Big Bad Guys vs Small Innocents

This is a movie from 20 years ago in the United States. I didn't have a beautiful woman to accompany this Christmas, so I watched the movie! There are always not too many movies that can move me lately, but today this sentimental one made me cry a little bit.
The story of a prisoner and a boy hostage.
At the beginning of the film, the first person to appear is not a person, but a large piece of grass, and then the camera moves to a white child's mask, whose head is a little monkey, followed by the male protagonist, a person, white shirt, green grass, big blue sky , lie on the ground, close your eyes, and the breeze blows. The scene is very harmonious. There are eagles flying in the sky, and bulls are floating around the hero. The scene is always static, although the wind blows. Then the helicopter appeared. The sound of the wings was specially processed at a slow speed. The sound was very rhythmic, like a heartbeat, floating peacefully in the sky. I have already guessed that this is a kind of silent ending of the story. At the beginning of the movie, the warmth of the setting sun is deliberately used to imply that the setting sun is a material property that makes people imagine. I guess this movie should be a tragedy.
Then there is a story that the two protagonists successfully escape from prison and happen on the way. Two men can't both become male protagonists, and one of them was eliminated early at the beginning of the story. So the clue becomes simple and clear, which is the story of the hero and the little boy. Several groups of shots explain the background of the male protagonist and the little boy respectively. The deepest impression was that the little boy was under the control of his mother, and the other children were throwing water bags at the little boy lying on the indoor window. He just lay blankly on the window, looking at the little friends who were running around.
This is a film about children's education. After being mum-controlled at home, all the children's interests are stifled within the boundaries of what they seem Hands-on, there are two obvious scenes about children's education in the film, one is the introduction to the little boy's family at the beginning, and the other is that they rob the owner of a car in the middle of the road. But I think whether the film also implies that the male protagonist finally embarks on a crime road is also related to this kind of family education, so I am particularly opposed to this way of educating children. This, as a dark thread, supports the vein of the film and then develops downward.
The dialogue of the story is basically carried out in the car, and the hero teaches children how to live and how to enjoy the moment in a way of value that he understands. In the picture, the hero is inseparable from smoking every time. This seems to mean that the hero will always live in the moment. I think this kind of life is the most realistic and fulfilling. When a person has hopes and dreams, he will move forward in a given direction. In the middle of the movie, the actor took out a photo of a beautiful scenery. This is the nature he has always longed for. If this is a fairy tale, then the story becomes very simple, and it must be the ideal place for the male protagonist to take the little boy to their ideal place in the end. But as an event and a movie, the plot is both situational and unexpected after the hero is shot by the little boy. Unlike other personal heroism, the hero subconsciously looks back when he can't find the gun but finds it in the hands of the little boy, he decides that the little boy will not shoot, just like the beginning of the film, the hero goes to the store The little boy did not shoot, but this time was different, the male protagonist was shot. He was shot for the first time in his life, and when he was hit by the second bullet in his life, he went to heaven. The plot is so realistic that it made me feel the life and death of life again. Maybe death often comes in an inadvertent moment, and you never expect it, especially in the age of guns.
The male protagonist held a gun to other people's heads several times in the movie, but he didn't really kill many people, and he didn't take it lightly for innocent people and those who did harm to him. But on a farm, what he did to the farmer's family really broke through the bottom line that a little boy could bear. This bottom line was also caused by human nature or education. Inadvertently, the gun rang, and the actor was shot, and he couldn't believe that he would be shot. But looking at the time of the movie, I felt that there were still half an hour of scenes left, and I felt that it was too early to be shot.
The latter are basically literary dramas and emotional dramas. It is also the climax of the whole comedy, the most tearful place. I want to cry in this place, the whole drama has a long rhythm in this place, until the hero stops breathing. I would like to say a few more words about his death. When the chief was about to walk over to negotiate with him, the agent was holding a gun and was about to shoot. I guessed that this would be the end. Lie down on his knees with his upper body back 90 degrees. he's gone. . . . . What he took out was not a deadly gun but his original ideal, and that picture again. . . .
Finally, it is worth mentioning that the director punched the agent in the nose, like a tough guy; the assistant governor immediately kicked the agent's egg with his knee, like a chivalrous girl. . . . . .
The last shot was like the beginning, and there was a series of aerial shots, but it was different from the beginning. The beginning of the shot is that the camera keeps zooming in and finally the close-up of the male protagonist's face is continuously enlarged. On the whole small farm lake, the scenery is also full of green, and the green eyes are full of green, does it also imply that the final hero is also lying on a beautiful scenery, which is no less than the one in the photo. . . .
