alone can also illuminate an era-“Iron Face Selflessness” is
set in Chicago’s Prohibition Period, “Iron Face Selflessness” describes the gang leader Ka Gang (played by Robert De Niro) at the time. The situation of lawlessness for ten years; and the authorities standing in the middle become only tortoises with helmets on their backs, fully demonstrating the tacit and stand-by attitude of the gangs controlling the whole situation; they even become "scavengers on the road before the black forces" ". So the upright and enthusiastic Special Commissioner of the Ministry of Finance Nass (Kevin Costner) was investigating a bootleg case. Because of the whistleblower of the insiders, he took out an umbrella from the wine box and used it as an umbrella. When the photo was published in the headlines of the newspaper, Nas became a laughingstock and a lonely hero.
This is a battle between soldiers and thieves. The thief's side is the boss of the gang leader, Kagang: when he was lying down and shaved while being interviewed, you could see that even the mayor would not have such a famous posture, and his towel was exposed. I's smiling face and his relaxed tone "I'm just a businessman," of course we will know immediately "this is not a legitimate business," he told reporters this way. On the side of the soldiers, let’s take a look: there is no elite team, nor is it a flying tiger team. It is Nas, who was left out of the picture after being betrayed, and the old police officer Jimmy (Sean Kang, who was moved and persuaded to come back out of the world) Nalley). Jimmy said to Nass: "If you are afraid of getting a rotten apple, don't look for it in the box, look for it on the tree." In this way, they found a guy named Shi Dong (played by Andy Garcia) with excellent marksmanship. (He was actually a gangster whose predecessor was Jisha Bateli) and an accountant named Wallace who had taken a badge. It was such a temporary combination that defeated the powerful and almost indestructible dark forces. It finally confirmed the law of courage and determination.
"Selflessness" is undoubtedly an action drama, but now I want to talk about some of the dialogue in the film. The performance of Sean Connery in the film is commendable, and each of his lines triggers the advancement of the storyline. In his first dealings with Nass, the irony of Nass made Costner trust and favor him and pulled him into the gang. Later, he said to Costner the most motivating sentence, "To arrest the Kagang," You use a knife, you use a gun. You get yourself into the hospital, and he enters the morgue. This is the Chicago way." Costner's answer was "I swear to arrest him legally." This undoubtedly became Costner's. Sworn. He said to the temporary team members, "Are you ready? Walked inside the door, and you walked into the trouble." Then the war kicked off, so Connery's role is undoubtedly a good mentor.
Robert De Niro's lines are also remarkable, especially in the film, where there are laughter and scolding. At the beginning, facing the self-satisfaction of the reporter's vassal, then there was a violent head-on conflict with Costner: De Niro roared fiercely, "You have nothing, you are just a bastard, you don't have a bookkeeper, what is in the court? None..." This sentence fully hinted and exposed the inside story of the secret collusion between the judiciary and him, and it was enough to show his arrogance. And what he said to the reporter enthusiastically behind him, "If you want to see who wins the prize, you have to wait until the result of the fight, and only one person is on the stage, then you will know who won." So his arrogance is not without reason.
The cast of this film is very strong, all of them are real talents. It is simply a competition of top actor skills. The shootout scene left a deep impression on people, and it also left a profound influence on the rising action movies. The author has seen at least 2 similar shootout plots. In the film, there are other scenes of enthusiasm. The old police officer played by Sean Connery smashed the door with an axe, hurting the subordinates of Kabang; this man was used by Kabang played by De Niro because of this mistake. The baseball smashed his head; Costner, after learning that the white-clothed man was the killer who had killed Wallace and Jimmy, pushed him down the tall building without turning back.
At the end of the film is the four-person photo of the temporary combination, leaving behind Nath and Stone. The death of Wallace and Jimmy symbolizes an old saying: get rid of a highest score, get rid of a lowest score...
