    Don't talk about politics, just talk about movies

    A good movie based on a true story can not only be described by the word "good-looking", it brings people more "shock". It sparks thinking far beyond the film itself.

         I was shocked while watching this "Suspicious Cloud". It turned out that there was such a shocking thing: the police station...

    The beginning is tragic, the middle is angry, and the end is shocking!

    After being abused by Zhao Wei and Huang Bo's "Zunzi blockbuster" and "Dear", I accidentally found another very similar movie, that is, the Oscar nomination classic in 2008 - "Suspicious Clouds of Change" ".

    The story takes place in Los Angeles in 1928. Angelina Jolie's mother Kristen Collins bids...

    Evil society has great motherhood. Jolie's acting is not bad, and the story is also profound and thought-provoking, but it feels a bit abrupt and hasty when solving the "killing a child" case, and it seems too long-winded in the end.

A strong mother who is obsessed with finding her children, although her struggle against the system is difficult, fortunately, there is the help of the media. Using the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) as a target of corruption is reminiscent of [LA Confidential]. 2. Dongmu's narration is as calm as ever, and once again he personally performed the soundtrack. Several young actors (especially the repentant accomplice children) performed brilliantly, and Angelina Jolie's performance was a matter of opinion. 3. The photography and lighting are excellent. Many dark and high-contrast lighting are similar to film noir. The characters are often hidden in the shadows. The low-saturation, slightly brown tones also match the atmosphere of the 1920s and 1930s. The black and white-color gradients that echo each other are also very historical. 4. Homage to old movies: The boys who came to LA for Western star Tom Meeks and his steed Tony, [It Happened One Night] Oscar (though it wasn't as public at the time). 5. The priest has a cowboy character~ (8.0/10)

Changeling quotes

  • Reporter at Precinct: [as Northcott is being taken into custody] How did you avoid capture?

    Gordon Northcott: Well, I didn't, did I?

  • [last lines]

    Christine Collins: Three boys made a run for it that night, detective, and if one got out, then maybe either or both of the other two did too. Maybe Walter's out there having the same fears that he did. Afraid to come home and identify himself, or afraid to get in trouble. But either way, it gives me something I didn't have before today.

    Detective Lester Ybarra: What's that?

    Christine Collins: Hope.
