[When this article is updated, watch until the first episode of the whole drama. For the time being, I feel quite normal, and the soundtrack is good. 】
[I watched 2 more episodes later, I felt a little unbearable + not the type I liked, so I abandoned it for now. 】
Game of Thrones "Little Rose" actress Natalie Dormer came with a new drama. This drama is a new story of vulgar talk. The full name is vulgar talk: City of Angels.
The play's name comes with its own coordinates, and it takes place in Los Angeles. Compared with the first three seasons of cold temperament, the color difference is obvious, and the sunshine is really enough.
This story takes place in 1938, and the background combines Nazi influence from Europe, racial conflict between Native American whites and Latinos, and a mix of Mexican mythology. The elements involved are complex, and the gods and monsters combine with history. This is a setting that is not easy to predict the development direction. It remains to be seen when the broadcast has just started.
Natalie is the main selling point at first glance. Her real identity is about the evil representative of the dark series. She wears a long dress that touches the ground and has a slightly metallic feel. Everywhere she goes, there are deaths, and the scenes are often more brutal.
However, her first appearance was in the vegetable field, and the luster of her clothes was comparable to that of agricultural mulch film . Therefore, when she followed the steps of the devil and caused the vegetable field to spontaneously ignite, after thinking about the misery, she was fascinated by a little bit of evil interest.
Generally, the dark and pure white types always appear in combination, so there is another angel who appears in pure white, but you can see that she is not gentle and cute by looking at the headband on her head that can stab a direct person to death. style.
This is the "Holy Death", who is specially responsible for taking away the undead, and has no sense of the living. It may be understood as the more beautiful white impermanence...
The two little sisters are actually sisters, and they stared at each other passionately when they first appeared. At this time, I have to mention the male protagonist. At this time, he is still a hero, and soon encountered the standard settings of many protagonists. The father died in front of him... Pushed away by the "Holy Death" with a palm on his chest, he already had the mark of the marked protagonist at a young age.
After laying down this foreshadowing, in a blink of an eye, the male protagonist has grown up, and he is quite handsome.
He was considered to have achieved a "class jump" in a sense and became a very rare Mexican agent at the time. The rest of the family still chose to live in a slightly more traditional way. My brother was considered a trade union leader. He was fighting with the councillors who were planning to occupy the land to build the expressway. He ignored his brother's dissuasion and believed that his arms could not bend his thighs.
My mother is a maid and also masters traditional seance techniques. Compared with the two older brothers, the younger brother is not eye-catching, and there is a younger sister who has begun to fall in love.
The male protagonist will face some racial discrimination in the police station, but his partner is good to him, he takes care of him carefully and helps him fight injustice, and he also carefully teaches him in his career, which is equivalent to half a father.
The actor who plays the male protagonist's little brother is called Daniel Zovato. He has a good appearance and combines well with the retro temperament of the play. I once starred in the "God Stick Drama" here and now, and is a cute little character with good audience relationship. Unfortunately, that drama is a bit confusing because it pursues too much and the plot is a bit confusing. Although the niche reputation is not bad, it was not renewed.
Originally, the criminal police were investigating cases every day, but his partner later said that he had never fired a gun in his life, and that everyone should not have blood on their clothes, so if their shirts were dirty, they had to use spares.
However, the male protagonist's career as a detective has come up with a heavy taste in the case of killing the family. The scene of the case looks more brutal, with Mexican mythology, and the makeup of the deceased is a bit punk, which seems to point to racial conflicts. There was a message in Spanish at the death scene, "If you take our hearts, we will take yours."
The male protagonist wants to work hard for the American dream while facing a conflict between his police status and his Mexican heritage. At the end of the first episode, it was involved in another tragic setting. When the police supported the repair of the highway and had to confront the demonstrators, the evil representative came online again, bewitching the two sides to pinch each other, and the male protagonist was treating him like a half-father. When his partner was threatened with death, he raised his gun and shot his brother.
My brother is a tool person setting, I don't know if it will flash in my memory in the follow-up or simply not dead or something. If you are a friend who has watched crime for many years, you may feel very kind to this actor. His name is Adam Rodriguez, he has appeared in the CSI spin-off drama CSI: Miami, and he often does aquatic work. In the follow-up, he continued to work on the line of Criminal Minds, which started in the 12th season, although at the beginning, some friends suspected that he was an undercover agent sent by the enemy...
The lines also cued the CSI series, paying tribute to the old predecessors CSI, CSI: Miami and CSI: NY that preceded the end of the play.
Speaking of vulgar talk: City of Angels, from the first episode, this show has room for reverie, and you can pay careful attention to the follow-up level. The most direct highlight is Miss Natalie, who plays at least three roles by herself. Judging from the trailer and stills, it is likely that she has more versions of her identity.
In the first episode, she played the demon deity who was afraid of chaos in the world, the young German woman who hooked up with the pediatrician, and the secretary who looked a bit old-fashioned.
The deity has a black long dress and purple smoky makeup, focusing on disrupting the life of the male protagonist, often making the people around him go offline in sadness or cutting into chaos. The specific name of this character has not yet appeared. At present, it is only known that it is related to "Sacred Death". Sister, called "bitch sister" by the male protagonist's mother.
The main skill displayed is to whisper in the ear to deceive people, treat people like a mustard, and get full marks in psychology skills.
The paediatrician who was hooked up was also of German descent. He was committed to Amway's "German-American friendly relationship". He changed into his uniform at noon and went out to give a speech. The audience was mainly lunch passers-by, and he could also recommend German sauerkraut with smoked sausage. He has an alcoholic wife, two sons who are still young and obsessed with comics, and the hero's mother works at his house.
In the first episode, there was a detail that made a certain bandit feel a little bit of horror. This little boy who came to see the pediatrics was actually not a real existence, but a demon's avatar. After seeing the disease, he would be stuffed back into his body. This operation is somewhat surprising...
As for the secretary, he has always been a bridge between the German forces and the interpreter in charge of repairing the expressway. This character is a bit neutral in shape and very aggressive.
The lines mentioned two heads of state who were working hard in Europe.
Natalie's painting style is beautiful and strong, and she can control the ambitious evil to play such roles without pressure, and she can add points in terms of personal charm.
If you go deeper into the vulgar story: the city of angels, you may consider starting with the high-reputation Mexican-style cartoon Dream Hunting Travels to learn about the Day of the Dead.
However, compared with animations suitable for all ages, the "Holy Death" mentioned in this play is obviously much more hard-core, and it is not the same as the Day of the Dead, which is celebrated by the whole family in the warm route.
I also sprinkled a bunch of red rose petals (actually roses) on the corpse. The style of the painting is obviously more suitable for friends who like horror. There are still some exotic and evil classics, and the recognition is not low, but it may be easy Because of the huge cultural differences, it is not enough to get it.
If the same cultural background is well integrated, it may be appropriate to combine various works directed by Guillermo del Toro to experience the rich Mexican-style folklore.
As for historical facts, the story takes place in 1938. The relevant background is that the Crystal Night happened in 1938. Anti-Semitic tendencies in Europe were rapidly rising, and the Jewish people were about to start a miserable life for several years. In the United States, Roosevelt was re-elected in 1936. Under his leadership, the economy gradually got out of the earlier Great Depression, and politics began to gradually deal with the expansion of fascism. However, the large-scale war in Europe has not yet begun, and the United States will officially end its participation in the war until the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941.
A scumbag in history can only mention so much hastily. Welcome to all kinds of positive additions from Xueba friends~
The design of myth + historical process + racial background is still a bit worrying about the direction. However, the Mexican background mythology is relatively small, but you can try it.
Welcome to pay attention to the 57-line self-media bandit drama, a certain bandit will accompany you to ridicule and complain ( ̄(Worker) ̄)
