This feeling is a bit like the story itself. A murder case, a single case, was not a serial killer, it was not a torture, there was no religious connection, there was no mystery, it was the killing of an ordinary girl. Although unfortunate, it is no big deal. But after digging down layer by layer, the characters in this story are actually related to each other, the grievances and grievances are completely inextricable, and violence casts a shadow on everyone's heart. This murder is indeed just a coincidence, but those violent entanglements seem to make this tragedy completely unavoidable.
David said that since he escaped from that grove, he is no longer David, and he doesn't know who he is. He is gentle on the surface, but there is a resentful devil in his heart. So when he saw the pedophile in that car, David, who was usually so gentle, would beat him to death with his own hands.
However, it is not just David, but almost everyone has hidden such a devil in their hearts from an unknown time. Because they are only hiding, they can only hurt each other more deeply.
Whistleblowing, revenge, hatred, isolation, rebellion, concealment, anger, venting, punishment. In the end, it left many scars on everyone.
Just like the river that runs through this city, it never stops flowing under the calm surface, and this tragedy seems impossible to stop. Under one case, digging into the deep tragedy, this is the power of this movie.
In "Mystic River", not only the director Eastwood performed outstandingly, but the other actors were also outstanding. Especially the two Oscar-winning actors, Sean Penn for Best Actor and Tim Robbins for Best Supporting Actor.
Sean Penn has always been the best actor. The performance in this movie is considered top work in all of his movies. He showed strong explosive power and directly imprinted his anger and pain on the hearts of the audience.
The performances of Tim Robbins and Sean Penn are completely different. There is no explosion, but depression, always depression. But this kind of depression showed the dark shadow hidden in his heart.
IMDB scored 8.0 (64,820 people voted), and I scored 8.
