realism

The most chilling line in this film is actually the big boss played by john houston. The villain of the whole film said at the end,

most people never have to face the fact that at the right time and the right place, they're capable of anything...

According to our words, people, real TMD can do anything.

The demon seduced his 15-year-old daughter, who became pregnant and gave birth to a girl.

The most classic part of the film is when Donna Wei tells the actor the truth,

she is my daughter, she is my sister,

she is both my sister and my daughter.

The great thing about "Chinatown" is the final ending, where the wicked succeeded.

The story is not complicated. The big devil opened a home for the elderly, bought land under the names of these old people, and then diverted water from the reservoir to the land in the desert. At the same time, he poisoned the local orange farmers’ wells and expelled them.

How high will the price of land in the desert with sufficient water sources rise!

The protagonist asked him, "You are rich in the enemy's country, what do you want to do to make money," the

old villain said impassionedly, "Future, build the future!" ! !




When Laozi saw this scene, there was really no way he could not think of anything else,

those "successors" in the real world,

yes, what they wanted to create was the future. . . . . .

Therefore, the righteous people can be killed, the disadvantaged residents can be driven away, the price can be raised in enclosures, and the truth can be concealed.

right!

People can do anything!




How classic the script is and how lofty the status of film history is. These are not what I care about.

In fact, when I watched it, I thought of Master Ke’s "Adjustment",

these old stalks of the American emperor, and the heinous incidents of the last century.

Traveling through time and space is now in full swing on another part of the earth, or in other countries.

Great movies are both time-crossing and realism,

because the 1974 movie, the realism of 1974, may become our realism half a century later.

Human nature is so difficult to evolve, because


people can do everything.

    How much I love Jack Nicholson, I just admire how such a man can make a neurotic big bad pervert from young to old... and so on. BTW, the screenwriter of this film is Robert Downey Jr's daddy.

    Fortunately, Polanski insisted on the dark ending to keep his position as the standard bearer of the new film noir.
