The whole work is developed from the perspective of the unemployed Louise. In an unintentional opportunity, he smelled the scent of money from the industry of news reporters in the evening. With an idea, he took unprincipled filming in various areas of Los Angeles, even Moving the corpse in search of a better shooting angle, but his news material was very popular, which made him do whatever he wanted at the scene of the accident. In the end, he successfully established his own shooting team, looking for bloodier and more authentic midnight news material on the night in Los Angeles.
The one who can catch the audience’s attention at once is Gyllenhaal’s Luis. The evil spirit in his body and his indifferent attention to the state of others, but his proficiency in interpersonal skills, deeply attracted the audience. Said that Gyllenhaal's performance propped up the style of the whole movie, and it was close to Heath Ledger's clown. In the film, he can put aside the morality, dignity, and even the law demanded by society for a shot. In his opinion, this is meaningless. Such a person has become a hot news person with development prospects. The bitter irony of the news industry, but it is true. Intervention, distortion, and the pursuit of dramatic exhibitions are indeed one of the usual methods of news reporting. Photographers who do not contain professional ethics may be more suitable for the appetite of TV stations. . Louis's success is the moral depravity of the media.
There are a lot of night scene shooting in the film. Thanks to the development of digital technology, the camera has a higher gray level. The night shooting perfectly shows the charm of Los Angeles. In the digital age, we have experienced Anthony Man’s sleepy night. Started with Nicholas Winding Refn with a glimpse of Sin City, and in this film, for Los Angeles, Dan Gilroy inherited the tone of "Drive". In the night, too many people think To act in a panic, LED light boxes dot the streets next to it, allowing people to see a certain side of evil loomingly, but this is not Gosling's desire to get rid of the troubles of the night, and Louise played by Gyllenhaal enjoys it. , Dreaming of dancing with evil, watching and taking pleasure in him, he does have this ability.
For Dan Gilroy, we can have better expectations. He is good at running his own business, starting from the story and taking the niche route. Although the scheduling is quite satisfactory, the setting of the characters is at least down to earth. I hope to see his second work soon and continue to bring new surprises to the audience.
