The first time I heard about this movie was because of Sean Penn, who seemed to be a guy with superb acting skills.
I thought "Mystic River" was a thriller, but it wasn't.
Looking at the picture, you should be able to guess that this is the story of three men. To be precise, it was a tragedy.
This is a sad movie. Because it's real, it's so real that it's crueler than reality.
The whole film is uniformly cold tones, gloomy, dim, and silent.
Jimmy’s pain after losing his daughter, the resulting hatred, the shadow of Dave’s sexual abuse when he was young, and the unforgettable depression as a police officer Sean...and, a deep sense of guilt and fear , The loss of trust, the insecurity that cannot be touched by happiness...This
film scatters the misfortunes that may be encountered in life in a disorderly order; I suddenly wondered whether the so-called "butterfly effect" is always born for tragedy, is it it? It is the source of the tragedy; when they were young, the three of them played simply and happily together, plain and happy. If it wasn't because Dave was taken away by those people, if it wasn't Dave that took away, if the three of them were worn away together... God Now, I almost fell into the trap I set!
I dare not say more, I am afraid that I will fluctuate emotionally. After all, he is not a person with strong self-control ability.
Highlights 1. After Jimmy lost his daughter, he once talked to Dave on the rooftop. Language, action, expression, background, night. The always tough man actually shed tears. The wound in his heart was destined to fail to heal, and the death of his daughter pushed him to the brink of collapse. Sean Penn’s acting skills are fully revealed in this paragraph.
Highlight 2·Dave’s wife came to Jimmy. Tell him Dave's weird and terrible things. And suspect that Dave killed Jimmy's daughter. During this period, she behaved too well. (It seems to have won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress)
Wonderful Shot 3. Dave is watching a vampire movie, but his eyes are hollow, so gloomy. But that was the fear in his heart, the fear of the past.
Highlight 4·End. Full of the deepest sorrow. The tragedy is so penetrating and the power of heavy suffocation, it makes my shoulders unable to relax. Fathers who lost their daughters, men who lost friends, wives who lost their husbands, and sons who lost their fathers clapped in the daily parade.
Maybe we can only experience the permanent damage of the broken past to life through the ever-fading shadows on their faces and their struggling hearts. What kind of past you have is doomed to what kind of future you have. This sentence seems very useless, but I have to say it.
Well, the plot is better not to say more. At the end of the analysis, I was afraid that I would be crazy.
Repost some tidbits, it's easier.
