The film is full of tension and fascination. Whether it's the son and father meeting for the first time in prison, or the son's trial on false premise, the lines are fiercely advancing the film's plot and portraying the characters. Trust me, you won't want to miss it. in a sentence. Prejudice is terrifying, coupled with the tense political environment in which the grass and trees are all soldiers, and this is undoubtedly doomed to Gary's fate. The character Gary is not likable, he is simply a typical representative of contemporary waste youth. He is idle and likes to steal chickens and dogs. Just like a child who has not grown up, his father always follows behind him and pays for his mistakes. But I think he loves his father, and he wants his approval, so when friends urged him to ask his father for money, he refused to confess that he was swept out of the house without a penny, and he used the stolen money to go shopping. Returning home to create the illusion of returning home in Jinyi, he will be furious at the threat of the police killing his father, his love for his father needs us to figure out, on the other hand, his love for his father is always out, and the audience can see it It is clear that his worries and his gratifications are very clear. When Gary in prison complained about his father madly, whether out of fear or guilt, it was the first time that he directly showed the deep contradiction between father and son. His father was always elegant like a gentleman, neither fighting nor robbing nor arrogant, but a little rigid. He didn't realize that the government had abandoned him, and he always wanted to use normal legal procedures to clear them up. He was also full of justice and stuck to the life he believed in. Creed, so he sneered at the real bomber, while his son followed the trend, cowardly and incompetent, his beliefs changed rapidly, hiding behind his father's back one second and making promises, the next second the fox prevailed, arrogant and domineering. When Joe made an accident and sprayed the musket at the warden, the warden, who had been chatting with his father like an old friend not long ago, was roaring with arrogant flames, screaming in pain, and fleeing in a panic. Gary was inexplicably surprised. On the ground, the warden with all his clothes destroyed, his face burned, and the warden convulsed, Gary suddenly realized that Joe did not show any mercy and really wanted to kill the warden. A murderer is a murderer, and his father was right. Not to betray his conscience and join forces to gain his freedom was a major shift in Gary's mood, so he decided to stand on a united front with his father. That is, in prison, the father and son really come together, the son understands his father, respects his father and loves him, and at the same time he grows up slowly. The truth is always in the prison, and Gary's inmates are also working hard to restore the innocence of the father and son in their own way. can't stand Threats of questioning authority so the choice will be wrong. The death of his father was undoubtedly a great blow to him, but it was also the driving force for him to insist on his innocence. At this time, Gary's change was very obvious. It can be seen from the two conversations with the female lawyer that his father's love has always been there. Accompanying him, he was constantly motivated, and his eyes flashed with unshakable faith. In fact, the movie has already begun to point to the topic here, in order to prove the innocence of his father, in order to prove the innocence of all those involved in this case, in order to make the real Sinful people fall under the law, i will fight on in the name of father and of the truth! Gary finally lost his naive tender shell, became a man who promised his father to take care of his family, and became a freedom fighter!
