The relationship between a father and son is told in the suspenseful story. In fact, the character of the son has disappeared at the beginning of the story. The whole story relies entirely on the relationship between the father and daughter-in-law starring Jack Lemmon to explain the past story. For example: the father-son relationship is bad and often quarrels; the son and the father have conflicting political views on the left and right; the father and the son have not many opportunities for communication; the father does not approve of the relationship or marriage between the son and the daughter-in-law... Basically the story of a father Speak out of the picture.
This is what I think is the best part of this movie. The protagonist is actually a pair of father and son, but the father and son have no rivalry at all. The son only lives in the flashback, but the relationship between the two is as lifelike and vivid on paper. The father used the microphone to look for his son at the meeting, saying "just two of us", his eyes were wet and moving.
The best drama is bound to change. At the beginning of the story, the image of the father is unkind, rigid and cold, but it is a typical image in the traditional bad father-son relationship. He quarrels constantly with his daughter-in-law and lacks the interest of life; later he and his daughter-in-law become another kind of "father-son" relationship, warmth, kindness...the power of drama Row after row, although the suspenseful color is not strong, it is just as good-looking. Coupled with the constant armed conflicts, curfews, and the tension of the drama, it is self-evident. Although this film is not a typical genre suspense or political thriller movie, it seems a bit literary, but it is actually calculated accurately, not a dull third-rate drama. In some places, you can also see the director's intentions with the screen, such as the scene on the poster, the dress The son in the t-shirt is standing on the balcony. The background environment is the sea and the beach. The atmosphere should be comfortable and relaxed, but was interrupted by a huge cold helicopter. The contrast effect is remarkable. The horror atmosphere is conveyed through the screen, and the effect is good.
The narrative skills of the 1980s were very powerful. I feel that the narrative of this play, including the way of explaining the protagonist at the beginning, is completely playing games with the audience, which is much better than Nolan's skills later. Although the protagonist is missing, he often appears in the picture. At first I thought it was a parallel narrative, but unexpectedly it was a flashback. Although the technique of this play is not obvious, it permeates every aspect.
Politically, the entire city is also metaphorical, speaking Spanish. Speaking of this, all dramas in China have a strong political connotation, because most of the cities in our film and television dramas are virtual, at most metaphors...So it is too easy to make political thrillers, and we are always scared at any time.
