The end of the good man

The plot is very cliché, it is nothing more than an old story of gangsters trying to wash their hands with money after being released from prison but finding that people can't help themselves in the arena. But the chase scene at the end is pretty awesome.
Because I just watched "Scarface" not long ago, the director and starring of the two films are the same, so I can't help but compare:
1. Pacino played a very good old man in "Dawn of the Owl": a good man, a good buddy, a good citizen, gentle to his lover, loyal to his friends, and tolerant to his enemies. This makes the audience who are used to his gangster brother's style very unaccustomed to it. Moreover, Arsino is still passive everywhere in this film, his buddies are betrayed, his subordinates betray, and his unshaven face always shows a frantic expression of helplessness, which makes me like to watch him sweeping people with a machine gun while spraying "fxxk" "The fans are also very helpless.
2. The heroine is good, but not as good as Michelle Pfeiffer. In this film, there are many performances that show two points... It shows that De Palma is still very open, and she is not a big star. Then again, how much I want to see Michelle Pfeiffer at two o'clock.
3. I think Brian De Palma should be a quasi-master director, but why is he always in a state of half black and not red? Maybe it's because of his heavy taste. For example, in "Scarface", there is a scene where a chainsaw cuts people, and "Love Owl" is the scene of cutting the throat soon after the beginning.

Sean Penn, one of the leading actors in this film, you must not recognize me at the beginning of my guarantee.
If I give "Scarface" five stars, then this film is four and a half stars, and the reason for the recommendation is Pacino, the chase scene at the end, Sean Penn.
The next Palma movie to look forward to is Razor's Edge.

    Gangster men and women plot thriller action life and other elements are almost perfectly combined. The ending song is very good

Carlito's Way quotes

  • Carlito: [voiceover] There is a line you cross, you don't never come back from. Point of no return. Dave crossed it. I'm here with him. That's means I am going along for the ride. The whole ride. All the way to the end of the line, wherever that is.

  • Carlito: [to Gail] There I am, sitting in jail, wondering where you are, what you're doing, who you're with.
