Plain sketch

When he was 8 years old, Frankie witnessed his father being shot and killed by a gunman who broke out and died on the dining table. After adulthood, he joined the IRA and became an outstanding grassroots commander in it. In previous operations, he caused major damage to the British military and police and became a key wanted target. After an orchestrated raid, Frankie and others had lost their foothold in Northern Ireland and were forced to go to the United States.
With the help of the fellow township association, Frankie lived in the house of Irish police officer Tom. Frankie is handsome and good-spoken. The Tom family likes him living here, and the children like him too. In this way, Frankie secretly used the organization to make money and equipment while working while preparing to return to China to do a big job. On the surface, he is a new immigrant who is hardworking and motivated, and Tom didn't notice any difference in him.
However, in the process of purchasing the equipment, I encountered black and black. Frankie hid a large amount of cash in Tom's house before and was searched by arms dealers. It just so happened that all of this was smashed by Tom and his wife who were ready to go home and relax. If Frankie hadn't arrived in time, the Tom and his wife might have encountered an accident.
Frankie then went to the arms dealer theory, and was surprised to learn that his comrade-in-arms had been kidnapped by him. Frankie was beaten up and put it back so that he could take the money to redeem him. At this time, relying on the police's sense of smell, Tom realized that the sofa and the mattress had been cut open. These people must be looking for something. He fumbled around in the room, found the money and passport that Frankie had hidden under the floor, and knew his identity.
After Frankie went home, he was captured by Tom. Tom felt that it was better to be in a prison in the United States than to be sent to death in Britain. Frankie escaped halfway and shot Eddie, a colleague of Tom who was about to retire, and ran away.
Frankie broke into Longtan Tiger's Lair alone to destroy the arms dealer. And Tom also contacted the FBI and British agents. He realized that the British would definitely not keep Tom alive, so he had to find Frankie first. Through the hometown association, Tom found Frankie's trace. After a trace, he boarded Tom Frankie's thief ship. On the boat, the two started hurting each other. Tom suffered a minor gunshot wound, and Frankie was shot severely, which seemed terrible. The story ended like this...
It is indeed not a wonderful story, although I am very interested in this period of history. In addition, when he went to school, he always had a bit of prejudice against Pete, thinking that his acting skills were not good enough to walk the rivers and lakes and rely on a pretty face. In fact, he could really act in a lot of wonderful films, especially in the 90s. of.

    Brad Pitt had wanted to quit filming, but was forced to give up due to the threat of lawsuits from the producers. Pitt thought the final version was terrible, and the script he was optimistic about no longer existed, so Pitt wanted to quit, and the producers asked him to pay as much as $63 million in liquidated damages.

    Two days ago, I learned that the photographer of The Godfather Trilogy had passed away, and I read the relevant materials, which mentioned this movie, Harrison Ford, Brad Pitt, such two generations of big-name actors, including this director, the first I downloaded this movie in time, but the plot is indeed the case, which is completely different from what I thought, thinking it is the kind of movie that kills one person and solves a case. . . Hehe, no wonder the score is not high, but I can't say why.
