In the proof of life, Russell Crowe and Meg Ryan play Terry and Alice. The film tells a story about kidnapping and redemption that happened in South America. Russell Crowe starred as Terry, a hostage management expert employed by a crisis management company. The story is deeply meaningful. The negotiator starring Russell Crowe was born to death. With his professional courage and wit, he rescued the hostages kidnapped by the Chechen armed forces very beautifully. However, when he reported on his actions, he was on the opposite side of the round table. The executives of the company only mentioned the difference between the insurance income in West Asia and the company's ransom cost. For Terry, the life of the hostages is of utmost importance, but for the company's senior management, how to make more and faster money is what they are pursuing. When Terry walked out of the meeting room, a person leaned on the observation elevator and slowly descended, just as his heart and mood sink. The telephoto lens in the film expresses Russell Crowe's loss and confusion. Inwardly, Terry is lonely and lonely. Parents and children love him but regard him as an officer; his wife combines with him only to humiliate his father. Behind this man's strength is the true and endless loneliness in his heart.
The camera pans out. At this time, in the vast South American continent, Meg Ryan was in a noisy market accompanied by a local servant to buy fruit bored, the romantic and charming background music of South America slowly remembered, gorgeous and slightly debauched, just Like the dappled sunshine in South America, it looks so bright and beautiful together, which contrasts sharply with Russell Crowe's gray mood.
Terry's new assignment is to go to South America to negotiate the ransom for the kidnapping ransom with the kidnappers. At this time, he still hadn't recovered from the low tide after the last rescue time, helpless and hesitating, he came to Tekara. In this mission, it was Alice's husband that Terry wanted to rescue. He was kidnapped by local political forces while driving.
Terry looked back in the shadow of a green tree, and Alice was walking towards him. Alice gradually trusted Terry, and when Terry had initially determined the negotiation plan, the progress of things took a turn for the worse. He received a notice from the company requesting to withdraw the headquarters because Alice’s husband’s company had cancelled its kidnapping insurance coverage in Terri because of a commercial acquisition. In this way, the company is no longer obliged to resolve this kidnapping and redemption case, and Terry has to withdraw from this case.
When Alice was most helpless, Terry reappeared in front of her. What exactly is Terry doing for? There are two plots in the film. Alice once asked, "Why are you?" "I can't give you anything." His friends saw their tacit understanding and knew that Terry had moved and reminded him: "Do you expect After saving her husband, can she leave with you?" I like this passage on Weibo: There are two things to be happy in life, one is to do what you want to do, and the other is to do something extraordinary. Things, but you have to afford it. Terry must have done what he wanted to do, and he was a little out of the ordinary, and then paid the price for it. Because of the initial enthusiasm, I couldn't extricate myself, and then fell in love, and even left everything to do a foolish thing that outsiders seemed to have no return on. He decided to help Alice rescue her husband with his own strength. When a person falls in love, as long as you simply do things for her, you will be happy. It's just that I have always wanted to ask and keep asking: Where can Terry put his self-confidence and self-esteem in deep love step by step.
In this film, the relationship between Terry and Alice is vague and ambiguous. This is thanks to director Taylor Hackford for subtracting all the sex scenes between Russell Crowe and Meg Ryan when editing the film. Turn the feelings in this film into a purely emotional love. This change also makes the theme of the film more acceptable. Otherwise, the empathy of a woman during her husband’s abduction would be unacceptable. On the contrary, this change makes Russell Crowe's love with Meg Ryan natural and beautiful. To love a woman and save her husband without hesitation in return, adds too much romance and heroism.
I like Russell Crowe very much. As I once wrote in an article, the roles he plays are heavy and have the strength to bear the weight of life. In this story, Terry, played by Russell Crowe, gives everything for a relationship that seems to have nothing but nothing. In fact, Russell Crowe is also a very "man" person in life. When he was filming "Evidence of Life", he and Meg Ryan were in a secret relationship like a plot. But unlike the practice of many people in China deliberately creating scandals and hype before the film, before the release of "Proof of Life", he and Meg Ryan refused all print media requests for publicity and interviews, which to a certain extent caused the film’s box office to be dismal. Suffering beyond words. Heart-for-heart, the two are moved by their true feelings. The scandal between the two led to the breakup of the model couple on the screen, Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid. Russell Crowe was criticized for this. However, under heavy pressure, Russell Crowe did not make any excuses, silently bearing the evaluation and phantom of the "bad boy" given by public opinion. This silence lasted for six years, and until six years later, Meg Ryan voluntarily admitted that her marriage to her husband Dennis Quaid had existed long before she dated Crowe. She said, “He was under a lot of pressure because of this, and he was very gracious, and never talked about my marriage to others. I have been grateful for a long time.” And Meg’s ex-husband Dennis also Once expressed similar gratitude, he said: "Crow relieved Ryan and me. Because of his appearance, we had to seriously consider whether it is necessary to continue our marriage. It was he who liberated us."
Meg Ryan's "I am grateful" is like Alice's last free and easy smile in "Evidence of Life", but Terry is left with idiotic waiting and self-knowing pain. It was because of Meg’s active confession that Russell Crowe said, "If I heard her say this a few years earlier, I would feel much better. The saying that I am a'bad boy' and the pressure that comes with it Since then. Everything comes from my relationship with her, and because of that hint, people have a preconceived bad impression of me. I think she has the courage to finally stand up and talk in front of the public This matter. However, time has
passed and life will continue. " Russell Crowe is touching because of her tolerance, and this man's tolerance to women is always heartwarming. In 2012, Russell Crowe and his wife officially announced their separation. Neither of them clearly pointed out the main reason for the divorce. Russell Crowe only stated in the statement that there were irreconcilable differences and contradictions between the two. Live together again. However, widely spread news is that Daniela Spencer’s change of heart was the main reason for the breakup of the two. Some media reporters photographed her with her dancing partner Damien when she participated in the Australian version of "Dancing with the Stars". Photos of Ann Whitewood's intimate date.
Who said that love is indulgence and love is temperance. Russell Crowe is moving because of his forbearance of the plot.
