Hmm...Because there are so many blanks in my mind after seeing it, I should do something nasty first, and copy a section of the story introduction on the cover of the movie:
Jimmy Marku (Sean Penn), Dave Boyle (Tie Robbins) and Sean Devi (Kevin Bacon) are inseparable good friends. They all live in a poor neighborhood in Boston. They play games and grow up together. This beautiful childhood friendship is So simple and strong, it seems that they are destined to be good friends for a lifetime, until one day the life of one of them deviates from another track, their life is changed forever-when Dave was 10 years old, when Dave was playing once Unfortunately, he was kidnapped and sexually abused. After being rescued, Dave created a barrier to all his friends and relatives. The friendship of the three good friends was gradually separated and broken. Things changed, and they eventually lost contact.
Twenty-five years later, three childhood friends were once again linked together by another tragedy. Jimmy’s 19-year-old daughter, Katie, was brutally killed, and the police officer in charge of this case was Sean and his partner Whitney (Lawrence Fishburne), and he seemed clueless to face it. In this case, he has to face Jimmy, who has lost his beloved daughter and is eager for revenge, but what Sean can't predict most is that the clues that appear in the case point to Dave's suspicion of the murderer! The psychological shadow caused by the kidnapping as a child has been lingering for many years, leading to the failure of Dave’s marriage career. No one knows that under his gentle and peaceful appearance, there are hidden personality gloom and depression...
3 A childhood friend, now one is the biggest suspect in a cruel murder, one is the police detective in charge of the case, and the other is the father who is dedicated to avenging his daughter with his own hands. The three people have stretched into a tense triangle relationship. Everyone is facing Conflict and struggle, everyone is forced to face the true self in his heart, everyone must also look back at their unknown past, whether it is good or painful.
I copied a bit too much...
This lineup is a luxurious performance. Sean Penn, Tim Robbins and Kevin Bacon have similar scores. Old Eastwood has arranged a very broad space for everyone to play. En Pen’s success is due to the outstanding performance of the other two wrists. Especially Tim Robbins, people have been looking forward to his light flashing here after "Shoshake Redemption". This time, the middle-aged man he has been sexually assaulted by him is very dazzling.
The subject matter that the old Eastwood touched is extremely sensitive. "Millions of Baby" was originally thought to be a sports inspirational film, but I did not expect the last 30 minutes to make people shocking. The plot took a turn for the worse, and it went straight to the super sensitive of euthanasia. topic. In recent years, the Michael Jackson Luantong incident has made child sexual assault a topic of concern for the whole world. This film has become a representative work for exploring this topic.
Of course, the courage to touch and explore sensitive topics will naturally be rewarded. Oscar has a tradition of favoring this type of film. The elder Eastwood won the best director and also fulfilled Sean Penn. It is worth mentioning that, like "Millions of Baby", the soundtrack of this film is also written by Wood, and people can't help but marvel at his talent.
However, I still have some dissatisfaction with the plot. I have a feeling of being played with by Eastwood. Regarding Katie's death, apart from the previous 9/11 alarm message, the director did not leave the audience any clues to the truth. It’s the joy to lead the audience on the wrong path of the truth and walk wildly, until Tim Robbins was shot and all the dust settled, and it was discovered that the homicide was rendered so suspicious, but the truth was disappointingly simple. , The three powerful male stars fought their acting skills for such a truth, and the aftertaste seemed to be played on. However, Kevin Bacon’s last sentence to Sean Penn, "Will you still send her 500 yuan a month?" It was very flavorful. The relationship between Kevin and Jimmy was suddenly elevated to a subtle Circumstances, the former gangster and the capable detective who stopped, the irresistible acquaintance of childhood and the nodding acquaintance of the present, the victim’s father and the policeman seeking the murder, etc., these relationships are all merged in the end of the film. The two are watching The relative glance of the parade made people feel an inexplicable alienation and tacit understanding.
A dark river, mysterious and long, conceals the unknown truth and creates unexpected stories.
