      Two-line narrative, but not connected enough

      A murder case and the hero's youth memories are cross-narrated. The idea is good, but it is difficult to implement, because the two are not well combined, resulting in a lack of overall plot tension.

      Overall it's okay, but there are a few points where the narrative progression still seems blunt.

      1. The principal is addicted to gambling. In such a small town, he should be able to hide it soon. The hole of 70,000 yuan will soon be exposed....

      that is all

      I've found that any film that's changed from a novel goes against the core point of the original in order to accentuate the dramatic conflict. The whole story seems to be fair and well-behaved, but why does it always feel familiar, too stereotyped: there is no rain in a remote Australian town for 324 days, the rivers have dried up, the agriculture has been hit hard, and the people are depressed. In this case, the childhood favorite The girl's death, the male protagonist who...

      Why is Australia dry?

      The plot of the movie is very simple. There are two murders. The boy Ellie is killed, and now another good friend of the timeline, Luke's family, is killed. The male protagonist has always been mistaken for the suspect who killed Ellie, but is actually the girl's perverted father, and the Luke family was killed by the principal. This movie is similar to some of the plots in "Forrest Gump". Forrest Gump's girlfriend should have been sexually assaulted by his father when he was a child. This...

      Closed town, simple life, this is how Tuao lives! They don't need the world, they just need themselves.

      Since the new crown epidemic, Tu and Australia have been unfriendly to us, and even started to act as the vanguard of anti-China in 2021. Obviously, the economic and trade exchanges with China are very close, and many industry products are mainly sold in China, but people are so ZUO, they must do things.

      Many Chinese people are very confused about Tuao's practice, and exclaimed that there is such a god's operation?

      In fact, the exchanges...

      dry up

      1. Federal agent Allen received a funeral invitation from his hometown for his childhood friend Luke and his wife and children. This is a human tragedy, his childhood friend Luke committed suicide after allegedly killing his wife and children. Allen was very hesitant to go back to the funeral. It took courage for him to go back to his hometown, but he saw a note from Luke's old father that read "Luke and you are lying, come to the funeral". This note...

      When lies in the dry town become the norm, although the main storyline is not full of surprises, the whole story including the supporting characters is very...

      After a four-year hiatus on the big screen, I saw Eric Bana who was returning. He was more serious and not willing to make a vase. He started working hard in local movies again, and he was handy and had more opportunities for trials. It was better than soaking in the industry alone Homogeneous roles are good; direct support is great. In fact, the story is not huge, the protagonist who returns to his hometown (small town); the intertwining and overlapping of the case and the deceased person, and...

      I watched it for Eric Bana, with English subtitles, and I finished it twice. The scenery has changed a lot. The river that once devoured the girl has dried up many years later. The strange thing is that the bag in the stone crack did not rot, and the contents inside were still intact. Eric Bana is still online, the whole story is based on flashbacks and analysis, and there are no intense action...
