      what is it about

      I don't think this is a movie about right and wrong. Some people want to defy fate and change a person's origin in order to give love and fulfill themselves and others. This is a major matter, but it is a small detail. What can the male protagonist change if he reports to the police or not in the end, his fate will not be manipulated, but will only be seen slowly.

      It was the things you don't choose that makes you who you are.

      “I always believed it was the things you don't choose that makes you who you are. Your city; Your neighborhood; Your family. People here take pride in these things. Like it was something they'd accomplished. The bodies around their souls. The cities wrapped around those.”

      So right and wrong have no meaning

      Because of love, it has made a big mistake, which is even more heartbreaking. This kind of injury will be attached to your heart for a lifetime, lingering and unforgettable. Regret haunts the body like a shadow, a lifetime of guilt and anxiety.

      "Missing Baby"

      As Ben Affleck's directorial debut, the film is very good. The appeal of the film is not a detective film, so in terms of rhythm and characterization, it appears to be relatively plain compared to genre films, but it is these peaceful advancements that make the film achieve its original purpose.

      The protagonist thinks that he can see the peace in those unrest, but the peace is also contradictory.

      Casey Affleck uses a very life-like performance to shape a not-so-simple story...

    Screenwriting

    After reading the novel "The Missing Baby", Ben Affleck liked the story told in the novel so much, so he asked his friend Aaron Stockard to help him write the script for the film. The script took more than two years, and Ben Affleck and Aaron Stockard met whenever they had time, almost three or four times a year. For the story content of the hundreds of pages of Dennis Lehan’s novel, we structured it and condensed it into an image of...

    China evaluation

    The story of the novel takes place in the downtown area of ​​Boston. Ben Affleck is very familiar with the accents, gangs, and security environment there, because Boston is where he grew up with his brother Kathy Affleck.

    Movie quotes

    • Detective Remy Bressant: [about Patrick] Half the guys he knows are degenerates.

      Patrick Kenzie: Yeah, you know what the other half are?

      Detective Remy Bressant: What?

      Patrick Kenzie: Cops. Don't hold it against me.

    • Capt. Jack Doyle: Do you have any children, Miss Gennaro?

      Angie Gennaro: No, sir.

      Capt. Jack Doyle: My only child was murdered. She was twelve. Did you hear about it? What you probably didn't hear, and what I hope you never have to deal with, Miss Gennaro, is what that feels like. What I have to deal with. Knowing that my little girl likely died crying out for me to come and save her. And I never did. My little girl died afraid and alone in a shallow ditch bank by the side of the road, not ten minutes from my house. I know what it feels like to lose a child. Now damn it, you force my hand and then you question the way I handle it.

      Detective Remy Bressant: No one's questioning you, sir.

      Capt. Jack Doyle: I honor my child with this division. So that no parent has to go through what I've known. This child. That's all I care about. I'm gonna bring her home.

    • Patrick Kenzie: And like that, she was gone. We gave our statements. Nick and Remy the same. All of us spared any blame for Amanda's death. Jack Doyle resigned on the condition that he and he alone be held accountable. He was granted the dignity of early retirement, but the humiliation of half a pension. It was an ignominious end to an illustrious career.
