Still a country dream

The film is nearly two hours long, and it made me feel very sad all the way. The fate of the doomed criminals has made my heart tangled. Of course, this film is very good, but it is so uncomfortable for me to watch, I can only give it three stars. Star Heston is always too serious, just like the sheriff commissioner in the film. It's fair, but I don't like it.

The most moving part of the film is that it shows the softness of each criminal. Except Except for the hard-hearted private detective who was killed first, everyone else has their own kindness and softness. They seem to be poor little animals, with their own weakness in personality, struggling to the death in the sinful city of the city. In the jungle, you can't control your own destiny.

Like outside the whirlpool, I see the memory of the lost country life in it. The title of the film, Asphalt Jungle, shows the criticism of the city very well. The protagonist in it, A rogue with a bad reputation, but he will eventually return to the picturesque farm and die next to the horses he grew up with. They are not really bad people, it is just the sinful city that devours them .

The Asphalt Jungle quotes

  • Det. Andrews: She confirmed what Emmerich said, that he was with her from 11:30 till 3.

    Police Commissioner Hardy: How did she impress you?

    Det. Andrews: Very much! She's some babe.

    Police Commissioner Hardy: That's not what I mean!

  • Police Commissioner Hardy: Married 20 years, consorting with a woman young enough to be his granddaughter. It's disgusting! But nothing about Emmerich would surprise me. Educated man who uses brains to circumvent the law. Worst type of human being. No excuse for him.
