The spoiler for this poster is very serious. It seems that the director did not intend to hide the real murderer from the beginning. It is easy to find, but can you find out where he is showing his feet?
Now, let me pick up some intriguing details and fragments from the movie clips.
First, let’s deal with the relationship and plot of the
characters. Characters:
Dean Keaton: the leader, very convincing.
Fenster: Slick, but when it comes to business, he is also a smart man
. McManus: a good guy, just crazy
Todd Hockney: blasting expert, loyal to friends
Verbal Kint: Mr.
Drool, keyser Soze ): Big boss behind the scenes, brutal and vicious
David Kujan: Policeman, plot promoter
Edie Finneran (Edie Finneran): Lawyer, Keaton’s girlfriend
Kobayashi: Fictitious name but it does The person, the lawyer, and Caesar’s messenger
Redfoot (Redfoot): Fictitious name, existence or not is unknown.
Plot: The
story is divided into two timelines, one is before the bombing, the other is after the bombing, and the previous one. Kent as the narrator recalls the past, the story is true and false, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false; the latter also uses Kent as the center, but there are survivors, David, etc. as promoters. In the first timeline, Kent’s memories are divided into two parts, once in the interrogation room, and once with David alone. The first time focuses on the encounter and acquaintance of the five people, and the second time focuses on the five people’s embarrassment after the end of the identification. Activities.
Now, the spoiler starts~~
1, movie titles Caesar wearing a gold watch, and a gold lighter - Caesar portable objects, but also can be said to be a status symbol characters, titles paving the way, certainly not attentive partner did not pay attention
2, five After he was put in the same prison, Keaton once said this:
In fact, it can be seen from this passage that Keaton had already felt that things were revealing weird, but unfortunately, he couldn't find the answer. In the end, he attributed it to the ineffectiveness of the police department and deliberately attacking them.
So, is this kind of encounter deliberately done by the boss Caesar? ~~~ Contact the upper and lower contexts, and you should be able to find out the answer.
3. When David asked to see Kent, he was rejected for no reason. The reason was even more outrageous: After the district attorney came here last night, he saw Kent like eggplants that were beaten by cream. The Lord Mayor also came, and the governor also beat him today. I’ve asked about it on the phone, and things have become political. In short, this guy has a very hard backstage~~
Well, the resourceful "Mr. Slobber" really should not be underestimated, but obviously, such a suggestive conversation David didn't care at all, because what he "understands" is Keaton's cunning, and the little man-Kent, Naturally it is not within the scope of his consideration.
4. When I first entered the office, there was a close-up shot of Kent observing the surrounding environment, such as cigarette boxes, notes on the wall, etc. These shots overlapped with the ending shots. If you look closely, this person’s pensive eyes revealed With his keenness and wisdom (also made up ambush for his next nonsense)
(This clip is very good acting, a person’s eyes can hide a lot of things, the director gives a lot of close-ups on facial expressions, especially the eyes. , The same is true for the second half of the movie).
5. In an unfamiliar environment, facing unpredictable police officers, and unpredictable conversations, Kent pulled from thirsty to disgusting nose. What do you think he wants to do? ? When the police officer went out, he said: "Tension is a killer", do you really want to say this to David?
6. In order to show that he is smart than you, David told the story of three suspects in the murder case. He said with certainty that the one who fell asleep was the murderer the next morning after putting the suspect in confinement overnight. I don’t judge this kind of approval philosophy, but it undoubtedly tells us-David is an extremely confident and even conceited figure. He believes that his previous standards of judgment are all detrimental. Facing Kent’s incompetent He didn't pay attention to the character at all, so in the subsequent words, he showed his disgust and hostility towards Keaton without reservation, which also gave Kent an opportunity. In addition, such a statement also brought Kent a certain amount of vigilance and defense, I am not a rat, the contest between the two officially began.
7. Kent talked about Keaton’s deep affection for his girlfriend, which made people shed tears (at least for the police officer). Of course, for David, Kent was completely nonsense, because his consistent impression of Keaton was cunning and ruthless. Cold-blooded. During this period, the director had a close-up close-up of Kent's face. Kent's eyes kept turning (this man is ghostly). This is a signal, which means that he will tell a new story next. .
8. When David said categorically: Keaton is using your stupidity to make you consider yourself his friend, and when you are willing to be used by him, the lens gives Kent a close-up of his face, the corners of his mouth are slightly raised, and his eyes are more intense. It's a sneer.
9. Then, the lawyer Kobayashi wanted to appear. Kent was not facing David at this time.
There are many more things that can be picked up in this drama, but it is nothing more than the director’s shots, the plot of the screenwriter, the memes of the starring actors, and a careful taste. Some things can only be unspeakable, but for the last sentence: "The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled …was convincing the world he didn't exist. And like that he is gone." It’s still very intriguing. This is what Kent said to David, the most Caesar, and he did indeed "disappear Without a trace", but I think its profound meaning is more than that. Many plots in the movie happened, but at the end you still can’t be sure whether it really existed. For example:
1. Is the family experience of the devil Caesar true? What is the significance of the director's blurring of the picture?
2. In Kent's narrative, Keaton is portrayed as an affectionate boyfriend. How true is this?
3. Redfoot's name is fictitious, what about the person? If it exists, where do you see it? If it doesn't exist, what about going to Los Angeles to sell the stolen goods? Was the death of Sol in the underground garage realistic, and who brought Kobayashi to it?
4. Caesar gathered four people to pave the way for him to kill the informant, but why did he have to kill them? He didn't plan to keep alive. Could it be that the grievances between them were because the four of them stole Caesar's things without knowing it?
The final ending of the movie is very exciting. First, look at the arrangement of the director and screenwriter: After the body of Arturo Marquez (Arturo Marquez), an informant from the Ministry of Justice, was discovered, the storyteller became David, revealing The last mystery is that there are no drugs on the ship. The arrangement is just right, because we know that the "Kent who did not get on the ship" in the story will definitely not know the story on the ship. If the plot is to develop more rationally, the only way to find another is to find another one. Insider.
Finally, look at Kevin’s rich emoticons: David kept talking to himself, categorically saying that Kent was deceived by Keaton, so the ugly facts naturally have to be sad. On the one hand, he doesn’t want to believe his friend’s betrayal. , On the one hand, hatred and the police's cruel notification, and the heartache and pain of being treated as a fool, why me? Why me? I am stupid, I am cripple. The accusation under tears made people moved, so David showed a look Ran Yu Xin's expression, his eyes still showed a little bit of pity and worry for the little man.
This acting skill is also absolutely amazing.
