Violence never wins

What is a straw dog?

David said to his wife Amy in the play that at the time of the sacrifice, the dog tied up with straw was worshipped like a god. It was highly respected at that time. After the sacrifice, it was left aside and burned to ashes, just like those hunting in small towns. The men who play ball and cannon, or refer to Charlie and his companions.

If... this one is full of stories. If there is no A, there will be no B story, which means a kind of causal fate.

If Amy didn't dress so coolly and ran wet to highlight her bumpy figure (of course, this was not the fuse that caused her to be QJ), Charlie would not feel that Amy was seduce herself.

If Amy is not arguing with her husband, and runs to the window on the second floor and undresses Charlie and others (this provocation is really no zuo no die rhythm), will Charlie and others behave in the back? This woman's head is really not ordinary paste!

And after the pet cat was tortured and killed, Amy deliberately spoke up in front of Charlie and others, so that David's man's dignity was lost. After the conflict broke out, David, who was “worried” all the way, showed a man's side. The director showed all the way from sunshine to haze, from seemingly peaceful town life to dramatic violent crimes. The rhythm flew in an instant, the coach shot through the front of the sheriff, and the climax of the film immediately followed.

David, who is a screenwriter, seems to be a talented soldier, but the rabbit bites when he is anxious. He is in the position of protecting the weak and defending his homeland. David can only stand alone, even using the trick of hot oil. Already frightened, Amy, who was aggressive on weekdays, suddenly showed a rat-carrying position. As a result, everything was bloody and fragmented...

The film has several descriptions of the musical background. The first time when the couple arrived at their ancestral home, David played the old man’s vinyl record, and the atmosphere was bright and sunny; later several times when David created Beethoven and Charlie Xiugu Pop music conflict in the warehouse. The last two times, one was when Amy was QJed, and the other was when David was stubbornly resisting five gunmen with little success. Music has played an important role in portraying the character and setting off the surrounding environment.
