A black couple and their son Andy relocated to Lost Town, a move that may not seem like a thing today, but it caused an uproar in Lost Town in the 1950s. All the residents of the lost town were eager to drive away the black couple who were still moving furniture to their home. Only their neighbors across the street showed goodwill to them. One of the two middle-aged women said to the boy, "Nicky, let's go and play baseball with that boy."
Next, all the residents of the lost town will use all kinds of harsh means to drive away the dark-skinned family of three. Only the Nikki family always stands with the black couple... right?
wrong.
The scene that followed was when robbers came from Nicky's house, and they tied Nicky's dad Gardner, Nicky's mom Rose, Nicky's aunt Margaret and Nicky to a chair— —At this time, we figured out that it was his aunt Margaret who asked Nicky to play baseball with black kid Andy, and his mother was bad enough to sit in a wheelchair. The robber asked Rose why she was paralyzed. Rose replied that it was her husband's car accident, but fortunately, no one died. At this time, I didn't see at all that the robbers were asking knowingly, so I couldn't see that something was wrong with the family. So, when the robbers ended the robbery by drugging the 4 members of Nicky's house, I couldn't see one of the robbers being particularly long-winded when covering Rose's mouth and nose with the drug-soaked towel. the truth. After the incident, Nikki, father and aunt returned to normal, only mother Rose, who never woke up again - this is not surprising, because Rose has been weak and ill for a long time after the car accident, so she took her sister Margery. Please come home to take care of my husband and son.
Rose died, and "Murder in Lost Town" began to get to the point. Yes, George Clooney, no, or rather the screenwriters, the Coen brothers, never thought of writing a racist film. The residents of the lost town went to the town government to petition, gathered crowds, set fire to the house... Attempting to drive away the black family who had just moved in was just a hindrance in "Murder in Lost Town". The Coen brothers were more interested in the 1950s. In the United States, small towns like Lost Town have a darker social status quo than racial discrimination.
The police station informed the Gardner family to go to the police station to identify the suspect. Through the glass, I, like Nikki who rushed in, determined that the two men on the far right, the fat one and the thin one, were the ones who broke into the Gardners' house. Two robbers, so, like Nikki, I wondered why Dad and Auntie were so adamant in denying that there was no suspect on the other side of the glass. Unlike Nikki, he could yell and question his father why he didn't identify the murderer, and I seemed to see a beam of light from the Coen brothers and George Clooney to us in the blinded middle building: The murder is a fraud!
At that moment, I was reminded of James M Cain's masterpiece "The Postman Always Rings the Bell Twice".
"The Postman Always Rings Twice", "Double Indemnity", "Desire", James M. Cain has written the darkness of human nature to the extreme through carefully calculated crimes, so "Murder in Lost Town" can only be Following in the footsteps of James M. Kane. A staunch "The Postman Always Rings Twice" fan like me who walked into the movie theater unaware that "Murder in the City" was a James M. When Te refused to identify the murderer, he began to slowly penetrate the film's tricks, but he was still willing to praise "Murder in Lost Town". Of course, the actors were a very important factor. Matt Damon seemed to be cursed by "Good Will Hunting", and all the roles he played later could never surpass Will, but Julianne Moore used a retro image after "Still Alice" to portray a man because of love in a retro image The woman who killed her sister but pretended to be ignorant and would only follow, was made credible and pitiful. Best actor, though, the little actor who played Nicky at the time. After the murder was revealed, Margaret died in an accident, and Gardner also ate Margaret's drugged sandwich and fell asleep. Nicky, who knew the truth, walked out of the bloody home. Going to the black boy Andy on the opposite door, at that moment I thought, what will Nicky do in the future? Yes, I confuse Nicky with the life of the little actor who plays Nicky.
And to throw my mind into chaos at the end of the movie is the Coen brothers' fiction too wonderful: Gardner deliberately causes a car accident because he is in love with his wife Rose's sister, Margaret, but Rose just There were no fatalities. Margaret moved into Gardner's house in the name of taking care of her sister, but it wasn't easy to love her, so a pair of dog men and women came up with a conspiracy to hire a killer to come to the house. It's a pity that the insurance company's claims adjuster is an old river and lake. He can see through the fraud in the play of burglary at a glance, just like getting a piece of the pie. The two murderers hired by Gardner, because they could not get the money they deserved, could not be as calm as Gardner demanded. Therefore, Gardner, who could have done his duty but may have lived crampedly They began to die one by one...
Desires are like a sea, and the cravings are hard to fill, so after James M. Kane, the black theme will not disappear. Whether it can become a classic depends on talent; and whether it can be wonderful depends on what is happening in life...
