If you are a director

On the way to the theater, my friends and I have been listening to Tsai Qin’s [Forgotten Time]. Perhaps they were too impressed. Now when I think of [Infernal Affairs], what flashes back in my mind is always the two protagonists sitting in the video store listening to songs. Scene. The sword light and sword shadow bring suffocating air, but can't take away the warmth of a moment. It is said that the new film [The Departed], adapted from [Infernal Affairs], was released simultaneously worldwide. I wonder if any domestic friends were sitting in front of the screen when I caught the first bus as if to join in the fun. If so, then disappointment is probably certain.

There has always been a question as to what angle the great director Martin Sikoses will choose to show the inner world of the two undercover agents, especially the undercover policeman who is forbearing. Because the spiritual motivation of the characters in the original play obviously cannot be simply classified as professional ethics motivation, which combines courage and wisdom. In fact, his inner world is more often on the verge of chaos or even collapse. Of course, he is supported by a sense of justice like hatred and hatred, as well as fellowship and friend (psychiatrist) care. Faced with the different interpretations of undercover agents in different cultures, the director has not been able to escape the simple and directness of being a good American, and the characters have become two distinct faces of pros and cons. The real gangster loses ambition and is satisfied with the joy brought by the continuous destruction of the police operations; although the real policeman will also have inner struggles, all the audience sees is the scene of him swallowing neuroleptic drugs one by one, and the frightened bird Like hysteria.

More direct is death. When the scene of flying flesh and blood is repeatedly laid out, a sudden bullet no longer looks thrilling, no one will be sad when the decent is dead, and the villain will not be applauded when killed. So, this may remind other directors: you must be cautious when you take out your gun.
In addition to digging a gun, any superfluous addiction will lead the subject astray. When I saw the abrupt bed scene in the film, I became more firmly convinced that this part was one of the expectations of the American audience. With very little foreshadowing, almost instantly, the two entered a state of dry wood. Since then, the film has embarked on Hollywood-style humor and excitement, but it is witty and thrilling but less calm. My interest is getting lower and lower, and I even look forward to ending sooner.

So, if you are a director, then the best way to self-destruct your future is to shoot a martial arts; secondly, Martin Sikoses set an example.
