrete road that the audience sees through the lens is wet, in fact, all the scenes of the film were shot on a sunny day.

    Wear help lens

    Facts are wrong: After Frank Jr. and Carl returned to the United States, Frank looked out the window on the plane and said, "This is LaGuardia Airport, runway 44." The runway number of the airport comes from their compass pointing. From 01 to 36, so there is no "runway 44" at all.
    An anachronism: In 1969, when Frank and Carl landed at LaGuardia Airport, there was a group of New York City shots from the sky, and the World Trade Center...

    Creative background

    The screenwriter Jeff Nathanson first learned of his legendary experience from Abagno’s interview videos. He felt that Abagno’s story is similar to "Tiger Leopard" and "Leaping the Cuckoo's Nest". Those movies Focusing on illegal or anti-social groups, although they are villains, they can win the support and love of the audience with their irresistible personal charm. He believes that Frank's story can make a good movie. Beginning in...

    Evaluation action

    The film started at a slower pace, and the back and forth of time and space made the audience eager to find out the truth have to concentrate on every detail. This may also be a way of structuring the film. Hollywood films generally grab the audience’s attention in the first few minutes and create an atmosphere as soon as possible to enter the theme. The beginning of the film seems to be a bit similar to soap operas and detective...
