Escape to Paradise

The title is Carlido's way, Favorite Al, and again it makes me want to say what a Al Pacino...

maybe it's not one of his best movies, and it may not be one of his best One, but I couldn't help but like it and sigh. It is still the routine of underworld births trying to seek redemption, but it is no longer the lofty path that Michael Corleone sought, creating a new future for himself and his family. Al here is just seeking such a simple and beautiful dream, just to escape to Panama's seaside rental car business, with his woman. It's a pity that the inevitable dramatic ending makes people see him go after him with all his strength, but it seems that he can touch it at such a distance, but he can never really grasp it. Perhaps such a story is impressive, regrettable, regrettable, and unwilling.

I still remember what Al said in the film, "The dream never come itself, we get to long for it." The same is true of how small a wish is, we look forward to it, but it doesn't come, because we never pursue it enthusiastically. We imagine a future where our dreams come true, but the future is close but can’t bring us dreams, because we are still standing in the same place, and we have never narrowed the distance from our dreams. That way, there is no reason to complain anymore.

The billboard that seems to be always flashing clearly prints Escape to paradise, which makes people yearn, because many times I want to escape, there are too many reasons and excuses, but often after a momentary fantasy, I have to return to reality and accept reality, because There is no courage, but also because there is nowhere to escape.

Next time you want to escape, gather up your courage and escape to heaven

    The position of this movie in my heart is no less than that of the "Godfather" trilogy. Not only has it not lost its brilliance in the precipitation of the years, but it has become more and more flavorful. Even if I forget the plot of the movie, I will not forget that on that rainy night, Caledo followed the fairy-like Kyle in the rain, carefully and passionately, spying on the goddess under the lid of the trash can. Parma uses such a scene to show Calido’s nostalgia for the old face. This nostalgia is like a fateful pursuit, which makes Calido unable to escape or defy, even if the world is no longer the moral world. . Al Pacino's performance is quite wonderful, it is easy to overlook Palma's exquisite scene scheduling, smart long shots and fancy perspective conversion, both retro temperament and innovative ideas, it is really rare. The two complemented each other and saved this slightly mediocre script.

    So David asked Calido for help. Although Kyle begged hard, in order to repay his favor, Kallidor agreed to perform this dangerous task.

    Carlito: One more thing. We're even.
