This is a sad story, a painful accusation, and tenacious persistence. Americans don't like stories like this. They definitely like Marvel, Forrest Gump, and some like "The Lament of Richard Jewell", because all movies have a good ending, a positive ending, and a conclusive conclusion. But this movie does not. It is not responsible for producing such things. On the contrary, it produces things that most movies do not have.
The Los Angeles Police Department, the Los Angeles government will not like this movie because it exposes too much darkness. In China, such a movie cannot be shown or even made.
The film's release in the United States also experienced twists and turns. Prior to this, it had been withdrawn repeatedly, withdrawn indefinitely, and even temporarily changed the investment company. The actors also had endless problems on the set. Johnny Depp was beaten up by the staff. At that time, he experienced the peak of the divorce storm, which may have something to do with the withdrawal. After the release, the response was mediocre, but Depp still contributed very good acting skills.
This is destined to be a movie that no one sees. Depp has long been outdated in the hearts of Chinese audiences, and his status in the hearts of American audiences will be even more unbearable. The movie tells a sad story, and the movie itself is also a sad story. I hope Depp can dedicate more excellent works.
