I watched four episodes of THE TAKE last night, the Chinese translation is the home of the underworld. But I don't know exactly what THE TAKE refers to, but it does tell a story about the underworld.
Of course, the most shocking thing is FREDDIE, played by TOM HARDY. The state of madness, the unbridled self-destruction, seems not to be performed, but just a part of Tom HARDY's innermost heart, which is just magnified by this film. That's right, he just has that kind of magic that makes you forget that it's TOM HARDY performing, and it's as if TOM HARDY is the perverse character in the play.
In fact, it is not entirely true that he is unscrupulous and has no taboos. He is so ruthless, but when he learned that JIMMY was going to get rid of him, I felt more sad than angry, and I didn't see his real plan to kill JIMMY. In fact, both of them are the same. If they want to kill each other, they have too many opportunities to do it. But I believe that if the plot is set in the last two people fighting each other, Jimy will be the first to pull the trigger.
They seem to be in the drug business. FREDDIE's drug addiction is not shown in the film, but FREDDIE gives the impression that HIGH is more appropriate than DRUNK, as if it will collapse at any time, tearful but fierce brutal. But at the same time, he exudes a fatal temptation. His wife loves him to the point of madness, and the lover of the old man OZZY also gave his life for him~ Most women will have a moth-like impulse when they meet him. Except for JIMMY's wife, of course, but it's not the same in real life!
Although they are talking about underworld stories, their BUSINESS is a brushstroke. Instead, it is the conflicts and disputes between this family that are highlighted. I don't know why, as soon as Freddie's wife appeared, I had a feeling that "FREDDIE will definitely be killed by this woman in the end", although it wasn't "personally" killed in the end, it was not far behind. How to love a person to the point of losing oneself is hopeless, this woman can be regarded as the limit of interpretation. In addition, I think this one named JACKIE and Freddie, oh, no, Tom Hardy really looks like a husband and wife, from the eyebrows to the lips. . . On the contrary, the real fiancee in reality looks awkward, and the character in the play should be called MEGGIE.
Finally, let's talk about LITTLE FREDDIE, the youngest son of JACKIE, the pure FREDDIE II, calm and vicious. I am afraid this gene is really innate. So what if FREDDIE dies, the next FREDDIE is rising. . .
PS English has no subtitles, and English subtitles are not enough. It's very hard to watch. The understanding of the plot may be different from everyone's. In short, the benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees the wisdom.
