The afterthought of the movie "Changing Face" "Changing Face" is an action drama produced by Paramount Pictures in 1997, directed by Wu Yusen. Before that, Wu Yusen also filmed the very popular movie "The True Colors of Heroes". In my opinion, "The True Colors of Heroes" is his excellent work in Hong Kong, so this "Changing Face" undoubtedly laid his position in Hollywood. The movie "Changing Face" tells the story of FBI agent Arthur hunting down the horror killer Keist for 8 years. Keith killed his son, and the two have forged a feud. Once, in order to investigate the location of the deadly bomb, Arthur voluntarily took off his face, replaced Kester's face in a coma, and went into the prison to set up a line with the gang to set out the location of the bomb. But after he was sober, Case also changed Arthur's face and turned into an FBI agent, putting Arthur's family and career into crisis, and a fierce battle between good and evil ignited. After a thrill and almost lost his life, Arthur finally avenged his revenge, returned to the truth, and kindly took care of the son who belonged to Case. This movie can be analyzed a lot. First of all, when Arthur was sad to lose his son, he was destined to fight Case to the end. However, at the end of the film, he faced the still cunning Case, but Arthur was caught by him. He was deceived by his appearance, and he had moved his compassionate heart and wanted to let Case go. In the end, he was finally not allowed to kill him under Case's sneak attack, and he decided to take good care of Case's son. In my opinion, a series of actions prove that Case is gradually relieved and gradually let go of his vengeance. This also corresponds well to an old Chinese saying: "When is the time to repay the injustice." Arthur chose to take care of Kay. Part of the reason for Si’s son was that he also didn’t want Case to remain homeless after losing his father, because he knew too much about the pain of losing a son. Secondly, I would like to analyze Director Wu’s method. Through two unshakable enemies, they put on each other’s skins and live each other’s lives. This dramatic performance makes people feel very novel, and at the same time is the two main protagonists. It is funny and sad. The ridiculous thing is that they seem to live the same way in each other’s world, and the sadness is that the sheep in the wolf's skin is always a sheep, and the wolf in the sheep's clothing has never changed the evil inside. Although the destiny of dismantling the gas bombs to save thousands of people is actually just to remove obstacles, when the time is right, they will return to the original and dominate the world. It's a pity that "Stealing chickens won't make you lose rice." Instead, his brother and wife were killed. The final analysis is the topic of change and the same. Although Arthur’s skin and identity have changed, and even when he was a little unsure of who he was, his heart of loving his wife, daughters, family and country has never been. changes happened.
So I think from here, I can understand: no matter how our lives have changed, how our own appearance and identity have changed, and what is always the same is the love in our heart.
