You go high water, I go hell

I watched this film for Pipi, and later I found out that it was the screenwriter of Sicario. It is said that Pai Pai's blue eyes are unparalleled in the world, and he can recognize it at a glance with a hood.

In contrast, this one doesn't poke me as much as sicario, maybe it's because I don't feel so sympathetic to the predicament of the old Texas iron. The idea of ​​robbing the rich is enduring, and bankers are the root of all evil. The Bonnie and Clyde I watched later was a desperate mandarin duck dragging a family to rob a bank, and Heat was a professional gang robbing a bank. This one is a bank robbing by desperate brothers. All the robbed banks in the movies in the world can go around the world when they are connected together. And there will always be a phrase "don't try my best to steal your money".

Between brothers, the title hell or high water feels more reflected in the elder brother. He has no way to go to hell, so he will vote until he dies. On the side of the police station, the old mounted policeman provoked the lead, and the climax of the story is that these two people who are willing to go through fire and water meet by narrow roads. It is said that the old Mounted Police set up so many flags, but his partner died, which is really not out of the way, as if seeing the screenwriter smiling, "I am not surprised, not surprised", but the screenwriter is still as cold and restrained as ever when dealing with the death paragraph. , without any sloppy sensationalism.

This film shows the sturdy folk customs of Texas and the desolation of rural southern United States. A Texas farmer, simple and strong, with a great body, he doesn't take guns seriously. He was shocked to see that Pai Paiyan's younger brother was stabbed through the wound and looked like he was fine. This film can actually have a name for the next generation
