Detective Story: The Evil Formula
The iron-fisted policy and never straying are the consistent truths upheld by police officer Jim. Because he lived in the shadow of his father's tyranny as a child, his heart was full of sorrow and pain due to this black-and-white oppression. It is reflected in the work, that although it emphasizes conscience and handling cases, it is unable to implement a more humane strategy.
Such as the treatment of young Arthur. His theft was a first offense, but Jim just wasn't willing to let...

In addition to the law, there are also people
Titled "The Great Detective Story", this is an atypical noir film, and the director doesn't focus on how detectives solve crimes - in fact, several of the cases involved in the film are trivial (except for the murder doctor Schneider). and four-time felon Charlie) — instead focusing on how detectives handled the suspect. I have to say this is refreshing to me.
The male protagonist, Jim, is a detective with a clear distinction between right and wrong. He always...

Character conflicts in a small space, the stage sense is full of drama, and the close-up has high requirements for performance; the road to the truth is always deep, but unfortunately death cannot dilute this...

Fortunately, the last minute of the fight was cleared. It is said that this film is to explain the shadow of Freud's childhood. The story basically takes place in the police station, like an indoor drama with only one...

The thing that is very unfriendly to the audience is that the mentality of the male protagonist who is black and white is too repeated. A simple audience may have to change their attitude towards him four or five times in more than ten minutes. It's been a long time... and this female supporting role has nothing to do with the main line at all...

Detective James McLeod: Where's your boy?
[Asking about Karl Schneider]
Lieutenant Monaghan: He's ready to surrender himself on the warrant you had issued.
Detective James McLeod: Fine. Bring him in.
Endicott Sims: Before I do, I have here some photographs. Now these were taken only an hour ago.
Lieutenant Monaghan: Nudes. Ugly, isn't he?
Endicott Sims: He's no Mr. America.
Lieutenant Monaghan: No, that he's not.
Endicott Sims: Now you'll observe there are no bruises or lacerations of any kind. This is the way I'm delivering my client to you, and this is the way I want him back.
Detective James McLeod: I should think that any change whatsoever would be an improvement.

Detective James McLeod: I ought to fall on you like the sword of God.
Karl Schneider: That sword has two edges. You could cut your own throat.
Detective James McLeod: I'm going to give you a piece of advice, Karl. When they let you free again, get out of New York. You butcher one more patient and law or no law, I'll find you. I'll put a bullet in the back of your head, and I'll drop your body in the East River. And I'll go home and I'll sleep sweetly.
Karl Schneider: You don't frighten me. Now I'll give you some advice. I have plenty on you, too. I know why you're so vindictive.
Detective James McLeod: Why?
Karl Schneider: Just watch your step. Because I happen to have friends, downtown, with pull.
Detective James McLeod: Have you?
Karl Schneider: Lots of pull.
Detective James McLeod: Well, what do you know? Aren't you the big shot? Pull. Have you got any friends with push, like that?
[Shoves him and begins slapping him]
