High-quality jumping narratives have a kind of broken beauty. Martin is still the most stable director on earth.

1. Typical Martin movies, solid and fast-paced informative scripts, luxurious lineups, social and historical scrolls, extremely sophisticated scene scheduling, and always-moving cameras... Martin is the director with the most stable output quality on the planet.

2. Martin is the only director who can attract the attention of the audience for more than two and a half hours. One is a fast-paced film with a large amount of material, and the other is that the camera is always in motion.

3. Martin's narrative is relatively jumpy, based on history, unrelated to logic, and lacking. For example, the protagonist seems to develop and grow overnight, and the community is supported. The result is that you can only watch the flowers without immersing themselves in the story. But the quality is too high, but there is a kind of broken and messy beauty.

4. Cross-editing of the main story and political history events has repeatedly appeared. Main line: gang shopping. Insiders: The people and the government fight. "Father told me that we are all born of blood and suffering. It turns out that our great city is also the same." The historical weight and connotation.

A picture scroll slowly unfolds in front of you, and you will be taken away by Martin forever, instead of rushing the director away in a hurry.

The darkest moment link is too unrealistic. Like "Jiang Ge", it is outrageous to let go without cutting the grass and roots.

The front is already exciting enough, you can no longer imagine how crazy the third act is.

Daniel Day Lewis is exactly the same as in "The Blood Is Coming" in terms of style and character, and he has come directly from the set.

    Jenny: When I was twelve years old, my mother was dead, and I was livin' in a doorway. He took me in. Took care of me, in his way. After they cut out the baby... well, he doesn't fancy girls that's scarred up. But you might as well know in your own mind that he never laid a hand on me until I asked him to.
